The next day, Paula is waiting for the coffee maker to finish brewing the coffee. Suddenly, she's wide-eyed and open-mouthed in shock. She can perfectly hear Laura's humming as she enters the kitchen in her pink robe! Paula turns on her heel and exclaims, "MISTRESS LAURA! You can walk!" Laura chokes on the lines of a Céline Dion song she was humming, "Paula, what do you mean? I didn't get paralyzed, what are you talking about?" Paula turns to the coffee maker and turns it off, "Ehr... I'm getting into things that don't concern me." Laura approaches the maid, "Paula, I told us to be friends. I need your trust and support. Can you explain to me why you are so surprised to see me walk?" Paula is serving breakfast, expressing embarrassment on her face, "With your screams echoing from the library, I thought you were going to be incapacitated for the rest of the week." Laura narrows her eyes and wiggles, feeling sorry for Paula, "My dear, I was screaming in rage in the library because

Antonio enters the Ferreira mansion trembling with fear because of the exchange of surveillance files. Eduardo approaches him wearing house clothes."Tony, what happened? Why did you come back from the police station with that defeatist look on your face?""Perhaps it's because we are truly defeated, my comrade!" Antonio exclaims, "Someone sent the real files. Not to mention the forensics team found your fingerprints on the railings. The recording of you entering the suite before Márcio Rios fell off the balcony corroborates that you—""NO, I didn't kill that imbecile!" Eduardo yells as a little boy scared of clowns, "I'm innocent, Tony, I swear!"Antonio hugs Eduardo as if he were the son he never had, "I know, Eddie, I believe in your innocence. This is all the fault of that bitch, Aline Mendonça! Sergeant Oliveira informed me that there is a recording of the security guards trying to drag the deceased out, but it was Aline who insisted that the guards let him in!"The hug is broken

Laura enters Sergeant Oliveira's office. He has a serious expression, reviewing the surveillance video files on his computer."Here I am, Sergeant.""Sit down, Mrs. Silva." Oliveira indicates the chair.Laura sits down, "I'm curious how I can help you.""Just tell me the truth." Oliveira stares at the interrogated woman, "What do you know about this case of Mr. Rios's tragic death?"Laura takes a deep breath, "Not much. I didn't know the dead man, but he was a co-worker of my husband, Reginaldo Silva.""Yes, the owner of Gomes Estates, Bruno Castelo, has already given me his statement.""I only recently learned through my husband that the socialite Aline Mendonça was having a relationship with him." Laura takes a sly look as she drops this piece of information in an attempt to ruin Aline's reputation.And Sergeant Oliveira worsens her image, "Actually, Mrs. Silva, I was informed that Miss Mendonça had only sexual contact with the deceased. They didn't even consider themselves friends,

Natalia is astonished when she hears her father talking on the cell phone that Reginaldo may be the next to be 'suicided' by Antonio Ferreira's henchmen.“Dad, stop playing with that stuff!” She complains. Matias hugs her tightly from behind.“I would never joke about such matters, my daughter.” Bartolomeo justifies himself, “I just want my boy's safety.”"I'm sure he's safe." Natalia forces herself to think about it, "I won't allow myself to think about anything else.""May God hear you, my princess." Bartolomeo sighs, “Still, will you see him?”“We had a free schedule, but today we are going there.” Natalia looks back and Matias nods."Thank you, honey. See you later!" Bartolomeo hangs up.Natalia sends kisses through her cell phone and also hangs up. She gets up and goes to the wardrobe.“Where are we going, dear?” Matias remains under the blankets.“We are going to stay at the hotel, where else?” She chooses two hangers of evening gowns, “You can pick up your cell phone and make o

Reginaldo is in the library, as usual, watching the sales of properties in the Swan building. Paula enters with a tray of juice and toast."Sir, I brought you an afternoon snack.""Thank you very much, Paula. You have been an exemplary maid.""I always try to do my duty, sir." She sets the tray on the desk.Reginaldo continues typing with his eyes fixed on the monitor."Sir, can we talk?" Paula can't seem to hold back out of curiosity."What do you want to talk about, Paula?""Yesterday did you bring any whores to fornicate here in the library?"Reginaldo doesn't think twice: he gets up and slaps the indiscreet maid.Taken by surprise, Paula has to hold on to the bookcase to keep from falling."You can withdraw." Reginaldo grunts and sits back down.Paula lowers her head and swallows her tears. She hastily withdraws.After closing the door, Reginaldo punches the desk, knowing perfectly well why the maid asked such nonsense.******Antonio is calling Laura on his cell phone. Marianne e
