Daryl is apprehensive about Hector’s supposed indifference.

“Who do I speak to, sir...?”

“Daryl Mountain.” Daryl responds curtly, “Please, I don’t want to cause any trouble. I just want to know if Patrick Nogueira was at the party, but he got kicked out.”

“Mr. Nogueira was at the party.” Hector promptly responds, “He was here with Young Mr. Rocha’s friends.”

“Oh, I see.” Daryl raises his eyebrows. Was Patrick at the party, but he got kicked out?

“Any questions, sir? Young Mr. Fabray is studying for the entrance exams with his cousin, Caio Campos, at his grandparents’ house.”

“Oh, thank you very much, I’ll confirm.” Daryl thanks him and ends the call. Now he knows where Alan is...

When looking for Simeon’s number in the phone book, Daryl finds the number and eagerly dials it.

On the other side, in the living room of Simeon’s house, Caio and Alan are at ease, talking shirtless on the sofa, after an excellent lunch that grandma Dora prepared with so much care. The radio plays Emin

    Josias shows up at the police station to talk to Amoreira.The detective is once again in his office, luxuriating in the Maggiezine. A double-page ad featured gorgeous models in lingerie.“Wow, if I were fifteen years younger...”The door opens and Josias enters, “Good afternoon, Detective Amoreira. Shall I interrupt?”Amoreira smiles from end to end when he finds Josias, “Mr. Rocha! Come in, please! No, you don’t disturb me. I’ll be more than happy to help you.”Josias smiles and sits down facing each other, “OK. Can you help me with something?”“Tell me.”“Did you happen to be the one who told Daryl Mountain that William Campos was the anonymous sender?”Amoreira becomes more professional and less friendly, “Hmm... You are referring to the email with your photographs, the ones in which you are with Gabriela Alves, which catapulted the divorce between you and Katherine Bezerra...”“...And which resulted in her and my son’s death.” Josias completes in a sinister tone.Amoreira feels t

    The day of the entrance exam for Alan and Caio has arrived.Both were at the entrance to Lagoon City College, located in the Saint Gabriel neighborhood. Their families showed up to bring good luck.William has mixed emotions. The neighborhood always reminds him of what happened in 1982. The player from this neighborhood team, in desperation to prevent William from scoring, intercepted him in such a way that it looked like football and not soccer. It was the first time William had broken his leg.He now looks at the brace he needs to use to walk...But he decides to swallow those thoughts and focus on his son, “Caio, pay close attention to the questions, especially the math ones. If you don’t do well in that part, the teachers who correct the test are unlikely to believe that you want to be an architect.”Caio smiles, “Don’t worry, Dad. Alan and I focused a lot on math. After all, without it, it’s impossible to run a company.”William turns to Alan, “You have a good test too, nephew.”

    The smaller children were playing with car toys, dolls, and a Spandex tunnel that they crawled through, from one end to the other. The tunnel was a gift from Josias to Alan and Caroline.The tunnel was narrow, even though it was made of stretchable material, and children like Henrique didn’t dare enter it. Only Mary, Ignacio, Sandra, and Maycon ventured out.Reuben had indeed gone to the bathroom and on returning through the side passageway in his swim trunks, he found the children enjoying themselves. Maycon had just left.“Wow, what a cool tunnel. Aren’t you afraid when you’re in there?”“Not really, Reuben, we are brave!” Maycon says.Reuben narrows his eyes, “But this tunnel is kind of long, huh? Are you sure this is a children’s toy?”“We do.” Ignacio nods.Henrique answers, “It serves to train our proprioception. Now, you’ll have to ask my father what that is.”“Can I try?” Reuben asks with a smirk, “Maybe I need to practice that stuff too. I never had one in my childhood.”The

    After finishing the entrance exams, Alan and Caio are having lunch at the nearest snack bar. They didn’t want to go to the mansion hungry. The radio is playing “Come Clean” by Hillary Duff.“Now we’re eating coxinha and sugarcane juice.” Alan laughs, “But beef ribs, chicken wings, and pork chops await us at the mansion.”“It’s just so we don’t pass out from hunger during the journey.” Caio chuckles as he chews, “So, are you confident?”“Yes, I am. We’ll pass and study with honors.” Alan sighs, “Our parents deserve this happiness.”“Uncle Josias never went to college, did he?” Caio is curious.“No, he took a technical course at SENAI. But nowadays, people demand a higher qualification a lot. We don’t want to be unprepared when our turn comes.” Alan spreads ketchup on his coxinha.“In your case,

And they didn’t refuse.“Wow, I could get used to this.” Elza comments jokingly, “I’m the manager of the Rocha Hotel and my husband is the supervisor of the editorial team at LCN. Vernon, what are we waiting for?”“The same financial condition as our son.” Vernon comments, making everyone laugh.Dora turns to Melissa, “See, daughter? This is the life you always deserved.”“And I’m glad you and Dad weren’t left out. I would never forgive myself.” Melissa comments.Sitting down at the end of the table, Josias looks away, thinking of something, then suggests, “Hey, I have an idea.

    At Crystal Blue, Daryl turns off the radio to talk to Patrick.“Pat, sit down. We need to talk about something very serious with you.”“I wonder what it is, sir.” Patrick sits up, feeling himself headed for the slaughter, “I was slandered by your son, as usual.”Daryl fusses, “See? That’s what I don’t understand. How come you already assumed that our conversation has something to do with Felipe?”“Has it not, then?” Patrick smiles wryly.“You don’t seem to appreciate your job.” Daryl shakes his head, “You act as if you could stay in the company humiliating the boss’s son.”“I didn’t humiliate anyone.” Patrick blatantly lies, “You know it’s always been the other way around. Your son got angry with me and accused me of mistreating him when I had never seen him in my life. To this day, he refuses to explain i

    Josias finishes getting dressed to go to work in the master suite. Melissa is combing her hair in front of the dressing table. “Thank you so much, darling, for sheltering my parents here.” She is grateful when she sees Josias through the mirror’s reflection, “I needed this. Mom no longer works as she used to, taking care of the twins in the penthouse. She never got around to asking Daryl for a cleaning job, so...” “Here, she won’t work either.” Josias comments good-naturedly, “Before, Melissa, we didn’t have employees on the Rocha Penthouse. Now it’s different. We have Hector and more to help us, so your mother will rest, taking care of the twins while you... What do you want to do now, honey?” Melissa scratches her chin, narrowing her eyes, “That’s an interesting question, darling.” “Yes, because I want you to work on something you like.” Josias leans down and kisses her forehead. Melissa starts to think, “It’s such a shame that ‘Sweet Love’ ended. LCN has another writer and ano

Thus, she has some work to do and we’ll raise our company’s name higher, earning the respect of those who want to do good to society.”Octavio applauds, “I have nothing to say against it, Josias! Your idea is spectacular, as always.”“Now, we need to check out the next project to get her involved.” Alfred scratches his chin.Octavio suggests, “Wasn’t there a fashion show last year in Lagoon City with some of the proceeds going to charity? Maybe we can get involved in that this year if they want to.”Josias nods, “Very good, Octavio. Let’s check the possibility.”Alfred jokes, “It would be great if Melissa was one of the models, preferably the sho

    At the quiet, tree-lined Ibrahim Square, Sarah sat alone on a bench, her gaze resting on an issue of the Maggiezine. She flipped through the pages, but her mind was elsewhere — clearly disconnected from whatever her eyes were scanning.Lost in thought, she barely noticed Reynaldo approaching until his voice startled her back to the present.“Sarah, thank goodness you’re safe, sound... and still a virgin!”She nearly jumped off the bench, utterly horrified by his sudden arrival — and even more so by his tactless choice of words.“What is going on with this town?” she snapped. “Is there something in the water?”“I drink charcoal-filtered water,” Reynaldo replied matter-of-factly, as if that settled the issue.“Well, good for you.” Sarah crossed her arms. “Reynaldo, can you explain to me if you have something against J.J.?”He sat down beside her, his demeanor defensive yet trying to remain calm.“I have nothing against him,” he insisted. “I met J.J. recently — when he came back ‘from th

    At the Vasconcelos Fabrics headquarters, J.J. remained seated at his desk, a faintly amused smirk displaying on his lips. Across from him stood Dylan, still in his police uniform, exuding the solemn demeanor of a man trying to sort through a delicate situation.“You’ve been reported for assault, J.J.,” Dylan announced, his tone neutral but firm.J.J. didn’t flinch. “So the wuss decided to file a complaint instead of retaliating like a real man,” he replied coolly, barely looking up from his desk.Dylan’s brow furrowed. “As an officer of the law, I’m not in the business of revenge or retaliation.” His mouth curved slightly, but there was no warmth in the smile. “But I do try to understand what’s going on. According to Reynaldo, you snapped when you saw him near Sarah Paes.”At that, J.J. finally lifted his gaze, his demeanor shifting from flippant to serious. “Since you’re following in your father’s footsteps, I assume you know who Sarah is.” He paused for effect, then added gravely, “

But as they approached Brigitte’s office, their conversation came to an abrupt halt.“I’ve been waiting for you, you little fox!” came a sharp voice from down the hall.Brigitte froze, startled by the sight of Suzy standing at her office door, arms crossed and a glare cold enough to freeze hell over.******In the elegant living room of the Mountain Penthouse, Diane sat beside Felipe on the plush sofa, her demeanor gentle and maternal, despite the fact her son was a grown man.

    That afternoon, the living room of the Mountain Penthouse was tense and electric. Diane stepped in, only to find her son Felipe in the middle of a heated argument with Jake Cogo. Her expression immediately twisted into one of displeasure.“Hey, what’s going on here?” she asked sharply. “Mr. Cogo, my son needs to rest.”Jake didn’t flinch. “I can see that, Mrs. Mountain. But this is urgent.”Placing her purse on the sideboard, Diane raised an eyebrow. “And what’s so important that it needs to be discussed right now?”Jake turned to her. “Felipe says he wants to break up with my sister. I have to be involved in this.”A sly, almost mischievous smile tugged at Diane’s lips. “And where is Suzy, by the way?”Jake flinched, suddenly sheepish. “Er... she went to look for investors at—”“I don’t give a damn!” Diane exploded. “Mr. Cogo—”“Jake,” he corrected quickly.“‘Jake,’ I’m deeply disappointed in the way Suzy handled this whole situation.

    In the elegant living room of the Mountain Penthouse, Mary gently rocked baby Anthony in her arms. The soft rhythm of her lullaby filled the space — until the sound of the doorbell cut through the quiet.“That’s odd,” Mary murmured, her brow furrowing. “No one called from the front desk...” She approached the door cautiously and asked, “Who is it?”A voice responded from the other side. “Jake Cogo!”Mary raised an eyebrow, surprised. “Hold on a second!”Just then, Felipe emerged slowly, dressed in a white robe, walking with measured steps — the toll of his recent hospital stay still evident in his posture.“Who is it, Mary?” he asked.“Jake Cogo,” she answered, puzzled. “Cousin, weren’t you dating his sister?”Felipe grimaced, visibly annoyed by the mention.“Mary, I’m not dating Jake,” he clarified. “You better take our little cousin to his crib.”Mary gave a small smile. “Oh, Anthony’s already asleep. My lullaby must’ve been either very soothing or incredibly boring.”Felipe chuckle

Customers chatted over coffee and snacks, while Neilton and the other waiters moved about swiftly and professionally, serving with ease.“Hey, Rod! What’s up?” Neilton called out with a grin.Rodrigo replied, “Neil, sometimes I envy you for not having a mountain of problems.”Laughing, Neilton shot back, “And I envy you for having a big, noisy family.”Rodrigo paused, swallowing hard. “I’m sorry.”“Nah, I’m just joking — well, maybe not. I do wish I had at least a younger brother.”Rodrigo chuckled lightly. “Whenever I need to, I talk to Veronica over video call. Anyway, I meant the problems at the supermarket.”They made their way to the counter.“Still that issue with the truck from Bezerra Farm?” Neilton asked.“That’s resolved. But now we know why it happened.” Rodrigo lowered his voice, glancing around. “Be careful with the Borges brothers. They’re not who we thou

Instead, she was surprised to see Alan there alone.She had no idea she was about to be handled like livestock on its way to the slaughterhouse.“Alan, what a surprise. What are you doing here? Where’s Sofia?” she asked.Alan leaned back with a hint of irony in his tone. “Which of those two questions should I answer?”Suzy paused, confused by the odd remark.“We need to talk, Suzy,” he continued, pushing a check across the desk.Suzy’s breath caught as she picked it up and read the staggering amount.“This check...?” she whispered.“It’s the amount you invested in Vaztrans, plus ten percent in compensation, as outlined in your contract,” Alan explained coolly.“You’re... returning my investment?” she asked, her voice tight.“Exactly. We no longer require your partnership, Miss Cogo.”Suzy’s eyes narrowed. “May I ask what this is about?”“It’s simple,” Alan said, calm but firm. “My wife believes you’re not cont

A relieved smile crept onto her face. “Any doubts I had about being accepted into this family are gone.” She brightened, holding the check delicately. “I’m even going to text Caroline.

Isn’t he the top lawyer at Damascene Lawyers?”J.J. answered with a grim tone. “Apparently being a lawyer for the most prestigious firm in Lagoon City has become some sort of cover for him.”Rodrigo, firm and resolute, added, “Well, then we’ll have to tear that cover off.
