Daniela (Dimples Romana) and Cassie (Francine Diaz) have long been thought to be the respective biological and adopted daughters of Robert — but new revelations hint that the identities are the other way around.</p><p>Romina (Beauty Gonzalez) remains in denial that Robert, her late husband, may have been her unknown assailant that resulted in Cassie’s birth, despite evidence pointing to that.</p><p>To rest her doubt — or confirm her worst fear — Romina has asked Daniela to cooperate in a DNA test and see if Cassie is her biological sister. Daniela’s hesitance, however, appears less rooted in her feud with Romina, but more in the panic of a long hidden truth being uncovered.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><iframe height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/VpemyhhPCWw?enablejsapi=1" width="560"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more in <a href="//www.iwantv.com.ph/">iWantv</a> or <a href="//tfc.tv/">TFC.tv</a></div><p>Indeed, as the trailer teased, only Robert has the full picture.
