Pamela returns from the street with shopping bags. Cristina and Moacyr decide to approach her to help with her marriage mess.
"Honey, can we talk?" Cristina does the question.
Pamela grimaces meaning the contrary, "I'm not in the mood, Mom. I need to make lunch and there's nothing ready to be reused."
"It won't take long." Cristina insists and even blocks her way, "It upsets me a little to see you unhappy. Are you sure you can't live peacefully with your husband?"
"No, we're not sure of anything," Pamela responds fiercely.
Moacyr tries to advise her, "Daughter, we know that what Beto did was something reprehensible, but time has passed and Caio will not return to this building. You need to get on with your life, for Rosemary and Pedro."
Pamela casts a disdainful look at Moacyr, "Excuse me, I didn't ask for your opinion. I know you're my mother's boyfriend, but I ask you not to intrude."
"Pamela, I don't allow this!" Cristina gets angr

Uélton is equally embarrassed to see Josias outside. The way he's wrapped himself in the blanket doesn't quite cover him up, letting Josias see he's naked."I'm not even going to ask the classic 'Am I interrupting something' because I definitely am!" Josias comments good-naturedly."Come in, buddy!" Uélton gives space and Josias enters, "Ehr... what time is it?""It's almost six o'clock." Josias replies, "Why didn't you wait until later?"Josias looks around the living room: the two sofas are in a bizarre position, indicating that they have been pushed around because of vigorous and violent sexual activity. Books, records, and a lamp were knocked over. It looked like a WWII scene!Uélton narrows his eyes trying to locate himself. Six pm? That means they've been since...

"I found it interesting what you talked about helping Seu Harold." Melissa turns off the dryer, "Because João Paulo was here today." Josias straightens up in the tub and opens his eyes, "What did my brother come here for?" "He came to question me about the enmity between his parents and the Freire family." Melissa stores the dryer in the drawer of one of the dressers, "Obviously, I avoided the subject." Josias is not comfortable with this, "You shouldn't shy away, dear. João Paulo is bothered about this war and wants to understand what's going on." Mel

"Dear mother-in-law, did you see what a horrible story Maggiezine put in place of yours?" Flavia asks disdainfully. "I haven't had a chance to read it yet," Isabel answers truthfully. But Flavia saw scoff and malice in Isabel's words and giggled ironically, "Of course, you haven't read it; you won't waste time with loser's stories. You're already writing the second book, correct?"

Igor is prepared to answer Josias's questions. "Josias, I know at first this might seem crazy. I didn't expect to fall in love with Stacy under the circumstances. But seeing her so desperate and unprotected... and knowing that it was my brother who caused her suffering... something inside of me says I must reward her." Josias smiles slightly, trying to help him, "Igor, remember that it's precisely because you're Marcelo's brother that Stacy might not want to date you." William, still hidden, nods frowning. Igor lost his mind? "So don't react as you've already won the contest." Josias continues to advise Igor, "If Stacy decides to date another guy, you have to let her go."

At Café Montanha, Rodrigo returned from the supermarket and took a long, satisfied look around his bustling business. Customers chatted over coffee and snacks, while Neilton and the other waiters moved about swiftly and professionally, serving with ease.“Hey, Rod! What’s up?” Neilton called out with a grin.Rodrigo replied, “Neil, sometimes I envy you for not having a mountain of problems.”Laughing, Neilton shot back, “And I envy you for having a big, noisy family.”Rodrigo paused, swallowing hard. “I’m sorry.”“Nah, I’m just joking — well, maybe not. I do wish I had at least a younger brother.”Rodrigo chuckled lightly. “Whenever I need to, I talk to Veronica over video call. Anyway, I meant the problems at the supermarket.”They made their way to the counter.“Still that issue with the truck from Bezerra Farm?” Neilton asked.“That’s resolved. But now we know why it happened.” Rodrigo lowered his voice, glancing around. “Be careful with the Borges brothers. They’re not who we thou

At the Vaztrans office, Suzy walked in expecting to find Sofia at her desk. Instead, she was surprised to see Alan there alone.She had no idea she was about to be handled like livestock on its way to the slaughterhouse.“Alan, what a surprise. What are you doing here? Where’s Sofia?” she asked.Alan leaned back with a hint of irony in his tone. “Which of those two questions should I answer?”Suzy paused, confused by the odd remark.“We need to talk, Suzy,” he continued, pushing a check across the desk.Suzy’s breath caught as she picked it up and read the staggering amount.“This check...?” she whispered.“It’s the amount you invested in Vaztrans, plus ten percent in compensation, as outlined in your contract,” Alan explained coolly.“You’re... returning my investment?” she asked, her voice tight.“Exactly. We no longer require your partnership, Miss Cogo.”Suzy’s eyes narrowed. “May I ask what this is about?”“It’s simple,” Alan said, calm but firm. “My wife believes you’re not cont

A relieved smile crept onto her face. “Any doubts I had about being accepted into this family are gone.” She brightened, holding the check delicately. “I’m even going to text Caroline.

At the Lafayette Mansion, in the elegantly furnished living room, Thierry was seething with fury. The revelation that criminals had used his supermarket as a stage for their schemes infuriated him.“How dare those idiots?” he barked. “And what about Leonardo? Isn’t he the top lawyer at Damascene Lawyers?”J.J. answered with a grim tone. “Apparently being a lawyer for the most prestigious firm in Lagoon City has become some sort of cover for him.”Rodrigo, firm and resolute, added, “Well, then we’ll have to tear that cover off. Brigitte and Little Theo can’t have their reputations stained.”“And let’s not forget,” J.J. continued, “my father is a client of that firm.

Despite his age, William still had the charm of a man who once graced soccer fields and magazine covers, and Mary’s friends were more than a little impressed.“My mom still keeps pictures of Mr. Campos from the ’80s,” one of her friends whispered to another, watching them dance. “He was such a heartthrob when he played soccer.”“I think my mom mentioned him too,” the second girl replied with a laugh.Andrew, catching a bit of their conversation, raised an eyebrow. “What are you girls talking about?”With mock innocence, the first friend smirked. “Jealous, Andrew? Don’t be. He’s just her hot uncle.”Andrew rolled his eyes, not rising to the bait. He knew exactly who William was.Meanwhile, William glanced around the dance floor and smiled at his niece. “I think I’m confusing your suitors, Mary.”“Let them be confused,” she replied sweetly. “I’m having a blast, Uncl

The heated discussion between Suzy and her boyfriend’s family showed no sign of calming down.“I can’t believe this!” Suzy exclaimed, her voice tight with indignation. “You all actually think I’m in love with Luís Vasquez!”Karen raised an eyebrow, her tone biting. “You’re not?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Suzy barked back. “I’m in love with Felipe — I love him!”Kelvin, unmoved, folded his arms. “Just not as much as you love your money and your... ‘investments.’”Diane lifted a hand, hoping to bring reason to the conversation. “Suzy, I’ve turned a deaf ear to all the gossip about you. I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane...

It was time to drop the bomb.“According to my uncle Eugenio,” she began, “Felipe barged into his office and announced that he wanted to break up with me — because my uncle was happy about me being featured on the cover of Maggiezine.”Everyone looked even more stunned.“Wait, what does that have to do with anything?” Kelvin asked, frowning.Suzy explained, “Felipe saw my uncle thanking Luís for sort of encouraging me to accept the interview with Maggie.”Daryl exhaled sharply. “So my son just had a jealous outburst. That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you
