Chapter 821 Unusual Way of Waking Up
Outside Sweet Aroma, Mark stood with his phone in hand, scanning the street as he waited for Mr. Fagundes. Passersby glanced curiously at him, wondering if he intended to enter or merely loiter at the entrance.“Good morning, Linda,” he said into the phone.Inside the operations center, Linda was already at her station, surrounded by subordinates hunched over their desks and cubicles.“Good morning, Lord Ferro,” she replied smoothly. “Any orders?”“How are things at Chrisostomos Construtores?”A light laugh escaped her. “They’re all pressing Fagundes, eager for him to deliver the perfect design for your baby’s room.”“As one of my companies, I expect only the best,” Mark said firmly. “And I know Fagundes won’t disappoint me.”“On behalf of all of us, allow me to extend our congratulations and best wishes to Lady Ferro.”“We accept them,” he answered coolly. “Now, some guidance.”“I’m listening.”“If anyone from Rocha Constructions calls about Katrina’s request for a design, they may s
Chapter 822 The Unique Project
Jake’s absence meant he had no idea of the raucous celebration taking place in honor of his girlfriend’s departure.At the offices of Glamour, Briana appeared at the corridor that led to the editorial department and was stunned to see crowds of employees streaming out, laughing, buzzing with joy.Staff from the magazine mingled with actors and crew from ‘Colorful Kisses’ and ‘Times of Glory’, the air thick with festivity.“Manager Vasconcelos!” some of them called. “Come in, there’s still food left for you!”Briana blinked, bewildered. “What is this? Someone’s birthday?”From the heart of the revelry emerged Luana and Karl, radiant with laughter, wearing absurd party cones on their heads. Luana blew a paper tongue at her with childlike glee.“Brie! You’re just in time to grab some brioches,” she teased.Briana’s eyes narrowed. “You celebrated Celia’s departure.”It wasn’t a question, it was a realization.“Hey, don’t look at us,” Karl said quickly, though his smile betrayed him. “It a
Chapter 823 She Wants to Compete with Everything
Moments later, the two men were on their way to Briana’s office.Yet in the corridors of Glamour they encountered Mary Ellen, sweeping what looked like a DUNE of confetti and shredded paper into a growing pile.From behind the editorial department came the scrape of chairs and the dragging of desks, signs of order being restored after chaos.“Very well, everyone, the party’s over!” Efraim’s voice carried out.Mark stopped short. “Mary Ellen, what on earth happened here?”Still flushed with excitement, she beamed. “Good morning, Mark! We had a little celebration for the cleansing of Glamour.”Mark rolled his eyes, putting two and two together: Celia’s dismissal.“For God’s sake, how you people hate that woman,” he muttered. “I know her departure was a relief, but this is excessive.”Mary Ellen’s smile faded. “Would you believe s
Chapter 824 An E-mail
Mark crossed the room in long, purposeful strides, his eyes fixed on Briana.“What happened here?” he demanded.Luana lifted her hands as if to temper his sharp tone. “Mark, please, keep calm. Brie was just telling me what Katrina has been plotting.”Mark got the answer, and his voice softened. “I see. Darling, this is the architect, Aloísio Fagundes. He will help us create the finest room for our firstborn.”Briana turned her gaze toward Fagundes with quiet respect, while the man himself nearly faltered, struggling to resist the urge to bow in Luana’s presence.Sensing the moment, Luana released Briana’s hands and rose promptly. “I’ll go check on the ‘Colorful Kisses’ studios.”Mark allowed himself a dry smile. “I imagine the staff must be working hard by now.”Luana caught his veiled reference to the earlier party, returned his smile kno
Chapter 825 Assistant vs CEO’s Wife
Celia walked briskly through the corridors of Vasconcelos Company, a folder of documents in her hands, though her true purpose was far less professional.The papers were merely a prop, a pretense that allowed her to move freely while her sharp eyes scanned every attractive man in sight, committing each specimen to memory for later indulgence in some secluded corner of the building.Her pace slowed as she approached a cluster of janitors — robust, virile men whose sheer physicality seemed designed to tempt her.They could move heavy bins with effortless strength, their muscles straining beneath the fabric of their uniforms.Celia’s gaze lingered like a predator assessing its prey.One of them caught her staring and winked boldly. His aviator-style jumpsuit hung loose, the zipper tugged halfway down to reveal a hairy chest and the wide, taut expanse of his torso.It took every ounce of her willpower to keep walking, her thoughts sp
Chapter 826 Christopher Is Back Home
Sterling University Square, morning.The air was filled with the solemnity of achievement and the anticipation of futures yet to be written. Several days had passed since the last events, and now it was Christopher Vasconcelos’s turn to shine.His graduation ceremony was underway, with the chosen valedictorian addressing the audience while proud relatives filled the rows of seats.Claudia, true to form, dabbed at her eyes with a handkerchief, eager to appear the ever-emotional mother.Gilson sat beside her, beaming with paternal pride.Katrina, unable to conceal her admiration, wore her enthusiasm openly, while Althea, draped in elegance and topped with a broad hat against the sun, resembled a British lady of impeccable composure.When the moment arrived for each student to receive the diploma and ceremonial scroll, Katrina’s restraint shattered.As Christopher’s name was called, she sprang to her feet, clapping and
Chapter 827 Sunday with Flowers
It was a quiet Sunday morning at the Ferro House.Briana sat on the balcony’s chaise lounge, the glow of her tablet reflecting in her eyes as she skimmed through the morning’s headlines.To her surprise, the Sterling University graduation had managed to secure prominent coverage.Not that commencement ceremonies were usually front-page news, but this one had earned attention because of Christopher’s presence.On the screen, a photograph captured him mid-gesture, waving toward his family. The journalists, oblivious, had misinterpreted the moment, writing as though the wave had been directed at their cameras.Further down the article, however, the tone turned sharper: paragraphs dissected Katrina’s scandalous display, describing in detail how she had leapt to her feet, clapping so loudly and so long that she had obstructed the view of those behind her.Briana’s lips curled into a wicked smile. She was hardly surpr
Chapter 828 A Gift to Our Friends
Briana wandered back into the kitchen after her bath and a change into another set of comfortable clothes, her cheeks still fresh with the glow of the garden’s air.Julian, clad in his chef’s whites, stood at the stove, stirring with meticulous care a pan of chicken simmering in butter and milk. The rich fragrance of garlic and spices floated through the room, filling the air with warmth and promise.Yet Mark barely registered the aroma, his mind was fixed entirely on what his wife had just said.“You want to gift WHAT to Luana?” he asked with astonishment.Briana, feigning the innocence of a mischievous schoolgirl, replied, “Our island. Oh, don’t tell me that little secluded place where we spent our honeymoon isn’t yours.”Mark pressed his hand to his chin. That island — the scene of their torrid, scandalous, and altogether forbidden honeymoon — was a subject he had never spoken of again.
Chapter 829 Christopher Wants to Talk
In the vast vestibule of the Vasconcelos Mansion, the family assembled with expectation. Sandro, now properly dressed, descended the staircase beside Nadir, only to find that the rest of the family had already gathered, their impatience barely hidden as they awaited Christopher’s return.Claudia, ever keen on her little performances, cast a mocking smile at Nadir and slipped her arm possessively around Gilson’s waist.He, delighted, responded in kind, pulling his wife close.Nadir merely shook her head, unimpressed, wondering why Claudia insisted on flaunting such gestures as though they might provoke jealousy.‘As if that could unsettle me,’ she thought, scoffing inwardly. ‘I have my husband and a lover, when time allows. Poor fool, she doesn’t even realize it!’Althea, matriarchal and serene, remained detached from the silent duel between her daughters-in-law. Her eyes stayed fixed on the entrance, as though her anticipation for her grandson’s return eclipsed all else.“Another gran
Chapter 830 Could That Desert Island Belong to Mark?
At the Ferro House, Mark and Briana sat together at the table in the dining room, their meal being served by Julian, who moved with his usual calm precision.Yet behind his composed exterior, the cook trembled with unease, shaken by Nadir’s recent summons.Mark held his phone against his ear, waiting for the other line to pick up.Julian, forcing a casual tone, ventured timidly, “Lord Ferro, may I ask permission to be absent this afternoon?”“If it’s for meeting a young lady,” Mark replied without missing a beat, “then don’t rush back. Just remember to send me an invitation to the wedding.”Startled, Julian nearly dropped the platter of roast pork loin spiced with Indian herbs. Briana burst into laughter at the sight.“Stop tormenting our poor cook, darling,” she chided warmly.Julian attempted a strained smile. “Lord Ferro has always been playful, my Lady. If you’ll excuse me... enjoy your meal.”He withdrew hastily, knowing he could never send such an invitation to his employers.Na
