2024-01-23 21:00:41In order not to interrupt Jonah in the production of his next best-seller, Sheila decided to visit Borges House.
She and Vanda were talking animatedly in the kitchen.
“Vanda, when are you going to hire servants?” Sheila asked as she watched Vanda meekly placing the dishes in the dishwasher. “You can’t continue in this situation.”
“Sheila, our family doesn’t have money like you.” Vanda admits with her head down, “We only have Jackson as a celebrity for now, but as he states, that alone won’t last. That’s why he started studying English. He is now in his room.”
“O really?” Sheila narrowed her gaze. “Is he studying online?”
“Yes, but it’s not that he’s doing it in a disorganized or methodless way.” Vanda explains, “He bought a course and is being accompanied by teachers. It’s basically an online school, with the differenc

Chapter 1346 A Chosen Side
At the Andrade Clinic, Emmanuelle was relentlessly pressuring her son to fire Linda, her voice full of maternal manipulation.“Mom, you can’t do this to me,” Walter said with bitterness. “I thought you loved me!”“I do love you,” Emmanuelle replied smoothly. “And I want what is best for you.”“By firing Linda?”Emmanuelle smoothed her skirt, her expression the picture of innocence. “I never said that, Walter. You did.”Linda watched the trap snap shut. The realization hit her like a physical blow.“ENOUGH!” The word tore from her throat. “You just said Dr. de Paula shouldn’t be the one fired! Who’s left in the equation, then?”Emmanuelle turned slowly to face Linda, fixing her with a haughty, disdainful glare she usually reserved for the help.“Let me make something very clear, Miss Alvares,” she sneered. “Until you fix this massive problem, you are banned from our estate. Your little sister invaded my home after lunch and was properly shooed away like a stray mutt.”Linda held her br
Chapter 1345 I Need a Barbecue Knife
Jacqueline chatted with Zachary in his suite, which was now hers as well. His walk-in closet had been expanded and sectioned off to accommodate Jacqueline’s clothes and accessories.It was in this very spot that she was venting to her husband.“I can’t agree with this, honey. Never!” Jacqueline exclaimed.“Who would have thought, huh?” Zachary replied.“My parents, caving to pressure that probably hasn’t even happened yet, choosing to believe Linda will harm my brother! No, I have to stand on the side of love and justice!”As she spoke, Jacqueline was hanging up very expensive dresses with palpable anger, shoving the hangers onto the rack. Zachary raised an eyebrow.“Aren’t those dresses expensive?” he asked doubtfully.“Yes, they are,” Jacqueline replied, distracted by her fury. “So, honey, what do I do?”Zachary chuckled. “I think you’ve already done enough: telling your father you bounced on me all week in the Maldives.”Remembering that detail, Jacqueline went “PFFFT” and burst ou
Chapter 1344 Who Did This to You?
Ronaldo returned to his office, still disgruntled by the missed opportunity to fire Ernesto.“Damn it, Grandpa! The perfect chance to get rid of certain people.”He stood by the window, watching the port activity.“I always suspected that bastard. And my father suspected that Gustavo was hitting on Patty. But because of my father’s extreme caution, he injured Ernesto, the man ended up as the victim, and my father was demoralized, accused of loving Patty in secret. Ugh! I will avenge my father and mother, tearing apart the Alvares family!”His cell phone rang.Ronaldo went to the desk to check the device. He didn’t recognize the number calling him.“Hello?”On the other end, Bella was in the Silva Oil Company parking lot with another goal in mind.“Mr. Silva? This is Bella Alvares.”“I don’t know if I can have dealings with you.” Ronaldo narrowed his eyes.“Don’t be a clown!” Bella laughed. “I’m calling you on behalf of my boyfriend, Jorge, for you to appear on our podcast tomorrow.”“
Chapter 1343 Is It Worth Keeping Him?
Ronaldo entered Leonardo’s office, finding his grandfather concentrated on some spreadsheets.He felt his grandson’s presence and lifted his head. “What is it, my boy?”“Grandpa, I want to tell you something. Maybe we need to make a decision afterwards,” Ronaldo announced solemnly.Leonardo felt that the matter was serious and straightened up. “Wow, my boy is acting like a CEO.”“More like COO; I don’t want to overstep my father’s authority,” Ronaldo replied humbly. “As for what has been happening with the Alvares family, it remains for us to decide if it is still worth keeping Ernesto Alvares on as our employee.”Leonardo’s eyes widened at this information.“My grandson...” Leonardo scratched his temple. “Ernesto Alvares is a valuable employee to us.”“Is he? Is it worth keeping an employee after so much controversy involving his son?” Ronaldo leaned against the desk.“I don’t think it’s fair for us to cast doubt on the man’s character because of his son.” Leonardo shook his head.“H
Chapter 1342 A Dose of Reality
The conversation remained tense in Ronaldo’s office.Ernesto stepped back a few inches at the younger man’s question. “No, no one else is involved in drug trafficking.”Ronaldo smiled mockingly. “Ah, so you admit that Gustavo was nothing more than a damn drug dealer?”“No father or mother likes to trumpet this proudly in public!” Ernesto retorted, furious. “So much so that my dear wife is hiding at my in-laws’ house!”“There is no reason for her to hide.” Ronaldo frowned. “Didn’t anyone tell you that this would make things more suspicious?”Ernesto had never thought of it from that angle. He didn’t even reply.Ronaldo continued, “As for my mother, Mr. Alvares, you must understand I want justice for her. You can be sure: if she were in better health, she would be here causing a huge scene.”“Even with the public realizing she contacted a drug dealer?” Ernesto asked, stupefied by the logic (or lack thereof).“She has no reason to be modest or evasive. What’s done is done.” Ronaldo smile
Chapter 1341 Not Your Little Girl Anymore
Ronaldo worked diligently in his office at the Silva Oil Company, the day passing outside and the noise of port activity echoing through the open windows.He could even smell the crude oil being transported.While he typed on the computer, Ernesto appeared, respectful yet determined.He knocked lightly on the open door. Ronaldo looked away from the monitor to the team leader.“Mr. Silva?” Ernesto broke the silence.“Mr. Alvares. Do you need to speak with me?” Ronaldo straightened up.“If it’s not too much trouble.” Ernesto took two steps forward.“No, you may come in.” Ronaldo gestured, his expression serious.Ernesto took a deep breath and approached the desk. His boots left faint footprints on the immaculate floor.“How can I help you, Mr. Alvares?” Ronaldo asked.Ernesto smiled ironically. “Don’t you think you’ve done enough, Mr. Silva?”Ronaldo was startled. “I don’t understand the reason for your—”“Mr. Silva, with all due respect.” Ernesto raised his right hand, his tone firm. “
