Romualdo is wearing a gray double-breasted suit with two buttons and a sober tie. Josias and Tiago hardly believe that this old man wore a cement-stained shirt and jeans in the buildings.
"The rumor is no longer a rumor, guys." Romualdo starts the meeting, "Yes, the City intends to make the coastal strip of our city habitable. At the moment they are going to open a new neighborhood called Sunset Village, aimed at the upper class. There is a demand for residents of this type in our city."
"And when these high society residents come across our construction company..." Tiago barely manages to finish his sentence, wondering how much money he will earn.
"However, my fellows," Romualdo continues to speak seriously, "We cannot be negligent with these clients. Tiago, we will need a legal sector for our company, in case we find a client as problematic as Adrian Ba

The man wore glasses and had black hair; his white skin was sunburned. The boy adjusts his glasses when he sees who he was and approaches."Josias? Josias Rocha?"Josias shakes his head looking for whoever called him, and when he finds the boy, he smiles in recognition: "Octavio Motta!"The two are close and Octavio reaches out to Josias to greet him. Both are grinning.Octavio asks curiously: "Dude, how are you? We haven't seen each other since—""Since my father was murdered and I ran away from Rainbow Garden, I know." Josias adds, already intending to change the subject, "And you, how are you doing?"Octavio notices the change of subject and does not want to force Josias.

"Is she going to be pregnant with you again?""Not so soon, obviously," Wallace responds, feeling offended.The supervisor disagrees with his thoughts. In his opinion, muscular and robust men like Wallace usually father at least five children.Wallace takes advantage of the supervisor's silence and adds: "And I also need another job at this supermarket. Otherwise, I will have to resign."The supervisor smiles very slightly and raises an eyebrow. How daring is this boy!

Later, Tiago is talking to Romualdo about why they should hire Octavio. Romualdo has a skeptical look on his face while Tiago speaks excitedly."The boy is leaving college with new and modern ideas." Tiago argues with gestures, "And it would be a good incentive for him if he has a company that supports him so soon.""Is he not too busy with the monograph?" Romualdo asks with a slight smile."We will ask in tomorrow's interview," Tiago answers with confidence."You also said that it has to do with the loan shark that nobody knows the name of?"

Moacyr is sitting in the armchair while Adrian is standing in front of him, examining him as if he were a doctor. Moacyr's appearance is not good; he is pale and is complaining of a headache."Dad, we have to go to the doctor. You may be having a stroke." Adrian, despite being a sucker, is an extremely loyal son to his father.Moacyr smiles weakly, indicating that it is not so much. "I'm fine, son. I'm not indicating the classic symptoms of a stroke.""So that must be a lot of blood sugar." Adrian walks away and folds his arms, "Have you been eating again at Evandro's cafeteria? Watch out, Dad, you may be or maybe you already have diabetes. I, who am younger, don't keep stuffing myself with these fatty snacks."Moacyr licks his lips as if he wants to eat more.

Chapter 3148 Josias Is Insane
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.

At João Paulo’s house, he and Josias were about to have a significant conversation.“Walter, do you want to go with your mom to the kitchen?” João Paulo asked, looking at Helen. “I think she made some walnut cake.”“It was carrot cake,” Sandra replied, already getting up from the couch.“You got it.” Helen appeared and picked up Walter in her arms. “Let’s let Dad and Uncle Josias talk.”“Bye, Uncle!” Walter waved goodbye to Josias.“Bye-bye, I want a piece later!” Josias chuckled.Once alone with João Paulo, Josias became serious. “Don’t let anything or anyone ruin this family scenario, little brother.”“I’m fine. No one wants to ruin anything,” João Paulo replied casually.“Well, I hope David hasn’t caused you any trouble.”“He probably doesn’t even know I exist, man.” João Paulo shrugged.“But I stopped by Café Montanha and found out that the Vasquez family has replaced the Mountain family as the ‘annoying people.’”João Paulo sighed in disappointment. “Yeah.

Josias visits Café Montanha for a coffee and finds Rodrigo there. “Rod, how have you been?” Rodrigo is taken aback. “How am I? 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.

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
