Amelia’s refuge by Marcela Citterio
Sometimes, in order for your worst nightmare to not come true, you have to turn to the person you least expect.
On a fateful afternoon, Olivia Sanchez Ortega, daughter of one of Peru's greatest fortunes and wife of the country's future president, Juan Carlo Pastor, is murdered.Juan Carlo, absolutely worried about the life of his only daughter Amelia, calls the only person who can help him at this moment: Camila, his first love. One he decided to give up to marry a powerful woman who was key to his career, is the one who has just been killed.
Camila and Juan Carlo meet again. He needs to protect his daughter because she could be the next victim. Camila, without hesitation, without showing resentment for his abandonment, agrees to help him.
Amelia, devastated by the loss of her mother, suddenly finds herself immersed in a new life. They agree that she enters the Andes Orphanage as a new orphan: Emma, a girl who has just lost her entire family. No one will know who she really is.
A nightmare is about to begin for Amelia. And since nothing leaves her father tranquil, she's not going to do it alone. An apparent orphan named Dylan, who supposedly doesn't know her, will be her bodyguard. Yes, a 17-year-old who trained since he was 11 years old, and whose real name is Liam Garcia, will be the secret custodian of Amelia, now Emma to everyone.
Emma and Dylan, two orphans who apparently have nothing to do with each other, will be “the new ones”. They will have to pretend not to have known each other for a second before joining. And he will have to figure out how to keep an eye on her, without the others suspecting, and endure jokes because of course they will misinterpret his closeness. Amelia is devastated. Not only has she lost her mother, but she has been separated from her lifelong friends and her boyfriend, who doesn't need to know her real whereabouts either. She is going to find refuge in two people: Siren, the young woman who controls all the girls in the institution, and Thiago, the handsome boy who seems to have a big heart. What she doesn't know is that these two people she will trust the most will be the ones who betray her.
When Sirena finds out that Emma is really Amelia Pastor, she will feel so deceived and humiliated by the lie, and will do everything in her power to make Amelia suffer locked up in the walls of this Orphanage.
And Thiago, when he learns that the girl who seems simple and humble is actually the daughter of politician Juan Carlo Pastor, and that she has a multimillionaire boyfriend, will want to sell information about her whereabouts in order to earn money and escape from the orphanage where he has been living since he was 5 years old. With no escape, Amelia ends up being comforted by the least expected person, Liam. The iron boy, the one who doesn't let anyone get close, the one who doesn't answer questions, the one who is always one step behind.
While Ethan, her rich boyfriend, is not going to take what Juan Carlo tells him lying down and sets out to find Amelia. He does not imagine that he will discover more than one secret and that he will put his life at risk for the girl he thought he loved, until he meets Siren. And his whole life is turned upside down.
A story of second chances, because when Juan Carlo meets Camila again, he will regret his decision, because he thought he had everything, in reality he has nothing. He doesn't have and never had a true love, and now he can't give his daughter the security and life that any 17 year old girl deserves.
So far, everything makes us believe that sweet Camila and Juan Carlo love each other again. Too bad... sometimes things are not as they seem.
