The following day, Tiago went to the police station to speak with Ivan Moraes on behalf of Josias.

The officer received the oldest brother of the Bento family, interested in getting to know him.

“Mr. Bento, welcome to my humble office.”

Tiago looks around the room and sees the awards and recommendations of authorities, including a frame of the sergeant with the late Mayor Ibrahim. Humble?

“Sergeant Moraes, I hope you don't expel me. I came to speak on behalf of Josias Rocha, my master.”

Ivan breaks the smile at lightning speed, “My wife is not here.”

“You’ll no longer have a wife if you continue with this uncontrollable jealousy!” Tiago asserts, “Will Lagoon City's justice be undermined because of this?”

Ivan takes a deep breath and decides to be reasonable, “What does your 'master' want?”

“First of all, to this day he has not been able to give testimony about the kidnapping of Vera Reis.” Tiago takes a deep breath, “He was a witness to what happened, along with Mr. Roberto Reis.”

    At the police station, Ivan feels entitled to be insulted by Tiago punching his desk.“Beware of your fits, my lord! Do you want to spend the day in pre-trial detention?”“No, it was Renan Vasconcelos who should have been there!” Tiago roars, “What happened, how did he escape?”Ivan is at a loss to explain, “He didn't escape. He made the call he was entitled to... to Mayor Ibrahim.”“Did you mean Tobias Ibrahim? Because the son has nothing to do with the father!”“Don't let him hear you.” Ivan scoffs.“Don't make jokes, Sergeant! You made a big mistake!”“You mean the MAYOR made a big mistake?” Ivan distorts the matter.But Tiago doesn't fall for the linguistic trick, “I'm saying that Renan Vasconcelos is a dangerous man who doesn't deserve to be scot-free. Is the fact that he built a factory a reason for him to get away with it?”“We'll keep an eye on him, Mr. Bento. As the victim managed to escape from captivity but only gave us a phone call, there is no greater reason for him to be

    In the Teodoro building, Vera trembles at the possibility of stating the police.“No, Beto, NO! I’ll never commit such an absurdity!”Beto grabs both of his younger sister's shoulders, “Why the hell are you thinking like that?”“It's just that I—” Vera is pale and eyes wide to the extreme, “I'm afraid!”Teresa does 'pfff' and starts laughing, “My dear, we are all afraid. You shouldn't be ashamed.”“No, you don't understand. I never know what Renan Vasconcelos really is. Like I said, he was a gentleman at first, he saved me from being raped every weekend after my dance routine... but then he turned around, and got it into his head that he owns me!”Beto shakes his head, “Vera, you never should have left in 1987. If you were someone else... why, my sister, why did you throw yourself into this wildlife?”“I don't know, Beto, I don't know!” Vera starts crying uncontrollably.Beto hugs her, “Come on, let's go to the police station right now and correct this mistake. It all depends on you.”

    The biggest scandal takes place at the police station when Beto and the tenants continue to 'drive' Vera to the kidnapping division.Vera continues to struggle as if she's being dragged into a madhouse, “NO, LET ME GO FOR GOD'S SAKE!”Ivan comes out of his office, disgusted with the melodrama, “What's going on here?”Beto addresses him, “I need to speak with Sergeant Moraes or someone who was in charge of investigating Renan Vasconcelos.”Ivan takes a deep breath in boredom. He thought he got rid of this case, “Who referred me?”“Detective Amoreira said you had the hot potato.” Beto smiles.“Let go of me, Beto, I beg you!” Vera is already hoarse from screaming.But Beto continues, “Sergeant, this is my sister Vera Reis, the victim.”“The victim who just wanted to make a complaint over the phone, without providing more details that could help in the industrialist’s arrest?” Ivan asks this question which at the same time answers, “I can’t be blamed for the guy being on the loose.”Vera'

    At Rocha Constructions, the new secretary gets up to take Josias's jacket.“Good day, sir. Was your expedition unsuccessful?”“Unfortunately, you can say that.” Josias grumbles, “Our mayor has his career in jeopardy because of a maniac. Is Tiago present?”As if arranged, Tiago, Wallace, and Uélton appear together.“I was asking about you, Tiago. Where were you?” Josias asks him.“Master, we better go to your room. You will need some chamomile tea.”“There's already that tea in the kitchen.” The secretary promptly leaves to fetch a cup.“Thank you, Pollyanna.” Tiago leads the visitors to the presidential room.The four gentlemen enter the enclosure, Wallace being the last to close the door.“What else happened, Tiago?” Josias asks in a distressed way, “Your countenance already betrays the next bad news.”“Master...” Tiago sits in the visitors' seat, “Melissa Mountain is in the hospital.”Josias widens his eyes to the fullest. Wallace realizes how his friend still cares about his ex-wif

Diane and Frederick applaud the couple.“Calm down, people, the situation was not so serious,” Melissa responds calmly.But Dr. Silvana insisted on accompanying her, “What do you mean, Melissa? All care is still little. You need to rest for the babies to be born and grow healthy. That's what you want, isn't it?”“Of course I want this,” Melissa responds with tears in her eyes.Diane informs them, “Daryl left to pick up Alan and Caroline from school.”The restaurant door opens and those mentioned enter desperately.“MOMMY!” Alan and Caroline run and hug Melissa. The three end up crying.“Calm down, my kids, mommy is fine.”“I don't want you to die, Mommy,” Alan exclaims in distress.Diane can't resist and ends up crying too.

How do you explain to Caroline that JOSIAS is the one making sure things are okay?Josias smiles slightly and strokes his daughter's hair, “OK, princess. You better go home with your mother.”Dr. Silvana approaches him, “Mr. Rocha, we were just going to the penthouse. Don't worry, Melissa and the twins are doing fine.”“Thank you, Dr. Silvana.

    At the police station, Ivan enters his office and gets terrified.Josias and Kelvin sat waiting for him, grinning mischievously.“What are you doing here? Who let you in?”Josias nods, “There is no such thing as ‘you can’t come in’ for me, my friend.”“As far as I know, Mr. Rocha, no one is above the law.”“But then am I UNDER the law because your wife thinks I’m attractive?” Josias gets to the heart of the matter.Ivan sits in the swivel chair with discomfort on his face, “Just say what you want because my time is short.”“Vera Reis’s life will be short if you keep the kidnapper out of prison.” Kelvin responds, “Now that Mr. Vasconcelos is free and knows that she was the one who denounced him, he’ll want retaliation.”“Meanwhile, he enjoys accosting my ex-wife in the street and freaking her out.” Josias completes.But Ivan smirks, “Wait, whose wife is she?”“Mine,” Kelvin responds without understanding.“So, Mr. Rocha, excuse me, the conversation will be with the young man here.

Hope you like it.”Alan steps forward, “I helped, Mom. And Caroline opened the jar of jam. She is very happy about the contribution.”Melissa laughs. Thank God, a peaceful and happy home life was all she needed.However, the landline rings and Kelvin answers, “Hello?”The classic doorman replies, “Mr. Mountain, Sergeant Ivan Moraes wants to speak with Madam Rocha. I dare not call the police this time...”Kelvin purses his lips, then replies, “Send him upstairs. There is nothing you can do to prevent this.”“OK.” The doorman hangs up.“Who was it, dear?” Melissa asks, interested.“Instead of sending a subordinate, Sergeant Moraes decided to come himself.”Melissa was going to chew on a ham sandwich, but her mouth tasted sour.******

    At Vaztrans, William questioned Sofia about the company’s finances, which are now in order since her parents stopped interfering.“Uh, I think the explanation is simple. With my father no longer here, we don’t have that urge to prove we’re always the best public transportation company in the city.” Sofia sat face to face with him. “I remember my father would always freak out when people mocked the old bus models we had.”“Yeah, and he would waste money buying expensive buses that we couldn’t afford to maintain.” William accepted this explanation for now. “So, Sofia, you wouldn’t be offended if I said your father was just playing at being a manager?”Sofia made a face. “My father managed Vaztrans since its inception. I’m here to continue his legacy.”“I know you’ll do a good job.” William leaned back in his chair. “I just want us to keep things this way now that we’re in control.”Sofia crossed her arms. “Great.

    Vaztrans, morning. Brand new buses come in and out of the garage, with drivers and fare collectors smiling in their new uniforms. In William’s office (which used to belong to Olivia), he scratched his forehead while researching and checking the financial spreadsheets. Sofia, greeted like a diva by the staff, entered the office. “Good morning to you too! Have a good day at work!” She approached the desk. “Good morning, Will! What’s with that long face?” “I’m not making a long face. I’m making a face of someone who doesn’t understand this accounting,” William replied, still looking at the monitor. “What’s the problem? Are we broke again?” Sofia’s eyes widened. “No.” William finally looked at her, with a mischievous smile. “We have so much slack that we could pay off one of the installments of the loan we took from Josias if we wanted to.” Sofia continued with wide eyes. “Oh, that’s incredible, right?” William kept smiling. “Sofia, you’re not getting my astonishment. The point is

    At Rocha Constructions, Josias and Alan faced a dilemma: should they start a war against the Borges brothers? Thierry noticed their initial hesitation. “If it’s too much for you two, forget it. J.J. and I will manage on our own. Maybe Daryl can help us.” The mention of Daryl made Josias react, “Wait a minute, Thierry. We never said we wouldn’t help you. On the contrary, I feel the same way: that truck was deliberately sent against the supermarket to cause that accident.” “Yeah, a way to force J.J. to choose between focusing on the farm or on Vasconcelos. No one but the Borges brothers was interested in that.” Thierry smiled slightly. “The problem is we have no proof.” Josias put his hands in his pockets. “The truck was on the street, there are no surveillance cameras nearby.” Alan asked, “But J.J. decided to stay with Vasconcelos, right?” “Exactly. That was our way of getting back at them.” Josias nodded. “So, our only form of investigation will be to observe how Reynaldo Borges

    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.

    At Rocha Constructions, Sofia is eager to prove that she was right all along about Suzy. She leaned back against Alan again, wanting information. "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. "Speaking of which, dear, we haven't heard any news about Vaztrans being in trouble this year. Did you finally manage to control the spending?" Sofia looked confused.
