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
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 201 You Can't Crowd the Patient's Room
James decided to put an end to the nonsense, "I'll believe what the doctor said." Claudia and Gilson were left speechless and disappointed. Gilson, however, was not as shocked because his jaw still hurt. Christopher, for his part, frowned as he analyzed James, trying to understand what was going on in his mind. It seemed that James was willing to believe the doctor to defend Briana, right? It didn't matter if Katrina, his wife, got burned in the process! Indignant, he complained, "How funny, James! You prefer to believe the doctor just to save Briana. Anyone who hears you like this would think that she, not my sister, is the girl you love." James held his breath and shot Christopher a glare. Does he want war? Then there will be war! "You fools. I don't need to defend anyone," James spoke in a lower but penetrating tone. Everyone forced themselves to pay attention to him. James continued, "I don't even need the doctor's exams here. I know for a fact that Katrina was drinking
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 202 Luana's Apartment
Briana and Luana were in the suite at Rocha Hotel, getting ready for checkout. Luana was packing her bags with a hint of sadness. "What a shame, this room met all my needs." "But now you're going to another room, right, my dear friend?" Briana encouraged her, "Better yet, you have an entire apartment at your disposal." Luana shot Briana a cheeky smile. "What's that about?" Briana asked. "The apartment won't be entirely at my disposal, my dear." "What do you mean?" Briana raised her eyebrows, trying to understand what that could mean. As a slight suspicion began to form in Briana's mind, the doorbell rang. "The answer to your question has arrived," Luana joked as she went to answer. From the room, Briana could perfectly distinguish Karl's voice. She smiled in understanding. Luana and Karl were moving in together. Karl appeared with the cutest, and at the same time, most mischievous smile in the world. He could hardly wait to have an apartment just for him and Luana, where h
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 203 Enough With the Cognac
Briana returns home after visiting Luana's apartment.Regis greets her with reverence. "Good evening, Mrs. Ferro. Your husband is waiting for you in the master suite." "Hmm... Should we have dinner first?" Briana jokingly asked. Regis blushed to the roots of his hair. "He didn't inform me of the details, madam. But dinner is being prepared with great care." "Okay, I'm going upstairs. Tell Julian to keep up the great work." Briana winked and went up the stairs. She entered the master suite and found a bouquet of red roses on the king-sized bed. Overwhelmed, she melted and picked up the bouquet, inhaling the scent of the roses. Mark emerged from the closet, grinning widely, dressed in comfy loungewear. "Darling, good evening." "A little gift so you never forget me," Mark declared romantically, moving closer and kissing her cheek genuinely. Briana felt shivers run down her spine.This is the sweet and romantic man who would later make her scream and cry in bed at three in the mo
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 204 Regaining Althea's Favor
Claudia abruptly stood up and yelled, "My husband is a decent and honorable man, Althea! If this hasn't happened yet, it's because he has learned to drink responsibly!" Althea could have simply stood up and slapped Claudia, but she didn't even feel like it. She merely glanced at Gilson — a look that meant everything. "Woman, go check on dinner. I don't want okra again as an option." Claudia felt she wouldn't be able to control herself if she stayed in that hateful living room and left in quick strides. Sandro just smiled mockingly. How the tables have turned! Until last year, it was he and Nadir who were the punching bags of this house. But ever since Briana married Mark, the tide turned to his favor. Thanks to Mark? Gilson, noticing his brother's smile, wanted to take revenge. "What are you smiling about, Sandro? You still owe me an explanation for the punch." "What punch?" Althea perked up in the armchair. "Mom, Sandro punched me in the hospital corridor with a bunch of d
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 205 Stop the Imagination
Christopher kept his gaze on his phone, as if fearing that Luana wouldn't share her location. But that's not what happened. Luana sent the address. Christopher held his breath in surprise. That address... ...Wasn't it the apartment his grandmother had rushed to sell, the one where Briana, Mark, and his uncle and aunt were temporarily living after being kicked out of the Vasconcelos Mansion? Why would Luana agree to live in that rundown place? Curiosity struck Christopher harder, serving as extra motivation for him to visit. Before Christopher could leave, someone knocked on his bedroom door. Christopher decided to open it and found James outside. "Brother-in-law? What do you want?" Christopher noticed James was still in the same formal clothes he wore when he went to the hospital. "Did something happen with Katrina, any improvement or update?" "My wife is better. I'm glad to see that you're concerned too." James entered Christopher's room with a frown after making that remark

Chapter 520 Renewing a Series
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
