2021-06-01 19:17:49There’s panic and commotion on Raul Coelho Avenue, with the running over of Pamela. The blow that she suffered was so strong that she even flew for a few centimeters. She fell on the asphalt and is now unconscious.
“PAMELA!” Melissa screams at the top of her lungs.
The other students who approached the school flock to it. The driver gets out of the car and despairs at the scene.
“I'm sorry, it wasn't my intention! Why did she cross out of the crosswalk and all distracted?”
The students tried to blame the driver and discredit him, but Melissa defended him. She notes that the driver is black and burly; if he gets irritated, he may want to attack clueless students with punches and kicks.
“Jenny, go back to the slum and tell her parents!” Melissa orders, even though she knows that only Carmen will come.
Jenny runs out and crosses the favela, drawing the attention of the neighbors once again.

How much did it cost?”“I do not know.” Melissa replies serenely, “I didn't open the package until I got home. I didn't expect it, but it was a good gift.”“I'm glad you're enjoying it, Melissa.” Josias gives a faintly smile.“Come on, honey, let's go to the kitchen to prepare dinner,” Dora calls her daughter and winks at Simeão.Simeão, who wanted to talk in the kitchen, sits down again on the sofa.

You two... did he manage to seduce you? Damn bastard!”Josias takes advantage of the distraction and gets up, pushing William away.

God is being generous to me, Seu Teodoro, and I need to thank Him.”“Yes, Everaldo's promise is being fulfilled,” Teodoro remembers Josias when it all started.

We will still see, Miss Chaves, but one thing I guarantee: there was not only blood on the patient's pants. Excuse me."Carmen didn't even dare to call her parents after that information. She decided to wait a few more hours until the blood test results.When the result came out, Carmen eagerly read the sheets that were handed to her: a Pamela egg was fertilized and was just beginning to form, but with the impact of the accident, Pamela's body could not support it and expelled it, in the form of bleeding...Well, six-month-old fetuses can't take hard knocks, let alone an egg of a few days!However, if Pamela was no

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—”

Don’t worry.”Diane’s eyes brimmed with tears. “My baby boy...”“Hey, Mom!” Felipe greeted her playfully. “Back from vacation — just please, for the love of God, don’t make me sit or lie down already!”Laughter erupted from everyone. Kelvin settled him into the comfortable armchair.“Doctor’s orders, Felipe. You just had surgery,” he reminded.“I swear, I’m okay!” Felipe insisted.“Maybe now, it looks that way,” Diane said gently. “But we can’t push our luck.”“Exac
Chapter 3238 Mary’s Quinceañera (2)
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
