 With 22 black pearls to cover her costs, a mysterious woman abandons a
baby at an exclusive school for girls. Perla grows up there, along with
her best friend, Eva. One day, Tomas arrives and seduces Eva, leaving
her pregnant. The two friends decide to have the baby and raise it
together, never letting anyone know who is the child's real mother. But
on their way to meet Eva's family, there is an accident and Eva dies.
Perla survives and since she was found with Eva's purse, everyone
believes that she is her. Perla decides to play along so that she could
keep the baby and also make sure that he received all to which he was
entitled. But arriving at Eva's family's house, she finds that no one
wants her there--not her "grandmother," her "uncle," or her "cousin,"
Malvina. She also discovers that the slime who seduced her friend is
Malvina's boyfriend! But Perla takes control of the family's cosmetics
firm, determined to secure the best future for her "son," Charlie. And
there she must deal with the intrigues of her family to wrest the firm
from her hands, the schemes by Tomas' family, who happen to be the
firm's most tenacious business rivals, and also the pressing attentions
of Tomas, who cannot understand why Perla resists his charm and
therefore chases her with every ounce of ardor he possesses. But Perla
is not as immune as she seems and she doesn't know how close to
love - and her real mother - she really is.
