Ana's family desires this marriage in order to use Gabriel's money to help them get out of debt.

Ana and Gabriel are set to be married by the Catholic Church until Gabriel's father decides to trick Ana and her family into believing that Gabriel is not his real son, that Isaías is his true son, and therefore Gabriel will not inherit any money. Ana must make a decision, to marry him anyway, knowing that he is poor, or break off the marriage. This "test" strains Gabriel and Ana's relationship because she truly loves him and feels betrayed by his dishonesty, but Gabriel now believes she only wanted to marry him for his money. They are legally married so they decide to live together to see if they can save their marriage and as part of the deal with Fernando, Gabriel's father, Ana must pay back the money that Gabriel had used to get her family out of debt. In the meantime both Isaías and Regina try to break Gabriel and Ana up in order for each of them to be with the other person.
