Here Comes the Lord Chapter 178 James Wants to Attack
Mark sat in the HR office with Gene, updating him on the latest developments."Has that idiot been questioning the origins of your fancy car?" Gene asked, shaking his head.Mark smirked. "Why do people think I can't have nice things? It's always a hassle dealing with people like that, huh?""So, how are the two shows coming along?" Gene inquired."Susana has found us the best screenwriters," Mark replied confidently. "Now we just need directors, cameramen, makeup artists, and, most importantly, actors and actresses.""That's fundamental," Gene said, nodding. "The viewers will be paying attention to the details.""Exactly. But Gustavo will handle that part for us. Don't worry, Gene. Glamour will triumph," Mark assured.Gene looked curious. "What's going on? Has a new bet been made?"Mark leaned back, a sly smile forming. "You could say that. From the audio we got from the Vasconcelos Mansion, Althea is preparing to congratulate her winning granddaughter. Congratulating Briana on the su
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 179 Mark Always Wins
In Briana's office at Glamour, Mark smiled confidently, unfazed by James's heated threats."What's with that stupid grin?" James demanded, his anger intensifying."You mean YOU want to expose me to the LCN Group?" Mark asked, his tone cool and collected."Exactly! Vice President Linz won't be happy to learn that Glamour's representative is a fraud! Not to mention the public opinion! Do you really think you can get away with this?"Mark, still calm, replied, "I will."James, seething with rage, kicked the desk in frustration.As the glass from the shattered monitor crunched beneath his shoes, Mark decided to stand, avoiding the shards."Not only that," Mark added, "I'm going to charge you for the repair of Briana's computer.""Oh, don't have any money?" James shot back sarcastically. "I forgot, you live off my cousin!""And you live in a sham marriage, pretending to love Katrina when it's Briana you really care about," Mark said, his voice cutting.James froze, his eyes widening as if
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 180 Why Don't You Apologize?
In Briana's office, tension filled the air as James stared at Mark in horror, realizing the tables had turned."You can't do this," James said, his voice frantic. "This will ruin everything!"Mark's smile darkened. "Ruin what, and for whom? Oh, I get it! Grandma Althea won't be too pleased to find out her granddaughter's husband spent the honeymoon with Caribbean hookers."She'll probably order Katrina to divorce you, just like she always wanted Briana to leave me. The difference?"Katrina doesn't have Briana's backbone. She'll blindly follow her grandmother's orders and divorce you in a heartbeat.""That's ridiculous!" James shouted, desperation creeping in. "How can you be so sure?"Mark shook his head, his voice dripping with condescension. "James... Katrina is obsessed with pleasing her grandmother. She's always trying to stay in her good graces, doing everything the old matriarch asks."Briana? She never cared what that wrinkled old woman thought. How many times did Althea demand
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 181 Proposal to Cancel the Purchase
Katrina stood in the parking lot of LCN Group, causing quite a scene.Her dramatic gestures and frazzled demeanor made it look like she was on the verge of a breakdown.She was next to her car with the driver's door open, but instead of getting inside, she was glued to her phone.Meanwhile, in the office at Glamour, Mark couldn't help but smile ironically as he imagined what must be going through Katrina's mind.James, on the other hand, was a nervous wreck, sweating profusely as he realized this was his chance to keep his secret safe."Katrina?" Mark's voice was calm as he spoke into the phone.Katrina, however, couldn't hold back any longer. She exploded. "Are you out of your mind, Mark?!"Mark sighed, feigning disappointment. "Why does everyone have such a negative view of me?""You seriously want me to kneel in front of Briana and beg for forgiveness because she couldn't handle the situation?" Katrina shot back with frustration."She didn't even need to handle it! It was all about
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 182 Back to Work
Briana and Luana had recovered fully from the fierce and controversial weekend with their partners and were now focused on business.Karl was with them in the living room at Ferro House.Briana, wearing glasses and holding a clipboard, was outlining her next steps."Karl, I'm putting you in charge of the series 'Times of Glory.' We need a strong cast to captivate the male audience — although, of course, women will watch it too," Briana said.Karl flashed a sly smile. "Leave it to me."Luana nudged him playfully. "No picking out hot actresses, okay?"Karl feigned innocence. "Huh? Luana, how could you think that of me?"Briana burst into laughter, easing the tension in the room. "What's this? Am I witnessing your first couple's quarrel?"Luana, trying to regain her professionalism, said, "It's not that. We just need to be careful with the casting, especially for the lead role. It's a story about war and conflict — we can't hire skinny or unattractive actors."Briana, teasing Karl, added
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 183 Katrina Complies the Deal
Luana walked back inside, looking uneasy and suspicious.Briana and Karl noticed her expression right away."What's wrong, Luana?" Briana asked."Friend, I know I was supposed to take care of things, but you need to see this for yourself," Luana replied."See what?" Briana pressed."Katrina claims she got our address from Mark."Briana chuckled. "That's ridiculous. Luana, you know very well my husband didn't want anyone in my family knowing where we live.""Then how else could Katrina have found out? It wasn't me," Luana insisted.Karl raised his hands defensively. "Hey, don't look at me!"Briana sighed. "Alright, let's see what this drama is all about. Come on."The three of them headed toward the entrance of the house.Outside, Katrina grinned as she saw the trio approaching."Well, here come the superhero trio," she said smugly.Briana crossed her arms, already tired of the confrontation. "I'm getting really fed up with these games, Katrina. Just tell me — how did you find out wher
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 184 Explaining to His Wife
In Briana's office at Glamour, the janitor, who had worked alongside Mark, was busy sweeping up shards of glass from the broken monitor."How things change, huh, Mark?" the janitor mused. "Think I could be a manager like you someday?"Mark smiled. "If you study, go to college, and work hard, anything's possible.""Fine... But why did that guy break Manager Vasconcelos' monitor? He's gonna pay for it, right?" the janitor asked.Mark nodded, still grinning. "For sure."Just as he said this, Briana entered the room, catching the tail end of the conversation.Her eyes immediately went to her desk, where her computer was missing, and then to Mark, who was casually working on his tablet."Great," Briana said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "How am I supposed to work under these conditions?""James is getting you a new computer," Mark replied. "He thought it'd be better to pay for that than the Lamborghini."Briana's expression hardened as she walked closer to the desk.The janitor quickly
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 185 Stand By Your Man
In the coffee room, Mary Ellen sipped on her filtered water instead of coffee when suddenly, Celia burst in, nearly toppling the coffee table and everything on it."Celia! Be careful, you almost knocked over the coffee thermos!" Mary Ellen exclaimed, stepping forward.Celia, clearly frustrated, retorted, "I hope everything falls so I can get fired for it!"Mary Ellen, now closer, looked at her with concern. "You can't be serious. Come on, tell Aunt Mary Ellen what's going on."Parking the cart in the corner, Celia replied, "You're not old enough to be my aunt.""It's just a figure of speech," Mary Ellen brushed it off. "Now, tell me what's bothering you."Celia sighed deeply, her voice full of frustration. "Mark's happiness and Manager Vasconcelos really bother me. Mary Ellen, tell me what's happening to me!""You're suffering from disillusionment," Mary Ellen said calmly."Disillusionment? But how?" Celia looked shocked. "I was sure — no, I AM sure — that Mark still loves me. Why els

Chapter 408 Come Pick Up the Package
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
Chapter 407 Eye for an Eye
At Vasconcelos Company studios, the filming for "Hope Alive" continued. Alanna Torres performed center stage, her every movement captivating the crew.Off to the side, Ray Dixon stood in the shadows, his attention fixed on his phone.His face darkened as he read a message that made his jaw tighten.The director’s voice cut through the set. “And... cut! 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
Chapter 406 Mark Searches His Wife
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
Chapter 405 The Evil Plan Worked Out
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
Chapter 403 It’s a Matter of Coffee
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
Chapter 402 He’s Still My Man!
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
Chapter 401 Back to the Origins
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
Chapter 400 Taking Risks
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
