2021-09-10 18:55:07After Jorge leaves his office, Josias and Vera enter and close the door. Vera widens her eyes and is terrified. Will Josias also want...?
Because of what happened between her and Wallace, Vera now thinks every man in the world wants to force himself on her. Ironically, if Wallace shows up and asks for forgiveness, Vera would be willing to forgive him, as she'd told Prates earlier.
But, Josias would never do something like that. He just doesn't want to be interrupted by Beto. "Let's talk very clearly, Vera. First of all, I would like to congratulate you."
Vera smiles and sits in Jorge's chair instead of letting Josias sit in it. "Wow, that's cool! Congratulations, why?"
Josias responds in a voice full of spite, "Congratulations on pretending to be a decent girl; congratulations on getting into where it wasn't your business; congratulations on involving another boy in this web of lies and losing your virginity without being married; congratulations on sinki

Josias always looks like a sheik who orders a disobedient concubine to be whipped.Beto approaches Josias, but without the policeman's thoughts. "So, Josias, what did you say to my sister?""Did you really hit Wallace and then make up that story that he was mugged?" Josias asks point-blank. The rude, aggressive and authoritative tone makes Beto shake his legs as if he were a teenager."There's no denying it, apparently she took advantage and told it." Beto laments with his gloomy face, "Yes, Josias, I made that mistake.""Your mistake in the first place was accepting your father's plan." Josias reminds him, "But I'm not going to blame your father because, as the Bible says, 'the wages paid for sin is death.'""So you're not going to help the police to arrest Wallace anymore?" Beto asks afflicted."Of course I will. Wallace committed two crime

Pamela is dumbfounded when she discovers that one more story she knew about Wallace and Vera was also another lie. Is there any truth to this nightmare?She starts walking in circles impatiently. "Josias, for God's sake! Is there anything in this story that's true? Everything I was told was a lie!""I know how you feel, Pamela." Josias tries to comfort her, "I always felt, when it all started, that there was something wrong with this story. I know you and Wallace weren't living the best love story, but everything got worse when Beto and Vera came on the scene. The poor Teodoro tried to deny everything and took the truth to his grave.""But, the truth always comes out, sooner or later." Pamela stops walking and recites this fact."So I ask you to understand the situation, and understand your husband." Josias asks, "Vera decided to reveal this not out of a sense of justice, but out of a thirst for revenge."Pamela sits on the couch trying to calm dow

Melissa doesn't understand how Josias could talk to Pamela after so many years, after everything she's done. She goes to the radio and turns it off, then goes to the couch and sits down in disgust."Honey, can you explain to me what you were doing at her house?" Melissa questions him while frowning.Flávia stops in the hallway and starts listening to the conversation from here."Beto was arrested by the police after I talked to Vera and told her that Beto confessed to the plot they set up against Pamela and Wallace," Josias explains objectively."And what did Beto do to deserve to be arrested?" Melissa asks next."Remember in 1983, when Wallace was admitted to the hospital all beaten up, and the story they said was that he had been robbed after leaving Vera's apartment? That's all a lie. Wallace and Vera were in his apartment, and Beto caught both of them. It was Beto who gave that horrendous beating. They lied so that no one would denounce

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, “

Brigitte and Theodore were chatting animatedly in the bustling corridors of Damascene Lawyers, sidestepping lawyers and clients moving briskly through the hall.“How are your studies going, Theodore?” Brigitte asked with a warm smile.“Excellent,” he replied. “Every now and then my dad hands me a case to look over.”“Must be nice, being the boss’s son,” she teased.Theodore chuckled heartily, clearly enjoying the perks of nepotism. 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

At Café Montanha, Rodrigo returned from the supermarket and took a long, satisfied look around his bustling business. 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

At the Vaztrans office, Suzy walked in expecting to find Sofia at her desk. 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

In the Vaztrans offices, William extended a freshly written check to Sofia. Standing nearby, Alan wore a solemn expression, watching the transaction with quiet attention.“Here you go, my dear partner,” William said with finality. “This is our salvation.”Sofia took the check and her eyes widened with disbelief. “The bank’s never going to cash this much for Suzy,” she muttered.William shrugged indifferently. “Then they’ll figure out another way to get the money back to her.”Alan leaned forward, trying to get a better look at the amount. “My dad’s being pretty generous, huh?”“Thank God,” Sofia said. 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. What do you think, honey?”Alan chuckled and leaned over, placing a gentle kiss on the crown of her head. “She’ll love that.”Still serious, William interjected, “So, who’s going to break the news?”Alan’s

At the Lafayette Mansion, in the elegantly furnished living room, Thierry was seething with fury. The revelation that criminals had used his supermarket as a stage for their schemes infuriated him.“How dare those idiots?” he barked. “And what about Leonardo? 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. Brigitte and Little Theo can’t have their reputations stained.”“And let’s not forget,” J.J. continued, “my father is a client of that firm. He knows Miguel Damascene personally — he’s the current owner.”Thierry clenched his jaw. “And there’s more. My wife is Little Theo’s sister—”
