2024-10-29 19:42:56Beto continues to tell how Teodoro's plan ended up turning against the Reis family and contributing to Wallace's transformation into a monster. However, as we saw earlier, Beto omits some details that could directly implicate him.
He has not yet told Josias that Wallace was not robbed but rather beaten by him.
Josias is flushed with indignation, "He knew there was no sexual intercourse, but he made Vera think he'd believed her lie just to continue the charade and get back at her later, on the honeymoon... who is this Wallace ?"
"I don't know, Josias." Beto shrugs, "If I knew Wallace back when he was a churchgoer, I would have the same question."
"The worst thing is that his family is the complete opposite!" Josias scratches his chin, "Harold Freire is a good man, honest and hardworking. Isabel Freire is a sweet wife and mother. And Uélton Freire has become my best friend. They must be suffering a lot."
"So, Josias, what do you decide?"

"Where is Mr. Freire?" Josias asks as he sits on the couch."He's taking a shower, but he's about to leave." Isabel replies helpfully, "Want a glass of water or a cup of coffee?""Give me a glass of water. I'm avoiding coffee at night to sleep better." Josias responds."Oh sure, the heir isn't making it easy," Isabel replies jokingly and goes into the kitchen.Uélton asks cheerfully, "But isn't the maid there to prevent this?"Josias smiles slightly, “The maid is there to clean up the penthouse. She's not Alan's nanny. Melissa prefers to take care of our child for the first few months herself, to strengthen the mother-child bond.

Josias looks quickly at Harold and then at Uélton. Both men understand that Josias needs to help the police arrest Wallace. They nod slightly.Then, Josias looks at Isabel and smiles reassuringly: "Don't worry, Mrs. Freire. I will not be directly involved in capturing Wallace."Isabel collapses to her knees and cries on Josias's knees. "Thank you so much, my son! I feel calmer.""I still don't understand your objection, Mom." Uélton starts to get annoyed, "Are you thinking that Wallace is above the law?"Isabel gets up and wipes her tears. "It's not like that, son. I believe that what will help Wallace is love and understanding. Maybe he'll have to leave Seu Teodoro's building and come back to live with us. When he was with us, he was an angel.""Nothing like that, Mom!" Uélton strongly objects, "Wallace is already 25 years old, if he hasn't learned how to treat a woman with his family, he'll have to learn in jail! You're too o

Beto continues without being intimidated, "Vera, police officer Prates informed me that you left here as if you wanted to clear your head in the Main Square. Well, this cannot be repeated."Vera glares at Pamela, "I happen to go out, like you said, to clear my head before there's another crime in here!"Beto puts his hand on the glabella. "Argh!

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
