“Oh, it’s Luana. Did she guess?” Briana picked up her phone.

“I texted Karl,” Mark informed her.

“Then we’ll know how she—” Briana was interrupted as soon as she answered Luana.

“BRIE! You need to help me! Karl left the apartment after we fought because of Celia!”

Briana pulled her head back so sharply that Mark moved closer to her, thinking she was going to fall out of her chair.

Even with the phone on normal audio, Mark could still hear, albeit faintly, what Luana was cackling.

“My God, darling, be careful! Are you okay?”

“I’m fine. It seems Luana hasn’t received the good news yet.” Briana rubbed her eardrum, which hurt from the torrent of Luana’s unpleasant words.

Then, she took a deep breath and put the phone back to her ear.

“Hello? Brie, are you there?”

“I heard more than enough, my friend!” Briana gently reprimanded her. “What happened there?”

“The usual: I talk about Celia, and he keeps defending her!” Luana whinnied.

“But why do you insist on talking about her?” Briana rolled

  • Chapter 720 As Soon as He Arrived, He Already Caused a Headache

    Sérgio dared to open the door crack even wider to observe the scene.He was pleased to see Gilson, Sandro, and Nadir acting professionally, discussing Katrina’s possible dismissal. It’s not about the CEO’s daughter; it’s about an employee who has brought dishonor to the company, causing revenue to drop. Nothing personal, just business. Sandro extended his hand, and Gilson shook it. “Congratulations, Gilson. Now you’re acting like a CEO.” “Thank you, Sandro. Hearing that from you means a lot.” Gilson nodded. Nadir smiled with satisfaction, relieved that Claudia was not present. That harpy would be neighing right now, wanting chaos and conflicts to continue. Sérgio smiled in approval until he heard footsteps echoing behind him. The actor tried to straighten up and step away from the door, but it seemed that Patricio, the person approaching, had already noticed he was pressed against it, spying. “What do you think you’re doing there?” Patricio asked with authority. “SHH!” Sérgi

  • Chapter 719 Can’t Stop Belittling Others

    “Didn’t you hear Efraim say he won’t wait any longer for the article?” Briana scratched her neck, trying to make sense of it all. “Didn’t you hear Mary Ellen say she could barely find anything about Lord Ferro online? Clearly, he’s living a quiet life out of the spotlight — for his own safety!”“Safety?” Luana asked, jaw dropping.“Someone as important as Lord Ferro, who’s won so many battles at such a young age, can’t just walk around freely. Someone could be watching him... retaliation... maybe from a defeated army...” Briana smiled at her improvised explanation.It made sense, right?But Luana wasn’t quite convinced. “So the guy needs to live in hiding to stay alive, right?”“Exactly! At least, that’s the explanation that came to my mind.” Briana gave her a thumbs-up.“Then why the hell does Mary Ellen want to find him?” Luana rolled her eyes, clearly using Briana’s explanation as ammunition to continue humiliating Mary Ellen. “If she reveals his whereabouts, wouldn’t that be consi

  • Chapter 718 License or Dismissal: Your Choice

    “No, Dad, it’s not that simple,” Katrina broke the suffocating silence after recovering from the shock. “I want to have a career, and Patricio doesn’t want me just sitting at home.”“That’s out of the question. I heard about one of the actors who caused a scene at the head writer’s party for ‘You Can’t Buy Happiness.’” Gilson shook his head.“I handled it.” Katrina raised an eyebrow. “What? That part of the gossip didn’t make it to you?”Gilson glared at her, his voice laced with acid. “I hope you didn’t ‘handle it’ the same way you did with Lawrence Sodré.”Claudia was utterly shocked and pinched Gilson’s arm, making him let out an unexpected and effeminate “OUCH!”Katrina felt her face burn with anger. “And you wanted to slap me... when I’m the one who actually has the right!”Gilson rubbed his sore arm with his other hand. “Don’t make me even angrier, daughter! You said I should act like the CEO? Fine. It’s decided! You’ll take a leave of absence when the pregnancy makes work impos

  • Chapter 717 Luana Just Gets in the Way

    Mary Ellen looked with contempt at the scandalous Luana, who was laughing nonstop, no one knew what about. But Luana knew.After controlling her laughter and wiping away tears, she took a deep breath. “Phew! That was the funniest thing I’ve heard all week.”“Does that mean your life has been bland and boring, huh?” Mary Ellen provoked her.Luana didn’t feel intimidated or offended. She shook her head, continuing, “Are you saying that the famous journalist follows ‘tips’ from just anyone who comes along?”Mary Ellen became even more irritated, realizing that Luana was laughing at her skills as a journalist. “Any problem with the way I conduct my work?”“Maybe Efraim or even Brie have a problem; but they’re too gentle to tell you. I, who am not a journalist, can see that this method of work is not the most productive. Did this ‘contact’ of yours give you a story tip without any starting point, telling you to research everything from scratch? And you’re still surprised you haven’t found

  • Chapter 716 Again, the Diamond Membership Card

    Mark met with Gene in the latter’s office. Gene was extremely worried about what Mark was telling him about Mary Ellen’s story.“Lord Ferro, I didn’t know about this!” He exclaimed, dumbfounded.Mark maintained his cold composure, saying, “You had no way of knowing, being the HR director, Gene.”“But someone should know. I think you should place one of your agents here at Glamour.” Gene frowned.“I wonder if our colleague who interrogated Mauro without subtlety had anything to do with this.” Mark snapped a finger, cracking his knuckles. “We haven’t had any more contact with him, right?”“No, I haven’t heard anything else. What about the guys in gray?”“They are still monitoring him from the hotel room. He’s staying at the Rocha Hotel here.”As Mark said this, his cell phone rang. It was Vargas’s number, and Mark promptly answered, “Vargas, speak.”“Lord Ferro, you won’t believe it.” Vargas seemed very surprised. “That fellow my guys have been following...”“Yes?” Mark’s gaze hardened.

  • Chapter 715 A Controversial Second Marriage

    Gilson’s eyes popped out of their sockets, like something from a cartoon. He didn’t have the heart attack Katrina feared, but the explosion of anger left him shaken all the same.Gasping, he complained, “What’s the meaning of this foolishness, this indecency?”Claudia held Gilson by the arms, fearing the worst. “My husband, please, control yourself! You just came out of a complicated situation...”“While I was recovering, my daughter was sleeping with the lawyer!” Gilson pointed a finger at Patricio. “Listen here, young man: just because you’re the family lawyer doesn’t mean you should try to become part of the family too!”“I did not coldly plan to become part of the family, Mr. Vasconcelos,” Patricio replied coldly.“How do I know you’re not giving me your lawyer’s blarney?” Gilson asked disdainfully.“You have my word that my relationship with your daughter arose spontaneously and naturally.” Patricio maintained a respectful posture, not wanting to be aggressive.After all, he need
