The first time Pamela fell to the ground, Josias did not hear about this story. Melissa didn't tell him. Now the boy is witnessing this same situation.
Pamela doesn't know what to do. Fabrício wants her to seduce Josias so he can be with Melissa. Now Josias is in front of her, concerned about her fall. Was this an opportunity?
“Josias, don't worry.” Pamela knows this trick. She tells men ‘don't worry’ and they do the exact opposite.
“What do you mean, don't worry?” Josias reaches out and lifts Pamela off the floor like a gentleman, “Did you get hurt? I think Seu Teodoro has something in the lobby.”
Luckily there were no serious wounds or bloody scratches like the last time.
“You don't have to, I didn't have a scratch. It’s just the scare.” She responds sweetly with a smile.
Josias is surprised. This Pamela, who is in front of him, sweet and pleasant, is much better than

However now she is pretending for him to think that she has her good side.'A boy who had this disastrous background will never be able to rise in life!' Thought Pamela with contempt, although she was smiling at Josias, ‘This filthy room, with cracked walls, and very little furniture is all he will get. That’s why his best clothes are donated.’“Now you understand my situation.” Josias speaks relieved to see that she is reacting ‘favorably’.“Yes, I was a fool to judge you too hastily.” Pamela does not face Josias when she says this, a sign that she is lying and knows it.“Now we can understand each other better and stop causing problems and headaches for your best friend.” Josias is more excit

Uélton scandalously asks Josias if he took Pamela to the room. The attention of the other masons was unduly attracted, as they think that there was indecency between him and Pamela.“Hey, Josias, I thought you were a good boy,” Robson spoke in a tone that sounded mocking or scolding, depending on who was listening.“Leave the boy alone, he's not made of iron!” Milton opines with a chuckle.Well, whether there is immorality or not, the fact is that the general opinion of the workers is that Josias deserved to date a girl, even more with the appearance of him.But, Josias went red like pepper and tried to justify himself, “Calm down, guys, I don't want to get anybody pregnant.”“That's it, let's be careful,” Robson advises without even letting Josias know if he was joking or serious.Romualdo arrives and the workers stop joking.

Pamela says, “We, as women, don't have to worry about that. We only study so as not to be illiterate, but boys are the ones who have to worry about jobs!”"So explain to me why precisely the boys are the ones who run in the front and with more speed?" Melissa replies defiantly.Pamela was about to swear at Melissa when she saw Fabrício from a distance and stopped in time.Fabrício decided to show up when Melissa left school to surprise her.

Josias gets furious when he learns from Pamela that Melissa won a gift."Pamela, if you don't tell me now what Melissa won and from whom..." He speaks threateningly and very close to Pamela, she is vibrating with the approach and with the manly and tough tone of his voice very close to her."Ain, Josias, I don't want to pour water on your beer..." She says not so convincingly."I still don't drink, so you can pour!" Josias grabs Pamela by the shoulders."Okay, can you drop me first?" Pamela pretends that she is offended and Josias releases her, “Fabrício approached us when we left school and gave Melissa a package. She was embarrassed, but accepted for education.”"If she wanted to be polite, she had to throw the package on the floor and step on it!"

Tiago extends his hand and Josias greets him.Jeremiah is stunned, gaping. In addition to Josias defending him, he managed to tame the beast. Tiago is black, almost two meters tall, and much stronger and more muscular than Jeremiah. The other two who are next to him could very well be his bodyguards since Tiago looked like he was someone important.“Josias, we need to talk about your heroic act.” Tiago continues, “Elisa here spoke very well of you.”“He's my hero.” She speaks sweetly.Seeing this, Josias is sure that he had done the right thing in saving h

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.

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. 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

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—”

The quinceañera celebration continued in full swing at the Rocha Events Hall. Mary was now dancing with her uncle William. Despite his age, William still had the charm of a man who once graced soccer fields and magazine covers, and Mary’s friends were more than a little impressed.“My mom still keeps pictures of Mr. Campos from the ’80s,” one of her friends whispered to another, watching them dance. “He was such a heartthrob when he played soccer.”“I think my mom mentioned him too,” the second girl replied with a laugh.Andrew, catching a bit of their conversation, raised an eyebrow. “What are you girls talking about?”With mock innocence, the first friend smirked. “Jealous, Andrew? Don’t be. He’s just her hot uncle.”Andrew rolled his eyes, not rising to the bait. He knew exactly who William was.Meanwhile, William glanced around the dance floor and smiled at his niece. “I think I’m confusing your suitors, Mary.”“Let them be confused,” she replied sweetly. “I’m having a blast, Uncl
