Mariana truly fell in love with Marcos’s brother Philipe, even though she never ceased to love Marcos. But their relationship was already cursed, because of the mysterious circumstances of Marcos’s death. 

Even though Mariana is not the one responsible for the killing, Philipe still thinks that she is the culprit. In such a situation, Philipe tried to trap Mariana and hand her over to the police while she was trying to flee the country. But that did not happen as due to some extreme luck, Mariana was able to bypass the airport security and leave the country with her brother and nephew.

Who killed Lorenzo?

At first, we thought that it was Gloria who must have killed Lorenzo, but she was telling the truth, and she was not the culprit. She can do heinous things to others, but because of her extreme motherly instincts, she is not capable of harming children. And that is why she actually dropped him off at his house, like she promised.

Gloria realises that she is not a good mother and that if she stays with Nico, she will again destroy his life as she did with her older children. But Gloria also understands how Natalia herself is also not a suitable mother. So, to break this whole chain and give Nico a good life, she forces Natalia into a car and locks her up. Then, she drives that car over a cliff, effectively killing herself and Natalia. 

What happens to Nico?

At the beginning of the last episode, we see a man coming to Spain from Canada. We have never seen him before, and then he goes directly to the place where the car crash of Gloria and Natalia occurred. He even throws a white flower down the cliff. He is the adult Nico who most likely visited Spain so that he can know more about his past.
