In the first episode of Season 3 they show us how Virginia prepares for her 21st birthday, and then escapes her house to go with her friends to the Acapulco Hills where that night, after a crazy party with her friends, she tries having sex for the first time with Salo, but being too drunk she can't, after her first attempt she leaves her room to find Pato, so she goes to the room with him and there she loses her virginity for the first time. As a result of that night, she has her first daughter Paulina de la Mora.

Back at her home, Virginia is prepared to go to a Finishing School for Young Ladies where Carmela Villalobos, her neighbor from Las Lomas, is studying. The classes were not so important to Virginia, so she goes with Lucía, her classmate, to smoke marijuana in a greenhouse. That same day at night Salo and Neto go to the Finishing School to pick up Virginia and Carmela. A few days after, Virginia goes to the gynecologist and finds out about her pregnancy. She already knew that the child was from Pato, so she creates a plan to marry Salo and raise the child as his, but her mother Victoria wants her to marry Agustín Corcuera (Pato's boyfriend). The plan does not go as planned, since Salo decides instead to marry Esther for being of the same religion. Virginia ends up marrying Ernesto, who agrees to raise the child as his. Although he is in love with Carmela, he is also keen for the marriage to happen, so he can use the Aguirre family’s wealth to help his mother after his father left their family bankrupt.

Later, in revenge with Ernesto, she denounces him for the debts Roberta left, but she grieves and has to sell drugs illegally to free her husband from prison. At the end of Season 1, Virginia sells the florist and flees to Houston, where she dies of cancer, in the company of her boyfriend Alejo.
