“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

Chapter 3391 The Architecture of Authority
Sarah stepped into Cardozo Perfumes, her eyes fixed on the vibrant screen of her brand-new J.J. Phone. It was the only model she’d ever consider using, the one designed by the man she loved.Karen entered the office, her gaze snagging on the sleek device. “Hey, Sarah... new phone? I must be paying you a hell of a salary if you’re picking up tech like that.”Sarah let out a soft giggle, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “Oh, definitely, Karen. Thank you for the job and the opportunity... but this was actually a gift from my boyfriend.”“Ah, the perks of dating,” Karen said, her voice dropping into the conspiratorial tone of a woman sharing a secret. She reached up, her fingers grazing a diamond necklace that caught the morning light, nearly blinding Sarah with its brilliance. “Kelvin gave me this yesterday.”“It’s stunning,” Sarah admitted.“It reminded me that J.J. was launching his new line,” Karen continued, leaning back.“Oh, it’s incredible!” Sarah’s face lit up. “They’re s
Chapter 3390 The Breaking Point
Sofia pulled into the driveway of the Vazquez Mansion, the trunk of her car weighed down by the spoils of a stressful supermarket run. Engrácia appeared at the door, reaching for the heaviest bags.“Get the boys, Engrácia,” Sofia directed, her voice tight. “There are more plastic bags in the car.”“Yes, ma’am. You have a visitor in the living room. Mr. Vazquez is already with him.”Sofia arched an eyebrow, her mind racing through a list of people she currently had no desire to speak to.When she stepped into the living room, her irritation flared into a white-hot spark at the sight of Kelvin.“How long do you expect Alan to take this, Luís?” Kelvin was saying with indignation. “Until he files for divorce?”“I don’t know, Mr. Mountain,” Luís replied, sounding utterly drained. “I really don’t.”“And you still think Caroline is the one to blame for all this?”“Of course my cousin thinks so!” Sofia interjected, her heels clicking sharply against the floor as she made her entrance.Kelvin
Chapter 3389 Connections and Disruptions
The calendar flipped to December, bringing with it the highly anticipated launch of the J.J. phone. To ensure the message was loud and clear — that this new venture was firmly rooted in the ever-expanding Rocha empire — the unveiling took place in the heart of the bustling Melissa Mall.Curious crowds swarmed the sleek sales booth, their fingers itching to touch the futuristic devices. Within minutes, the first units were being boxed up.“Wow, there are no buttons!” one customer exclaimed, tapping the glass. “You do everything right on the screen!”“Check out this camera resolution,” another whispered, holding the phone up to the light. “It’s incredible.”“Miss, wrap this one up,” a third shouted over the din. “This is mine!”J.J. and Sarah stood near the edge of the fray, watching the madness with wide, satisfied smiles.“J.J., you did it!” Sarah beamed, her eyes sparkling. “You’re a hit!”“Thanks, sweetheart,” J.J. replied, his voice grounded despite the adrenaline. “But this is jus
Chapter 3388 Damned If I Do, Damned If I Don’t
Sofia marched back into the Vaztrans headquarters, her heels striking the floor with a rhythmic, angry snap. She kept her gaze fixed straight ahead, navigating the corridors like a soldier trying to avoid an ambush — specifically, an ambush from her cousin.But if the universe rewards the virtuous, it seemed Sofia was currently on its bad side. As she pushed into her office, she found Luís already occupying the space, leaning against the wall with an expression that screamed I told you so.“Don’t start, Luís, DON’T START!” Sofia barked, slamming her leather bag onto the desk.“Who should start, then?” Luís asked, his eyebrows arching toward his hairline. “Your husband?”Sofia let out a sharp, jagged laugh. “My husband is sleeping on the couch.”“Be careful, cousin,” Luís warned, his voice shifting to a low, serious tone. “Husbands who are alienated by their wives usually look for comfort elsewhere.”“Alan isn’t the type to have mistresses. He won’t repeat his father’s mistake,” Sofia
Chapter 3387 The Outcome of a Wrong Move
Melissa didn’t just dislike the news; the very idea of her firstborn spending the night on a sofa made her blood simmer. She stood up abruptly, letting the scripts she had been meticulously revising slide off her lap and onto the floor, forgotten.“Son, what is happening in your house?” she asked, her voice sharp with concern.Alan looked down, his posture heavy and defeated. “Mom, the truth is, the mansion belongs to Sofia’s family.”“And so?” Melissa countered, her hands finding her hips. “Is that a reason for her to mistreat you?”“Let’s just say I’m being punished for something I did.”Melissa’s gaze softened into a maternal intensity. “What could you possibly have done to deserve such a thing?”“The article Carol wrote about Vaztrans, the one Sofia refused to be a part of... I was the one who gave her the idea,” Alan admitted, his voice barely a whisper. “Dad knows about it.”Melissa narrowed her eyes, processing the revelation. “Did you instruct Carol to leave Sofia out?”“No,”
Chapter 3386 The Price of Triviality
The clink of a silver spoon against a china bowl was the only sound in the Vazquez dining room. Sofia stared into her coffee, her reflection as dark and bitter as the brew. Across from her, Luís focused intently on his toast, as if the crumbs held the secrets of the universe.“Mommy, where’s Daddy?” A.J. asked, his voice echoing in the hollow space.“He went to work early, A.J.,” Sofia said. Her voice was a flat, cold line.“Aw, man. He didn’t even say goodbye...”“Get used to it. That is the life of a businessman,” she snapped, not looking up. “You’d better start learning that now.”Luís dropped his toast, his eyes flashing. “Cousin! Is that what you’re feeding the boy for breakfast? Cynicism?”A.J. froze, his spoon midway to his mouth, eyes darting between the two adults. Luís softened his expression instantly, reaching out to pat the boy’s hand. “Sorry, kid. It’s not your fault. Eat your cereal. I’ll take you to school today.”A.J. beamed, the tension leaving his small shoulders. “
