Wallace visits the Teodoro building. Vera and Teresa meet in the lobby with the radio playing “Sunday Morning” by No Doubt.“WALLY!” Vera drops the broom and hugs her... friend? Boyfriend? Ex-husband?Teresa smiles when she sees her future sister-in-law all joyful, “Ah, that’s love...”Vera breaks the hug, fearing that Wallace will be enraged by the scandalous gesture, but Wallace was smiling, “Looks like I've gained a fan.”“Oh, you modest one.” Vera laughs and smooths her hand over Wallace's chest, hard as marble, “If you pose in Maggiezine with your shirt off, the ladies go crazy. Wally, you're too hot, always remember that!”Wallace laughs, still feeling unworthy of so much female admiration, “Don't overdo it, Vera. Anyway, how was your day?”“I faced the devil in jail,” Vera responds firmly.The answer displeased Wallace, “Vera, why did you provoke Renan Vasconcelos? If he gets out of jail, he’ll go straight after you to get revenge!”“And you will allow it?” Vera asks sweetly.“

Kelvin decides to pop into the living room to cut the meaningless chatter off, “Hello, ladies! Did I hear the last sentence correctly?”Melissa gives a reserved laugh while Dora laughs more uproariously, “Oh, Kelvin, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to make you jealous.”Kelvin shakes his head, “It's not that, Dora. I just thought it was strange that you wanted to involve my few-months son in spicy matters.”Melissa tries to patch it up, “Honey, we were just wondering about our babies’ future. For example, Mary will work at Maggiezine, but will she be the editor-in-chief? I think so.”“I don't think Caroline will have a problem with that,” Kelvin responds seriously, sitting in the armchair like a king.“And as for Ignacio, we just wonder if he will inherit his father's good looks.” Melissa stares at Dora pleadingly.Dora got the message, “That's right, it was no big deal.”Kelvin smiles slightly, but he's pretty sure the ladies mentioned 'Josias', “My son came from the womb of the most beauti

Ivan approaches the cell where Renan is. The businessman is intrigued by Josias's proposal.“Even if he buys me my share of Vasconcelos Fabrics, what good is the money if I'm in jail?”“It shall serve to pay your bail,” Ivan responds with sarcasm.“Sergeant!” Ivan is astonished, “I want to take advantage of this and ban Josias Rocha from entering. He is not my friend or family to be visiting.”Ivan smirks, “Yeah, I know... I was also surprised by the presence of someone who claims to have no connection with you.”Ivan tries one more time, “Mr. Vasconcelos, are you sure that—”Renan vomits violently, “How many times do I have to repeat it? Yes, Josias Rocha killed loan shark José Augusto Rios, but somehow, he came out as the hero of the story! I thought taking the law into one's own hands was wrong.”Ivan holds the bars and, with a frown, digs deeper, “And how are you so sure, Mr. Vasconcelos? You seem to have personal knowledge of the subject. Was the moneylender, by any chance, your

At Rocha Constructions, Tiago is working at his desk, looking over the company's finances. Around him, two assistants help him with planning and detecting unnecessary expenses.His desk phone rings and he answers it, “Hello?”On the other side, a desperate Amoreira yells, “Hello, Mr. Bento? This is Detective Amoreira.”“Hello, Amoreira. What tone of despair is that?”“I have every reason in the world to be desperate.” Amoreira says in one breath, “They freed Renan Vasconcelos again!”“What did you say?” Tiago rises as if propelled by springs, “Who ordered this wretch to be freed from his sins?”“Ironically, it was the money that Josias Rocha used to pay for Vasconcelos Fabrics,” Amoreira reports as if he still didn’t believe in the terrible coincidence.“Don't the parents know they have a child who is a pimp and promoter of violation?” Tiago asks sourly.“I think they know, but they defend their son all the same.” Amoreira shakes his head, “That's the only explanation that comes to mi

The next day, Josias met with Tiago and Octavio at his mansion. Katherine is serving breakfast instead of letting the maid do it.Josias raises an eyebrow, “Honey, don't think you'll be able to join the conversation.”“I don't think, I will.” Katherine sets the tray of bread and cheese and ham in front of him. J.J. starts laughing.“The matter is too dangerous for you.” Josias starts again. Yesterday he sweated to keep Katherine out of the presidential office.The maid who was supposed to serve breakfast appeared in the dining room, “Mr. Rocha, the gentlemen Bento and Motta appeared.”“Ask them to have coffee with us.” Josias gestures with a warm smile.But when the maid left, he returned to the serious face, “Honey, please, stay out of this matter.”Katherine, on the contrary, pulls up a chair and sits down, “I already know that you had the loan shark killed and I am on your side.”“I didn't kill the bastard!” Josias pummels the table, scaring J.J.“Are you going to behave like that
