last update2021-05-28 19:13:31

Uélton and Wallace are tidied up in the living room, Uélton more casual and Wallace more formal, waiting on the sofa for Josias.

“It looks like we're waiting to go to a party at the condo where Dad works.” Uélton jokes.

“I warn you, bro,” Wallace replies, “that in the condominium where Dad works we wouldn't go in with that outfit.”

“And can I know why not? You with your Hollywood heartthrob face open doors from anywhere. I always follow in the shade.” Uélton laughs.

However, Wallace reacts worried about the younger brother's speech. Isn't he taking this story of living in his brother's shadow very seriously?

Uélton may find it funny, but that is an indication of an inferiority complex.

Josias arrives before Wallace voices his concern. He also decides to be a joker.

“Damn, so I’ll lose my girlfriend! You guys are more stylish than me.”<

Josias pinches his long-tongued friend and hurries to explain.“It was the two of us who came in here last week, Mr. Campos.”“Oh, okay. Please, I apologize for the lack of manners.

    Pamela decides to disguise that she came for lunch in provocative clothes to seduce Josias and maybe someone else.“What is it, girls, it's just an outfit I chose for the occasion.”The women look at each other. Dora was in a long, flowery dress while Jenny and Melissa were in a long-sleeved blouse and trousers. While Pamela looks like she's going to a disco.“Okay, you know...” Dora purses her lips, “There's a handsome guy who came with Josias who might be interested.”Pamela smiles slyly. Yes, she did notice too. Who was that boy whose face looked like marble carved by the Gods?“Mother, you can call the men. The belly is growling.” Melissa tries to hide the annoyance. Pamela in this outfit will draw undue attention.Little does Melissa imagine that this is Pamela's intention: to divert the attention of her best friend to herself, especially from Josias.However, Pamela, while sitting,

    Josias is once again being questioned about his family. He doesn't respond on the spot and disguises it by chewing another forkful of lasagna.Whoever looks like that thinks that Josias is ashamed or has something to hide. But, the truth is that Josias did not want to spoil the happy and festive atmosphere of lunch by telling sad stories.Pamela, who was already curious to find out more about the man, encourages the subject. “So, Josias, can you answer us?”Melissa strafes Pamela with her gaze. “Let's take it easy, people.”“The story is not good and I don't want to spoil the joy of this lunch,” Josias explains.“Ah, Josias, I'm sorry.” Dora apologizes and gestures to end the matter, “I didn't know. Good to know that you are feeling happy with us now.”Josias swallows and smiles again. “That is true. It is comforting to meet good people in this world.“Everyone ag

    Josias also feels that everyone has retired to let him and Melissa be alone to talk.Everybody’s gone except William.“William, aren't you going to doze off?” Melissa asks, amused.“Won't YOU doze off, sis?” William replies with grace.Melissa laughs, Josias not so much.“I thought it was clear to you that everyone wanted to leave us alone,” Melissa explains sweetly.“There it is. I don't want to leave you alone. I don't want you to become pregnant.” William bounces with folded arms.Josias has his first start. William was not yet at ease with him. He takes the floor.“What are you saying, buddy?” He smiles slightly, “I don't want to commit this indecency with your sister, here in the middle of the room, with your parents right there in the room.”“Ah, so that motel story was really true?” William asks, getting more upset, “It

    Josias says goodbye to Melissa and leaves, with only a chaste and innocent hug. He did not dare to kiss her, although he was willing, not to abuse the situation. And yet William's accusation about wanting to lack respect was hammering in his head.William knew of the slander told by his father about Josias wanting to lead Melissa astray. Damn it! Josias will not be able to stand out of curiosity. He could talk right there with Melissa...If he asked, Melissa would confirm that it was Pamela who said that. But, he thinks Melissa doesn't know that and refused to ask, according to Teodoro's advice.But, if another slander appears... woe to anyone who tries again.Upon arriving back at the building, Teodoro was at the counter, as if waiting for him.“Have you napped yet?” Josias responds playfully.“Who dozes off in this heat? I'm glad my lunch was light today.” Teodoro replies, “You must be on a heavy stomach.&rdqu

    Rainbow Garden. Teodoro is walking on Josias's former street to enter his old house.He’s wearing dark glasses not to be recognized, even if the chances were minimal. He has never been seen before.And for the residents of Rainbow Garden, it wouldn't be strange for someone to show up at the abandoned Rocha family home. Perhaps he was a real estate agent to resolve the issue.Yes, resolve it, because Josias's old house has become a problem for the neighbors.Since the tragedy, the house has been closed by the police. Informed that the late Tony Rocha had a son, he was expected to return. So, nobody did anything.But the months went by, and the neighbors started to worry. The undergrowth began to grow in the yard, attracting unwanted insects. The dirt started to accumulate. Have an idea of how the interior of the house looked! Dust, mold, and cobwebs at a minimum.It is exactly this aspect that Teodoro finds Josias's house. He sighs, des

    Josias's former neighbor approaches Teodoro and asks without waiting, “Hey, what are you doing leaving the house of the late Rocha?”Teodoro is embarrassed to explain, especially with a suitcase full of clothes and personal belongings. “Well, I...”The neighbor notices the suitcase. “Ah, are you also picking up a few things?”Teodoro realizes that the neighbor blinked his eyes as a sign of mischief. That is, he is not here to scold him or report him to the moneylender.“Eh, I was informed that the house was empty and I came to see it up close...” Teodoro pretends that he came to steal and the neighbor nods in agreement with him.“Yeah, I already went in there and got the iron for my wife. Mathias went in there and got the television, it was broken, but he managed to fix it! It was a good model, it was worth it.”Teodoro was smiling, but inside he was disgusted to see Josias's ex-nei

    Uélton approaches, wanting to know the reason for such a commotion. “Hey, guys! Am I missing something?”“Josias has recovered some things from his old home,” Romualdo explains.“Wow! And how did he do it without being seen by the moneylender?”Teodoro explains, “I went to his house. Josias taught me the address. Only one ex-neighbor caught me, thinking that I was looting the house and admitting that everyone else is doing the same. One such Mathias took the iron for his wife.”“I know who is. And I'm not surprised.” Josias says, undoing the hug and wiping away tears.“Congratulations, Josias.” Romualdo cheers him up, “I hope that in the future we can get more things, or maybe get the house back.”“I'll only go back to Rainbow Garden when they arrest the loan shark!” Josias frowns resolutely, “As long as impunity reigns in that neighb

    That evening, the Rocha Events Hall was elegantly lit, and the soft sound of a waltz floated through the air.It was a joint celebration for Ignacio and Mary Campos Mountain. But more than just a birthday party, it marked Mary’s fifteenth birthday — her quinceañera.Because of that, the entire hall had been reserved for this important and unforgettable occasion.At the center of it all, Mary danced gracefully in a flowing, elegant pink gown that made her look like a miniature bride. Her dance partner, a close friend of sixteen, guided her with surprising poise.Around them, seven other couples glided across the floor, including Ignacio, who partnered with a girl from a well-known family. Henrique, as the cousin of the twins, also had his partner following the waltz.From the sidelines, Kelvin and Karen watched the scene with quiet pride, while Melissa and Josias — especially Melissa, mother of the birthday twins — took in the moment with emotion.“Look at your daughter,” Josias whispe

    In the Mountain Penthouse living room, the atmosphere was far from serene. The heated discussion between Suzy and her boyfriend’s family showed no sign of calming down.“I can’t believe this!” Suzy exclaimed, her voice tight with indignation. “You all actually think I’m in love with Luís Vasquez!”Karen raised an eyebrow, her tone biting. “You’re not?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Suzy barked back. “I’m in love with Felipe — I love him!”Kelvin, unmoved, folded his arms. “Just not as much as you love your money and your... ‘investments.’”Diane lifted a hand, hoping to bring reason to the conversation. “Suzy, I’ve turned a deaf ear to all the gossip about you. I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane... I don’t know why Felipe insists on believing the lies João Paulo QUEIRÓS keeps spinning!”Daryl’s expression darkened. “So the problem lies with the journalist, then. Looks like I’ll have to deal with

    The Mountain Penthouse living room was filled with tension that morning. Everyone was taken aback as the truth behind the fight that had sent Felipe to the hospital came to light.“Well, if that’s how it is...” Daryl began, clearly processing the news.Diane, urgent to defend her son, jumped in. “But wait, why exactly did Felipe and Luís decide to fight?”Suzy’s lips curled into a sly smile. It was time to drop the bomb.“According to my uncle Eugenio,” she began, “Felipe barged into his office and announced that he wanted to break up with me — because my uncle was happy about me being featured on the cover of Maggiezine.”Everyone looked even more stunned.“Wait, what does that have to do with anything?” Kelvin asked, frowning.Suzy explained, “Felipe saw my uncle thanking Luís for sort of encouraging me to accept the interview with Maggie.”Daryl exhaled sharply. “So my son just had a jealous outburst. That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you

    At the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin and Daryl were relieved that everything had turned out okay. Diane and Karen were nearby, on the sofas, chatting cheerfully. “God was merciful and allowed our son to live a few more years,” Diane declared. “Now, you both need to rest,” Karen patted Kelvin’s chest. “We slept beautifully while you two were in that sterile lounge.” Kelvin yawned once more. “I think I’ll take my dear wife’s advice; what do you think, Daryl?” “Who said we own the place?” Daryl yawned as well. The ladies laughed at their funny husbands. The doorbell rang. Tony passed through the living room, offering, “I’ll get it.” When Tony opened the door, he was surprised by the visitor. “Miss Cogo?” “How funny, you don’t call me by my first name. Did Felipe manage to talk to you before the coma?” Suzy asked bitterly, without smiling. Tony reacted perplexed by this torrent of unfriendly words. “Uh... Come in, please.” Suzy entered, ready for the storm. “Who is it, big brothe

    The next day, Matthew Hogan entered the General Hospital lounge and found Daryl and Kelvin incredibly exhausted but hopeful. “Doctor, how did it go?” Daryl nearly jumped on Matthew. “Calm down, the patient survived the surgery. It’s just a matter of time before he’s back in his room.” “Oh, thank God!” Kelvin cheered. Daryl couldn’t resist and hugged Matthew. “Thank you so much, doctor!” Matthew smiled, somewhat awkwardly, but aware that it was a common reaction. “You’re welcome, we did everything we could.” “Yeah, I understand.” Daryl released the hug, rubbing his eyes — whether from sleep or wiping away a tear. “It’s going to take a little while. I suggest you both go home and rest a bit,” Matthew said. “I think we’ll do just that,” Kelvin yawned. “Now that the danger has passed, I think I deserve it. Doctor, let us know if anything happens,” Daryl requested, patting the doctor’s shoulder. “I’ll do. And congratulations to you both.” Matthew left the lounge. Kelvin yawned a

    At the Rocha Hotel, Eugenio and Jake are talking to Suzy about what is happening. Jake was upset. “Suzy, haven’t you gone to visit your boyfriend yet?” “I don’t know if it’s a good idea to show up there right now.” Suzy lowered her head. “The fight happened... here?” Eugenio responded indignantly, “Yes, in my beloved living room. Luís lost his temper when Felipe called him ‘Spanish Stallion.’“ Suzy lifted her head, completely changing her posture. “WHAT? Well, then, the beating didn’t come out of nowhere!” “Come on, sis, don’t go along with this,” Jake advised her. “They’re saying Felipe’s condition is serious.” “Serious is Luís getting teased every single day by the nickname he despises the most!” Suzy exclaimed. Eugenio decided to tell the whole story, “Suzy, there’s a lot more you don’t know.” “Tell me, uncle!” “Felipe, before being assaulted, said he wouldn’t continue dating you, claiming that the Cogo family would always prefer Luís.” Suzy reacted, paralyzed by this inf

    Rodrigo and Nadia entered the General Hospital lounge, finding Karen and Diane. “We’re here! Where’s Daryl?” Nadia approached the couch. “He went to check with Kelvin for more information,” Diane sniffed. “Thanks for coming.” “We wouldn’t be family if we didn’t show up,” Nadia sat down near them. “And I’m a mother too.” Rodrigo poured himself some coffee. “Any news?” Diane took a deep breath. “Felipe is still awake. Dr. Hogan said the tests revealed a concussion, and they’re now deciding if surgery will be necessary.” “How horrible.” Nadia shuddered. “Well, whether surgery is necessary or not, I hope everything goes well for Felipe.” “Now, I find it strange that Suzy still hasn’t shown up!” Karen frowned. “Did you see her outside?” “No. We thought she was inside or with Daryl,” Nadia replied honestly. Diane shook her head. “No, guys, I can’t believe Suzy would choose to work or handle investments instead of checking on her boyfriend!” Rodrigo took a sip – the coffee wasn’t a

    At Vaztrans, William swallowed hard before answering Sofia’s question.“Sofia, your cousin really went too far this time,” he began cautiously.“What do you mean?” Sofia narrowed her eyes. “I know Luís can be a bit difficult, but—”“Yes, the hot Spanish blood speaks louder sometimes, right?” William took a deep breath. “Luís assaulted Felipe. Daryl rushed to the hospital.”Sofia reacted with her mouth open, holding her breath.Then she composed herself. “How could he do such a thing?”“Do you want to hear my guess?” William asked with a sly smile.“No! It can’t be because of Suzy Cogo!” Sofia ran her hands through her hair as if to pull it out.“It seems we were wrong to have accepted her partnership, huh?” William shook his head.“If she starts to tarnish Vaztrans’ reputation...” Sofia paced around the office. “First, her statement: her reluctance to raise the salary of the employees here. Now, this love triangle that I thought was over...”“Everaldo warned us to be careful with her,”

Sometimes I think João Paulo is lurking, ready to pounce on anything to throw us into confusion.”“But the salary bonus we promised will be paid, right?” William smirked.“Of course, what choice do we have?” Daryl pointed to the magazine. “She made it clear in the interview. We’re not going to contradict her, are we?”William laughed ironically. “It seems Suzy is going to be the kind of person who does anything to get out of trouble, even if it means contradicting herself.”Daryl’s cell phone rang, and he answered, seeing it was Diane. “My dear is calling. Hello, Di?”Diane was at the hospital entrance, trying to be strong. “Hello, Daryl. We need you at the hospital.”“What happened?” Daryl’s eyes widened.“Luís Vasquez beat our son to a pulp, as they say,
