At the Lafayette Mansion, Nadia wants to know from the family why Josias is against Cláudio Guzman.
As she unpacks and distributes gifts in her pink bedroom, Jacques explains, “Daughter, this Claudio Guzman got into a fight with your younger brother as soon as they met for the first time. Somehow, the gossip reached Josias’s ears and I was summoned to his office.”
Nadia picks up a bottle of Hermès perfume, “I was going to give it to you, but I don’t know if you deserve it.”
Ingrid’s eyes widen. How the daughter managed to get this bunch of gifts through Brazilian customs is a mystery that she doesn’t dare ask, “Daughter, don’t be rude. Your father missed you and he deserves the favor.”
“OK, Mother, if you say so.” Nadia gives the perfume to an emotional Jacques.
“Thank you, daughter. Your father loves you very much too.”
But Nadia seems no

At Rocha Constructions, Josias listens to an exalted Octavio complain vehemently about the Mountain family.“Octavio, I remember Jack didn’t want to invite Daryl to the wedding, even though he was marrying his cousin.” Josias frowns, “That was very bizarre for me. Anyway, do you want to explain to me what that means now? Are you two fighting again?”Octavio decides not to hide what he feels anymore, “I don’t think we’ve ever stopped fighting, Josias! OK, I recognize that Francisco and Rodrigo are nicer people, and Isabel made a great choice for marriage, but his nephews...”Josias puts his hand on his glabella, “Octavio, please, can’t you guys sit down at a table and talk honestly about all this you hold as resentment? Eventually, you will be diagnosed with cancer.”“God forbid it!” Octavio knocks on wood, “And my son Augusto? I need to raise him.”&ldqu

SLAP!A slap on Gabriela’s part is delivered with pleasure in the face of Vernon, her ‘father-in-law’.“You imbecile!” Gabriela yells, “What is this? Harassment at work? How dare you ask such a question about me?”Vernon just massages his sore cheek, looking at Gabriela with coldness and contempt, “If you weren’t an unstable woman, I wouldn’t have asked that kind of question. You always targeted Josias but ended up with João Paulo. Why?”Gabriela gestures furiously, “I already explained to you: a woman simply CANNOT help being loved by João Paulo, he is too hot to let him get away!”“But you are letting your daughter slip away!” Vernon yells, “Why doesn’t she still call you ‘Mommy’?”“Are you a child psychologist?” Gabriela asks dismissively, “Anyway, don’t worry about it.

She looks a lot like you.”“Fortunately.” João Paulo continues typing.Maggie smiles slightly, “Trouble in paradise?”“What paradise?” João Paulo continues typing, “Paradise only exists when it’s just Sandra and me.

At Rocha Constructions, Francisco almost has a heart attack when Tiago announces that the holes are ready in the sand on the beach. Who would be the unlucky ones?Josias equally widens his eyes, “TIAGO! What kind of bad joke is this? Graves for what?”“To whom would be the right question.” Tiago remains servile and patient, “Gossip spread like dry straw in a fire.”Francisco kneels meekly, “Mr. Bento, I take full responsibility for the confusion. My nephews still have a lot to learn, and their Mom hasn’t helped.”Tiago regards Francisco with indifference, “Indeed, Mr. Mountain, your sister-in-law was a pest who nearly ruined her own daughter’s marriage. No wonder Daryl and Kelvin are equally clumsy. Maggie was adopted?”Francisco continues with his head down and kneeling, making Josias feel like a Japanese Emperor.“Francisco, get up.

That SOB will lick the ground I walk on! He’ll crawl and fawn over me if he wants to keep his job! I’ll turn around because I’m powerful! Since 1999, I have the people on my side!”João Paulo can’t take any more nonsense. First, he turns off the TV. Then he goes to the baby seat and takes Sandra in his arms. The girl magically stops crying and even smiles.“Daddy!”“ARGH, SHUT UP!” Gabriela screams at a child who is barely a year old.João Paulo takes two steps back as if he were protecting his daughter from a wild beast, “What does all this mean?&rdquo
