Plot

Juan, Oscar and Franco Reyes are three brothers who were orphaned at a very young age and swore to protect Libia, their younger sister.
Hence, when she confesses to them that she's in love with Bernardo Elizondo, a married man many years her senior, they become furious and will only allow the relationship if the two marry. However, Bernardo never returns and, subsequently, Libia dies in a terrible tragedy.
Consequently, the three men are filled with rage and swear to avenge their little sister's death. Therefore, they arrive at the hacienda of the Elizondo family ready to do anything and, with the help of Eva, the housekeeper, they get job as bricklayers.
There, they meet the Elizondo sisters: Sofía, Sarita and Jimena. The Reyes decide to seduce and then abandon them, thus fulfilling their vow of revenge. Yet, through daily coexistence, they discover that the three sisters are victims of the tyranny of their mother, Gabriela.
