Following day. Adrian walks through the hospital corridors until he enters the room where Moacyr is. He is awake being cared for by a very attractive female nurse.

"Here it is, Seu Moacyr, breakfast: jelly and bread with hazelnut butter spread on it. Can you drink the coffee? I don't want the cup to run and the coffee to burn you."

Adrian gets jealous of his own father, thinking he's the one flirting with the nurse, "'Seu' Moacyr? Isn't he Mr. Barbosa?"

Moacyr and the nurse notice the annoying son's presence.

Moacyr pleads in a funereal tone, "Leave us alone, nurse."

The nurse leaves, glaring at Adrian.

Adrian says as he approaches, "Looks like I've stopped some flirting."

Moacyr scolds him, "Stop being a pervert. All you think about is 'that'. The good, kind nurse was serving me breakfast."

"For that, you have a son. Only ONE son."

Adrian fits the portable table into the hospital bed and calibrates the bed so Moacyr can

Josias smiles slightly, feeling that a revelation was about to come out of Beto's mouth, "Rosemary isn't... what?" Beto shakes his head, "Forget it, I was going to say something stupid." Josias decides not to insist for the time being, "Is there greater nonsense than lying saying that William didn't want to take Caio to your apartment?" Beto tries his best to make Josias not ask what he was going to say about Rosemary again. "Come on, Josias, are you serious when you say we're invited to the brat's birthday?" Josias shrugs, "If you don't want to stay in the penthouse, just take the kids. I'm sure Seu Raymond will gladly take Junior."

Raymond hardens his gaze, "Since it was you who did the favor of opening your mouth and putting doubts in my son's heart, yes, the matter has become urgent!" Cristina nudges Moacyr, "See, honey? I told you not to meddle." Moacyr retracts his body, "Watch out for my arm in a cast, honey." Raymond rolls his eyes and crosses his arms, "Looks like nobody gives a shit about my son."

Does Pamela want to keep this forever?"It's because I only assumed paternity of Rosemary to keep you from going back to Wallace! He needed to stay with Vera… at that time."Pamela smiles evilly, "Yeah, because then you saw how violent Wallace became. Glad I got rid of that big problem."Beto insists, "Now Pamela, after five years, can you satisfy my curiosity?

    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.

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

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

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
