Widows' Web centers around a wealthy and ambitious woman named Barbara, portrayed by Carmina Villarroel, who becomes suspicious of the circumstances surrounding her younger brother Alexander "AS3" Sagrado III's mysterious death. This event prompts an undercover investigation led by Elaine, a former hotel employee, who believes that her fiancé, Frank, has been wrongly accused of the murder.

As Elaine works to clear Frank's name, she uncovers the true suspect behind the murder while also applying for a position at the Sagrado Foundation. During her investigation, she interacts with three important women in Alexander's life: his widow Jackie, Jackie's friend Hillary, and Barbara herself. The series delves into themes of betrayal, ambition, and the quest for justice as Elaine seeks to expose the truth regarding Alexander's death and the motives of those around him.
