"Josias! I thought we were friends!" Beto exclaims.
"I thought we were friends until you stabbed me in the back!" Josias charges Beto, "Why did you decide to harm my brother-in-law?"
Beto closes the door and sits in the armchair with a disdainful attitude, "What? I didn't harm you at all. Our battle was against William Campos."
"Whoever harms someone in my family harms me." Josias replies seriously, "You were messing with my wife's brother."
"And your lazy, slacker brother-in-law was bothering my wife and daughter!" Beto raves as he kicks off his shoes, "William broke the deal and it was a failure as a father! My wife had every right."
Josias gives a wry smile, "If you were right, why did you bribe the judge?"
"I was sure you would try to meddle!" Beto screams.

Chapter 3226 The Nickname as a Trigger
At Crystal Blue, the restaurant was still closed, but Suzy was there at the bar, having a drink in celebration. Diane was the one who prepared two shots, both toasting. “A toast to success and personal fulfillment, my future daughter-in-law!” They both drank. Suzy took a deep breath. “What a relief! It’s so good to be victorious!” “It really is a wonderful feeling.” Diane nodded. “Now, do you think the annoying people will finally leave you alone?” “No, of course not! It seems the war is going to intensify even more.” Suzy replied excitedly. “And you are confident that you can fight, win?” “Of course! I have the truth on my side.” Suzy took another sip. “It all started with Sofia discussing salary increases in front of the employees.” “I feel like she did that on purpose, huh?” Diane raised her eyebrows suspiciously. “Yes, I see it that way, too, after thinking it through. What a coincidence that Sofia heated up the discussion just as I showed up warning against making too ma
Chapter 3225 Counterattack Effect
In the next issue of ‘Maggiezine,’ Suzy Cogo was the big sensation, gracing the cover with a smiling, confident photo, hands on her hips, and a stance that suggested she was ready for battle. The article attracted the attention of thousands, with sales and online access tripling in spreadsheets and counters sales. Whereas Suzy had previously reacted with fury and rage, now she danced in the kitchen without knocking over the table or breakfast. Jake improvised dance steps with his sister while Eugenio read the article with exaggerated pride. “‘Therefore, it was never my intention to imply that I don’t care about my employees’ salaries. I support administrative discussions to check if Vaztrans has the appropriate funds to fulfill our promises.’ Wow, niece, with that one sentence, you dismantled the whole narrative!” “Didn’t I tell you, uncle? The journalist was very competent.” Jake remarked, “He used his fingers to do good, unlike that other guy.” Eugenio closed the magazine and

Hello, so good to see you!”“João Paulo, we need to talk urgently.” Melissa closed the door.“I see.” João Paulo’s smile faded. “Josias sent you to scold me.”“Believe me, Josias is trying his best not to come here and give you a few slaps.” Melissa approached his desk.“Why would he bother? I’m fine.” João Paulo placed his hands behind his neck.“No, you’re reigniting a war that you won’t be able to handle.” Melissa warned him lovingly. “Josias won’t protect you if Suzy Cogo asks for compensation again.”“That girl wants to get rich at my expense?” João Paulo scoffed.“No. You’re the one giving her the chance. Stop these articles, João Paulo, and she will leave you alone.”João Paulo grew more serious. “She and her boyfriend came here, insulted me, I was slapped, and insulted my wife. With my father’s death, I couldn’t take my revenge.”“But you’re back, with the chance to

Your son is all grown up, sporting a beard! Your husband said that while I watched him serve coffee to me. Is he going to inherit Marçal Publishing Company?”Maggie smiled like every proud mother. “Yes, he is. And you’re right. No matter how much I still see my son as a baby, he’s eighteen now, reaching legal age. We have many plans for him...”Suzy was surprised. Henrique is already eighteen?“Well, let’s get to the main topic.” Suzy shook her head. “Can you save a page where I can tell some truths to that crowd that hates me?”Maggie smiled mischievously. “I might even give you a cover article, my dear!”“I would appreciate that opportunity.

Josias and William entered the latter’s office, while the former huffed and held back from punching someone. “Hey, hey, hey...” William closed the door before Josias decided to leave. “Don’t be mad about what Daryl said.” “I think I’m more outraged by the fact that he called João Paulo ‘half-brother.’” Josias clenched his fists and took a deep breath. “You know I hate that term, William!” “Yes, since the ‘80s.” William chuckled. “We’ve been on this life road for a long time, huh?” Josias calmed down and smiled slightly. “That’s true... you were a teenager, fifteen years old, now you’re forty-seven.” “And my son is married; soon I’ll have grandkids to spoil.” William sighed. “Josias, I don’t think I’ve ever thanked you enough for that.” “Thank me?” Josias gestured modestly, dismissing the idea. “Don’t be like that!” William insisted. “If it weren’t for you taking care of Caio, can you imagine what he would be today? Maybe he’d be in jail for getting involved with organized crime

At Vaztrans, Daryl felt that Josias was eager to revive their rivalry through a misunderstanding. “Josias, what the hell are you doing here? Wanting to relive old times?” Josias raised his index finger, retorting fiercely, “You’re the one trying to stir up trouble with an interview like that!” “Wait a minute! I never intended to tarnish Suzy’s image! It was your mischievous and Machiavellian brother who was taking notes without letting me see.” Daryl frowned. William held his breath. Sofia smiled slightly but then became serious. “Well, dear father-in-law, you see that your brother decided to create this confusion on his own.” “What’s your opinion on this, Sofia?” Josias asked her. “I was totally in favor of giving at least a bonus to the employees here,” Sofia replied smartly after seeing Daryl encouraging her with a look. “But Suzy suddenly showed up saying that it would be impossible and reckless. Obviously, the workers who were listening became upset and started commenting

William and Josias entered.“Good morning, everyone! Why do you look like you just came from a funeral?”Josias was surprised by the reception. “Aren’t you worried about the terrible repercussions my brother’s article is causing at Vaztrans?”William asked anxiously, “Have the employees already called for a strike?”Sofia, winking, stopped typing and stood up. “No. They’re eager for their bonuses.”Josias frowned, temporarily confused. “Wait, I thought Suzy had blocked any raises or bonuses for the employees.”Sofia defiantly lifted her chin. “But who does Suzy think she is? She doesn’t own the company. She’s

Neilton brought the black coffee.“We don’t have .22 caliber bullets.” Neilton joked and hurriedly walked away.Luís took a few sips of coffee and turned to Maggie. “You want to interview Suzy so she can present her side?”“That’s right!” Maggie’s eyes sparkled. “I was thinking about that possibility. After all, she won’t have the right to respond in João Paulo’s column.”“If he wants war, let’s have it!” Luís smiled mischievously.“So do I have your permission?” Maggie raised her eyebrows.“You have more than that.” Luís straightened up. “I’ll talk to Suzy myself
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
