Tiago and Romualdo are gaping and amazed when they hear Josias say that he doesn't want to know about the job. What happened?

"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 is trying to rest, but Mrs. Chaves, as predicted, is sewing a dress that she had not planned, but "suddenly" had the idea to make, just on the day that Pamela returned from the hospital. The deafening noise of the sewing machine seems to pierce Pamela's eardrums."VRRRUUUUUUMM!""Mom, shut up that machine!" Pamela screams louder than the machine, "Abigail said I need to rest!""Are you thinking this is a hotel?" Mrs. Chaves asks in a comical tone, but the mockery hurts Pamela's heart, "If you feel uncomfortable, go to your room."Pamela feels the urge to take one of the needles and pierce her own mother's jugular vein. How can she be so cruel and heartless? She has no other answer, Carmen must have said everything.She still did not dare to talk about it and had thrown away the medical referral to the gynecologist. Carmen had not yet shown up to her room and had not exchanged a word since she returned from the hospital. Only her father deign

The shoes are well polished.Who would this boy be, is he some loving pretender of Pamela? Why does Pamela keep an eye on Josias if she can get this Greek God? Carmen smiles from the corner of her mouth: if Pamela refuses Wallace, she can try... she just can't complain afterward!Carmen leads Wallace to the sewing room and he is also shocked to see the inappropriate ambient for Pamela to finish the recovery.Melissa interrupts her screams and is surprised by the visit.

    Melissa appears destroyed, devastated, in the living room of her house. There is nobody. Then she heads for the kitchen, her eyes distant and glazed, and the walk without personality as if she were an undead.In the kitchen, William and Dora are eating condensed milk pudding, delicious. However, the sight of dessert does not make Melissa wake up from her torpor.William is the first to notice Pamela devastated and gets up, dropping his spoon to the floor. Dora chokes on the mouthful that was in her mouth."Melissa! My dear sister, what is going on?" William asks desperately."Oh, Will!" Melissa cries and sobs, "They're saying that Josias betrayed me, and this time it's serious!""This conversation again, daughter? Haven't we talked about it yet?" Dora scolds her.William hugs his sister to calm her down. He turns to his mother and frowns and asks, "Wait a minute, mom, what is this story about? Did you girls talk yet? Do you mean it already h

    Josias returns from SENAI with a catalog informing the courses available. Teodoro is shaking his head at the sound of Bruce Springsteen's "Hungry Heart" until the arrival of the favorite tenant."So, have you chosen the course yet?" He asks anxiously."Not yet, Seu Teodoro," Josias puts the catalog on the counter, "but, there are some very interesting ones. Check it out."Teodoro also looks at the catalog, and after a few moments, points his finger at a specific course. "This one: Building Technician. It’s everything to do with what they want you to do."Josias reads carefully. "It says here that I can also plan projects. Am I some kind of architect or engineer?""Maybe, if you want to specialize in that, there is a separate course. But, I think architecture is done in a college.""I also think." Josias collects the catalog, "But, I have no spirit for that. I already have to join will for this course, which is two years long. I told Ti

    "Guys, don't fight in my building!" Teodoro orders Josias and William.But, it seems that it was the same as asking the opposite. Josias can no longer stand so much rejection from William and goes on top of him, throwing punches and defending himself against William's."You want to fight like a man, right? Now take it!" Josias cries out.Despite being beaten initially, when William manages to hit a punch, the damage is worse on Josias because William is stronger, due to soccer and training at the gym.The two boys crash into the mail closet and almost knock him over. The chairs were pushed and overturned. The punches continue.At one point, William stumbles and falls to the ground. Josias takes advantage and stays on top of William, eager to deliver more punches, but when he looks towards the corridor, Teodoro is returning from the kitchen with a broom."Am I going to have to break this broom on your head or are you going to stop wildness?"<

    Simeon returned from work, and now after his bath, he is shirtless at the dinner table, with his wife and children together. The conversation tastes out of dinner."Let's take it easy. This story is very poorly told." Simeon declares."I agree, dear." Dora supports him."Hell that is!" William explodes. "It's all clear as water! Josias is not for my sister. No man is, just to make it stand out.""William, you have an inexplicable anger at Josias, so you believe any lie that can stain him." Dora reasons, "We need to be fair and separate facts from what we want to happen.""If you are not willing to accept what is clear as water," William laments as he chews, "Melissa will only suffer from this.""I think she has suffered enough." Simeon looks at his daughter, and then his heart aches when he sees her with red eyes, just sticking his fork in the food, without ever bringing the food to her mouth."For me, this Pamela is a fake friend."

    "It was just what I needed." Josias complains, "Now will we have brothers fighting over a problem that is not even theirs? And is all this because of a damn woman?""Don't curse that there are only servants of the Lord in this house!" Wallace appeals to heavenly authority."Ah, I'm not an atheist." Josias scoffs, "For this very reason I will not sit idly while slandering me. Much less I will recommend someone to date a girl like Pamela..." Josias takes a deep breath, "Wallace, if it's really true that you feel anything for Pamela, I beg you to rethink. That girl is synonymous with trouble.""Is just because she didn't like you? That doesn't mean she is not nice to me. She only has prevention with you because of her best friend.""There it is!" Josias yells, disconcerted, "This is where it starts to go wrong. What did I do to make Pamela think I don't deserve to date Melissa? She didn't even know me and was already judging me. She interrupted our conversat

The patriarch answers."Hello?""Simeon? It's Josias.""I thought you weren't going to call, son." Dora listens and is attentive, understanding that it is Josias."I need to have a serious talk with Melissa, but maybe she doesn't want to see me." Josias's voice is despondent, hopeless."I will call her. But first, Josias, I want you to know that we believe in your nature and your integrity. Melissa loves you despite everything. I will call her."The fact that Melissa's parents believed him gave Josias more courage to fight for his love. Everyone can't believe blindly in a story that doesn't make any sense.However, when Melissa picks up the phone, she is also discouraged and sorry. "Hello, Josias.""Melissa, I love you." Josias say

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.

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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

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,”

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.
