Josias and Octavio are stunned by Caio’s question. Should he call the police to report drug dealers?

“What did William do?” Josias asks after a few seconds of bewilderment.

“He didn’t do anything.” Caio responds, “Maybe that was the mistake, huh?”

“Well, nephew, if you really want my opinion...” Josias takes a deep breath and answers seriously, “I’d tell you to report it to the police. The Happiness Slum police station wasn’t built so people wouldn’t use it. What’s the point of having police if we don’t open our mouths to report crimes? The police won’t know when to act.”

Caio nods, “I understand. I confess that I was a little scared, even though my father resolved it calmly. As they now know that that land belongs to the family of the wife of the legendary Josias Rocha, if something goes wrong, they can blame us.”

Josias and Octavio laugh respectfully.

Octavio states, “Caio, it’s exactly the opposite. Now that they know that the land belongs to you, no miscreants will dare to bother

    Rosemary and Thierry go to Cardozo Perfumes to talk to Kelvin about the next campaign.They find a beautiful secretary leading them to the representative’s office.“Wow, Mr. Mountain!” Thierry whistles, “How chic! Are the photos making that much profit to invest in staff?”“Yes, and we’ll double our earnings with a new campaign.” Kelvin invites them both to sit down.Then, he moves to the other side of the desk and sits down, “And then, Thierry, I want to hear your ideas.”“Well, Rose became famous with cute and simple photos, reaching the young adult audience.” Thierry begins, “We can continue in this vein. The first photos were of her dancing and vibrating as if she were at a party. I think we can repeat the dose with a little more realism.”“A real party scene?” Kelvin asks interested.“Exactly. That’s what people like nowadays, right? Here in Downtown, there is a nightclub that has been operating since the 80s, called Night Lagoon. Can we contact them?”“Noted,” Kelvin takes out a

    At the Night Lagoon nightclub, Kelvin, Maggie, Thierry, and Rosemary look around the place to decide where the best spot for Rosemary to be photographed will be. The nightclub has all the lights on and is empty, which is strange for older people.“Guys, who knew I could go into a nightclub without the deafening music and drunken people bumping into me?” Rosemary asks, making the others laugh.“Don’t say something like that.” Kelvin says good-naturedly, “The owner of this place wants you to always be the party girl, shouldering all the burdens.”Kelvin scratches his ear and Maggie notices it. “What’s up, bro?”“This morning, I took the twins to the beach and they wanted to bury me in the sand.” Kelvin speaks with a smile, showing no resentment towards his children, “They buried me completely, and by the time Melissa realized this, the tidal waves had already advanced past where I was. The people not only had to dig me up but also prevent me from drowning!”“What about the twins?” Thier

    Early in the morning, Kelvin and Felipe had breakfast. Kelvin realized that Felipe still hadn’t gotten over Alan’s visit.“Felipe, I need you to understand something.” Kelvin speaks, wanting to break the hateful silence, “Alan was raised by me while Josias and Melissa were divorced. Now they are back, but the bond that was formed between the two of us won’t be broken. So don’t feel offended when he comes around to chat.”“I heard you interacted with the twins... and Melissa.” Felipe takes everything to the evil side.“We went to the beach, and the twins buried me in the sand. But when it was time to dig me out, the tide quickly came in, covering me back up. It was a rush to get me out of the sand before I drowned.” Kelvin laughs, remembering the dangerous but fun occasion.“Uncle Kelvin, I see the sparkle in your eyes.” Felipe insists, “You still miss family life. You still love Melissa Campos.”“Her name is Melissa Rocha, and I hope you don’t forget that when you’re in front of her.”

    “Caio? CAIO!” William was desperate. He heard gunshots being fired. Caio hadn’t ended the call and was talking to someone, probably at the gate...“Hello, son?” William, desperate, tried to run, but his left leg always let him down. He returned to his seat and took a deep breath.“Something happened...” With his cell phone still in hand, William ended the call and dialed Josias’ number.Josias was in his mansion, in the master suite, dressing formally for another day of work.“Daddy was calmer today, darling,” Melissa comments as she combed her hair. Now she has adopted a shorter, nape-length hairstyle that is easy to maintain.“Yes, fortunately,” Josias thoughtfully comments, “When we get things off our chest, we feel emotional relief. Your father was hiding something important.”“By God, I hope this doesn’t happen again.” Melissa shakes her head, “At his age, we need to be prepared for the worst, but without knowing what’s happening, it’s impossible.

    Josias finds the living room of Caio’s house in a normal state. The only thing different is that the sofas were pushed out so the paramedics could attend to Caio.Brigitte couldn’t bear to see the blood and snuggled into her brother’s strong chest.But, to Caio’s relief, such despair was not necessary.“Officer Amoreira, don’t worry. The victim is alive but will need to be taken to the hospital. He was shot in the shoulder.”Josias looked at the open living room window. “Wasn’t that an accurate shot?”“Before we applied a sedative, Mr. Campos said that the shooter was at the gate.” The officer who first responded to the call informs the others of this.“We’re ready to go.” Another paramedic arrived with the stretcher.“Brigitte, go with them.” Dylan comforts her, “I need to stay and investigate here.”“OK, little brother... get these bastards, please!” Brigitte asks through tears and walks away, following the paramedics and her unconscious boyfriend.Josias takes a deep breath, mainta

The radio was playing “Chelsea Dagger” by The Fratellis.Neil served two cups of cappuccino and a plate of diced chocolate-covered sponge cake.“Do I deserve to know the reason for the celebration?” Neilton asks charismatically.“Of course you can!” Helen exclaims happily, “I was hired to be a saleswoman at Cardozo Perfumes!”Neilton is startled, looking at João Paulo.The husband laughs. “Hey, what’s the matter?”“Ehr...” Neilton doesn’t know how to express himself without offending those involved, “How is Mrs. Queiroz going to work as a saleswoman when you’re a great journalist?”“My friend, it seems that you still don’t understand the dimension of the thing.” João Paulo states in good humor, “Cardozo Perfumes is not a small fry company that will pay a measly sales commission salary. It’s becoming popular, expanding the market, and winning over new buyers. You must thank that to Rosemary and my nephew

    Josias visits the Rocha Hotel since he didn’t have a day off for the staff. In the management room, Eugenio gathered David, Benjamin, and Sybil. “Why is that mere cook present at this meeting?” David asked disparagingly. “Because that’s how our boss ordered it,” Eugenio replied dryly. “I didn’t say anything and didn’t call this meeting, so if you’ll excuse me...” Benjamin and Sybil were horrified to see David leaving the meeting just like that. However, when he opened the door, David came face to face with his father. “David, where do you think you’re going?” “DAD!” David exclaimed, extremely surprised. “I didn’t know you were coming!” “Didn’t Eugenio tell you I was coming?” Josias asked with a scowl. David understood who the ‘boss’ was. Benjamin and Sybil felt vindicated. Josias sat down at the desk, taking Eugenio’s seat, while the manager remained humbly standing. “Very well,” Josias began the meeting in a formal tone, “I’m here just to make things crystal clear.

You’re the one who suffered a horrific loss recently!” “But you also lost your father. We’re in the same situation,” Josias explained as he sat down on a stool. “I’m okay, Josias. Life has a way of cheering me up. For example, I’m back at the diner after Thierry decided to take his place at the supermarket.” Rodrigo smiled. “What about the photography studio?” Josias smiled back. “It’s still going to operate, and Thierry will make periodic visits. But he’s going to appoint one of the staff to manage the studio.” Rodrigo served a pizza pastry to Josias. “Thank you. Well, I hope everything is alright between you two. I need to visit Rosemary and meet Jean Luc — is that the name of the baby?” “Yes, the name of the supermarket heir. Meanwhile, Frank will be here or somewhere else.” Josias interjected, “If Frank wants to work at Rocha Constructions, count

The embrace breaks. “Let’s go to my office.” The two gentlemen enter Josias’s imposing office. “Any problems with Adolfo?” Josias asks, becoming serious. “Not yet, but I hope not to have any,” Benjamin replies with some sadness. “You know, Josias, what happened with your father made me think about my family, about how important it is for all of us to be together in the final moments.” “That’s true. João Paulo can tell you that better than I can.” “I think you can say it too. Vernon was the father you never had.” Benjamin clears his throat. “So, I’ve been looking into some hotels and realized there’s a demand at the Rocha Hotel in Victoria.” Josias looks at Benjamin, understanding where he’s going with this. “You want to go to Victoria to be close to your pare

    Someone rings the doorbell at João Paulo’s house. The homeowner goes to answer after taking a shower and putting on clean clothes. But when he opened the door, João Paulo felt like slamming it in the visitor’s face. “Don’t be rude!” Erasmo exclaimed. “What do you want, you old bore?” João Paulo shot back. Erasmo barged into João Paulo’s foyer. “The mourning is over. Let’s pick up where we left off.” “Are you crazy? Who decides how long mourning lasts? We just got back from the trip!” “Not exactly, it’s been a day. Life goes on, my friend!” Erasmo replied mockingly. João Paulo remained serious. “But I don’t want to continue living this way, where fights and intrigues are the order of the day. Mr. Vasquez, you have a business to run, and I have a family to raise.” “But you found time to slap my son-in-law when he was here defending his family, didn’t you?” “Alan was extremely rude, but that was some time ago.” João Paulo frowned. “I don’t feel the same anger as before.” “So a

    At the Vasquez Mansion, Alan could hardly believe that the people were thinking about more intrigues and disputes. “Guys, don’t you understand that I even forgot the reason I slapped Uncle João Paulo?” “Ridiculous!” Erasmo gestured. “You just maintained respect because it was a difficult occasion. But now, the mourning is OVER!” “Do you think João Paulo will rest, dear?” Sofia asked, sitting next to him. Alan shook his head. “If Uncle João Paulo doesn’t want to rest, then he is truly despicable. But my dad is back in town. He wouldn’t dare to do that.” The news should have been uplifting, but the members of the Vasquez family merely exchanged silent glances. With Josias present, it’s quite likely that he will put a stop to their fighting. Alan turned to Olivia. “In the meantime, we should celebrate the recovery of my dear mother-in-law!” Olivia and Sofia smiled awkwardly because of the secret they were keeping. “That’s right, let’s celebrate life!” Erasmo wrapped his arm arou

Josias greeted them with a light smile. “Where’s João Paulo?” William asked. “He went straight to his house. His kids needed to rest from the trip.” Melissa wiped her tears with her fingers. “Alan went straight to his mansion. Especially now that his mother-in-law has woken up from the coma.” “That was a scare; I thought we’d have two funerals,” Simeon commented. Everyone headed to the living room. “Is Paris very beautiful, Mom?” Mary asked. “Yes, sweetheart, it’s stunning. We’ll go shopping together another time, okay?” “Do you have pictures?” Ignacio asked anxiously. “Yes, son, we took some pictures.” Melissa sat on the couch, pulling out a package from her bag. Josias sat in the armchair, taking a deep breath. William approached him.

Can you make me a cappuccino while I enjoy a natural sandwich?” Daryl places his order. “Sure thing, Mr. Mountain.” Neilton heads to the back. Daryl sits on the stool. “So, how do you feel after getting back to your element?” “I don’t regret at all helping my dear wife at the supermarket, Daryl,” Rodrigo admitted while preparing the natural sandwich. “I’m not talking about regrets.” Daryl joked. “But it’s undeniable that after Uncle Francisco’s passing, you prefer to stay here, carrying on the legacy he left.” “Just like Crystal Blue.” Rodrigo smiled. “Hey, I’m aware that you’re looking to open another restaurant in Sunset Village. Do you think you can manage it? How’s the prospecting going?” Daryl picks up the sandwich but
