2022-01-06 19:31:01Cristina and Carmen stand in front of Pamela to stop Beto from beating her. Now, what is this idiot thinking? Assaulting his own wife for something that was his fault?
"Ladies, get out of my way!" Beto orders them.
"No, we won't leave!" Cristina insists, "I've already said that we're not going to tolerate domestic violence, especially since she's my daughter!"
"Then teach her how to respect her husband!"
The three of them hear a knock on the door.
Carmen goes to answer it and it's Raymond outside, frowning.
"Dad!" Pamela greets him.
"I could hear the screams from the hallway." Raymond strides in and closes the door, "Let's talk alone, son-in-law."
The women immediately leave the apartment. Pamela gives her husband a sarcastic look before closing the door.

A few more months go by. Stacy is at her apartment getting ready for another day of work. She is in her uniform, checking her hairstyle in the mirror, and smiling contentedly.When she picks up the keys to the door, the landline rings."Hello?"On the other side is Igor, "Stacy, good to hear you."Stacy feels a shiver on the back of her neck. Was Igor hitting on her?"Igor, I think we need to talk—""Elisa went into labor. Can you tell Fábio to hold his own for today?"Stacy relieves herself and smiles, mentally chiding herself. She thought Igor would repeat the same perversity as Marcelo, "OK, I'll let Fabio know. I could go see my friend, but I think my presence at the restaurant will be necessary."Igor feels torn, "Ehr...

Yes, she's fine, but the labor wasn't easy.""She also had high blood pressure and passed out after giving birth?"

Chapter 3218 What It’s Really About
At Eugenio’s apartment, he opened the door for Felipe. Suzy’s boyfriend found her a bundle of nerves, sitting on the sofa as if she were in some withdrawal crisis. “DEAR!” Felipe rushed to the sofa, sat down, and hugged her tightly. “What have they done to you...” “A tragedy, Felipe.” Eugenio sighed. “They just won’t leave my niece alone.” “Well, there’s a simple word to solve this: LAWSUIT!” Felipe shouted, but his loud voice didn’t bother Suzy. “Jake left here saying João Paulo is in love with her. Does that make sense?” Eugenio scratched his neck. Felipe’s eyes were on fire. “Maybe. That big horse has too much virility, and having just one wife isn’t enough. He needs to relieve himself with other bitches — but not my Suzy!” Felipe’s protective demeanor calmed Suzy down. Not all men are worthless — there are those who are good for dating and marrying. Eugenio realized that. “Look, she’s getting better. Suzy, do you want to go down and have breakfast at Café Montanha?” Only
Chapter 3217 New Bombshell
João Paulo’s article in the next issue of LCN, both printed and online, was as follows: “Even with Vaztrans turning a profit in annual revenue, Suzy Cogo refuses to give her employees a raise!” Suzy flipped the breakfast table and was screaming like a possessed person. Eugenio froze in his chair, watching the table and all the breakfast spilled on the floor. Jake came out of the bathroom still with shaving foam on his right cheek and without a shirt. “What’s going on here?” Jake shouted. “He did it again, HE DID IT AGAIN!” Suzy was jumping and stomping, looking like she was skipping rope, but she wanted to stomp on the newspaper on João Paulo’s column page. Jake pushed Suzy aside and grabbed the newspaper. Despite her footprints, he managed to see the news. The published photo of Suzy did not do her beauty justice, as if the photographer had been hiding and took the picture without her knowing. “He’s in love with you, sis.” Jake crumpled the newspaper with both hands. “That’s t

At the Borges family home, Leonardo was chatting with his father during a break from work. Renan raised his eyebrows as Leonardo recounted what Reynaldo had discovered. “A girl whose parents worked for Josias in the ‘80s?” “Yes, and she insisted on introducing herself by her full name as if she took great pride in it: Sarah Paes.” Renan’s eyes lit up. “It can’t be possible. There was one of the henchmen, my old boss’s right-hand man... Ernesto Paes. After Josias killed him, Ernesto switched sides and became the butler... when I tried to take down Josias, I think he was already married...” “So there’s no doubt, Dad.” Leonardo was excited. “She’s the daughter of that traitor.” “And she’s been in contact with Josias, it seems.” Renan smiled, rubbing his hands together. “We need to find a way to get close to her.” “The guys at the café might have information for us.” Leonardo sat down on the couch. “Alright, I’ll leave this in your hands, or Reynaldo’s, since he’s the one who hear

Something inside her told her to agree if she didn’t want to get into trouble.Kelvin approached them. “Good morning, madames!”“Kelvin, I need to talk to you.” Melissa turned to him.“Let’s go to my office.

Sofia was still smiling and occasionally shot ironic glances at Suzy.“Guys, João Paulo wants to interview Vaztrans, just as I predicted,” Daryl announced. “As we can see, this company’s good performance has not gone unnoticed by the general public.”“Oh, damn...” Suzy muttered under her breath.“Why are you complaining, Suzy?” Sofia asked provocatively.“We have a bad history with that guy,” Suzy said louder. “Can’t we ask another journalist to come here?”“Knowing João Paulo, he’ll come,” William replied, also a bit apprehensive. “Which one of us is going to answer his questions?”Daryl shrugged. “Looks like I’m the only one who’s not on bad terms with him, right?”“Be careful, Daryl. João Paulo is more treacherous than his late father,” Sofia grumbled.Suzy decided to counterattack, “This is all because of the ‘Spanish Stallion’? Get over it, dear.

Chapter 3213 Time to Think About the Future
Sofia and Suzy started arguing in the middle of the employees in the Vaztrans garage. “Suzy, don’t be stingy!” Sofia exclaimed. “After many years, our company finally had some financial breathing room. I want to celebrate this achievement by doing something nice for our hardworking employees.” “That’s right, Mrs. Campos Rocha!” The employees cheered. Suzy smiled maliciously. “I see your little game.” “What do you think I’m doing?” Sofia crossed her arms. “You’re staging a publicity stunt or trying to win the hearts of the employees. Well, that’s not going to happen!” “You...” Sofia held back the urge to slap Suzy but decided to take the high road. She turned to the drivers and conductors and shrugged. “I tried.” Sofia made a strategic retreat, leaving Suzy alone in front of disappointed employees. “Hey, wait...!” Suzy felt she was about to be lynched and ran out of the garage. The employees booed and cursed her without mercy. ****** At João Paulo’s house, he was sitting in
Chapter 3212 Can We Give a Raise?
Reynaldo and Leonardo were talking in the former’s office, tension and anxiety taking over their voices and expressions. “So you mean the idiot knows everything?” Leonardo asked illogically. “If J.J. discovered our plan, then he’s not an idiot, man.” Reynaldo corrected him. “You understood what I meant!” Leonardo gestured. “And now? What are we going to do?” “Most likely, Josias Rocha knows too.” Reynaldo sighed, discouraged. “As our father said, we need to wait for the dust to settle before we act again.” “We need to make you the majority partner.” Leonardo asserted. “Leo, sometimes I’d prefer if you stayed out of this.” Reynaldo admitted from the bottom of his heart. “You have a career as a lawyer that precedes you. If things get worse, if you’re exposed, not only would you be fired from Damascene Lawyers – no agency would have the guts to hire you.” Leonardo smiled and patted his brother’s right shoulder. “Don’t worry about me. Avenging our father is more important than anyt
Chapter 3211 Sofia Is Innocent
At Vasconcelos Fabrics, the biggest and most controversial conversation J.J. had ever had in his life was taking place. If he saw himself acting all tough and wild with Reynaldo, he wouldn’t recognize himself. Footsteps echoed down the hallway toward the office. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, man!” Reynaldo mustered the courage, hoping someone would come to save him. “Okay, it’s understandable that you don’t want to produce evidence against yourself.” J.J. smiled ironically. The office door opened, and Leonardo appeared. “Is something going on here?” “Hello, big brother!” J.J. continued in an ironic tone. “The coincidence of you showing up here is almost timed!” “Have you been drinking?” Leonardo frowned, and then looked at a terrified Reynaldo. “J.J. isn’t feeling well; it’s best to leave him alone.” Reynaldo’s expression told Leonardo what was really happening. “Alright, I need to talk to you about some matters. Have a good day, J.J.” Leonardo, in an attorney’s po
Chapter 3210 Josias Junior in Action
At Vaztrans, William questioned Sofia about the company’s finances, which are now in order since her parents stopped interfering.“Uh, I think the explanation is simple. With my father no longer here, we don’t have that urge to prove we’re always the best public transportation company in the city.” Sofia sat face to face with him. “I remember my father would always freak out when people mocked the old bus models we had.”“Yeah, and he would waste money buying expensive buses that we couldn’t afford to maintain.” William accepted this explanation for now. “So, Sofia, you wouldn’t be offended if I said your father was just playing at being a manager?”Sofia made a face. “My father managed Vaztrans since its inception. I’m here to continue his legacy.”“I know you’ll do a good job.” William leaned back in his chair. “I just want us to keep things this way now that we’re in control.”Sofia crossed her arms. “Great. I hope that doesn’t mean any insinuation on your part – or from that littl
