Chapter 3605 The Attention He Wants
Caroline stood before Josias, sweetly explaining the article she had written.“Dad, please, I didn’t mean to upset you,” she said with an innocent smile. “I just wanted J.J. to get the visibility he wanted so badly.”“I thought he isolated himself because he wanted to be left alone,” Josias reasoned, as if he were J.J.’s psychiatrist. “With this article, the attention of the entire country turned to him.”“Maybe this is J.J.’s chance to reconsider and come out of his self-imposed exile,” Caroline lifted her thumb, looking hopeful. “That way, he’ll know he’s still loved and missed by the family.”“I tried telling him that, but he wouldn’t listen to us. He’s the one who left,” Josias stood up from his presidential chair and walked over to his beloved daughter. “Do you understand, sweetheart? I never wanted J.J. to leave. But I couldn’t turn a blind eye to his villainy anymore. For J.J. to come back, he needs to make peace with his older brother.”“If I only had the chance...” Caroline’s
Chapter 3604 Felipe Is Coming Back
“Of course he didn’t die,” Bernardo broke the embarrassing silence.“Then why are you leading people to the conclusion—” Melissa questioned, but was cut off.“Ah, that’s the point, isn’t it?” Maggie smiled maliciously. “People are the ones coming to the conclusion. The title of the article clearly states that J.J. is missing.”“But what are people going to think when they read that J.J. went missing OUT AT SEA?!” Melissa shot back. “Josias is almost having a heart attack! He’s not a young man anymore...”“Neither are we,” Bernardo defended himself. “Melissa, trust us, and trust your daughter.”Caroline walked into the office at that moment, not surprised to find Melissa there. “Mom, did you come here to complain about my article?”“Daughter, why did you write something like that?” Melissa turned to her. “Your father thinks J.J. is dead.”“He still has an attachment to J.J.,” Caroline nodded. “That means I’m not wrong in hoping for a reconciliation.”“Oh, sweetie, you’re too optimistic
Chapter 3603 “Baptizing” the Vasquez Mansion
...SNAP!A photo was taken using João Paulo’s cell phone camera. Helen was standing right beside him, along with Sandra and Walter.“AARGHH!” Luís stepped back five paces, pressing the book harder against his crotch to cover himself (it wasn’t helping much). “What are you guys doing here?”“We came to visit the new neighbors!” João Paulo replied mockingly, walking right in. “Look, kids, admire the mansion’s Iberian decor.”“WOW...” Sandra and Walter reacted in perplexity, ignoring the fact that the new owner of the mansion was en pelotas.“Er... excuse me, but I was—” Luís tried to assert some authority.“We know, that’s why we came to visit,” Helen interrupted good-humoredly. “You guys weren’t planning on ringing in the new year like that, were you?”“Is that any of your business?” Luís shot back, indignant.“If it were anything that urgent, you wouldn’t have come downstairs looking like that,” João Paulo pointed out the obvious. “We’ll wait in the living room while you get dressed.
Chapter 3602 New Year’s Resolution = Goodbye Single Life!
At the Mountain Penthouse, things were different. Daryl and Diane gathered the family in his study, as usual.“Everyone, things need to change around here,” Daryl remarked. “It seems my nephew and niece are having a hard time coming to terms with the deliverance I brought about for all of us. Especially Alan.”“They didn’t show up for our Christmas dinner,” Diane added, running a hand over her neck. “And so far, they haven’t replied to our Happy New Year messages.”Kelvin sighed. “Alan doesn’t call me ‘Dad’ anymore.”Karen hugged Kelvin, knowing how much it hurt him. “I’m sorry, honey.”“I know Josias is his biological father. But I was getting used to it.” Kelvin gave a weak smile.“Anyway, so people don’t harbor bitterness from 2016 onward,” Daryl stood up from his desk, looking solemn. “Diane and I have made a decision. We’re going to move to Victoria and take charge of the Crystal Blue branch. Felipe, our big boy, will move back here.”General uproar.Tony asked, “Do you think in
Chapter 3601 A Disappearance?
2016Josias and Melissa were toasting to the fireworks lighting up Sunset Village, a decades-old tradition, by the pool area of Rocha Mansion.“What does 2016 hold in store for us, darling?” Melissa asked, taking a sip of her champagne.“Everaldo said I’m still going to find even more achievements. Joy in victories, strength in adversity.”“I don’t like that last part,” Melissa joked, taking another drink.“Adversity will always pop up,” Josias said with a smile. “The important thing is that we have God to help us through it.”“Well, with the Vasquez monster couple gone and Alan back here,” Melissa thought, “and with us having tamed Sofia, half our problems will be solved.”“Let’s hope so.” Josias kissed his beloved wife’s cheek, as if sealing a pact of peace.No matter what, Josias had mentally sworn to fight to resolve problems more promptly. He felt he had been far too lax in 2015, letting problems like J.J.’s drag on to an unbearable degree.******However, Josias was being far to
Chapter 3600 Count Us Out of This War
Josias received another phone call from Everaldo.“This isn’t funny, Everaldo. You’ve already made a curse come true.”“Huh? What are you talking about, Josias?” Everaldo didn’t understand — or pretended not to, as far as Josias was concerned. “I’m calling you back because our last call got disconnected.”“How funny. You can call me, but I can never get through when I try to call you back.” Josias chuckled. “When are you going to stop fooling around and come visit me? You know where I live, you know where I work...”“Take it easy, my friend. Everything in its own time,” Everaldo replied cryptically, as usual. “How has the family been coping with the death in the family?”“Simeon is still alive and well, and more than ready to eat tropeiro beans with plenty of bacon and salami at the New Year’s Eve party,” Josias replied sarcastically.“And who said it was your father-in-law who was going to die? I didn’t mention any names, did I?” Everaldo raised his eyebrows on the other end of the l
