Nathaniel Cervantes

Nathaniel Fortalejo Cervantes is the only son of Margarita and Josef Cervantes. At the beginning of the series, he along with the siblings Emerald and Jewel Fortalejo are the three heirs of Don Leon Fortalejo.

He is married to Jasmin Cuevo, a former employee of Kristine Cement that Don Leon chose to be Nathaniel's bride.

Nathaniel runs the Kristine Resort as well as the ranch in Hacienda Kristine at the beginning of the series. Villa Kristine was initially to be bequeathed to him by Don Leon as his inheritance.

He was threatened by Don Leon to take away his birthright to own and run the ranch if he refuses to marry Jasmin. Despite being attracted to Jasmin, he had refused due to the knowledge that Jasmin already has a child and suspicions that Jasmin and Leon has a relationship. It can also be said that his refusal is due to the knowledge that Leon is manipulating him.

Nathaniel was a capable business man but he refuses to work at Kristine Cement believing that he was meant for the countryside. He loves working on the ranch and prefers working with the cows and horses than being in an office. He is well respected by the employees of the resort.

He was described by his mother as quite conservative like Don Leon, believing that Fortalejos should only marry virgin brides. Jasmin disliked this hypocrisy when it was widely known how much of a player Nathaniel was. Before meeting Jasmin, he was dating Rowan a beautiful local in Paso de Blas.

Later in the series, it was revealed that Nathaniel had an affair which almost separated the two.

Nathaniel has one son Karl Anton.
