On Monday, Beto and Teresa are sitting face-to-face with Josias, about to explain what is happening with Vera.

“We haven't made it official yet.” Josias comments, “But starting this year, we will start building our headquarters. Let’s get out of the Vargas building.”

“It's about time!” Beto exclaims, “Congratulations, Josias.”

“Thanks, now let's get straight to the point.” Josias folds his hands on the desk and looks steadily at the couple.

“It was my fault, sir.” Teresa respectfully states, “I let Rosemary receive the postman and she discovered a letter addressed to her by Pamela. Beto had asked Pamela countless times not to get in touch, but she insisted. We even had to change the phone.”

“You guys give me the new number later.” Josias comments, “What about Vera?”

“It seems like an irony of fate.” Beto says, “Seu Moacyr and Cristina went to the capital to prevent Pamela from coming back here in an attempt to see Wallace again, but my sister managed to do that. She showed up at my da

He's smiling, “Whew, good thing you're a Maggiezine subscriber! The biggest confusion is happening in the streets, with girls fighting aggressively for a copy.”Melissa wakes up from her trance, but this hasn't gone unnoticed by Kelvin. She takes the yellow package and opens it. It's Maggiezine's issue with Jack Motta looking very sexy with a penetrating gaze.“Therein lies the reason.” Kelvin repeats the piercing gaze, “What were you thinking about, my love?”“Last week, Alan asked me if I still loved Josias.” Melissa decided not to hide anything from her husband.Kelvin frowns, “Why did your son ask that kind of question?”“Because he wants me to always be on good terms with Josias.” Melissa sits down and drops the broom,

    Kelvin is talking to Daryl on his way from Café Mendonça to Crystal Blue. They cross the Main Square while talking.“And when Alan asked if Melissa still loved Josias, it was to see if we were going to walk away from the city as Angela and David did.” Kelvin chuckles.But Daryl doesn't laugh along with him, “Bro, this is really weird. Why did your stepson ask such a silly question?”Kelvin stops laughing and sees how pissed off his older brother is, “Daryl, stop, I won't let—”“Won't you let me show you the truth you insist on denying?” Daryl sternly interrupts him, “You need to earn the love and respect of Josias Rocha's children.”“I am trying.” Kelvin justifies himself, “But it's not like I'm in some competition.”“Believe me, little brother, it's a competition. Unfortunately, the game is not easy, but you already knew that when you decided to date a woman who already had two children, correct?”Kelvin refuses to be radical, “Daryl, you're overreacting. It's easy for you to say bec

She will frame the cover on her bedroom wall and spend hours drooling and worshiping you.”“And will you be jealous?” Jack asks jokingly.“No, because the day will come when Playboy will extend the invitation to me.” Veronica jokes.Jack laughs, “Don't tell that around my dad.”Veronica stops laughing, “Honey, is it just me, or didn’t your father like me?”Jack is surprised by the sudden question, “What's this, honey? No, my father loves you as a future daughter-in-law.”“But he doesn't love me as part of the family,” Veronica concludes sourly.Jack takes her right hand, “Don't talk like that, honey. My dad is still getting used to me being famous.”“Yes, you said he forbade you to achieve fame for fear you'd get AIDS.” Veronica snorts, “Now he understands that it's not that easy,

    Tuesday. Beto is meeting with William in his office, at the Ramos supermarket.“William, I brought you here to discuss what I intend to do from now on. I told Mr. Ramos that I will leave to take care of my father's building.”“A pity, Beto.” William laments, “We like you here.”“Yes, but that's how business is.” Beto puts his hand on his friend's shoulder, “Can I nominate you to be the next manager here?”William is stunned by the indication, "Beto... Do you think I'm ready?"“Of course, you always did a good job at the warehouse.” Beto nods, “All you have to do is pay attention to the other sections of the supermarket and learn how they work. I learned and managed to overcome myself, and so can you.”“I'm looking for a pay raise.” William laughs, “You can refer me to Mr. Ramos, Beto. Thank you so much for remembering me.”“I do it for our friendship, comrade.” Beto and William hug each other.*****Isabel visits Teodoro's building with narrowed eyes and strangely holding her purse.

    William returns to work where Beto was waiting for him in the office. Beto is still worried about his sister getting into trouble and the Freire family's desire to kill her.“Hello, Beto! Did something happen?"“Not yet, but it will happen if Vera continues to meddle in the life of the Freire family.” Beto leans back in his chair, “I stopped by my father's building just to find Mrs. Freire with her husband's revolver hidden in her purse.”William is surprised, “If it was hidden, how did you know?”“It's just that she told me naturally as if it were the most normal thing in the world to kill disaffected people.” Beto rubs his hands over his face to ward off anxiety.“So, how did our boss react to my nomination?” William wanted to change the subject, “My parents already want to barbecue in celebration.”“Ask your father to save the filet steak for now.”Beto's serious tone set William on alert, “I... didn't get the promotion, did I?”Beto looks at William pityingly, “I'm sorry, Will, bu

I won’t be the supermarket manager.”Simeon comes from the kitchen with a ham sandwich in hand, “What did you say, son? How was that possible?”“As much as Beto had goodwill, the one who decides, in the end, is Mr. Ramos.” William collapses on the couch.“Oh son, we're sorry.” Dora sits next to him, “Well, at least you still have the job as a warehouse supervisor.”“No, mom, I don't know if I want to continue in this life.” William shakes his head, “I told you I want to leave a legacy for my son. The Ramos Supermarket warehouse is not mine, and there is no guarantee that Caio will be hired in my place.”Simeon stares at his son with interest, “What are you thinking about, Will?”William smiles slightly, “I'm thinking a

    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.

    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

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

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.

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.
