Angela enters Rocha Constructions at the same time Uélton intended to leave.“Uélton, can we talk, please?”Uélton is surprised by the request, “Madam, I need to go to the construction site.”“I don't intend to delay. There's something I want to work out with you.”Uélton is suspicious, “Well then. Do I stay right here in the lobby?”“No, let's talk in the privacy of the kitchen.” Angela gestures for Uélton to follow her.After they enter the empty kitchen, Angela closes the door leaving Uélton fearful.“You're not going to kill me, are you?”Angela sneers, “Are you always like this, clueless about saying the most absurd things?”Uélton finds the question funny, “Oh, I know! Will you ask me to discipline my tongue? Madam, Josias has been asking me this since 1982 without success.”Angela becomes stern, “And you pride yourself on being indiscreet and irresponsible with your words? Do you find it amusing to hint to my fiancé that he should go back to Melissa?”Uélton understands where A
Angela is astonished to hear Uélton say that she is doing Josias a favor by putting doubts in his heart.“Did I hear right?” Angela hisses, “The best friend says he's doing good to leave Josias torn between two women?”“I don't want Josias divided.” Uélton replies, “I want Josias 100% in Melissa. That was Everaldo's prophecy.”Angela pretends not to be upset with Everaldo, “I... I don't believe in such nonsense. Everaldo is a human being like us, he doesn't make prophecies. Everything Josias has achieved is thanks to his hard work.”Uélton smiles mischievously, “Come on, you noticed that Everaldo didn't mention you. Now you are nervous, worried about when Josias will break off the engagement.”“He will break up because of your fault!” Angela screams furiously.“No, he will break up because he's come to his senses and realized that it doesn't make any sense for him to be engaged to the woman who destroyed the perfect marriage. I don't blame the other concubine, Katherine.”In this, Ang
The next day, Gustavo decides to put Angela’s option into practice. She's right, Katherine stays at home all day doing nothing, just eating, sleeping, and making love to him. Expenses have increased because of her, now she has to help with the bills.So, over breakfast, he starts the conversation, “Kate, today I'm going to get a job for you. What can you do besides sex?”Katherine chokes on her coffee and coughs violently to clear her throat, “Cof, cof! What? Do you by any chance think I am worthless?”Gustavo responds with an ironic smile, “Okay, show me your work card full of stamps from countless companies.”Katherine is embarrassed. Did she only come into the world to be despised and humiliated? “Ehr... I don't even have a work card. Remember that I came from the countryside to marry Josias.”Gustavo rolls his eyes, “Okay, don't start the litany again. I'll recommend you a job at Ramos Supermarket. As you have no experience, maybe Roberto Reis will give you a light and easy job, s
Gustavo enters Beto's office to plead for a vacancy for idle Katherine.“Good morning, Mr. Reis.”“You are Gustavo, correct?” Beto tries to remember, “What can I help you with?”Gustavo keeps standing, “I have a girlfriend who lives all day scratching her butt at home, and the bills need to be paid. I promised her to see if there's a way to fit her here in the company.”Beto smiles slightly, “She has experience as a supermarket cashier or general services?”“No, she only knows how to have sex,” Gustavo responds shamelessly.Beto bursts out laughing, “What is this, man? Are you harboring a streetwalker like ‘Pretty Woman’?”“Nothing like that.” Gustavo realizes that highlighting Katherine's unique talent won't result in her getting a job, “Ehr... you know her, she's Miss Bezerra.”At this, Beto laughs louder, tilting his head back, “No chance, Gustavo! You must get rid of this bitch immediately. I just talked to Will Campos about how the dishonored woman destroys a man's life. She's go
Uélton gets up and strokes his wife's hair.“Don't worry, my love. That evil woman will do nothing with it. Unless she wants to lose everything she has achieved so far.”“The mansion, the title of Mrs. Rocha, the bastard's paternal acknowledgment...” Flavia nods, “Yes, if Josias knows she's against you, he'll send her back to the Capital.”“Yes, so she becomes friends with Pamela and Vera Reis.” Uélton jokes.Flavia also gets up, “Sometimes I wonder if these two have found normal jobs or are acting like prostitutes to make ends meet.”“Beto tells Josias that Vera Reis 'works' as a striper in an illegal nightclub, where clients force her to get drunk, use drugs, and have sex with her. So she is no more than forty.”Flavia shakes her head, the subject is unpleasant for her, “Anyway, honey, let's forget about these whores and mind our own business, okay? Our son is turning nine and he needs his dad there more than ever.”Uélton and Flávia exchange a light kiss.******At LCN, Veronica me
Daniel is surprised to see Veronica Montanha enter his office flanked by Melissa and Isabel.“Are the best writers I have bringing in a future star?”Melissa accepts the compliment, “Thanks for the compliment. Daniel, Veronica is looking for an opportunity in the soap opera world.”Veronica and Daniel shake hands. Daniel's smile is very wide.“Okay, I'm flattered to see you look up to LCN.”“I want to honor the broadcaster in my city,” Veronica responds.“Have a seat, ladies.” Daniel gestures and the three women sit down.Melissa takes the floor, “Daniel, I'm not sure about letting Veronica on my soap opera because we're waiting for the answer about the renewal for the second season. But in Isabel's case...”Isabel concludes, “There is a character that will be perfect for her.”Daniel nods, “Well, it's no mystery to anyone that 'Love Just Happens' will be renewed for a third season. So I agree with Melissa. It will be safer to include our dear Veronica in a show that we already know w
At Marçal Publishing, Bernardo and Maggie talk affectionately about an internal article dedicated especially to them and Henrique. The photo of the baby about to turn one year enchanted countless readers.“Our baby will grow up to be a beautiful boy.” Bernard admires him.“Yes, and so I have to buy a carbine.” Maggie gets off his lap.“Why a carbine?” Bernardo raises his eyebrows, “To teach him how to shoot?”“No, so I can shoot sluts who'll want to hook him.” Maggie crosses her arms.Bernardo laughs, “Then start saving enough ammo. According to our readers, Henrique will displace Jack Motta.”“Schi!” Maggie calls for silence with her index finger to her mouth, “Don't mention the forbidden name!”Bernardo stops enjoying himself, “Why? Who forbade it?”“When we mention the forbidden name, my mother appears out of nowhere!”Bernardo stands up indignantly, “Maggie, we walked away from her precisely so you can stop thinking about this bullshit.”Suddenly the door opens, “But that's where
Carmen and Cristina are unsure whether to let Dora in. They've long thought they shouldn't fraternize with the Campos family because of William.However, Carmen nods and Cristina risks opening the door, “Hello, Dora!”Dora is ready to demolish the walls and barriers, “Good afternoon, Cristina! I came to see the new mother and the new resident of Lagoon City. Can I enter?”“Of course, come in and make yourself comfortable.” Carmen passes by.Dora addresses Carmen, “Hello, dear. Have you mastered the art of breastfeeding?”“Yes, Dora, thank you so much for coming.”Dora sits on another couch, “I think we need to talk about a topic that is making me upset.”Cristina cleverly asks, “Why are we going to talk if it upsets you?”Dora doesn't get the word out, “No jokes, Cris. Looks like you already know what it's about. When we wanted to throw a party to celebrate Melissa and Kelvin’s engagement, obviously Daryl invited Diane, who invited you guys.”It's Carmen and Cristina who get awkward.
