Miraculously, Patricia is not dead and is rescued by a man called Pierre who heals her and protects her with the help from his friend, Jacinta (Adriana Ricardo). Once Patricia recovers, she decides to investigate who killed her husband and who raped her (she just remembers a horse chess piece hanging from the gold chain around the rapist's neck), but she cannot find out anything except that her lands now belong to somebody else. Having no place to go, Jacinta takes Patricia to live with her and she starts to learn the hard skills of leading cattle and handling horses, which is very common on the Eastern Plains of Colombia. The same day that Patricia decides to come back to her public life in Puerto Dorado she meets Sebastian (Andrés Juan Hernandez) who is just arriving to town after several years studying in Bogotá. Patricia has an argument with Sebastian showing that she is not the stupid and innocent woman she used to be.

Although she does not recognize it, Patricia is strongly attracted to Sebastian ignoring he's the son of the man who raped her and killed her husband several years ago.
