Afterward, she intends to bring together her junior writers to break down the plot into several episodes, among other preparations.Before that happens, Dora shows up at her house, “Is anyone home?”“Come in, Dora!” Isabel calls her.Dora finds her longtime friend typing intently, “Oh, but I’m going to disturb you like this...”Isabel stops typing, “Not exactly. How can I be of help, my friend?”“Melissa informed you?” Dora approaches the computer, “We’re throwing Nadia and Rod’s baby shower. Do you want to help us with that wonderful walnut cake that only you know how to make?”Isabel feels her stomach growl at the prospect of eating walnut cake, “Hmm... Sure, let me handle it. It’ll be a pleasure.”“I imagine Francisco is very excited. He will be a grandfather. What about Jack and Veronica?”Isabel shakes her hea

Octavio almost went deaf from his crazy wife’s scream.“Jane, keep your voice down. I’m in my office.”“And?” Jane cackled, “So I can speak in the desired tone!”“No, my helpers will listen to you!” Octavio reasons with her, “Why do you want me to talk to Josias?”“Elza doesn’t want to recommend me as a replacement!” Jane screams at the top of her lungs, “She’s thinking of other candidates to be the hotel’s next manager!”“And that’s what she’s supposed to do, it’s her prerogative.” Octavio explains patiently, “She can’t give the impression that you’re the favorite. It needs to be fair.”“Fair? Is there anyone more qualified than me?” Jane disdains the others.Octavio tsk with his tongue, “Honey, you took the promotion for granted just because we are friends with Josias. It’s not quite like that. Josias is my best friend, but I won’t take advantage of the bond for personal favors. I hope Elza isn’t picking up on your screams, or she’ll become even more convinced that you’re not qualif

In Jane’s office, she felt extremely offended by Elza’s question.“How absurd, woman! Is it so difficult to understand that I want to be your replacement? I didn’t think I needed to be more obvious, I was afraid of scaring you with my frankness!”Elza shakes her head, “I’m sorry, Jane. But I couldn’t just give you my position without figuring out if you’re ready. And remember: my son will have the final say.”“You can put in a good word of me to Josias.” Jane blinks.“He knows you’ve been my helper since the beginning.” Elza explains patiently, “But you’re still young, and you have Augusto to raise. What would happen if you got pregnant again?”“I won’t be, I swear!” Jane pleads, “And as for Augusto, well, he’s already big, he’s already going to school...”“I know. But when I started working as general manager of this hotel, the fact that João Paulo was already finishing high school and going to college made it easier for me. Don’t worry, Jane, it’s not decided yet. But if you don’t h

At Crystal Blue, Cláudio and Caroline talk in his office.“Tell me what ails you, my friend.”“Did you change the decor?” Caroline narrows her eyes.“I didn’t know you used to come to this office when the other one worked here.”Caroline smiles slightly, “I must have come in once or twice when I was talking to Felipe. Anyway, I wanted to know what happened with the photos. Did you get any more?”“No.” Cláudio smiles lightly.“And you continued to pervert Mrs. Vasquez?”“Neither. It seems like she got scared and stopped lusting after me.”Cláudio turns on the computer and sits at the desk, “What about you, Carol? How did your situation with Sofia resolve?”“We still haven’t spoken, but my father said we should cool down and make up later,” Caroline says with displeasure.“Your father is a wise man.” Cláudio smiles kindly.“He should have been wise enough to realize that the Vasquez family cannot be trusted.” Caroline crosses her arms, “If he knew the truth... He said he would call off

In the canteen of the Teodoro building, Rosemary and Thierry continue to talk.“Rose, can we start our story again?” Thierry asks lovingly, “Last year, Caroline showed up at my house informing me that you asked for me. That means you don’t hate me, correct?”“No. Time has helped me forgive and forget.” Rosemary smiles.“Excellent. What about Patrick?”Rosemary is wary, “I haven’t heard good things about him. I heard he’s the new maître d’ at the Crystal Blue. My congratulations to him.”Thierry nods, “Yes, he is very well off. But he doesn’t care about you. I’m just afraid he’ll change his mind when he sees us together.”“If that happens, we won’t care.” Rosemary frowns, “I’m not going to give reason to those who only value it when they lose it.”“OK. Let’s take it slow for now. How about dinner at my mansion? Maybe my parents would like to get to know you better.”“It will be a pleasure. I’ll be waiting.”Rosemary and Thierry stand still for a while, and then he decides to give her a

Josias enters Rocha Constructions and is greeted by all the employees. “Hello, Mr. Rocha! Congratulations!” “We wish your beautiful daughter lots of happiness!” “When is the engagement date?” Josias is amazed. “Engagement? They’re still dating, folks.” The employees laugh, thinking Josias is joking. But Josias is genuinely surprised to hear everyone talking about Reuben and Caroline more effusively. Didn’t they already know the couple was an item? As he passes Reuben’s desk, Josias nods, beckoning him to come in. “Uncle Josias, I—” “Any updates on you and Caroline?” Josias asks, heading straight to the drinks table. Maybe he needs a drink... “I formalized our relationship in the most dramatic, traditional, and cheesy way there is. I felt like I was in Grandma Isabel’s soap opera.” Reuben jokes. Josias pours himself some brandy. “Very good. Here’s to you and my little princess.” Reuben doesn’t dare help himself. “Is everything okay, uncle?” Josias takes a few sips, “Everyth

This apartment is still well-maintained and has three bedrooms, one for each. You’ll have privacy and live together at the same time. And the urban view is beautiful...”Reuben leans against the window, “Really, the view is nice.”“From here, I can walk to the hotel.” Benjamin ponders.“If I leave fifteen minutes early, I’ll get to Café Montanha.” Neilton opines.“And I can count on Uncle Josias’s transportation service.” Reuben blinks, feeling like the boss.Bianca takes the opportunity to admire the appearance of the three hot and attractive young men who will live together. She feels like she is in paradise!“We’ll keep looking.

At the Vasquez mansion, Alan waits for Sofia to answer his question.“Come on, Sofia! Tell me you’re trying to ruin my little sister’s date!” Alan exclaims impatiently.“It’s you saying it, my love!” Sofia replies scared.“Ah, but do you think that being silent is proof that you didn’t mention it? On the contrary, Sofia! Your silence was your confession.”“Mom, please help me!” Sofia pleads, finishing down the stairs.Olivia turns seriously to Alan. “Alan, you must have misunderstood. Sofia was supposed to be talking about an episode of ‘Love Spins the World’.”Alan shakes his head, “I don’t believe it! You guys really feel entitled to interfere in my sister’s dating life! And I came here to encourage peace.”Sofia clings to his clothes, “No, baby, NO!”“Don’t you want to make up with Carol?” Alan’s eyes widen.“I don’t even want to invite her to our wedding!” Sofia confesses, frowning, “You wanted the truth? Well then, there you have it!”Alan pulls away from Sofia in disgust, “I’d b

Chapter 3237 Mary’s Quinceañera (1)
That evening, the Rocha Events Hall was elegantly lit, and the soft sound of a waltz floated through the air.It was a joint celebration for Ignacio and Mary Campos Mountain. But more than just a birthday party, it marked Mary’s fifteenth birthday — her quinceañera.Because of that, the entire hall had been reserved for this important and unforgettable occasion.At the center of it all, Mary danced gracefully in a flowing, elegant pink gown that made her look like a miniature bride. Her dance partner, a close friend of sixteen, guided her with surprising poise.Around them, seven other couples glided across the floor, including Ignacio, who partnered with a girl from a well-known family. Henrique, as the cousin of the twins, also had his partner following the waltz.From the sidelines, Kelvin and Karen watched the scene with quiet pride, while Melissa and Josias — especially Melissa, mother of the birthday twins — took in the moment with emotion.“Look at your daughter,” Josias whispe
Chapter 3236 Support Your Wife
In the Mountain Penthouse living room, the atmosphere was far from serene. The heated discussion between Suzy and her boyfriend’s family showed no sign of calming down.“I can’t believe this!” Suzy exclaimed, her voice tight with indignation. “You all actually think I’m in love with Luís Vasquez!”Karen raised an eyebrow, her tone biting. “You’re not?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Suzy barked back. “I’m in love with Felipe — I love him!”Kelvin, unmoved, folded his arms. “Just not as much as you love your money and your... ‘investments.’”Diane lifted a hand, hoping to bring reason to the conversation. “Suzy, I’ve turned a deaf ear to all the gossip about you. I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane... I don’t know why Felipe insists on believing the lies João Paulo QUEIRÓS keeps spinning!”Daryl’s expression darkened. “So the problem lies with the journalist, then. Looks like I’ll have to deal with
Chapter 3235 I Don’t Want Cursed Money
The Mountain Penthouse living room was filled with tension that morning. Everyone was taken aback as the truth behind the fight that had sent Felipe to the hospital came to light.“Well, if that’s how it is...” Daryl began, clearly processing the news.Diane, urgent to defend her son, jumped in. “But wait, why exactly did Felipe and Luís decide to fight?”Suzy’s lips curled into a sly smile. It was time to drop the bomb.“According to my uncle Eugenio,” she began, “Felipe barged into his office and announced that he wanted to break up with me — because my uncle was happy about me being featured on the cover of Maggiezine.”Everyone looked even more stunned.“Wait, what does that have to do with anything?” Kelvin asked, frowning.Suzy explained, “Felipe saw my uncle thanking Luís for sort of encouraging me to accept the interview with Maggie.”Daryl exhaled sharply. “So my son just had a jealous outburst. That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you
Chapter 3234 The Girlfriend Showed Up
At the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin and Daryl were relieved that everything had turned out okay. Diane and Karen were nearby, on the sofas, chatting cheerfully. “God was merciful and allowed our son to live a few more years,” Diane declared. “Now, you both need to rest,” Karen patted Kelvin’s chest. “We slept beautifully while you two were in that sterile lounge.” Kelvin yawned once more. “I think I’ll take my dear wife’s advice; what do you think, Daryl?” “Who said we own the place?” Daryl yawned as well. The ladies laughed at their funny husbands. The doorbell rang. Tony passed through the living room, offering, “I’ll get it.” When Tony opened the door, he was surprised by the visitor. “Miss Cogo?” “How funny, you don’t call me by my first name. Did Felipe manage to talk to you before the coma?” Suzy asked bitterly, without smiling. Tony reacted perplexed by this torrent of unfriendly words. “Uh... Come in, please.” Suzy entered, ready for the storm. “Who is it, big brothe
Chapter 3233 A Surprising Report
The next day, Matthew Hogan entered the General Hospital lounge and found Daryl and Kelvin incredibly exhausted but hopeful. “Doctor, how did it go?” Daryl nearly jumped on Matthew. “Calm down, the patient survived the surgery. It’s just a matter of time before he’s back in his room.” “Oh, thank God!” Kelvin cheered. Daryl couldn’t resist and hugged Matthew. “Thank you so much, doctor!” Matthew smiled, somewhat awkwardly, but aware that it was a common reaction. “You’re welcome, we did everything we could.” “Yeah, I understand.” Daryl released the hug, rubbing his eyes — whether from sleep or wiping away a tear. “It’s going to take a little while. I suggest you both go home and rest a bit,” Matthew said. “I think we’ll do just that,” Kelvin yawned. “Now that the danger has passed, I think I deserve it. Doctor, let us know if anything happens,” Daryl requested, patting the doctor’s shoulder. “I’ll do. And congratulations to you both.” Matthew left the lounge. Kelvin yawned a
Chapter 3232 The Detective I Trust
At the Rocha Hotel, Eugenio and Jake are talking to Suzy about what is happening. Jake was upset. “Suzy, haven’t you gone to visit your boyfriend yet?” “I don’t know if it’s a good idea to show up there right now.” Suzy lowered her head. “The fight happened... here?” Eugenio responded indignantly, “Yes, in my beloved living room. Luís lost his temper when Felipe called him ‘Spanish Stallion.’“ Suzy lifted her head, completely changing her posture. “WHAT? Well, then, the beating didn’t come out of nowhere!” “Come on, sis, don’t go along with this,” Jake advised her. “They’re saying Felipe’s condition is serious.” “Serious is Luís getting teased every single day by the nickname he despises the most!” Suzy exclaimed. Eugenio decided to tell the whole story, “Suzy, there’s a lot more you don’t know.” “Tell me, uncle!” “Felipe, before being assaulted, said he wouldn’t continue dating you, claiming that the Cogo family would always prefer Luís.” Suzy reacted, paralyzed by this inf

Rodrigo and Nadia entered the General Hospital lounge, finding Karen and Diane. “We’re here! Where’s Daryl?” Nadia approached the couch. “He went to check with Kelvin for more information,” Diane sniffed. “Thanks for coming.” “We wouldn’t be family if we didn’t show up,” Nadia sat down near them. “And I’m a mother too.” Rodrigo poured himself some coffee. “Any news?” Diane took a deep breath. “Felipe is still awake. Dr. Hogan said the tests revealed a concussion, and they’re now deciding if surgery will be necessary.” “How horrible.” Nadia shuddered. “Well, whether surgery is necessary or not, I hope everything goes well for Felipe.” “Now, I find it strange that Suzy still hasn’t shown up!” Karen frowned. “Did you see her outside?” “No. We thought she was inside or with Daryl,” Nadia replied honestly. Diane shook her head. “No, guys, I can’t believe Suzy would choose to work or handle investments instead of checking on her boyfriend!” Rodrigo took a sip – the coffee wasn’t a
Chapter 3230 The Lady of Lagoon City Makes a Powerful Speech
At Vaztrans, William swallowed hard before answering Sofia’s question.“Sofia, your cousin really went too far this time,” he began cautiously.“What do you mean?” Sofia narrowed her eyes. “I know Luís can be a bit difficult, but—”“Yes, the hot Spanish blood speaks louder sometimes, right?” William took a deep breath. “Luís assaulted Felipe. Daryl rushed to the hospital.”Sofia reacted with her mouth open, holding her breath.Then she composed herself. “How could he do such a thing?”“Do you want to hear my guess?” William asked with a sly smile.“No! It can’t be because of Suzy Cogo!” Sofia ran her hands through her hair as if to pull it out.“It seems we were wrong to have accepted her partnership, huh?” William shook his head.“If she starts to tarnish Vaztrans’ reputation...” Sofia paced around the office. “First, her statement: her reluctance to raise the salary of the employees here. Now, this love triangle that I thought was over...”“Everaldo warned us to be careful with her,”
Chapter 3229 Despair at the General Hospital
At Vaztrans, William and Daryl were discussing the repercussions of Suzy’s article in Maggiezine.“People are accepting Suzy’s apologies and explanations,” William broke the silence, holding a copy.Daryl pursed his lips. “Whatever. Sometimes I think João Paulo is lurking, ready to pounce on anything to throw us into confusion.”“But the salary bonus we promised will be paid, right?” William smirked.“Of course, what choice do we have?” Daryl pointed to the magazine. “She made it clear in the interview. We’re not going to contradict her, are we?”William laughed ironically. “It seems Suzy is going to be the kind of person who does anything to get out of trouble, even if it means contradicting herself.”Daryl’s cell phone rang, and he answered, seeing it was Diane. “My dear is calling. Hello, Di?”Diane was at the hospital entrance, trying to be strong. “Hello, Daryl. We need you at the hospital.”“What happened?” Daryl’s eyes widened.“Luís Vasquez beat our son to a pulp, as they say,
