 This is a
story that begins in 1966 in
the Arab Emirates. The powerful Emir Ali causes his son Gamal marry the
Princess Nadia coming from Afghanistan
for the sake to have the heir of the family. The intrigue is that Gamal is not
Ali’s blood son. His son Abdul died during war actions. However, Ali presses Gamal to marry and
plans to arrange a majestic ceremony for his wedding event. Eventually Gamal marries
Nadia but he loves another girl and everyone knows about it. Gamal once loved
an Argentinean girl named Virginia
but the Arab traditions forbid to love non-Muslim girl and they had to part. However,
Gamal still loves Virginia
though they cannot live together.
After getting married, Gamal becomes the
Sheik and his wife Nadia envies her husband to every woman. In the meantime Ali
gets sick and intends to make Gamal Emir for his place. Gamal’s brother
Mokhammed and his wife are against this decision for they are eager to reign by
themselves. Due to their plotting and evil plans Ali dies; they also kill Gamal
and imprison his wife Nadia. Gamal’s son Ismael is under the threat to be
killed until he is saved by their faithful servant Rashid who escapes with Ismael
to Argentine with different traditions and culture. There, Rashid pretends to
be Miguel Arias Maldonado while Ismael turns into his son Gabriel. With the
lapse of time Ismael grows to become the famous lawyer in Argentine though he
is not aware that his father is not his blood father actually and that his name
is Rashid not Miguel. Ismael is sure he is Gabriel for he cannot remember
anything from childhood. Gabriel soon meets Ana who comes from
San-Martin and they fall in love. Gabriel has no idea that Ana is Virginia’s
daughter.
