Days passed, and Fabrício ended up being sentenced to prison. The news not only echoed throughout Lagoon City but also throughout Espírito Santo. Fabrício was treated as a dangerous maniac who deserved to stay behind bars until he rots.

In the meantime, Pamela and Carmen avoided contact with Melissa as much as possible. Melissa was eager to take on those two crooks, but her job as a secretary now took up part of her day. Dora and Simeon encouraged her to concentrate on work and forget about intrigue.

To improve Melissa's mood, Elisa visits her on a Monday, bringing a long-sleeved white blouse and a knee-length navy blue skirt for her to wear as a uniform. Melissa widens her eyes and delights in the dress. She feels the fabric with her fingers, just as Elisa had done with her old clothes.

"Elisa, it is evident that this outfit was not bought at a thrift store." Melissa praises.

"What a thrift store, dear, in our family we use the best

    At the Cardozo store, João Paulo and Helen were confused when a reader claimed that she enjoys reading the articles he publishes about Suzy. “Are you sure?” Helen asked, tallying the items the elderly lady had purchased. “Yes, what your husband writes is very funny. Funny and true.” The elderly lady took her purse and pulled out a credit card. “Or maybe, all the gossip we read about the unlucky businesswoman is a lie?” “My husband doesn’t write false news,” Helen replied quickly. “Well, that’s why we want a continuation.” The elderly lady smiled tenderly at João Paulo. After paying for her beauty products and taking the customer’s copy, the lady left. “I can’t believe this!” João Paulo chuckled joyfully. “You see, dear? You have fans who agree with your writing.” Helen smiled proudly. Melissa and Karen approached the checkout. “Why are you both so starstruck?” Melissa asked. “Did that elderly lady say something?” Karen asked, always eager for more gossip. “She said she like

    Alan and Sofia walked past the outside area of Vaztrans and saw a stern-looking Luís checking the condition of the bus fleet.“These buses have worn-out tires. Send them back to the workshop before they cause a traffic accident!” Luís yelled. “Worse than having Suzy Cogo with us is having the company discredited due to lack of fleet maintenance.”“Yes, Mr. Vasquez.” The inspector nodded, though a bit fearful.Alan whispered to his wife, “Honey, do you want to go home and let me handle this?”“Yes, I can’t get stressed out. Poor Luís...” Sofia made a sympathetic face and stepped away.Alan frowned. Sometimes, he wished Sofia didn’t care so much about her cousin...He approached Luís and forced a friendly smile. “Hey, Luís! Preventing accidents?”Luís turned to Alan with the same scowl. “Yes, we don’t want one of these tires exploding in the middle of Getúlio Vargas Avenue, right?”“Relax, Luís. I understand you’re upset about something else, but Vaztrans employees aren’t to blame.” Ala

  • Chapter 3295 Conversation with the Future Brother-in-Law

    Jake and Brendon were talking in the latter's office, at Angel’s Store. “Brendon, I’m counting on your help to dismantle the slander being spread about my dear little sister,” Jake said solemnly. “Leave that to me.” Brendon smiled, pleased to have killed two birds with one stone. “So, you must treat her with respect.” Jake raised his thumb. “I saw the magazine and how you were treating her. Did you happen to sneak behind the bushes by the lagoon?” Brendon made a face. “Don’t think dirty, Jake! I haven’t reached that level of intimacy yet.” Jake let out a relief so profound it was almost comical. Brendon felt even more offended and added, “But, you do realize that your sister and I ARE GOING to reach that level of intimacy now that we’re officially dating, right?” “Now, it’s you who’s talking about dirty things.” Jake shook his head. “My sister is a princess and needs to stay a virgin until AFTER the wedding!” “PFFF...” Brendon tried to hold back his laughter. “Sorry, Jake, but

    “What are you talking about, Brendon?” Suzy started laughing, feeling like she was in an American sitcom. “Us, dating?” Jake grimaced and commented, “Little sis, you threw away the magazine, but I saw you were pretty comfortable while Brendon was putting sunscreen on your back.” “JAKE! No indecent details, please!” Suzy reacted horrified as if hiding a secret. “Suzy, this is the only solution,” Brendon said, stepping closer. “Do you realize what they really want with this?” “To tarnish my reputation...” Suzy whispered. “They want to imply that you only got a good investment portfolio through your body,” Brendon said bluntly. The idea made Eugenio and Jake’s blood boil. “DAMN THEM!” Eugenio exploded, unable to hold back anymore. “That is the absolute LIE!” “João Paulo has something to do with this rumor, Brendon?” Jake asked with a murderous look. “No. But it’s spreading throughout Lagoon City’s business district,” Brendon assured. “So, if Suzy pretends to be my girlfriend, ev

  • Chapter 3293 We’re Going to Be a Couple Then

    The next day, the new edition of Maggiezine featured a cover with Brendon and Suzy interacting romantically on Sunset Village Beach. The couple never officially claimed to be a couple, but the photos didn’t lie. At the Mountain Penthouse, Daryl and Diana toasted with coffee cups, triumphant smiles on their faces, while an eager Karen, hungry for more gossip, carefully read the article. “‘Even though we haven’t received any clarification from the two, the photos leave us room for imagination.’ Certainly, we wonder if the police have already caught the shameless couple entangled in the back of the lagoon!” “Calm down, Karen,” Diane teased. “For now, they’re just a couple of lovebirds.” “It won’t be long before this turns into an intimate relationship, full of indecencies,” Daryl chuckled disdainfully. Karen kept reading, “And there’s more: Vasconcelos Fabrics announces that the information claiming Suzy Cogo has become a board member or shareholder of the company is untrue. Heh, h
