Wallace can't take it anymore and punches William for all the evil things he's done to Vera. William is thrown onto the sofa.“OUCH! I've been attacked again! What's wrong with you guys?”Uélton asks, “What do you mean, you were attacked again?”“That harlot has already slapped me for having told some truths.” William sits on the couch, caressing his sore jaw. He tastes iron in his mouth.“What truths? You said I'm bringing my clients here as if this were a brothel!” Vera exclaims, “Wally, is this what happened?”“Of course not.” Wallace responds with a gasp, “But it surprises me that William continues to have such an overactive imagination.”Uélton adds, “Will, you are Beto's friend. Does he know how much you despise his sister?”“I ain’t obliged to agree with her promiscuous life just because I’m Beto's friend,” William exclaims.“Will, one day the truth will be exposed.” Vera exclaims in a bitter tone, “After that, I'll await your apologies. Excuse me, I need to take a shower.”Ver
Kelvin calls General Hospital while Melissa is sitting on the couch. The radio this time plays “Electrolite” by R.E.M.“Yes, we are already going there. Goodbye!” Kelvin hastily hangs up.Melissa asks between gasps, “Phew... Honey, why did you call the hospital... guaranteeing a bed?”Kelvin turns to his wife and smiles, “Honey, you probably didn't notice your water breaking when you were taking a shower! The twins will be born!”Melissa is stunned. The pains she is feeling are actually contractions!Alan and Caroline appear from the hall.“What did you say, Kelvin?” Alan asks, “Are the twins due today?”“Cool!” Caroline exclaims.“Yes, everyone, we need to help your mother!” Kelvin goes back to the phone to call more people.Melissa is doing the famously controlled breathing, “Don't worry, kids, it was the same with you too.”Alan takes his mother's hand, “It's going to be all right, Mommy.”“Yes, I want to see my siblings!” Caroline vibrates.Kelvin answered the phone, “Hi, hello, M
At General Hospital, Dr. Silvana is ready to receive Melissa.She is wheeled on a gurney by male nurses. Kelvin, Alan, and Caroline go after her.“Guys, from now on we'll take care of this.” Dr. Silvana raises her hands and doesn’t let the family pass.“Can we wait in the lounge?” Kelvin asks.“Certainly. Although we could have the company of the father.”Elza and Vernon arrive immediately.“Did anyone speak about the father?” Elza asks, “Go ahead, Kelvin, we'll take care of the kids.”“Thank you, guys! Glad you came.”“We call more people, they will come later,” Vernon responds reassuringly.“Let's go!” Silvana guides the nurses to the maternity ward. Kelvin follows eagerly.Alan turns to the grandparents, “I hope everything goes well.”“Let’s pray so, little grandson.” Vernon strokes his grandson's hair.******In Teodoro's building, Flávia and Isabel are divided about what to do. The lobby radio is playing “Say You’ll Be Mine” by the Spice Girls.“And now, mother-in-law, what do we
Josias realizes that Renan was never really crazy, but a phony and cynical guy.“It was too good to be true.” He comments, “For a moment I thought you could be excused for having a muddled mind. But now I see that you know very well what you are doing.”“You don't have to go through the humiliation of being wrongfully accused of the loan shark's death.” Renan responds ironically, “If the accusation would really be unfair.”“I didn't kill the loan shark.” Josias declares dryly.“You didn't kill, but did you order the killing?” Renan insists, “OK, I can admit that you were quite young at the time and couldn't have pulled the trigger with the precision of a professional sniper. But someone shot my late boss, and it was something out of a Hollywood movie!”Josias smiles wryly, “I don't think the loan shark only had me as an enemy.”Renan scratches his chin, “No, there was a family of gangsters, what's their name again? Bento family?”“What do you know about the Bento family?” Josias asks
In the General Hospital lounge, the Mountain family waited for news of Melissa and the twins.Maggie murmurs, “It's weird, but sometimes I think it would be nice for our mother to be here.”Daryl rolls his eyes, “For her to talk nonsense and raise the mother's blood pressure? Better not.”Diane giggles, “We can mail her some pictures from the twins' christening.”“Looks like it's going to have to be this way.” Francisco sighs.Veronica looks around, “Where's the rest of the gang?”Everyone looks at Elza and Vernon.Vernon clears his throat unnecessarily, “Hey, I called everyone available.”“Were there people who weren’t available?” Rodrigo asks him.“Josias was not in the office, he left for another meeting outside headquarters,” Vernon reports to them.Daryl shrugs, “Better that way. This is a Mountain family occasion.”Alan raises his eyebrows, “So we have to leave?”Diane quickly responds, “No kids, you need to meet the new little siblings.”“Half-siblings.” Daryl drily corrects.T
At General Hospital, Josias shows up to congratulate Melissa and meet the twins. Katherine is with him and they enter the lounge.Daryl feels an unpleasant feeling when he sees his ex-husband. He fears that Melissa will fall in love with Josias again and abandon his little brother.“Hello, guys!” Josias greets everyone, “I heard about the birth of the twins. Sorry, I was busy talking to Renan Vasconcelos.”Alan and Caroline glare at Daryl.“He said you were too busy with the company, Dad.” Alan denounces him.Josias hugs his children, “It was a misunderstanding. So, have you seen your half-siblings yet?”“Not yet.” Caroline answers.“So let's go.” Josias begins to lead them.The door opens and Kelvin enters. He has already removed his blue gown and hospital mask, “Josias, I'm glad you came! I came to get the kids.”“Let’s all meet the new Mountain family members.”“Thanks for remembering that!” Daryl grunts derisively, only Diane noticing.When everyone leaves, Daryl and Diane are lef
Kelvin, Daryl, Francisco, Rodrigo, and Josias watch the newborn twins in the maternity ward. Mary's crib is pink with a pink blanket covering her. A nurse is placing Ignacio covered in a blue blanket in an equally blue crib next to Mary.“Look at this, guys, how cute...” Kelvin is crying with no fear of being mocked.“Congratulations, little bro.” Daryl greets him by putting his hand on his shoulder, “They’ll be beautiful children.”“I am already anticipating the stress.” Kelvin jokes, “My little princess seems to take after Melissa, so I'll have to buy a rifle to scare off the perverts.”“And when Ignacio grows up?” Francisco joins in the game, “Melissa, take care, the kid is going to destroy women’s hearts.”“If he takes after his great-uncle's beauty...” Rodrigo nudges his father.Josias just watches the family interaction.Uélton approaches, scandalous and clueless as always, “HELLO, GUYS!”Gentlemen are nearly faint at the roar of the extravagant.Josias puts his hand on his glab
A few more days passed. Brazil was shocked by the sudden death of Princess Diana in Paris, precisely where Simeon and Dora were.The version of the song “Candle in the Wind” by Elton John made especially to honor the Princess of Wales was played on Brazilian radio stations.Melissa rested on the Mountain Penthouse and followed the accident investigations in the newspapers. Meanwhile, the twins slept peacefully in their cribs in the room that had once been Caroline's.Kelvin comments, “My, Diane must be doubly sad. She joked about the coincidence of names.”“Very sad, Princess Diana has always been an example of a lady to be followed.” Melissa hands him the newspaper, “And how are our kids?”“They are well.”The landline phone rings. In the living room, Maggie was present and answered, “Hello?”Across the way, in a hotel suite, Simeon was at the mouthpiece while Dora hurriedly packed her bags, “Hello, who's this?”“This is Maggie Marçal.”“Hello, Maggie, this is Simeon Campos. I unders
