Get ready for an explosive episode of La Promesa! Doña Cruz is about to launch a shocking, two-pronged attack to finally get rid of Jana, and viewers will witness Jana’s powerful resistance. This is the moment fans have been waiting for, as Jana finally confronts the Marquise head-on. If you’ve been passionately following La Promesa, you know exactly why someone needs to stop Doña Cruz once and for all. This incredible episode marks a significant turning point in the story, and we’ll also reveal the true, ruthless motivations behind Doña Cruz’s actions against Jana. What you’re about to discover will leave you utterly stunned!

Doña Cruz’s Calculated Scheme: Option A and Option B

Doña Cruz has concocted a meticulously planned scheme, complete with two alternatives: Option A and Option B.

The plot against Jana began with a deep disappointment for her: a shocking attempt at bribery, not by the Marquise, but by the Marquis himself! Jana confided her bitterness to her friend María Fernández, stating she would have expected it from Doña Cruz, “but never from the Marquis!” Viewers were equally shocked, forced to acknowledge that the Marquis, too, is a prisoner of his own classism, unable to accept the love between his son and a maid, especially given Manuel’s troubled past.

With Manuel currently detained at the Civil Guard barracks and unable to protect Jana, her enemies are acting without mercy. Doña Cruz, as we know, has one sole objective: eliminate Jana from her life and from the palace, and she’s willing to do anything to achieve it.

Initially, they tried deception, using emotional blackmail to make Jana believe she was the cause of Manuel’s ruined future. But Jana and Manuel’s love is too strong to be broken so easily. Jana resisted with strength, determination, and courage.

However, Doña Cruz didn’t give up. Realizing her husband’s attempt at bribery had failed, she shifted strategy from Option A to Option B. Suddenly, a bag full of money mysteriously appeared in Jana’s room—or, as Jana disdainfully called it, “a bag full of loose change.” This was a subtle, premeditated, and calculated move. Doña Cruz was caught off guard, as someone in the house had dared to openly defy her with a brazen act of insubordination.

But here’s the crucial point: that bag was a trap. If Jana had accepted it and fled, they would have achieved their goal. If she stayed, they could accuse her of theft, using it as an excuse to fire her without remorse. Doña Cruz, as we well know, never acts without a hidden agenda. Every move is calculated, every word chosen, every gesture has a precise objective, and right now, that objective is Jana Expósito. It’s clear the Marquise is executing a meticulously crafted plan, built patiently, piece by piece, like a chess player setting up a checkmate. And now, with young Manuel confined to the Civil Guard barracks, she has a clear path to act unimpeded.

The Marquis’s Betrayal and Jana’s Uncertain Future

This week will be crucial in La Promesa. Viewers will finally witness Marquis Alonso sign Jana’s dismissal. This act weighs heavily, but those who know the behind-the-scenes reality understand that this decision doesn’t stem from the Marquis’s heart, but from the subtle and constant pressure exerted by his wife, Doña Cruz.

Now, the pressing question is: what will become of Jana? Where will she go? Who will protect her? For longtime fans of La Promesa, there’s a known safe haven, a secret refuge hidden among the trees: Ramona’s hut in the heart of the forest. This place has become a symbol of hope and survival, a spot where those who have lost everything can start anew. Many have found refuge there, including Ramona herself, María Fernández, Jana, and even Pía during her most difficult times. This hut serves as a “joker house,” as it’s been called, an anchor of salvation for those who have nothing left. If Jana is indeed forced to leave La Promesa, that will be her only possible destination.

More Complications for Manuel and a Dark Echo from the Past

But the drama doesn’t end there. If Jana is forced to seek refuge in the forest, she’ll have to live in hiding until Manuel is freed. This opens another chapter full of tension. Captain Burdin has not looked favorably upon the Marquis’s intervention with higher authorities to help his son. In fact, this intervention could backfire on Manuel and worsen his situation—a cruel paradox where a father, in trying to help, risks doing the opposite. Of course, if Manuel is truly innocent (which we know he is), it’s only a matter of time before he’s released. But how much time, and what will happen in the interim?

Then there’s the mysterious bag of money left in Jana’s room. Have you ever wondered where that money came from? It doesn’t take great investigative skills to figure it out: that money came from Vera’s briefcase. Doña Cruz, as always, appropriates what doesn’t belong to her with shocking nonchalance. Let’s not forget that in the past, she even sold the precious brooch that belonged to Doña Carmen, Catalina’s mother, just to organize a lavish birthday party. This gives you an idea of how far she’ll go to achieve her objectives.

And now, for a truly shocking revelation: if Jana does end up in the hut and Manuel remains incarcerated for a long time, a tragic fate might repeat itself—that of her mother, Dolores. Remember? She, too, was pursued by mysterious, hooded figures who wanted to take her life. It wouldn’t be a surprise if they now tried to do the same with Jana. Knowing Doña Cruz, nothing is impossible; her cruelty seems boundless. We can only hope it doesn’t come to that, but La Promesa has taught us that anything can happen.
