Dusk fell in Sunset Village.At Mendonça Manor, Aline chose a long teal dress in lace and glitter, with sheer tulle at the bust and American neckline. The maids were amazed by the luxury and glamor of the lady boss when they passed by her. However, Charlotte and other trusted ones were summoned by Sylvia to also wear dresses so as not to contrast with the uniforms.Charlotte wasn't confident, “Miss Mendonça, they'll think I'm one of the guests!”“So you’ll appear in Maggiezine!” Aline laughs and hugs the trusty maid.Faron comes down the stairs, looking very seductive and irresistible in his black suit.Charlotte's eyes are shining with passion, “If they mistake me for a socialite, let them say I'm the wife of this handsome guy.”“You look pretty too, Charlotte.” Faron greets her by taking her right hand and giving it a chaste kiss.Aline smiles, imagining that a romance is developing between the two, and retreats to the kitchen.The catering team works feverishly to prepare canapés,

The party at Mendonça Manor continues.Matias was going down the stairs after going to the bathroom and was surprised by Ítalo appearing in the foyer, being welcomed by Charlotte.“Good evening, sir. Welcome to the mansion.”“Thanks.” Ítalo looks at the stairs, “I'm going to talk to my older brother.”Ítalo and Matias shake hands.“Brother, you did it! What a cool suit, it looks like graphite.” Matias praises him.“Thanks. And you, did you take your glasses off? Don't you want to stay behind with your brother?” Ítalo jokes.“What is it, boy? I’m a married man expecting a child.” Matias laughs, patting his younger brother on the shoulder.Aline returns from the ballroom, still indignant with Laura's presence.“I don't even know why I invited that— Matias! Can you introduce me to the gentleman who lo

The applause was more effusive than before.Photographers used up all the film in their cameras and had to resort to cell phones.João Paulo was in a corner recording his voice, “It's the party of 2022. Aline Mendonça, from troublemaker girl and some valley girl to respectable lady who announces her marriage to the heir of the Fabray Network! What a transformation, people, what a transformation!”Reginaldo, adding to the uproar among those present, took Aline's hand to leave no doubt that this is what he wants.Laura, however, finally understood why Aline invited her to the 'party'.No, it wasn't just a party! They took advantage of the occasion to announce their engagement!George continued with his arm draped around his sister's shoulders, assuring her that she wasn't alone, "Want to go, little sister?"“No, George.” Laura responded with a glare, mentally wishing the stand would collapse and Aline break her ankle, “Remember, it's still the engagement. There is time to undo it.”Regi

Reginaldo's eyes widen as wide as possible when he hears Sergeant Oliveira pronounce the shocking words.He closes the office door and approaches Bartolomeo and Donald, “What did you say, Sergeant? Was Antonio Ferreira murdered?”“Does the fact surprise you?” Oliveira laughs sarcastically, “Mr. Fabray, the only reason I'm not arresting you right now is because I haven't had time to issue a warrant. But I haven’t the slightest doubt that it was you.”"LIE!" Reginaldo is enraged, “The last time I saw the rogue was in the building where Laura Correia’s parents live.”“And you punched the deceased,” Oliveira comments sarcastically.“He was causing a ruckus and threatening people with death.” Reginaldo doesn't believe he's being directly accused without proof, “Come on, sergeant! Do you really want to investigate this death? Probably half of Lagoon City will be interrogated. The guy was not a person liked by those who knew him.”“That is no reason to be murdered.” Oliveira tries to reason

While our couple celebrates their engagement and their enemies cry with envy, Sabrina will cry for another reason.She was in one of the hotel's VIP suites, making out frantically with Anestor, heading for the double bed while Anestor got rid of his clothes as if they had fleas.However, Sabrina's cell phone interrupts the lustful mood.“Don't pick up, dear...” Anestor ordered in a husky and sexy voice.But it was the third time the cell phone had rung. Sabrina frowned.“I need to see who it is, my love. It sounds desperate.” Sabrina disengages from him and takes the device, “Hello?”On the other side, Sergeant Oliveira is in the Ferreira mansion, “Mrs. Ferreira? Where are you located? Are you still at the party?”“I'm in the hotel.” Sabrina speaks without concern, “Who is it?”“Sergeant Oliveira, from the Sunset Village local precinct. Are you aware that your husband was shot to death with a revolver?”Sabrina is horrified, not by the death itself, but by the fact that the corpse has
