Melissa can see Ernesto hide the new copy of Maggiezine under one of the trays.
"I think there's no danger of showing us Maggiezine now, Ernesto."
Josias reacts tensely and takes a sip of black coffee to hide his angry look. Ernesto shakes his legs.
"You'd better read it later."
"Allow me to read, Ernesto." William requests the magazine.
Ernesto gives William an annoyed look, aware of what this is about. He hands him the magazine. William smiles as he reads the cover.

Josias thanks him with a gesture.Tiago greets him, "We want to say right away that it was a pleasure to have you with us, Romualdo."Romualdo gives a weak smile; it looks like they're saying goodbye to him for having a terminal illness, "OK.

Romualdo is irritated by Josias's proposal to replace the company's name from 'Silva' to 'Rocha. He takes it to his heart."I didn't know I was so hated!""It's not about hating you." Josias explains, "According to my wife, just as the company's name was called Silva Constructions, now it must have the last name of the new president.""And you're sure it was your wife's idea?"Tiago raises his hand. It's dangerous to insult his master's wife!"Excuse me, I don't think that's the case. Romualdo, we understand that the company's current name refers to your last name because you were the one who came up with the idea and sought me out for the partnership.""For sure," Romualdo nods."But now I believe the public will better identify the company with the name Josias if he is the one who will introduce himself as the new leader."Octavio once again saves the discussion, "I think we can keep the company's corporate name as before and

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

In the Mountain Penthouse living room, the atmosphere was far from serene. The heated discussion between Suzy and her boyfriend’s family showed no sign of calming down.“I can’t believe this!” Suzy exclaimed, her voice tight with indignation. “You all actually think I’m in love with Luís Vasquez!”Karen raised an eyebrow, her tone biting. “You’re not?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Suzy barked back. “I’m in love with Felipe — I love him!”Kelvin, unmoved, folded his arms. “Just not as much as you love your money and your... ‘investments.’”Diane lifted a hand, hoping to bring reason to the conversation. “Suzy, I’ve turned a deaf ear to all the gossip about you. I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane... I don’t know why Felipe insists on believing the lies João Paulo QUEIRÓS keeps spinning!”Daryl’s expression darkened. “So the problem lies with the journalist, then. Looks like I’ll have to deal with

It was time to drop the bomb.“According to my uncle Eugenio,” she began, “Felipe barged into his office and announced that he wanted to break up with me — because my uncle was happy about me being featured on the cover of Maggiezine.”Everyone looked even more stunned.“Wait, what does that have to do with anything?” Kelvin asked, frowning.Suzy explained, “Felipe saw my uncle thanking Luís for sort of encouraging me to accept the interview with Maggie.”Daryl exhaled sharply. “So my son just had a jealous outburst. That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you
Chapter 3234 The Girlfriend Showed Up
At the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin and Daryl were relieved that everything had turned out okay. Diane and Karen were nearby, on the sofas, chatting cheerfully. “God was merciful and allowed our son to live a few more years,” Diane declared. “Now, you both need to rest,” Karen patted Kelvin’s chest. “We slept beautifully while you two were in that sterile lounge.” Kelvin yawned once more. “I think I’ll take my dear wife’s advice; what do you think, Daryl?” “Who said we own the place?” Daryl yawned as well. The ladies laughed at their funny husbands. The doorbell rang. Tony passed through the living room, offering, “I’ll get it.” When Tony opened the door, he was surprised by the visitor. “Miss Cogo?” “How funny, you don’t call me by my first name. Did Felipe manage to talk to you before the coma?” Suzy asked bitterly, without smiling. Tony reacted perplexed by this torrent of unfriendly words. “Uh... Come in, please.” Suzy entered, ready for the storm. “Who is it, big brothe

The next day, Matthew Hogan entered the General Hospital lounge and found Daryl and Kelvin incredibly exhausted but hopeful. “Doctor, how did it go?” Daryl nearly jumped on Matthew. “Calm down, the patient survived the surgery. It’s just a matter of time before he’s back in his room.” “Oh, thank God!” Kelvin cheered. Daryl couldn’t resist and hugged Matthew. “Thank you so much, doctor!” Matthew smiled, somewhat awkwardly, but aware that it was a common reaction. “You’re welcome, we did everything we could.” “Yeah, I understand.” Daryl released the hug, rubbing his eyes — whether from sleep or wiping away a tear. “It’s going to take a little while. I suggest you both go home and rest a bit,” Matthew said. “I think we’ll do just that,” Kelvin yawned. “Now that the danger has passed, I think I deserve it. Doctor, let us know if anything happens,” Daryl requested, patting the doctor’s shoulder. “I’ll do. And congratulations to you both.” Matthew left the lounge. Kelvin yawned a

At the Rocha Hotel, Eugenio and Jake are talking to Suzy about what is happening. Jake was upset. “Suzy, haven’t you gone to visit your boyfriend yet?” “I don’t know if it’s a good idea to show up there right now.” Suzy lowered her head. “The fight happened... here?” Eugenio responded indignantly, “Yes, in my beloved living room. Luís lost his temper when Felipe called him ‘Spanish Stallion.’“ Suzy lifted her head, completely changing her posture. “WHAT? Well, then, the beating didn’t come out of nowhere!” “Come on, sis, don’t go along with this,” Jake advised her. “They’re saying Felipe’s condition is serious.” “Serious is Luís getting teased every single day by the nickname he despises the most!” Suzy exclaimed. Eugenio decided to tell the whole story, “Suzy, there’s a lot more you don’t know.” “Tell me, uncle!” “Felipe, before being assaulted, said he wouldn’t continue dating you, claiming that the Cogo family would always prefer Luís.” Suzy reacted, paralyzed by this inf
