Anton's wife and stepmother of Chloe, Lucas, and Kitty. She is about 25 years younger than Anton, but is matured beyond her years. Despite the age difference, she falls in love and marries Anton. She embraces her role as step mother of three children and supportive wife of a successful and ambitious man, whose first marriage failed because of his ambition. A career woman herself, she successfully balances her priorities, and brings much happiness into Anton's life and his family's. Her biggest challenge is Grace, her husband's ex wife, who is obsessed and determined to destroy their marriage, pushing Andrea's fears of infidelity and insecurities about her place in Anton's heart. This has caused friction in their marriage. At some point, she almost gave up. But a chance conversation with an ex-fiancé opened her eyes to the important piece she was giving up, and that was the family she built with her husband and his children. * [[Ian Veneracion]] as Antonio "Anton" Noble IV. The main male protagonist. Devastated after Grace left him and their children, he picked up the pieces of his family's broken hearts. To fill the vacuum left by Grace's departure, he became a hands on Dad, re stacked his priorities, and place his career and business second to his children's needs. Because of Anton's nurturing, the children adjusted to a happy single parent household. After their annulment, he became the country's most eligible bachelor, but no one captured his heart except Andrea. Despite various challenges from their individual families, their relationship prevailed and was finally accepted by everyone, except Grace Silverio, his haughty, self serving, self centered ex-wife. Anton is determined to protect his second marriage from Grace's manipulations and obsession to reclaim him. He's a kind hearted man, who finds it difficult to put his ex in her place, although he has tried to many times. Despite all, Grace’s manipulative tactic wore down Andrea, succeeding in breaking up the marriage, but he never gave up. Just when he and his children were taking off on their private plane to HK to fulfill a long promised vacation with his children, Andrea returned. They happily reconciled, and the series ends with Andrea giving him the news of her pending pregnancy. * [[Iza Calzado]] as Grace Silverio, the main female antagonist. Anton's ex-wife and the mother of Chloe, Lucas, and Kitty who she abandoned three years ago. Grace is a spoiled heiress who felt she needed to be free from the domineering and controlling personality of her husband. In reality, she met someone in LA. Despite Anton's pleas to return to Manila, and the risk of losing custody of her children, she insisted on an annulment. She left behind a 15 year old, 13 year old and a 5 year old. Three years later, after two failed relationships, Grace decided to return home to reclaim her husband and children. She realizes that she is still in love with him and tries everything to drive a wedge between Anton and Andrea and her children, in the hope that she can win him back. Her obsession becomes a major concern for her children. Her last ditched effort to win Anton by confessing that she loved and wanted him back failed. Anton rejected her, but she stole a passionate kiss which was unfortunately witnessed by Andre. Anton's rejection, and Chloe's reprimand accusing her of destroying their family a second time, drove grace to commit suicide. She survived and returned to the US to heal. Anton promised the children would spend summers with her. * [[Enchong Dee]] as Andrew Agoncillo, Andrea's para-triathlete half-brother who tries his best to fit in with Andrea's family. He works in Andrea's event management firm, and falls in love with their client, Bianca Silverio, Grace's niece and gets her pregnant. Despite the insults and objections hurled at Andrew by the wealthy Silverios, the young couple are determined to prove their love. Andrew and Bianca have the full emotional support from his family. Their marriage thrives and they have a young boy. * [[Ronnie Alonte]] as Christopher "Tupe" Dimayuga. Chloe's boyfriend. He is a brilliant scholar, who interned at Anton's company, and earned the respect of his colleagues and teachers. Unfortunately, his lack of maturity to handle first love and its responsibilities, has driven him into situations that made him lose his scholarship and employment. Chloe loves him deeply, tries hard to understand him, and struggles to preserve their relationship, even if she was forbidden by her father to embark into a boyfriend relationship with him. Unfortunately, their disobedience has caused various conflicts and heartaches for both. As Tupe drives the relationship towards a downward spiral because of his immature decisions, Chloe is understanding now what it takes to keep a relationship. She is opening her eyes to the large maturity gap that exists in her relationship with Tupe. After seeing the experience of her mom and dads failed marriage, and the separation of her dad and step mom, she broke up with Tupe. * [[JK Labajo]] as Lucas S. Noble. Anton and Grace's only son who disliked Andrea in the beginning and dreamt of making his family complete again. He learns to respect and love Andrea, who made sure she and Anton would not get married until Lucas accepted their relationship. He is the child who was most sensitive to Andrea's feelings during the first months of their marriage, particularly when Grace tried to ruin it in many ways possible. He loved his mother but understood that Andrea completed his father's happiness. He wanted his mother to move on. He was also very disappointed and disillusioned with Grace after he learned she had a boyfriend after his parents' separation. He remained Andrea's strong supporter to the end. * Hannah Lopez Vito as Katherine "Kitty" S. Noble. Anton and Grace's youngest child who is supportive of her father's relationship with Andrea. She genuinely loved Andrea as she would love her own mother. She showed this when she used a family portrait with Andrea as her "treasure" at a family camp activity. Kitty also loves her mother, but she has accepted that her mother left her once, for reasons she can't fully understand, and could very well leave her again. She is very much affected by Andrea and Anton's quarrels caused by her mother's obsession. She asked her siblings to help her do something to fix it. She is terrified that Andrea would leave their home like their real mother did. * [[Julia Barretto]] as Chloe S. Noble. Anton and Grace's eldest child who filled the role of "mother-figure" to her siblings when Grace left them. She was in a relationship with Fort, but actually likes Tupe. She eventually chose Tupe, but Fort remained her best friend. Chloe's priority is to ensure her family remained intact and her father's happiness was more important than her own mother's. She was happy about Andrea's relationship with her father, and she was instrumental in Lucas' change of heart for Andrea. She struggled with her father's disciplinary actions regarding her relationship with Tupe. Andrea successfully bridged this challenge. Chloe also saw through her mother's antics towards Andrea. She asked her mother to back off. Grace's obsession remains a big concern for the children, and Chloe has taken it upon herself to communicate their dismay to their mother. They loved and respected their mother, but they were very clear they valued the importance of Andrea in their lives. They loved their stepmother very much and wanted to make sure their mother would not destroy the family they had built with her. === Supporting cast === * [[Tirso Cruz III]] as Antonio "Tony" Noble III, Anton's father who became a renowned scientist from poor roots.
