The revealing conversation between Joshua, Reginaldo, and George continues.Joshua tries to answer within his constraints, “Well... From what he tells me, the hotel's finances haven't been so good since the pandemic, with the reduction of people staying at the hotel, so he set up this scheme to earn some extra money. Having porters providing this type of 'service' ensured that people with money to spend would stay at the Ferreira Hotel.”Reginaldo shakes his head, “Apparently, an acceptable justification. But such a thing had to come out of Antonio Ferreira's crooked mind. Other hotels have managed to bounce back from the pandemic without resorting to something so demeaning.”George turns to him, “And now, Reggie, what are you going to do?”“Well, I'm taking over the hotel along with Sabrina. I think Anestor will want to stay by her side. I'm going to have a little meeting with the porters, with Mr. Rosendo, and put an end to this scheme.” Reginaldo crosses his fingers.Joshua is reli

Reginaldo reassures Aline about losing the sale.“Honey, it happens all the time. Don't worry, it's part of the market.”“I should have asked which realtor he contacted.” Aline wonders, “Will we have a strong competitor in Sunset Village?”Reginaldo stops stroking the fiancée's hair and positions himself in front of her, “I'm glad you mentioned Sunset Village, my dear. I have news to announce.”"Which?" Aline calms down a bit and pays attention.“I am seriously considering moving Downtown's office to Sunset Village. Most of us live around here. Bianca and Rodrigo live not far away. The fact is that we all have to take the car and go to Downtown and then come back here. Our clients, for the most part, are from here, in the prime area. We've hardly ever sold real estate near Green Park or Rainbow Garden.”“It's true, dear.” Aline nods, “Since you revealed your true identity, the amount of upper-class buyers has increased. They know they are dealing with a Fabray. Your last name is power

At the Ferreira Hotel, in Anestor's office, Ítalo receives a proposal from the new hotel managers.Sabrina scowls at the porter's bewildered complexion, “Hey, why you got that face? Do you... don't you want to stop behaving immorally in my hotel?”“YOUR hotel?” Ítalo reacts with displeasure, getting up abruptly, “Has the will been read?”“Not yet, but I know the hotel has been left to me.” Sabrina smiles victoriously.“Ah, so the police weren't entirely wrong to have you two behind bars.” Ítalo scoffs, pointing his finger at them.Anestor gets angry, “They had no evidence that we carried out such an act. We were not present when the crime took place.”Ítalo continues mockingly, “Oh, I forgot. You turned yourself in and confessed to the crime just to free your girlfriend... or should I say 'lover'?”“I did it because I'm sure Sabrina didn't commit the murder!” Anestor exclaims.“And how are you so sure of that?” Ítalo asks in mockery.“He knows because we needed Antonio still alive to

At night, Aline returned to Mendonça Manor, irritated by the mission's lack of success. She spent the rest of the afternoon looking for real estate agencies even in the more residential part of Sunset Village, where the mansions were. She even passed by Ferreira House, which was still for sale.Charlotte received her with curiosity, “Miss Mendonça, you seem tired of the war! How was your afternoon?”“A horror, Charlotte, but thanks for asking.” Aline sighs despondently.Faron goes downstairs, “Miss Mendonça, did something happen?”“No, Faron, that was the problem.” Aline snorts, “I needed to find the realtor who snatched the client from me. I need to meet our competitor.”Faron feels guilty, “Miss Mendonça, I'm sorry, I failed. Miss should have asked me for such a tiring mission. But I was not worthy of your trust.”Aline shakes her index finger, “That's not true, Faron. I was the one who ended up forgetting to call you because I wanted to carry out this task alone. But I was stupid a

Anestor was intending to go into the master suite and tease Aline, warning her that she wouldn't be getting rid of him that easily, as he was staying for dinner.However, he began to hear footsteps coming from some direction...Then Anestor remembered that Reginaldo was coming in from the street and would certainly go upstairs to bathe.Then he promptly turned away from the door and proceeded to walk to the bathroom.Reginaldo was indeed approaching to enter the suite, but he didn't fail to notice that Anestor was still turning the corner when he should have already done so.He watches the door ajar and enters the suite, finding his fiancée sitting on the bed, looking at her cell phone.“Is he gone?” It’s her question, dry.Reginaldo chuckles, “I thought you were ready to go downstairs.”“I was, until I found the butler downstairs being received effusively as if nothing had happened.” Aline turns to him, “Where's Faron?”Reginaldo smiles, but warns, “Honey, no fuss today. Let's celebr
