2023-06-10 20:04:44At the Lafayette supermarket, Thierry and Nadia continue to ‘talk’.
“Brother, did you mention Rodrigo on purpose?”
“I didn't know you had such prevention.” Thierry scoffs.
“I have no prevention!” Nadia defends herself, “I don't have to explain anything to you.”
“But I have to explain everything to you, huh?” Thierry crosses his arms, “Tell me, were you the one who reported me to our fathe

Chapter 3548 Following Pedro’s Example
Daniela and Pedro were chatting in the backyard area of the Teodoro Building, watching a young tenant — who was well on his way to developing a toned, muscular physique — using the pull-up bar without it shaking or threatening to collapse.“There, crisis averted,” Pedro laughed.Daniela slapped his muscular arms playfully. “The neighbors must wonder why we haven’t given Ray three little brothers and sisters yet.”“That’s because 95% of the time we make love, I go in through—” Pedro began in a low, playful whisper.“SHH!” Daniela hissed, turning bright red with embarrassment. “The kids!”Pedro glanced over at the toys, but the children were playing without paying any attention to the humorous, spicy conversation between the building’s current owners.Only the young man working out on the pull-up bar briefly interrupted his reps, picking up on his landlord’s preferred sex position with a sting of envy.When Brigitte and Nathalie walked in, sporting victorious expressions, they couldn’t
Chapter 3547 Final Verdict
Erik adjusted his shirt collar with visible discomfort, casting a disdainful glance toward Nathalie. Beside him, she remained composed, standing tall with her chin held high, while Brigitte stood at her side, exuding absolute confidence.Judge Saulo Neves settled into his chair, adjusted his glasses, and leafed through the paperwork before him amidst a deathly silence that filled the courtroom.“Very well,” Saulo declared, his deep voice echoing through the room. “We are here to deliberate on the divorce proceedings and the custody of the minor, Tiffany Paterson. In light of the attached police report and the documentary evidence of assault falling under the Maria da Penha Law, I now yield the floor to the defendant’s counsel.”Erik’s lawyer cleared his throat and stepped forward, wearing a rehearsed smile.“Your Honor, my client acknowledges that a regrettable misunderstanding occurred — a moment of weakness driven by the heat of the moment,” the lawyer began, attempting to soften hi
Chapter 3546 The Shares Problem
Alan and Caio went after Josias in the presidential office of Rocha Constructions. Josias poured himself another glass of cognac from the bar cart.“Dad,” Alan chuckled, “I pray you don’t turn into an alcoholic drinking so much here.”“A man like me, loaded down with so many decisions to make, needs a little nip now and then,” Josias dismissed nonchalantly. “Care for a glass, either of you?”“No, thank you,” Caio replied. He paused before continuing, “So, that’s really how things are going to stay, then?”“Unfortunately,” Josias said darkly, taking a sip. “Alfred Paterson worked here for many long years and was a great ally of mine.”“He can’t be held completely to blame for this, Dad,” Alan pointed out. “If his wretched son hadn’t come here in the first place—”“But that’s precisely the point,” Josias interrupted. “That poor girl, Nathalie, was running away in terror with her little daughter. If Erik Paterson hadn’t come to town, Nathalie’s nightmare would never have ended. And she w
Chapter 3545 A Spy in the Mountain Penthouse?
The following day, Josias organized a meeting to discuss the impending organizational changes at Rocha Constructions.Romulo had no desire to interact with Alfred, but he attended the meeting nonetheless. As for Alfred, he no longer cared about anything.Josias greeted everyone individually. It was only after all the directors and executives witnessed Josias shaking Alfred’s hand that they finally followed suit.“How is your criminal son doing?” Caio asked, his tone full of irony.“Counting down the hours to leave town,” Alfred replied.“And did you really need to sacrifice yourself for him?” Caio pressed.“I’ve already spent too much of my life away from him,” Alfred confessed.“Hey, Alf,” Caio said with sudden emphasis, “you don’t actually believe any of this was your fault, do you?”Before Alfred could respond, Josias positioned himself at the head of the long conference table, remaining standing while the other gentlemen took their seats.“Gentlemen,” Josias began solemnly, “this
Chapter 3544 Josias Refines the Solution
Alan couldn’t wrap his head around Josias’s new approach to discipline.“Mom, what is going on with my father?” Alan asked, visibly perplexed.“I don’t know, son,” Melissa replied, her voice filled with distress. “I think there’s something happening that we’re failing to see.”“It certainly isn’t anything mysterious about J.J.!” Alan countered bitterly. “His intentions are pretty transparent.”“My concern is your father,” Melissa admitted. “He’s been so passive lately, upset about something.”“Has he not forgiven me for moving back to our former penthouse?” Alan mused.“Our Rocha Penthouse...” Melissa recalled with a wave of nostalgia. “Now it’s called the Mountain Penthouse. Daryl and Diane managed to preserve all its beauty and elegance.”“Yes, it’s incredible how certain things haven’t changed,” Alan agreed. “The other day, Dad—”Melissa instantly caught the shift in terms, her eyes widening in surprise.“Who are you calling ‘Dad’?” Melissa interrupted sharply.“Kelvin,” Alan answe
Chapter 3543 An Easier Solution
Erik was throwing a fit in his hospital room. The television mounted on the ceiling, tuned to LCN, was broadcasting the Lisandro Torres show.“That’s not how it happened... IT ISN’T!” Erik hollered.Doctors and nurses walking down the corridor gasped, startled by the hysterical patient.“What are you all staring at?!” Erik barked.The door opened wider, and Alfred stepped inside. Burning with shame, he quickly pulled the door shut behind him.“Dad, please leave the door open. I feel like I’m suffocating,” Erik demanded.“Son,” Alfred said, his voice heavy with distress, “you no longer have the luxury of picking and choosing what you want out of life.”“What do you mean?” Erik asked, caught off guard.“Aside from the risk of going to jail if you even try to get near my granddaughter, you’re going to sign those divorce papers.”“I DON’T WANT TO! OUCH!” Erik threw a temper tantrum, slamming his fist into a pillow, only to groan in pain as agony shot through his arm and shoulder.“You hav
