Here Comes the Lord Chapter 297 Karl’s Testimony
At the Braspolis police station, Karl tries to help Mark's situation by providing a strong testimony. “How did you meet Mark Ferro, Mr. Carvalho?” Karl answered promptly, “I met him at a party held at the Braz Social Club. A little gathering to reconnect with our old college classmates.” Ribeiro was taken aback. “Really? That party didn’t have something to do with the arrest of two guests after quite a commotion occurred, with gang members trying to assault the female guests, did it?” Karl clicked his fingers. “THAT! It was at that party! Fernanda Gabas, a perpetual jealous of Briana, orchestrated that scandal, trying to ruin everything and then blaming it on her. She was arrested along with her boyfriend, who claimed to have connections to the underworld.” Ribeiro pursed his lips. “I was involved in that arrest. Small world.” “Not the world, Braspolis,” Karl quipped. “Well, I met Briana’s husband at that party. I remember several people accusing Mark of having called the gang
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 298 Get Me Your Best Lawyer
Mark asked Joana for a lawyer, leaving her stunned. Mark, with all his power, could turn the police station and the entire corporation upside down if he wanted to. But since he decided to maintain his disguise, he needed to act like an ordinary citizen. However, he would not settle for a mediocre option. He would have the best lawyers available. Joana cleared her throat. “Ahem... Manager Ferro, I may not be impartial, but my cousin Theodore Damascene is an excellent lawyer, the son of my late uncle.” “Isn’t he the current owner of the whole firm?” Mark asked with a smile. Joana, however, misunderstood his smile. “I mean, of course, we can offer you a cheaper lawyer.” Mark gestured. “That won’t be necessary, Joana. Well, do you know why I'm asking you this?” Joana nodded. “Yesterday, a sergeant with a comedian vibe showed up at Glamour looking for you. I read a rather uninformative article in LCN accusing you of having cut the brakes on the car belonging to Manager Vasconcelos’
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 299 Katrina Tries to Accuse Briana
“KATRINA!” Briana jumped up as if she felt thumbtacks on her chair. Katrina smiled devilishly as she entered Briana and Luana’s office. She slammed the door shut, in a sinister and frightening manner. Luana shoved her hand into her blazer pocket, prepared to push her phone if necessary. She asked, “What do you think you’re doing here? Do you and your husband really think you can come into this company and cause chaos—” “IS THIS A COMPANY?” Katrina rudely interrupted Luana. “It doesn’t seem like one to me. Here looks like a vile den of debauchery, according to Celia Soares.” Briana narrowed her eyes. “What do you have to do with that shameless hussy?” Katrina feigned surprise. “Oops! Did I accidentally reveal a secret about your husband?” “Mark has nothing to do with Celia anymore, thank goodness!” Briana shouted. Katrina was amused. “Celia is now an assistant at Vasconcelos Company, along with Adrian Curtis. It seems fate brought them back together. And they are both very emp
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 300 A Well-Chosen Butler
Regis stepped outside first to find out who was honking so obnoxiously. Fortunately, they didn’t live in a crowded neighborhood, or the neighbors would know that someone was visiting Mark in a flashy manner. As he approached the car, Regis felt an electric current run through his body. “Are you... James Ross?” “How does the butler know me if this is the first time I’ve set foot here?” James got out of the car with a mocking expression. “I recognized you from the newspapers and articles showing you leaving the Red Light nightclub,” Regis replied defiantly. James’s arrogant smile faded. “Well, the butler knows how to talk tough! I’m going to recommend to Mark that he fires you, you know-it-all!” “You didn’t come here to talk to my boss about domestic matters,” Regis interjected, blocking the path with gravel. “No, I came to talk to him about my brother-in-law’s attempted murder.” “Seems like you care a lot about your brother-in-law’s life, huh?” Regis raised one eyebrow. James
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 301 James Saw the Video
James couldn’t believe it.First, he took a huge kick to the stomach from Mark, leaving him sore for a day. Now, his butler had him pinned against the hood of the car, wrenching his left arm behind his back as if he wanted to break it!Can’t anyone have a civil conversation around here?“Let me go, you crazy butler! If you don’t, I’ll send the police after you instead of your boss!”“You have no grounds to imprison my boss!” Regis grumbled through clenched teeth. “I suggest you get out of here and never come back! Only Sandro Vasconcelos is allowed to step foot here!”“This is absurd!” James roared, feeling the pain intensify…Regis released his arm, just short of breaking it. James, in a panic, grasped his arm wide-eyed and gasping.This feels like a nightmare!“Get in that car and go! My boss doesn’t have time to talk to insignificant people like you! Let alone tamper with the brakes of someone not worth five cents!”“The butler really is a tough guy with sharp words, huh?” James sh
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 302 A Suspicion
James was thrilled to discover that Adrian had sent a copy of the video to his email!“Oh… how excellent! I have a copy of the video! Well, it’s better to keep this to myself. Someone must have hacked Adrian’s email; if I send it back to him, not only will they delete it again, but they’ll know I have it.”James relaxed, grinning broadly, leaning back in his chair.Katrina burst in like the hurricane that bore her name, fuming with rage.“Hey, don’t knock the books over like your father, alright?” James rushed, anticipating more chaos.Katrina took a deep breath and raised her hands up high. “With the strength of the Lord, I will fear no evil.”“Who’s trying to do you harm, dear?” James jumped up abruptly and went to her.“No one specific. But evil exists in the form of Briana Ferro.”James took both her hands. “Where have you been?”“I went to Glamour. I needed to confront the mastermind behind the murder,” Katrina answered with a trembling voice.James hugged his wife. “Don’t say th
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 303 I’ll Always Protect My Little Princess
Mark felt it wasn’t the time to relax and celebrate victory regarding the parking lot video.He and Vargas sat in red upholstered chairs to talk and plan. “Lord Ferro, tell me more about what you think.”“Here’s the thing, Vargas: just as Christopher has been insisting on accusing me of tampering with his family’s car brakes, James has started accusing me of being a criminal with my wife... in our intimate moments.”Vargas widened his eyes, horrified. “WOW! How can this guy have such a twisted mind?”“That’s why I started to suspect. Where did this crazy idea come from?” Mark frowned. “Then I remembered the video Adrian tried to show at that party. Anyone who watches that video without knowing what Anthony Curtis did to Briana is going to think I took advantage of her that day.”“So, James Ross saw the video too?” Vargas asked, perplexed.“It must have been that. It would explain why Adrian quit Glamour and found another job so quickly, precisely at Vasconcelos Company.”“And now your
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 304 Briana Tries to Dialogue with James
Briana was determined to defend her and Mark’s names at any cost. “James, I need you to listen to me and understand.” She pleaded. “Mark and I are not responsible for everything that’s happening in our family.”Upon realizing that Briana would not admit to loving James, he felt disappointed. Breaking his inflated smile, he retorted, “Briana, you came here just to talk about that?”“What do you mean, JUST to talk about that?” Briana frowned. “We NEED to talk about it! James, if you really love me, you wouldn’t believe such a slander.”“Hey! Don’t come at me with those arguments!” James extended his index finger. “Don’t talk like you care about my feelings for you. That would be very vile of you, Briana, and it would prove that my wife was right about you.”Briana felt outraged by James’s reaction. “You’re acting like a teenager who has a crush on a high school beauty; still, you have the nerve to say ‘my wife’ as if it meant something to you.”James shook his head. “This is what I need

Moved, Briana stepped closer. Celia quickly brought her fingers to her eyes in a faux gesture of wiping away tears. The illusion worked — Briana believed she was catching Celia in a private, vulnerable moment.“There’s no shame in crying,” Briana said softly.“I just think I need to keep it professional,” Celia answered, resuming her composed tone. “I’m here to work. I should head to the Times of Glory set.”Then Briana had a sudden thought. “Oh! Celia... Do you, by any chance, have a special interest in Jake Brett?”Celia raised her eyebrows, surprised that her bait had worked faster than she’d expected.“Any particular reason you’re asking?” she said with feigned innocence.“N-no, not really,” Briana stammered. “Just... you were so quick to mention being in his dressing room — working, of course!”Celia’s lips curled into a teasing smirk. “Yes, I was working. But when I walked in, he was completely naked.”At that exact moment, the office door swung open — and Sandro stepped in just
Chapter 524 Awarding Celia an Oscar – Best Actress
Frank’s voice broke the silence. “I think they wanted to punish her for marrying you.”Mark let out a sigh of frustration. “That only proves how unprofessional they are. A brilliant series being sacrificed because of petty family drama — something the audience has no part in.”“Well,” Frank said with a note of urgency, “that just means we need to give everything we’ve got to the new series we’re producing at the Pratt Entertainment studios.”Mark allowed himself a small smile, a memory surfacing. “By the way... is your son aware we’ve hired Ray Dixon?”Frank immediately began to sweat. He tugged at the collar of his blue shirt.“Er... What did my son do this time?”“Nothing... yet,” Mark said. “But he’s convinced Ray Dixon is trying to seduce my wife. You think that’s possible?”Frank’s nerves
Chapter 523 What the Lack of Marital Intimacy Does
That morning at the Vasconcelos mansion, the dining room retained a heavy, almost ceremonial silence, as the elders finished their breakfast.The atmosphere was thick, brittle — until Katrina entered in a brisk stride, interrupting the tension with her voice.“Why is everyone eating in this funereal silence?” she asked, puzzled by the somber mood.Althea, ever the opportunist when it came to timing, seized the moment. “Katrina, I was informed that you secured a sponsor for our company. Congratulations.”Katrina beamed modestly and took her seat. As she settled in, her gaze swept the table.Gilson and Claudia exchanged satisfied smiles, while Sandro and Nadir wore sour expressions that couldn’t have been more obvious.“What’s the matter, uncle and aunt?” Katrina teased. “Didn’t you two have a ‘wonderful’ and ‘exciting’ day yesterday?”&ldquo
Chapter 522 Congratulations, Katrina
Early in the morning, within the elegant Vasconcelos Mansion, Gilson and Claudia strolled into the dining room hand in hand, laughing like teenagers reliving the innocence of their courtship days. But as they entered the room, their cheerful expressions gave way to surprise.There, seated at the table, were Sandro and Nadir — very much alive and present. Sandro looked utterly spent, with heavy bags under his eyes and a posture that screamed exhaustion. Clearly, the past twenty-four hours had been physically intense for him.Nadir, in sharp contrast, appeared radiant and unbothered — fully made up and calmly stirring sugar into her coffee.“Did you lose something?” Nadir asked indifferently, not even glancing up.Gilson dropped into a seat with a smirk. “Sandro did! What’s the matter, big bro? Can’t handle the heat anymore?”A sharp voice echoed from elsewhere in the house.“Who’s speaking obscenities again?” came Althea’s unmistakable tone.Gilson froze, silenced like a scolded pup.M
Chapter 521 Announcement on the Radio
The morning sky over Braspolis was mostly clear, promising a pleasant day without oppressive heat. As the sun began to climb, the elegant facade of the Ferro House stood quietly in the early light.Inside, in the dining room, Mark and Briana were having breakfast. Julian, wearing his chef’s coat but still visibly embarrassed about having gone swimming the day before, served the morning dishes with his head lowered and voice subdued.“Why are you sad today, Julian?” Briana asked gently.“Nothing, Mrs. Ferro,” Julian muttered, avoiding eye contact.Mark cast him a look that served as a silent command to leave, prompting Julian to retreat quickly from the room.Briana turned to her husband. “Do you have any idea what that was about?”Mark, cool as ever, replied, “The cook knows he’s not supposed to try seducing Mrs. Ferro.”Briana let out a loud “Pfff” and burst into laughter, momentarily forgetting her table manners.“When and how?” she asked between giggles.“Yesterday. At the pool. Yo
Chapter 520 Renewing a Series
Meanwhile, at the Dixon Penthouse, Ray Dixon lounged poolside, basking in the afternoon sun. Sunglasses shaded his eyes as he flipped through the script for his upcoming single-camera sitcom. The vibe was easygoing — until his phone buzzed.The screen lit up with the name GERENTE FERRO. Ray had deliberately saved the contact under that name, knowing that if anyone else happened to glimpse his screen, they wouldn’t read “LORD Ferro.” Better to be safe than scandalized.He answered coolly. “Hello?”Mark dragged out a chair and sat, phone pressed to his ear.“Hello,” he said smoothly. “How’s it going? Have they slandered you yet?”On the other end, Ray chuckled. “Nah. Linda’s boys probably have their asses glued to their seats, deleting every little rumor.”“I’m sure,” Mark replied, his tone calm but cautious. “Still, it never hurts to be prepared. Here’s what I suggest — get a statement ready. Something you can release if someone does manage to stir up a scandal.”“Got it,” Ray said. Th

Gilson flopped into the seat, exhaling sharply.“Alright. You barely signed the sponsorship contract, and now you’re already looking to back out over some gossip piece that doesn’t even mention my daughter?”Lawrence’s expression darkened. “It doesn’t mention your daughter yet. But social media is brimming with implications.”Gilson scoffed. “You should be smart enough not to give Internet rumors any credit.”“Not everything said on the Internet is false, Gilson,” Lawrence replied, his voice even but firm.That forced Gilson to pause. He swallowed hard, and then nodded reluctantly. “Fine. So you’re choosing to believe the lies they’re spreading?”“I’m asking for a good reason to stay in this partnership,” Lawrence said, leaning forward. “I’m not looking to bail out. I want to see the third season of You Can’t Buy Happiness.”Gilson cleared his throat — loudly and unnecessarily — as he weighed his words. He knew this was serious business.“You know my niece Briana was heading up that p
Chapter 518 Selecting Comments
“Well,” Luana said smugly, “looks like she got the message.”“What message?!” Briana’s voice rose, sharp with exasperation.“That she can have as many guys as she wants — as long as she leaves mine alone.”“Luana,” Briana said, trying to keep her cool, “maybe Celia never had eyes for Karl in the first place.”Feigning reasonableness, Luana nodded slowly. “Yeah, of course. Now that she’s locked up in Jake Brett’s dressing room getting ‘pounded’ by one of those endless hunks from Times of Glory, I’m totally at peace.”Briana blinked, stunned by the venom in Luana’s tone. “It hasn’t crossed your mind that Celia and Jake might actually have something... real? Solid and healthy?”Luana scoffed with the kind of contempt that only she could master. “Brie, you’re sweet. Innocent. But women like Celia aren’t for marrying and raising kids. That’s why Mark dumped her for you.”Briana opened her mouth to correct her — that it had actually been the other way around — but honestly, she didn’t have
Chapter 517 Celia Is Moving On (?)
Celia stepped inside the dressing room of actor Jake at Glamour Studios, late afternoon, without knocking.From her point of view, she walked in at the exact moment Jake was completely naked, squatting with his smooth, round backside fully exposed in her direction — like a baby’s.Bursting into laughter, Celia couldn’t hold back. “Ha, ha, ha... If I had my phone right now...”But Jake didn’t flinch, not even a little. His reaction, or rather the lack of it, made it clear this wasn’t the first time a woman had walked in on him mid-change.Still turned away, he casually reached for a pair of jeans and began pulling them on.“Something for me?” he asked with calm familiarity.Switching into assistant mode, Celia checked the clipboard in her hand. “You’re done for today. But tomorrow’s got more. Do you have the script for the next episode?”Jake turned to her with an easy smile, then gestured toward his vanity.On the vanity, the script sat fresh and untouched, its crisp pages practically
