Paloma expresses all her feelings for Renato when she is with him. However, Renato makes it clear that he doesn't want to create conflict with her or her family after the kiss they shared at the fair. Porfirio asks Bárbara to learn everything about the sugarcane fields under Renato's tutelage. However, she refuses to receive instructions from him, as she perceives him as hostile and with a superior attitude towards her. Despite having been honest with each other and having decided to respect Paloma's commitment to Porfirio, she still harbors feelings for that encounter with Renato. Thanks to the plans Gustavo began plotting on Porfirio's farm, Renato and Bárbara find themselves involved in a dangerous situation: the sugarcane fields have been sabotaged with traps designed to injure the workers and thus affect Porfirio's production.
