A long-planned conspiracy, a life that is switched. Charlotte Barlow, the daughter of the wealthy Goodman family, is swapped at birth by the maid Danielle Fuller with her own daughter. Overnight, Charlotte Barlow, who should have been the family's pride and joy, is reduced to a servant's daughter and suffers constant abuse. Meanwhile, Stella Goodman, who should have lived in poverty, becomes the pampered heiress. By chance, Charlotte saves her birth mother, Britney Goodman, and is brought into the Goodman family. Fearing the truth would be exposed, Danielle, who works as Britney's maid, schemes to frame Charlotte, causing her to be wrongfully accused. Stella, who accidentally discovers she is the "fake heiress", also fears her true identity would be revealed. The two conspire with Jordan Goodman, Britney's live-in husband, to poison Britney while repeatedly framing Charlotte, causing her birth mother to misunderstand her!

Five years ago, Charlotte married her boyfriend of ten years, but he disappeared without a trace on their wedding night, leaving her pregnant. Meanwhile, Charlotte's dad and sister, Wendy, expelled her from the Johnson family, claiming that Charlotte brought shame to the family. Alone, Charlotte gave birth to quadruplets, one of whom was reported stillborn by the doctor. Heartbroken, she left that sorrowful place with her children. Five years later, in order to obtain embryo blood to treat her son Hayes' leukemia, she finally tracked down her missing husband, Hector. Wendy, using the "dead" child, became Hector's fiancée, while Hector seemed completely unfamiliar with Charlotte, and the paternity tests he took regarding the children kept yielding incorrect results. Amid their entanglement, Hector's heart gradually softened, and he found himself involuntarily falling in love with Charlotte. The appearance of Elias, a high school classmate who had an unrequited love for Charlotte, led to the complete unearthing of a conspiracy from five years ago involving Wendy. In the end, Charlotte reclaimed her daughter, whom Wendy had stolen and falsely claimed was stillborn, while Hector recovered his memory.
