“Luana, you scared me,” Briana complained.

“That’s the point — scaring you so you won’t make the mistake of inviting someone I don’t want there!” Luana shot back aggressively.

Karl stepped to Luana’s side, showing support. “Please, Briana. Couldn’t you make just this one exception for us?”

Briana’s jaw dropped. “Wait... you too?”

Luana couldn’t help but pile on the drama. “What do you mean, my friend? Karl and I are on the same page, just as a husband and wife should be. What will people think if he’s fine with the woman I hate?”

Karl smiled, trying to defuse the tension. “Don’t worry, Briana. We just want to avoid trouble. It’s not like Celia is dying to attend anyway.”

Briana frowned. “It’s just that I’m inviting almost everyone from Glamour. It’ll look bad if Celia’s the only one not showing up, especially when we’re inviting even the janitors and the parking lot guys.”

“Invite them too — just not Celia. Even Mary Ellen can come.” Luana’s tone was firm, leaving no room for debate.

    Karl made a disgusted face. “I’m not Celia who lived to ‘help’ you with your lines! I’m a man!”“If you hadn’t told me, I would never know!” Jake taunted, unafraid of danger.“Listen here, buddy, we need to talk about the party—”“No, no, NO!” Jake gestured furiously, removing the medieval knight costume. “Celia and I have already talked about this. WE’RE NOT GOING to your ridiculous engagement party!”Karl couldn’t control his anger after hearing what he didn’t want and SLAMMED Jake’s dressing-table mirror.******“CELIA!” Mary Ellen exclaimed, indignantly. “You don’t have to yield to your enemy’s whims!”Celia sensed something was off, frowning. “Did you argue with her, Mary Ellen?”Mary Ellen glared at Luana.Luana smiled triumphantly, understanding what Celia was getting at.“Yes, I’m in the little coffee break room with her. She said Briana and Mark vetoed having the party at their house because they refused to veto you from the party.”Celia felt her heart warm at Mark and Brian

  • Chapter 744 Keep an Eye on Him

    Mark sinks back into the chair’s backrest, smiling but cautious. “And you’ll promise to calm your fiancée and leave all this to us?”“I promise!” Karl pledges with a Scout’s oath but with the wrong hand.“Fine. I suggest you go pacify her. And I’ll stay here, with respect to Colorful Kisses.”Karl nodded and left their office, closing the door.Mark sighed dramatically, feeling a mild headache.His cell rang and he barely had time to recover from the last clash. But when he saw Vargas’s name on the screen...“Hello, Vargas!”“Lord Ferro, my men saw the police show up at Rocha Hotel. They searched and found that Clayton Lemes had left.” Vargas’s frightened voice came through the line.It wasn’t in the nature of the grey-suited men to fail like that.Mark decided not to draw their attention this time. “Clayton Lemes should have already returned to the capital after speaking with me.”“That’s what I thought. That’s why Rubem went after him.” Vargas sought to redeem himself with that line

  • Chapter 743 Better Not to Go to the Party

    Luana had an indifferent look and tone as she replied, “What happened to those women was totally out of the ordinary, an absurdity, a cruelty. That’s why people were shocked and took pity on the victims. But, with Celia, it’s different.”Mary Ellen pointed a finger. “EVERYONE felt pity and compassion for Celia!”Luana smiled cruelly, indicating that she DIDN'T pity Celia.******In the studios of Colorful Kisses, Jake worried about the vengeful stance Celia took when speaking about Luana.He shook his head. “Celia, I ask you with all my heart to forget all this.”Celia widened her eyes, indignant. “Huh? Jake, after everything that damn thing did to me, how do you expect me to forget it all like that, out of the blue?”“I’m worried about you.” Jake frowned. “I don’t want Mark Ferro and Briana Ferro to lose the favor they have of you.”“Do you think they’ll defend that damned friend? I’m confident they’ll understand my side.” Celia smiled.Jake sighed. “Let’s do this: we’ll take care of

    “You aren’t sleeping with any of the actors from ‘Colorful Kisses’?” Jake asked with a sweet expression.“That too, but that’s not what I wanted to talk about.” Celia widened her smile. “Were you invited to Luana and Mr. Carvalho’s engagement party?”Jake wrinkled his nose at the “Mr. Carvalho,” not believing the forced formality imposed on Celia. “Yes, I got one. How about you, you too?”“Aww, my boyfriend is smart, huh?” Celia teased him affectionately.“I try to be.” Jake pretended humility.“That’s pretty awesome, isn’t it? Mark and Briana really root for my well-being. There’s no resentment from them that I was Mark’s first wife,” Briana commented admiringly.“So they were the ones who guaranteed your invitation?” Jake asked seriously.“As the event will be at their house, Briana surely stood her ground in my favor.” Celia also grew serious, somber. “If I’d known that I was the only Glamour girl not invited, I’d crash the party and make the biggest scene, Jake. I SWEAR!”Jake str

    Mark and Karl enter their office, the latter closing the door.“Mark, I wanted to first say that I—”“Can you tell me if ‘Colorful Kisses’ needs more external scenes?” Mark interrupted Karl on purpose, not wanting to talk about the fight between Luana and Briana.Karl swallowed dryly, surprised, before replying, “Uh... I think they’ll need... in the future. Luana is in charge, remember that.”“Well, maybe I can ask Celia if she knows anything about it.” Mark sits at the desk while baiting.Karl snapped at him. “Celia is very busy sleeping with the actors over there.”Mark sneered. “I thought Celia was merely assisting the actresses. Do you mean that...” He pretended to hold his breath in shock. “Celia crossed to the other side?”“That’s what happens when she’s slept with too many men!” Karl exploded, heading to his desk.Mark shook his head. “Ah, buddy...”“What’s the matter, WHAT’S THE MATTER?!” Karl was about to explode mentally.“You really need to keep a lid on that future wife of

  • Chapter 740 Permission to Record

    “You deduced correctly.” Ribeiro said, wanting to drop the case already. “OK, then I won’t bother with this any longer. I just hope Miss Diaz is more selective with the ‘contacts’ or ‘sources’ she uses for her stories. Something like that could ruin her career.”“Definitely! She learned her lesson. Thank you very much, Lieutenant Ribeiro!” Mark said goodbye to Ribeiro and ended the call.Briana waited for her husband to finish the conversation before questioning him sternly, “Why did you say that to the lieutenant?”Mark tucked the cellphone in his pocket and looked at his beloved. “Calm down, dear. There’s a reason for everything.”“Explain it. By the way, you should have said this first to me.” Briana crossed her arms.Mark ran his hand down her right shoulder. “I wanted to tell you, but I came upon that awful scene and lost my patience. I’m sorry.”Briana finally remembered what happened when Mark walked in. “Ah, yes. Sorry about that scene.”“You don’t have anything to worry about
