2021-05-29 19:17:57Josias'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

Sooner or later she falls to the ground having an epileptic seizure or a heart attack.“Don't worry, mom,” Pamela disguises, “he's a boring kid from school.”“Your dad used to tease me like that.” Mrs. Chaves replies sternly, “And when I found out myself, I was naked in his bed, getting pregnant with your sister.”“MOM!” Pamela screams wildly. The mere idea of Pamela being in the same situation with Fabrício makes her shiver and sweat coldly, “Stop talking nonsense!”“Who is this boy who is pestering you?

I didn't want to talk about happiness. I'm asking about necessity.”Simeão raises an eyebrow, he is feeling the conversation quite amused. “Oh, Pamela, then you went over the top. I don't know; do you have another objection?”“It’s his mysterious past that he refuses to say.” She utters the phrase in one breath, “Dona Dora asked and he was all embarrassed.

Next to the clothes are the comics.Josias's eyes shine when he sees things that he had not seen for months, and which he did think he had already lost.“Thank you very much, Seu Teodoro.” Josias is grateful.“I cleaned the suitcase properly and kept it in my office. Now you need to buy a new wardrobe or dresser to store it all. That one up there is falling apart due to moths and termites.”“That's true, but I didn't want to complain,” Josias speaks in a joking tone.“You joker.” Teodoro giggles.

The next day, Wednesday, Melissa is surprised by Fabrício's presence so early in the day.Really early, because Simeão is still leaving for work, wearing jumpsuits and William is wearing school uniform shorts.“Fabrício?” Simeão asks with a visible strangeness, “Did you lose anything here?”“Mr. Campos, good morning. Is Melissa at home?” Fabrício asks trying to captivate with a smile.“Of course she is.” Simeão does not mean to be rude, “If you doubt it, she must still be asleep.”William gives a sarcastic laugh and puts the backpack on his back. Fabrício realizes that William will not accept him as a brother-in-law and asks him out of teasing.“Are you going to school without a uniform shirt?

So she is not cheating on you for seeing me.”“It won't be for long. Soon I will not allow you to approach her.” Josias responds boldly.However, Fabrício tilts his head back and lets out a hearty laugh. “What are you going to do about it, my comrade? I have more money and power than you. You are just a bricklayer helper. You can't afford to give Melissa a decent future.”“And you have? What is your job?”Josias's question takes a little pride out of Fabrício. It takes a few seconds before responding. “Well, I'm going to study Economics.”“Attend class, not work as an economist!” Josias burst out laughing, “Let me guess: you are the one who will spend all your twenty years studying, stud

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.

Josias frowned."Because Sofia has been on alert with her since last year," Alan answered. "And she's the only investor I have in mind.""Son, Sofia needs to relax and stop causing trouble with other women." Josias tried to push Melissa away.

Neither she nor her husband,” Dora commented.“I don’t even know if I should open the gift. I’ll decide tomorrow.” William finally got up and placed the package under the tree.Simeon and Dora exchanged worried glances. Melissa approached them.“Dad, Mom, what happened?”“Sweetheart, Will received a gift from Stacy.” Simeon added ironically, “Do you remember her?”“I remember, unfortunately.” Melissa pouted. “Isn’t she happy and married to Igor in Victoria?”“Yes, but she decided to mess with my boy’s emotions.” D

Josias wants the family gathered to celebrate the end-of-year holidays, but Alan is more worried about the integrity of the gifts in case João Paulo and Luís stomp on them during a potential fight.“Alan, don’t think about that. There won’t be a fight,” Josias responded confidently.“The only way you can guarantee that is by not inviting one of them. And I know you wouldn’t leave Uncle João Paulo out,” Alan asserted, noticing that his computer had shut down.“I don’t want the family incomplete this time,” Josias replied emotionally. “Carol is still in Rio. David has become a pain and isn’t answering my calls. I only have you and J.J. as my children.”Alan frowned. “It saddens me to know that you considered inviting David. Wasn’t it you who fiercely reprimanded David months ago?”“Yes, and he has been behaving since then,” Josias replied, unaware that his son was causing a scene at Angel’s store at that moment. “In fact

At the Rocha Mansion, in addition to the Christmas spirit, everyone was eagerly awaiting the Great Phone Call from Everaldo. “Mom, is today the day that Prophet Everaldo is going to call Uncle Josias?” Mary sweetly asked as she hung ornaments on the Christmas tree in the living room. “Maybe, dear,” Melissa replied, checking her phone. “He usually does it between Christmas and New Year1s.” Simeon and Dora entered, also checking their phones. “There are no messages on my phone,” Simeon commented. “Not even on mine,” Dora said as she sat down on the couch. “And I still can’t believe that last year, the call ended up at the Mountain Penthouse.” “What a miracle they behaved this year, huh?” Simeon joked. William, who was organizing the gifts on the carpet, suddenly stopped, feeling guilt weigh on him. Not only did Daryl NOT behave, but he was also part of the mischief! William resumed what he was doing, convincing himself that it was for a good cause. Ignacio noticed the pause. “
Chapter 3196 Permission to Date
At Café Montanha, David was only served by another waiter since Neilton was deliberately attending to other customers. “Your supervisor lacks professionalism,” David said. But the helpers, also coming from the Uélton Freire Orphanage, just shook their heads, refusing to interact with David. He wanted coffee, they served coffee. Just that. Looking back at the table where Suzy and Felipe were interacting romantically, David felt a burning sensation in his stomach. He approached them again, holding a cup of cappuccino. “Feeling better, Suzy?” “I was much better before you approached,” Suzy replied, dissatisfied. Felipe huffed. “Dude, don’t you know when you’re not welcome in the conversation?” “I’m Josias Rocha’s son,” David replied arrogantly. “I don’t need to be ‘welcome’ in conversations. I approach and talk to whoever I want, as I please!” Suzy finished drinking her coffee, banging her cup on the saucer. “Are you done, dear? Come on, I need to stop by Vaztrans.” David narrow

David entered the Café Montanha and came face to face with Felipe and Suzy talking at a table while Neilton served their orders. “Don’t worry, Suzy. Now that we’re dating, those annoying people won’t bother us anymore,” Felipe said. Neilton commented, “It’s strange that Pete Reis behaved like that. He and his wife are nice people over at the building.” With just those two sentences, David understood the whole story. Seeing Suzy with tearful eyes felt like something was stabbing his heart. Unable to contain himself, he approached their table, shouting, “And who asked for your opinion, you lousy waiter? People from the favelas will always be people from the favelas, wrap your mind around that!” Neilton nearly dropped the tray in shock at the interruption. Felipe, with his back to David, frowned. Suzy was wiping her eyes with a tissue. “David, not you too.” David looked at Suzy with pleading eyes. “I didn’t come here to hurt you, Suzy. I came to defend you! What did Pete Reis say?
Chapter 3194 J.J.’s Choice
Leonardo nearly had a heart attack when he found out that J.J. chose Vasconcelos Fabrics to work. “No, no, this can’t happen.” He shook his head, no longer caring to hide what he really wanted. “Hey, what are you talking about, lawyer Borges?” Dylan asked sarcastically. “Did you not expect J.J. to finally decide where he would work? Well...” Leonardo stood up again. “I thought he would honor his family’s legacy – the Bezerra Farm!” “I am honoring it by appointing a representative to take care of matters like the accident that happened with the truck,” J.J. replied, studying Leonardo’s body language. “But my dad wants me at Vasconcelos to represent him since he is the majority partner.” The phrase ‘he is the majority partner’ hit Leonardo like a punch to the face. If his father heard that now... Then, to give no more clues, Leonardo smiled strangely. “Alright, J.J. Go to the office and inform my brother Reynaldo of your decision. I’m sure he’ll be relieved by your decision since
