Pavel's the current wife Victoria decided to get rid of Marina’s newborn daughter, who, in the event of Paul’s death, would become his full heir.

Our days. A circus troupe comes to the provincial town on tour. Two twin brothers, Yaroslav and Svyatoslav, take care of the young beautiful gymnast Asya. Yaroslav falls in love with her at first sight, and the girl reciprocates. No wonder, the intelligent and romantic Yarik is the man of her dreams! But suddenly he is forced to go on business to England.

Eighteen years ago, Asya was born in this town. She is the granddaughter of their stepfather, the famous cardiologist Pavel Fedotov. Mother Asi died in childbirth, and Fedotov believed that the same fate befell the child. In fact, through the efforts of his second wife, Viktoria, the newborn girl was given to circus artist Raisa, who raised her.[4]
