Chapter 1104 Maternal Expectations
Hélio wrapped his arm around Vanda as if to protect her from Karl’s dangerous words.“Karl, you’ll have to excuse us, but we haven’t even brushed our teeth yet. We’re starving, and we have things to do,” Hélio broke the uncomfortable silence.“Our children are still asleep,” Vanda added.“Are you going to tell Patty over breakfast that she’ll be warmly welcomed by my family?” Karl smiled, hopeful.Vanda and Hélio didn’t smile back.“No. We’re going to tell our daughter that she needs to be happy and move on with her life,” Hélio replied solemnly.“Great! Isn’t that what we want?” Karl rubbed his hands together as if everything had been arranged.“If our daughter doesn’t want Matt, we’ll have to accept it,” Vanda pointed out with bitterness. “The choice is hers, Karl.”“She’s already chosen Matt,” Karl insisted. “She’s probably waiting for the right moment to open her heart. When that happens, you guys should support her.”Hélio lost his temper. “Not only do you want to dictate what my
Chapter 1103 The Best for Our Children
Hélio and Vanda rolled their eyes in boredom as Karl went on again about how “Matthew and Patricia belong together,” repeating it endlessly.“Karl, you woke us up early to talk about THIS?” Hélio mocked.Karl stiffened his gaze and clenched his jaw.Vanda continued, also sarcastically, “We’ve already gotten over this fantasy.”“What fantasy?” Karl exploded. “It’s your responsibility to make sure your children have a decent future!”Hélio raised his eyebrows in a sarcastic posture. “Oh, so you mean we’ve failed in that department?”Karl retorted cruelly, “Let’s say that if it weren’t for my son Matt’s kindness, you’d still be living in a horrible, unfinished house in the worst part of Lion’s Den. Yes, you’ve failed!”Hélio dropped his ironic and petulant stance. Vanda also stopped finding the conversation funny.“I don’t believe this!” Hélio yelled. “We’re actually becoming enemies!”“That’s not true!” Karl raised his index finger. “I just want what’s best for my son. And that includes
Chapter 1102 She Receives Notifications
In the large living room of the Alvares family’s new house, Gustavo was talking to his sisters and Nathan.“Okay, Nathan, you convinced me. This house is cool, and it deserves our approval.”“That’s right, Gus!” Linda clapped.Gustavo turned to her. “I’m mainly doing this for you, sis. I know the Andrade family never cared, but it will be important for everyone to have you in a healthier environment.”“I remember when they wanted to dine in our rundown house, how horrible.” Bella pretended to shiver.“Well, problem solved.” Nathan clapped his hands. “Now, let’s wait for the furniture. Are you going to want anything from the old house?”“Just our personal belongings,” Linda decided. “The furniture from there won’t match this beautiful house.”“By coincidence, I was researching a store on their website; they have a lot of interesting stuff.” Nathan grabbed his phone and showed Bella and Linda the website.Gustavo leaned against the fireplace, admiring the stonework, and took out his pho
Chapter 1101 The New House
Monday.In a beautiful American-style house located in Green Coral, the Alvares family – at the moment, Gustavo, Linda, and Bella – were in awe in front of their new residence.It was everything they had never even dreamed of.Nathan, proud of making this a reality, laughed as he extended the keys to his older half-brother. “Heh, heh... I should take a picture of you guys! Come on, close those mouths and come in!”“Nate, this isn’t the house we saw the other day!” Bella exclaimed, surprised.“I know. The realtor suggested this one last minute, and I thought it was perfect. It has rooms for everyone,” Nathan explained.Some of the houses they had seen before only had two or three bedrooms, meaning someone – probably Gustavo – would be left out. Nathan made sure the entire family would have a decent home, at least until Linda married Walter.Gustavo finally took the keys and started walking. “Okay, let’s explore the new place!”“I’ll text Ernie with the new address,” Nathan promised, pu
Chapter 1100 Special Treatment
Happy Snack Bar, night. Gustavo was working behind the counter, still annoyed by Nathan’s closeness to his family. His suspicions wouldn’t leave his mind... “He’s only doing this because he’s got something on me. If I hadn’t lost my backpack...” Gustavo muttered. Elaine and Nayla entered, laughing among themselves. The joke must have been very funny. Seeing Nayla, Gustavo smiled broadly and approached her promptly. “Good evening, ma’am and miss! Thank you so much for choosing Happy Snack Bar!” “But what does that mean?” Elaine laughed even more. “We don’t deserve such a grand reception, Gustavo.” “Of course you do. After all, we’re not talking about Mrs. Sterling, the most powerful wife in Blue Cove?” Gustavo flattered Elaine but kept an eye on Nayla. Nayla noticed this and blushed, lowering her head. Elaine didn’t notice the tension and had her ego inflamed. “OK, you’re right. People should treat me with more respect. Thank you, Gustavo. We’ll sit at that table over there.”
Chapter 1099 The Question That Haunts Bella
Gustavo and Linda noticed Nathan's astonished expression and the holding of his breath after reading the message on his phone. “What happened, Nate?” Linda asked worriedly. “I received a message from Cindy Cardoso announcing that... my symbolic mother authorized my return to Urbano!” Nathan exclaimed excitedly. “Congratulations, Nate!” Linda didn’t waste time and hugged her half-brother. Gustavo, on the other hand, remained wary of how quickly Nathan was integrating into the Alvares family. “Now I’ll be able to help you guys more!” Nathan said, breaking the hug. However, his gaze meeting Gustavo’s turned into something challenging. ****** At Sterling Mansion, Karl entered Andreia’s room and found her packing. “Everything ready, huh, little sis?” “Everything’s ready.” Andreia sighed. “I talked to our parents.” Karl kissed her left cheek. “You can use the jet to go wherever you want.” “Karl, I already paid for the ticket.” Andreia wasn’t complaining. She was moved. “Request
