2021-08-17 18:43:50In Saint Gabriel, Adrian and Bruno are closing the sale of a house. They are standing next to Bruno's car. He is using the hood of the car to fill out the paperwork for the sale of the property to the client.
Bruno is quite pleased, "See, Adrian, how easy it is to close a sale?"
Adrian replies not so excited, "It's not that easy. You had to work a little on your persuasion."
Bruno gives a mischievous little smile. "Believe me, my friend: I have had more difficult customers. But when the client really wants to buy a house, there's not much you can do."
Bruno finishes filling out.
Adrian says out of the blue, "Now you can tell me Laerte's message."
Bruno smirks. Adrian is not dumb.
"The contract says that this house was built by Silva Constructions in 1982."
Adrian gets a nauseated look on his face. "I offer my condolences to the client."
Bruno giggles. "Stop being a pain in the ass, buddy! Look at the finish on this place

Angry knocks on the door take his peace away."I wonder who could it be at this hour?" He grumbles in dissatisfaction.He gets up, clumsily puts on a shirt, and heads for the living room. As he opens the door, Isabel and Cristina head inside."Hey, what is this invasion here?" Teodoro complains.Cristina answers ironically, "Invasion? You opened the door for us!"Teodoro is stunned. "But, first you should say 'good afternoon, may I come in?'"Isabel is more mocking and sarcastic: "May we come in?"Teodoro feels that the two ladies are mocking him.

He reminisces about the time when he was still a teenager, playing and scoring goals.He hears Ferreira's voice: "I'm glad to see you back."William turns around and finds Ferreira approaching him, smiling. He smiles weakly, "Well, here I am wanting to take a little more risk."Ferreira stops walking and comments, "You never should have stopped, Will. You could be on a First Division team, playing in Rio de Janeiro or Sao Paulo."William scratches his head. "That's embarrassing...""Well, you don't live here anymore, thank goodness. If you still want to play soccer, I can introduce you to the coach of the Green Park team. In fact, it will be much easier for you to get exposure to a more relevant team."William smiles, making a decision: "How about I stick around and make the Happiness Slum team the champions of Lagoon City?"The idea greatly pleases Ferreira and he licks his lips.

When in fact these girls shamelessly throw themselves at him!"Josias shakes his head. "But, if that were the case, Beto should have the decency and the humility to refuse. But, it seems he enjoys having a different woman in his bed each day."Teodoro crosses his arms and his face turns red. "Josias, we've been through a lot together, let's not fight now over something that shouldn't even be your business! Isn't your wedding coming up?"Josias smiles devilishly, "Yes, and I want to know if I can keep the Reis family's invitation."Teodoro's face from red turns pale.

The father asks jovially."I don't think I'll make it past the probationary period." Was the son's straightforward reply.Moacyr closes the door and approaches his son. "Don't even say things like that as a joke, son. You need to have something to support yourself with."Adrian sits down on the couch. "Yes, but if they go on to insist that I have to contact Silva Constructions..."Moacyr sits down on the other couch. "So that's the problem.""Mr. Gomes had the nerve to have me accompany Bruno to a sale, and along the way, the boy tried to convince me."

Dora begins to place the pans on the table."How was your day, honey?" she asks peacefully.Simeon, however, follows frowning, "Milton gave me a scolding.

"Would you prefer your children to behave eternally like children dependent on us?"Simeon chooses a dish and begins to serve himself. "No, I would like them to make their decisions based on common sense.""Common sense, in Will's case, was to stay in soccer. I always knew he would never be happy if he didn't do what he liked."Simeon does 'tsk' with his tongue. "He said he quit soccer because of his son. What happened?

At Vaztrans, William questioned Sofia about the company’s finances, which are now in order since her parents stopped interfering.“Uh, I think the explanation is simple. With my father no longer here, we don’t have that urge to prove we’re always the best public transportation company in the city.” Sofia sat face to face with him. “I remember my father would always freak out when people mocked the old bus models we had.”“Yeah, and he would waste money buying expensive buses that we couldn’t afford to maintain.” William accepted this explanation for now. “So, Sofia, you wouldn’t be offended if I said your father was just playing at being a manager?”Sofia made a face. “My father managed Vaztrans since its inception. I’m here to continue his legacy.”“I know you’ll do a good job.” William leaned back in his chair. “I just want us to keep things this way now that we’re in control.”Sofia crossed her arms. “Great. I hope that doesn’t mean any insinuation on your part – or from that littl

Vaztrans, morning. Brand new buses come in and out of the garage, with drivers and fare collectors smiling in their new uniforms. In William’s office (which used to belong to Olivia), he scratched his forehead while researching and checking the financial spreadsheets. Sofia, greeted like a diva by the staff, entered the office. “Good morning to you too! Have a good day at work!” She approached the desk. “Good morning, Will! What’s with that long face?” “I’m not making a long face. I’m making a face of someone who doesn’t understand this accounting,” William replied, still looking at the monitor. “What’s the problem? Are we broke again?” Sofia’s eyes widened. “No.” William finally looked at her, with a mischievous smile. “We have so much slack that we could pay off one of the installments of the loan we took from Josias if we wanted to.” Sofia continued with wide eyes. “Oh, that’s incredible, right?” William kept smiling. “Sofia, you’re not getting my astonishment. The point is

At Rocha Constructions, Josias and Alan faced a dilemma: should they start a war against the Borges brothers? Thierry noticed their initial hesitation. “If it’s too much for you two, forget it. J.J. and I will manage on our own. Maybe Daryl can help us.” The mention of Daryl made Josias react, “Wait a minute, Thierry. We never said we wouldn’t help you. On the contrary, I feel the same way: that truck was deliberately sent against the supermarket to cause that accident.” “Yeah, a way to force J.J. to choose between focusing on the farm or on Vasconcelos. No one but the Borges brothers was interested in that.” Thierry smiled slightly. “The problem is we have no proof.” Josias put his hands in his pockets. “The truck was on the street, there are no surveillance cameras nearby.” Alan asked, “But J.J. decided to stay with Vasconcelos, right?” “Exactly. That was our way of getting back at them.” Josias nodded. “So, our only form of investigation will be to observe how Reynaldo Borges

Just out of spite, David was taken to the Happiness Slum police station, where Dylan was now interrogating him and pressing him against the wall. David was shaking while handcuffed, thinking he might have a chance to escape. “What is going on here? LET ME GO! This station is not equipped to handle my problems!” Dylan sat at the desk, keeping one of his subordinates nearby, standing by the door. “Oh really? It just so happens that it’s the opposite: Commissioner Tavares said he doesn’t want to see your face at the headquarters!” David was horrified by the remark. “What does that mean? We can’t allow such abuse! Call my dad immediately!” Dylan, grinning with delight, leaned back in his chair. “Mr. Souza, it was your father who ordered us to remove you from the Rocha Constructions building.” “That’s IMPOSSIBLE! My dad never ordered Alan’s arrest!” “Isn’t it because Alan Campos Rocha has never given the police any reason to detain him?” Dylan asked ironically. “And on what charges
Chapter 3206 Is Daniela Pregnant?
At the management office of Lafayette Supermarket, Thierry was signing a fat check for a member of the Cintra family. The man, who was the victim’s brother, was staring at everyone with disdain and arrogance. “You have to understand that we can no longer shop at this supermarket, right?” he kept saying. “My poor brother used to come here because the wine prices were cheaper, but now... we’re going to have to resort to the little store closer to home, even if it costs more!” Nadia was outraged. “Mr. Cintra, don’t be arrogant!” Mr. Cintra raised his chin at Nadia. “I can sue you for this too, you know?” “No, you can’t,” Thierry emphasized, tearing the check from the invoice and hastily extending it to him. “Take it and get out of our sight!” “You are in the wrong and still want to play the victim!” Mr. Cintra simply felt entitled to cluck. “Thank goodness my brother didn’t die! Otherwise, we would tear this crappy supermarket down! It was much better when the Ramos family ran this

The next day, Daniela was talking to Dr. Matthew Hogan at General Hospital. “Alright, Daniela,” he said with a smile. “I hope we don't find anything serious in your tests.” “Could I... be pregnant?” Daniela asked in a whisper. Talking to Matthew inevitably reminded her of Silvana Hogan, his mother and a famous obstetrician. “My mother is now retired and enjoying the Bahamas,” Matthew said kindly. “If your test results indicate you’re expecting, we’ll refer you to the appropriate department.” “Thank you so much, Dr. Hogan!” Daniela extended her hand, and Matthew shook it. A few moments later, Daniela was walking through the corridors, thinking about the possibility of being pregnant. She even placed her right hand on her belly, already imagining herself carrying the heir of the Reis family. She smiled mischievously as she recalled the countless nights of passionate love where Pedro ravaged her mercilessly, only stopping when the alarm rang the next morning. How could she not

Melissa worried about her parents' objection regarding the twins getting involved with their paternal family. "Mom, Dad, I understand your concern." Melissa broke the silence. "But in a way, they're right. I don't have the right to completely cut them off from Kelvin. Besides, they have another little brother." Dora looked at her wristwatch. "At this hour, Mary must be in the penthouse, keeping an eye on Anthony." "Oh, did they say they were going to do that?" Melissa smiled slightly. "Yes, someone texted them asking for it. Probably Kelvin," Simeon replied seriously. Dora explained, "Daughter, let's hope Daryl doesn't take advantage of the closeness to poison our grandchildren's minds." Melissa was alarmed. "What are you saying, Mom? I won't allow that!" "No, I know you won't allow it." Dora frowned. "That's why I hope you visit Kelvin and set some boundaries." "If I bring this up, I'll unintentionally be starting a stupid war," Melissa retorted. "They know their boundaries.

At Rocha Constructions, Sofia is eager to prove that she was right all along about Suzy. She leaned back against Alan again, wanting information. "Dear, before we were interrupted, you were saying something about me being right to be suspicious of Suzy Cogo. I knew that smartass was planning something!" Alan scratched the back of his neck. "I feel like she was the one Everaldo mentioned in the prophecy." Sofia's eyes lit up. "That's true! Suzy is the only one investing out there! Do you think she will want a slice of Rocha Constructions?" "I sincerely hope my dad doesn't agree to sell any shares. I won't do that. Better warn Caio." Alan became serious. "Well, I'll have to put up with her at Vaztrans." Sofia sighed, feeling discouraged. Alan turned to his wife with curiosity. "Speaking of which, dear, we haven't heard any news about Vaztrans being in trouble this year. Did you finally manage to control the spending?" Sofia looked confused.

Sofia reacted, obviously pleased, when none other than her husband stated that she was right.Unable to resist any longer, she sat on Alan's lap and delivered THAT delicious, passionate kiss.When the kiss ended, Alan was perplexed, eyes wide."What was that for?" He asked, lost."You silly!" Sofia began to laugh. "This is your reward for believing in me. And tonight, you'll have another reward that's under my panties—"The last phrase was clearly heard by Caio, who was opening the door at that moment.Sofia quickly bounced off Alan's lap, trying to disguise the intimacy. Caio blushed slightly, smiling awkwardly.Alan smiled nervously. "Wow, everyone decided to start early in 2012! Good morning, cousin."Caio avoided looking at Sofia. "Good morning, cousin. Do we have any updates regarding our annual meeting?""My dad appointed me president – again." Alan's cat-like grin indicated that he wasn't complaining.
