Ingrid is stunned when she discovers that her son is not hiding at the aforementioned address.
“Excuse me, ma'am...”
“Mrs. Reis.” Teresa introduces herself, “I am the daughter-in-law of the late Teodoro Reis.”
She points to the portrait and Ingrid nods in reverence, “I'm so sorry for your loss. But my boy is here chasing an underage young lady. I fear it could escalate into a scandal of epic proportions.”
Teresa frowns. If the problem is with the underage girl, why does Ingrid call her son 'my boy'? He must be over twenty-one!
“Didn’t a disheveled-looking guy in decrepit clothes stay here?” Ingrid insists.
Teresa widens her eyes, “A gentleman who was over thirty years old, without documents, named John, stayed here. He cannot be your son, madam.”
Ingrid has a strange feeling that this 'sir' is her mischievous son, “Well, what about this John, what is h

You know... soon he will be called to Lisandro's Show, soon some magazine will call him for another interview...”“Are you saying the guy wants to be a celebrity at the expense of Kate and J.J.'s corpses?” Dora asks in amazement.“Exactly, Grandma,” Caio nodded, “This guy has become an opportunist.”William smiles proudly, “I'm glad to see you smarter, Caio.

Miss Alves came here, desperate, almost having eclampsia, claiming that you called her threateningly and aggressively, summoning her to come to Café Montanha to talk. She was very terrified.”Josias's eyes widen, “But that's a lie! I wasn't the one who called!”Ivan nodded, “You just confessed that you sent Tiago Bento's henchmen after her and they overdid their approach. This also confirms my suspicion that the Bento family is nothing more than an outlaw clan, operating in the underworld. I’ll ask the commissioner for a full investigation, starting with Elisa Bento Neves—”Something inside Josias ignited when he heard the name of the girl he saved from being raped in 1980, “Leave Elisa alone! She's happily married being a mother while her husband is a judge in the Lagoon City Court!”“Oh, what an excellent disguise!” Ivan laughs provo
