They eventually ended up with a child syndicate. Ivan gets busted by police and Yuri escapes. He is adopted by Mirdo (Ronnie Lazaro).

Years went by. Lorrea in jail, and meets Lorrinda inside. Lorrinda asks Lorea if she wants one day of freedom, as Lorrinda, through her special privileges, gets out of jail during nights. She agrees but then the cell was bombed by Brigitta Vertero (Bing Loyzaga), who is in love wih Henri Argos.

Lorrea assumes the life of Ingrid, through Boris' prodding, in a hope to find his son.

Helaena falls hard for Yuri (John Lloyd Cruz). They become boyfriend and girlfriends, but Yuri realizes that his "pards", kayla (dimples romana), is the one he truly loves.

But she falls for Boris Arcangel and marries him.Lorrea goes into hiding with a smashed face and heartbroken as she thinks yuri is dead.

eight years later lorrea resurfaces when she discovers yuri is alive and she goes to dimitri's place to look for him. She works as morgan's gardner for a while before her true identity is discovered. She then marries dimitri who tries to make up for the havoc he caused in her and yui'r life. Brigitta also dies at this time (she took poison in jail after morgana rejected her) .

Everybody tries to escape, and they were ambushed. Henri dies. Kayla is hit. All hell broke lose when Henri is caught as the drug lord, leaving his kids astonished and penniless. On the fateful day that Helaena went to Yuri's house, she overhears yuri saying to his adoptive father Mirdo that kayla is the one he loves and not helaena.

Yuri and Mirdo are kidnapped separately. A voice instructs Lorrea to shoot Mirdo in order to save Yuri, with Yuri seeing the whole thing. Mirdo dies. Lorrea pulls the trigger but it is actually soembody else that hit Mirdo. Yuri vows revenge. Lorrea is then blown up.

And has an alter ego "Mr. X", which Helaena has talking sessions with.

Yuri, is now a lawyer. He was adopted by Dimitri, who felt guilty about the whole thing. Kayla is in Europe. He meets Katrina and they fall in love. Katrina, recognizes Yuri but Yuri does not.

Lorrea is now lea. Half of her face was burned by the explosion. Dimitri marries her. Yuri treats morganna as his second mom. Boris married Morgana, without Boris knowing about what Morganna did.

Finding out Lorrea is alive, Boris starts to fall in love with her again, to morganna's dismay.

Before ending, Lorrea's face is fixed through surgery and now Dimitri, his mentor's wife, who had also been close to him, is actually the one who killed Mirdo his adoptive father.

In the end, it is revealed that Lorrinda is alive and had amnesia. The senate hearing where Lorrea is being charged with drug trafficking proved to be the most riveting. Yuri prosecuting his own mother. Anilov defending.

Helaena and Anilov finds out that Yuri is Lorrea's son. They tell Yuri but Yuri does not believe. He thinks that Lorrea is still ingrid Medrano / Red Butterfly and since that both Lorrea and Lorrinda had no birth certificates, he thinks she is lying. (the birth certificates had long been pulled out by Lorrinda to erase trace on her). Lorrea is locked in a cell. They have a fight and Lorrea's hand is scratched. Lorrinda appears before Yuri and Yuri says it's not possible. He looks at her hands and sees no scratch. He then believes that Lorrea is her mother and that she in fact has a twin.
