Chapter 1292 Don't Crush My Family
"I believe so." Ernesto smiled a little. "But he said he wouldn't accept a cent from my pocket.""Dad, I think Nathan is right in that regard." Bella grabbed a cloth to dry some silverware. "If the police were to find out, wouldn't Nathan be implicated too?""Ah, you need to know this!" Ernesto grimaced. "Matthew Sterling has been following the entire investigation. Nate fears he might discover my connection."Bella tensed up. "Just like he discovered that Nate and I were siblings and still told me to get close to him.""I don't like this. Now that Nathan has claimed to be the father of Miss Prates's baby, Mr. Sterling could use all of this as an excuse to destroy us.""Don't let that happen, Dad!" Bella cried out in despair. "We have to do something to stop people like Matthew Sterling!"Ernesto was of the same opinion. He just didn't know how.******Jackson appeared in Cindy's office. She was having a snack, eating some swee
Chapter 1291 The Alcohol Affected My Judgment, Not My Vision
Jackson was surprised to learn that Matthew wasted no time firing Elaine.Nayla had a slight suspicion that Jackson felt pity, smiling ever so slightly.'If Elaine knows this, she'll get her hopes up,' Nayla thought.Jackson looked at Alessandra. "That being the case, Miss Fraga, you had better leave and contact someone else. Perhaps Augusto or even my future brother-in-law."Alessandra smiled mockingly. "Where are my manners! I'm forgetting to congratulate you!""Miss Fraga, you'd better not get involved in this matter." Jackson's gaze hardened. "You wouldn't be offering congratulations right now if you hadn't messed around with my sister's previous fiancé.""PFFFT!" Nayla covered her mouth with both hands.Alessandra was irritated by the audience. "Is this how you work at this company?""Miss Fraga, you are blocking the counter. Excuse me." Nayla straightened up.Alessandra rolled her eyes and stepped a
Chapter 1290 They Will Regret Being Born
"Mr. Borges, hello!" Alessandra greeted, a bit too obviously."Hello, Miss Fraga. It’s good to see you again, I think." Jackson looked at the model with suspicion."Yes, it really is good to see you." Alessandra suggestively ran her hand over Jackson's chest. "You’re still firm and hot since our last campaign. How about we participate in another one, huh?""Haven't people gotten tired of seeing me naked?" Jackson narrowed his eyes, asking icily.Alessandra felt herself ovulating at the question. Nayla bit her lower lip."No, the ladies will never get tired of seeing you au naturel!" Alessandra exclaimed, excited like a teenager in front of a K-Pop idol. "Let's go to the studios and make this happen.""You aren't authorized to enter!" Nayla woke from her immoral daydreams, returning to her receptionist pose. "Mr. Borges, I'm trying to tell Miss Fraga that Mrs. Sterling no longer works here!"Jackson was surprised b
Chapter 1289 Officially Divorced
Siren Restaurant, noon.Matthew and Patricia met, sitting at a reserved table.Patricia observed her boyfriend's neutral expression as he placed the order with the waiter."Any problem, honey?" Patricia took his right hand."No, if you can look at it that way." Matthew frowned. "The divorce has been finalized. I am officially single again.""And that makes you sad, doesn't it?" Patricia tried to be understanding."Honey, you know I was never flippant regarding marriage." Matthew spoke sincerely, pouring his heart out to her. "I never wanted to give the impression that I was marrying Elaine just to secure my presidency of the conglomerate. Even though that was part of my situation, it was only a part. I loved Elaine Prates.""I believe you, honey," Patricia replied kindly. "You were never one to have flippant relationships.""Sometimes, I resent how my father puts things so coldly and impersonally." Matthew softened his face. "W
Chapter 1288 I Don't Want to Get Involved with Drugs
Ernesto and Nathan continued talking."What line do you want to draw, Nate?""Here's the thing." Nathan became serious. "It's true that I wanted to get back at Gustavo for all the insults he put me through. However, I want to make it very clear that I also don't agree with drug trafficking. As far as I'm concerned, I killed two birds with one stone.""I understand." Ernesto nodded."Do you really understand, Ernie?" Nathan scratched his chin. "Well then, that being said, I don't want to get involved with any of that. Since you confessed your involvement, I assume the financial help you wanted to provide me comes from drugs, correct?"Ernesto swallowed hard, seeing that his stepson had guessed correctly.Nathan shook his head in regret. "I'm sorry, Ernie, but I can't accept it. I don't want my business to have seed capital from drug money. When the police find out, I'll be dragged into the middle of it, plus Elaine, my unborn child... And Mat
Chapter 1287 Don't Gossip About Us
Nathan reacted with total disappointment upon discovering that Gustavo wasn't the only one involved in the illicit drug scheme."Damn it, Ernie!" he revolted. "If I had known... You never did me any harm. I didn't want to hurt you, but everything that's been happening is revolting!""Now do you understand what kind of situation you put me in?" Ernesto sighed. "Gus will never tell the police who was above him in the scheme, and I need to protect my son without turning myself in. Otherwise, it would be two of us in jail.""Bella knows too, right?" Nathan started putting the pieces together. "Yes, she knows. That's why she blindly defends Gus. Linda doesn't know about this, which is why she was easily convinced by the Andrades.""Linda knows nothing," Ernesto asserted. "She is my favorite daughter, the one I chose to keep out of all the rot in the world. Having her meet Walter Andrade was exactly what I wanted for her: a kind, rich guy who would take her out
