Days passed. Cláudio is in his apartment, lying on the sofa wrapped in a blanket from the waist down, reading the LCN newspaper.
A piece of news that read more like a footnote from Vernon reported that Thierry Lafayette has been found and is safe.
Cláudio frowns, “Such an important story that ran for days, suddenly disappeared from TV and newspapers, and now that the case has been resolved, they just write this tiny note? What does that mean? Could it be... could it be that the matter was truly resolved?”
A malicious smile springs from Claudio's lips.
He settles back into the pillows and continues to scan the headlines, but nothing else is said.
“Why do I have the feeling that this has the hand of Josias Rocha?”

In Gabriela's apartment, the subject is the same.

Building My Life Chapter 2187 The New Supervisor
At Lafayette Supermarket, the conversation between Nadia and Cláudio continues. Now they were both sitting opposite each other with their cup of coffee.“So, Miss Lafayette?”Nadia shakes the hand holding the cup, “Mr. Guzman...”“Call me Cláudio,” He said with an irresistible smile.“Cláudio… as I said, I don't think we should take any chances with the city's big shots. We’re only one year here, I don't know if I do well to face Josias Rocha.”“So, he has something to do with your brother's disappearance.” Cláudio concludes, still grinning, “I'm glad he reappeared. Can I talk to him?”“He didn't reappear!” Nadia blurts out, then widens her eyes.“Perfect!” Cláudio puts his cup on the saucer and applauds, “I was suspicious of that footnote left by Vernon Queiroz.”“Wha

“How great, my comrade!” Josias applauds, “One less thing for me to worry about.”Octavio closes the door and tsks with his tongue, “You are the one who voluntarily meddles in people’s problems, unable to let us suffer a little in this life.”Josias shrugs, “Why do my friends and family have to suffer when I am here to help?”“OK, thanks for that.” Octavio chuckles, “Anyway, did you see the floor plan for one of my collaborators?”Josias smiles in approval, “Perfect. Ironically, it's for a client of ours from Europe Garden.”“Mr. Lafayette telephoned me demanding the return of his son.”Josias fades his smile, “The imbecile Ivan Moraes must have given him the phone number.

Ironically, the lobby radio plays “I'm a Believer” by Smash Mouth.“Will Rosemary believe Patrick is the ‘beggar’?” Vera wonders.“If she doesn’t believe it, Beto will ground her.” Teresa responds with a hard look, “She needs to wake up to life. This obsession with the ‘beggar’ isn’t normal.”“And she swore so hard not to follow in her mother's footsteps...”“But she didn’t just follow in the footsteps, she dove in head first!”Teresa and Vera are startled by Patrick's bitter voice.“Pat, we know you're upset, but—”“Did she go there?” Patrick interrupts Vera with a glare.Teresa responds, “Yes, Pat.
