Plot
The Buenas are the epitome of an ideal household; prominent, educated, and very wealthy. Arthur, the father, is a successful investment tycoon and his wife, Bettina, engages in all the big social events. Their beautiful children Celine, Darling, Edwin, and Faye, all study in exclusive schools. Everything seemed perfect with the Buenas until Josephine Carter enters the picture.
Josephine poses as a new investor who later claims she was ruthlessly scammed by Arthur. It turns out that not only was she Arthur's former assistant, she was his disgruntled mistress as well. Now she plans to exact revenge on Arthur and ruin the Buena family in the process. Arthur is sentenced to jail and the family eventually lose all their wealth and holdings. Later, Bettina suffers a nervous breakdown and is institutionalized.
Without guardians, the four Buena children experience bullying, financial hardship, and the cruel realities of life. As the eldest, Celine is obliged to work to feed her siblings. She finds a job under Harry, a good-hearted businessman who admires Celine's determination. He helps her bring the Buena family back on track. However, as her life was just starting to get better, Celine discovers that she is actually adopted and that her real mother is Josephine, the same woman who ruined and devastate her perfect life.
