However, the best clothes do not give Adrian the best courage and determination. "Do you think I am doing the right thing in attending, Dad?"
Moacyr pats his son on the shoulder, "Of course you do, sonny! I don't want you sitting alone in the corner of your house crying about what can't be remedied. Let's have some fun!"
Adrian sits gloomily on the couch, "It's a strange place to cheer me up. A wedding."
Moacyr sits down next to his son, he doesn't give up. "Adrian, it's usually at weddings that some people meet the love of their life. Imagine that could happen to you too!"
Adrian looks schizophrenic, "What if I meet an interesting girl and start chatting with her, and in the middle of the conversation Romualdo or Tiago shows up and interrupts us and tells me to serve them snacks?"
Moacyr snorts. This scratch

Adrian asks in amazement, expecting an affirmative answer.But the question makes Vera more nervous, "No, unfortunately. I'm staying with my family. They know the groom and I was invited."That was the excuse she made up in time, and it is in a way, a truth.Adrian smiles lightly. "Ah, at least a plausible explanation. Anyway, at least we'll talk to each other at the party.""We'll see, Adrian."The tone of her voice does not put Moacyr at ease. When she decides to move ahead and enter the church, he pulls Adrian by the arm."Son, I don't think she's comfortable introducing you to her family yet."

Josias takes off his suit and loosens his tie. Then he takes off his shoes, they were new and squeezing the groom's feet. Josias lets out an expression of relief and goes to one of the oak dressers. There was a bucket with champagne and two glasses. Who left it there?Josias smiles satisfied, "Tiago and another one of his mysteries."The bathroom door opens and Melissa comes out of it, without her veil, her hair loose, also barefoot and smiling at her current husband."When I came in, that champagne was there." She informs."Let's just say it was a loving gesture from the Bento family."Melissa asks graciously, "Couldn't it have been Everaldo?"Josias lets out a laugh. "Everaldo is too saintly to care what happens now."Melissa giggles too, but can't help but get sligh

What happened to the ceremonial and so many exquisite things you and Elisa were preparing?"Melissa giggles before answering. "I said I wanted something simple and that I wouldn't even be at the party. Everything we had to do: photos, greeting guests, and catering, we did in the church. Ah, my darling, I couldn't stand the anxiety anymore!Josias smiles maliciously. "Be careful, my darling. Whoever hears you, will think you were too anxious for your honeymoon."Melissa rests her cup on one of the lampshade tables, "Not really.

It's me, Melissa.""Hi, honey, how are you?"Melissa is smiling. "I'm fine, Mommy. Everything went well last night."Dora is a little embarrassed, but her curiosity is stronger, "When you say 'everything worked out'...?"Melissa giggles. "Josias was very gentlemanly, although he was also a first-time sailor. We'll get some experience with time."Dora is relieved to see Melissa speaking without embarrassment. "My daughter, I am very proud of you. In this day and age, when girls are going to bed at 13, you are a rare gem."Melissa philosophizes, "A pity Josias's father is not here to speak the same of him.

"Well, you enjoy it and give your old mother a rest. Your father and brother went to the bakery before it closes."Wallace sits down next to her. "Mother, I was informed yesterday by Vera that you have been visiting her to strengthen your friendship."Isabel is surprised for a few seconds before she replies. "Well... Yes, I got her phone number from Mr. Teodoro and visited her. We need to strengthen our daughter-in-law ties, I don't want to be the villain of the story."

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.

But the princess is Carol,” Mary responded, striking a serious pose.Melissa and Rodrigo laughed heartily. Mary is something else...“Rod, how has it been managing the café in your father’s absence?” Melissa asked seriously.Rodrigo served a baked chicken pastry with ketchup to Mary. “I'm getting by, Melissa. Josias was here earlier, more concerned about my loss than his own, as always. Isn’t he supposed to be resting?”Melissa nodded. “My husband is like that: he only relaxes when all of us are relaxed.”“An impossible mission because of certain people.”Neilton approached with the glass. “Who ordered a guava juice?”“I DID!” Mary grabbed the glass and went to a table.Melissa leaned forward, “Neil, Rod, how are Daryl and Diane?

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
