Josias, Alan, and Erasmo are in the presidential office of Rocha Constructions.Caio and Alfred were called to serve as witnesses."No need for such formality, guys." Erasmo teased, "It's just a check."Josias, always gloomy and cold, passed the new contract across the desk. "Read and sign."Seeing that Josias had not filled out the check, Erasmo wiped the mocking smile off his face and took the document to read.Caio whispered in Alan's ear. "Are you sure, man?""Yes, I am. Now everything will work out." Alan nodded formally.Erasmo tried to tune in to listen to the whispers, but couldn't."Any objections, Erasmo?" Josias asked acidly, noticing the individual leaning to the right."No, no, I never had any objections before!" Erasmo forced a smile.Alan felt embarrassed. Wasn't this the same Erasmo who dramatically tore up the original contract, refusing to accept his son-in-law as part of Vaztrans?Erasmo finished reading (or scanning through the clauses) and eagerly signed. He wants

Erasmo visits General Hospital and walks into Matthew's office as if it were no big deal.The nurse attending tried to dissuade him. "Mr. Vasquez, you need to schedule an appointment first!""I know he will see me!" Erasmo grumbled and walked inside.Opening the office door, Matthew was startled with some X-rays in hand. "What on Earth does this mean?""Dr. Hogan, I tried to stop him, but only if I had a gun!" The nurse defended herself."We'll take your request to the administration," Matthew replied through gritted teeth.Erasmo was taken aback: is Matthew really going to ask the nurse to work armed?The nurse left with a hopeful smile, closing the door."What do you want, Mr. Vasquez?" Matthew asked displeased."Obviously, no?" Erasmo points to his shirt, "I already got what I wanted. Take the band from my back, it makes my skin itch.""You're very fussy and sensitive." Matthew provokes him."Come on! I'm pretty mannish." Erasmo puffs up his chest like a fighting cock, "Ask my wife

Mary is your legitimate daughter," Caroline responds with disappointment in her eyes.Kelvin's smile fades, realizing what Caroline meant by Mary being his LEGITIMATE daughter."Carol, did you come to talk about this?" Kelvin points to the sofa.Caroline sits on the indicated sofa. "How could you, Kelvin? It was already outrageous for us that you were dating Angela Souza. But at least I expected you to get Angela pregnant, not Karen the Promiscuous!""How do you know that Karen is promiscuous?" Kelvin asks slightly annoyed."We don't need evidence; we know, that's enough." Caroline shrugs, unwilling to be reasonable."You don't have to worry, Carol." Kelvin smiles to reassure her, "You and Mary will always have a place in my heart. How did Mary react?""She still doesn't know." Caroline feels embarrassed, "Mom forbids us from lettin

"What's the occasion, dear?""Well, you must already know," Alan replied, his tone both proud and relieved. "Today, I am canceling the divorce."Erasmo and Olivia exchanged a knowing look, their cups clinking in a silent celebration."Thank you, Alan," Olivia said gratefully.

"And once the money hits the account, we can discuss the investments I've been eyeing, son-in-law.""Don't worry, father-in-law," Alan reassured him with a nod.Sofia, not one for subtleties, raised an eyebrow. "And are you going to discuss this with Carol? She seemed quite enthusiast

At Rocha Constructions, Reuben sat at his desk attending to business matters when Caroline approached him."Mr. Peterson, I'll send the message as soon as possible. Good to hear the tile prices are down," Reuben said into the phone before ending the call abruptly with a smile upon seeing Caroline. "Ok, I need to hang up, bye! Darling, it's great to see you!" Reuben greeted her warmly.Caroline returned the smile. "I'm doing well, Reuben. Alan's waiting for me.""Yeah, he mentioned it. You can go right in," Reuben replied, with a knowing wink as Caroline headed towards Alan's office.Inside Alan's office, Caroline found her brother seated at his desk with an expression serious and composed."Here I am, big bro," Caroline greeted him confidently."Have a seat, Carol," Alan responded calmly.Caroline shook her head, standing firm.

Maggie's office at Marçal Publishing was a serene oasis amidst the bustling city outside. Maggie sat on the polished desk where, composed and collected. Across from her, Olivia exuded a palpable arrogance, her demeanor challenging and unyielding."OK, Maggie. Let's talk about values," Olivia declared, her tone cutting through the calm like a knife.Maggie stared at her, maintaining her composure. "What are you talking about?""My husband didn't want to extort money from Will Campos, but I'm not as generous as he is," Olivia stated sharply.Maggie's expression shifted, a mixture of concern and disbelief. "Oh, it's good to see you without pretense!""Don't be like that," Olivia retorted sarcastically. "You allowed Caroline to write that article because you knew what you were getting into.""Mrs. Vasquez, do you truly believe that the decor of your living room is beautiful and harmonious?" Maggie asked, trying to steer the conversation away from hostility."That's beside the point!" Oliv

In the manager's office at Rocha Hotel, Luís and Eugenio sat face to face at the desk, meticulously checking printed reports. Luís occasionally glanced at Eugenio, his mind drifting to thoughts of Suzy and David.“How is the evaluation of the maids going?” Eugenio asked, his focus unwavering.“The evaluation is satisfactory,” Luís replied. “The guests have nothing to complain about, except for a few who exaggerate.”Eugenio’s interest piqued. “In what way do they exaggerate?”“There was a guest who checked out last week,” Luís explained, “who complained about the lack of cleanliness in the suite. After the maid did the service, he then complained about the smell of the cleaning materials used.”Eugenio raised his eyebrows and smiled good-humoredly. “We usually disregard those unreasonable guests.”Noticing Luís’ reluctant expression, Eugenio pressed further. “What's wrong, man?”Luís composed himself. “Nothing much.”Eugenio’s tone became steady. “Did you ask Suzy if she is in love wi

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

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,
