2021-07-13 18:44:42Everyone stares at Adrian due to his lateness. Adrian doesn't want to reveal that he's been talking to the loan shark.
He just adopts a petulant attitude and replies, "Well, guys, the first time I'm late and you guys react like I committed a crime?"
"It should never exist the first time." Tiago scolds him, "And be more humble in answering us, you don't own this place."
"Rest assured, I won't cheat the clocking in." Adrian makes this little joke and retreats to the kitchen.
Josias has a feeling. "How strange, even though he doesn't like the job, he always arrived on time."
"The traffic was normal and he has a car," Melissa informs.
"Well guys," Josias informs, "I'm going to the Hospital. Sure enough, the Freire family went to see their son and I want to be there for moral support."
"Send him a hug, dear," Melissa asks him for it.
Josias says goodbye to everyone and leaves.

I've been told that Wally is unconscious in the hospital, with an arm in a cast and an eye so black and swollen it doesn't want to open it!" Vera roars with her arms crossed.Teodoro turns off the faucet of the sink and turns to his daughter, shaking his wet hands. "Daughter, you need to understand that your brother would do the same thing to anyone who violated you.""But none of that happened, what the hell!" Vera stamps her foot."However, your brother's reaction was indispensable to our plan. When Wallace recovers, he'll keep thinking he had the first time with you and will marry you.

Apparently, it's some heavy news what he intends to tell Pamela."Excuse me, young man, but where do you know my daughter?""I work with her at the supermarket. And Wallace Freire is my subordinate." Beto responds coldly."Oh yeah, come in! She's gone upstairs, she must have gone to bathe and change clothes to see Wallace. The TV report mentioning the robbery just came out."Raymond in turn enters the house and meets the visitor. "Good night, wife! Why is Teodoro's son here?""You can rest assured that he is not my lover." Cristina scoffs, "He's friends with Pamela at the supermarket."Raymond smiles and nods, he already knew it.Moments later, Pamela runs downstairs, socially dressed for the hospital.

The family along with Josias awaits news in the hallway.Doctor Silvana approaches them and reassures them: "Family Freire?""We are here, doctor." Harold introduces himself."I'm Dr. Silvana. I came to inform you that Wallace no longer has any problems other than those that have already been identified. No hidden fractures or internal bleeding."Everyone is relieved that the situation has not gotten worse."How will my boy's recovery be, Doctor?" Isabel asks in a pleading tone."He will be here in the hospital for a few days under observation, treating the wounds on his face and his arm in a cast. Depending on the speed of his recovery, he will be released next week, but his arm will be in a cast for at least three weeks.""I'm glad my boy lives with us."

Vera is being accused of being naughty and immoral in front of the Freire family and people she doesn't even know. Her face is flushed with embarrassment and her voice starts to tremble."Pamela, please... We drink a lot of wine...""When Beto and I stopped dancing on the dance floor, we didn't find you anymore!" Pamela accuses her, "But Wally was only found passed out on the street early in the morning! Why did he take so long to get back? It was around eleven at night when you guys disappeared! Do I need to continue telling the story?"Josias left the back of the group and stood beside Vera. "No, no need! Now get out of here!"Pamela stares at Josias defiantly: "I want to see if you can get me out of here! Wally is still my boyfriend and I have the right to visit him!""He needs to rest." Isabel disagrees."He's going to rest and I'm going to rest after venturing everything that's stuck in my throat!" Pamela takes a breath and continues, "

After leaving the ladies' room with her face washed, Vera questions Beto about the progress of the plan."Beto, what's going on? Again you and Dad leave me out of the next steps. I am completely lost!"Beto smiles lightly: "Calm down, little sister. Our father wants genuine reactions. He explained to me that nothing happened between you and Wallace, but he let me react in anger for my actions to be true. That way, Wallace can't accuse me of faking it. And now, your equally genuine reaction of shock and surprise has left the Freire family feeling sorry for you. You can be sure that they will forgive the fact that you 'bedded' their son and will still promote you as their daughter-in-law.""Will Pamela give up so easily?" Vera is incredulous."She said she was determined to end the courtship while we were coming here." He replies confidently."Then let's wait for Wally to recover, the dust to settle so I can continue with my part of the plan." Vera s

"We're going to have to buy land in Sunset Village. The official launch will already happen this Saturday!"Ernesto's eyes widen. He didn't think they would have so little time."Sir, if I may..." Ernesto clears his throat, "I think it would be a case of us introducing ourselves at once to Josias Rocha and telling him what we want.""You mean, open the game at once?" José Augusto raises one of his eyebrows."That's right." Ernesto opines respectfully.José Augusto is thinking fast and snapping his fingers. Then he gives a slight smile."OK, I need to prepare myself well to make the right move. So here's what we'll do: let the launch happen, and we'll be quiet.

As he updates the bulletin board and wonders if he should put Wallace's apartment up for rent, he appears with his family.Teodoro stops whistling as if losing all the air in his lungs. He did not expect to see Wallace again with his face deflated and his arm now in a sling."Hello, Seu Teodoro!" Harold greets him cheerfully, "My son is back! He's moving back into his apartment."Teodoro sees a huge suitcase in Uélton's hand and another smaller suitcase in Isabel's hand."Ah, how wonderful!" Teodoro barely disguises his surprise, "And how are you feeling, young man?"Wallace replies: "Ready for another, as they say."

"Now can you explain to me what is going on?"Wallace takes off his good guy mask and falls into laughter like a perfect Hollywood villain. "That's so funny! I'm the one who should be asking that question!"Teodoro approaches. "Look here, boy, my time is short.""Then let's get right to the point!" Wallace leans back against the headboard of the bed, "I've been reflecting on these weeks that have passed in the hospital. Even though I was drunk, I can't exactly remember either taking Vera to her apartment or voluntarily coming here.""You just said it yourself: you were too drunk to remember!" Teodoro replies angrily."That may be, but there is a possibility that none of that happened. After all, why did you tell everyone that you found me beaten up in downtown?

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

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

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,”

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,
