Lazaro is threatened by Guido due to his closeness to Annaliza who still sees the latter as a significant father figure. After Annaliza's return, Lazaro and Isabel's marriage fell apart and he reconnects with Stella again, bringing Annaliza more misery than good.

She also tried to win their grandmother's affection, ultimately deposing Annaliza's status in the Benedicto household. Once Lazaro and Stella got back together, she reverted into making her younger half-sister's life a living hell with her grandmother and mother's help, but when Lazaro died due to Stella's wickedness Arlene had a sudden change of heart and began to slowly accept Isabel, Guido and Annaliza as family. Her hatred was then reverted to her own mother, which intensified when she learned that the reason of Annaliza's separation from her birth parents was her own mother's wicked designs. In the series finale, she found the heart to forgive her mother from all her wrongdoings and chose to stay with their grandmother after Isabel and Annaliza left for the US.
