“I... Ehr... I wanted to pay condolences...”
João Paulo steps forward, “Gabi, come in. Maybe you’ve arrived at an excellent time.”

Chapter 3462 Erasmo Wants to Help
“You want to help Ismael Lancaster’s campaign?” Augusto’s eyes nearly popped out of his head.He wasn’t stupid; he had done basic research on Vaztrans. Lancaster couldn’t afford to be careless. However, Sofia Vasquez was the wife of Alan Campos Rocha, the heir to the Rocha commercial empire. Since Lancaster’s ultimate goal was Josias...With that in mind, Augusto produced the most fake and opportunistic smile imaginable. “Oh, yes, Mr. Vasquez, it would be an honor!”“Put those verbs in the present indicative, please, because we are talking about concrete facts.” Erasmo raised his index finger, mimicking a big shot — though only mimicking.“Excellent! I didn’t know you followed my candidate’s trajectory,” Augusto continued smiling.As Engrácia served two cups of tea, Erasmo wondered if he should confirm that he was only supporting Lancaster because Josias would certainly bar him from supporting Tobias. Erasmo didn’t want to clash with Josias — not now, with his little daughter living a
Chapter 3461 Alan Is Happy
Days passed. Tobias and Ismael were officially in the heat of the political race. The employees at Rocha Constructions gossiped among themselves about whether they should choose or vote for the candidate obviously favored by Josias.“Do you think he’ll fire us if we vote for Ismael?” someone asked.Tony narrowed his eyes. “Don’t be ridiculous; it’s a secret ballot!”“Boss-controlled voting is a thing of the past, guys,” another architect argued.“Well, we know Tobias Ibrahim’s history, so I’m with him,” a secretary said with a mischievous smile, focused on the candidate’s handsome Middle Eastern features.Alan walked past them, wishing everyone a good morning. Tony handed him the day’s messages.“How are things, sir?” Tony asked.“Better, Tony!” Alan replied with a wide grin, entering his office. “Sofia is behaving, she’s being the wife I fell in love with and married.”“Thank God for that, sir. I hope the family is more at peace.” Tony placed the notes on the desk and stepped out.Al
Chapter 1581 A Little Bit of Peace
The next day, Tuesday.The police station was once again in a pink-cloud atmosphere with the definitive capture of the lord drug Lampião. The journalists who had camped out applauded Sergeant Carvalho effusively for his swift action. Unfortunately, during the operation, one officer lost his life in the shootout. Because of this, Carvalho was neither smiling nor boasting in front of the cameras.“Officer Limeira fought crime with honor and bravery. We extend our condolences to his family and friends. But he would certainly be proud to know that we captured a terrible criminal. We hope to continue until we free Lion’s Den from the yoke of the drug trade. The residents of that community deserve to live without fear!”The journalists fired sharp questions while the photographers clicked away with their cameras.Among them, Matthew stood discreetly in a corner, but with a small satisfied smile on his face.He had slept well, and just as he had expected, good news had appeared on his tablet
Chapter 3460 Saying What They Want to Hear
João Paulo made a point of heading to William’s house to relay exactly what he had heard from Erasmo’s own mouth.Campos Pizzeria was in full swing, and William was managing the cash flow. He slammed the register shut with a loud bang after discovering he was about to be fired.“HE DID WHAT? That old imbecile is going to let me go after everything I did to get that company out of the red?”“I guess he doesn’t want you confirming that his wife diverts the revenue to pay for handbags and shoes,” Brigitte joked.Caio approached from the kitchen, shaking his head. “Guys, we could hear you from inside. João Paulo, how did you find this out?”“In the craziest way possible: they called me in, wanting me to put a piece of news in my column that I suspect is a total lie.” João Paulo smiled with disdain.“Which one?” William wanted to know anyway.“They wanted me to accuse Melissa of beating the hell out of Mrs. Vasquez in their living room.”William, Caio, and Brigitte exchanged suspicious loo
Chapter 3459 Daryl, a Supporter?
“You’re not going to pull this stunt and pretend you support Tobias, are you?” Josias crossed his arms, indignant at Daryl’s posture. To him, this was entirely inappropriate.Diane decided to speak up. “Josias, does that mean we, as Mountains, are obligated to support Lancaster?”“Not necessarily. I’m saying you’re only here out of wounded ego because you were rejected by him,” Josias replied, hitting the bullseye. “Isn’t that why you’re here? You’re trying to wedge yourselves into politics, but you’re more lost than a blind man in a shootout. No politician wants to tarnish their reputation by associating with you!”“Okay, dear, that’s enough,” Melissa patted his hand, smiling elegantly. “Don’t cause a scene at dinner.”“Exactly, Melissa. I’m glad you’re here,” Daryl smiled mockingly. “And how is my nephew Alan? Has he resolved his situation with Sofia?”Something inside Josias snapped. “He is not your nephew, Daryl. Forget Alan!”“Never. After my brother dedicated years of his life t
Chapter 3458 The More The Merrier!
Sofia was in Alan’s suite, emotionally holding Carla in her arms while sitting on the sofa.“My dear daughter, no one is going to separate us. I’m going to raise you to be a fine young lady. You’ll be the next Princess of Lagoon City, you can bet on it!”“Don’t bet on it, because you’ll lose.” Caroline’s voice rang through the suite.Sofia rolled her eyes and lifted her head, finding her sister-in-law approaching her.“You couldn’t even hold out for one day, huh? I’ve barely unpacked my bags,” Sofia commented in a neutral tone.“Ah, the servants didn’t want to help you, did they?” Caroline smiled mockingly. “Good. They know who calls the shots around here.”“Who calls the shots? You?” Sofia raised an eyebrow. “Listen here, Carol: I came here to fix my marriage. You’ll understand once you have problems of your own.”“But I will NEVER understand, because I don’t plan on being a problematic, trashy wife!” Caroline crossed her arms in disdain. “I would never trade Reuben for a cousin.”“Y
