James and Katrina parked next to a ten-year-old Chevrolet, obviously in need of repairs or headed for the junkyard.

"Jeez, whose car is that? Or do I really need to ask?” James teased as they got out.

"Definitely Mark's car," Katrina smirked. "Looks like my cousin has some sense not to throw money away on him."

James laughed heartily. There's still hope for him to make a move...

If Briana isn't completely enchanted by Mark's toned body, he might finally win her over!

The almost obsessive thought of having Briana in his arms was so strong that he had to disguise an erection in his pants as he passed through the entrance turnstile.

Katrina identified herself to the receptionists, "If you read the newspapers, I'm Katrina Vasconcelos Ross and that's my husband."

"Do you have an appointment?"

"What kind of question is that? Do I need to show my ID? What a plebeian thing!"

The receptionist huffed and let the turnstile spin.

If these two cause problems, it won't be her fault.

It's

    "MARK! We need to talk today!" Mark simply lifted his head to look at the crazy couple. He furrowed his brow because he was taking the opportunity to check all matters related to his true identity. For example, there was some activities within the Alvarez family, a troublemaking family involved in dubious dealings in the underworld of Blue Cove. But this couple of his wife's cousins interrupted his concentration! With a mouse click, Mark quickly switched back to Glamour's financial spreadsheets. James saw the mouse movement and smirked maliciously. "What's up? Did we interrupt you while you were looking at naked women's websites?" James quickly leaned in closer to the computer to spy on the monitor, only to see spreadsheets. "Oh, nice disguise!" James wouldn't give up. Katrina shook her head. "That's typical of uneducated, trashy men like you, Mark! Does Briana know you have this disgusting habit?" "Disgusting is you even assuming I do something like that without knowing me

    Mark looked at James with disdain and contempt. "What are you looking at, dude?" "How dare you... HOW DARE YOU?" James didn't know how to react. He wanted to jump on Mark, but he feared he would get beaten to a pulp by the pauper. But how could he endure getting slapped by someone he considers inferior? That slap was as strong as a brass knuckle punch! It almost felt like one of his teeth got loose... Mark continued to glare dangerously at James. "Let me see if I got this straight: you two invade the office, looking for Briana to probe and try to snoop about the project she has with the LCN Group—" "That's not true!" Katrina tried to cover up. Mark remained unbothered, "And when you saw I was here, you started to insult me for no reason, and I should just stay quiet? You really don't know how to behave in society, do you? Or do you think we're all your servants?" James snorted with rage like a Spanish bull. Katrina felt she was wasting her time. "Come on, dear! Briana isn't

    Inside Glamour, an employee walked down the hallway with a look of uncertainty. He was wearing a parking uniform. Upon encountering Adrian walking in the opposite direction, the employee decided to open up to him. "Mr. Curtis!" Adrian could have walked right past, but because the employee was someone of a lower position, he stopped, thinking of the past glory when his father was at the company. "Yes?" "We captured something on the surveillance cameras, and there's real evidence in the parking lot." The employee scratched his head. "Please, tell me what it was. I'll inform management immediately," Adrian said, although inside he had other plans. If he could solve this problem on his own, perhaps the other employees would see him as capable and qualified to be the manager, just like his father was... So, he walked with the young parking attendant to the booth. Inside, one of the computers was being used to display the selected recording. "Look at this, Mr. Curtis. These people

    Group LCN, 2:55 PM. Briana, feeling more energetic and recovered, walked through the lobby with a confident and smiling demeanor. People passing by greeted her with reverence, knowing who she was. "Look, it's Miss Vasconcelos!" "What 'Miss'? She just got married, you obtuse!" "But nobody knows her husband, and she still makes headlines with her maiden name." "Good afternoon, Manager Vasconcelos!" Briana responded to everyone with a smile or a nod. As she approached the front desk, the receptionists didn't even dare to ask for identification or pose for a photo, nor did they hand over that embarrassing and eye-catching visitor badge. "Manager Vasconcelos, please proceed to floor 119." "Wow, that's high..." Briana felt a bit dizzy. The Glamour building didn't even have 30 floors... Luckily, she wouldn't see the ascent, protected by the elevator. As the elevator ascended without delay to the indicated floor, Briana held her folder with her projects. While she was resting in

    Briana and Susana were negatively surprised by this piece of information. What does this mean? Wasn't it clear that they lost the selection? "The staff at the front desk didn't inform those two that the selection had ended?" Susana asked, frowning. "Well, it seems they are quite insistent. They want to speak with the new recruitment director." Susana's assistant felt she was in a difficult position. Susana shook her head. "No. They will speak with me. It seems there are people who don't settle for a 'no'." She turned to Briana, "Manager Vasconcelos, I'm sorry to cut this meeting short, but I believe you won't want to be in the same conference room as those two." Briana was startled. "Huh? Do you know something, Vice President Linz?" "Well, I was at the Rocha Events Hall and sensed the hostility. Everyone was humiliating you, thinking that your fiancé had stood you up, right?" Susana smiled dreamily, "And then the helicopters came... Very romantic!" "I still don't know how Mark

    "What does this mean?" Susana asked with slight indignation. "A binder," James replied stupidly. "I know, but what does it contain? And why are you giving it to me?" Susana still hadn't touched the binder. Katrina continued, "Vice President Linz, you said the selection had ended. But there was a misunderstanding. We didn't even get a chance to have our project evaluated." Susana began to ponder. Yes, Frank Ross had been fired and kicked out of the company just as they were waiting. She knew this because she had been properly informed by the security guards and front desk staff. Smiling, she mentioned it, "Yes, I understand. However, it's my knowledge that you arrived in time to submit the project, but for some foolish reason, you lingered in the lobby, engaging in idle conversation, thinking you could intentionally delay it because the recruitment manager was related to you." James and Katrina felt shivers down their spines. That was something they bitterly regretted! Not onl

    Meanwhile, Briana returned to Ferro House, noticing it was empty. "Mark is still working, it seems. I need to do something to celebrate." She smiled mischievously. She decided to go to the kitchen to prepare a nice dinner. With her eyes on some recipes she found online, Briana checked the ingredients in the pantry. Had Mark already done the monthly shopping? How did they end up having almost everything? If they took too long to move here, all this food would spoil... The doorbell rang. At the same time, a text message made her phone vibrate. Briana smiled, already knowing it was Luana. Upon answering her best friend, they exchanged three kisses on each cheek. "How's your glamorous life going, my friend?" Luana looked around the house, "Wow, I still can't get used to all this luxury." "You said you were going to ask Rocha Constructions to build one for you." Briana led her to the kitchen. Luana admired the ingredients for a lasagna. "Wow! Are you preparing something special

    "Chris, where are you taking me?" Luana continued smiling, but inside, she wanted to call the police. Is the creep taking her to his bed? Is that how visitors are treated in this mansion? "I'm taking you where you HAVE to go, to my room!" Christopher replied as if it were the most natural thing in the world. "Ehr... I came to talk to Katrina!" Luana 'politely' freed herself from the scoundrel. "You can't talk to Katrina while you're underneath me, writhing in pleasure." Christopher narrowed his eyes. Why does Luana like to complicate things? Luana stepped away from the creep. "Come on, don't make me angry with you. I came to talk to your sister about the project she has for the LCN Group." Christopher instantly lost his lust, returning to normal as if someone had pressed a button. "Really? How did you know about that?" "There's no secret in the corporate world, my dear." Luana walked into the living room without waiting for him. Christopher followed Luana like a sailor encha

    A practiced smile spread across Ray’s lips, his phone still to his ear.“Come pick up the package from my dressing room,” Ray said smoothly into the phone. “It’ll be easier this way.”He ended the call and slipped the phone into his pocket, his smile growing wider.“What’s going on?” Adrian demanded. “For days now, you’ve been acting more like a spy than an actor.”Ray chuckled. “Seems like you’re the one spying here, Adrian.”“I just want to know what’s happening,” Adrian said firmly. “Now they’re saying Briana has been kidnapped. Everything is going wrong all at once. I can barely keep up!”Ray’s smile twisted into something darker. “Funny you should say that.”“Why?” Adrian asked, his voice sharp with suspicion.Before Ray could answer, the door swung open.Two men in gray suits — from Vargas’ team — entered the room, their movements efficient and purposeful.Without a word, one of them locked Adrian in a chokehold, his arm tightening around Adrian’s neck.“Hey, what’s— argh!” Adri

    At Vasconcelos Company studios, the filming for "Hope Alive" continued.

Alright, everyone, lunch break!”A collective murmur of relief rippled through the cast and crew as they dispersed.Ray wasted no time; he darted toward his dressing room, needing privacy to examine the message further.Adrian, observing Ray’s abrupt departure, frowned. Something about the actor’s demeanor felt off.Turning to Gilson Vasconcelos, he broached the subject cautiously.“We’ll make it, Adrian,” Gilson said without Adrian or someone else asked him first.“Mr. Vasconcelos, how is your son?” Adrian asked, his concern shifting to another matter.Gilson’s expression hardened. “The ungrateful boy decided to return to university wi

    Mark sprinted through the Glamour parking lot like a man possessed, his eyes darting between cars.Every vehicle he saw belonged to someone he knew—employees, executives, people with no reason to be involved.His frustration mounted as he reached the guard booth.Inside, Mauro, the usual attendant, slid the tinted window open.“Yes, Manager Ferro?” Mauro asked, his voice tinged with curiosity.“Did you see a car speeding out of here, carrying my wife?” Mark’s words were clipped, his tone sharp.Mauro’s jaw dropped, and his face paled. “No, Manager Ferro! No car came through here in a rush. If there had been a commotion, we’d have seen it and called the police!”“What about Viviana?” Mark pressed.“I haven’t seen her pass either,” Mauro admitted.Mark shook his head, his expression darkening further.******At Karl and Luana’s apartment, Luana entered the living room, rubbing her neck as the effects of the drug began to set in.Karl stood nearby, awkwardly clutching her blazer around h

    Briana worked diligently at her computer, oblivious to the chaos unfolding outside.She paused her typing and reached for her coffee.The steam curling from the cup hinted at its freshness, but before she could take a sip...The door burst open with a force that made it seem like it had been kicked in.Briana nearly jumped out of her chair in fright.The same henchmen from the day before entered, their expressions dark and menacing.Without hesitation, they approached Briana and yanked her out of her seat. She struggled fiercely against their grip.“Hey, what’s going on? Who are you?!” Briana shouted.“Sorry, miss. Boss’s orders,” one of the henchmen replied gruffly.“HELP!” Briana screamed.One of the men quickly gagged her while the other held her tightly. Despite her muffled protests and frantic thrashing, they subdued her with practiced ease.One of them glanced at her desk. From his point of view, the steaming coffee cup sat untouched.“She didn’t drink it,” he noted.“Doesn’t ma

    Briana and Luana were chatting animatedly about work, each seated at their desks. Luana shook her thermos, frowning at the emptiness.“Where’s the coffee lady?” Luana muttered.A soft ding came from Briana’s phone. She checked it and smiled. “Mark says she just dropped off fresh coffee for him and Karl.”Luana’s head shot up. “Karl! Oh, he’s here? That dog didn’t call me...”Briana’s smile faded as she stood. “He didn’t call you?”Luana shook her head, her expression turning serious. “And he didn’t come home last night.”“That’s odd,” Briana replied, frowning. “You should go to their office and see what’s going on.”Luana stood as well, her determination clear.As she opened the door, she nearly collided with Viviana, who was entering with the coffee cart.“Coffee, ladies,” Viviana announced with a saccharine smile.Luana’s tone turned sharp. “I hope your boss told you that you’ve been serving us old coffee while giving the fresh brew to the men.”Viviana’s jaw tightened, her teeth cl

    Mark entered his old, dimly lit apartment, greeted by Regis at the door.Lord Ferro’s expression was cold and detached, as if the matter at hand — Christopher’s life — was of little significance.“He’s in the bedroom, getting dressed,” Regis informed him.Mark’s tone was sharp. “Isn’t he ready yet?”Regis smirked faintly and disappeared into the bedroom.Moments later, he and Vargas reappeared, dragging Christopher into the living room.Christopher’s shirtless torso and haphazardly zipped pants betrayed his interrupted efforts to dress.“Hey, I wasn’t done getting dressed— what the hell are you doing here?” Christopher demanded. “I’ve already told them everything I know!”Mark’s voice was calm, yet chilling. “I just want to make sure you understand your situation, Christopher.”A shiver ran down Christopher’s spine. “I thought Alan Campos Rocha was handling this. Who are you, really, Mark?”Mark’s gaze didn’t waver. “I am exactly what you see.”Christopher’s indignation flared. “No sl

    Mark’s Old Apartment.Regis tossed a blanket over Christopher, covering him from the waist down. The gesture did little to alleviate Christopher’s discomfort, his unease palpable in the stale air of the room.Meanwhile, Vargas reappeared, dustpan in hand, sweeping up the pile of dirt he had gathered.“Did you come here as hitmen or housemaids?” Christopher quipped, his sarcasm cutting through the silence.Vargas scowled. “Hey, you’re not in a position to be making jokes, smartass!”A faint smile tugged at Christopher’s lips. At least he still had his wit.Regis, unamused, turned to him with a stern expression. “Mr. Vasconcelos, have you reflected on the consequences of your actions?”Christopher’s reply was quick and deflective. “I just wanted to return to my studies.”“Without saying goodbye to your family? Without confessing the truth that could set you free?” Regis pressed.Christopher smirked bitterly. “I don’t exactly feel liberated right now.”Regis remained impassive. “Mr. Vasc

    The apartment where Mark and Celia once lived still bore the marks of abandonment and poverty, worsened now by neglect and the absence of constant care.The air was heavy, the space cluttered. Yet, Vargas lounged on the dingy couch, idly scrolling through his phone, his lips curling into a faint smile as he chuckled at a comedic reel.The front door creaked open, and Regis stepped inside.His nose wrinkled in distaste at the sight of the disheveled apartment.The instincts of a butler immediately kicked in, compelling him to search for a broom as he passed Vargas, who remained engrossed in his phone.The trending dance music playing from Vargas’s phone added to the room’s chaotic ambiance.Moments later, Regis returned with a battered broom, its bristles worn and frayed.“Is this all we have?” he asked, holding up the broom in dismay.Vargas finally looked up, surprised. “Hey, we’re not here to clean. We’re here to watch over our prisoner.”Regis shot him a stern glare. “Get off that

    The next morning dawned over Braspolis with a soft glow, the aerial view of the city bathed in golden light. The day promised a mix of tranquility and tension, a contrast that echoed in the lives of its inhabitants.Mark and Briana lay nestled together in the comfort of their bed. The silence of the room was abruptly interrupted by the simultaneous blaring of their phone alarms, making any attempt to continue sleeping impossible.Briana groaned. “Wow, who can sleep with this going on?”Mark chuckled softly. “No one. That’s the point.”Reluctantly, Mark reached over to silence his alarm while Briana did the same on her side.With a resigned sigh, she swung her legs over the edge of the bed and slipped her feet into her slippers.“I wonder how things are with my family right now,” she murmured, her gaze distant.Mark, still searching for his boxers, glanced at her. “You’re dying to find out, aren’t you? Why don’t you just go over there?”Briana turned to face him, catching the implicati
