One nervous man came to Baron's, Silvano's father, house. He said that he came to explain the murder of Tommaso. He borrowed Tommaso's money, and after his father's death, he paid everything back. But Tommaso came and threatened him. He said that there was one more man who was indebted to him, and he's the murderer. His name is Gervasio de' Oddini, Silvano's best friend. He said that he killed Tommaso for his wife and wealth. Baron had find out the truth. Isabella visited Anselmo. They talked and Anselmo decided to not to go back to Isabella even though he loves her so much. Isabella decided to give up too. Then she went to ask Chiara about her answer, and Chiara decided to go with her but she'll stay first until she makes sure that everyone's safe.

Angelica was discussing about her plan with her own father. She told her plan, about marrying Gervasio. His father was worried about her fame because she may be called as a woman who had a lover when her husband was still alive. Angelica got the call and she was shocked. She said that Gervasio was arrested as a murderer of Tommaso. At Silvano's place, he met Brother Valentino at the hill. He was collecting the herbs. Silvano suggested him to go back with him, but Valentino rejected, saying he still has work to do. Silvano came back and after doing his businesses, he heard from Anselmo that Valentino had disappeared. His safety was uncertain.

Vincenzo and Angelica visited Gervasio, trying to take him out from the jail. They failed but Angelica suggested another option, to try to convince Baron, the one who admitted that he's a murderer. Vincenzo and Angelica went to Baron, beg for his generosity, but Baron was angry about putting his son as a murderer, giving him trouble, exile him from his hometown, separating him from family, and giving great sadness to them. Angelica told them that she was pregnant, but not sure who was the real father. But Baronessa forgave them, because she didn't wish to see another family losing their son again, and a wife with baby living without a husband. Baron considered it and said that he'll ask Silvano. At Silvano's place, Michael de Cesena, the general came to talk with Anselmo. Anselmo was removed Silvano also heard the news that he was free from the murder. He was able to know the real murderer's name, Gervasio de Oddini.

Silvano was in a great shock, and also was shocked that Gervasio was about to marry Angelica. But he gathered his consciousness and decided to leave for Anselmo. Chiara saw him leaving, and was really sad. But it's time for her to leave too. Isabella came to her and she told her everything. Also that Umberto has disappeared. Isabella was worried and decided to go to Anselmo's place. Chiara went with her and met Silvano and Anselmo again. Anselmo was recognized as innocent and went back with others. But there was another news that Umberto is dead. Silvano and Anselmo was talking then Fazio came in. Fazio asked for verde azzuro, then Silvano was behind and saw the blade on Fazio's hand. Silvano shouted to Anselmo but he was late. They fought each other. At the end Fazio cried out and the blood was spreading. Anselmo went to Father and admit that he killed Fazio. Silvano explained everything. Then they found Valentino's dead body. Every detail things became evidence that Fazio was the murderer for all the cases in the sanctuary. The case was solved and Chiara need to go back. Silvano told her that he'll go back and see her.

Days later, Chiara was looking out the window then she saw Silvano and his horse. She rubbed her eyes, then they disappeared. She heard knocking so she went down then heard a men's laughter. She saw Brother Anselmo, who is not friary anymore, holding Isabella's waist. Then she saw Silvano. Silvano asked her to believe him and she was willing. Silvano handed her his hand and grabbed it as if he'll never let it go.
