At Uélton's house, Flávia and Isabel cleaned up the shards and had dinner with other dishes. Now the two ladies are mulling over what to do.

“Flávia, when my boy arrives, you need to apologize.”

“You don’t help with ‘my boy,’ mother-in-law.” Flávia sighs in regret, “Uélton is 34 years old, he is already a grown man with a beard on his face – and he looks so manly with a beard – he should take life more seriously and set an example for my son.”

“Perhaps this trip is all that Uélton needs for him to set an example.” Isabel reasons, “Uélton is always at work, he only has contact with his son on weekends. I strongly believe that our trip will be of benefit to them.”

“And having the house burned down will be beneficial to them?” Flávia insists like a scratched record.

Isabel rolls her eyes, “We'd better pack.”

“We better cancel the–”

The living room door opens and Uélton and Reuben return from the pizzeria. They are laughing and talking.

“Dad, you killed it!” Reuben exclaims, “Now all we n

    The next day, Flavia is on the phone still in her pink robe, talking furtively to someone. She looks back, afraid someone will find her.On the other side, Maggie is also in a pink robe and still sleepy, yawning and going to the phone that rings stridently, “Who will it be at this hour? Hello?”“Hello, Maggie?” Flávia is shocked to be attended to.“I can't hear you, honey.” Maggie smiles slightly.“Mrs. Marçal, this is Flávia Freire.” Flávia speaks hastily, almost whispering, “I need to let you know that I won’t be able to go on the trip due to a scheduling conflict.”Maggie is surprised, “Did something happen, Flávia? Your mother needs your company. If you can't go, she can't go either, but we already have a whole schedule arranged.”Flávia smiles in relief, “Thank you, Mrs. Marçal, for your understanding. Perhaps the autograph session can be postponed for a few more days, that way we can resolve the pending matter.”“I need to tell my husband.” Maggie yawns.“Sorry for the inconveni

    Wallace sits on the classic divan but still doesn't dare to lie on it like he always sees in American movies. Sandro smiles and sits down in the armchair with his notebook.“And then, Mr. Freire... Or we can cut the formality, don't you think? I'm Sandro and you're Wallace. I bet your family must call you Wally.”The nickname itself already gave Wallace the shivers, “My girlfriend... the one I hated in the '80s...”“Let's start with her.” Sandro puts on his glasses and takes out his pen, “You met Vera Reis...”“I want to go back further, Doctor.” Wallace says firmly, “For me, it all started precisely in 1980 when Josias Rocha entered our lives through my younger brother.”“Proceed.” Sandro is attentive.“Josias Rocha had two kittens chasing him: Melissa Campos and Pamela Chaves. But Josias just loved Melissa. Melissa was a virgin, pure, decent, and promised to be the perfect housewife. But Pamela was the opposite: promiscuous, vulgar, immoral, a modern Jezebel. One fine day, Melissa's

    Wallace's session with Sandro continues. Wallace has already spoken more data about his past, reaching 1981 and 1982.Sandro ventures a question, “Wallace... Forgive my intrusion, but at this time, I think it was already clear to you that Pamela Chaves was not willing to be a straight woman. See, I'm not one to judge people by their actions, I just hope they know what they're doing. For me, Miss Chaves was determined to be the kind of woman that went against your principles. You started talking about Josias Rocha and your younger brother, but I want you to think: WHY DID YOU stick around?”“I loved her, Doctor,” Wallace responds wistfully.“But why?” Sandro wants to dig deep in this well until he finds mined water, “Everything in this life has a reason.”“I ain’t following you, Doctor.”Sandro straightens up in his chair, “You were willing to assume a child that Miss Chaves bore. I'm not a churchgoer, but I know enough to believe that it would be against holy doctrines. Did you expect

    Isabel took advantage of the opportunity to go to Teodoro's building. She is well received with the song “High” by The Lighthouse Family.She smiles and approaches the counter, “Hey, is this radio ever turned off?”“Never.” Teresa jokes, “Only when we go to sleep. It’s the tradition that we mean to maintain.”“I remember when Teodoro was alive.” Isabel looks respectfully at the portrait, “Is Vera in her apartment?”“No, she's at her psychiatrist's appointment.” Teresa is alarmed.Isabel nods regretfully, “My boy Wally is too. He showed up at the house destroyed, saying that he deserved to be treated because he had hurt Vera. I didn't ask for the details because I could tell he was emotionally wrecked.”Teresa takes a deep breath to get into a thorny subject, “Mrs. Freire, for us, nothing much happened, but for our couple, it was a terrible ordeal.”“Did she get out of here all right, or was she bad too?” Isabel genuinely cares.“She was blaming herself for everything that happened in

Suddenly, he hears the door open and the footsteps of people entering.“Good morning, Uncle Wally!” Reuben screams.Wallace's eyes widen and he spits out toothpaste in fright. When he rinses his mouth and thinks about closing the door, Uélton and Reuben appear at the bathroom door and catch him with little clothes on.Reuben pretends he’s embarrassed and covers his eyes, “Argh, there's an indecent man here!”Uélton bursts out laughing, “That's right, son, never see a naked man, not even when you're Uncle Wally's age.”“Cover your eyes too, daddy!” Reuben sneaks a peek.Uélton covers his son's head, “It's different with dad, we're brothers. Wait in the kitchen.”Reuben goes into the kitchen with his eyes still covered and bumps into the first wall he finds.Wallace nods, “I see you're having a great time, huh?

Nothing can shake our hero.The sergeant studies the Italian-cut suit of Lagoon City's most successful businessman and is envious of the patterned T-shirt and faded, frayed jeans he is wearing.Josias leans forward and places the glass on the mahogany desk, “Mr. Moraes, it's a pleasure to see you again. The concierge said you really wanted to see me.”“The concierge wouldn’t let me in, I had to make a fuss!” Ivan barks.“But why did you come to see me with such emphasis?” Josias asks as if he doesn't know the answer.“I came here,” He approaches with slow steps, “to hear your confession and have peace of mind.”“Who would have that peace, me?” Josias chuckles, “Wouldn’t that be you?”“Perhaps peace will come to both of us.” Ivan smiles awkwardly.Josias shakes his head, “Moraes, I'm tired of all this.

The new novel by Isabel Freire is being yet another literary success.”“And the Mountain family suggested that we further transform this masterpiece into one of our famous telenovelas.” Daniel has his teeth on the street, “What do you think?”“If Izzy agrees...” Melissa responds suggestively, “I hear she's in the capital, holding an autograph session with Flávia. How must Reuben and Uélton be?”“I don't know.” Daniel says, “I just know that these numbers are encouraging. I’ll take the matter to the Board for them to consider and maybe release the sponsorship.” Daniel makes a 'money' gesture with his fingers.“However, I don't think Izzy will want to adapt.” Melissa recalls Daniel, “She said it's to

    Luís stepped into the Vaztrans Mansion, taking in the surroundings with a sense of nostalgia. He glanced around, a faint smile on his lips as he took in the familiar space. Engrácia passed behind him, carrying his luggage up to his old suite. Alan and Sofia stood nearby, watching him settle in.“I need to get back to the company as soon as possible,” Alan said, turning to Sofia. “Can you help him get settled in?”“Of course, darling,” Sofia replied before addressing Luís. “So, cousin? Feeling nostalgic?”Luís sank onto the couch with a mysterious smile. “Did you guys change the decor again?”Sofia nodded. “I had some input this time.”“I see. Aunt Olivia does have extravagant tastes, doesn’t she?” he teased.Sofia flushed slightly, a bit uncomfortable. “You have no idea how happy I am to have you back, cousin.”“I doubt everyone is as thrilled. I can think of at least two people who aren’t.” His tone was light, but the implication was clear.Alan and Sofia exchanged uneasy glances. “M

    At Café Montanha that afternoon, the atmosphere grew tense as Neilton, Rodrigo, and Nadia found themselves momentarily flustered by Brendon’s introduction. Brendon, however, remained standing with his hand extended, his expression puzzled.“Uh... did I say something wrong?” he asked.Neilton hesitated before replying. “Uh, sorry, Mr. Souza. But your cousin just left here making a huge scene.”Out of politeness, he finally shook Brendon’s hand.“Typical of him, right?” Brendon said with a yellow smile. “I hope to be a contrast to that.”Rodrigo, ever the curious host, inquired, “Are you new in town? Where are you from?”“Rio de Janeiro,” Brendon replied. “I’ll be representing my aunt at Angel Stores.”Nadia narrowed her eyes slightly, studying him. He didn’t seem to share David’s unpleasant nature.“Is your father Angela’s brother?” she asked.“No,” Brendon said, shaking his head. “My father passed away. In business, I use my mother’s surname. But of course, when I get married, I’ll us

    Erasmo, Olivia, and Sofia stood anxiously in Erasmo’s office at Vaztrans, their anticipation filling the room. Olivia clutched a coffee cup — certainly not her first of the day. Sofia eyed her mother with concern, her brows furrowed.“Mom, do you want to have another nervous breakdown?” she asked with worry.Olivia exhaled sharply. “I’m just trying to calm down, sweetheart.”Erasmo chuckled. “No, woman. Coffee will just make you more jittery than you already are.”Olivia suddenly froze, staring at the cup in her hands as if seeing it for the first time. “No! I thought I was drinking chamomile tea!”Erasmo burst into laughter as Olivia rushed to pour herself a cup of actual chamomile tea.Just then, the sound of footsteps echoed down the hall. Sofia perked up, instantly recognizing her husband’s steady, confident stride.The office door swung open, and Alan entered with a triumphant smile.“Son-in-law!

    Melissa and Brigitte sat in the office at Damascene Lawyers, but this wasn’t a friendly chat. Tension filled the air as Melissa got straight to the point.“Melissa, what are you saying?” Brigitte asked, already wary.“I’m saying you need to help me with this delicate matter,” Melissa replied firmly.Brigitte looked shocked. “Why?”“Because I don’t like scheming against family members,” Melissa said, crossing her arms. “And you are part of the family. You know Leo Borges well, right?”Brigitte shifted uncomfortably in her chair. “Yes, I know Attorney Borges.”Melissa smirked, catching the deliberate formality in Brigitte’s words. “Well, since he’s not available, could you please ask him to let J.J. work peacefully at Vasconcelos Fabrics?”Brigitte hesitated. “But that’s his brother’s business!”“I’m sure you can help us,” Melissa insisted, her gaze unwavering.Brigitte sighed. “Melissa, you’re putting me in a tight spot!”Melissa leaned in slightly. “Do you know why Josias bought share

    At Rocha Constructions, in Alan’s office, Luís listened attentively as Alan recounted the latest gossip.“You should have seen it!” Alan exclaimed, leaning forward with excitement. “Well, I didn’t see it myself, but Eugenio described it in such vivid detail that it felt like we were there, enjoying my dad giving some well-deserved slaps to that despot.”Luís raised an eyebrow. “He still hasn’t shown up at the hotel?”“Not at all,” Alan confirmed. “But because of that, Chef Teixeira and his girlfriend moved to the Victoria Hotel. And David fired Suzy. She’s working at Crystal Blue now.”“As a waitress?”Alan’s face lit up with pride. “As Felipe Mountain’s accounting assistant.”Luís smiled, genuinely pleased with the news. There was no jealousy, just relief. “Good thing I wasn’t here when that happened. I might have thrown your brother off the hotel myself.”Alan scoffed. “I don’t even consider that guy my ‘half-brother’! I think now my dad will stop demanding—”Before he could finish,

    Brigitte was horrified by Caio’s rude question and instinctively threatened to get up.“Sit down, woman!” Caio commanded, still serious.Brigitte froze in place, caught between sitting and standing, uncertain of what to do.Seeing her hesitation, Caio softened. “I take back what I said.”That was all Brigitte needed to hear before settling back down in her chair.“I have to admit,” Caio continued, “the guy came here early in the day, and I got suspicious.”Brigitte arched an eyebrow. “Did you think he wanted to catch me in a sexy nightgown?”“Yes. I need to protect what’s mine.”Brigitte sighed, exasperated. “Caio, why do you feel that way? Leo Borges has never given you any reason to believe he would be interested in me. You can even ask Little Theo — who can no longer be called ‘little.’”Caio relaxed and smiled, thinking of his half-brother. “You mention my brother, and I remember what unites us — my mother.”Brigitte made a face. “Urgh, don’t mention my mother-in-law.

    The master suite of the Rocha Mansion was a scene of quiet preparation. Josias sat on the edge of the bed, slipping on his shoes, while Melissa fastened a pair of earrings in front of the mirror. His voice carried a sharp edge as he spoke.“Do you understand the situation, my dear?”Melissa shook her head, still processing the news. “It’s shocking. The brother of one of the most famous lawyers around here is plotting to remove J.J. from Vasconcelos.”Josias scoffed. “Who do they think they are? I better keep an eye on this. I asked Alan and Caio to do the same, since J.J. is the youngest.”Melissa smirked mischievously, standing up and adjusting her posture as she looked at herself in the mirror. “Didn’t you ask David for help?”Josias finished with his shoes and stood. “David isn’t talking to me.”At that moment, the sharp ring of Josias’s phone cut through the air. He glanced at the screen, his expression shifting to one of surprise.“Looks like we’re playing games now,” he muttered

    The management door of the Rocha Hotel swung open. Suzy appeared, approaching a startled Eugenio, pale and stammering. “Uncle, what happened?” Eugenio covered the phone receiver and stared at his niece. “It s-seems t-that... I’m hearing the voice of Luís Vasquez!” Suzy snatched the receiver and immediately spoke, “LUÍS! Is that you, my friend?” On the other end, Luís smiled while in Daryl's office. “Yes, Suzy, I’m back in Brazil!” “Oh, Felipe answered my call! Did he send the ‘guys’ from the Bento family to look for you?” Suzy asked excitedly. Luís didn’t know about that but decided to confirm it to make Suzy happy. “That’s right, my dear. It seems my return to Brazil was necessary.” “Necessary and urgent! Everything is falling apart without you around!” Suzy exclaimed vehemently, “You need to get back to your supervisor position before David—” “Wait, I’ve already been informed about that file.” Luís took a deep breath. “I want to check with your uncle to see if I still have

Daryl came from the kitchen with a platter of jawbreaker pie for everyone, but Luís hesitated in choosing a piece, dumbfounded. “This can’t be possible... how could my uncles have been capable of...?” “Do you understand now, Luís, why we want to expose them?” Daryl asks excitedly. “The blog that Will is maintaining doesn’t aspire to be a major media outlet: it’s just a way to get back at them.” “And my aunt continues to party at the club with younger guys without my uncle knowing?” Luís furrows his brow. Olivia always coveted him, but he wasn’t exclusive... “That’s right. Maybe he’ll find out...” William smiles diabolically, considering the possibility. “He should at least know about Aunt Olivia sleeping with Dr. Hogan. Maybe he encouraged her without knowing that Aunt already
