The next day, Elsa serves breakfast at the Queiroz family's house. Vernon appears wearing the tie, tying it with his teeth in the street.
"Today you woke up in a good mood!" Elza greets him.
João Paulo is already at the table eating cornflakes.
Vernon sits up excitedly. "And with good reason, dear! Just yesterday, I was barely back in my office when Ernesto called to inform me that Josias accepted the proposal for the biography!"
Elza leaves the finished bottle on the table and hugs her husband, ecstatic. "Oh, how wonderful!"
After breaking the hug, the two sit down and start to help themselves.
Elza warns him: "But, honey, I leave you with a warning: no inventing things that didn't exist to spice up the book. No commenting on unpleasant things. My son must have his reasons for not having readily accepted the proposal."
"Yes, your son is shy and modest."
"And me, dad, are you going to write a book about me?" João
Harold grabs his son even more and tries to get him to tell him what's going on. "Son, once and for all, stop behaving like a hysteric! What else is missing, are we going to have to take you to a psychiatrist?"Isabel approaches Harold, desperate. "No, Harold, no psychiatrist! Our son is not a madman!""But wife, can you say that your son's behavior is normal?" Harold points at him.Uélton is shivering and white as a table sheet.Isabel releases Uélton from Harold and grabs both of her son's shoulders. "Mommy is here, son. You can count without fear.""She's pregnant, Mom." Uélton whimpers, "Flávia is pregnant and I'm the father.""And we had doubts she wouldn't be?" Harold shrugs, "It's what happens when a man and a woman...""Let's not joke now, husband." Isabel takes control of the situation, "Probably she'll do some test to confirm. And we're going to face another situation like that with a cool head he
The day of Wallace Freire's trial arrives. His family appears at the police station with apprehension on their faces.Josias and Igor appear as usual to provide moral support."Josias, don't you have any new projects to take care of?" Harold asks, "Uélton told us you were going to build a new soccer field for the Happiness Slum team.""First let's take care of Seu Teodoro's building." Josias responds with a smile, "The evacuation has already been done and we have already sent a team to demolish that place.""I hope Seu Teodoro doesn't come to haunt us at dawn." Isabel folds her hands, startled, "He loved that building.""He's going to love it, even more, when we build a new building with more order and method, with every apartment having its bathroom, putting an end to the communal bathroom. That was a shame I never got over." Josias comments.Josias was never comfortable using the master suite bathroom thinking that your ex-neighbors
Melissa is in total disagreement with Flávia talking about having an abortion just because she doesn't like Uélton. "Flávia, don't be irresponsible. We're talking about one life being generated in your womb.""I'm sorry Melissa, but it wasn't in my plans to be a mother." Flavia lies blatantly."But it is the risk you took when you lay down with Uélton." Melissa holds up her hand, "And please don't give me the classic 'I drank too much wine'. After what happened between Vera and Wallace, I start to think that everyone cleverly blames drinking to justify their bad actions.""Believe it or not, I would never have slept with Uélton if I were sober." Flávia asserts, "And now everyone expects me to marry him.""Have you talked to your parents? Have you talked to Uélton?" Melissa is stern, "It's because everyone's going ahead with preparations not knowing what you think."Flavia snorts. She doesn't dare to
The next day, Laerte calls the entire sales team for an extraordinary meeting at Gomes Real Estate.He is standing up and speaking in front of the real estate agents, "People, more expectations for the company's sales and growth! Silva Constructions is so excited about our performance that they are counting on us for another project. They will build a building in Vitória and they want us to sell the apartments!"Everyone applauds enthusiastically. Adrian is the only one who doesn't clap.Bruno asks, "But how are we going to sell the apartments in Vitória?"Laerte smiles mischievously, "I'm still thinking, but the answer right now would be to open a branch in the capital and send a team to work there for now."Real estate agents look at each other. Obviously, Laerte won't send agents at random. He will choose a team containing the best.Bruno gives an immodest smile, already believing that he will be chosen to open the new branc
Flávia feels safe with the firmness and unexpected protection of Uélton.He continues scolding his colleagues, "Then don't complain if your wives show up and I say such a pick-up line, although..." He approaches Flávia, "I doubt your wives are as beautiful as mine!"Flávia forgets about Uélton's ears and melts like butter. The other masons are offended and she decides to leave them alone.Only Simeon is left wondering, "Since when did Uélton get married?"Uélton takes Flávia to the suite and turns on the battery radio, which starts playing Simply Red's "Holding Back the Years".Flávia takes a deep breath and pays attention to her mission. "Uélton, I came here to give you an announcement that can't wait."Uélton smiles childishly, "I know honey, you're pregnant. Don't worry. I love you and we're getting married."Flavia rolls her eyes. Why is everything so eas
A week later, Uélton and Flávia excitedly left the cinema after watching the movie "Top Guns". Flávia walks along the sidewalk trying to sing the song "Take My Breath Away" by Berlin, totally enthusiastic about the film and the soundtrack.Uélton smiles with his girlfriend's delight, "You're really pleased with the movie.""Oh, Uélton, you nailed it! I was eager to watch the movie when I saw the poster. I prophesy a wonderful career for the lead actor.""I prefer myself." Uélton jokes.Before, Flavia would roll her eyes and be impatient. Now she laughs loudly at Uélton's jokes. And his big ears don't bother her anymore.***The Freire couple visited the Chaves couple to talk about their children's future.Raymond is in the armchair and begins, "Harold, I'm sorry for Wallace's conviction.""I beg your pardon in his name!" Harold is slumped on the couch, "He assaulted your daughter
Wallace is furious to learn that his younger brother who was once totally messed up with women is now no longer a virgin, he is dating and is going to be a father. Meanwhile, he had two brides but never touched them."What do you mean by that?" He yells, "While I was still a virgin and never touched Pamela or Vera, have you ever got a bitch pregnant, and are you going to marry her?"Uélton rages, "Look who's talking about bitches! How many times have we begged you to get away from Pamela? And when you found out that Vera was evil too, why didn't you walk away from her? No, you preferred to pretend that everything was fine and set up a whole complicated plan of revenge that backfired! Did you really think you were going to get away with it?""When I saw that I was being cheated a second time by another woman, I felt like I had to get revenge!" Wallace growls."No, bro, you just had to tell her to graze and get on with your life!" Uélton excla
Alan's cry can be heard through the corridors. Melissa promptly gets up, "Excuse me, ladies."She gets up and leaves the living room."And how's your son's biography going, Elza?"Elza grins, "Oh, my husband has already appointed one of our writers and they're already working it out. I ordered Vernon to avoid going into unnecessary detail about my ex-husband's death. It's a biography and not a detective novel."Flávia turns to her and scoffs, "Of course, right? Brazil shouldn't know that you abandoned Josias's father just because he was poor!"Elza claps both hands on her legs and gets up quickly, "Do you want to get on with the cleaning without intruding on the conversation?"Dora is frightened by Elza's outburst. "Flávia, see how the boys are.""They don't stop playing that 'Mario Bros'," Flávia comments and leaves, smiling mischievously at Elza.Elza sits on the couch, stressed and outraged. "That niece
