Josias and Octavio are walking to the Silva building. It is almost finished: all five floors have been completed, the walls have been erected, doors and windows are in place, and the electrical installation is complete.The head of Engineering and the Architect walk between the land where the parking lot is being built and the entrance. Countless workers work frantically to show excellence to their bosses.Moments later, the two of them are inside a studio apartment, this one with plastered walls and laid tile floor. Josias notes that the space is bigger than the old little room in which he lived in Seu Teodoro's building."With this space, whoever lives in those cramped rooms in Seu Teodoro's building won't want to go back there." Josias jokes.Octavio turns to him. "Some tenants have come forward in that direction, friend.""What do you mean?" Josias raises his eyebrows."They say if they charge rent here, they won't mind staying."

"Rest assured that I'll call them back," Tiago responds in an icy tone."But do you know their phone number?" Carmen asks confused."You can go, Carmen..." Romualdo speaks in a bored tone.Carmen purses her lips and leaves, closing the door."What's this story that he was found, Tiago?" Octavio asks as soon as he hears the 'clank' from the door.Tiago looks at the gentlemen present: "The master here, Josias, asked me to look for him. My men found him." Tiago gets up, "Excuse me, I must report to Officer Prates."Tiago leaves and closes the door. Those who stayed in the room got shivers in their spine."He says 'my men' with such a creepy, ghostly tone... like he's the moneylender." Romualdo takes a handkerchief and wipes the sweat from his forehead."We still don't know everything about the Bento family." Josias responds with a slight smile, "But maybe that's all the fun of the situation, the mystery all around. All I know is t

Melissa is sitting on the couch attentively reading a crochet magazine. She has needles and skeins of yarn in her lap, ready to put it into practice once she's learned enough. The radio is playing the song "Wonderful Life" by Black.Flávia appears and burns with jealousy when she sees her cousin wanting to learn more. She only knows how to do housework. "Dinner is served, cousin."Melissa turns to her and smiles, "Thanks for informing, Flavia.""It's good to know I'm useful for something!"Melissa breaks her smile and gets annoyed. "What tone is that, Flavia? Do you want to vent something?"Flávia approaches, incredulous at what she heard. Is it serious that the cousin hasn't realized what's wrong?"Melissa, I don't like the way your mother-in-law talks to me. She gives me orders, and I'm used to it. But I couldn't handle this one about sending me to lunch in my room. I've never done such an absurd thing in my poor house; shoul

Wallace doesn't know what to say to Isabel when she questions him if he's satisfied with his life. The clerk even stops typing so the noise of the keys doesn't bother her."I'm still waiting for the answer, son. What made you think that taking revenge on Vera so cruelly was the best thing to do?""Mother, if you really want to understand, so you try putting yourself in my place!" Wallace finally speaks with rage in his eyes, "You must know by now that I wasn't robbed in 1983. Beto beat me up because he thought I slept with Vera. When I found out it was all Vera's lie, I got blind of revolt! Pamela broke our engagement because of that lie, and I didn't love Vera! We kissed over the wine, but we never had anything carnal! And she tried to make me believe that we had something... before the wedding, can you understand my situation?""I understand your situation, but I don't agree with your decision to resolve this situation!" Isabel pulls away and wipes her eyes.Read more
