Plot
Nea Cruz Fontanilla (Claudine Barretto) and Jasmin Cruz Fontanilla (Bea Alonzo) are sisters, although they haven’t seen each other since Nea was five – when Nea’s father Larry (Noni Buencamino) abandoned her and her mother Elena (Jacklyn Jose) to live with the rich Yolanda (Carmi Martin).
Years after their traumatic separation, it is only a matter of time before Nea and Jasmin’s paths cross again. Raised in above-average circumstances by Larry and Yolanda along with her stepsister Hazel (Shaina Magdayao), Jasmin is the resident strange, shy girl in school – the target of the pranks of Oliver Ynares (John Lloyd Cruz), the mischievous younger son of the prominent Ynares clan.
An “old money” family, Ynares patriarch Roden (Tirso Cruz III) and matriarch Susana (Hilda Koronel) have given up on the unruly Oliver, they do have their hopes set on the bright, intelligent Ivan (Diether Ocampo) to fulfill their dreams of having a politician in the family. But unknown to Ivan's family - and his beautiful, rich, and devoted girlfriend Karri Medrano (Angelika dela Cruz) - Ivan has a dark secret that he kept hidden from those he loves, but now threatens to destroy the life he has carefully built.
But while Jasmin and Oliver’s imperfect lives are about to take an interesting turn, an unexpected change will come from Nea, who is now dead-set on destroying the life of her estranged father, Larry. But what brought about this change in Nea? And how will it affect the Ynares family?
Cast and characters
- Claudine Barretto as Nea Fontanilla, is brimming with generosity, full positive attitude. She always sees a silver lining in cloudy skies. She is the eldest of the Fontanilla sisters. When fashionably dressed, Nea can totally "knock down" other beauties. That is why Oliver's older brother Ivan can't help but also fall in love with Nea. She is the type who does not accept any dole-outs, but she is very talented person who knows how to create opportunities for herself in order to make a living. Nea is a fighter who keeps her dignity intact.
- John Lloyd Cruz as Oliver Ynares, he is Ivan's youngest brother and the least favored son. A very down-to-earth guy who is also quirky and bubbly. He is the exact opposite of Jasmin, the lass he has fallen for. His craving for bulalo brings him to Nea. And it is because of Oliver that Ivan and Nea meet.
- Bea Alonzo as Jasmin Fontanilla, the sister Nea never stopped looking for. She lives with her father, Larry. Jasmin grew up believing that her mother is Yolanda Gerochi (played by Carmi Martin) and the only sister she has is Hazel (played by Shaina Magdayao). Despite the many tragedies she has had in life, Jasmin remains to have the pureness of her heart and she does not harbor ill feelings towards people who have wronged her. Jasmin is withdrawn; she would rather blend in with the crowd than stand out.
- Diether Ocampo as Ivan Ynares, son of a business tycoon and the older brother of Oliver (played by John Lloyd), he's the favorite son. Ivan runs their huge family-owned enterprise that has stakes in logging, furniture-making and resort development. He is the childhood sweetheart of Karri Medrano (played by Angelika dela Cruz). Eventually, Ivan falls in love with Nea. Ivan is an achiever; he is smart and intelligent like his father. But unlike his father, Ivan is a kind-hearted businessman. No woman could resist the oozing charm of this true-blue gentleman (which is ironic since in the middle of the novel he's reveal to be the rapist of Nea, very unlikely to be dubbed as a gentleman).
- Shaina Magdayao as Hazel Fontanilla, she is the youngest and half-sister to both Nea and Jasmin. Outspoken, perky and fiercely protective of her sister, Jasmin. She is the favorite daughter of Yolanda. Sheltered Hazel believes that the world is a good place. She would like nothing better than for her half-sister Nea to accept her.
- Angelika dela Cruz as Karri Medrano, this socialite and is described as the wind beneath Ivan's wings. She is the childhood sweetheart of Ivan and was favored to end up marrying him. Karri is the daughter of a sugar magnate from the Visayas and the unica hija of her proud parents, Perry and Rosemarie Medrano.
- Jaclyn Jose as Elena Cruz, like her daughter, Nea, she is a survivor even after she was abandoned by the man she loved. Her bond with Nea is strong and unique. Elena whats to know if giving away her other daughter Jasmin was the right decision. She died before Jasmin realized that Elena is her biological mother.
- Nonie Buencamino as Larry Fontanilla, he's the father of Nea, Jasmin and Hazel who has a weak character. He left Elena for another woman (Yolanda) whom he saw then as his quickest way to escape poverty. Larry worked as a driver for Yolanda's family.
- Tirso Cruz III as Roden Ynares, is the father of Ivan and Oliver and a very shrewd businessman. He is married to Susan Ledesma. He favors Ivan, his eldest son for reasons that would be revealed later on. He committed suicide after Ivan was convicted of raping Nea.

She is the mother of Ivan and Oliver. Because of her husband's lack of time for her, Susana stumbled and tainted her wedding vow to Roden.
- Carmi Martin as Yolanda Gerochi, a wealthy woman who maltreats Jasmin frequently because it reminds her of Larry's first marriage daughter. She is the mother of Hazel, Jasmin's half sister.
