2022-01-17 18:26:52Igor 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."
"I can't let her go, she's mine!" Igor yells in disbelief.
Josias's eyes widen, "But, it's exactly this unreasonable and domineering posture that Stacy doesn't want in her life anymore, Igor! Don't you realize you just sounded like Marcelo?"
William sneers, sa

William can't help but smile slightly, "So, Stacy, you still regret not being Melissa's sister-in-law? There's still time for you to correct that gap in your life." Stacy feels shivers come down her spine. William is now looking very sexy and attractive wearing a pinstriped suit and tie to match his attire. His Oxford shoes are so shiny they seem to reflect the image of the person looking at them as a mirror. That bum and slacker William who used to watch TV all day in Josias's penthouse is gone! Stacy smiles satisfyingly at the sight of William changed for the better, "Good morning, William. Have you made a reservation?" "Unfortunately, no. But, you still haven't answered my question. Do you want to marry me?" He glances at Kelvin, "Or do you want to marry this one?" Kelvin shakes his hand

Stacy and Kelvin feel like they don't have time to play in a TV melodrama.Customers arrive behind William and Kelvin pushes him to speak to them not subtly, "Good morning, gentlemen! Do you have a reserved table?"Stacy holds back a laugh, offending William."What's the fun?" William questions through gritted teeth."You are the joke." Stacy composes herself, "You didn't want to forgive me after knowing what happened to me; now you don't have the right to know how my love life is going anymore.""You mean you've resumed your love life?" William asks furiously."No, but if I took it back, you'd be the last to know!" Stacy responds in the same tone.Kelvin senses danger and addresses Stacy, "Stacy, will you kindly lead these gentlemen to table 07?"Stacy takes advantage and leads the customers to get rid of William.Daryl appears across the salon, "What's going on here?"Kelvin turns to his brother, "The security c

Vernon shakes his head and closes the door, "What are you talking about, Elza? Why do you want to punch the runner-up in the contest we had in 1988?""It's because she's causing the laughing stock of my favorite magazine, and you!" Elza stands with her arms crossed and has a fierce look in her eyes, "And I also heard some rumors while walking through the hallways."Vernon rolls his eyes impatiently, "Argh, don't tell me you believe I had sex with her, is that it? That lie would make sense if I slept with Isabel Freire because she was the champion!"Elza approaches Vernon in two steps and slaps him, "You bastard! You really wanted to sleep with that semi-literate, huh?"Vernon almost collapses with inertia from the slap, "Of course not, are you crazy?""Well, I wanted to slap this Marcia, but I wasted my energy on you." Elza shrugs and continues, "So when are you going to start publishing the third-place writer's story?"Vernon turns redder t

Josias and Elza squirm with laughter at the disastrous serialized story Vernon is publishing in Maggiezine.After Josias wipes away tears of laughter, he comments, "Mom, although the first scientists started making plastic around 1800, plastic as we know it didn't come into being until the 1930s."Elza marvels at her son's intelligence. Sure enough, he learned that in the Civil Engineering course he took, "Wow, son, very well. I didn't know that, but I sure as hell can't imagine something like a plastic bowl in the 18th century. Whoever wrote this story didn't do any research.""And that bothers you?" Josias wants to get to the bottom of the matter."Yes, because your father still thinks the rest of the story is worth publishing!" Elza breaks her smile, "His colleagues say that Vernon slept with that clumsy female writer!"Josias narrows his eyes and doesn't quickly believe the rumor, "He slept with the writer and her story came in second place?"

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

In the Vaztrans offices, William extended a freshly written check to Sofia. Standing nearby, Alan wore a solemn expression, watching the transaction with quiet attention.“Here you go, my dear partner,” William said with finality. “This is our salvation.”Sofia took the check and her eyes widened with disbelief. “The bank’s never going to cash this much for Suzy,” she muttered.William shrugged indifferently. “Then they’ll figure out another way to get the money back to her.”Alan leaned forward, trying to get a better look at the amount. “My dad’s being pretty generous, huh?”“Thank God,” Sofia said. 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. What do you think, honey?”Alan chuckled and leaned over, placing a gentle kiss on the crown of her head. “She’ll love that.”Still serious, William interjected, “So, who’s going to break the news?”Alan’s

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. He knows Miguel Damascene personally — he’s the current owner.”Thierry clenched his jaw. “And there’s more. My wife is Little Theo’s sister—”

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
