Illiterate, impoverished flower vendor Aguamarina meets an attractive wealthy young man in the fashion industry who flirts with her, causing her to lose her job when she responds by throwing the water from the flowers in his face. As penance, he finds her a position as a maid in the home of his wealthy girlfriend and her family. The usual novela twists and turns ensue, with both Aguamarina and her suitor being led to believe the other was responsible for the tragedies in which each lost both parents. Eventually, Aguamarina goes into seclusion to protect herself from the wealthy (but deranged) employer after becoming pregnant. While away, Aguamarina is helped to become literate and to learn modeling, returning as the masked mystery model everyone wants to hire.
