2024-10-29 19:42:56Pamela returns from the street with shopping bags. Cristina and Moacyr decide to approach her to help with her marriage mess.
"Honey, can we talk?" Cristina does the question.
Pamela grimaces meaning the contrary, "I'm not in the mood, Mom. I need to make lunch and there's nothing ready to be reused."
"It won't take long." Cristina insists and even blocks her way, "It upsets me a little to see you unhappy. Are you sure you can't live peacefully with your husband?"
"No, we're not sure of anything," Pamela responds fiercely.
Moacyr tries to advise her, "Daughter, we know that what Beto did was something reprehensible, but time has passed and Caio will not return to this building. You need to get on with your life, for Rosemary and Pedro."
Pamela casts a disdainful look at Moacyr, "Excuse me, I didn't ask for your opinion. I know you're my mother's boyfriend, but I ask you not to intrude."
"Pamela, I don't allow this!" Cristina gets angr

My wife is going to collect alimony, huh?" Vernon laughs at his own joke.Bernardo closes the door and shoots daggers through his eyes, "Don't be a clown, Vernon!

Kelvin enters the office where Daryl is calling a supplier."Look, I'm sorry it's not raining enough on your farm, but my lettuce order came in unsatisfactory. The foliage was yellowed and sunburned. When something like that happens, you should lower the price..." Daryl nods, "OK, I'll be reasonable with you. Talk to you next time, I need to attend to another matter." Daryl hangs up, "Yeah, little brother?""We are pleased to serve Josias Rocha." Kelvin announces pompously, "He even brought in the husband of a famous novelist, Mr. Freire.""I don't know, maybe Maggie does." Daryl frowns, "Kelvin, order our boss to give all of him to their dishes.""The chef already knows Mr. Rocha's tastes and is aware, Daryl."

Uélton is equally embarrassed to see Josias outside. The way he's wrapped himself in the blanket doesn't quite cover him up, letting Josias see he's naked."I'm not even going to ask the classic 'Am I interrupting something' because I definitely am!" Josias comments good-naturedly."Come in, buddy!" Uélton gives space and Josias enters, "Ehr... what time is it?""It's almost six o'clock." Josias replies, "Why didn't you wait until later?"Josias looks around the living room: the two sofas are in a bizarre position, indicating that they have been pushed around because of vigorous and violent sexual activity. Books, records, and a lamp were knocked over. It looked like a WWII scene!Uélton narrows his eyes trying to locate himself. Six pm? That means they've been since...

Josias just rests looking up with his eyes closed, as the feeling is relaxing. "Feeling better, honey?" Melissa questions him. "Yes, thanks for asking." Josias answers with his eyes still closed. "I found it interesting what you talked about helping Seu Harold." Melissa turns off the dryer, "Because João Paulo was here today." Josias straightens up in the tub and opens his eyes, "What did my brother come here for?" "He came to question me about the enmity between his parents and the Freire family." Melissa stores the dryer in the drawer of one of the dressers, "Obviously, I avoided the subject." Josias is not comfortable with this, "You shouldn't shy away, dear. João Paulo is bothered about this war and wants to understand what's going on." Mel

Flavia visits Harold's house to criticize Maggiezine's new story. Reuben is with his grandfather watching the fishing show. "Look, grandson, how much shrimp!" Harold marvels at the catch and the fishing nets overflowing with shrimp. "Wow!" Reuben is amazed and awestruck. Isabel and Flávia are on the other sofa. "Dear mother-in-law, did you see what a horrible story Maggiezine put in place of yours?" Flavia asks disdainfully. "I haven't had a chance to read it yet," Isabel answers truthfully. But Flavia saw scoff and malice in Isabel's words and giggled ironically, "Of course, you haven't read it; you won't waste time with loser's stories. You're already writing the second book, correct?" Isabel apprehensively agrees, "Well… yes, but it's not because I despise the runner-up in the contest—" "Hey, you need to see the historical inaccuracy she got!"

Igor is prepared to answer Josias's questions. "Josias, I know at first this might seem crazy. I didn't expect to fall in love with Stacy under the circumstances. But seeing her so desperate and unprotected... and knowing that it was my brother who caused her suffering... something inside of me says I must reward her." Josias smiles slightly, trying to help him, "Igor, remember that it's precisely because you're Marcelo's brother that Stacy might not want to date you." William, still hidden, nods frowning. Igor lost his mind? "So don't react as you've already won the contest." Josias continues to advise Igor, "If Stacy decides to date another guy, you have to let her go." "I can't let her go, she's mine!" Igor yells in disbelief. Josias's eyes widen, "But, it's exactly this unreasonable and domineering posture that Stacy doesn't want in her life anymore, Igor!

Josias visits the Rocha Hotel since he didn’t have a day off for the staff. In the management room, Eugenio gathered David, Benjamin, and Sybil. “Why is that mere cook present at this meeting?” David asked disparagingly. “Because that’s how our boss ordered it,” Eugenio replied dryly. “I didn’t say anything and didn’t call this meeting, so if you’ll excuse me...” Benjamin and Sybil were horrified to see David leaving the meeting just like that. However, when he opened the door, David came face to face with his father. “David, where do you think you’re going?” “DAD!” David exclaimed, extremely surprised. “I didn’t know you were coming!” “Didn’t Eugenio tell you I was coming?” Josias asked with a scowl. David understood who the ‘boss’ was. Benjamin and Sybil felt vindicated. Josias sat down at the desk, taking Eugenio’s seat, while the manager remained humbly standing. “Very well,” Josias began the meeting in a formal tone, “I’m here just to make things crystal clear.

At João Paulo’s house, he and Josias were about to have a significant conversation.“Walter, do you want to go with your mom to the kitchen?” João Paulo asked, looking at Helen. “I think she made some walnut cake.”“It was carrot cake,” Sandra replied, already getting up from the couch.“You got it.” Helen appeared and picked up Walter in her arms. “Let’s let Dad and Uncle Josias talk.”“Bye, Uncle!” Walter waved goodbye to Josias.“Bye-bye, I want a piece later!” Josias chuckled.Once alone with João Paulo, Josias became serious. “Don’t let anything or anyone ruin this family scenario, little brother.”“I’m fine. No one wants to ruin anything,” João Paulo replied casually.“Well, I hope David hasn’t caused you any trouble.”“He probably doesn’t even know I exist, man.” João Paulo shrugged.“But I stopped by Café Montanha and found out that the Vasquez family has replaced the Mountain family as the ‘annoying people.’”João Paulo sighed in disappointment. “Yeah.

Josias visits Café Montanha for a coffee and finds Rodrigo there. “Rod, how have you been?” Rodrigo is taken aback. “How am I? You’re the one who suffered a horrific loss recently!” “But you also lost your father. We’re in the same situation,” Josias explained as he sat down on a stool. “I’m okay, Josias. Life has a way of cheering me up. For example, I’m back at the diner after Thierry decided to take his place at the supermarket.” Rodrigo smiled. “What about the photography studio?” Josias smiled back. “It’s still going to operate, and Thierry will make periodic visits. But he’s going to appoint one of the staff to manage the studio.” Rodrigo served a pizza pastry to Josias. “Thank you. Well, I hope everything is alright between you two. I need to visit Rosemary and meet Jean Luc — is that the name of the baby?” “Yes, the name of the supermarket heir. Meanwhile, Frank will be here or somewhere else.” Josias interjected, “If Frank wants to work at Rocha Constructions, count

The embrace breaks. “Let’s go to my office.” The two gentlemen enter Josias’s imposing office. “Any problems with Adolfo?” Josias asks, becoming serious. “Not yet, but I hope not to have any,” Benjamin replies with some sadness. “You know, Josias, what happened with your father made me think about my family, about how important it is for all of us to be together in the final moments.” “That’s true. João Paulo can tell you that better than I can.” “I think you can say it too. Vernon was the father you never had.” Benjamin clears his throat. “So, I’ve been looking into some hotels and realized there’s a demand at the Rocha Hotel in Victoria.” Josias looks at Benjamin, understanding where he’s going with this. “You want to go to Victoria to be close to your pare

Someone rings the doorbell at João Paulo’s house. The homeowner goes to answer after taking a shower and putting on clean clothes. But when he opened the door, João Paulo felt like slamming it in the visitor’s face. “Don’t be rude!” Erasmo exclaimed. “What do you want, you old bore?” João Paulo shot back. Erasmo barged into João Paulo’s foyer. “The mourning is over. Let’s pick up where we left off.” “Are you crazy? Who decides how long mourning lasts? We just got back from the trip!” “Not exactly, it’s been a day. Life goes on, my friend!” Erasmo replied mockingly. João Paulo remained serious. “But I don’t want to continue living this way, where fights and intrigues are the order of the day. Mr. Vasquez, you have a business to run, and I have a family to raise.” “But you found time to slap my son-in-law when he was here defending his family, didn’t you?” “Alan was extremely rude, but that was some time ago.” João Paulo frowned. “I don’t feel the same anger as before.” “So a

At the Vasquez Mansion, Alan could hardly believe that the people were thinking about more intrigues and disputes. “Guys, don’t you understand that I even forgot the reason I slapped Uncle João Paulo?” “Ridiculous!” Erasmo gestured. “You just maintained respect because it was a difficult occasion. But now, the mourning is OVER!” “Do you think João Paulo will rest, dear?” Sofia asked, sitting next to him. Alan shook his head. “If Uncle João Paulo doesn’t want to rest, then he is truly despicable. But my dad is back in town. He wouldn’t dare to do that.” The news should have been uplifting, but the members of the Vasquez family merely exchanged silent glances. With Josias present, it’s quite likely that he will put a stop to their fighting. Alan turned to Olivia. “In the meantime, we should celebrate the recovery of my dear mother-in-law!” Olivia and Sofia smiled awkwardly because of the secret they were keeping. “That’s right, let’s celebrate life!” Erasmo wrapped his arm arou

Josias greeted them with a light smile. “Where’s João Paulo?” William asked. “He went straight to his house. His kids needed to rest from the trip.” Melissa wiped her tears with her fingers. “Alan went straight to his mansion. Especially now that his mother-in-law has woken up from the coma.” “That was a scare; I thought we’d have two funerals,” Simeon commented. Everyone headed to the living room. “Is Paris very beautiful, Mom?” Mary asked. “Yes, sweetheart, it’s stunning. We’ll go shopping together another time, okay?” “Do you have pictures?” Ignacio asked anxiously. “Yes, son, we took some pictures.” Melissa sat on the couch, pulling out a package from her bag.

Can you make me a cappuccino while I enjoy a natural sandwich?” Daryl places his order. “Sure thing, Mr. Mountain.” Neilton heads to the back. Daryl sits on the stool. “So, how do you feel after getting back to your element?” “I don’t regret at all helping my dear wife at the supermarket, Daryl,” Rodrigo admitted while preparing the natural sandwich. “I’m not talking about regrets.” Daryl joked. “But it’s undeniable that after Uncle Francisco’s passing, you prefer to stay here, carrying on the legacy he left.” “Just like Crystal Blue.” Rodrigo smiled. “Hey, I’m aware that you’re looking to open another restaurant in Sunset Village. Do you think you can manage it? How’s the prospecting going?” Daryl picks up the sandwich but
