Maggie is prepared for yet another showdown between her and her mother. Perhaps this is the last.“Mother, how did you get in? You know very well that you’re forbidden to enter.”“Really?” Shirley scoffs, “Looks like the new gatekeepers at the entrance aren't aware of the ban.”“Then I will update them under threat of dismissal.” Maggie points her index finger, “Now you can leave.”“Did you not hear a word I said?” Shirley closes the office door with a bang, “You're not gonna win this war. I was fired from Rocha Constructions for not wanting to acknowledge that I am to blame for something I am not.”Maggie is surprised by her mother's lip service, “Aren't you to blame?”“I said the truth. You are a whore. Always was and always will be. You snared Bernie when you found out he had money to spare. You concealed your whoredom and rose as a respectable lady and dame of society. You got pregnant by another guy to tell your deluded client that he's Henrique's father.”Maggie, however, sits i

It's part of the learning.”“Now we have other drinks, like caipirinha.” Diane rubs her hands together, ready to learn more drinks.Melissa turns to Kelvin, “Veronica went to celebrate with Jack Motta his entry into the soap opera. Soon, the first recordings will begin.”“I'm getting so curious that I'll be watching your show, dear.” Kelvin jokes and everyone laughs.“But not everything is flowers in this life.” Daryl is suddenly serious, “Mom just got out

The ladies are amazed at the menu that will be served and the decoration already advanced.Isabel tries on the fine linen of the impeccably white tablecloths, “Katherine, your fiancé has spared no expense.”“I am so happy about it!” Katherine just needs to cry, “It's finally happening.”Melissa nods, “When it was my turn, it happened in Tiago Bento's backyard. And Pamela invaded the party making the biggest scandal. She had to be dragged out.”Katherine wiggles, “I thank God I don't meet Pamela every time you mention that minx. There isn’t a single good thing you guys say about her.”“Of all the people who pissed me off, none surpassed Cristina Barbosa’s youngest daughter.” Melissa recalls the past, “Not even Angela.”“Angela is busy in Rio de Janeiro.” Katherine sighs in relief, “But not to push my luck, we won't be having a bachelorette party.”All the l

Wallace is stunned at the prospect of seeing or talking to Vera again. He doesn't have the courage and wiggles frantically.“No, Beto.” Wallace refuses, “I still don't have the courage or the mental capacity to do so. If I see your sister again, I'm going to jail again.”Beto smiles satisfied, “OK, may Vera not complain later, because I tried.”Wallace smirks, “I think you're taking a big risk.” He notices the apron and chef's hat, “Have you taken over here?”“I talked to Mr. Ramos from the supermarket.” Beto nods, “Little by little, I'm taking on my father's legacy.”“My parents told me about your trajectory.” Wallace comments more calmly, “You went from supervisor to manager of the warehouse and the supermarket in general. Congratulations.”“Thanks, but with Cristina Chaves leaving, I had to take over the building.”Wallace chuckles, “I have been informed that Mrs. Chaves, now Mrs. Barbosa, went to Victoria to stop Pamela from coming back. What if she's already here?”“Better not ma

No, Shirley is not.Rodrigo approaches him, “You look like you're seeking someone.”“It's Veronica who doesn't want to meet her aunt.” Jack chuckles.“No, and my dad just left to talk to her.” Rodrigo rolls his eyes.Jack returns to the entrance and gestures for Veronica to enter.“Thank you, dear.” She sees her brother, “Hi, Rodrigo. Please, don't be upset when I threatened to bankrupt the cafeteria if Aunt Shirley worked here.”“We'd better change the subject, I don't want to dwell on this unpleasant chatter.” Rodrigo assumes the posture of the owner of the shop, “Will you want cappuccino or espresso?”“I'll have a cappuccino.” Veronica chooses a table, “The less caffeine in my head, the better

Katherine returns to Rocha Constructions after having lunch at the mansion. Alfred appears at her desk.“Kate, you missed your fiancé's announcement. Shirley Mountain no longer works among us.”“He told me over breakfast.” Kate responds with a gentle smile, “It's too bad, I liked the cookies. But she never regretted her evil deeds against her daughter...”“Yeah, you can't defend her after it's been proven that she wasn't a prostitute. Why would a mother do that to the daughter she has mothered?”“Out of sheer jealousy. She was in love with Mr. Marçal, but I heard that she is dating her brother-in-law. Why did she do so much havoc for nothing?” Katherine scratches her head.“And how are the preparations for the big party doing?” Alfred asks excitedly.“Great. You will come?”Octavio returns from lunch and follows the conversation from here.“Yes, I will. Will we have interesting people to meet?” Alfred asks looking at Octavio.“Of course!” Katherine assures, “I just can't guarantee tha

The stylist was inspired by Julia Roberts and Lady Di for this, and everyone agreed that Katherine deserved to shine like the two aforementioned ladies.Josias and the other gentlemen wear suits and tuxedos of the most varied types and colors, although our hero opted for the classic black tux with a vest.The ballroom was well lit and Lilian led the servants as if she were the head of a buffet. Glasses of champagne were offered to guests.To show that he had no remorse, Josias invited William, but the former brother-in-law insisted on showing anger and dissatisfaction. While he lived in a simple working-class house, behold, his disaffection boasted this mansion.Caio nudged his father, “Happy that face, old man.”“What kind of mania is it to call your father ‘old’.” William grumbles,

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

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

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,
