Here Comes the Lord Chapter 193 Someone Ordered Coffee?
Luana and Briana exchanged awkward gazes."Brie, did you order coffee?""No, did you?"Luana shook her head and turned somewhat tersely to Celia. "Thank you, dear, but we don't want coffee.""And I care about that?" Celia retorted sharply.Briana abruptly stood up, outraged by the response. "Listen here, miss, don't talk to my friend that way!"Celia smiled scornfully. "And who is she for me to 'respect' her?""She is Luana Barros, supervisor and second in command of the company, do you understand?" Briana replied authoritatively. "Take that contraption back because we didn't order coffee!""Oh, but I was informed that we were supposed to serve the employees here. I'm just being polite." Celia picked up a cup of coffee with milk that was already served.Luana also stood up, sensing trouble. "My dear, we don't want coffee." She insisted, "What's so hard to understand about that?"Celia had a weird smile as she replied, "Look, I think you two should have something to drink and eat while
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 194 Snatching the Famous Actress
At LCN headquarters, Mark and Susana were working diligently.In the president's office, Susana stood while Mark leaned comfortably in the presidential chair.Anyone seeing them like this wouldn't think that Susana was the Vice President; they would assume she was just a mere secretary.But Susana never minded that, always maintaining a servile and collaborative posture. "Lord Ferro, we have good news for you," she said, holding the tablet."You may proceed," Mark nodded slightly."We managed to contact Vivian Leite. She could be the lead in 'Colorful Kisses,' Lady Ferro's series aimed at a female audience." Susana looked at Mark, smiling in search of confirmation.Mark remained serious, but it was evident that the information pleased him inwardly. "Wasn't Vivian Leite under contract with another TV network?""Yes, she was, but the contract has expired. Several networks are clamoring for her. The LCN in Lagoon City also wanted to snag her for 'Love Spins the World.'"Mark gestured imp
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 195 It Was Really an Accident?
While Susana stepped away to continue her conversation with Vivian, Mark received another phone call."Hello?"It was one of Linda's assistants. "Lord Ferro, we received the report that Katrina Ross was in a car accident. She is being taken to the hospital.""Oh, what a shame." Mark's facial expression seemed to indicate the opposite."We'll keep an eye on it. Agent 10 is on watch to gather information.""My wife will likely want to visit the hospital to get more news. Call Vargas. We can't let our guard down." Mark ordered.Vargas was the name of the head of the gray suit team who had pushed Katrina that day and had appeared at the Braz Social Club."Understood, Lord Ferro." The assistant ended the call.At the same time, Susana finished her call with Vivian. "Phew, those in the entertainment industry can be demanding, huh? So, what happened while I was talking?"Mark had a smile on his face as he delivered the bad news, "Katrina Ross was in a car accident and is at the hospital."Ma
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 196 Splashing Coffee at the Manager
Gene sensed the suffocating atmosphere in Briana's office. "Ladies... Can I assist you with something?""Certainly, Gene." Briana pointed to her appearance.Gene was flabbergasted to notice Manager Vasconcelos completely splattered with coffee."What happened here? Or do I still need to ask?" Gene glared at Celia.She still held the cup she had used to spill the coffee.Luana wanted to make it clear, "Gene, this person showed up uninvited, argued with Manager Vasconcelos over personal matters, and ended up throwing coffee on her."In other companies, a sassy employee like her would be summarily fired.""But we're not just any company, are we?" Celia scoffed, still believing she would get away with it.Gene stepped dangerously close to Celia. "No, Glamour is an exemplary company. Come with me to my office, Celia."Celia left the cup on the coffee table and pushed it aside, shrugging at Luana and looking defiantly at Briana. "That coffee was good for cooling her heat."The door opened o
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 197 Pulling Accusation Out of Thin Air
After this witty conversation, Mark suddenly became serious, remembering another piece of news Briana needed to hear."What is it, dear?""Bri, I need you to stay calm," Mark said. "I know you don't get along with Katrina, but I don't believe you would want her dead."Briana's eyes widened and Luana felt a chill down her spine."Did something happen to Katrina?""She had a car accident and is in the hospital," Mark tried to be the understanding husband."OH MY GOD!" Briana turned pale, feeling like she was going to faint."Do you want to go see her? I can take care of the business here," Mark offered."You're probably tired, dear." Briana shook her head."Then I'll go with you—""Better not," Briana quickly responded. "It's best you stay away. My parents and uncle will definitely be at the hospital, and I don't want arguments and insults in the halls."Mark smiled internally but continued to play the role of the selfless husband. "Honey, I believe that, at least in this moment of pain
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 198 Premediated Accident
Christopher accuses Mark of having something to do with Katrina's accident. Briana and Luana are both taken aback by the sudden accusation. "Let's go somewhere else; we can't discuss this next to Katrina," Luana decides, not wanting to be reprimanded by any hospital staff. The trio leaves the room and stays in the hallway. "Where did you pull that nonsense from?" Briana frowned. "Would it be so absurd to think that someone like Mark could do something like that, cousin?" Christopher gritted his teeth as he asked accusingly. "You and Katrina haven't gotten along for years, although I could never understand why." "Come on..." Luana complains. "And your husband seems like a dedicated guy, considering how hard he tried to throw you a wedding party beyond his means," Christopher continued. "So, if you ever complained to him about the fierce competition between your shows, it's not surprising for someone who came from the slums—" "Stop, I won't let you speak about Mark like that!" Br
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 199 She Was Drunk
At Glamour, Mark was using Briana's new computer that James had bought. "James really did a good job, didn't he?" Mark said to himself, chuckling. "Couldn't he have just paid for the Lamborghini I bought?" His phone buzzed with a message notification. Mark checked the device and his smile faded. A message from Luana stated that Briana's family was accusing her of sending him to cut the brakes of Katrina's car! What an absurd accusation! Even if Mark could have arranged something like that, he hadn't done anything!This Vasconcelos family only proves that all that talk about family unity is pure nonsense! "Althea Vasconcelos, you want your granddaughter to return to the family fold to face these slurs, is that it?" Mark stood up, considering what to do. He decided it wasn't worth going to the hospital. If they were accusing him of cutting the brakes of Katrina's car, showing up at the hospital would only make things worse for Briana. So, Mark grabbed his phone and dialed Vargas
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 200 James Couldn't Help Saving Briana
Briana was watching the doctor who was 'attending' Katrina closely. Is she seeing the same leader of the men in gray at the Braz Social Club? Is she seeing the same man who pushed Katrina that day at the LCN Group, preventing her from slapping her? Why does he seem unwilling to comfort the patient's family? As if he knew Briana was in trouble once again... Briana shook her head, dismissing her suspicions. The doctor was saying what really happened, but her family was willing to distort everything. "Hey, can you all stop that?" Briana retorted, "I won't let you make unfounded accusations against me and my husband!"Is this what Grandma Althea meant about me returning to the family fold? You can consider that agreement still valid; I'll never interact with such relatives!" Turning back, Briana said, "Come on, Luana. We've fulfilled our obligation." Sandro gestured for his daughter. "Daughter, wait, let's talk." Gilson taunted him. "Are you going to hire a defense attorney? Beca

Chapter 411 I’ll Get This Divorce
Gilson returned to his office after lunch, a wave of discomfort settling over him from walking rather than resting to let his food digest. Claudia and Katrina trailed behind him, their expressions a mix of concern and frustration.“You need to rest, dear,” Claudia urged. “I don’t want you having a stroke from indigestion.”Gilson waved her off, his irritation clear. “How can I rest while OUR DAUGHTER keeps bringing us grief?”Katrina crossed her arms, defensive and unapologetic. “I simply refuse not to celebrate the best thing that’s happened to our lives!”“Briana being kidnapped,” Claudia muttered, her voice thick with disapproval.Gilson collapsed into his chair, pulling out his phone despite knowing the risks of reading while full.“I’m also pleased about a negative turn in my brother’s life,” he admitted, “but you should keep up appearances, daughter.”Katrina snatched the phone from his hand, her face twisted in fury. “Is that why you didn’t support me? Appearances?”“People don
Chapter 410 Where Briana Is
Mark and Eugene locked eyes, a shared understanding passing between them. The time to act had finally come.“They’ve already captured that idiot Adrian Curtis,” Mark said, his voice carrying the commanding tone of Lord Ferro.“Good,” Eugene replied. “How do we proceed?”Mark’s lips curled into a cold smile. “Simple. We’ll extract everything we can from him. Then, we’ll inform his perverted father that his precious son is in our possession.”Eugene hesitated. “I fear that might expose your identity, Lord Ferro.”Mark’s gaze turned icy, his voice chilling. “If Anthony puts two and two together, it will be the last calculation he ever makes.”Eugene shivered involuntarily. He should have been accustomed to Mark’s sovereign demeanor, but it never failed to send a chill down his spine.******The decrepit warehouse loomed in silence, broken only by the steady drip of water from its leaky ceiling. Sunlight filtered weakly through broken windows, casting eerie, shifting shadows on walls stai
Chapter 409 Used, Again!
Mary Ellen used her lunch break to check on Celia once more. She carefully opened the door to Celia’s room, stepping inside with quiet movements.Celia lay sprawled on the bed, her clothes wrinkled and her exhaustion displayed. Unlike her dramatic outburst with Karl, no knives or torn garments were involved this time.Her shoes were discarded in a corner, and the room was dim, the curtains drawn shut. She appeared to be sleeping deeply, the effects of the drug mercifully worn off.Relieved, Mary Ellen allowed herself a small smile and risked turning on the light.The sudden brightness made Celia stir, her body shifting restlessly as she blinked awake. Her movements were sluggish, like someone recovering from a long night out.“Celia,” Mary Ellen called softly, stepping closer. “Wake up. We need to talk.”“Urgh...” Celia groaned, rubbing her eyes and squinting against the light.Mary Ellen’s tone turned serious. “Celia, people are saying you were drugged and attacked Karl Carvalho. Is
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
