Life sentence for an Angel is to live in the road of mistakes, and his great mistake will be love to a forbidden woman ... love that will determine his sentence. Angel has been living in difficult conditions since his childhood. His mother (Esperanza) fell in love with a man but their love wasn’t mutual. Martin was never really interested in her, her pregnancy or her baby. For Martin’s family it was a shame to have love affair with the housemaid. Poor Esperanza gave birth to the baby in a bus station in New York with the help of Sandro - the only person who was moved with her pain.
Years later, this street became Angel’s second home, where everyone
knew him as Devil for the fact that he was a thief despite his good
heart. He got involved in a gang of thieves and took part in large
criminal acts, but he was caught and imprisoned. Under such
circumstances he met Manuela.
Manuela was a lawyer which represented his case in the court. She
helped to make him free and gave him an opportunity to rectify. And
this brought changes in their life.
Having returned home, he discovered that his mother was
indebted to the leader of the band he worked for. Leon paid medical
expenses of the ill woman when her son was in jail and the only way for
Angel to repay his debt was to work for the criminal again. He got a
task to rob a millionaire.
As far as it was impossible to refuse the requirements of Leon, his
only option was to organize the robbery. So he worked out a detailed
and sophisticated plan that was so characteristic of his personality
... but fate played a trick with him. Angel could not imagine that the
real head of the operation was Manuela's fiancé, fiancé of the woman
who won his heart. So finally he found out that he was a man who hated
his own father and he was the murderer of his best friend.
