Chapter 41 The Truth That Sets You Free
Saturday dawned in Green Coral, with the sun’s rays reflecting on Cindy’s bedroom window.The rays fell on the most controversial couple of the moment. In bed, they only had the blanket to cover their bodies that until moments ago were given over to lust and passion.But someone decided that the man in the relationship would have no rest. His cell phone rang insistently, making him groan and scratch his eyes sleepily.“Who will be... Oh, boy... HELLO?”“Good morning, sleepyhead!” Walter was sitting on the bed in his bedroom, “Finally, huh? Where have you been and where are you now?”“Wait a minute...” Matthew yawns, “I thought I saw ‘Walt’ on the caller ID, not ‘Mom’.”“I’m worried about you and your mother.” Walter isn’t one for jokes, “I stopped by your house and there was no one living there. The mailbox is full of letters and bills to pay. And Patty said I’m helping you live in a hotel while your mother recovers from the allergic crisis she had!”Matthew’s sleep was gone. He leans

Chapter 42 Matthew Visits Headquarters
On Blue Cove beach, Walter is digesting the news that his best friend was never truly poor, but rather filthy rich.He can’t hold back any longer and hugs Matthew tightly, “MATT! That’s wonderful!”“Yeah, I know!” Matthew feels relief in his chest when he confesses the truth to someone.“I should have suspected.” Walter breaks the hug.“How would you guess?” Matthew shakes his head, “Until a while ago, I didn’t know either.”“No, you left several signs.” Walter begins to list them, “Your new cell phone, your new clothes, the very expensive dress you paid for Patricia, your disappearance from the favela... None of this was just money from the Golden Letters internship.”“OK, I admit, it wasn’t. But people despise me so much that it never occurred to them that I could improve my life.” Matthew laments.“But I always believed in you, buddy.” Walter pats his shoulder, “And now I’m very happy. Where are you living?”“At Sterling Mansion. We’re almost neighbors, man.”Walter can’t stop laug

Chapter 43 The Meeting Is Scheduled
Matthew is angry to discover that Ricardo took revenge on Cindy in the worst way possible.“Cindy, I told you he was holding you back because of the internship. But don’t worry, we’ll work it out.”Cindy, at her house, sits on the couch in the living room, “And how are we going to solve this?”“Trust me.” Matthew smiles confidently.“From here, I can see your smile.” Cindy hilariously comments, “But I can’t understand how you’re going to convince LCN to keep my internship without Ricardo Montegrande interfering in the matter.”“Trust me, darling.” Matthew insists in a candid voice.Cindy has a feeling of security running through her body. “OK, I trust you. I called you just to lament about it. I didn’t know the solution was in your hands.”“What would be the point of me being your boyfriend if I couldn’t help you? That loser grill cook you once knew doesn’t exist anymore, darling. I need to go now.” Matthew blows kisses on his cell phone and ends the call.Abner remains next to his gr

Chapter 44 Dumb Cindy Doesn’t Put 2 + 2 Together
Cindy finally decides to return to civilized mode and asks the visitor who he is.“Ehr... Excuse me, sir, but do I know you?”“Oh, sorry... No, you don’t know me, but you must know my sister who is in there.”Cindy is torn between pleasure and disgust. Is this hot hunk her rival’s brother?Patricia seems to have recognized the voice, as it appeared in the foyer. “JACKSON! What the hell are you doing here?”“Hi, sis. I needed to know if you were going to be okay. Sorry, but I followed you.” Jackson speaks in a brotherly, protective tone.Cindy licks her lips when she feels Jackson’s loving and protective aura.Patricia, on the other hand, doesn’t seem to appreciate her brother. “You didn’t have to do that. I’m fine.”“I didn’t think so. I heard shouting and insults outside. I decided to go in to stop you girls from ending up fighting.”“Thank you very much for your concern, sir...?” Cindy holds out her hand.“Jackson Borges.” Jackson greets the owner of the house with a kind smile.“Mr

Chapter 45 The Son of Karl Sterling
Sunday. Vicente, Andreia, and Nathan get together for the big lunch at the Sterling Mansion.They are received respectfully by Jarbas in the foyer.“Good morning, Gouveia family. Good morning, Miss Sterling.”Nathan is disgusted, “Why are you calling my mother by her maiden name, you worthless butler?”Jarbas faces Nathan as an equal, “It’s to always remind her of where she came from. Follow me to the living room.”Vicente glares at Andreia and she lowers her head. The three go to the living room.There, as they sit on the sofas, Vicente begins to neigh as soon as Jarbas leaves.“Honey, didn’t I tell you yesterday about these people looking down on me? Here, you’re not Mrs. Gouveia, you are forever an extension of the Sterling family!”Andreia tries to dodge the bullets, “You don’t complain when our son is constantly called ‘Nathan Sterling’ by the media and social media.”“But with our son it’s different.” Vicente states, “He needs to be recognized by the surname of the conglomerate

Chapter 46 The Decision Is Made
The biggest confusion started in the Sterling Mansion.After the clank of the wine glass shattering on the wall, Abner stood up, outraged and scandalized. What is that?Matthew straightens up with the same charismatic smile. “It seems like I arrived at a bad time.”Sheila can’t control herself. She also gets up, goes straight to Nathan, and slaps him as hard as she can.“HOW DARE YOU throw that glass at my son?”Andreia is the next to get up, grabbing Sheila’s arm, “Release my son, you capybara!”“SILENCE!” Abner roars like the lion, “Sit down, everyone! Let’s act like civilized people, what a shame!”“NEVER!” Nathan screams at the top of his lungs, risking becoming hoarse, “I will never sit at the same table as the intern!”Evan rolls his eyes. What a stupid kid!Alice also finds Nathan’s stupidity incredible, “Nate, it’s not possible that you haven’t realized that you’re not in front of any intern. That boy is your cousin, Matthew Sterling. He was lost, but he was found.”Nathan beg

Chapter 47 Unlearned Lessons
Monday. Andreia and Vicente have their breakfast in the kitchen. The coffee is sweet and pleasant, but Vicente feels like he is drinking something without sugar. Andreia doesn’t appear as nervous as her husband.“The reveal of Matthew’s return was pretty impressive, huh?” She ventures a comment.“It was disappointing to learn that the future of the Starling Empire is in the hands of a brat who had been missing for over twenty years!” Vicente slams the cup on the saucer, “Honey, we can’t leave things as they are!”Andreia is surprised, “What can we do? It’s my father’s decision, and as seen yesterday, it seems like he has already been made.”Vicente scratches the back of his head in displeasure. Damn it!The bell is sounded. Andreia gets up to answer.Upon opening the door, Nathan flies inside. “Mom, Dad, it’s too late for us to drink coffee as if nothing were happening! We need to come up with a plan of action to convince my grandfather that I am the true and legitimate heir! The Star

Chapter 48 Rubbing it in Her Face
Classes ended, and Matthew and Walter returned to the square. Patricia is serving customers with a meditative expression.“Waitress, are you listening to my order?” The customer complains.“Pardon me.” Patricia shakes her head, “Did you order two glasses of mango juice?”“Two glasses of orangeade.” The customer frowns, questioning the waitress’s hearing.“One moment.” Patricia goes to the table where Matthew and Walter sat, “And you guys, what do you want?”“I want to talk to Clay.” Matthew smiles at her.“Matt, what’s this about you wanting to help Mr. Saldanha expand his business?” Patricia frowns, “That’s a joke in very bad taste!”Matthew drops his smile. “Do you think I would joke about something like that with the man who gave me a job?”“I don’t know, explain it to me.” Patricia sticks out her chin defiantly.Walter pokes his friend’s shoulder, “Tell her, man...”“Tell me what?” Patricia asks carefully.“There’s nothing to tell.” Matthew fumes, “Patty, can I or can I not talk t

Chapter 49 Mother-in-law vs Daughter-in-law
Cindy could hardly believe that she was standing before the heir to the Starling Empire. So it wasn't a joke! This explains a lot...Cindy maneuvered the car to park near the sidewalk before she started blocking traffic."What's up, darling?" Matthew jokes, "Say something!"Cindy can't articulate entire sentences, "Honey... My love... But how about you... And the favela? Your smelly job, your dirty clothes—""OK, let's answer calmly." Matthew has fun, laughing non-stop. "I didn't know I was Matthew Sterling. My mother hid that fact from me since I was a child. I had no memory of my life as a rich man.""Didn't your mother show you photographs?" Cindy is horrified."No, I was totally in the dark." Matthew states, "By an incredible coincidence or divine maneuver, my grandfather Abner Sterling built the headquarters and university here in town. When I started studying, he probably saw me and wondered... Well, he said he had been looking for me for years. Now he found me."Cindy applies t

Chapter 50 Making a Difference
Matthew is careful not to speak ill of Nathan in front of his father. You never know, maybe that’s what Vicente is waiting for...“Uncle Vicente, I didn’t have the opportunity to spend time with Nathan to form such a serious opinion.” He dodges.Vicente smiles like a snake, “But you met him yesterday.”“Did I meet him?” Matthew frowns, “He threw a glass of wine at me and then disappeared. I didn’t see him around the mansion all afternoon. Maybe he went for a swim in the sea to relax.”“You must understand, Matt.” Vicente claims, “For a long time, my son believed he would inherit the Sterling Empire. It’s hard to swallow that a stranger who came out of nowhere is going to snatch the throne from him.”“Uncle Vicente, I haven’t decided on that yet.” Matthew doesn’t know that Abner has already confirmed it to Vicente.This leaves Vicente intrigued, with his hand on his chin, “You still don’t know? But it’s the natural order of things. You’re Karl’s direct son. My son is a Gouveia, despite
