Celia tried to take the glass from Karl’s hand.

“Hey, don’t be annoying! I’m here to clear my head.” Karl pulled the glass away from her.

“I’m wondering if you’re drinking too fast.” Celia expressed genuine concern.

“Don’t worry. You can keep having fun out there.” Karl shrugged.

“I didn’t just come here to have fun for selfish reasons,” Celia explained, smiling slightly. “I’m celebrating Briana’s pregnancy!”

Karl finished his drink and gestured for the bartender to bring another shot.

“Really? Why didn’t Luana tell me?”

Celia smiled mischievously.

“I don’t think she knows yet,” She said. “When Briana started feeling the first signs, I was the one with her.”

“I see. You acted like a true friend,” Karl grumbled bitterly. “Meanwhile, my girlfriend – the one who’s supposed to be Briana’s best friend – can’t stop talking about you.”

Celia pretended not to want to create conflict. “I think, at this moment, Luana is being informed. And when you go back to the apartment, you two will have an

    “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

  • Chapter 714 Mark Felt in Danger

    Briana also held her breath, astonished to learn of such a story. Mark, with his back to everyone, quickly regained his composure.But Luana saw Mark flinch. “What’s wrong, Mark? What do you think of this story?”Karl answered before Mark, “I think it’s a fantastic idea! After Lord Ferro retired, no one knew about him. He could be walking around the kingdom of Aurelia like a common citizen and we wouldn’t even know!”Mark took a deep breath and remained Zen, but his mind was a whirlwind of emotions.Good thing he had ordered well before marrying Celia that his likeness be removed from the internet!At most, Mary Ellen would only find a few official photos of him, which wouldn’t say much.In fact, Parliament itself was involved in this issue, as a way to fulfill the protocol regarding his sabbatical year.If someone connected Mark as Lord Ferro while Anthony Curtis and Lawrence Sodré were still around, the consequences would be disastrous!Efraim was oblivious to all this and was not i
