 Alejandro Almonte is a illegitimate son of a rich man who recognized him as a son just before his death. He comes to Puebla to see the factory his father left him. There he meets Magdalena, daughter of the general Ivan Mendosa. Magdalena is in love with a poor soldier, Jose Luis. The Mendosa family are economically ruined and because of that Paula, the mother of Magdalena, proposes a deal to Alejandro: to give him Magdalena if he pays to save their mansion. When she finds out that Magdalena is in love with a soldier, she achieves that he is taken to prison and Magdalena marries Alejandro.
Jose Luis manages to get out of jail and goes to the mansion of the
Mendosa family after the wedding. He asks Magdalena to come with him
but Alejandro finds out and takes Magdalena to his ranch. On the ranch
also live: Rosario, who is the real Alejandro's mother, Maria, the
foreman's daughter, who loves Alejandro and his friends: Cipriano and
Victor. Alejandro has the liberal ideas and he supports rebels movement
against Porfirio Diaz's regime. Jose Luis starts working as a foreman
at the ranch. He marries Angelica, who has an incurable disease, but in
his heart he always loved Magdalena. But Magdalena loves Alejandro now.
When Alejandro finds out the truth about the new foreman, Magdalena is
pregnant, but Alejandro doesn't believe it's his child and he abandons
