Chapter 775 Why Didn’t You Fire Celia When You Had the Chance?
Katrina and Patricio appeared before Gilson in his office. Gilson was excited, eager for what Claudia might be preparing for them tonight.“Daughter, why do you look so sad? You don’t need to worry about me; I’m fine!”“How’s that?” Katrina felt lost with the conflicting information.“I just came from Dr. Vargas’s office, and he said my condition remains stable,” Gilson said, changing his tone to something more joking. “He even said I can go back to an active love life with your mom!”Katrina smiled, forgetting her own problems for a moment. “That’s great, Dad! If I know my mom well, she probably ordered THAT lingerie to charm you tonight. Get ready for some exciting moments, huh?”Patricio blushed like a teenager. He felt like an intruder.Gilson noticed. “Heh, your boyfriend is embarrassed.”“I don’t know if I should hear these details, guys,” Patricio said, scratching the back of his neck.Katrina decided to complain about what happened earlier, but she was less angry. “Dad, I intr
Chapter 774 Mary Ellen Wants to Understand
Mary Ellen entered the ‘Times of Glory’ studios, relieved to see that Karl hadn’t arrived yet. She looked around as if searching for someone.Not finding who she wanted, Mary Ellen headed for the dressing rooms, drawn like a magnet straight to Jake’s dressing room.She entered without knocking. Fortunately for Jake, even though he was shirtless, he was decent, sitting at the vanity, reviewing the script for his upcoming scenes.Jake was startled by the intrusion. “Yikes! What do you want, Mary Ellen?”Mary Ellen pointed to the vanity. “They put in a new mirror, huh?”“I couldn’t keep going without one,” Jake said, closing the script and resting it on his lap.“Now you’re going to tell me that you voluntarily went to the man’s engagement party who broke the previous mirror?” Mary Ellen closed the door, trying to be threatening. “What’s really going on, Jake?”“Nothing much is happening,” Jake replied, standing up.Mary Ellen narrowed her eyes, suspicious: isn’t Jake going to put on a s
Chapter 773 Differences Between Marriages
Briana got up from her desk, not knowing how to dodge this eternal war. “Karl, you need to understand that I am pregnant.” Karl wagged his finger. “Don’t your use pregnancy as an excuse to avoid doing what needs to be done.” “Why is it so imperative that I fire Celia?” Briana hesitated, hoping Karl would give up out of exhaustion. “Why is it so imperative that Celia REMAINS at the company?” Karl still had a fierce expression. “Do you want to wait for that shameless woman to focus her attention on Mark?” “NO!” Briana yelled, terrified. “That will never happen.” “It will, if you keep around such a treacherous person,” Karl replied sincerely. Briana narrowed her eyes at him. “You seem to speak from experience. Before, you were a defender.” “What’s the point of defending Celia when she keeps getting herself into trouble and misunderstandings all the time?” Karl cleverly hides his own part in this mess. “People are talking that I had an affair with Celia after the incident with the
Chapter 772 A Pertinent Question
Mark went to the pool area of Ferro House and found Luana sunbathing in a bikini that Karl would have liked. Relaxed comfortably in a lounge chair, she smiled behind her sunglasses. “Hello, Mark! How is Brie?” “Why do you ask?” Mark approached her, serious. “Because I was thinking afterwards: maybe Karl or Celia avoided going to work, leaving Brie alone. Since she’s pregnant...” Mark smiled faintly. Everyone avoided working, but now they’re changing their minds. Everyone — except Celia, the one responsible for all this, who was content to binge-watch series on the comfort of her sofa. Mark was about to say something but held back in time, remembering he had accepted that Celia stay at home. “Did you want to say something, Mark?” Luana noticed. “Uh... You don’t need to worry, Luana. Karl showed up to work. Actually, I needed him to come.” “Oh,” Luana simply said that. Mark felt frustrated and stirred up the conversation, “Aren’t you going to say anything else?” “Is there any
Chapter 771 Time to Fire Celia
Katrina turned to Patricio, grateful for the support he gave her, even though she caught him off guard.“Patricio, thank you so much. I know we didn’t plan this before, but...”“Hey, what’s there to plan?” Patricio smiled to soothe her. “You need to communicate more with me before making decisions. However, I’ve always thought about formalizing our union.”“You swear?” Katrina’s eyes sparkled like an infatuated teenager.“Yes. Out of everything your family says, at least that makes sense.” Patricio hugged Katrina. “After seeing how your uncle despises and ignores family ties, I want to marry you more than ever and get you out of Vasconcelos Mansion. Our child won’t be born into a toxic home with crazy people.”“My parents aren’t crazy, dear,” Katrina raised an eyebrow.“You understand me. From what it looks, it’s your uncle who calls the shots in the family,” Patricio released her.“That wasn’t how it was before!” Katrina crossed her arms in defiance. “My father was the boss. But beca
Chapter 770 Dr. Vargas’s Permission
The cardiology office where Gilson entered was NOT Vargas’s, but with Lord Ferro’s influence, that’s what happened.Gilson even looked at the diploma of “Dr.” Vargas on the wall behind the doctor, who was smiling kindly. “You may come in, Mr. Vasconcelos.”Gilson entered, closed the door, and sat down.“How have you been feeling?” Vargas asked in the same tone all doctors use.“I’m feeling better, doctor. It doesn’t even seem like such an incident happened to me.” Gilson smiled. “I’ve been following the diet, tolerating my older brother, and I started exercising again to get my abs back — the ones that impressed my wife... Uh... I mean...”Gilson felt he overstepped and turned red as a beet. Vargas blinked in complicity.“No need to be embarrassed, Mr. Vasconcelos. Many men, after surviving a cardiac arrest, wonder when they can resume intimate activity with their wife — if it’s even possible to resume, to be honest.”“Well, since we’re being frank and open...” Gilson offered a weak s
