Eventually Frida fell in love with Octavio and went insane. She was committed to a mental hospital.

Marcial, named after the Roman war god Mars, is the secret lover of Frida and fake best friend of Octavio. Together they run the Villareal company, but Marcial wants to have all the factory for himself.

Octavioʻs aunt thinks that Marcial is a good person and keeps him with her in Villarreal villa, but Marcial tries to kill her. In fact, Marcial proves to be a serial killer, assassinating everyone who is in his path to obtain what he wants. He is responsible for the most deaths in the series.

Marcial slept with Frida many times and played erotic games with her, but he is in love with a beautiful woman, María Magdalena, who lost her husband.[2] Marcial tries to marry her, but Frida bares him a son.[3]

After getting leprosy, Frida invites Marcial over in a hotel room and shows him to an oil bath. Eventually, she shows her scars to Marcial and begs him to kiss her. Her appearance disgusts Marcial and in an act of revenge, Frida throws a torch in the oil bath, causing it to burst into flames. Marcial screams for help but is engulfed in the fire. Against all odds, he survives the ordeal, but ironically is heavily disfigured, even worse than Frida, who had previously repulsed him. He tries to kidnap Fernandito but is caught by Octavio. After climbing a ladder to the feet of a statue, he holds Octavio at knife point until Frida shows up. Marcial tries to convince her to kill everyone present, but after she hesitates, he calls her "mediocre" and she shoots him twice. He falls, but lives for a few more minutes. Struggling for his life he asks the people present to help him, but they all refuse, having suffered deeply because of his actions. He is given the chance to make amends, but he shows no regret over his actions and admits in a demonic voice that everything he did was for his "friend that he did not want to betray", heavily implying the Devil. He vows to return, since evil never ends and finally passes away.[4]
