Melinda Uy is a billionaire widow whose life is a rags-to-riches
story.
The daughter of a Chinese immigrant and a Filipino
small businessman, Melinda had been a victim of discrimination
in the local Chinese community, being only half-Chinese.
Melinda
was only in her late teens when she got married to Alfonso Uy,
the scion of 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.
The couple
strikes out on their own, starting a small business from scratch
as they raise a family of their own.
But, as Alfonso’s parents
predicted, a string of misfortunes hounds the marriage.
The
business they put up enjoys only a brief period of prosperity
before it goes bankrupt.
And just when they are slowly recovering
from their financial woes, fire breaks out in their residence,
wiping out everything they own.
But the worst is yet to come.
By this time, the couple already have four children, namely
Carol, the eldest, followed by Stephanie, Audrey and Walden.
But the kids would not enjoy the company of their father
for long.
Unexpectedly, Alfonso dies of a massive stroke.
A widow at a young age, Melinda along with her children is
compelled to live with her in-laws who maltreat her.
One day,
Melinda, along with eldest child Carol, returns to the house
of her in-laws from a visit to her mother.
Melinda is shocked
to find out that she is no longer welcome.
She is driven away
after a failed attempt to take Carol away from her.
Little
Stephanie, Audrey and Walden are left behind in the house of
the in-laws.
Melinda’s efforts to take custody of them come
to naught as her in-laws manage to hide the children from her.
Melinda goes through hell in her attempts to take back her
children.
But Melinda’s determination is no match to the power
of her in-laws.
Short of giving up, 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.
Growing up away from her mother,
Stephanie learns to hate Melinda, thanks to the constant brainwashing
of Aunt Olive who finds pleasure in demonizing Melinda.
Melinda
experiences a good turn of fortune in the years that follow.
She becomes one of the most wealthy and powerful women in
the business community.
At about this time, the fortunes of
her once powerful in-laws are on the decline.
But Stephanie,
now a young adult who’s already taking over the businesses of
her aunt Olive and grandparents, is about to get married to a
shady character, the dashingly handsome Daniel Chan.
Melinda
is now ready to revive her claim on her three children, but years
of separation make it seem impossible for her to win back their
love. But the news of Stephanie’s marriage to Daniel Chan alarms
Melinda, forcing the powerful widow to act, thus putting her
on a collision course with Olive and the in-laws.
This time,
Melinda is determined to succeed in having back her grown-up
children. And this time, events transpire to make Melinda prove
to her estranged children how much she really loves them.
