Katherine was thoughtful in her office, remembering the conversation she had overheard from Tiago over the phone.She knew that Josias went to the police station to discuss the arrest of Renan Vasconcelos. But why did he talk to Tiago about the moneylender's death? What does one thing have to do with another?Could it be that Renan Vasconcelos was somehow involved with the loan shark? And is that why the sergeant summoned Josias to appear?Octavio enters her office, “Good morning, Kate! Thinking about wedding details?”Katherine disguises herself, “Yes, Octavio. There are so many things to arrange...”“I thought I had almost everything ready.” Octavio pulls up a chair and sits down face to face, “Even I know that the ceremony will be in your mansion, the honeymoon will be in Paris...”Katherine smiles, “Ah, but I assure you that for the occasion to be perfect, we cannot neglect the details. How about you?”Octavio is slightly surprised, “I beg your pardon?”Katherine giggles, “Come on
Vera is in front of the person who promised to help her but only made her situation worse.Renan still tries to make himself worthy, “How could you do this to me, Vera? Why did you run away from the Rocha Hotel? I saved you, I was treating you like a princess!”“You were treating me like a prisoner!” Vera roars, “And everything changed when I found out you owned the very same nightclub where I was being bullied.” Vera claps her hands ironically, “And you still say I should thank you for getting me out of there, but what about the other dancers?”“I felt you didn't fit in that place,” Renan responds dryly.But Vera is not calmed by this, “I thought you were going to say that you fell in love with me. But that didn't even happen, right? You didn't see me as a woman, you saw me as property, the ‘boss wife’.”“I respected you.” Renan retorts.“Of course, because you didn't want to add ‘rape’ to your criminal record, correct? You’ll still be indicted for it. I hope the Victoria Police hunt
At the police station, Amoreira is enjoying another issue of Maggiezine while propping his feet up on his desk. Ivan enters the office and finds it strange to spot the detective like that.“What is this, Amoreira? Are you following the episode's summary of 'Sweet Love'?”Amoreira is not offended and straightens up in his chair, “Well, if I can't follow the program live, I have to resort to the summaries. But that's not just why I have fun with the magazine.”Ivan shoots the detective a suspicious gaze, “OK, if you say so... I need you to get busy with a case.”“What happened?” Amoreira is even more interested.“Renan Vasconcelos drew attention to the fact that Josias Rocha was greatly benefited by the death of loan shark José Augusto Rios, in 1984. Somehow he insinuated that Josias was not the only beneficiary...”Amoreira revolts, “Are you saying that the bandit accused Mr. Rocha of taking justice into his own hands?”“That's basically it,” Ivan responds cautiously.“This is nonsense
Wallace visits the Teodoro building. Vera and Teresa meet in the lobby with the radio playing “Sunday Morning” by No Doubt.“WALLY!” Vera drops the broom and hugs her... friend? Boyfriend? Ex-husband?Teresa smiles when she sees her future sister-in-law all joyful, “Ah, that’s love...”Vera breaks the hug, fearing that Wallace will be enraged by the scandalous gesture, but Wallace was smiling, “Looks like I've gained a fan.”“Oh, you modest one.” Vera laughs and smooths her hand over Wallace's chest, hard as marble, “If you pose in Maggiezine with your shirt off, the ladies go crazy. Wally, you're too hot, always remember that!”Wallace laughs, still feeling unworthy of so much female admiration, “Don't overdo it, Vera. Anyway, how was your day?”“I faced the devil in jail,” Vera responds firmly.The answer displeased Wallace, “Vera, why did you provoke Renan Vasconcelos? If he gets out of jail, he’ll go straight after you to get revenge!”“And you will allow it?” Vera asks sweetly.“
The next day, Katherine arrived at Rocha Constructions early and went directly to Tiago's office. But the finance director wasn't there.Determined, she went to the kitchen and found Tiago sipping a cup of coffee.“TIAGO!” She exclaims, making the poor guy choke on his sip.“Cough, cough!” Tiago almost drops the cup, but he manages to put it down on the table, “Phew! What is it, Kate? Do you want to scare me to death?”“The only thing I want to kill is my curiosity.” Katherine closes the door, “Can you tell me what Josias has so important to hide about the death of José Augusto Rios, also known as ‘the loan shark’?”Tiago is shocked and white as Michael Jackson. How did his master's fiancée find out about this matter?******At Uélton's house, Wallace met with the whole family at breakfast to announce that he is going to have a romantic relationship with Vera Reis. Everyone is curious.Isabel encourages him, “We're all here, son. Tell us the good news.”“Guys, please, I want you to un
Kelvin decides to pop into the living room to cut the meaningless chatter off, “Hello, ladies! Did I hear the last sentence correctly?”Melissa gives a reserved laugh while Dora laughs more uproariously, “Oh, Kelvin, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to make you jealous.”Kelvin shakes his head, “It's not that, Dora. I just thought it was strange that you wanted to involve my few-months son in spicy matters.”Melissa tries to patch it up, “Honey, we were just wondering about our babies’ future. For example, Mary will work at Maggiezine, but will she be the editor-in-chief? I think so.”“I don't think Caroline will have a problem with that,” Kelvin responds seriously, sitting in the armchair like a king.“And as for Ignacio, we just wonder if he will inherit his father's good looks.” Melissa stares at Dora pleadingly.Dora got the message, “That's right, it was no big deal.”Kelvin smiles slightly, but he's pretty sure the ladies mentioned 'Josias', “My son came from the womb of the most beauti
Tiago turns on his heel and faces a curious Katherine who doesn't intend to let the subject drop. And now?“Young madam, please, do not ask questions I cannot answer.”Katherine smiles, smug, “Your reluctance has already answered me.”“Hey, don’t go out there—”“And who said I'm going to the police station to report my darling?” Katherine asks passionately, “You don't seem to know me, Tiago. I love Josias Rocha! If he killed the moneylender, surely it was because he deserved it. It just pisses me off that he doesn't trust me.”“This is definitely not a matter for the young madam.”Katherine rolls her eyes. Tiago is looking like her butler and not the company's CFO.“I just want you to know that the secret is safe with me.” Katherine nods, “Now I need to take care of this company’s image.”“Thou shalt do well to keep thy promise.” Tiago warns her, “No one will do business with us if they find out.”“On the contrary.” Katherine jokes in the doorway, “We'll double the number of contracts
Ivan approaches the cell where Renan is. The businessman is intrigued by Josias's proposal.“Even if he buys me my share of Vasconcelos Fabrics, what good is the money if I'm in jail?”“It shall serve to pay your bail,” Ivan responds with sarcasm.“Sergeant!” Ivan is astonished, “I want to take advantage of this and ban Josias Rocha from entering. He is not my friend or family to be visiting.”Ivan smirks, “Yeah, I know... I was also surprised by the presence of someone who claims to have no connection with you.”Ivan tries one more time, “Mr. Vasconcelos, are you sure that—”Renan vomits violently, “How many times do I have to repeat it? Yes, Josias Rocha killed loan shark José Augusto Rios, but somehow, he came out as the hero of the story! I thought taking the law into one's own hands was wrong.”Ivan holds the bars and, with a frown, digs deeper, “And how are you so sure, Mr. Vasconcelos? You seem to have personal knowledge of the subject. Was the moneylender, by any chance, your
