Melissa and Kelvin enter the Mountain Penthouse still stunned by what happened. Dora is vacuuming the carpet in the living room. The song “(You Drive Me) Crazy”, by Britney Spears, tries to compete with the noise of the vacuum cleaner.Melissa jokes, “Mom, no one is listening to the music with that set on.”Dora turns off the vacuum and the music becomes more audible, “Someone needs to clean up the mess. Hey, you look serious, Kelvin.”Kelvin stares at the stereo, “The song seems to have been tailor-made for crazy Katherine. She is driving us crazy with her absurd outbursts.”Dora sits on the sofa, curious, “Tell me about it! What did she do? Did you find her on the street?”Melissa shakes her head in disdain and sits down next to her mother, “She should rest, right? But she was walking down the street unsteadily, looking like she was going to have a nervous breakdown again.”Kelvin scratches his chin, “Actually, honey... we were not far from the police station. Could it be that she w

At Marçal Publishing, Bernardo, Maggie, and Gabriela content the final result of the latest issue of Maggiezine.Gabriela retorts ironically, “Well, now Josias Rocha can't accuse me of wanting to offend his wife again! I didn’t write the article!”Maggie and Bernardo burst out laughing.Bernardo's secretary appears, “Sir, a young man named Cláudio Guzman wants to speak with you.”The laughter ceases.“Tell him to come in.” Bernardo gestures aristocratically.Cláudio enters and faces Gabriela, “Hey, you were the one who almost died, right? Are you already healed?”“Nice to meet you, Mr. Guzman.” Gabriela greets him, “It seems that we already know each other, but that's because we became famous.”Bernardo takes the floor, “Mr. Guzman, how can we help you?”Claudio is straight to the point, “Mr. Marçal, do you intend to publish what I said to Vernon Queiroz?”Maggie, Bernardo, and Gabriela are embarrassed.******Melissa shows up at Rocha Mansion without really understanding what Josias

Josias enters Rocha Constructions and, upon entering his office, goes straight to the drinks table to help himself.Tiago and Alfred enter, “Master, we need to talk to you.”“Please, good news!” Josias exclaims and drinks the drink in one gulp.Alfred clears his throat, “Ehr... The customer service team was able to rescue a Europe Garden client.”Josias smiles, “OK, great! Now, what's the bad news?”Alfred continues, “One of the cement companies is wanting to terminate business relations with us... because of your wife's bad behavior.”Josias notices how nobody has the heart to mention Kate's name. It's just 'his wife'.Our hero faces Tiago.“Master, Mr. Guzman refuses to accept the money and a ticket to Boston. He said he was joking and doesn't settle for these tradeoffs so easily.”Josias's eyes widen, “But doesn't he know he won't be prosecuted anymore?”“Master, I think Mr. Guzman is so spiteful that he wants to see bloodshed,” Tiago responds fearfully.“Let's see if that settles

Claudio couldn't believe that Katherine was inside the apartment demanding that they talk as if they were still companions in some adventure.“Hey, who let you in?” Claudio exclaims.“Throw me out, then!” Katherine challenges him.Cláudio, fearing being accused again, controls his instincts, “Okay, just say what you want.”“I want you to get out of town.” Katherine declares through gritted teeth, “I want everyone to forget you exist.”Cláudio smiles mockingly, “Look, your husband sent Mr. Bento to pay me whatever I wanted to let the matter drop. I joked that I wanted to receive a million reais and a ticket to Boston, but they paid me the same day!”Katherine's eyes widen, “Why would my husband be willing to spend money on someone like you?”Claudio laughs, “Wow, I used to be so sexy and desirable, now I'm just 'somebody' to you?”Katherine swallows her sexual urge, “I didn't come to talk about this—““But ‘this’ is the only thing that keeps us tied together!” Claudio blusters, “You go

Josias enters the mansion and finds Hector pretending he is dusting the furniture in the foyer with a feather duster. It’s evident that the butler saw Josias arrive and wants to see the circus burn.“Where is my wife, Hector?”“Boss, madam is at the tennis club with friends. She must be here soon.”Josias looks at his wristwatch, “It's already night, they must no longer be playing. Pack some of my bags, Hector. I need to travel urgently.”“Immediately, sir.” Hector smiles slightly, imagining where the boss would go...Josias goes to one of the little tables, finds paper and pen left over, and writes a note in hasty handwriting.Afterward, he goes to the master suite to check what will be packed.Moments later, Katherine arrives in a white shirt and shorts, indicating that she was at the aforementioned club. She was drying her sweat on a washcloth and there was a racket in her left hand.“I’m here, people!”J.J. addresses her, “Good evening, Mommy. Can we have dinner?”“Has your father
