"Your face," Josias replies without being intimidated, "I don't have anything else to do, right?"
Teodoro gets up with a frown on his face. "Jeremiah, let's talk in my office."
Josias stops smiling and concentrates on bread with mortadella, sensing serious conversation. When Jeremiah and Teodoro enter the office, the latter closes the door.
"Is there a problem, Seu Teodoro?"
"Do you still have the nerve to ask?" Teodoro sits at the desk, "I was informed by Josias about the terrible scene you set up at the bar. Were you trying to get another girl drunk to bring her here?"
Jeremiah's eyes widen and he swears at Josias in his thoughts. The kid went straight to tell the owner of the building, but what a gossip guy!
"No, Seu Teodoro... I mean, I was in a good mood with the girl, but I wasn't going to bring her here." Jeremias gives a suspicious smile,

Josias feels unworthy to receive Elisa's wedding invitation. He lowers his head and shakes it."What is it, Josias?" Elisa asks, puzzled."No, Miss Bento, I am not worthy of receiving that invitation." Josias tries to explain himself. "What I did at the bar, anyone would do in my place.""Anyone who wasn't that drunk," Igor replies, "but speaking of that unfortunate neighbor of yours, it didn't look like anyone was going to defend my sister."Josias had to agree on that. Elisa's screams for help should have awakened those who live next to Jeremiah. But the tenant did not appear until Josias had broken through Jeremiah's door. If it weren't for that..."I think you are thinking that I am on the same level as you." Josias continues to dodge.With that, Uélton approaches and takes the invitation from Elisa.

And she is right because Fabrício had not been informed of the fight."How funny, Mom didn't tell me about your phone call.""She must have forgotten." Now Fabrício is pretending with a yellow smile."Well, I don't know if I'm allowed to let you in, so I answer you right here at the entrance: I found out that Pamela had lost her virginity to Josias while she pretended to hate him in my p

Was Fabrício's visit that unpleasant?"Melissa could have lied, but she decided to ask, "How did you know that Fabrício visited me?""We met at the corner of your street." Josias smiles slightly, "And believe me, it was not a fraternal meeting.""Oh, Josias, I'm sorry... come in, please." Melissa opens space and Josias enters. The two sit on the couch."Mom is making nut cake if you wait..." Melissa tries him with a smile."Look, I think I'm going to try another recipe from my mother-in-law—" Josias stops and puts his hand over his mouth, "Ehr...

I need to thank Mr. Bento satisfactorily for all the good that he has done."For Pamela's depraved and sickly mind, 'thanking' Tiago is going to his bed and not leaving until they both pass out from exhaustion.There is a knock on the door and Pamela answers without asking who it is. If it were Fabrício, she was already screwed. But, it was someone worse..."JOSIAS??"Pamela's scream was so scandalous that Carmen came running out of the kitchen."What is the bricklayer helper doing here?" Carmen yells, "Pam, I thought you were done with this antic!""You two keep quiet that I am the one who will speak!"

That talk about getting away from Melissa, saying that I was not worthy for her, was all bullshit. Pamela wanted to get away from me so I could stay with her. She liked the body of the 'bricklayer helper'."Josias smiles again. Pamela's stunning face will stay in his mind for many days.When Tiago receives him, he tells what he did. Tiago listens with some apprehension."When I was with them to talk about the medical treatment, they didn't seem so mundane and inconsequential." He ponders."Take care, Tiago." Josias warns with his index finger, "They are this way, like spiders in a web: first they trick you into being a sweet person, then they trap you. I shouldn't have taken her to my room...""Well, that's in the past. Some

At Uélton's house, he announces to his brother when they are about to sleep."Josias was invited to attend the wedding of Tiago Bento's sister. That is an honor!"Wallace just does 'tsk' and shrugs. He takes off his clothes while Uélton is already under the covers."He won two invitations and was thinking about calling me, but I logically told him to invite someone else who was worth it."It was better for Uélton to quiet, but he cannot discipline his mouth, as Josias had asked many times. Wallace, now in his underwear, sits on the bed and opens the blanket to cover him."Of course he will prefer to take a call girl instead of you.

Just out of spite, David was taken to the Happiness Slum police station, where Dylan was now interrogating him and pressing him against the wall. David was shaking while handcuffed, thinking he might have a chance to escape. “What is going on here? LET ME GO! This station is not equipped to handle my problems!” Dylan sat at the desk, keeping one of his subordinates nearby, standing by the door. “Oh really? It just so happens that it’s the opposite: Commissioner Tavares said he doesn’t want to see your face at the headquarters!” David was horrified by the remark. “What does that mean? We can’t allow such abuse! Call my dad immediately!” Dylan, grinning with delight, leaned back in his chair. “Mr. Souza, it was your father who ordered us to remove you from the Rocha Constructions building.” “That’s IMPOSSIBLE! My dad never ordered Alan’s arrest!” “Isn’t it because Alan Campos Rocha has never given the police any reason to detain him?” Dylan asked ironically. “And on what charges

At the management office of Lafayette Supermarket, Thierry was signing a fat check for a member of the Cintra family. The man, who was the victim’s brother, was staring at everyone with disdain and arrogance. “You have to understand that we can no longer shop at this supermarket, right?” he kept saying. “My poor brother used to come here because the wine prices were cheaper, but now... we’re going to have to resort to the little store closer to home, even if it costs more!” Nadia was outraged. “Mr. Cintra, don’t be arrogant!” Mr. Cintra raised his chin at Nadia. “I can sue you for this too, you know?” “No, you can’t,” Thierry emphasized, tearing the check from the invoice and hastily extending it to him. “Take it and get out of our sight!” “You are in the wrong and still want to play the victim!” Mr. Cintra simply felt entitled to cluck. “Thank goodness my brother didn’t die! Otherwise, we would tear this crappy supermarket down! It was much better when the Ramos family ran this

The next day, Daniela was talking to Dr. Matthew Hogan at General Hospital. “Alright, Daniela,” he said with a smile. “I hope we don't find anything serious in your tests.” “Could I... be pregnant?” Daniela asked in a whisper. Talking to Matthew inevitably reminded her of Silvana Hogan, his mother and a famous obstetrician. “My mother is now retired and enjoying the Bahamas,” Matthew said kindly. “If your test results indicate you’re expecting, we’ll refer you to the appropriate department.” “Thank you so much, Dr. Hogan!” Daniela extended her hand, and Matthew shook it. A few moments later, Daniela was walking through the corridors, thinking about the possibility of being pregnant. She even placed her right hand on her belly, already imagining herself carrying the heir of the Reis family. She smiled mischievously as she recalled the countless nights of passionate love where Pedro ravaged her mercilessly, only stopping when the alarm rang the next morning. How could she not

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.

"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.
