"Was that the story she was telling me before I showed up?" Josias asks, also with a cold face.
"My love, Carmen had asked me to keep the secret. How did you find out?" Melissa asks instead of answering directly.
"She showed up just yesterday, making the biggest scandal and slapping me twice. She insinuated that I was the father." Josias shakes hands to Melissa, "But, that is a lie, dear! I love you, I would not suffer as much to have you as a girlfriend as I suffered for right after cheating on you, and even more so with your best friend!"
"No, of course not," Melissa has a strange expression, "if you were to betray me, it would be with a completely unknown person; so that I won't find out so easily."
Josias is startled. That was not what he meant.
"You are distorting what I sai

But, the smile didn't last long when Pamela saw that Josias remained rough and cold.Josias approaches menacingly and Pamela feels shivers down her spine. "Do you still smile when you know exactly what I came to talk about?""Don't do anything stupid, or I'll scream for help!" Pamela speaks with fear, "My sister was kicked out of here without ceremony.""I bet she gave you a well-deserved concealer." Josias is not intimidated."Say what you want and get out of here, this is a place of rest and recovery."

After they finished talking, Josias and Uélton decide to leave, since they have nothing else to do in Tiago's new house. They go to the sidewalk and admire the fully built house. The single-stored house with colonial roof tile and a wall made of blocks has nothing to do with the other rectangular and dull houses that surround it. It looks like someone took this house from Saint Gabriel and put it there."Man, it is good for Mr. Bento to put an alarm system in this house; otherwise it will be robbed every day." Uélton, as always, makes jokes about everything."Do you think he doesn't think about that? Whoever has a nice house in this place, unfortunately, catches the attention of a thug. So there's no use for us to have a better life in here." Josias concludes with a regretful tone, "That's why I want to raise my family in another neighborhood. I intend to talk to Melissa about it.""Well, I'm going home." Uélton pulls Josias by the shirt, "D

Wallace pleads, "Why does everything have to be taken as a joke?""Life is too boring to be taken seriously, brother!" Uélton stops laughing. "We are going to dinner, and you apologize to Josias."Wallace is alarmed and reacts like a cornered animal. "Wow, what do you mean? Apologize to Josias? He's the one who has to apologize; not me! How about Melissa?""Stop that idea, brother, I put my hand on the fire and I swear that Josias was not cheating on Melissa, especially with Pamela! It's something so easy to discover.""Ah, so the problem is to be found out, is that why Josias doesn't risk sleeping with Pamela?" Wallace's voice is filled with irony.Uélton, in a rare fit of seriousness, crosses his arms and glares at Wallace. "Listen here, my brother: I don't say that Josias is capable, but if on

The next day, Josias is having breakfast with Teodoro. Today there is no service at Tiago's house, so Josias is wearing a normal shirt and casual shorts."Son, I want to ask you something, but you don't have to accept it." Teodoro pulls out a chair and sits down, somewhat afraid to anger Josias, "I know that now you have nothing to do, so I thought you could help me tidy up the backyard. It doesn't have to be today, maybe tomorrow..."Josias smiles at him. He wanted to take the day off, and Teodoro is embarrassed to ask for this favor."You can relax, Seu Teodoro. I could help you today.""No, son, leave it for tomorrow. Today is your first day off after many months. I know very well that the mason service is strenuous, and you took that building basically from the beginning.""Uélton who was not so lucky," Josias takes a sip of coffee, "he went to the home of Tiago Bento's younger brother.

"Josias," Romualdo asks after clearing his throat, "don't tell me you prefer to keep working as you are!" "If so, we will be disappointed," Tiago tries to argue. "We feel that you have the capacity to grow in life." Josias after hearing these and other attempts by the two masters to dissuade him from the idea, smiles, and gestures for them to be silent. "Gentlemen, please," Josias explains in a comical tone, "I did not come here to refuse the offer. In fact, I came here to confirm. Remember that I promised to think better." Romualdo and Tiago sigh in relief. Then they laugh at themselves for being so apprehensive. "Yes, you promised to think better." Romualdo remembers, "And you asked your friends and girlfriend." "They all approve and say that I deserve it." Josias nods, "So I decided not to disappoint

Pamela screams louder than the machine, "Abigail said I need to rest!""Are you thinking this is a hotel?"

Melissa worried about her parents' objection regarding the twins getting involved with their paternal family. "Mom, Dad, I understand your concern." Melissa broke the silence. "But in a way, they're right. I don't have the right to completely cut them off from Kelvin. Besides, they have another little brother." Dora looked at her wristwatch. "At this hour, Mary must be in the penthouse, keeping an eye on Anthony." "Oh, did they say they were going to do that?" Melissa smiled slightly. "Yes, someone texted them asking for it. Probably Kelvin," Simeon replied seriously. Dora explained, "Daughter, let's hope Daryl doesn't take advantage of the closeness to poison our grandchildren's minds." Melissa was alarmed. "What are you saying, Mom? I won't allow that!" "No, I know you won't allow it." Dora frowned. "That's why I hope you visit Kelvin and set some boundaries." "If I bring this up, I'll unintentionally be starting a stupid war," Melissa retorted. "They know their boundaries.

At Rocha Constructions, Sofia is eager to prove that she was right all along about Suzy. She leaned back against Alan again, wanting information. "Dear, before we were interrupted, you were saying something about me being right to be suspicious of Suzy Cogo. I knew that smartass was planning something!" Alan scratched the back of his neck. "I feel like she was the one Everaldo mentioned in the prophecy." Sofia's eyes lit up. "That's true! Suzy is the only one investing out there! Do you think she will want a slice of Rocha Constructions?" "I sincerely hope my dad doesn't agree to sell any shares. I won't do that. Better warn Caio." Alan became serious. "Well, I'll have to put up with her at Vaztrans." Sofia sighed, feeling discouraged. Alan turned to his wife with curiosity. "Speaking of which, dear, we haven't heard any news about Vaztrans being in trouble this year. Did you finally manage to control the spending?" Sofia looked confused. "Uh, I don't know what you're talking a

He asked, lost."You silly!" Sofia began to laugh. "This is your reward for believing in me. And tonight, you'll have another reward that's under my panties—"The last phrase was clearly heard by Caio, who was opening the door at that moment.Sofia quickly bounced off Alan's lap, trying to disguise the intimacy. Caio blushed slightly, smiling awkwardly.Alan smiled nervously. "Wow, everyone decided to start early in 2012! Good morning, cousin."Caio avoided looking at Sofia. "Good morning, cousin. Do we have any updates regarding our annual meeting?""My dad appointed me president – again." Alan's cat-like grin indicated that he wasn't complaining.

Rocha Constructions was relatively empty, but the heir was there early in the day, setting an example."Dad, I had an idea regarding Everaldo's prophecy."On the other side, at Rocha Mansion...Josias was still in bed, being cuddled and clung to by a persistent Melissa who was stroking her hand on her husband's fit and virile body."Erh... what did you think, SON?"Josias emphasized the 'son' to get Melissa to stop her mischief, but she giggled and continued to pinch some forbidden parts of her husband."I think Everaldo was warning us to be careful with Suzy Cogo," Alan replied seriously."Why?" Josias frowned."Because Sofia has been on alert with her since last year," Alan answered. "And she's the only investor I have in mind.""Son, Sofia needs to relax and stop causing trouble with other women." Josias tried to push Melissa away. "If not, I'll think she's jealous of her cousin.""O

Call them and tell them they are welcome.”“They’ll manage at Crystal Blue along with other hotel members.” Suzy sat down in the spot indicated by Kelvin.Felipe sat next to Suzy. “Well, dear.

At the Rocha Mansion, Dora and Simeon were talking to William in a corner of the living room about Stacy Moreira, now Stacy Bento.“Son, do you still miss Stacy?” Simeon asked, surprised.“I don’t know, Dad.” William sighed, still holding the package. “I didn’t expect to receive a gift from her after all these years...”“Well, she seems to harbor no grudges. Neither she nor her husband,” Dora commented.“I don’t even know if I should open the gift. I’ll decide tomorrow.” William finally got up and placed the package under the tree.Simeon and Dora exchanged worried glances. Melissa approached them.“Dad, Mom, what happened?”“Sweetheart, Will received a gift from Stacy.” Simeon added ironically, “Do you remember her?”“I remember, unfortunately.” Melissa pouted. “Isn’t she happy and married to Igor in Victoria?”“Yes, but she decided to mess with my boy’s emotions.” D

Josias wants the family gathered to celebrate the end-of-year holidays, but Alan is more worried about the integrity of the gifts in case João Paulo and Luís stomp on them during a potential fight.“Alan, don’t think about that. There won’t be a fight,” Josias responded confidently.“The only way you can guarantee that is by not inviting one of them. And I know you wouldn’t leave Uncle João Paulo out,” Alan asserted, noticing that his computer had shut down.“I don’t want the family incomplete this time,” Josias replied emotionally. “Carol is still in Rio. David has become a pain and isn’t answering my calls. I only have you and J.J. as my children.”Alan frowned. “It saddens me to know that you considered inviting David. Wasn’t it you who fiercely reprimanded David months ago?”“Yes, and he has been behaving since then,” Josias replied, unaware that his son was causing a scene at Angel’s store at that moment. “In fact

At the Rocha Mansion, in addition to the Christmas spirit, everyone was eagerly awaiting the Great Phone Call from Everaldo. “Mom, is today the day that Prophet Everaldo is going to call Uncle Josias?” Mary sweetly asked as she hung ornaments on the Christmas tree in the living room. “Maybe, dear,” Melissa replied, checking her phone. “He usually does it between Christmas and New Year1s.” Simeon and Dora entered, also checking their phones. “There are no messages on my phone,” Simeon commented. “Not even on mine,” Dora said as she sat down on the couch. “And I still can’t believe that last year, the call ended up at the Mountain Penthouse.” “What a miracle they behaved this year, huh?” Simeon joked. William, who was organizing the gifts on the carpet, suddenly stopped, feeling guilt weigh on him. Not only did Daryl NOT behave, but he was also part of the mischief!

Chapter 3196 Permission to Date
At Café Montanha, David was only served by another waiter since Neilton was deliberately attending to other customers. “Your supervisor lacks professionalism,” David said. But the helpers, also coming from the Uélton Freire Orphanage, just shook their heads, refusing to interact with David. He wanted coffee, they served coffee. Just that. Looking back at the table where Suzy and Felipe were interacting romantically, David felt a burning sensation in his stomach. He approached them again, holding a cup of cappuccino. “Feeling better, Suzy?” “I was much better before you approached,” Suzy replied, dissatisfied. Felipe huffed. “Dude, don’t you know when you’re not welcome in the conversation?” “I’m Josias Rocha’s son,” David replied arrogantly. “I don’t need to be ‘welcome’ in conversations. I approach and talk to whoever I want, as I please!” Suzy finished drinking her coffee, banging her cup on the saucer. “Are you done, dear? Come on, I need to stop by Vaztrans.” David narrow
