Alejandra, la madre de María, dirige la agencia Miracle Bump que tiene un programa de subrogación para extranjeros, en el que Teresa decide participar no porque quiera, sino porque siente que no tiene muchas opciones y de esta forma podrá ganar una buena cantidad de dinero para su familia, después de algunas pruebas le asignan a una pareja británica, Bita y Ryan y comienza todo el proceso de embarazo.

Le da asilo a Teresa por un tiempo y aunque hay roces —por ejemplo, cuando descubre que su mamá metió a Teresa al programa de subrogación que dirige en Miracle Bump—, la amistad entre ellas se mantiene firme.
