Plot
Rodrigo and Rebecca’s idyllic life is shattered when the former returns home to receive his inheritance from his late father, Julian. Failing to hear any news about her lover for more than a week, Rebecca decides to follow him. She then becomes devastated to learn about Rodrigo’s untimely death. Shortly after, Rebecca meets her grisly end, leaving her daughter at the hands of Joey, who names her Eva. Years after, Eva runs for her life after armed men attacked her foster parents.
Meanwhile, Inno grows up struggling to earn the affection of his mother, Stella. Blamed for his brother’s worsening condition, Inno promises his mother to do everything to save his brother’s life. As fate would have it, the two troubled souls cross paths in an unlikely destination.
After escaping from certain death, Eva finds herself under the care of Rosa and her brother-in-law Abel. The young girl then meets Rosa’s sister, Adessa, a mentally ill woman who is yearning for her child. Meanwhile, Carmen promises to let Hernan marry Stella should they succeed in putting up a pearl farm in San Narciso. Stella then wastes no time in pulling some strings in her eagerness to get the nod of the Cortes matriarch. However, her selfish deed comes at the expense of Rosa and the other fishermen.
Hernan ties the knot with Stella, giving the latter a chance to wear the Cortes’ clan’s prime jewel, the nostalgia necklace. However, their marriage faces a major hurdle. Years later, Inno grows into a strait-laced man, a complete contrast to his happy-go-lucky brother, Oliver. Meanwhile, Eva works in a jewelry store in hopes of giving her family a better life. Later, her determination is put to the test when trouble comes her way.
After quite some time, Inno and Eva once more crosspaths in an accident at Binondo. This will make them remember their fruitful youth. Once nostalgia hits, will it intertwine the both them?
