Chapter 3623 You Meant to Help, But Only Made Things Worse
Reuben was trying to explain himself to an enraged Pedro in the management office of the Rocha Hotel.“REUBEN, for crying out loud!” Pedro shouted, pacing back and forth. “Thanks for trying to help, but it seems you’ve only made things worse!”“I really did want to help,” Reuben defended himself as best he could. “I told you we needed to protect our wives. The creep was already on his way to meet Caroline, I told you!”“I know, but that moron can’t be dealt with through conventional means,” Pedro explained patiently. “Felipe’s brain doesn’t operate on logic or coherence.”“Expecting Carol or Daniela to ever give in to his ‘charms’ — now THAT is a total lack of coherence,” Reuben chuckled, opening a drawer to retrieve his medication. It was time for his dose.“Well, I’m not even sure if I should tell Daniela. I don’t want to alarm her,” Pedro said, taking a deep breath.“You’d better sign her up for a shooting course, bro,” Reuben said, raising his eyebrows. “Carol did that back when w
Chapter 3622 Questioning the Therapist
Days passed. Maggiezine released its latest issue, announcing the departure of Luís Vasquez. Without mentioning the nickname he detested so much, the people of Lagoon City were divided in their opinions.Some felt it was a pity he was leaving, while others considered it a blessing.João Paulo was following the online commentary on his tablet at the breakfast table. Sandra and Walter found it amusing.“Dad, flies are going to land on your pancakes,” Walter warned.“Huh?” João Paulo snapped out of his deep focus. “Daddy’s just reading something here, son.”“But Mom’s going to be upset,” Sandra added, laughing.Hearing Helen’s footsteps, João Paulo quickly grabbed his fork and began to eat.When Helen walked in, she noticed her children stifling laughter, while João Paulo chewed his food with suspicious haste.“Alright, shall we go over the rule about eating at the table instead of reading?” Helen asked, pulling out her chair to sit down.“The news about the ‘Spanish Stallion’ leaving to
Chapter 3621 A Report to Josias
Kelvin and Karen reacted with alarm when they found Felipe, his nose still bleeding.“Nephew!” Karen exclaimed. “Dear Lord, if your mother finds out about this...”“DON’T TELL MY MOTHER!” Felipe pleaded, trying to wipe his nose with a handkerchief already stained crimson. “She’ll flip out, and my father will start another war against Mr. Rocha.”“What does Josias have to do with this?” Kelvin raised an eyebrow, catching on. “Ah, I see... Reuben or Pete?”“Reuben the Retard,” Felipe grunted, hungry for revenge.“Look, I think we’d better call Dr. Hogan.” Karen guided Felipe to the living room sofa.“Anyway, I managed to call Caroline and let her know what’s in store for her,” Felipe muttered. “She — or Daniela — will be my wife. Whatever it takes.”Kelvin wrinkled his nose. “Felipe, you promised to behave.”“THEY’RE the ones who don’t behave, Uncle Kelvin! How can anyone be honest when the rest of the world plays dirty?” Felipe exploded with indignation, feeling like the one being pers
Chapter 3620 An Understanding Girlfriend
Caroline was working with extra cheer after having enjoyed some delightful intimacy with Reuben in his office. Henrique poked his head into her office, hesitating to deliver a message after seeing her so radiant.“Caroline, I’m not sure if I should share this news. It might just ruin the rest of your day.”“Nothing could ruin my day — unless, perhaps, it’s a call from Felipe.” Caroline hit the nail on the head without even realizing it.Henrique swallowed hard. “It actually is a call from him, coming through the main line. The coward didn’t want to call you directly, knowing full well you’d hang up on him.”“Put it through. I’m ready.” Caroline winked, full of confidence.Seeing that Caroline was clearly prepared to tear Felipe a new one, Henrique relaxed and stepped out.Moments later, the phone on her desk rang, and Caroline answered promptly. “Hello?”On the other end, Felipe was holding a tissue to his nose. “Carol! I’ve missed you so much... we need to see each other!”“What’s up
Chapter 3619 The Goose That Lays the Golden Eggs
“Hello?” Simeon answered his phone, while Dora sat up on her lounge chair, eager to catch the conversation.On the other end, Dylan sat at his desk with a smile on his face. “Hello, Mr. Campos. I hope this news doesn’t come as too much of a shock.”“Did they discover that J.J. was the first victim of a zombie attack?” Simeon raised an eyebrow, as if such a thing were even possible.Dylan stifled a laugh. “Not quite, Mr. Campos. J.J.’s ‘companion’ — who, as it turns out, is actually one of the employees from his electronics store — is right here in front of me, giving her statement.”The saleswoman, the same one who had tried to flirt with Neilton the previous year, was mortified at being mistaken for a high-end escort.Simeon burst into laughter. “HA, HA, HA... so my theory was right after all: the rascal crashed his yacht and was too embarrassed to face his father! Well, I’ll pass the word along to Josias later.”“Thank you, Mr. Campos,” Dylan said, before hanging up.“Anytime,” Sime
Chapter 3618 Luís Proposes to Andressa
Josias felt it would be better to locate J.J. and clear his name than to keep listening to criticism and accusations from the rest of the family.“Everyone, are you listening to what I’m saying?” Josias insisted. “The mystery is solved. J.J. was only acting under David’s orders.”“Dad, you make it sound so simple,” Alan complained, always the protective eldest son. “J.J. was never the type to let David brainwash him. What happened?”“I don’t know!” Josias snapped. “We’ll only know once we find J.J. and hear everything he has to explain. As a family, we failed to understand him.”“Dad is right.” Caroline stepped up to Josias’s side, leaning against his chest and wrapping an arm around him. “We need to give J.J. a second chance — and, if possible, David as well.”“Are you kidding me?” Alan exploded. “Where’s your husband? Can’t he keep you in line?”“He’s visiting Pete and Daniela to warn them about Felipe,” Caroline said with a shrug.Caio spoke up. “Uh, I thought the whole point of th
