Mara is Carmín's personal assistant. She is one of the only people who know what Carmín is really like. She very rarely gets any attention from anyone and is mostly in Carmín's shadow. However, she loves nail art and is very good at it, and posts videos on the latest nail art trends for her fans, whom she calls Cukis. But because she is so busy working on planning and editing Carmín's videos, as well as coming up with ideas for her which Carmín claims as her own, Mara barely has any time to work on her channel. She also helps Carmín find information on Bia and others at the Fundom Channel and even does mischief and sabotages them. Whenever Mara is angry or annoyed, she records her complaints onto her phone to let her stress out.

## Relationships

### Carmín Laguardia

Carmín makes Mara act as her best friend for her fans and everyone else, but in reality, they are not close at all. Carmín considers Mara as her subordinate and nothing more, and even threatens to replace her if she doesn't do what she says. Mara doesn't speak up to her. Despite that, Mara is still kind to Carmín and asks her politely for time to work on some personal nail art projects on her channel MStyle, yet she gets turned down.

### Manuel Quemola

When Manuel thinks that Mara is the girl with the beautiful voice, Mara assumes he actually likes her. She has a great time with him when they interact and finally feels better about herself, as she is for once being treated nicely. However, she hides the fact that she isn't the girl he's looking for from him, in order to continue talking to him. After some time, when she sings with him, Manuel figures out the truth, and they stop hanging out, which hurts Mara. She later confesses herself, and he says he knew.

### Guillermo Ruiz

Mara and Guillermo have very similar jobs because they are both assistants and work in the same company and building. They are both assistants who are not treated very well. They interact sometimes as they can relate to each other, but not too often, as they are busy. Guillermo is seen to be interested in Mara and tries to talk to her, but she mostly ignores him and doesn't notice his interest. Guillermo is also jealous of Manuel with Mara, which causes him to dislike him.

## Trivia

* She was responsible for putting up the "Murderous Helena" banner in front of the Urquizas' house.
	+ Her uncle owns the company that made the banner.
	+ Alex is (so far) the only one who found out about her scheme earlier on. As of now, he hasn't told anyone about it, not even Bia or Manuel who mistakenly believed he was the culprit, probably due to his hatred and jealousy on both of them ever since Victor made everyone believe that Bia's sister was driving during the accident. However, since Mara was unaware of the feud between the families, Alex is partly at fault for the banner after he shared the information to her.
	+ With no confirmation of a third season, it remains unknown if Alex is ever going to tell Bia about Mara's role in the banner or if Bia finds out herself and leads to a heated confrontation between them.
* She is one of the main characters, along with Bia, Manuel, Alex, Carmín, Chiara and Helena, to appear in every episode.
