Chapter 3356 The End of the Investment Whore
At Café Montanha, Luís approached the counter, stunned by what Jake and Rodrigo had just said.“What does that mean?” he demanded. “Is Suzy really leaving the city? For what reason?”“That wasn’t for you to shout to the whole world,” Jake replied sourly.“Maybe it’s better this way,” Rodrigo said playfully. “Now the people can set off fireworks.”Jake shrugged. “Well, Luís, since you’re VERY interested...”“Wait,” Luís interrupted, shaking his head. “I heard that last part. What did Suzy decide?”“I still don’t know,” Jake answered. “Knowing my stubborn sister, she might very well stay just to end up convicted and thrown in jail.”“Why the hell would she choose something like that?” Luís asked, bewildered.“I don’t know,” Jake said. “I think she feels she has a mission to defeat every person she hates.” Then, with ironic emphasis, he added, “Except you.”“There’s nothing between me and her,” Luís said quickly. “I’m getting to know someone else.”“Yes, Andressa Farina,” Rodrigo replied
Chapter 3355 Things Don’t Change
Caroline and Sofia sat at opposite ends of the sofa in Sofia and Alan’s suite as if the very cushions between them served as a buffer for old grievances.“Well, Sofia,” Caroline began carefully, “how are things? They gave me a general overview, but I want to hear it from you.”Sofia’s expression remained perfectly neutral. “With William and Daryl’s help, I managed to bring Vaztrans to profit for two consecutive years.”Caroline cleared her throat. “I heard Suzy Cogo was involved...”“And I knew how to expel that tramp with mastery the moment I realized she’d be a problem,” Sofia said sharply.“That’s good,” Caroline replied, trying to maintain composure. “Now it’s a matter of counting on continued success.”“Yes.” Sofia let out a slow sigh. “And what about you, Carol? Now that you’re planning to move back here, how is that going to work?”“How is what going to work...?” Caroline asked, already wary.“You and Reuben ran away to get married just so you wouldn’t have me at your wedding,”
Chapter 3354 Pack Your Bags Now
Alan and Caroline stepped into the suite he shared with Sofia. Sofia stood beside the crib, quietly watching little Carla sleep. She was still in her nightgown, but a matching jacket draped over her shoulders made her look a bit more composed.When she finally lifted her head, surprise tightened her features. She already knew Caroline had returned, but she had made no effort to see her until now.“Hi, darling... hello, Caroline,” she said cautiously.“It’s been a long time, Sofia,” Caroline replied, her voice neutral. She nodded toward the crib. “May I see her?”“Of course.” Sofia stepped aside. “Darling, I need to talk to you.”While Caroline admired the sleeping baby, Sofia led Alan to a quiet corner.“I heard your grandfather was transferred to the Rocha Mansion,” she said in a low voice.“That’s right.” His tone softened with melancholy. “Better he pass at home than in the cold sterility of a hospital.”“How sad,” she murmured. “But if there’s no other way...” Her eyes flicked tow
Chapter 3353 Facing the Family
Jake decided it was finally time to confront the unbearable situation brewing within the family. He found them gathered in the apartment: Eugenio tense to the point of snapping, and Suzy even worse.“Well,” Jake began, stepping into the living room, “I think it’s time we talk about the inevitable, don’t you?”Eugenio tried to play dumb. “What are you talking about, Jake?”“About who ran over Simeon Campos,” Jake said, his voice steady.Suzy let out a desperate breath. “Jake, it was an accident!”“Was it?” he countered. He sank into the sofa with calculated calm. “Strange... people are saying you did it on purpose.”“I wasn’t the one driving!” she blurted.“I wasn’t driving either,” Jake replied, “but I was the one who ended up in jail. Why didn’t you say this earlier, Suzy?”She trembled. “I... I was afraid they’d throw me in prison just for being who I am.”Eugenio frowned deeply. “What are you talking about?”“Oh, come on!” Suzy snapped. “Do you really think these people are interes
Chapter 3352 Time to Make Amends?
Mary brightened the moment Kelvin appeared. “Dad! Come here.”He laughed. “Sweetheart, this is your mother’s house. I’m just a visitor.”Melissa’s smile widened as she rose from her chair. “Kelvin, you’ll always be more than a visitor.”Mary hugged him with the same enthusiasm she’d had as a little girl, and Kelvin held her tightly, thinking she would always be his princess.“How’s your relationship with that young man... Andrew?” he asked cautiously.“He’s been treating me with respect, Dad! No late-night adventures in the bushes by the beach,” she declared, horrified at the very idea.Kelvin felt his stomach twist into a knot at the thought of his little girl behaving in such an indecent way. Melissa stifled a laugh.“Well... good. I’m glad to hear that,” he managed. “Can I talk to your mother for a bit?”“Of course! And afterward, go visit Grandpa Simeon. He’s not awake, but the nurse said it might help.”She waved goodbye and slipped out, closing the door behind her.Kelvin sighed
Chapter 3351 My Lawyer and Judge
João Paulo stopped by the Cardozo store to see Helen. The sales manager allowed herself a brief pause to give her husband some attention. Around them, the place buzzed with customers eager to buy high-end makeup and luxury fragrances.“It’s such a sad situation they’re going through,” João Paulo murmured.“And to think,” Helen replied, indignant, “that all this time we were aiming our rifles at the wrong person...”He exhaled heavily. “I just hope Jake Cogo doesn’t turn bitter, taking after his younger sister’s awful behavior.”“You think he could?” she asked, uneasy.“With people like that, you never really know—”Helen nudged him. Jake had just walked up behind them, browsing the men’s cologne section.“Jake Cogo! Already making good use of your freedom, huh?” João Paulo greeted.Jake turned toward them with a faint smile. “Hey there. Mr. Queiroz, I wanted to thank you for the articles.”“Huh? Thank me?” João Paulo blinked. “Most people hate my pieces.”“Not me,” Jake said. “You cle
