At Ferro House, Briana was swimming in the pool while Mark watched her from a lounge chair, clad in a swimsuit.

The look Mark cast at Briana was possessive and almost predatory, ensuring that Briana would always be his, protected and away from other males.

Briana swam to the edge of the pool where Mark was, smiling at him. “Are you still going to stay so serious?”

“Brie, you still don’t understand how stupid your actions are.” Mark was grim, not willing to be gentle.

“Are you mad at me because I wanted to handle my problem my way, without people discovering your true identity?” Briana asked, still in good humor.

“What does one thing have to do with the other?” Mark asked fiercely.

“How did you explain Sérgio Saldanha about his dismissal?” Briana provoked him.

“That imbecile didn’t deserve any explanation. He can’t understand even the basics.” Mark looked toward the horizon where the sun was setting.

The pool’s automatic lighting turned on as night approached.

    Karl had to lean back to avoid being hit by the jet of wine Luana spat out, like the tail of a rocket taking off.The perfectly clean, white fine linen tablecloth was stained with red drops.Luana coughed exaggeratedly while Karl grimaced at his clumsy girlfriend.“Can’t you do things more calmly?” Karl asked, not caring about Luana’s supposed choking.It was Luana who had to put her hand to her back, patting herself. “PHEW! Honey, why didn’t you get up to dislodge my throat?”“What got stuck in your throat? You spat out the whole sip of wine, and almost in my face!”Luana looked at her ‘artwork’, reacting with consternation. “OH, no! My tablecloth! Will the laundry be able to remove these stains?”“They’re paid for that.” Karl crossed his arms, losing his appetite. “Honey, why did you react that way?”“I’m the one who wants to know: why do you care about the feelings of Celia the Promiscuous?” Luana leaned forward.“I don’t know. I guess it’s just to provoke you.”“That’s not funny a

    Ferro House, night.Mark thanked Celia for being present at an important moment in Briana’s life.Celia smiled, interested in this display of civility.“What’s wrong?” Mark asked.“It’s interesting to see that I’ve not only become Briana’s friend, but your friend too.”Mark scratched the back of his neck. “I never wanted to be your enemy, Celia.”Celia swallowed hard. No, Mark never wanted to be her enemy.It was she who decided to divorce him on their one-year wedding anniversary.It was she who didn't want to wait for Mark to grow in life and become someone important in the entertainment world.It was she who thought that growing in life through shortcuts and back doors would be the best way.Now, Mark lives with elegance and sophistication in this exquisite house while Celia is living for free at a friend’s house.Celia nodded, confirming, “No, you always wanted what was best for me, even though I didn’t deserve it.”“Please, let’s not discuss the past while my wife is just a door

    Moments later, Briana returned, looking a bit green. Celia had a strange expression, chewing another cube of sponge cake.“I think I ate something that made me sick.” Briana sat down, looking at the small plate.Celia shook her index finger. “No! Don’t think that! It wasn’t the sponge cake, it’s delicious!”“Tasty food can also make us sick,” Briana reasoned.“You’d better take a pregnancy test.” Celia suddenly smiled. “Have you thought about the possibility?”Briana felt a jolt. Last time, it was a false alarm...“I don’t want to be disappointed again, Celia. I already took a test, but it wasn’t true. Mark was very devastated!”“When was that?” Celia asked, surprised by the information.Briana was about to answer, but first, she realized something.“It was... it was during Viviana’s reign of terror at the company!” She reacted in astonishment. “Oh, my God! Was I feeling the side effects of the aphrodisiac and mistook them for pregnancy signs?”Celia was also indignant. A medicine mad

  • Chapter 689 Who Is the Mysterious Man

    Already in the bathtub, relaxed and leaning against one of the edges with the help of a towel around his neck, Mark felt like a king. With relaxing Buddhist-toned music in the background and scented candles, he for a while didn't think about problems or confusion.He just missed his beloved wife.After relaxing enough, Mark leaned over to grab his cell phone. Upon accessing his inbox, he found the video. Before pressing on the content to watch, Mark’s face tensed.‘It’s very likely that this mysterious man saw the camera and positioned himself so that his face wouldn’t be visible. If he was so determined not to tell Mauro who he was, that could have happened...’Already preparing for the worst, Mark pressed the screen. But what he saw surprised him.The man was near Mark’s preferred parking spot, pointing it out to Mauro as if asking if that’s where Mark parked (which indeed happened).Mark managed to see the man’s face......But he couldn’t see any resemblance or recognition!“Who ar

    “Am I hearing right?” Luana cackled. “You’re going to let this hen continue to live La Vida Loca in my man’s studios?”Briana rolled her eyes impatiently.There was no way around it: when Briana pleased one, the other would whinny. She would never be able to please both selfish women at the same time!Karl felt this too, taking his girlfriend by the shoulders. “Come on, honey. This is getting tiresome.”“I’m not leaving until this is resolved!” Luana fumed.Celia grabbed her hair in a clear sign of desperation. “For God’s sake, Luana, what else do you want from my life?!”“I want you away from my man!”“You reported me to Briana, saying I’m sleeping with various guys! How is that staying close to your man?”Luana approached, with a devilish smile, responding in a calm but cruel tone, “It’s just that you’re only sleeping with all those actors to provoke Karl, to make him jealous!”SLAP!Celia saw red, no longer in control of her actions. The slap was so hard that Celia’s fingernail scr

    Gene narrowed his eyes even more, looking almost oriental. Mark wondered if the HR manager needed glasses.“Any problem, Gene?” He asked.“Don’t you see it as a problem, someone unknown to us while you’re completely known to him? I bet he knows the color of your underwear!” Gene exclaimed indignantly.Mark raised an eyebrow. That joke again?“No, he doesn’t know,” Mark replied, maintaining his calm. “But we can check. Mauro said he was near my parking spot.”Gene calmed down too, understanding his boss’s idea. “There’s a camera right nearby. I remember Adrian Curtis...”“Forget him, and check the recording with the security team. We’ll get a good image of him, if possible.”Gene took out his cell phone and dialed the parking lot.From the parking lot guardhouse, Mauro answered, “Hello, Mauro speaking?”“Mauro, this is Gene. Manager Ferro requests today’s recordings showing the sinister man who peppered you with questions.”“Good idea, why didn’t I think of that before?” Mauro got exci
