"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!

    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

    Mark showed up in the parking lot to find his car in the same condition it was left by James. He paused for a few seconds, assessing the damage and reaching a conclusion about the culprit. "James... So predictable..." Who else had left the Glamour building angry with him? Not caring much about it, Mark picked up his phone and dialed Linda. "Yes, Lord Ferro?" "Arrange to have my car repaired. It was vandalized here in the Glamour parking lot." "Oh, dear, who is tired of living?" Linda reacted with outrage at such absurdity. If these people only knew who they were dealing with... "Provide me with another car. I need to go home; Lady Ferro sent me a message." Linda, aware of what Briana had done, smiled in agreement. Most likely, Lady Ferro did something to celebrate her victory and sent a romantic message to Lord Ferro! But Lord Ferro, eager to meet his beloved wife, found his car vandalized! Thinking about it, Linda arranged for one of her assistants to drive that red Asto

  • Here Comes the Lord   Chapter 129 Celebration Dinner

    Mark followed the aroma to the kitchen and found Briana in a red dress with a generous neckline and no straps, smiling lovingly at her husband who had just arrived. "Hello, darling. Welcome to our celebration dinner." Mark already knew the outcome of her day, but he went along with the act. Smiling at the prepared dishes and two lit red candles, he asked, "I need to ask you how your day was?" "Oh, you can ask; I'll let you." Briana joked, moving closer to him. "Congratulations, Briana. You're a natural talent." Mark hugged and kissed her. Mark was impressed. It wasn't just because he supported Briana from the shadows. Briana was truly a talented person, yet her family never gave her the recognition she deserved. For some unknown reason, the spotlight always went to that weirdo Katrina. After the kiss, Briana urged him, "Come on, go up, take a nice shower, and come eat. I'll be waiting for you." "OK." Mark nodded and left. He went upstairs to the master suite. As he passed

    At Vasconcelos Mansion, an utterly unpleasant scene was occurring. Sandro and Nadir thought about talking privately with Althea but found themselves in the midst of a family celebration. A family celebration... Without them and Briana... Still, it seems Althea only admitted them to the mansion to rub another victory of Katrina in their faces. Nadir, indignant about this, looked at Claudia and noticed her pearl necklace. "HEY! That's my necklace! Give it back immediately, you thief!" Nadir jumped from her chair like a wild animal and ran at Claudia, ready to cut her throat if necessary to regain her precious pearl necklace! Claudia also stood up and tried to back away. "Hey, stay away, you disqualified!" "NADIR! QUIET!" Althea ordered regally. Gilson stood up to defend his wife while Clóvis held Nadir, who was seething with rage. "Hey, man, are you not going to hold your wild wife?" Gilson questioned Sandro in a mix of perplexity and mockery. "I will not. My wife is right."

    The next day, Briana was once again devastated and lying in bed while Mark watched the sunrise, leaning against the balcony railing, looking cheerful and relaxed. Briana, frowning in pain all over her body, was seriously considering taking a tonic or joining a gym to keep up with her husband! Briana's phone rang. Mark quickly went in and checked the device. "It's your dad. Do you want to answer?" Briana didn't respond right away, hypnotized by Mark's muscular build, clad only in a striped boxer shorts. "Sweetheart?" Mark didn't take the hint this time. Briana snapped out of her naughty daydreams. "Um... Maybe my dad wants to talk peacefully." Mark handed her the phone, and Briana answered, "Hello?" On the other end, Sandro was wearing a tacky pajama while Nadir was in their suite's bathroom. "Daughter, why did you take so long to answer?" "Dad, do I really need to say?" Briana smiled mischievously, "Mark and I were in the process of giving you grandkids." Sandro felt a wave

    "Don't you feel that way?" Mark asked affectionately. Briana softened her gaze, looking like a little girl waiting for her dad to return from work to hug him. "No, Mark. I may seem naive, but I really felt like my dad was being sincere with me, just telling me what happened to him without any ulterior motive." "I admire your faith in humanity, dear." Mark stroked her hair. "And you, do you not have that faith?" Briana was intrigued to uncover another facet of her husband. "Well, unfortunately, because of my past..." Mark chose his words carefully. "My life hasn't been easy." "Are you referring to poverty?" Briana probed further, "I remember when we just got married, you went to your old apartment to get your things. It was a pretty rundown complex, if I may say." Mark smiled. "Yes, I allow that. I have no issue with that. Anyway, let's keep an eye out, shall we?" Briana crossed her arms. "The one who is really trying to behave out of her character is Grandma Althea. Yesterday,

    Moments later, Adrian enters HR, unsuspecting and greeted by an effusive Gene. "Supervisor Curtis, it's always a pleasure to discuss matters with you. At this rate, you'll be a constant presence in this room!" "Really, Gene? What does that mean?" Adrian asks, like a lamb headed to slaughter. "Come in, take a seat!" Gene internally belittles Adrian's demeanor. The guy causes trouble at the company, gets called to HR, and doesn't suspect for a moment why he's there! Does the idiot think he'll get promoted? Sitting across from one another, Gene begins, "Look, Supervisor Curtis, what I'm about to tell you may come as a shock." "Go ahead, nothing surprises me anymore in this world." Adrian grins broadly, "Am I getting promoted?" Gene drops the fake smile. This is too much! "Supervisor Curtis, do you really feel that confident that you deserve a promotion?" Gene asks with caustic aggression. Adrian jolts, finally realizing he wasn't called in for praise. "Huh? What's going on her

    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

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

  • Chapter 403 Glamour’s Dress Code

    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
