Esme rebuilds her life in New Zealand after Tomas's betrayal and false accusations.
Eight years of commitment shatter when Esme discovers Tomas married her closest friend Alessia and fathered a son with her. The revelation coincides with Esme's miscarriage and a deep depressive episode, driving her to New Zealand for distance. A fabricated allegation that she endangered the boy follows her there.
