The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 62 An “Unexpected” Reunion
The next day, Sheila woke up in her suite with her cell phone ringing.She rubbed her eyes while grimacing. Did the alarm clock need to go off right now? She was dreaming that she was talking to Jonah...OOPS! Sheila suddenly blushed and looked both ways, fearing that Karl’s ghost would appear to accuse her of being an adulteress. But no one was around.Hanging up the phone, Sheila lamented, “Don’t be ridiculous, Sheila. Karl died, and now you need to take care of Matt. He’s all I have left.After washing her face and brushing her teeth, Sheila decided to go to her son’s suite.When she opened the door, however, Sheila was quite disappointed to find articles of women’s clothing scattered across the floor and towards the bed.Sheila followed the trail of clothes to the bed and discerned that two people were sleeping under the blankets.Determined to make a scandal and drag the call girl out of the mansion, Sheila takes two steps......And she is immediately stopped by Alice.“SCHI!

The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 63 Matthew Felt Jealous?
At the Sterling Mansion, Leonardo is surprised by Sheila insinuating a setup regarding Karl's death.“Dear daughter, what are you insinuating?”“I never believed Karl's accident was legitimate. I always had the suspicion within me that the tragedy was an arranged death. Men like Karl DON’T GET into car accidents!”“But why didn’t you come to us, or seek help from the police? What about the Sterlings? They would be the most interested in pursuing this matter and seeking justice!”Sheila purses her lips. “They never wanted to believe me. And I stopped having contact with you for fear of involving you. That’s why I hid in the favela and took Matt along.”Leonardo shakes his head, “It's a shame that the daughter of an oil businessman lived in an unhealthy place. You didn't do well, daughter. I'm sorry, but that's how I feel.”“I confess that I missed shopping and going to the beauty salon.” Sheila smiles vainly."And your son?" Leonardo is anxious.“He must have taken a shower to go to co
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 64 Grandfathers Meeting
In the afternoon, Matthew and Clayton enter one of the bank branches in Blue Cove.They get the password, go through the revolving door that has a metal detector, and go to the loan department.As they wait, Clayton whispers, “Last chance, buddy.”“It’s your last chance to keep quiet,” Matthew whispers back good-naturedly.“Maybe if I take out the loan in my name and you pay me later...” Clayton suggests.“No. I had the idea, I brought you here, so I’ll be the one to take responsibility. Allow me this gesture of friendship, Clay.” Matthew blinks.Clayton gives up. But the feeling that he is exploiting a young man with a golden heart never leaves his mind.Time passed, and Matthew’s password was called. He took all the paperwork and documentation from the Happy Snack kiosk and went to the service window.The place was basically a cubicle with seats, for the customer and bank employee to talk freely about the details of the loan.“Good afternoon.” Matthew introduced himself, “I have com
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 65 Alice Joins the Meddling Team
At the Happy Snack kiosk, David was unsure if he heard Patricia’s order correctly.“Patty, do you want me to voluntarily give money to Matthew Silva? Why on Earth would I do something like that?”“Because you want to walk in the path of good!” Patricia responds innocently, “Don’t tell me you’re just being nice to bed me.”David clears his throat unnecessarily, “CAHAM... That’s not it, Patty. I just don’t know if Matthew Silva will accept it. He is now working at Golden Letters.”“He’s not earning R$ 10,000.00 a month to have so many expenses.” Patricia frowns.Cindy walks past them and smiles mischievously. She sits at the far table and takes another photo on her cell phone. She has made a collection.But this time, Patricia notices that Cindy is around and approaches her. Cindy quickly opens Chat and pretends to be sending a text message.“Are you writing your next gossip?” Patricia scoffs.“I’m texting my boyfriend.” Cindy arrogantly retorts, “Hello, David.”“Hello, Cindy! How is th
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 66 Matthew Cares Too Much
Matthew and Abner work out in the exercise room. Abner walks on the electric treadmill with Evan nearby, monitoring the situation. Matthew, of course, is exercising his arms and biceps with weights and dumbbells. Sweat drips from his pores as he performs repetitions with concentration and dexterity.Abner looks at his grandson, “I miss my twenties...”“Were you a dumbbell lifter, Boss Sterling?”“What is this, Evan?” Abner jokes, “Search for photos of me with your lady boss Sterling. You can tell that this runs in the family. Karl was a gorilla and now my grandson is also a bull.”Matthew ends the series and takes a breath, “PHEW... Someone is talking about me.”“So, my grandson? Did you manage to convince your friend Mr. Saldanha to expand the business?” Abner also ends the walk.“Yes, Grandpa.” Matthew scratches the back of his head, “Although someone is determined to get in the way. Patty Borges.”“What does this girl have to do with all this?” Abner is helped by Evan off the tread
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 67 Cindy Manages to Live with Matt
At dinner time, Matthew was sitting next to Cindy while Sheila was on the other side of the table. Abner and Alice, as always, each had dinner at one end.Alice signaled with a look at Cindy.“Matt, I’ve been thinking.” Cindy begins to speak ‘naturally’, “I think it’s time for us to formalize our union.”Sheila chokes on the wine she was drinking, “Cough, cough, cough...”“Mom, are you okay?” Matthew worries.Cindy and Alice look at each other as if to say, ‘Is this idiot doing this on purpose?’Abner, being closer, hits Sheila hard on the back.“Ouch, ouch, I’ve already relieved myself! Thank you, father-in-law.” Sheila complains.“That’s what we’re here for.” Abner responds ironically.“Guys, let Cindy continue.” Alice asks with her eyes shining.“Actually, I already understand what she wants.” Matthew turns to his girlfriend, “And you’re right.”“Do you really want to marry Cindy Cardoso, Matt?” Sheila butts in rudely.“Of course I do, Mom. What’s the point of dating if we’re not g
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 68 Patricia Resigns
Inside Sterling University, Matthew tells Walter his plans for the future as they head to the dean’s office.“Is your grandfather here?” Walter asks.“That’s what we’re going to know now.” Matthew grins.“So when do we get the big announcement?” Walter gets excited.“I’m arranging the wedding date with Cindy. Now, she is at her house, gathering her things and informing her parents.”Walter raises his eyebrows, “Her parents will have to know the truth, right?”Matthew is startled. He can’t even affirm if Cindy told her parents she was dating, “Hmm... Yes, they’ll have to know the truth. But don’t worry, I’ll have a good press conference first.”Evan approaches the college students in the hallway. “Hello, young gentlemen!”“Evan? Did something happen?” Matthew is on alert.“Calm down, Young Matthew.” Evan chuckles, “You’re being called into a little meeting at the rectory.”“Oh, I was going to go over there and talk to—” Matthew notices other college students are around, “Talk to Mr. Me
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 69 Clayton Closes Deal
Matthew and Clayton enter the store, which was closed, but if it’s up to them, it will reopen for the beginning of the snack bar that the gentlemen intend to start.The owner happily comments to them, “You can take advantage of the fact that there is no competition nearby and turn this into a late-night snack bar. Many people, especially young people, like to stroll along the promenade at night. And there’s a nightclub not far from here.”Clayton nods eagerly, “Yeah, I thought about that too. We’ll have a night option, or we’ll open from 4:00 pm. What do you think, Matt?”“Whatever you want, partner.” Matthew chuckles in agreement, “But if it’s at night, be careful about hiring women. We don’t want to find out that our waitresses were robbed or raped because they stayed working until 11:00 pm.”“If the place stays open, there will be more people, and there will be less chance of someone being attacked.” The owner states, “The problem is when the avenue is completely deserted.”“Let’s

Chapter 969 Expectation
Matthew is in his office at the Sterling Empire headquarters, standing beside his desk, stacking boxes and carefully placing personal belongings inside. It was time to move out — a decision he believed necessary. He paused for a moment, gazing out at the urban skyline, and then sighed.“It was good while it lasted,” he murmured to himself.The door creaked open softly. Jackson appeared in the doorway, knocking lightly on the frame.“Matt?”Matthew turned around, surprised but pleased by the visit. “Jackson! Come in, take advantage of your last chance.”Jackson stepped inside. “I’m glad I caught you here.”“This’ll be the last time,” Matthew replied with a resigned smile.Jackson nodded, his tone understanding. “Cindy told me everything this morning. Patty and my parents know too.”Matthew raised an eyebrow. “And what do they think ab
Chapter 968 Release the Video!
Ironically, at that very moment, Karl stood in the Gouveia apartment’s living room, phone in hand, looming over a visibly nervous Vicente.“So, Vicente,” Karl said coldly, “what’s it going to be? I already have a video recorded by Cindy Cardoso. One text from me, and she’ll have it all over social media.”“No!” Vicente blurted. “That’ll backfire on you, you idiot!”“Maybe. But your audience will start to wonder. Just a little doubt is all it takes.”Vicente began to sweat, calculating the potential damage to his career.“Why are you doing this?” he asked, voice quivering.Karl’s eyes narrowed. “You really know how to play amnesiac when it suits you, huh? Listen to me: it doesn’t matter if the public doesn’t believe it, or if I don’t have police evidence. We know it was you. You tried to kill me, and when that
Chapter 967 I Need a Vacation
In the vestibule of the Borges House, the family had finished breakfast and were heading off to their respective activities. But Vanda wasn’t quite done with the conversation.“Hélio,” she called after her husband. “There’s something you need to be aware of.”“What is it, dear?” Hélio kept walking.“Do you really think you’re going to stop your daughter and Ronaldo from getting intimate?”Hélio froze mid-step. Jackson had already passed through the hallway and didn’t hear his mother’s pointed question.“Darling,” Hélio said, lowering his voice, “you know our daughter doesn’t want to have relations with Ron before the wedding.”Vanda chuckled. “I know. But when you start taking extreme measures like this... I worry it’ll have the opposite effect.”“Ron promised—”
Chapter 966 Matthew Has Another Theory
Back at the Borges House, breakfast resumed amidst a lingering undercurrent of unease. Vanda finally stopped coughing, setting down her mug.“Cough, cough... there! I’m not gonna die,” she declared with a shaky laugh.“You gave me quite a scare, darling,” Hélio said, concerned.“I’m fine, dear,” she assured him, then turned to Jackson. “What did you mean by that, Jackson?”“Mom, the only way I found to keep Patricia and Ronaldo from giving in to temptation,” he explained, “was to book two rooms: one for the girls, one for the guys.”“It’s fine, Mom,” Patricia added with a serene smile.Vanda shook her head, still amused. “Okay. If that’s what you all want.”“I know this goes against the books you read and write,” Patricia said warmly. “But trust me.”She glanced at her phone. “Oops! I need to hurry up for work.”“I’ll call you when you’re ready, Patty,” Cindy said.“How about we do our shopping after lunch?” Patricia suggested. “That way I can take care of some business at the company
Chapter 965 A Cloudy Day
The morning sun struggled to break through thick clouds as Wednesday dawned over Blue Cove. From above, the small coastal town lay under a silver-gray sky, the sea calm, the air heavy with anticipation.Inside the Sterling Mansion, in Matthew’s spacious suite, the chime of two phones went off simultaneously. Elaine and Matthew stirred, their bodies moving in sync as they slowly awakened. Elaine, facing away from her husband, stretched languidly before rolling over and resting her head on his firm, muscular chest.Her fingers traced the defined ridges of his abs as she whispered, “Good morning...”Matthew let out a sleepy breath, smiling as he pulled her closer with one arm. “What a beautiful way to wake up,” he murmured.“We’re both ‘unemployed’ now,” Elaine teased, her tone light and playful. “We can enjoy our free time together.”“That’s true,” he said, his eyes opening to meet hers.“So,” she asked, resting her chin on his chest, “what do you suggest?”“Second honeymoon,” he said w
Chapter 964 Hungry for the Moment of Reckoning
Cindy stood dumbfounded in the conference room at the Sterling Empire headquarters, still processing the explosive news she had just received."Matt... you don’t look happy," she observed carefully.Sheila jumped in to explain. "Cindy, you have to understand — things are about to change around here.""I get that!" Cindy said, still in disbelief. "Matt won’t be the company president anymore because his father — who was presumed dead — just came back to life. But... I can’t write about any of this without answers.""I understand the kind of answers you’re looking for," Matthew said somberly."Yes," Cindy pressed. "Why did your father live under a false identity for months? That’s the first thing readers will want to know.""He’ll explain everything, and you’ll write every word," Matthew assured her. "Even if it puts your current job at risk."Cindy exhaled, uncertain. "My job a

Elsewhere that morning, the Sterling Empire headquarters buzzed with murmurs and anticipation. In the grand conference room, Cindy arrived just in time to catch the shift in energy.Directors whispered among themselves, congratulating one another and exchanging theories. At the front, Sheila embraced Matthew, only to release him when she noticed Cindy in the doorway.“Cindy’s here,” Sheila announced softly.Matthew turned toward her. “Aunt Andreia must’ve sent her. Come in, Cindy.”She stepped forward, glancing around at the stirred assembly. “Matt, what’s going on? Why is everyone congratulating Lawrence Vieira?”Matthew stood tall and composed. “You’re about to write the most important article Urbano magazine has ever published.”Cindy paused, struck by the distance in his voice. “I’m listening.”“Lawrence Vieira doesn’t exist.

Chapter 962 Get Vicente Gouveia, Karl
Outside, in the parking lot of the Andrade Clinic that same morning, Linda snapped out of the sensual daze that Maurício had unknowingly sent her into. Her face flushed deep red as she turned to her father.“Sorry, Dad! I’m holding you up.”She got out and slammed the car door shut with a little too much force. Ernesto, still seated inside, leaned toward the passenger window.“I was just worried you were distracted. And no need to slam the door like that — it’s a new car, heh, heh!”“Bye!” Linda called out, somehow managing a smile even as she reeled from the moment.Ernesto started the engine and drove off, honking playfully at Maurício, who was now approaching Linda unnoticed by her.“Linda...?” he said softly.Startled, she turned sharply.“Calm down!” he added quickly. “I’m not a thief.”Her whole body trembl
Chapter 961 The President
In the Borges House, inside the dining room that morning, breakfast had just concluded. Vanda, ever gracious despite her usual fastidiousness, held herself back as the maid stepped in to clear the dishes and utensils.Hélio chuckled softly, amused. “You remembered you have staff for that, darling?”Vanda, clearly not used to sitting still, replied with mild reluctance, “I like to help.”Just then, the chime of a message notification broke the quiet. It came from Cindy’s phone.She glanced at the screen, and her breath caught in her throat.Jackson immediately noticed. “What is it, darling?”“There’s something happening at the Sterling Empire headquarters,” she said, urgency rising in her voice. “Andreia just sent me there — it's serious!”With that, Cindy rose abruptly from her chair, throwing kisses at Jackson before rushing out.Patricia look
