Chapter 3332 Do We Know the Driver Who Fled?
At General Hospital, William stood by the windowpane of his father’s room, watching Simeon lying peacefully on the bed, his frail body resting after the long surgery.The rhythmic hum of medical machines filled the air, an unsettling reminder that his father’s life was hanging by a thread.Beside him, Dr. Matthew Hogan looked uneasy, his expression revealing what his words had yet to convey.“You’re going to pull through, old man,” William whispered, his voice catching slightly. Then, turning to the doctor, he asked, “What are his chances, Dr. Hogan?”Matthew hesitated. Though years of practice had hardened him to the sight of suffering, he still found moments like this unbearable. “Mr. Campos... I’m not quite sure how to tell you this.”“Tell me,” William pressed. “I’d rather hear the brutal truth.”The doctor took a slow breath. “Your father should’ve woken up by now. There’s no longer any sign of internal bleeding or damage to vital organs.”William’s eyes darkened. “Then why isn’t
Chapter 3331 João Paulo on the Scene
Dylan stood on the busy street where the hit-and-run had taken place. Cars continued to rush past, horns blaring, as if nothing had happened.He frowned deeply, surveying the area. No police tape. No cones. No sense of order.“Argh... no one even bothered to block off the area,” he muttered under his breath.“Ah, Inspector Amoreira,” came a familiar voice from behind him. João Paulo approached with his usual half-smile. “I came to gather some details for tomorrow’s column.”“Good evening, Mr. Queiroz,” Dylan greeted him with a weary nod. “Unfortunately, as you can see, the street wasn’t isolated.”João Paulo took out his phone, ready to type notes. “What do we know so far?”Dylan looked around, his eyes scanning the pavement where faint traces of blood had already been washed away by passing rain. “Mrs. Campos, according to her grandson Caio Campos, said the driver fled the scene. Witnesses mentioned a black car.”João Paulo’s brow arched with mischief. “A black car, huh? Those never
Chapter 3330 Not Just a Hit-And-Run
At Campos Pizzeria, the smell of melted cheese and oregano filled the air as Dylan wove through waiters carrying steaming trays of pizza to hungry customers. He spotted his pregnant sister sitting at a corner table, devouring a massive calabrese pizza topped with ham, mozzarella, black olives, and an indulgent sprinkle of grated parmesan.Dylan chuckled as he approached. “So this is the emergency you called me for?”Brigitte fought against a stubborn strand of mozzarella that refused to break as she chewed. “Mmm... delicious...” she mumbled, finally swallowing before glancing up with mock surprise. “Oh, Dylan! You came!”He slid into the seat across from her, his tone teasing but firm. “A cop’s life is hectic, sis. So if you could get straight to the point...”“Come on,” she said playfully. “You’re busy, sure, but never too busy for your favorite sister. We need your help.”At that, Caio joined them at the table, his expression serious as he sat beside his wife.Dylan immediately noti
Chapter 3329 Josias Is Located
Josias entered the Rocha Mansion, already removing his jacket as he spotted Hector waiting, always attentive, in the vestibule. The butler immediately stepped forward to collect it.“Good evening, sir. How was the inspection in Guarapari?” Hector asked, his tone polite yet uncertain.“Exhausting,” Josias replied, loosening his tie. “Everything in order around here?”Hector hesitated. “Well... not exactly.”Before Josias could ask more, Ignacio and Mary came rushing into the hall, both visibly agitated.“Uncle Josias, thank goodness you’re back!” Ignacio exclaimed.“Mom’s been trying to reach you all evening!” Mary added, breathless.Josias frowned, pulling his phone from his pocket. Indeed, it was still on silent from earlier in the day.The screen showed a long list of missed calls from Melissa and others.He sighed, bracing himself. “All right, you can tell me what happened.”“Grandpa Simeon was hit by a car,” Mary said tearfully. “He’s in the hospital.”“The driver ran away,” Ignac
Chapter 3328 We Have a Volunteer
At the Mountain family’s penthouse, the atmosphere around the long mahogany dining table was one of strategy disguised as supper. Crystal glasses shimmered under the warm chandelier as Daryl raised his wine in a toast.Diane gazed through the wide windows, where the moon cast silver light over the city. “Do you really think this plan will work?”“Have faith, my dear,” Daryl said smoothly, lifting his glass higher. “Never doubt it. To the plan.”Everyone echoed the toast in unison.Tony, in mid-bite of ravioli, mumbled through a mouthful, “Do we have candidates?”Karen leaned back in her chair. “If Claudio Guzman were available, he’d be perfect. I modeled with him back in the day.”Diane smirked. “You mean the guy who’s always naked and seducing some unsuspecting girl? Yes, he’d be ideal for Suzy the Slut— but alas.”Kelvin tapped his fork thoughtfully. “We’ve got Neilton, an ebony guy: women lose their minds over him. J.J. seems serious about Sarah, so we can’t involve him. Dr. Matthe
Chapter 3327 Two Pieces of News: One Good, One Bad
Back at the pizzeria, William grabbed his coat, trembling.“Dad’s been hit by a car — hit and run. Damn cowards!”“Dad, we’re coming with you!” Caio said, alarmed.“No, son. Stay here,” William insisted, already halfway out the door.Brigitte tried to lighten the tension. “Don’t worry, this won’t harm the baby, Father-in-law.”“I just need someone to look after the place,” William said hurriedly.Caio exchanged a look with Brigitte and nodded.“Alright, we’ll stay. I’ll call Aunt Melissa and the others, in case Grandma hasn’t.”“She’s too shaken to make calls,” William said, embracing his son tightly before rushing out.Brigitte sighed. “I’ll sit down, darling.”Caio nodded. “I’ll order a calabrese with bacon, and spread the bad news.”He took out his phone but didn’t even dial before it started buzzing.“Alan’s calling,” he muttered. “Does he already know?” He answered. “Hey, Alan?”Alan’s voice was bright, almost bursting through the speaker.“Caio, perfect timing!
