Summary of La Cruz de Marisa Cruces
Marisa Cruces is a country girl who comes to Mexico City to look for work as a secretary. She lives in a boarding house where she meets Alfredo Roldán, an architecture student. Alfredo falls for Marisa, not knowing she´s having a secret affair with Guillermo Ortega, her boss. When Marisa gets pregnant, Guillermo fires her and ends their relationship. Far from her family and with no one to turn to, Marisa gets a job as a servant of a childless couple who offers to help her. However, when Marisa goes into labor, the couple insists she have her baby at home. When Marisa comes around, after her son's birth, she finds the couple has gone abroad taking the baby with them. Brokenhearted, Marisa returns to the boarding house where Alfredo takes care of her. Marisa accepts to become his wife but she also decides to keep her past from her husband. Several years go by, Alfredo becomes a well-known architect, and Marisa is now a wealthy matron, the mother of three children. Yet her life is disturbed by the presence of two people from her past: Guillermo Ortega and Cristian, her lost firstborn.
