Chapter 800 A Job Interview Turned Into a Lunch
Karl’s fury reached its peak when Jake hurled the script in his face. It didn’t hurt, of course, but the gesture carried all the venom and disrespect the actor harbored toward the supervisor of ‘Times of Glory’.“Do you want to be fired, or are you begging for dismissal with cause?” Karl asked, his tone sharp, almost menacing.“You don’t have the power for that!” Jake shot back, defiant.Karl narrowed his eyes. “Do you really want to test your luck?”The younger man bent to gather the scattered pages, his hands trembling with indignation. “This is absurd! Celia was forced out for reasons that had nothing to do with the company, and now you want to pull the same stunt with me?”“You’re not indispensable to Glamour,” Karl replied coldly. “Your character can die in ‘Times of Glory,’ or we can replace you in the blink of an eye.”Jake sneered. “Recasting actors? That’s so… soap opera.”Karl’s expression darkened. “Show some respect for the series you work on. You see? You’ve just handed m
Chapter 799 Going Back to The Company She Fled
“If you are intent on starting a war before she even sets foot inside the building,” Gilson muttered, “I hardly know how to respond. Sandro will soon be buzzing demands in my ear, and I, lately, have been making every effort to avoid unnecessary stress.”Claudia groaned and dragged her hands down her face in frustration. “Oh, so now you’ll use your heart condition as an excuse to shirk your duty as CEO?”“And what exactly is that duty, according to you?”“To keep that tramp from reintegrating herself into this company, and—”She was cut short by the sharp ring of Gilson’s desk phone. The piercing sound shattered the air like a gavel. Relieved by the interruption, Gilson snatched the receiver with visible eagerness, as if even the most tedious business call were preferable to his wife’s tirade.“Presidency,” he said curtly.“Hello, CEO Vasconcelos,” came the receptionist’s voice on the line. “Miss Celia Soares is here in the lobby. She says she has a job interview scheduled.”“Send her
Chapter 798 The Baby’s Nursery
“Wait,” Luana said slowly. “I thought Celia had left Vasconcelos in something close to a panic?”Briana reacted very still, her eyes narrowing.“My mother told me Uncle Gilson and Aunt Claudia were sexually exploiting the lower-level employees there,” she thought. “And Celia was one of Uncle Sandro’s mistresses, according to the same story…”Aloud, she asked, “How did they manage to get in touch with Celia so quickly?”Mark’s reply was bitter. “It seems they haven’t forgotten the good old days when they forced her to work ‘overtime.’”Luana threw her head back and laughed uproariously, caring nothing for Celia’s fate.To her, the idea of Celia returning to serve once more as a plaything for the suited men of Vasconcelos — even for Gilson himself — was nothing short of hilarious.******At Ferro House, Regis led Sandro and Nadir into a spacious, unused room. Nadir’s throat tightened when she noticed the detail that set her heart racing: the room had its own balcony, overlooking the poo
Chapter 797 Closing Another Chapter
Mark took a deep breath, uncertain of what else to do.Celia seized the silence, bent over the papers, and signed with renewed speed, determined to finish before Mark could try anything reckless.“I already received a call from Katrina,” she said as she signed. “My position is still available at Vasconcelos.”Mark exploded. “You’re going back to the company where they ‘used’ you over and over again?”Celia bit her lower lip, a shiver of longing running through her at the memory of the ruthless nights she had spent with the suited men at Vasconcelos.“I’m no longer your business,” she said with a shrug. “Focus on your pregnant wife.”He wanted to say more, but the weight of Gene’s presence forced him into silence.Celia signed the last page and rose with solemn composure, as though closing another chapter in her cycle of depravity.*******Meanwhile, in Jake’s dressing room, the actor sat at his vanity, reciting lines from his script.Yet the words blurred together in front of him, the
Chapter 796 The Rumors Pointed to You
Sandro entered unsuspectingly in the kitchen at the Ferro House, completely unaware that Nadir and Julian were behaving like lovers caught in the act.“Did you understand, my love?” he asked warmly.Snapping out of her distraction, Nadir forced a quick response. “Ah, yes… But I’m not one of those boring people who think the staff must be kept apart from everything.” She turned toward Julian. “Isn’t that right, young man?”Julian blushed even deeper, painfully aware of why he had to swim in the pool far from the masters’ gaze.Sandro, still oblivious, slipped an arm around his beloved, fiery wife.“And what were you really doing here, hm?” he asked with candor.“I was suggesting today’s menu for our pregnant daughter,” Nadir replied quickly.“That’s right, Mr. Vasconcelos,” Julian added timidly, eager to support her. “We’re taking very good care of Mrs. Ferro.”“I’m glad to hear that,” Sandro said.“In fact, I wanted to ask Regis about converting one of the rooms into the baby’s nurser
Chapter 795 New Proposal to Celia
Briana stepped into her office at Glamour and immediately noticed Karl fiddling suspiciously with his shirt, as if he had just finished buttoning it up. Luana, on the other hand, looked perfectly composed behind her desk, calm and unbothered.“Good morning, lovebirds,” Briana said lightly, her eyes narrowing. “Did I interrupt something?”“Of course not, my dear friend!” Luana exclaimed, springing to her feet and embracing her warmly.Karl, still facing away, ran a quick hand through his hair, trying to appear casual.“I just heard that the staff drove Celia straight to HR,” Briana remarked.“She wasn’t planning on being fired,” Luana said with a sharp edge in her voice. “She wanted to confront me again, but my friends stood up for me.”“What a shame, Brie,” Karl chimed in. “I know how much you and Mark tried to help her.”A seed of suspicion stirred in Briana’s chest. “Exactly… and that help is starting to look suspicious.”Luana frowned. “What do you mean?”Briana sounded a bit jealo
