Jeremiah goes up the stairs in a vexatious way. Josias turns to the landlord.
"I will have to expel this citizen," Teodoro speaks in a low, sinister tone.
"More and more, I think Jeremiah told Pamela about our plan to get custody of Caio." Josias shakes his head ruefully, "After you told me they've been cheating on Wallace, having intercourse in their apartment, it would be the most natural thing for that gossip guy to tell her."
"Did your father-in-law talk to Jeremiah about this?" Teodoro questions without knowing why.
"Simeon worked with Jeremiah at the same mechanic shop. Currently, he has resigned and is working at Silva Constructions."
Teodoro puts both hands on his head in despair: "Oh, my Father! It's explained why you had to appeal to plan B."
Josias reacts with a mental snap: "Is she still in a good mood with Wallace?"
Teodoro's eyes widened even more. "My boy, haven't you heard yet? Uélton hasn't told you?"

Josias realizes that the Freire family was embarrassed by Wallace's sinking into their troubled and controversial courtship."Guys, here's the matter," He goes on, "you must be aware that I defended Pamela when Wallace assaulted her in the supermarket. I don't even know why, but I believe it's past time for the family to do something effective.""What can we do, Josias?" Harold asks desperately, "We've tried everything. We've given up hope."Josias smiles slightly. "All is not lost, Mr. Freire. You should take advantage of Pamela's leaving the apartment and talk to him. With the days going by, he must have thought better."Isabel folds her hands in a sign of hope: "God hears you, Josias. We need to rescue our son. Imagine what a shame: our son being arrested for assaulting women!""We hate Pamela, but that doesn't mean we want violence," Harold explains."So that's it, guys."

As soon as Pamela has been slapped by her mother, Cristina glares at her and holds up her index finger, silently sending her a warning not to scream or complain. Then, as if nothing had happened, Cristina points to the cups."Take the cups for them to drink their tea." Cristina orders like a British Lady. She's probably imitating another character from the soap.Pamela swallows the curses and chooses five cups to take away, placing them in a plastic bowl for ease.Back in the living room, Carmen is smirking and barely hiding the urge to laugh, as she could hear the sound of the slap being delivered and she can see one of Pamela's cheeks redder than usual. Pamela spends the rest of the family conversation in silence.As Adrian leaves, Raymond announces to Carmen: "He's okay, daughter! But, what a strong, sturdy boy, huh?

We're getting married."Adrian breathes so deeply that he seems to have sucked in all the air in the world. "Why are you doing this, Melissa?""Wow, that's what people do when they love each other, they get engaged and get married after a few months.

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.

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.

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

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.
