Plot
The Telenovela follows Andrés Ferreira, who was born from a poor woman and went with a rich woman, and Brayan Galindo, who was born to a rich woman and went with a poor woman. After 30 years, Andrés went to the pensión where Brayan lived and met his true family; Brayan went to live with his real mother and his new fiancé, Fernanda Sanmiguel (who only wants him for his money, and is the lover of Andrés's cousin, Mateo). Brayan is now the owner of the Ferreira enterprise Mundo Express, and it is later revealed that Mateo, Brayan's cousin, is trying to steal his money as well as MundoExpress.
Cultural aspects
The name of Brayan Galindo reflects an irregular adaptation of Brian to the Spanish. It reflects the cultural inferiority complex of many Latin Americans, who adopt foreign names thinking that it is an indication of socioeconomic status.[citation needed].
The social consequences of massive dismissals of 200 employees as a result of a reconstruction inserts a dramatic effect into the plot, and create a cold image of the business world and Andrés Ferreira.
