Plot
There is no greater force than a mother's love.
Vitória struggles to protect her family when she finds out that her father-in-law, Manuel Mendonça, is a criminal who is willing to sacrifice family ties for the sake of his wealth and power.
After the tragic death of her husband, Vitória tries to shield her children from their grandfather's influence and prove the crimes of the tyrant Mendonça.
While defending herself from an attack by her brother-in-law, she ends up being arrested and loses custody of her children. Two years later, she gets out of jail determined to get Afonso, Beatriz, and Francisco back. But she is far from imagining that Manuel has managed to turn her children against her and that he will do anything to keep her away from the family.
With the support of João, a brilliant lawyer and her first love, Vitória will fight to win back the love and trust of her children and expose her father-in-law, putting the Mendonça empire at risk.
