2023-06-23 20:02:19At the Rocha Mansion, Daryl is intrigued by Beto’s request to remove Rosemary.
“Beto, sit down, and let’s talk. You speak as if Kelvin complained about something.”
Beto stares at Daryl suspiciously, “And he didn’t complain? Daryl, have you guys been talking lately?”
“I called him yesterday, letting him know that our friend Josias wanted to know how Carol and Rosemary were doing.” Daryl smiles proudly and waves to Josia

Chapter 3423 If They Value Their Lives
A few days passed. The next issue of Maggiezine covered the 2014 Carnival festivities while also marking the official kickoff of the state and federal elections. People began to argue, hold rallies, form alliances, or break off friendships over opposing candidates.For Daryl, it seemed to be the latter. He was deeply dissatisfied that he hadn’t been invited to Ismael Lancaster’s dinner. At the Mountain Penthouse, he was venting to Kelvin while sneakily snagging a piece of carrot cake with chocolate frosting, something Diane had specifically told him to save for dessert after the upcoming lunch.“Mmm...” he mumbled, talking with his mouth full. “Delicious.” He swallowed. “Want a piece?”Kelvin smoothed his hand over his dress shirt, emphasizing the definition of his toned abs. “I need to stay in shape so Karen doesn't trade me in for a newer model.”Daryl threw his head back and let out a hearty laugh. He, the eldest brother, was already fifty and couldn’t care less about being fit — t
Chapter 3422 The Interpersonal Relations Consultant
“I wouldn’t know, darling. You’ll have to ask her,” Sofia said with a mocking smile as she stood up.Alan let out a deep sigh. This was going to take a long time...“By the way, did you get an invitation to Ismael’s dinner?” she asked.“Dad ordered us not to attend any pre-candidate dinners except for Tobias Ibrahim’s,” Alan informed her as he walked toward his closet.“Seriously? Isn’t that a bit like political bossism?” Sofia asked jokingly.“No, that’s just ‘Dad knowing what’s best for his family.’”Alan disappeared into the closet. Sofia sat on the edge of the king-sized bed, a suggestive smile on her lips, already imagining herself being ravished by her handsome, fit hubby.She glanced toward the closet, tempted to go in there and beg him not to even bother putting on underwear... She ran a hand over her stomach.‘I’ve already been through two pregnancies. Could I handle one more?’ she wondered.******At the dinner, all the guests held their wine glasses, waiting for the right m
Chapter 3421 Political Invitations
The grand introductory dinner for Ismael Lancaster, the pre-candidate for State Representative, was held at the prestigious Rocha Events hall. Thierry, Rosemary, Nadia, and Rodrigo stood at the entrance, momentarily breathless at the sheer opulence of the display. While Josias’s ballroom was always glamorous, the organizers had gone above and beyond with the decorations for this occasion.Standard bulbs had been replaced with designer fixtures, and the central chandelier had been swapped for a massive, classic piece that bathed the room in a warm, golden glow. It created a refined, welcoming atmosphere, a far cry from the cold, artificial white light that often made high-end venues feel like hospitals.The linen tablecloths were immaculate, the catering staff moved with practiced grace in black vests and bow ties, and the wine flowed from the private cellars of Bezerra Farm. The appetizer table alone was vast enough to feed the entire Happiness Slum.In a corner of the hall, a massive
Chapter 3420 Everybody Is Wary About Sofia
Sofia strutted through the corridors of Vaztrans with her head held high and a triumphant smirk plastered on her face. All around her, employees clapped or called out congratulations.“Mrs. Vasquez Rocha, you killed it!”“Congratulations, ma’am!”“Proud to work for this company, Mrs. Rocha!”“Thank you, thank you...” Sofia waved, feeling like a politician on the campaign trail. All the praise was doing wonders for her ego.When she stepped into her office, however, she jumped, finding Luís waiting for her.“Yikes! I was about to scream ‘Jesus,’ but it’s just you,” she gasped.“Could be someone worse,” Luís replied, notably devoid of his usual snickering.Sofia sensed something was off and approached her desk with caution. “Are you alright, cousin?”“It seems I owe you an apology,” Luís continued, his tone remains serious. “I brought my girlfriend over at an inopportune time.”Sofia swallowed hard, unsure of how to respond without sounding petty or rude.“I was planning a dinner to cel
Chapter 3419 The Article Came Out
The following day, Caroline’s long-awaited article finally hit the stands in the latest edition of Maggiezine. Not only was the piece published in its entirety, leaving Sofia no room to complain about malicious edits or sabotage, but she had also snagged the cover.The cover featured a candid shot of Sofia walking down the street, captured when she had no idea she was being photographed. Below it, the headline blazed: “THE REASON FOR VAZTRANS’ SUCCESS.”Caroline was pacing in circles in Maggie’s office, waiting for sales updates.“Niece, you’re going to wear a hole in my carpet,” Maggie joked, her eyes glued to her computer screen.“The situation is truly desperate, Aunt Maggie,” Caroline huffed. “If this issue is a flop, Sofia is going to keep this war going forever.”“But that’s no longer up to her, or you. She put in the effort to be interviewed. You maintained your professionalism.” Maggie looked up from her computer and removed her reading glasses, eyeing Caroline with compassion
Chapter 3418 Collecting More Opinions
“You know her,” Luís said with a mischievous glint in his eye. He knew perfectly well that this guest was a last-minute addition who didn’t quite fit the vibe of the evening. He turned toward the entrance and shouted, “Come on in!”Sofia’s breath hitched as she watched Andressa Farina walk into the room. She was wearing a simple but lovely knee-length dress, nothing pretentious that screamed “I’m a television star.”Engrácia and the other servants stood by, confused by their employer's furrowed brow and heavy breathing.Andressa took her place beside Luís, offering an angelic smile. However, the sheer shock and tension radiating from her boyfriend’s cousin didn't go unnoticed.“Mrs. Vasquez Rocha, please forgive my sudden appearance,” Andressa said, assuming the late arrival was the issue. “Your cousin invited me for dinner at the last minute, and since I didn't have any filming scheduled...”“Ah, so Melissa gave you the night off,” Sofia said with a nervous smile, trying to mask a de
