Now Madeleine is a widow, they make plans to sell their apartments and move to Rome. But Madeleine is afraid to tell the truth to her meddling daughter Anne and resentful son Frédéric, who still think their father was her one true love.

When Madeleine is hit by a stroke, Nina has to fight for the possibility to take care of her. As the tragedy strikes, their secret is slowly coming to light.
