Josias takes the glass of water and drinks. Flávia delights in the way Josias drinks water, taking the glass with a serious and sexy look, slowly raising the glass to his mouth and his Adam's apple rising and falling as he swallows the sips.Flávia forgets that she wandered the entire hospital looking for him on behalf of Elza.Uélton approaches, thinking that Flávia is excited to see him. "Hello, maid! I didn't know you were missing me!"Flavia wakes up from the dream where she was naked in the bed of the master suite being possessed by Josias while Melissa was away at some charity event with the boring Elza and Elisa. "Huh? Oh, it's you, you annoying."Josias quenches his thirst and hands the plastic cup back. "Thank you, Flavia. Why did you keep the uniform?""Elisa made me," Flavia growls."You're funny. When you should wear the uniform, you wear a baby-doll; when you should wear regular clothes, you wear the

Wallace pretends he doesn't understand what's going on. He had invited Adrian to appear at the wedding just to tease Vera. And he got it; since Vera is paralyzed on the way out of the Church, allowing the rice to enter her open mouth.Adrian continues to face Vera with the greatest contempt in the universe. This scoundrel woman was scheduled to be married to his client and had decided to lose her virginity to another man!"Honey, shall we? The car is waiting for us." Wallace pulls Vera by the arm.The two of them had rented a car since Wallace didn't have his yet. Vera goes catatonic to her car and forgets to say goodbye to everyone.Harold approaches Isabel. "Do you understand what happened now?""She looks like she had a stroke stopped at the entrance." Isabel comments with a slightly mocking tone, "Her mouth dropped open and she swallowed a lot of raw rice."Wallace approaches, smiling, to say goodbye to his parents. "Mom, Dad, I'll call

The police showed up at the motel fifteen minutes later, the car screeching as it parked anyway. Violence against women is not an easy subject in Lagoon City.Even more so when it comes to a husband who thinks he has the right to force into his wife just because they are married!Vera is sitting on the couch in the motel lobby, drinking a glass of sugar water with trembling hands. The chambermaid is still beside her, terribly worried.The motel manager, a man in his forties, introduces himself to the deputy who appears to be in charge. "Officer, this way! This is the bride, she came in with her newlywed husband and we gave them the keys to room 54. They were happy and beaming. Suddenly we got a complaint from the couple in room 52, who heard screams and noises of aggression. When we went to check, the lady was already leaving the room, screaming for help and with a red face."The assistant police officer approaches Vera and checks the assault on her face.

Isabel puts the bag of bread on the table and pulls out a chair to sit on. Harold and Uélton remain standing."A cardiac arrest, to Seu Teodoro?" Harold questions in surprise."They say it's because of yesterday's wedding," Isabel explains."Has he been to the hospital yet?" Uélton asks."Yes, they found him early in the morning. Poor old man, he must have passed out at night, with no one around, or early in the morning." Isabel chooses a loaf of bread to butter.Harold joins his wife for breakfast. "I hope that's what it was. Otherwise, he can't survive if he suffered this stoppage last night."Uélton decides not to have breakfast now. "Excuse me, guys. I need to see if Josias is aware of this already!"Uélton leaves the house in a rush. Isabel and Harold have coffee in a funereal atmosphere.********************************************************Pamela and Beto are having breakfast happily

Josias decides not to bother Vera with the fact that she was supposed to be on her honeymoon, as he already knows that the occasion almost ended in another tragedy. So he just asks, "Are you okay, Vera?""I'm trying to be, Josias." She responds coldly.Beto looks at her, still indignant with what had happened.The cardiologist who attended to Teodoro appears with his head bowed, the funereal aura takes over the entire ICU.Vera already senses the worst and despairs. "For God's sake, doctor, don't tell us that—""I'm sorry, young people." The doctor takes off the mask he was wearing, "We've tried every procedure. But your father suffered a cardiac arrest last night, and he wasn't found until this morning. If he were brought here hours early..."There was no need for the doctor to say anything else. Vera yells "NO" and begins to cry prostrate and destroyed. Beto backs off into a corner, furious, his fists clenched, ready to punch Wallace
