Synopsis
Carmina Somarriba (Adriana Ozores) and Emilio Somarriba (Luis Bermejo) are the heirs of the Galgo Group, a family business specialized in pastries, chocolates, and children's food. The industry crisis, the imminent arrival of sugar legislation, and Emilio's lack of leadership as the president of Galgo since his father's passing, contribute to the company's downturn. Gonzalo Díaz (Oscar Martínez), Carmina's husband, who has worked alongside Emilio for many years, has his own plans for the company. However, a sudden and unexpected decision by Carmina sets off a family and business earthquake that will also affect their children Blanca (Patricia López Arnáiz), Guzmán (Marcel Borràs), Jimena (María Pedraza) and Julián (Jorge Usón). The power struggle will drive them apart, and Carmina will have to choose between saving the company or her family.
