Bella is a very beautiful woman who lives in a banana village. Her great love is Antonio Segovia, a man from a conservative family. One day Bella is kidnapped by a powerful businessman Roman Montero and taken to live in a mansion to be his concubine.
Bella is waiting to be rescued, but no one believes that Roman has
kidnapped her, especially, her fiancé, who being hurt, believes that she
has gone with Montero for convenience. As if life had never hit her
sufficiently hard, Bella gets another blow when her grandfather dies and
leaves her alone in the world.
Being abandoned and shamed, she has no choice but to give herself to
Roman, but loses her virginity with someone else in order to not give
him that satisfaction. Then, to avenge on him, she decides to satisfy
all those men who want her for gold and jewels. So Bella becomes a
millionaire and once when Roman is obliged to return to the capital for
work, she returns to the village Agua Hermosa with the illusion of
meeting again her beloved Antonio.
But Antonio under family and social pressure can not forgive her and
marries another woman. Bella, feeling rejected and devastated, decides
to revenge: she creates in this conservative village a brothel where she
is the only prostitute. There she gives herself to all rich men to
torture love with jealousy, that he despised her. All men can enjoy it,
except him.
But the great love between Bella and Antonio is too strong to be
forgotten by them. Eventually they become lovers, ignoring the fact that
he is now married to Evangelina and has several children that will
generate more rejection and hatred towards her for the most part of the
village. But Bella won’t be disturbed and even she will have a daughter
with Antonio. These strained relations between them will mark for many
years their lives and the lives of the villagers, especially the life of
Andres Mendoza, who will be the eternal umpire and also will have
another daughter with Bella.
