Plot
Beatriz is a cheerful, hardworking girl who was given up at birth to Padre Amado by her mother Maruja as she feared she was near death. However, Maruja never died but survived, and she ignored her daughter's whereabouts. One day as a teenager, Beatriz encounters a group of delinquent boys who decide to play a bad joke on her. One of these boys, Arturo Arismendi, disguised as Dracula, decides to rape her. Desperate, Beatriz escapes and runs to the house of a good woman named Miguelina who takes her in and treats her like her own daughter. From then on, Beatriz is haunted by the image of the man in the Dracula costume. Later on, Arturo meets Beatriz and realises who she is, but doesn't reveal the truth to her while she doesn't know he is the man who hurt her and ends up falling in love with him. Meanwhile, two con women Inés Santaella and Erika her niece who is about the age of Beatriz, decide to take advantage of the Castañeda family by making them believe Erika is their long lost daughter. At the same time, Beatriz ends up living at the house where Maruja decides to educate her without knowing she is her real daughter.[5]
