At the mechanic's shop, Simeon watches Jeremiah leave much earlier than usual.

"Did something happen, Jeremiah?" He asks.

Was it Simeon's impression, or did he see Jeremiah jolts before he answered? "Ehr... I need to go out on a personal matter, Simeon. I even asked the boss for permission."

"Well, if the boss is aware, then you are released." Simeon is content with the answer, "May everything goes well."

Now Simeon is sure to have noticed a reaction from Jeremiah that does not match what he says: a mischievous smile.

"I also hope it works out!" Jeremiah runs off.

Simeon narrows his eyes and wonders for a few seconds, but then shrugs and goes back to work in one of the cars.

Meanwhile, Jeremias is at Pamela's apartment, she is holding out a cup of coffee to him. The two sat at the dinner table.

"Did you like it?" Pamela is proud of the acquisition, "It was Wally who chose it."

"We are not going to talk about the cuckold.

    Melissa is also bothered by Adrian inappropriately mentioning Josias's father. "What are you saying, Mr. Barbosa? Didn't you know that Josias's father passed away?""You can cut off the 'mister' and call me Adrian." He smiles suggestively, "And yes, I know, my father told me who the illustrious citizen was. In vain he did not die.""Listen here, you indigestible!" Josias strides up to Adrian, "Shut up when you talk about my father! He's not here to defend himself.""Would he be, by any chance, willingly? Men like him would be hiding in a hole. Why did he need the henchmen to go after him?" Adrian turns to Josias and throws this question at close range.The door to Romualdo's office opens and he leaves. Frowning, he asks, "What's going on here?"Melissa stands up as the efficient secretary she is. "Mr. Silva, don't worry. Young Mr. Barbosa is already leaving.""Throw that disgusting being out, Melissa!" Josias orders fiercely, his face closed

    It was Teodoro, indeed. When Wallace opens the door, he immediately asks, "What happened? Did you find out that Pamela is cheating on you and are beating her up?"Wallace frowns and responds with outrage: "Of course not! Even if it were true, I would never raise a finger against a woman. There was a domestic accident here.""Who told this girl to be so clumsy?" Teodoro speaks with a shrug."Do you want to keep an eye on her while I go to the pharmacy to buy a burn ointment?" Wallace asks in the same sarcastic tone."Negative. Let me buy, your lady will not allow me to stay in the same space as her. Excuse me." And Teodoro turns on his heel and leaves.Wallace shakes his head.

    William and Simeon enter the son's room and the father closes the door. Still standing, William begins to defend himself: "Yes, I told my dear sister what you were thinking about Josias's betrayal.""Now listen here, boy!" Simeon was frowning and furious at William, "You had no right to put any more gas on the fire! I already explained the case to Josias; you certainly increased the situation to make Melissa upset. You took advantage of it because you hate Josias from the first day.""This has nothing to do, Dad!" William reacts stunned, "Regardless of whether I like Josias or not, he has no right to betray Melissa! What kind of boyfriend is that?"Simeon scratches his head. "I already told you that Josias didn't want to betray, it just happened! It was a slip that we have to forgive. After all, you were also another one that didn't resist the slut's harassment, right?"Feeling that he was touched in the wound, William defends himself by sitting on the be

    Teodoro is also tuned in to the radio and updating the news wall when a government official appears in the lobby."Excuse me, is this Teodoro's boardinghouse?""Teodoro Reis, at your service." Teodoro responds with a smile."I am a city inspector. We have received an anonymous report that this place is irregular. Can we verify if the documentation for this place is in order?"Teodoro breaks his smile and opens his eyes wide. What does it mean? Virtually no Happiness Slum house is properly legalized since the neighborhood was not planned by the City. Why did the City Hall go to collect documentation just from him?"Tax Mister, I think there is a misunderstanding." He tries to justify himself."The mistake was for the City to allow this totally irregular favela." The inspector replies frowning and intimidating, "The correct thing would be for the City to expel all of you from here; because the land was an old farm that was sold to the City. Th

    "Calm down, young man," Simeon chuckles when he sees Jeremiah choking on his sip of water, "it's not for that much. I think you understand me.""It's just that these things are not heard every day." Jeremiah still doesn't say that he knows Josias and the whole story."Yes, and I am even more relieved to know that Josias has moved away from the shameless girl and is living in Green Park. So there will be no more mistakes." Simeon finishes drinking the water and discards the disposable cup in the trash.Jeremiah smiles mischievously. He concludes that Simeon just wants Melissa to marry Josias to enjoy the money Josias is earning. So he is very willing to forgive his son-in-law's 'mistakes'.***Moacyr is in the living room with his arms crossed and a frown waiting for Adrian to enter the house.

    Pamela is in no way able to get Josias to be at peace with her. Because of the slander, he had to leave the boardinghouse and the favela as if he were a molester."Josias, everything would be easier if you assumed what is yours." She still tries to bring up the subject, approaching him and speaking softly.With each step that Pamela approaches, Josias moves away. "You are crazy, girl, you need treatment!""I need a man who loves me, just as I love you. Leave Melissa and marry me, Josias, let's raise our son together!"At this moment Wallace was about to leave, but he is faced with the voices and decides to listen from this point. Pamela has her back to the corridor and Josias doesn't see him, because Wallace is hiding."Stop saying the son is mine! We never made love, Pamela! You lie so many times that you come to believe the lie." Josias is firm and tough."Don't be cruel, Josias, don't forget the countless burning nights of love and passio

Teodoro gestures for the young man to calm down.Josias takes a deep breath, controlling himself. "Sorry, Teodoro, you now need to explain to me why you think Jeremiah could be the scoundrel informer."Teodoro tells the whole story about having spotted Jeremias leaving Pamela's apartment and how Jeremias got very angry and saying threats to the landlord.Josias promised to calm down, but he became more furious after the story was told.

    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

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

    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

    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

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

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

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.

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.
