Chapter 1280 I Have Always Survived
“That’s not the point!” Linda asserted, defending herself. “I always loved Walt for who he is, not for the money or the high-class family he belongs to. I’ve already had the best luck of all being accepted by them. Should I force them to accept a drug-dealing brother?”“That is still being discussed,” Bella said, crossing her arms.“Face it once and for all, Bella,” Linda said, shaking her head. “And please, accept Jacque’s invitation, before they ban you from showing up at my wedding too.”Bella held her breath, her jaw dropping. Linda withdrew from Jorge’s office.******In Elaine’s office, she answered Matthew’s question about paternity with only a smile.Matthew narrowed his eyes, wondering who he had been married to all this time.“How long have you been meeting with Nathan?”“Since after you went to Praia Grande,” Elaine replied, trying to be respectful. “Since then, we have always fought and argued, and I couldn’t take it anymore. Your parents and grandparents didn’t contribute
Chapter 1279 Telling the Whole Conversation
At Urbano Magazine, Cindy tried to make sure Nathan was covering all his bases.“Nathan, I still need to ask one little thing. Suppose Matt accepts the possibility that Elaine’s baby isn’t his. You are aware that he is going to demand a DNA test when the baby is born, right?”“Yes, correct.” Nathan nodded confidently.“And if the test concludes that the baby really is Matthew’s?” Cindy felt a lump in her throat. “Not only would Matthew be furious: he would definitely snatch the baby from Elaine’s hands, and she would never hear from him again, of that you can be sure!”“If that turns out to be true, then I will accept the truth and convince Elaine to have our own children,” Nathan replied naturally.Cindy gave a forced smile. “That is the difference. You are willing to accept reality and move on with your life. Elaine, unfortunately, isn’t one of those people.”“Elaine won’t cause trouble over this. Not when she has another man supporting her,” Nathan said confidently.“But this man w
Chapter 1278 I Just Want to Raise My Son!
Bella was horrified by the news, misinterpreting it. She stood up abruptly from the desk.“What did you say?” She shouted.Linda gestured hurriedly. “Shhh! It’s not what you’re thinking at all!”Bella took a deep breath, putting her hands on her hips. “Girl, you gave me a huge scare, huh? What is actually happening?”“Calm down and I’ll explain.” Linda smiled mischievously. “I was talking to Walt. He decided it would be better for me to leave the receptionist job and become his personal assistant.”Bella calmed down, smiling. “Oh, now that is good news!”“With this, they decided not to fire Dr. de Paula. But for that to happen, me working as Walt’s assistant would make me protected from future attacks, of all kinds.”Bella nodded. “That’s right. People think you’re easy to bully just because you’re a receptionist. As the personal assistant to the heir of the Andrade Clinic, you’ll have more power.”Linda smiled with ambition. “That’s the point. I’ll have power; no one will bother me.
Chapter 1277 Paternity Dispute
“Phew, I hope she wasn’t upset,” Emmanuelle wished fervently.“Thanks, Mom, for not going into details,” Jacqueline commented, worried. “Actually, I was quite firm with Bella.”“Well, at least Linda heard us give our opinion on Gustavo’s guilt.” Emmanuelle crossed her arms. “There is no way that bald guy was innocent.”“Mom, were you saying that Bella might be an accomplice because of the partying and rebellious life she led?”“That could be a clue as to why she defends her drug-dealing brother so much,” Emmanuelle smiled wickedly.******Matthew frowned and narrowed his eyes, wondering if he had heard correctly.“What... What did you say, Elaine?”“You’re still young; you have perfect hearing,” Elaine mocked without consideration. “That is exactly what you heard. The baby isn’t yours. Your father would have loved to hear that, huh?”Matthew clenched his fists, anger coursing through his body. “Who is the father?”“HA! That I will NEVER tell you!” Elaine wagged her index finger. “Do y
Chapter 1276 Elaine Tells Matthew
Matthew showed up at Golden Letters, finding Elaine trying to get comfortable in her chair to work. As her belly grew, this was becoming more difficult. She had even brought a pillow from Nathan’s apartment.She stopped what she was doing when she saw Matthew approaching.“I was going to ask what you were doing here, but that’s ridiculous. You own this company,” Elaine joked, trying to break the ice.Matthew looked at her with pity. “For a moment, you looked like the kind and charismatic Elaine I fell in love with; the Elaine I met who helped me when I was a mere intern.”Elaine pursed her lips, not very comfortable remembering the past. “Those were different times.”“Yes, times when Nathan Gouveia stalked and harassed you, nearly violating you right here at Golden Letters, even when you were dating that Italian businessman,” Matthew frowned.“Matt, let’s not go down that road,” Elaine gestured negatively. “Nathan has changed; he became humble and acknowledged his mistakes. What about
Chapter 1275 Is Bella Going to the Wedding?
“No, I don’t really believe in coincidences in this case.” Nathan shook his head. “This was definitely commissioned by someone.”Elaine smiled maliciously. “I believe it was Patricia herself. She must have mentioned something to Karl. Karl has always been an enthusiast of Matthew kicking me to the curb and going back to Patricia.”Nathan raised a hypothesis. “Don’t you think it could be Matthew who plotted the whole plan? After all, he ‘suddenly’ appeared in Praia Grande on the same weekend that Ronaldo, Patricia, Jackson, and Cindy were there for that photoshoot, remember?”Elaine shook her head vehemently. “Matt, back then, was firm about remaining my husband even with Karl already planting seeds of doubt in his ears.”“Don’t trust him blindly, honey.” Nathan furrowed his brow.“It’s not about blind trust,” Elaine asserted. “Matt had several opportunities to divorce me openly, without schemes, but he didn’t want to. Why would he engineer something so diabolical, setting up his own c
