At the warehouse, Vera is outraged at Tiago's proposal.
"What are you saying? I don't want your money!"
Tiago scoffs at her denial, "Of course you do. Everyone wants money."
"Could be, but I don't want to make money if it means pulling away from Adrian." She narrows her eyes, "And why did this become your interest?"
Tiago crosses his arms, "I'm doing Moacyr Barbosa a favor."
Vera widens her eyes, "Adrian's dad doesn't agree with us?"
Tiago scoffs, "No parent in the world would agree, Vera. Look in the mirror, you're not worthy of lasting relationships."
Vera raises her hand to slap Tiago, but her hand stays in the air.
Tiago asks mockingly, "What is it?"
"I don't know if you're going to sue me for slapping you, even if deservedly."
"You better take my money and get out of town." Tiago insists.
Vera yells, no longer minds being cloaked by the goods, "Never! And you can be sure I'll tell Adrian everything, yo

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

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

Don’t be. He’s just her hot uncle.”Andrew rolled his eyes, not rising to the bait.

I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane...

That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you
