Plot
Dr. Philip Salazar and Atty. Lucas Buencamino share a deep childhood bond rooted in their fathers' close friendship. However, tragedy strikes when Lucas' father, Congressman Javier Buencamino dies during surgery performed by Philip's father, Dr. Severino Salazar. This incident fuels a bitter feud between the two families, exacerbated by a substantial inheritance left by Congressman Javier to the hospital founded by the elder Salazar.
Lucas' mother, also a powerful politician, launches a campaign to reclaim the inherited funds, orchestrating events that tarnish Dr. Severino Salazar's reputation as a "Killer Doctor." They manipulate circumstances and character assassinations leading to what appears to be the elder Salazar's suicide. They pay Chief Investigator Balmaceda to cover up evidence of murder and close the case.
Philip, devastated and seeking revenge for his father's death, plots to murder Lucas. However, his plans go awry when an accident meant for Lucas claims the life of his wife, Olivia. In fact, Philip saves Olivia and nurses her back to health, capitalizing on her amnesia by convincing her she is his wife, Claire. Satisfied by Lucas’ loss, Philip takes Claire to America to start a new life.
Lucas, grieving for Olivia, marries his best friend and law school colleague, Melinda Avecilla but secretly mourns his lost love.
Meanwhile, the Salazar General Hospital faces financial trouble due to the Buencaminos' relentless smear campaigns and takeover attempts. Philip returns to Manila to aid his father's co-founder, Dr. Joaquin Serrano to save the hospital. His plan for a short visit becomes permanent so Claire travels back to the Philippines to support her husband Philip.
Despite warning Claire not to interfere, she champions Philip against the Buencaminos. Their love deepens, but Philip fears the return of her memories. He also witnesses the emotional toll Olivia's presence takes on Lucas but keeps his distance.
Claire begins to recall fragments of her past, including vivid dreams of domestic violence and flashes of Lucas' face. As she investigates her life, she discovers that Philip's stories were fabricated and that she is, in fact, Olivia De Amor-Buencamino, the long-dead wife of her husband's arch enemy.
Furious at Philip's lies and betrayal, she keeps this knowledge secret, determined to uncover the real truth about her person, the events that conspired before the accident, her life with Lucas and Philip's presence at the crash site.
Claire bides her time, pretending all is well, until she can finally unravel the mystery and reveal the truth to Philip and Lucas.
With Philip tricked into the fabricated contents of a folder about his father's death, he mistakenly realizes his pursuit for justice was for nothing.
Following his decision to go back to America with Claire, she sets her plan into motion and stages her own kidnapping. As the people around her worry, and the two husbands race to save her, she finally reveals the truth to everyone that she is Lucas' wife. She is immediately rushed to the hospital after she abruptly faints.
As Olivia wakes up, she tells the truth about her accident and puts the blame on Philip for her staged kidnapping.
With this, Philip gets arrested for his crimes while Olivia gets out of the hospital and tries to rebuild her old life with Lucas, much to Victoria and Melinda's dismay. Fueled by anger, she desires revenge to those who wronged her, and confronts them one by one.
Inside the hospital, Emil also gets arrested, leading he and Philip with a strained friendship in prison. Olivia returns to the Buencamino mansion after she withdraws her case against the hospital, prompting Melinda to move in the mansion once more.
With a war between Melinda and Olivia on set, the truth about Olivia's father, Luis, starts to unfold. Haunted by the past, Victoria meets with Santiago Quijada, a corrupt police officer responsible for committing Victoria's favors.
Santiago and Victoria try to cover up the past while Olivia investigates her father's death. Inside the prison, Philip's friendship with Emil starts to heal as Philip rescues Emil during a prison fight. After all the commotion, their fellow inmate Pablo starts to speak up about the truth of his father's death.
As Olivia's investigation reaches a conclusion, she digs up evidence from her memories and gets Victoria arrested.
In an attempt to save Victoria, Melinda tries to destroy Olivia's reputation to lose her credibility in court, including revelations of her staged kidnapping. With Philip and Victoria's trials reaching a verdict, both of them are proven to be not guilty.
Devastated by the loss, Olivia's life gets even worse as she gets confined into a mental facility.
Amidst all the maltreatment Olivia faces in the facility, she meets another patient named Isabel, a mother waiting for her son, Elias.
Outside of the facility, Lucas' rage gets the best of him as he sets Philip's house on fire. After yet another tragedy, Philip and Emil try to convince the facility about Olivia's sanity.
Victoria's wickedness doesn't stop as she orders Santiago to kidnap and make Olivia suffer. Things don't go to plan when an unexpected person saves her.

Unfortunately, after It's Showtime's blocktime agreement with TV5 was axed on June 30, 2023 due to the expiration of the deal and Tito, Vic & Joey's departure from TAPE, Inc., which led to their transfer to TV5, before being moved to GMA Network's sister channel GTV the day after, in which the casts were not allowed to appear on the said show to promote the series. Instead, they promoted both shows on TV5's new noontime show, E.A.T. (now Eat Bulaga!)[6]
