Carlos and Elena have secretly married. He belongs to a noble rich family, first son and heir of Italian count D'Angelo, and she is a poor, struggling actress and singer. After the wedding, he decides to tell his family about the marriage and flies to their home in Italy, but the plane crashes and he dies. When his brother Pablo goes to Spain to identify the body, he meets his now-widowed sister-in-law for the first time and discovers that she's pregnant. She asks only that the family finance the child's education. Years later, the child is now a little girl named Marisol, a sunshiny happy girl with a heart of gold and a melodious voice who is about to turn 10 years old. Her mother and uncle visit her at her boarding school in Malaga once a year before summer break. Her mother has told her that she is a rich, famous actress so Marisol would not be shy with her friends about her origins, but that means she can never take Marisol with her in the summer so that she never learns the truth. But Marisol's grandfather, count D'Angelo, who hates Elena for "stealing his son", wants to meet his granddaughter, so he asks Pablo to bring Marisol to Italy for the summer. When she arrives, the old man and his servants think she is a happiness-bringing angel. As the summer goes by, the old man comes to love her very much and starts feeling distressed over the thought of parting ways with her and starts planning to never send her back to Spain.
