Josias apologizes to Moacyr for not coming earlier, "Melissa forgot to give me the message, Mr. Barbosa."
"That's okay, she must have her mind full of problems."
Josias heaves a sigh: "So Adrian came here at his office hours to hassle you."
"He said he was going to resign."
Josias chuckles. "Romualdo and Tiago refused. They said they haven't screwed Adrian enough yet."
Moacyr has a serious expression. "Josias, I know you respect me as a father."
"Of that, you have no doubt."
"So I'd like to ask you a favor."
"Maybe two."
"Let Adrian go."
Josias takes a deep breath. If it were up to him, Adrian would never have come in. "You know that for me Adrian would be gone, especially after learning that he's been flirting with my fiancée."
"I asked Mr. Silva to employ Adrian so that he would stop living irresponsibly. It seems that he has

Teodoro and Beto take Wallace into the office and close the door. Teodoro sits in the upholstered chair while the younger men stand."Well then, let's hear what you have to tell us." Teodoro starts the conversation."It's very simple." Wallace announces nonchalantly, "Since I intend to no longer disrespect Vera, this is where we will live after the wedding."Teodoro bounces back in his chair and has his hand on his chest.Beto asks sarcastically, "Do you want to continue living in rent right here?"Wallace replies debauchedly, "Don't be for that! Let's renew the contract or make a new one with the proper updates."Teodoro sneers: "Are you completely out of your mind? I thought my daughter deserved a better place!""I think I made it very clear what kind of treatment your daughter deserves. She's bound to me now, she's mine and I have the right to do whatever I want with her!"Beto is outraged. "Again with this sexist talk?"

"Are you sure a fight didn't happen at Harold Freire's house?"Beto keeps concealing it. "No, little sister, there was nothing like that. Wallace showed up, we confronted him and he promised not to do it again. He guaranteed that he loves you and that he's going to marry you."Vera sighs in relief. "Whew! You don't know how relieved I am! For a moment I thought I was about to make the worst mistake of my life!"Beto frets, his eyes showing pity. "Little sis, if you still realize that it's not worth it to marry Wallace, don't insist. No one here is forcing you into anything."Vera smiles sweetly, "You can rest assured, bro, I can take ca

Igor is stunned, talking with Tiago and Josias about what Melissa said."Didn't you guys tell her that the loan shark's death was ordered by us?"Tiago puts his index finger to his mouth. "Schi! Keep your voice down, any moment Adrian might hear us."Josias confirms, "No, Igor, we haven't told Melissa. She feels like she's going to faint just hearing the hypothesis from Adrian's mouth. That's why I didn't have the courage.""Adrian is being fired today, at least." Tiago shrugs, unconcerned.Igor smiles, "Well, here I am in case he wants to make trouble."The door of his room unexpectedly opens and Adrian enters, with a victorious countenance. "Ah, the Gossip Marys are here! I've come to say goodbye to this company I should never have joined!"Tiago doesn't miss the chance to ridicule him, "You couldn't bear to leave without saying goodbye to Josias, your male, right?"Adrian retorts exploding, "Look, I can punch you now, you ba

"Is this a workplace? If you don't speak up, I would never know!"Vera doesn't shy away. "If you've come to talk to Wally, you can forget. He's already asked me for forgiveness."Natalia pretends she wasn't impacted by the information and tries to disguise it, "You look ridiculous with that nickname the other one gave him."Vera is puzzled. "And how can you have an opinion about that? By 'the other' do you mean Pamela?""You don't remember me, right? Of course not, with so many people who took your mask off that day in the hospital. I was there."Vera's eyes widen, she remembers the day Melissa and her friends accused her of stealing Wallace from Pamel

Adrian reacts angrily when he learns that it was Moacyr who asked him to be fired. Moacyr doesn't show any fear of his son."Son, if I continue to have these fits of anger, the one who will go six feet under will be you."Adrian repeats the question in a furious tone, "Did you once again talk to Josias and ask them to fire me?"Moacyr narrows his eyes. "I thought I was doing you a favor! Didn't you ask for your resignation and they refused?"Adrian continues with his paranoia, "Yes, but by you meddling in this matter, it only makes it more obvious that Josias wants to steal you from me!"Moacyr finishes drinking his tea and places the cup on the coffee table. "Son, stop being absurd.""Yes, it was absurd last year that you said you would rather have Josias as a son."Moacyr apologizes, "I didn't mean it, and even if I wanted to, that would be impossible. You are my son, you have my blood," he sighs, "Unfortunately, since that conversa

At the construction site, Josias is talking to Uelton about the same subject. "At this hour Melissa is talking to your mother."Uélton is crestfallen. "Poor little mother. She's expecting a dream wedding, just like yours."Josias calms him with his hand on Uélton's shoulder, "But, there's still time to stop it. I've always wondered about the way things turned out.""It was a stroke of bad luck for all of us that Wallace was robbed. Pamela could have broken it up without that."Josias frowned. "I still can't get over that coincidence that Wallace stayed with Vera while Pamela was dancing with Beto. The couples were switched.""What does Seu Teodoro say about it?""He doesn't talk about it, he huffs and puffs, and he gets nervous, so I don't insist."Maybe you're not the right person to insist."

"Pamela never let you witness this here, did she?"Vera shakes her head, waking up from her reveries. "Sorry, Wally. You must think I'm a skank."Wallace goes to the closet, looking for clothes. "No, never. However, you are a woman, and a woman always likes a strong, virile, masculine body.

You're not like that, Vera."Vera remains cold, "I need to be. What do you want, anyway? Yesterday Wally appeared with a towel wrapped around his waist and I reacted like a damsel.

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.

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.

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
