Chapter 681 A Matter Left Behind
Mark was in his study at Ferro House. It seemed that today, he wouldn’t be going to work. Following Briana’s advice, he decided to focus on important matters, such as what exactly happened between them regarding Lawrence Sodré. Was the threat completely over? Mark woke up with an idea. While he sat at his desk waiting, the door opened. Regis entered, carrying a pharmacy bag, and handed it to his boss. “Here it is, Lord Ferro.” “Thanks a lot, Regis.” Mark took the bag. “Now let’s see what these people are up to.” He placed the contents on the desk: several small boxes or packages of legally produced aphrodisiacs available in pharmacies. These pills had been previously tested and approved before hitting the shelves. Therefore, no one would be implicated or linked to Lawrence if they used one of these. Regis wanted to know more. “Are you still thinking about the trouble Lawrence caused?” “Unfortunately, Regis, what Lawrence did will be etched into the history of Braspolis, per
Chapter 682 Surprise Meeting
Briana made a facepalm, feeling like the stupidest person who had ever existed on Earth. Mark, always the caring husband, didn’t want her to think less of herself. “Relax, sweetheart. Everyone has the right to make mistakes.” “It’s just that I buried the dark memories of that incident deep in my mind,” Briana justified herself. “I understand. But it’s true, I’m researching this more thoroughly.” Mark shook the plastic bag. “I sent Regis to buy these boxes and packaging to check their chemical components.” Briana jumped. “Wow, Mark, you also know about Chemistry and Pharmacology?” Mark chuckled happily. “Wish I did! Well, I was a good student in high school, but this here requires experts’ opinions.” Briana wasn’t as dumb as she thought. In tune with her husband, she unraveled his plan. “Are you going to the police station to talk about this with Sergeant Ribeiro?” “Exactly!” Mark nodded enthusiastically. “But he’ll soon be promoted to lieutenant. I need to go, dear, and so do
Chapter 683 No Straw Will Be Left Behind
“I came to talk about the Lawrence Sodré incident,” Mark began, bringing Ribeiro’s mind back to the conversation. “Have you checked if everything’s resolved, no straw left behind?” “Yes, we’re good on that.” Ribeiro nodded slightly. “Mr. Sodré is awaiting trial in jail. From what I hear around, his defense lawyer will hardly manage to reduce his sentence.” “Of course, he can’t claim his client is innocent because we know he isn’t — Aurelia as a whole, actually,” Mark responded with disdain, then straightened up. “I’ve been thinking about the drug Lawrence used on his victims — and himself, in the end.” “You want to know if we’ve investigated all that?” Ribeiro asked, more interested. Mark became cautious, not wanting to push his authority as Lord Ferro to make Ribeiro suspicious. “Yes, after all, I don’t want to be surprised with another drug lord taking Lawrence’s place with the same ‘product.’” “There’s a narcotics department here in the building, Mr. Ferro,” Ribeiro informed
Chapter 684 Controlling the Female Fire
Finally, the general manager of Glamour decided to calm things down. Clapping her hands, Briana called Luana’s attention. “Hey, HEY! Let’s stop all the fuss already?” “Oh, why do you always think I want to cause a scandal? Let me enjoy my life, my friend!” Luana gestured loudly, clearly not in a professional work environment. Celia also felt like she was in a corner bar instead of a reputable company. “Jeez, how the meeting turned vulgar and trashy! I think I’ll return another time.” “I haven’t finished!” Briana shouted, trying to find peace amidst the chaos. Celia crossed her arms, displeased. Briana sat in her upholstered chair, the leather contrasting with her red pantsuit. “Can someone explain to me why you two are reacting like this? Celia, why did you cosplay as Lot’s woman?” “I don’t understand why I was transferred!” Celia shouted. “I told you the meeting was about Jake Brett, right?” Briana explained. “You were seen dating him on the studio sets. Not everyone will be
Chapter 685 Someone Was Looking For You
Linda also felt that the answer would be too cruel for her nerves to handle.“Okay, never mind, I don’t even want to imagine.” She shook her head, continuing to type.Mark pitied Linda. As a woman, she would surely get the creeps just thinking about such a grotesque and outrageous situation.“Since I don’t want to attract suspicion, have one of your assistants discreetly ask questions at the narcotics department at the police station,” Mark instructed. “As soon as you get an interesting answer, inform me.”“Understood, Lord Ferro.” Linda nodded, always eager to serve.Mark’s cell phone rang, and he answered, “Hello?”On the other end, Ribeiro’s voice sounded, “Mr. Ferro? You’re in luck. One of our female officers volunteered to interrogate, once again, that young woman who served the cafe, Viviana something.”Mark smiled, satisfied. Perhaps Viviana had some answers...******Mauro was working in the Glamour parking lot, as usual, until he came across a man in his late 20s to early 30s
Chapter 686 She Thought He’d Help Her
At Glamour, Celia felt exposed and revealed by Briana’s accusation, to Luana’s delight. However, it wasn’t just an accusation; it was the raw, undeniable truth.Celia didn’t want to deny her relationship with Jake — she knew it would be futile and hypocritical. So, all that was left was to defend herself as best she could.“So this is why I’m being transferred to another department?” She exclaimed indignantly.Luana scoffed, crossing her arms. “Celia, don’t play dumb. You just prided yourself on being an exemplary employee. Live up to what you described yourself as: be an excellent employee and obey your boss.”“Did you have something to do with this?” Celia couldn’t be discreet any longer, launching into a direct confrontation.Luana reveled in her enemy’s reaction, making mocking faces. “Is that even possible? Wasn’t I one of the people who caught you in the dressing room with Jake?”“I suspected you’d gossip, but I decided to give you the benefit of the doubt!” Celia snarled.Luana
Chapter 687 No Intentions with His Ex-Wife
Gene narrowed his eyes even more, looking almost oriental. Mark wondered if the HR manager needed glasses.“Any problem, Gene?” He asked.“Don’t you see it as a problem, someone unknown to us while you’re completely known to him? I bet he knows the color of your underwear!” Gene exclaimed indignantly.Mark raised an eyebrow. That joke again?“No, he doesn’t know,” Mark replied, maintaining his calm. “But we can check. Mauro said he was near my parking spot.”Gene calmed down too, understanding his boss’s idea. “There’s a camera right nearby. I remember Adrian Curtis...”“Forget him, and check the recording with the security team. We’ll get a good image of him, if possible.”Gene took out his cell phone and dialed the parking lot.From the parking lot guardhouse, Mauro answered, “Hello, Mauro speaking?”“Mauro, this is Gene. Manager Ferro requests today’s recordings showing the sinister man who peppered you with questions.”“Good idea, why didn’t I think of that before?” Mauro got exci
Chapter 688 Gradual Change
“Am I hearing right?” Luana cackled. “You’re going to let this hen continue to live La Vida Loca in my man’s studios?”Briana rolled her eyes impatiently.There was no way around it: when Briana pleased one, the other would whinny. She would never be able to please both selfish women at the same time!Karl felt this too, taking his girlfriend by the shoulders. “Come on, honey. This is getting tiresome.”“I’m not leaving until this is resolved!” Luana fumed.Celia grabbed her hair in a clear sign of desperation. “For God’s sake, Luana, what else do you want from my life?!”“I want you away from my man!”“You reported me to Briana, saying I’m sleeping with various guys! How is that staying close to your man?”Luana approached, with a devilish smile, responding in a calm but cruel tone, “It’s just that you’re only sleeping with all those actors to provoke Karl, to make him jealous!”SLAP!Celia saw red, no longer in control of her actions. The slap was so hard that Celia’s fingernail scr
Chapter 689 Who Is the Mysterious Man
Already in the bathtub, relaxed and leaning against one of the edges with the help of a towel around his neck, Mark felt like a king. With relaxing Buddhist-toned music in the background and scented candles, he for a while didn't think about problems or confusion.He just missed his beloved wife.After relaxing enough, Mark leaned over to grab his cell phone. Upon accessing his inbox, he found the video. Before pressing on the content to watch, Mark’s face tensed.‘It’s very likely that this mysterious man saw the camera and positioned himself so that his face wouldn’t be visible. If he was so determined not to tell Mauro who he was, that could have happened...’Already preparing for the worst, Mark pressed the screen. But what he saw surprised him.The man was near Mark’s preferred parking spot, pointing it out to Mauro as if asking if that’s where Mark parked (which indeed happened).Mark managed to see the man’s face......But he couldn’t see any resemblance or recognition!“Who ar
Chapter 690 Signs
Moments later, Briana returned, looking a bit green. Celia had a strange expression, chewing another cube of sponge cake.“I think I ate something that made me sick.” Briana sat down, looking at the small plate.Celia shook her index finger. “No! Don’t think that! It wasn’t the sponge cake, it’s delicious!”“Tasty food can also make us sick,” Briana reasoned.“You’d better take a pregnancy test.” Celia suddenly smiled. “Have you thought about the possibility?”Briana felt a jolt. Last time, it was a false alarm...“I don’t want to be disappointed again, Celia. I already took a test, but it wasn’t true. Mark was very devastated!”“When was that?” Celia asked, surprised by the information.Briana was about to answer, but first, she realized something.“It was... it was during Viviana’s reign of terror at the company!” She reacted in astonishment. “Oh, my God! Was I feeling the side effects of the aphrodisiac and mistook them for pregnancy signs?”Celia was also indignant. A medicine mad
