"Good work, darling!" Dora wishes after the kiss, thrilled.
"Thank you, dear." He addresses his daughter, "My little princess, I was very happy with the return of dating. And I'm sorry I didn't let you tell everyone that there was a kiss at that wedding. Your brother was impossible while you were gone."
"I understand, father." Melissa sighs. No, she doesn't understand, she is saying that just for saying.
"You need to talk to this boy, dear, from man to man." Dora frowns and crosses her arms.
"You can leave it, dear, after he wins the city championship, we have a smart chat." Simeon looks at his watch, "Well, it's time for me to go, see you later."

"Hi, honey, how long! What was it, hadn't you seen me walking normally? You didn't come to see me after the accident.""I'm not doing very well, Pamela." Wallace disguises, "And if you'll excuse me..."Pamela grabs Wallace by the sleeve of his dress shirt, "It turns out I don’t excuse you! What happened, want to tell me why we stopped talking?

What happened, our first accident at work?""It was my fault, Seu Romualdo." Uélton replies, in a broken voice, "He is my brother and we have an argument."Romualdo looks at Uélton with a cornered face and then looks at Wallace still unconscious. There is a hammer mark on one of his temples."Call an ambulance. Anyone who lives closer to here, please, call the hospital."One of the workers who is in the situation in which Romualdo spoke ran to his house. Romualdo kneels and checks Wallace's heartbeat.

Josias explains, "Wallace argued with me, then came here to take out anger at Uélton. I agree that Uélton might not listen to his older brother's complaints, because he was at his place of work. But, being fired for that? Very unfair! Wallace had nothing to do here.""But I can't scold him now, he went knocked out at the hospital." Romualdo replies, "It was up to Uélton to resolve this peacefully.""Didn't any more experienced masons try to break the fight?" Josias asks looking around at all the workers who were listening. Josias's gaze was fierce and the workers were silent, ashamed.Milton risks replying, "He was with me, but I didn't stop the discussion. They didn't even get to grapple.""Well, there we are."

You raised an issue that would be better discussed in our office. How about we talk about it tomorrow? Do you leave the service at this time or were you released earlier?""I was released earlier to find out about my son," Harold asks as if he takes offense at the question. Which father would not leave the service when he finds out that his son had an accident?Josias could have replied that Pamela's father did not leave the work when she was run over and to this day does not give a damn about the matter.Tiago reaches into his shirt pocket and takes out a business card. Josias fixed his gaze on the card, he hadn't seen it yet."Here, Mr. Freire. Look for us tomorrow, anytime you can. I wil

The neighbors are shocked, but no one could stop Carmen to ask what happened.Upon entering her street, Carmen stops and leans against one of the lampposts. She takes a breath and right there starts to cry desperately. So this was what had happened to Pamela?Carmen focuses on not tripping over any stone and walks cautiously to her house. As soon as she closes the door, she screams at the top of her lungs."PAMELA!"Mrs. Chaves emerges from the kitchen, behind her; it comes a pleasant odor of apple and cinnamon cookies."Honey, Pamela's not back yet.

Teodoro is astonished when he hears Uélton ask him how much it costs to rent a room."Why are you asking me that, young man? I know very well that you have a family.""Do you think I should wait for my family to be killed so I can live here?" Uélton asks dryly, "Or do you think I can't afford it? I'm working as a bricklayer at Silva Construction Company."Teodoro does not want to be rude, but he does not see the same determined attitude as Josias in Uélton. He clearly sees that in Uélton there is revolt and frustration. If things were going well, he wouldn't be at the lobby of his building asking for a room."You seem to have been in trouble at home." Teodoro takes a chance."My brother decided to hate me because I support Josias and his courtship. Today my parents decided to side with him and despise me." Uélton explains with sadness in his eyes."Have you talked to them frankly or just come here? You know

"My sister, don't tell me he made it—"But, despite feeling sorry for Carmen, all Pamela managed to do was get slapped by her older sister."Of course not, I'm not weak like you! There was a prize that his father won from some snooker competition and I hit him with a sharp part of the trophy. He passed out and I ran... in fact, I ran just like you, that day! I just didn't trip over the street or get seen by William."Pamela says desperately, "Well, believe me, sister, that's exactly what happened! I also managed to escape, kicked him in the 'private parts' and ran back here!""So do you confirm, you bitch?" Carmen speaks caustically."Once you've found out, what's the use of denying?" Pamela asks frankly."But, I don't believe you managed to avoid it. The way you came here, all desperate, shows that Fabrício got what he wanted. He's a molester, and you, instead of

Chapter 3148 Josias Is Insane
Josias visits the Rocha Hotel since he didn’t have a day off for the staff. In the management room, Eugenio gathered David, Benjamin, and Sybil. “Why is that mere cook present at this meeting?” David asked disparagingly. “Because that’s how our boss ordered it,” Eugenio replied dryly. “I didn’t say anything and didn’t call this meeting, so if you’ll excuse me...” Benjamin and Sybil were horrified to see David leaving the meeting just like that. However, when he opened the door, David came face to face with his father. “David, where do you think you’re going?” “DAD!” David exclaimed, extremely surprised. “I didn’t know you were coming!” “Didn’t Eugenio tell you I was coming?” Josias asked with a scowl. David understood who the ‘boss’ was. Benjamin and Sybil felt vindicated. Josias sat down at the desk, taking Eugenio’s seat, while the manager remained humbly standing. “Very well,” Josias began the meeting in a formal tone, “I’m here just to make things crystal clear.

At João Paulo’s house, he and Josias were about to have a significant conversation.“Walter, do you want to go with your mom to the kitchen?” João Paulo asked, looking at Helen. “I think she made some walnut cake.”“It was carrot cake,” Sandra replied, already getting up from the couch.“You got it.” Helen appeared and picked up Walter in her arms. “Let’s let Dad and Uncle Josias talk.”“Bye, Uncle!” Walter waved goodbye to Josias.“Bye-bye, I want a piece later!” Josias chuckled.Once alone with João Paulo, Josias became serious. “Don’t let anything or anyone ruin this family scenario, little brother.”“I’m fine. No one wants to ruin anything,” João Paulo replied casually.“Well, I hope David hasn’t caused you any trouble.”“He probably doesn’t even know I exist, man.” João Paulo shrugged.“But I stopped by Café Montanha and found out that the Vasquez family has replaced the Mountain family as the ‘annoying people.’”João Paulo sighed in disappointment. “Yeah.

You’re the one who suffered a horrific loss recently!” “But you also lost your father. We’re in the same situation,” Josias explained as he sat down on a stool. “I’m okay, Josias. Life has a way of cheering me up. For example, I’m back at the diner after Thierry decided to take his place at the supermarket.” Rodrigo smiled. “What about the photography studio?” Josias smiled back. “It’s still going to operate, and Thierry will make periodic visits. But he’s going to appoint one of the staff to manage the studio.” Rodrigo served a pizza pastry to Josias. “Thank you. Well, I hope everything is alright between you two. I need to visit Rosemary and meet Jean Luc — is that the name of the baby?” “Yes, the name of the supermarket heir. Meanwhile, Frank will be here or somewhere else.” Josias interjected, “If Frank wants to work at Rocha Constructions, count

The embrace breaks. “Let’s go to my office.” The two gentlemen enter Josias’s imposing office. “Any problems with Adolfo?” Josias asks, becoming serious. “Not yet, but I hope not to have any,” Benjamin replies with some sadness. “You know, Josias, what happened with your father made me think about my family, about how important it is for all of us to be together in the final moments.” “That’s true. João Paulo can tell you that better than I can.” “I think you can say it too. Vernon was the father you never had.” Benjamin clears his throat. “So, I’ve been looking into some hotels and realized there’s a demand at the Rocha Hotel in Victoria.” Josias looks at Benjamin, understanding where he’s going with this. “You want to go to Victoria to be close to your pare

Someone rings the doorbell at João Paulo’s house. The homeowner goes to answer after taking a shower and putting on clean clothes. But when he opened the door, João Paulo felt like slamming it in the visitor’s face. “Don’t be rude!” Erasmo exclaimed. “What do you want, you old bore?” João Paulo shot back. Erasmo barged into João Paulo’s foyer. “The mourning is over. Let’s pick up where we left off.” “Are you crazy? Who decides how long mourning lasts? We just got back from the trip!” “Not exactly, it’s been a day. Life goes on, my friend!” Erasmo replied mockingly. João Paulo remained serious. “But I don’t want to continue living this way, where fights and intrigues are the order of the day. Mr. Vasquez, you have a business to run, and I have a family to raise.” “But you found time to slap my son-in-law when he was here defending his family, didn’t you?” “Alan was extremely rude, but that was some time ago.” João Paulo frowned. “I don’t feel the same anger as before.” “So a

At the Vasquez Mansion, Alan could hardly believe that the people were thinking about more intrigues and disputes. “Guys, don’t you understand that I even forgot the reason I slapped Uncle João Paulo?” “Ridiculous!” Erasmo gestured. “You just maintained respect because it was a difficult occasion. But now, the mourning is OVER!” “Do you think João Paulo will rest, dear?” Sofia asked, sitting next to him. Alan shook his head. “If Uncle João Paulo doesn’t want to rest, then he is truly despicable. But my dad is back in town. He wouldn’t dare to do that.” The news should have been uplifting, but the members of the Vasquez family merely exchanged silent glances. With Josias present, it’s quite likely that he will put a stop to their fighting. Alan turned to Olivia. “In the meantime, we should celebrate the recovery of my dear mother-in-law!” Olivia and Sofia smiled awkwardly because of the secret they were keeping. “That’s right, let’s celebrate life!” Erasmo wrapped his arm arou

Josias greeted them with a light smile. “Where’s João Paulo?” William asked. “He went straight to his house. His kids needed to rest from the trip.” Melissa wiped her tears with her fingers. “Alan went straight to his mansion. Especially now that his mother-in-law has woken up from the coma.” “That was a scare; I thought we’d have two funerals,” Simeon commented. Everyone headed to the living room. “Is Paris very beautiful, Mom?” Mary asked. “Yes, sweetheart, it’s stunning.

Can you make me a cappuccino while I enjoy a natural sandwich?” Daryl places his order. “Sure thing, Mr. Mountain.” Neilton heads to the back. Daryl sits on the stool. “So, how do you feel after getting back to your element?” “I don’t regret at all helping my dear wife at the supermarket, Daryl,” Rodrigo admitted while preparing the natural sandwich. “I’m not talking about regrets.” Daryl joked. “But it’s undeniable that after Uncle Francisco’s passing, you prefer to stay here, carrying on the legacy he left.” “Just like Crystal Blue.” Rodrigo smiled. “Hey, I’m aware that you’re looking to open another restaurant in Sunset Village. Do you think you can manage it? How’s the prospecting going?” Daryl picks up the sandwich but
