In the early '60s, a relatively rich Greek man named Constantino Mykonos and his 17-year-old daughter Artemisa arrive in Chile, more precisely at the Godán household ruled by Elías, Constantino's cousin and childhood friend. Artemisa is immediately terrorized by his cousin, the spoiled Adriana Godán and her schoolmates. Adriana is jealous of Artemisa's beauty and charisma, and is also obsessed with no woman letting her surpass her since her father looked down on her for being female.
After Adriana stages an incredibly cruel trick that includes photos of
a naked Artemisa taken without her knowledge, and Constantino dies in
an accident, Artemisa can't resist any more. Despite the request and
support of her best friend Margarita and her husband the photographer
Klaus Müller, Artemisa flees to Quito, Ecuador. Twenty years later, she
returns as a cold and gorgeous socialite and businesswoman, determined
to face her past. She doesn't know that Adriana, unable to let go of
her own jealousy, is already planning to steal Artemisa's hard-won
fortune and either send her to a North American jail on false charges
or to lock her up in a mental institution.

Trivia
The overall idea behind the telenovela is adapted from Friedrich Dürrenmatt's play The Visit.
Decades later, another telenovela named "Romané" would adapt Dürrenmatt's play more or less freely too, though giving it a somewhat happier ending. Ironically, both telenovelas feature actress Claudia DiGirólamo as the leading ladies (first as Artemisa, later as the Roma Jovanka in Romané).
Adriana Godán is still one of the most popular villains in Chilean telenovelas, as well as one of actress Gloria Münchmayer's most popular roles ever
