Here Comes the Lord Chapter 111 Demoted from Position
Meanwhile, Mark was talking to Gene in HR. He took advantage of the fact that other employees in the department were on their snack break. "Lord Ferro, now that we're alone, are you really going to accept the mission Lady Ferro assigned you?" Mark smiled, nodding. "Yes, I'll take care of her Glamour project, and I'll use it to get closer to the LCN Group and Susana Linz." "Therefore, your mission to bring professional success to your beloved wife will continue, becoming easier," Gene concluded with chuckles. Life's twists and turns... Unexpected and intriguing! "Yes, and add to that the downfall of the Vasconcelos family," Mark commented with a smile, although his tone was dark. "They still don't know what awaits them." "Do you think they will try a 'reconciliation' now that they've seen you can achieve the impossible?" Gene asked with interest. "Certainly. Earlier today, I went with Briana to pick up our things from her parents' apartment, and they informed us that the tyrant
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 112 Celia Tried to Convince
Celia nearly fell to the ground like a sack of manure after being slapped by her superior.With her hand holding her face, she exclaims in horror, "What is happening here? Manager Vasconcelos, do you think I will tolerate this kind of abuse?"Briana regains her composure. "Celia, it's best you accept my decision. I'm being more than generous by not firing you immediately. Before I slapped you, you were about to insult me with curses, am I right or am I right?"Celia swallows her words. There was no denying that.Briana smiles victoriously. "That's what I thought. Please stop by HR and inform them of your demotion. If things are not different by tomorrow, your presence in Glamour will be terminated."Not knowing how to complain or protest any further, Celia leaves the management office, defeated and incredulous.Briana smiled even wider, resting her hands on her chin.'Matt, today you achieved justice.'Meanwhile, Mark and Gene were discussing other matters."Gene, I need to investigat
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 113 The Difference Between the Two Men
Celia walks through the corridors, dazed, as if she is anesthetized or having an absence seizure.Adrian approaches her. It was getting dark, and many employees showed up to clock out and go home."Sweetheart, what happened?" Adrian, always sharp, embraces Celia in front of the other employees.The employees smile, thinking this couple always acted sweet and affectionate at all times.Celia, however, does not return the embrace, continuing to act catatonic."Celia, you're worrying me!""Let's go," Celia finally asks."Okay, let's go home. Today I want pepperoni pizza." Adrian licks his lips, acting as if he hadn't eaten pizza in ten years.As they passed through the exit turnstile, Celia couldn't help but make more comparisons.From what she saw of Mark in that simple business suit, he still maintained a fit body and a toned stomach.But Adrian, always the chubby one with a terrible appearance, made a point of announcing that he wanted pepperoni pizza for dinner... even though he had
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 114 Briana Has Been a Bad Girl
Briana and Mark returned to the Ferro House.The loneliness of the house made their footsteps echo throughout the vast residence.Mark commented, "Dear, we need to have some employees to maintain order in this house. You won't be able to wash, iron, cook, and clean everything by yourself, will you?"Briana turns to him, smiling mischievously. "I was hoping to count on my husband's help."Mark immediately hugs Briana, laughing at the joke. "That hurts my male pride, dear! I need to teach you a lesson!""Ha, ha, ha!" Briana laughs more and more. "I've been a bad girl, huh?""Of course!" Mark responds with a mix of playfulness and lust.Him, the Grand Lord Ferro, dealing with washing dishes and laundry? Come on!That was the life he had with Celia, but the sabbatical year was over!Not revealing his identity is one thing; but continuing to live in misery is something else entirely!Mark took his beloved wife by the arms and led her to the master suite.Hours later, screams, roars, cries,
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 115 New Goals for Mark
The next day, Mark woke up and stretched with a broad smile, pleased to have enjoyed another night with his beloved wife.Briana, however, was so tired and satisfied that not even a band playing the National Anthem next to her would wake her up.Thinking of this, Mark picked up his cellphone from his bedside table and sent a message to Susana postponing their meeting.There was no way Briana would meet with Susana at 9:00 AM.Satisfied, Mark went out to the balcony to admire the view that stretched before him.Who would have thought things would turn out this way?During his youth, Mark knew nothing but the chaotic backdrop of war. This was a reality he had grown accustomed to.His victories and promotions that led him to the highest echelons of the Aurelia Military Forces gave him satisfaction and purpose in life.However, it was time for him to seek new horizons.Living his year off as an ordinary citizen, giving up all the luxury and fame he had earned through battles, provided him
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 116 The People Prefer to Work
Mary Ellen leaned in to hear Mark's Great Secret about how he managed to rise from janitor to management.But Mark only whispered, "None of your business!"Mary Ellen straightened up with eyes blazing with hatred. "MARK FERRO! You half-wit!"Gene turned the corner and found the scene, deciding to intervene immediately, "Enough, Mary Ellen! Are you tired of working in the company? I haven't gone a week without firing someone who messes with Mark! What an unreasonable hatred is this, folks?"Mary Ellen turned to Gene, "HR Manager, we need an explanation for why Celia was punished! She was unjustly demoted back to her former position, and—""SHUT UP!" Gene ordered imperiously. "I see Celia didn't tell the whole story. But if you're so supportive of her, how about both of you take the same position?"Mary Ellen felt her eyes popping out of their sockets.WHAT? She, Mary Ellen, serving coffee like a maid?No way! I didn't slog through four years of Fashion school to cater and cook!Suddenl
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 117 Spicy Details
"Grandma Althea, I'm very busy. As you know, I won that selection the LCN Group launched weeks ago. Today I'm meeting with the Vice President." Briana stood up from the table."Yes, my granddaughter, and I intended to congratulate you." Althea smiled in satisfaction.Briana felt that the enthusiasm was not genuine and boldly retorted, "You couldn't call me earlier because the isolated island where I moaned and cried in pleasure didn't have adequate cellphone signal.""BRIANA!" Althea felt like she was going to have a heart attack.Why was Briana being so rude?If Briana had married one of the young masters she had in mind, her granddaughter would still be sweet and obedient.It's clear that Mark Ferro has no control over the wife he doesn't deserve!Briana pretended not to understand the reason for her tyrant grandmother's exasperation. "What's the matter, Grandma? Didn't you have a pleasurable honeymoon with my late grandfather? After all, my dad and uncle Gilson weren't born through
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 118 Katrina's Strategy
Katrina thought for a moment and made her decision."Grandma, if you're worried about the situation with the Vasconcelos family—""There is no 'if', I will always be worried!" Althea corrected her sternly.Katrina caught her breath. "OK, then James and I will go to the LCN Group today to try again."Althea suddenly smiled, hopeful. "Oh, my granddaughter, would you do that for your old grandmother? I still believe that you and James wouldn't be turned down if given the chance to present your project!"Katrina felt the same way.It was never about Katrina and James getting their project rejected.They never got the chance to present it!Before it was their turn, Frank Ross was fired in that melodramatic fashion.Katrina had never come to terms with that.To add insult to injury, Briana was the big winner when Katrina had no idea she was working at Glamour.Thinking about this, Katrina wondered, "Glamour isn't thinking about stepping out of its comfort zone in fashion and investing in te

Meanwhile, at the Dixon Penthouse, Ray Dixon lounged poolside, basking in the afternoon sun. Sunglasses shaded his eyes as he flipped through the script for his upcoming single-camera sitcom. The vibe was easygoing — until his phone buzzed.The screen lit up with the name GERENTE FERRO. Ray had deliberately saved the contact under that name, knowing that if anyone else happened to glimpse his screen, they wouldn’t read “LORD Ferro.” Better to be safe than scandalized.He answered coolly. “Hello?”Mark dragged out a chair and sat, phone pressed to his ear.“Hello,” he said smoothly. “How’s it going? Have they slandered you yet?”On the other end, Ray chuckled. “Nah. Linda’s boys probably have their asses glued to their seats, deleting every little rumor.”“I’m sure,” Mark replied, his tone calm but cautious. “Still, it never hurts to be prepared. Here’s what I suggest — get a statement ready. Something you can release if someone does manage to stir up a scandal.”“Got it,” Ray said. Th
Chapter 519 Grasping His Jealousy
Gilson flopped into the seat, exhaling sharply.“Alright. You barely signed the sponsorship contract, and now you’re already looking to back out over some gossip piece that doesn’t even mention my daughter?”Lawrence’s expression darkened. “It doesn’t mention your daughter yet. But social media is brimming with implications.”Gilson scoffed. “You should be smart enough not to give Internet rumors any credit.”“Not everything said on the Internet is false, Gilson,” Lawrence replied, his voice even but firm.That forced Gilson to pause. He swallowed hard, and then nodded reluctantly. “Fine. So you’re choosing to believe the lies they’re spreading?”“I’m asking for a good reason to stay in this partnership,” Lawrence said, leaning forward. “I’m not looking to bail out. I want to see the third season of You Can’t Buy Happiness.”Gilson cleared his throat — loudly and unnecessarily — as he weighed his words. He knew this was serious business.“You know my niece Briana was heading up that p
Chapter 518 Selecting Comments
“Well,” Luana said smugly, “looks like she got the message.”“What message?!” Briana’s voice rose, sharp with exasperation.“That she can have as many guys as she wants — as long as she leaves mine alone.”“Luana,” Briana said, trying to keep her cool, “maybe Celia never had eyes for Karl in the first place.”Feigning reasonableness, Luana nodded slowly. “Yeah, of course. Now that she’s locked up in Jake Brett’s dressing room getting ‘pounded’ by one of those endless hunks from Times of Glory, I’m totally at peace.”Briana blinked, stunned by the venom in Luana’s tone. “It hasn’t crossed your mind that Celia and Jake might actually have something... real? Solid and healthy?”Luana scoffed with the kind of contempt that only she could master. “Brie, you’re sweet. Innocent. But women like Celia aren’t for marrying and raising kids. That’s why Mark dumped her for you.”Briana opened her mouth to correct her — that it had actually been the other way around — but honestly, she didn’t have
Chapter 517 Celia Is Moving On (?)
Celia stepped inside the dressing room of actor Jake at Glamour Studios, late afternoon, without knocking.From her point of view, she walked in at the exact moment Jake was completely naked, squatting with his smooth, round backside fully exposed in her direction — like a baby’s.Bursting into laughter, Celia couldn’t hold back. “Ha, ha, ha... If I had my phone right now...”But Jake didn’t flinch, not even a little. His reaction, or rather the lack of it, made it clear this wasn’t the first time a woman had walked in on him mid-change.Still turned away, he casually reached for a pair of jeans and began pulling them on.“Something for me?” he asked with calm familiarity.Switching into assistant mode, Celia checked the clipboard in her hand. “You’re done for today. But tomorrow’s got more. Do you have the script for the next episode?”Jake turned to her with an easy smile, then gestured toward his vanity.On the vanity, the script sat fresh and untouched, its crisp pages practically
Chapter 516 It's Showtime
Outside the Glamour Studios in the soft haze of late afternoon, Karl wandered through the active set of Times of Glory. Just ahead, a medieval-themed scene was in full swing.Actors, dressed as villagers and warriors of a bygone age, performed fluently without cue cards, their lines clearly memorized and rehearsed. Camera operators moved with precision, capturing the best angles while the head writer monitored the script closely, making sure every detail aligned with the original plan.Nearby, the makeup artists took a brief pause from their usual duties to admire the view — specifically, one of the actors clad in an open leather vest that showcased a chiseled, lightly hairy chest. Another actor, dressed as a warrior, gripped a faux sword that looked startlingly real at first glance.Celia arrived on set, walking quietly to avoid disrupting the scene. She knew the rules — any interruption would get her thrown off the set by the director, and Karl wouldn’t hesitate to report her to Bri
Chapter 515 Not Involved in Debauchery
Meanwhile, back at the Vasconcelos Company, the tension was mounting in Gilson’s office. Katrina’s cellphone rang incessantly from the corner where she had thrown her purse. Claudia sat on the sofa with her hands over her ears, while Gilson stood nearby, breathing heavily with mounting stress.“Darling...” Claudia began gently.“I’LL ANSWER THE DAMN THING!” Gilson snapped, exasperated.He marched over, bent down, and retrieved the purse.Just as he grabbed the phone, the ringing stopped.Gilson stared at the silent device like it had personally insulted him.And then, from the desk behind him, the landline phone started ringing.Claudia gasped. “It’s him!”“Let’s see what this is about,” Gilson muttered, rushing over like a sprinter. He picked up the receiver with a bit too much enthusiasm.“HELLO?” he barked.At the other end, in his office at Sodré Bank, Lawrence Sodré was back at his desk, dressed once again in his suit and tie. His secretary lingered nearby, beaming with barely re
Chapter 514 Desperation in Calamity
“Katrina!” Gilson barked. “Are you trying to kill me?”Katrina shot her mother a questioning look, silently mouthing “Is he mad about the door?”Claudia, exasperated, tried to redirect. “Daughter, did you see the noon news?”“I might’ve glanced at it,” Katrina replied with blasé sarcasm. “Mary Ellen, that Glamour employee, woke up from her coma after getting a plate to the head from Luana Barros. The same skank Christopher’s been lusting after for years.”Gilson’s fists tightened, rage simmering.“That’s not the story,” he said through gritted teeth, rising slowly to his feet. “We’re talking about the nightclub where you were filmed dancing with Ray Dixon. It’s been shut down. Turns out it was part of the same criminal scheme as Red Light.”Katrina went cold.She felt a freezing sensation in her chest, as though her heart had stopped mid-beat. Her eyes widened, staring ahead blankly as the magnitude of the situation hit her. Her mind flashed to the lucrative partnership pending with S
Chapter 513 Fantasy
As she walked away, Celia couldn’t help but wonder what — or who — Mark was so invested in on his screen. Was it a message from Briana?She gave a little shrug, brushing the thought aside. Her mind was already elsewhere.In her imagination, the setting shifted to a lush green field, open and sunlit. There, Karl appeared, walking in slow motion like a vision from a risqué fantasy. His shirt was unbuttoned, revealing a chiseled torso and sculpted abs as if carved from marble. He wore loose, rustic brown trousers slung low on his hips, clearly without underwear, each step making that painfully obvious. Barefoot, he moved across the grass, his gaze locked on hers, seductive and inviting — as if about to kiss her... or more.The fantasy dissolved.On Celia’s face — her smirk mischievous, eyes filled with naughty determination.The ding of the elevator brought her back to reality. Celia entered the elevator. She turned just before the doors closed, still grinning mischievously, pressing a b
Chapter 512 Another Nightclub Is Shut Down
Briana stepped into the restaurant, greeted warmly by the maître d’ at the entrance. The blast of cool air from the AC offered a welcome contrast to the heat outside, prompting her to pause and savor the momentary relief.But as she moved further into the dining area, a shift in the atmosphere became impossible to ignore.From her perspective, it was clear — several staff members and diners turned to look at her, some with hesitance, others with thinly veiled hostility.A handful didn’t bother hiding their resentment, eyes narrow and judgmental. Briana pressed her lips together in a tight line.She understood the message.Composing herself, she made her way to the food station, picked up a shallow plate, and began serving herself from the day’s offerings — white rice, beans, chicken lasagna, fries, potato salad, and quail eggs topped with pink sauce.She moved to the scale, where the young man who usually greeted her with familiarity now remained silent. He weighed the plate and hande
