Chapter 1098 Linda Needs to Fit In
After cleaning the “mustache” of frosting that had formed on Jackson’s upper lip, Cindy continued the conversation, “And did you talk to Elaine, demanding that she stop the harassment?”“Of course. I didn’t go to Golden Letters to see my mom be mistreated. She has brought them money; she deserves all the respect,” Jackson confirmed in a somber tone. “And there was another strange thing.”“What?” Cindy went into journalist mode.“The receptionist’s older brother, the one who overdosed at Silva Oil Company...” Jackson spoke more quietly, suspiciously. “He immediately jumped to Elaine’s defense, asking me to talk out of the public ear. But when I ended the conversation and left her office, the same security guard was already going to meet her, looking at me with anger!”Cindy smiled maliciously, already weaving a theory in her mind. “Honey, are you suggesting that the security guard has feelings for Elaine?”“I hope I’m wrong. Matthew doesn’t deserve to be cheated on by a former drug use
Chapter 1097 An Extension of Concern
“Thank you, Kirk.” Elaine nodded. “You don’t need to get involved in this, but I appreciate your concern.”“Nayla told me her opinion.” Kirk felt awkward, like he shouldn’t be speaking, but his heart was pushing him. “You know, the way they treat you in that mansion is concerning.”Elaine took the moment to vent, “I know Matt needed me as a wife to appease the conglomerate’s board members. But over time, we built a beautiful love! It’s impossible that Matt doesn’t feel anything for me! But his father...” She sighed.“He makes everything seem like a mere business transaction, a cold agreement made in a lawyer’s office,” Kirk completed the thought, sounding like an expert on the subject.“Exactly!” Elaine’s eyes widened. “I’m surprised to see how much you understand me, Kirk. You must be a great help and comfort to Nayla.”“I try to be.” Kirk smiled sheepishly. “I’d better get back to my job. Should I allow Jackson Borges to bother you next time?”Elaine smiled nervously, unsure how to
Chapter 1096 Family Is What Matters
Nathan appeared at the Alvares Family House. Gustavo was sprawled on the sofa, watching TV. Outside, Nathan found the living room window open and heard the sound of a Western movie, one of those recorded directly for TV. Instead of knocking on the door, Nathan approached the window and stuck his head in, seeing his older half-brother amused and laughing at a horseback chase scene. “Hey, big brother!” “OW! What does that mean?” Gustavo jumped on the sofa, looking startled at the window. Nathan was also taken aback. Gustavo seemed way too tense. From Nathan’s view, Gustavo was behind the sofa, only seeing him shirtless, leaning on one arm. “I just came to visit you guys. I have good news,” Nathan replied with a suspicious look. “Wait at the door, I’ll open it.” Gustavo grabbed the remote and turned off the TV. Nathan didn’t understand but went to the door. He wasn’t going to climb through the window, right? However, Nathan sensed Gustavo was taking too long... Then he underst
Chapter 1095 Andreia’s Act of Kindness
“Let me see if I understood.” Jackson rubbed the bridge of his nose. “The photographer showed up at the right place, at the right time, took a photo, and instead of sending it to all the newspapers and gossip columns, he sent it to Matt?” “That’s what he said, but Matt scheduled a meeting with him today to confront him.” Elaine sat at the desk. “Oh, his name is João Pedro de Paula, a relative of the doctor treating that lunatic Ron.” Jackson looked at Elaine with hostility. Even though he no longer liked Ronaldo, he didn’t dare mock his psychiatric condition. “I’m going to check this with Matt,” he declared. “Meanwhile, stay away from my mother. You’re no longer her agent, but even if you were, only talk to her about books, understood?” “Understood, though I don’t believe you have anything to say or that you can stop me from questioning your treacherous sister.” Elaine dropped the mask of indifference, glaring at Jackson with equal disdain. Jackson didn’t bother anymore and left,
Chapter 1094 Bella and Jorge Arrange a Date
After Bella released the hug, she commented gracefully, “Okay, now the assistant here needs to work.” “And I need to handle some matters. Excuse me. Mr. Nunes, once again, thank you very much for the space.” Nathan extended his hand to Jorge. “You’re welcome, buddy.” Jorge and Nathan shook hands. Nathan left, closing the door. Jorge took the opportunity to talk with Bella. “So... now the hugs are purely fraternal, huh?” Bella wasn’t sure whether to smile or feel offended. “Look, Jorge, I’d appreciate it if you didn’t bring that up. Remember, it was painful to find out I slept with my half-brother without knowing,” Bella finally replied. Jorge gesticulated. “Alright, I went too far. I’m glad you’re not going to the other extreme: avoiding any contact with Nathan.” Bella shook her head. “No, I have a strong mind. He needs someone right now, and I saw he’s more comfortable with me. If I turn my back on him, I think he’d freak out.” Jorge held Bella’s hands. “Okay. What are you g
Chapter 1093 No Scandals in the Lobby
Vanda entered the Golden Letters building wearing sunglasses and a reserved posture. If she used to be outgoing, now she was trying to be discreet, aware that the public is eager for rumors and gossip. However, as she walked through the lobby, Nayla and Kirk were like mischievous siblings, curious and ready to block Vanda’s path if necessary. “Good morning,” She greeted them cautiously. “Is that all you have to say to us, ‘good morning’?” Nayla asked with slight indignation. Vanda took off her sunglasses, not understanding the question. “Why are you bothered by my greeting?” “We expected you to vent to us,” Kirk replied, genuinely concerned. Vanda softened her annoyed expression. “I am fine. The problem is my daughter. She loved her fiancé, you understand?” “Cindy Cardoso’s story didn’t leave much room for speculation.” Nayla didn’t comment; she was complaining. “And that’s exactly what Cindy wanted. Besides, we don’t think it’s right to uncover those ignominious details.” Van
