As reported a while ago, TLNovelas is planning to rollout the Mexican telenovela Rubi in the coming month and unlike most remakes this one comes as a sequel leaving audiences with several missing pieces but it's a norm with most reboots so travel back to 2004 where it all started.

It stars Bárbara Mori, Eduardo Santamarina, Jacqueline Bracamontes, Sebastián Rulli, Ana Martín, Yadhira Carrillo, Josefina Echánove, Antonio Medellín, Ana Bertha Espín and José Elías Moreno.

Canal de las Estrellas aired Rubí from May 17 to October 22, 2004 with a total of 115 episodes. Univision broadcast Rubí from September 20, 2004 to March 7, 2005, and has named Rubí as the top telenovela of all time.
Rubi became a star in the awards category after bagging Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Telenovela, Best Supporting Actress and Best Musical Theme at the 23rd TVyNovelas Awards and Best Female Protagonist Of The Decade at the Tv Adicto Golden Awards.
A number of adaptations had already been produced the original dates back to 1968 followed by a film in 1970. From the 2010s, a Pinoy version titled Bagong Simula with an Arabic version had been produced with the 2020 remake being the latest installment so far.
Out of all these remake, the upcoming series Rubi will be one of the shortest tales to date on the channel.

Out of all those adaptations 2 were manufactured by Telemundo, Amor Descarado (Barefaced Love, 2004) and Quién Es Quién (Who Is Who, 2015) which managed to air in Africa under the name If Only I Were You.
After 7 years (5 in Mexico), Amores De Mercado makes a comeback in Africa through the Mexican brand TelevisaUnivision's TLNovelas with the series Como Tú No Hay 2 (No One Like You) starring Adrián Uribe as the lead with Claudia Martin and Azela Robinson.

Remakes can be annoying and feel a bit repetitive at times and the handful that would probably watch No One Like You have a high tolerance level for such content or haven't viewed the version on Telemundo.
Despite my opinion on the show I'd say watch it don't rely on what other people's preferences who knows probably TLNovelas version is far superior to Telemundo's version and although being remake it's not like they'll do word for word.

Synopsis For TLNovelas Africa Upcoming Series Simply Maria/Simplemente María
María is a beautiful, strong, and resolute woman who lives in a small town in Mexico. She has a simple life without any luxuries and she doesn’t need any. She enjoys being around her family.
Don Juan attends a party in the town, determined to make some money with his gamecock. He places a bet on it, but he loses before Isauro. He gets a debt that he can’t afford to pay, but Isauro takes advantage on the situation and offers him to call off his debt in exchange for his older daughter, María… and Don Juan takes his offer.
When she learns that she must move in with a man she doesn’t want to live with, María decides to leave her life behind and escape to the capital city. All she has there is her friend Pina, who helps her get a job as maid.
María works very hard, thus, when her birthday comes, Pina practically yanks her out to get distracted and celebrate her arrival to adulthood in Xochimilco. Alejandro meets her there; he gets mesmerized by her beauty and starts courting her.
Pina acknowledges her friend is falling in love with Alejandro and she introduces her to a young man whom she considers to be a better catch for her: Professor Cristóbal. He is a good-hearted man who teaches her how to read and write and, over time, he grows fond of her.
