“Hello! If there's a guy here, I came to help you!”
Octavio rummages through cardboard boxes and garbage cans. The stench is not comforting.
As he turns toward a pile of abandoned bricks, he appears to have seen someone's foot.
“I found you. Mr. Lafayette, I came on a mission of peace.&rd

Chapter 3486 Leonardo Will Do a Merger and Acquisition
Moments later, Leonardo appeared before Josias in his finest suit. The lawyer looked tense, well aware that he was standing before the premier client of the Damascene Lawyers agency."Mr. Rocha, to what do I owe the pleasure of serving you?" Leonardo practically bowed."Hello, Attorney Borges." Josias leaned back into the leather headrest of his chair. "I need some consulting. I intend to fold Lancaster into my conglomerate."Leonardo swallowed hard, knowing full well what the ruthless Josias wanted."Gulp... er... that isn't going to be easy, Mr. Rocha.""Why not?" Josias made a face as if this were a mere inconvenience."Because, as far as I know, the company isn't for sale." Leonardo scratched the back of his neck."When school supply sales plummet because of the scandal the Lafayette family exposed, they're going to want to save the company. And I want to be the lifeguard."Leonardo raised an eyebrow. "Something tells me you aren't purely concerned with the well-being of the compa
Chapter 3485 New Enemy in the Family
Days went by. Nothing surfaced regarding Rosemary and Pamela's controversial past, not even on an obscure blog or podcast. It seemed Ismael Lancaster hadn't gotten what he wanted.Josias, sitting at his office desk, was checking everything about Lancaster on his computer. Hector walked in and saw his boss smiling like a spider spinning its web."Good morning, master. Anything interesting?""It seems Lancaster owns that school supplies company. Notebooks, books, backpacks, colored pencils... everything you can imagine. The brand has gained value. My kids always wanted something from that brand.""Yes, I remember buying backpacks from that brand for the twins." Hector nodded."Call Leonardo Borges. We need to talk about something he understands." Josias leaned back in his chair, interlocking his fingers in a pose that clearly signaled he was up to no good.Hector swallowed hard, but nodded and exited after a bow. Things were about to heat up!******At Rocha Constructions, Alfred was ta
Chapter 3484 The Truth About the Cologne
Helen and Luís were speaking inside the manager’s office at the Cardozo Shop, ensuring no unwanted ears would overhear their controversial conversation.“Luís, were you the one who received the stolen cologne?” Helen asked.“STOLEN?!” Luís’s eyes went wide. “Did she... did my aunt steal the cologne?”“Yes, she took that cologne where Rod posed... let’s be frank, we all noticed Rod was swimming au naturel, even if the water covered his private parts.”“Even so, Aunt Olivia has a talent for stripping men down with her eyes,” Luís replied with embarrassment.Helen reacted with concern, immediately grasping the full picture. “She lusted after you too.”It wasn’t a question; it was a statement of fact. A heavy lump formed in Luís’s throat.“OK, you don’t have to answer me.” Helen gestured with understanding and empathy.“I left their mansion and I’m living in an apartment with Andressa,” Luís explained, his face turning bright red. “She sent the cologne as a gift through the mail. Andressa
Chapter 3483 "Fulfilling" the Deal
João Paulo was chatting with his beloved wife at the Cardozo Shop. Every now and then, female shoppers glanced at the handsome journalist with desire and a tiny hint of envy toward the manager. But Helen was focused on the conversation.“Darling, this is very concerning. Any random blog with no accountability to us could publish that dossier.”João Paulo pursed his lips. “What’s new in that document anyway? Everyone here knows why Pamela doesn’t show her face, exiled in Victoria.”“The new generation doesn’t know,” Helen reminded him.“The new generation is worried about video games and social media. This ‘Facebook’ thing seems like it’s here to stay, doesn’t it?”“Speaking of which, Karen is thinking of creating exclusive profiles for the shop and the perfumes,” Helen promptly shifted the subject to something more pleasant.João Paulo smiled like a journalist sniffing out a scoop. “Hmm... interesting. When she decides, let me know. My column could use some fresh news.”“That’s why th
Chapter 3482 What J.J. Really Wants
The following day, Bernardo and Maggie reacted with absolute horror inside the former’s office when that very same Augusto tried to sell them the dossier. Augusto was already in a state of desperation.“For the love of God, what happened to the impartial press?” the secretary whinnied.Bernardo didn’t even waste his time sitting down. “Mr. Thorne, what you’re proposing is preposterous. We have our limits here.”“There is no way we’re going to publish something to harm a person who has never done any wrong to anyone.” Maggie crossed her arms in dignity.“She and her husband did wrong to my boss!” Augusto bellowed, his eyes bloodshot.“She defended herself. You guys wanted to blackmail the entire family just to buy their support.” Bernardo made a ‘tsk’ sound with his tongue. “This only proves that Lancaster would be just another corrupt politician among the many that exist in this country. We managed to keep at least one of them out!”“You...” Augusto gnashed his teeth like a rabid dog.
Chapter 3481 Nothing More to Lose
The election result came in, and it could not have been more obvious. While the rest of Brazil complained about the reelection of the female president, Lagoon City celebrated in full force the election of Tobias Ibrahim as state deputy, the city’s new representative.Josias popped a bottle of champagne in the ballroom of the Rocha Mansion. The others cheered and clinked their glasses.“Mission accomplished, everyone. Now, we can rest,” Josias declared, tilting the bottle over Melissa’s glass.“Time to focus on other problems,” Melissa added with a smile.“Kill a lion a day, that’s the motto,” Simeon declared, chewing on some party sweets.“But that Lancaster guy was the main predator,” Dora complained. “After what I found out they intended to do to poor Rosemary...”Reuben, in a rare display of wisdom, asked with concern, “Hey, don’t you guys think Lancaster might try to pull that dirty trick anyway?”Total silence. Sofia flashed a disdainful smirk at Reuben, thinking she was witnessi
