Tuan (Sompol Kongsuwan)(น้องชายของอาวุธ) is having an affair with Khun Phra's daughter Pin Phet (ปิ่นเพชร). At nighttime, Tuan wishes to steal valuables from Khun Phra but domestic helper Khap (ขาบ) sees him. Awut, being drunk, is having a short affair with Khap, the lady taking care of Pin Kaew. While Tuan is exiting Pin Phet's room, he faces the father and stabs him. Meanwhile on the upper floor, Athit, looking for his wife and son, finds Pin Kaew and releases her and his son. While exiting the house, Pin Kaew sees her father's dead body and believes Athit killed him. Athit, despite not being the murderer, surrenders himself to the police knowing he will end up in jail. Pin Kaew marries Awut. Meanwhile Tuan stays with Khap as he is hoping to get money from his elder brother Awut. Khap bears an illegitimate child with Awut. Khap is pregnant, but still wishes to keep the child despite Tuan's pressure. Children do grow up. Pin Kaew and her new husband Awut had three kids including Plae (Metta Roongrat). Tuk, son of Athit and Pin Kaew, is sent abroad and becomes a doctor. The illegitimate child of Khap becomes a girl named Care (อุไรวรรณ งามบุญสืบ). The child Khaem, that she raised, becomes a car repairman. Tuan is always looking for money. Tuk is talking with uncle Sukon about his wish to open a doctor cabinet in a poor province in order to help local people. His car hits Care. They have misunderstandings. Tuk offers money as compensation, but proud Care refuses. Tuan, as her father, takes the money to buy alcohol. Care enters in rich people's houses to learn how to swim. Domestic helper (Sisala Thongtara) finds her, but the local policeman helps her. Tuan wishes to sell the home to get money to buy alcohol. Khaem prevents Tuan from hurting Khap and Care. About to die due to an accident, Awut decides to establish again the truth and to recognize Care as his daughter. Thanks to Care's efforts, Awut recovers. The two other daughters are not happy about Care, but the brother is positive. Pin Kaew welcomes her also as Khap helped Pin Kaew before. The doctor meets Plae in his office. She is looking to abort as her boyfriend is going to be sent abroad as his parents refuse a scandal. Tuk mentions he is also an orphan and that every life deserves a chance. Plae meets Adul. Care goes to the doctor to pay the fee, but he refuses. She invites him to eat at home. Awut, being proud of having noble blood, believes Tuk wants something from him. Despite being a commoner and peasant child, Tuk is proud of his roots. Seeing Pin Kaew's picture, it reminds him of something. Awut wishes also to expel his daughter Plae from his home as she misbehaves being pregnant. Adul, loving Plae at first sight, promises to take care of the child. Awut again thinks Adul wants something from him. Tuk has pity for Care as her half sisters despise her and she is having a harsh father. Aware of love starting between Care and Tuk, Plae is jealous and asks the brother to manage Care. Aware, Khaem helps Care and sends her back to their home. Plae uses Choomporn to harm Care. Hopefully Tuk is around and a fight erupts between Tuk and Choomporn. Pin Kaew uses broken glass to injure Choomporn. About to tell the truth to Tuk, she finally acts crazily. Plae kills Choomporn with another broken glass to avoid him talking. Care decides to quit this house to stay with her mother. Athit, having become crazy, takes refuge by hazard in Khap's house. He hides as Care arrives to stay with his mother. Tuan hits Khap again to ask for money. Athit helps, but gets knocked out by Tuan. Khaem chases Tuan again. Athit understands Tuan is the one causing him to go to jail 20 years ago, so he is looking for revenge towards Tuan and is searching for him. Pin Kaew is willing to get suicide as she is concerned to have hurt Choomporn. Tuan is facing her and starts to hit her. Athit intervenes and a fight occurs. Tuan is finally defeated and Athit spares his life following the request of Pin Kaew. Tuk understands that Athit and Pin Kaew are his parents as Khap told him the truth.
