On November 21, 2007 Pilar's secret is revealed. Pilar and the white-haired woman - Juanita Vasquez - had grown up in Mexico as close friends. As young girls, Pilar and Juanita had spoken of wanting to find love and have their own family one day, however Juanita wanted to have a wealthy husband and was overly obsessed with wanting very high quality luxurious items and a big mansion. Juanita had become engaged to a man named Carlos Alejandro Vasquez, the heir to an immense drug cartel; Pilar had been worried about the Vasquez's involvement with drugs and even warned Juanita to not marry into that family, and although Juanita herself at first was skeptical about marrying into the Vazquez family being aware of their criminal backgrounds, Juanita slowly did not care about this as she was extremely too caught up in wanting a wealthy husband and to live in extreme high luxury and a very big mansion that her judgment was clouded and also had reassured her friend that Carlos supposedly promised he was going to leave the family crime business, and was instead going to become an attorney. Pilar had then married Martin and moved to and settled with her husband in New England, USA and had given birth to Antonio and Luis.
