Marcela Valencia (Natalia Ramírez) is not a screaming villain. She is a cold, efficient predator. In Episode 298, we see her begin to realize that marrying Armando didn't win her the prize she thought. She has the man, but she doesn’t have his soul.

This is not the Betty who cried in the bathroom. This is Betty the strategist. She has the man, but she doesn’t have his soul
