2023-06-17 20:04:01In the Teodoro building, Teresa and Vera watch a broken Rosemary running in tears, her forearm hiding her face, too vexed to face anyone. The door to their apartment slams shut.
“She accepted?” Tess asks her husband.
“Yes, my dear. Finally, she accepted.” Beto takes a deep breath.
“Bro, I’m afraid I gotta tell you some bad news.” Vera takes the floor.
“More bad news?” Beto laughs, “I better double my medication.”
Teresa takes this literally and runs to the counter drawer to get the pills, “I’m coming, honey.”
“No, Tess, I was kidding.” Beto laughs, “Anyway, Vera, tell me what’s going on?”
“Patrick has come down here in a rage, stating that he wants to break up with Rosemary regardless of the outcome,” Vera reports it.
Beto gets serious, “Hey, if Rosemary insisted on accepting Thierry, I would even

Rosemary manages to shock everyone by announcing that she wants to move back to Victoria during breakfast time.Beto scratches his ear, “I think I misheard.”“No, Father, you understood me very well.” Rosemary states in a more audible tone, “I want to leave this town where all I have left is pain, embarrassment, and suffering.”“What about your family?” Pedro gets indignant, “Do we mean nothing to you anymore?”“Pete, take it easy,” Tess advises him.“It's not that.” Rosemary looks up, “Living in the same town and walking past that supermarket will be too much for me.”“Me, me, me…” Pedro noisily sets the cup down on the saucer, “You're being very selfish, little sister!

In the Teodoro building, Teresa is talking to Wallace and Vera about what is going on at their home.Vera is already reacting nonconformist, “Back to Victoria? And run the risk of meeting Pamela and being defiled?”“Thus, her whoredom is completed,” Wallace comments.“No, we cannot allow that.” Teresa shakes her head, “While Rosemary was in Victoria, living with Grandpa Ray, she never had contact with her mother. And Pamela is living with her current husband, so the chances of contact will be slim.”“But if she plots…” Vera asks fearfully, “I remember very well how treacherous that damned woman was.”“Calm down guys, let’s hope Josias—”Carmen walks into the lobby, “Do you guys have a problem?

Rosemary was locked in her room listening to Spiller's song “Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)”, on high to prevent anyone from disturbing her. She was sitting on the bed with her feet up on the mattress, hugging her knees, and letting the tears cascade down her face.A suitcase started to be filled, but she couldn't finish it. The reason was that she had opened a drawer and found a picture of her and Patrick in Crystal Blue.“I beg your pardon, Pat… but how can I be your wife if I am and will always be in love with my dear beggar… John… why did you have to be a lie?”The door is pounded, “Rosemary, turn that volume down!

Gabriela opens her canvas bag and takes out a manila envelope.“HERE! Our marriage certificate! We are married, dear João Paulo, now I’m officially your wife.”João Paulo sits on the sofa, lulling Sandra, “Are you sure you want this, Gabi?”“Yes, dear.” Gabriela gives him a sardonic look, “Since your older brother didn't want to spend the money to pay for a decent ceremony for our reception, and since we couldn't get a date at Green Park Church, then, we have no choice but to celebrate for own account!”“You wanted a sumptuous wedding.” João Paulo analyzes her.“Wha

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! What great news do you have for us?” Erasmo asked eagerly.Alan’s grin widened. “THI

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.

Chapter 3153 Not Trusting the Borges Brothers
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
Chapter 3152 Luís Is Coming Back
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
Chapter 3151 Josias Discovers the Hidden Plan
In the Mountain Penthouse, Luís learns everything that Daryl and William uncovered about his family, being shocked by the amount of corruption that existed years before he moved into the Vasquez Mansion. 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
