The daughter of a Chinese immigrant and a Filipino businessman, Melinda is discriminated by the local Chinese community for being only half-Chinese. Melinda was only in her late teens when she married Alfonso Uy from the wealthy Uy clan. But Alfonso’s parents frown upon the marriage, believing that it is cursed. Disappointed with Alfonso’s choice of wife, they disinherit him. As Alfonso’s parents predicted, a string of misfortunes hounds their marriage. Later on, Alfonso dies of a massive stroke.
A widow at a young age, Melinda and her children are compelled to live with her in-laws who maltreat her. She is driven away and her efforts to take custody of her children come to naught as her in-laws manage to hide the children from her. Melinda vows to someday take back her children as she channels her efforts to succeed financially, while continually monitoring the condition of her three children from afar.
