Simeon and Dora are once again vexed by their son.“Son, sit down, you are not in some wedding,” Simeon orders him.But William insists on neighing, “Father, don't you see the absurdity of this will? Soon Igor will read that Josias left money for Pamela!”Uélton gets up, “Something against Josias leaving money for my son?”“Of course!” William yells, “So far my name hasn't even been mentioned.”Igor clears his throat, “William, you didn't expect Josias to leave Rocha Constructions for you, did you?”William takes offense at this, “Are you saying I can't do it?”Dora puts her hand on her glabella, “William, sit down and stop paying the sham.”William sits, frowning and unhappy.“Guys, that was the end of the will. Any questions?”“Not even my parents and Caio?” William neighs again.“William, stop it!” Simeon punches the mahogany table, “We don't need money, and if we do, your sister won't deny us.”“Of course, Will, I say the same to you and Caio.” Melissa responds, “That's why Josias

Continue to behave like the good student you always were.” Ernesto smiles and makes 'ok' with his thumb.“Yes, I will behave so that Dad can be proud in heaven.” Alan comments.Ernesto's heart sinks. It's been hard to hide from everyone, including his wife, that Josias is actually alive and about to return.After Alan disappears among the countless students, Ernesto goes to the usual payphone and dials the number he already knows by heart.At Josias's hideout, which appears to be a rustic wattle and daub house, the phone rings, and a bearded Josias answers.“Hello?”“Boss, here I am again.”“Did you research what I asked for?”“Yes.

At Crystal Blue, Maggie was with a Maggiezine photographer about to take a picture of Kelvin. The middle brother was smiling, arms crossed and chest cocked, in a sexy, confident pose.“Done, it was perfect!” Maggie gets excited.“It's best to make it clear to your readers that I'm just the maître d, not the owner of the restaurant.” Kelvin jokes.“Don't worry, I'll send Caesar to warn them,” Maggie responds between giggles.Daryl approaches wearing a dolman, “Dear sister, don't you think you're exaggerating? I don't know how to cook, I only know how to manage.”Maggie isn't overwhelmed by doubts and objections, “Trust me, bros. This publicity article will bring more customers here.”“We are thinking about hiring more employees because we are not keeping up with the customers' flow.” Daryl asks, “And you want to get me more customers?”Maggie kisses Daryl on the cheek to answer the question.******At the Rocha penthouse, Ernesto returns from the street and finds Melissa having a cup o

Josias is going around in circles, wondering how to get home without causing harm to family and friends.“Now that I know enough about this Bezerra family, I can go back. And if they want to make a fuss, I have Igor and the entire Lagoon City to defend me.”The door of the house opens and Nathanael enters, the owner of the house who welcomed our hero.“Mr. Rocha, are you up yet?”Josias notices that Nathanael is with what appears to be a pig, without the head.“Is this our lunch?”“No, this will be our dinner.” Nathanael wisely responds, “My wife will cook this pork for hours to stay healthy. The doctor at the medical post right there taught us that it's bad to eat undercooked pork.”Josias is moved by what Nathanael says. He has known since the age of ten that raw meat can give worms, especially the dreaded 'solitary'. But the people of the countryside had to learn in adulthood with the doctor at the medical post that is 'right there', that is, five kilometers away.“Nathanael, I hav

Where's the baby?Amoreira takes the floor, “Mr. Uélton Freire, I am Detective Amoreira. I'm handling the case involving your friends' accident, Mr. and Mrs. Barbosa.”“So tragic,” Uélton speaks.“Can you confirm if you saw Moacyr Barbosa’s car not being able to brake?”Uélton sits down where Tiago was, “Yes, that's what caught my attention. It seems that Seu Moacyr was totally distracted and emotional about the wedding. He was looking forward to finally marrying Cristina. The one who didn’t like it was her ex-husband.”Isabel puts her hand on her son's shoulder to ask him to focus.“In his first statement, Moacyr Barbosa claims he does not remember havin

Outside the hut, Josias admires the scenery one last time before heading back to the city. The dense forest and the singing of canaries make him relax. He takes a deep breath of the pure country air.“I wish I could have a place like this... but duty in the big city calls me.”Frederick leaves the house with an improvised backpack on his back, as if he were going camping, “I'm ready, Mr. Rocha.”“You better call me Josias from now on.” Josias smiles at him.Maria Aparecida appears wiping tears with an old handkerchief. Nathanael hugs his wife from the side.“God bless you and protect you, dear son,” Maria says goodbye to her only child.“I will always write, mother.” Frederick hugs his parents.The problem is that the postal service is precarious in rural areas.“Nathanael, thank you so much for taking me in. You don't know how much you helped me.” Josias says goodbye to the farmer.“You're welcome, Mr. Rocha. I'm still amazed that Ephraim was able to do that.”“It was certainly that

Chapter 3237 Mary’s Quinceañera (1)
That evening, the Rocha Events Hall was elegantly lit, and the soft sound of a waltz floated through the air.It was a joint celebration for Ignacio and Mary Campos Mountain. But more than just a birthday party, it marked Mary’s fifteenth birthday — her quinceañera.Because of that, the entire hall had been reserved for this important and unforgettable occasion.At the center of it all, Mary danced gracefully in a flowing, elegant pink gown that made her look like a miniature bride. Her dance partner, a close friend of sixteen, guided her with surprising poise.Around them, seven other couples glided across the floor, including Ignacio, who partnered with a girl from a well-known family. Henrique, as the cousin of the twins, also had his partner following the waltz.From the sidelines, Kelvin and Karen watched the scene with quiet pride, while Melissa and Josias — especially Melissa, mother of the birthday twins — took in the moment with emotion.“Look at your daughter,” Josias whispe
Chapter 3236 Support Your Wife
In the Mountain Penthouse living room, the atmosphere was far from serene. The heated discussion between Suzy and her boyfriend’s family showed no sign of calming down.“I can’t believe this!” Suzy exclaimed, her voice tight with indignation. “You all actually think I’m in love with Luís Vasquez!”Karen raised an eyebrow, her tone biting. “You’re not?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Suzy barked back. “I’m in love with Felipe — I love him!”Kelvin, unmoved, folded his arms. “Just not as much as you love your money and your... ‘investments.’”Diane lifted a hand, hoping to bring reason to the conversation. “Suzy, I’ve turned a deaf ear to all the gossip about you. I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane... I don’t know why Felipe insists on believing the lies João Paulo QUEIRÓS keeps spinning!”Daryl’s expression darkened. “So the problem lies with the journalist, then. Looks like I’ll have to deal with
Chapter 3235 I Don’t Want Cursed Money
The Mountain Penthouse living room was filled with tension that morning. Everyone was taken aback as the truth behind the fight that had sent Felipe to the hospital came to light.“Well, if that’s how it is...” Daryl began, clearly processing the news.Diane, urgent to defend her son, jumped in. “But wait, why exactly did Felipe and Luís decide to fight?”Suzy’s lips curled into a sly smile. It was time to drop the bomb.“According to my uncle Eugenio,” she began, “Felipe barged into his office and announced that he wanted to break up with me — because my uncle was happy about me being featured on the cover of Maggiezine.”Everyone looked even more stunned.“Wait, what does that have to do with anything?” Kelvin asked, frowning.Suzy explained, “Felipe saw my uncle thanking Luís for sort of encouraging me to accept the interview with Maggie.”Daryl exhaled sharply. “So my son just had a jealous outburst. That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you
Chapter 3234 The Girlfriend Showed Up
At the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin and Daryl were relieved that everything had turned out okay. Diane and Karen were nearby, on the sofas, chatting cheerfully. “God was merciful and allowed our son to live a few more years,” Diane declared. “Now, you both need to rest,” Karen patted Kelvin’s chest. “We slept beautifully while you two were in that sterile lounge.” Kelvin yawned once more. “I think I’ll take my dear wife’s advice; what do you think, Daryl?” “Who said we own the place?” Daryl yawned as well. The ladies laughed at their funny husbands. The doorbell rang. Tony passed through the living room, offering, “I’ll get it.” When Tony opened the door, he was surprised by the visitor. “Miss Cogo?” “How funny, you don’t call me by my first name. Did Felipe manage to talk to you before the coma?” Suzy asked bitterly, without smiling. Tony reacted perplexed by this torrent of unfriendly words. “Uh... Come in, please.” Suzy entered, ready for the storm. “Who is it, big brothe
Chapter 3233 A Surprising Report
The next day, Matthew Hogan entered the General Hospital lounge and found Daryl and Kelvin incredibly exhausted but hopeful. “Doctor, how did it go?” Daryl nearly jumped on Matthew. “Calm down, the patient survived the surgery. It’s just a matter of time before he’s back in his room.” “Oh, thank God!” Kelvin cheered. Daryl couldn’t resist and hugged Matthew. “Thank you so much, doctor!” Matthew smiled, somewhat awkwardly, but aware that it was a common reaction. “You’re welcome, we did everything we could.” “Yeah, I understand.” Daryl released the hug, rubbing his eyes — whether from sleep or wiping away a tear. “It’s going to take a little while. I suggest you both go home and rest a bit,” Matthew said. “I think we’ll do just that,” Kelvin yawned. “Now that the danger has passed, I think I deserve it. Doctor, let us know if anything happens,” Daryl requested, patting the doctor’s shoulder. “I’ll do. And congratulations to you both.” Matthew left the lounge. Kelvin yawned a
Chapter 3232 The Detective I Trust
At the Rocha Hotel, Eugenio and Jake are talking to Suzy about what is happening. Jake was upset. “Suzy, haven’t you gone to visit your boyfriend yet?” “I don’t know if it’s a good idea to show up there right now.” Suzy lowered her head. “The fight happened... here?” Eugenio responded indignantly, “Yes, in my beloved living room. Luís lost his temper when Felipe called him ‘Spanish Stallion.’“ Suzy lifted her head, completely changing her posture. “WHAT? Well, then, the beating didn’t come out of nowhere!” “Come on, sis, don’t go along with this,” Jake advised her. “They’re saying Felipe’s condition is serious.” “Serious is Luís getting teased every single day by the nickname he despises the most!” Suzy exclaimed. Eugenio decided to tell the whole story, “Suzy, there’s a lot more you don’t know.” “Tell me, uncle!” “Felipe, before being assaulted, said he wouldn’t continue dating you, claiming that the Cogo family would always prefer Luís.” Suzy reacted, paralyzed by this inf

Rodrigo and Nadia entered the General Hospital lounge, finding Karen and Diane. “We’re here! Where’s Daryl?” Nadia approached the couch. “He went to check with Kelvin for more information,” Diane sniffed. “Thanks for coming.” “We wouldn’t be family if we didn’t show up,” Nadia sat down near them. “And I’m a mother too.” Rodrigo poured himself some coffee. “Any news?” Diane took a deep breath. “Felipe is still awake. Dr. Hogan said the tests revealed a concussion, and they’re now deciding if surgery will be necessary.” “How horrible.” Nadia shuddered. “Well, whether surgery is necessary or not, I hope everything goes well for Felipe.” “Now, I find it strange that Suzy still hasn’t shown up!” Karen frowned. “Did you see her outside?” “No. We thought she was inside or with Daryl,” Nadia replied honestly. Diane shook her head. “No, guys, I can’t believe Suzy would choose to work or handle investments instead of checking on her boyfriend!” Rodrigo took a sip – the coffee wasn’t a
Chapter 3230 The Lady of Lagoon City Makes a Powerful Speech
At Vaztrans, William swallowed hard before answering Sofia’s question.“Sofia, your cousin really went too far this time,” he began cautiously.“What do you mean?” Sofia narrowed her eyes. “I know Luís can be a bit difficult, but—”“Yes, the hot Spanish blood speaks louder sometimes, right?” William took a deep breath. “Luís assaulted Felipe. Daryl rushed to the hospital.”Sofia reacted with her mouth open, holding her breath.Then she composed herself. “How could he do such a thing?”“Do you want to hear my guess?” William asked with a sly smile.“No! It can’t be because of Suzy Cogo!” Sofia ran her hands through her hair as if to pull it out.“It seems we were wrong to have accepted her partnership, huh?” William shook his head.“If she starts to tarnish Vaztrans’ reputation...” Sofia paced around the office. “First, her statement: her reluctance to raise the salary of the employees here. Now, this love triangle that I thought was over...”“Everaldo warned us to be careful with her,”
Chapter 3229 Despair at the General Hospital
At Vaztrans, William and Daryl were discussing the repercussions of Suzy’s article in Maggiezine.“People are accepting Suzy’s apologies and explanations,” William broke the silence, holding a copy.Daryl pursed his lips. “Whatever. Sometimes I think João Paulo is lurking, ready to pounce on anything to throw us into confusion.”“But the salary bonus we promised will be paid, right?” William smirked.“Of course, what choice do we have?” Daryl pointed to the magazine. “She made it clear in the interview. We’re not going to contradict her, are we?”William laughed ironically. “It seems Suzy is going to be the kind of person who does anything to get out of trouble, even if it means contradicting herself.”Daryl’s cell phone rang, and he answered, seeing it was Diane. “My dear is calling. Hello, Di?”Diane was at the hospital entrance, trying to be strong. “Hello, Daryl. We need you at the hospital.”“What happened?” Daryl’s eyes widened.“Luís Vasquez beat our son to a pulp, as they say,
