The commotion in the Rocha Event Hall continued.

Sandro, Nadir, James, and Christopher were anxious for Briana to come to her senses and sign the divorce papers.

"It can't be." Briana shook her head. "This document won't be valid if Mark doesn't sign it."

"We can claim abandonment, my granddaughter." Althea tried to convince her, daring to smile.

"No, there's a period for that. Mark only disappeared for a day. No notary office will accept these conditions for a divorce." Briana frowned.

Do they think she's an idiot?

Althea insisted, "Briana, with the power of the Vasconcelos family, we can make it happen. We will find any loophole in the law, any chance we can to cancel this damned marriage that has only brought you losses."

"I'm doing just fine with Mark, thank God!" Briana retorted.

Althea was losing her patience. "Don't talk like that! Don't be deluded, pay attention to your reality! Living in an apartment with your parents, in a building below your status, enduring a mere

    Mark closed the door of his office quietly behind him, the click of the latch muffled by the soft hum of the building.Karl had just left, and now the room was still, private enough for what he intended to do.He pulled out his phone, a flicker of tension in his eyes as he checked the new message.When he saw the sender, his pupils tightened, a surge of disbelief coursing through him. Without hesitation, he selected the number and began to type.In the Operations Center that morning, Linda Mattes was leaning over the shoulder of one of her subordinates, a photograph pinched between her fingers.“You’re sure it’s him?” she asked, her voice level but edged with suspicion.The young man nodded, visibly nervous.Before she could say more, her phone rang. She didn’t need to check the caller ID. She already knew who it was.She answered swiftly. “Hello, Lord Ferro.”Meanwhile, in his office at Glamour, Mark sat down at his desk, posture firm, expression unreadable.“I received your message,

  • Chapter 880 Too Happy About the Breakup

    The noise of the printer filled Sandro’s office as Katrina stepped inside, finding her aunt seated at his desk, tapping briskly at the computer keys.“Where’s Uncle Sandro?” Katrina asked.Nadir didn’t look up. “Home, asleep. He had a rough night.”Katrina tilted her head, her tone burning with mockery. “Couldn’t sleep because of your heat cycle?”The typing stopped dead. Nadir shot her niece a glare sharp enough to cut glass.“You have no right to judge me,” she snapped. “At least I was married when I got pregnant with your cousin.”Katrina’s eyes gleamed with malice. “At least Uncle Sandro wasn’t some slum rat.”The printer clicked to a stop. Nadir rolled her eyes and returned to the computer, making a few quick clicks before standing up.The printer started again, spitting out another batch of pages. She gathered the printed documents into a neat stack, smoothing them with meticulous care.“Since Sandro is home, I’m printing all the available information about ‘Live Your Life’,” sh

  • Chapter 879 The Graffiti on the Wall

    The Glamour parking lot.A small crowd of employees gathered around a wall freshly vandalized with red spray paint.Jake stood near Karl and Luana, his voice carrying the excitement of someone who had just shared something juicy. He knew the Carvalhos would savor any new humiliation of Celia.“I’ve decided I deserve a decent, exclusive woman,” Jake announced, his tone both proud and mocking. “A little longer with Celia, and I’d probably catch an STD from her!”Luana laughed with satisfaction. “That’s right, Jake. You finally learned to value yourself!”Karl shook his head. “I don’t know why it took you so long to wake up.”Jake eyed him with suspicion, unsure whether Karl’s disdain for Celia was genuine or exaggerated. But Karl changed the subject before Jake could respond.“Now, about our company…” Karl gestured toward the wall. “What do you make of this?”From their perspective, the words “Down with gratuitous violence” somewhat intimidated them.A few employees snapped pictures wit

    Gene was already at his desk when the call came through, his expression marked by curiosity and irritation.“Manager Ferro,” he began, “have you heard what happened here?”“I’m at the police station,” Mark replied evenly. “Something about my car.”“Ah, right… but something else happened. And it might explain the whole thing.” Gene’s tone shifted, his curiosity growing darker. “Someone vandalized the wall facing the parking lot. Slogans protesting ‘Times of Glory’.”Mark suppressed a smirk, careful not to let Ribeiro or Mary Ellen catch the amusement flickering in his eyes.“Really?” he asked, feigning surprise. “Any idea who could’ve done it?”“Looks like religious groups, conservatives, or those social media crusaders who think they’re saving the world,” Gene said, exasperated. “They forget we’re producing a fictional series, one that takes place in a time when human rights weren’t what they are today.”Mark chuckled softly. “And, of course, they picked my car because it’s the oldest

    Jake turned off the burner and lifted the pan, carrying it to the small table where his plate waited. As he moved, his eyes met Celia’s, though it was hard to tell whether he truly saw her or merely pretended to notice.“Celia!” he said with a careless grin. “You’ve been standing there all this time? You could’ve been a thief, for all I knew.”“Lucky you, then,” she replied bitterly.“How long have you been here?”“For ages!” she yelled. “I called you, you didn’t hear me?”Jake emptied the eggs onto his plate, setting the pan neatly into the spotless sink.Celia noticed the gleaming surfaces, the counters free of grime, and the scent of disinfectant.“You didn’t have to clean everything by yourself,” she muttered.“I needed to get used to it again,” he said flatly.“Used to what?” Her voice sharpened.“Cleaning up alone, of course. After all, there won’t be anyone else around to help anymore.” He paused, irony cutting through his tone. “Wait: there wasn’t anyone helping before, was th

  • Chapter 876 Ignoring Celia

    The next morning, Mark stood before the entrance to his garage, already dressed, his expression sharp and calculating. Regis and Everton followed close behind, analyzing what happened last night.From Mark’s perspective, nothing seemed disturbed. No cars missing, no sign of forced entry.Everything was precisely as it had been. He lifted his gaze toward the security camera mounted above and pointed at it with quiet authority.“Tell me we caught something,” he said, his tone measured but commanding.“We did, Lord Ferro,” Regis replied, his voice formal.“But I suppose you’re about to tell me we won’t know who it was,” Mark continued, his eyes narrowing.Regis hesitated. “Lord Ferro… it won’t be an easy task.”Everton, still tense, exhaled heavily. “If only we knew what this is about... who these people are, and why now?”Mark scanned the garage again, his lips pressing into a thin line. Silence filled the space.“I don’t believe that fool will try again,” he muttered finally. “All we c
