Overview

The truth is that 21 years ago, Debbie and Norman Almeda hired their housekeeper Adele to serve as surrogate mother to carry their fertilized eggs in her womb. What originally started as a Surrogacy Agreement falls through when Adele suffers a miscarriage. With no viable fertilized eggs left and desperate for a child, Norman is aware that Adele is in love with him, so he seduces her and gets her pregnant again. They continue the charade while Debbie still believes Adele is carrying her biological child, unaware of the miscarriage. Adele suffers a change of heart when she realizes she cannot give up her own child. She escapes to Davao and delivers to girl triplets. Meanwhile, Norman hires men to get their child back as he searches himself. Unaware that he has triplets, Norman tracks Adele to her home and takes the infant from her. Adele’s mother arrives shortly after, distraught over Erika’s kidnap. By a cruel twist of fate, Adele loses two of her triplets that day. 21 years later, in Benguet, Agatha is tired of her comfortable life and plans to leave for Manila. She is angry at her mother for spending most of her growing up years working abroad and is not ready to have her at this time. Meanwhile, Adele is anxious about their relationship, seriously contemplating quitting her job in Dubai and staying for good so she can spend more time with Agatha. Elsewhere in Tanay, Carrie wakes up from her coma and seeing no one, reads her own medical chart. She is, after all, a physician.
