In the lobby of the Teodoro building, Daniele accidentally witnesses a confrontation between Thierry and Patrick. Rosemary is vexed.

“I thought my future brother-in-law told you to stop being annoying,” Thierry replied.

“Ah, excuse me! I need to work—”

“Pat, high there!” Rosemary exclaimed in authority.

Patrick froze in his footsteps, not willing to disobey Rosemary.

Rosemary came out from behind the counter and approached the maître d’. “How long are you going to continue this crazy thing? Will I be able to kiss my boyfriend one day without having to feel guilty?”

“You’re the one who feels guilty, Rose.” Patrick tries to argue.

“Don’t try to beat me with that wordplay.” Rosemary shakes her head.

“You still can’t be honest with your feelings, huh?” Patrick gets tired of it all, “Sometimes, Rose, I wonder if you haven’t noticed how faithfully you emulate your mother’s behavior.”

You won’t cause trouble in here, I won’t allow it.”“I won’t allow this shitty newspaper to make fun of MY SON!” Angela explodes in anger, “Come on, João Paulo! He’s your nephew too!”“I know. But I only stated facts. I’ll only accept reprimand from my brother, not from a witch like you! How long will you use your son to get the fame you don’t deserve?”Angela’s eyes widened. “That’s not true! I’m fighting like hell to secure a future for him!”“Yes, with the Angel stores. Congratulations. At least in this, we can recognize that it was an achievement of yours.

    Days passed. Melissa was still unsuspecting about the phone calls Josias received. In the master suite, Josias came out of the bathroom wearing only a towel wrapped around his waist and caught his beloved wife trying to access his cell phone.“It has a password.”“AAHHH!” Melissa screamed and almost dropped Josias’s cell phone on the floor.Josias laughs and approaches sensually. The towel almost falls off with every step he takes, but that doesn’t seduce or hypnotize Melissa today.“Don’t try to deceive me. I know you’re hiding something. Why does your cell phone have a password? Since when?” Melissa grimaces.“So many questions.” Josias takes the cell phone from Melissa’s hands and puts it on his nightstand, “Let’s stick to something more fun.”He gently positions Melissa on the mattress, and then rips the towel off of him as if it gave him an electric shock.“Are you never going to tell me who the new concubine is?” Melissa feels a lump in her throat.“For what? For her to die like

David Rocha came to Lagoon City to create havoc and signs everything his mother does.”“Not quite, Reuben.” Benjamin disagrees, “The guy is trying to be a good person. Josias giving him an opportunity at the hotel was the best thing he did.”Reuben rolls his eyes and finishes drinking his coffee.

You appeared in this city with a lot of pomp, making a big splash and opening several stores at once here in Espírito Santo. You would say that you’re not famous here in the state, especially since you decided to take up residence in Lagoon City?”Angela finds herself caught in the contradiction. “OK, but these things can’t be credited to my credibility.

    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.

Mary is something else...“Rod, how has it been managing the café in your father’s absence?” Melissa asked seriously.Rodrigo served a baked chicken pastry with ketchup to Mary. “I'm getting by, Melissa. Josias was here earlier, more concerned about my loss than his own, as always. Isn’t he supposed to be resting?”Melissa nodded. “My husband is like that: he only relaxes when all of us are relaxed.”“An impossible mission because of certain people.”Neilton approached with the glass. “Who ordered a guava juice?”“I DID!” Mary grabbed the glass and went to a table.Melissa leaned forward, “Neil, Rod, how are Daryl and Diane?

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

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
