Here Comes the Lord Chapter 24 Job Invitation
"What's up?" Mark found it funny, "Don't you think you are capable of working at that company?"Briana thought Mark was just joking with her and smiled, "Oh, you clown! Of course, I think I am qualified, but you're forgetting two points.""Tell me." Mark sat on his bed."First, it's about that horrible place where I had a hard time... both of us did." Briana enumerated, extending her fingers, "Second, the guy who works there..."Mark shook his head. "No, dear. Didn't I tell you earlier that that matter was resolved?"Briana narrowed her eyes. "Mr. Curtis... Was he fired?""Exactly." Mark nodded."How is that possible? A man of his position... I thought you told me he was scolded, but... fired?" Briana could hardly believe it.She wanted to sue Glamour and Anthony Curtis for all the disrespect she went through.It turns out justice has been served!Briana stared at Mark. She remembered that Mark did indeed mention something as they got into the car to go to the Vasconcelos Mansion.Did
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 25 The LCN Group
Briana quickly adapted to the new company environment, impressing many with her competence as general manager.Of course, some employees like Mary Ellen were not at all pleased with the new manager, but because of the recent decisions made by the Board, she didn't want to risk expressing how she felt.Mary Ellen still couldn't forget or understand how the Board had appointed Mark Ferro, a janitor, to be the interim manager before Briana was hired...Briana, on the other hand, showed skill and authority.The gossip and time-wasting that employees were accustomed to stopped.More dismissals were applied to prevent 'rotten apples' from contaminating the rest. Gisléne refused to cooperate and was one of those dismissed.Meanwhile, under Mark’s orders, the LCN Group made a big announcement.On Monday, he, Briana, and her parents were having breakfast.Briana kept up with the news on her tablet."Look, folks! The LCN Group will receive a visit from the president!""I thought the president w
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 26 Race for Gold
While Linda drove towards the LCN group headquarters, Mark scratched his chin, thinking about the next steps to take.He intended to give Glamour exclusivity in terms of fashion and celebrity behavior.The next movie and television productions would feature Glamour promotion and consultation, benefiting Briana as the person responsible for this contract.However, to ensure this, Mark would need to resolve an issue with Frank Ross, the father of James Ross, Katrina Vasconcelos's fiancé, and the project manager of the group.Rumors circulated among some businessmen that the LCN group's project and collaboration department was extremely unjust and corrupt.No matter how good and profitable someone's proposal was: if they were not 'friends' with the project manager or did not pay a bribe, no deal was made.The agreement that the Vasconcelos family boasted of achieving was certainly possible with Frank pulling the strings.The car arrived at the entrance to the LCN headquarters. The buildi
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 27 A Vacancy for Janitor
Mark turned to them and said sarcastically, "Look at the other businessmen, they're all going in to talk to the project manager. Aren’t you too unwise to stay behind and miss your chance?"Katrina and James exchanged malicious glances.James raised his chin, "A fool like you can never understand! We're not in a hurry to go in because my father, Frank Ross, is the project manager at LCN!"So, even if all these idiots camp out in the parking lot to try to be first in line, the project my father will pay attention to is my fiancée's!"Katrina proudly held up her head at James's words and then asked disdainfully, "Hey, where is your lowly wife?"Mark sneered. "That it's not any of your business.""Well, even if you don’t say, I can still imagine how she's putting resumes around town, begging for a job and being turn down again and again!" Katrina laughed scornfully."I feel really sorry for Briana. She had no wisdom in choosing a husband worthy of her." James sneered.Mark looks at James
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 28 Kneel Before My Girl!
Mark remained with his arms crossed, closely observing this pair of fools.Was it for them that the project manager intended to approve their proposal?Mark even suspected that, without Briana around, if Grandma Vasconcelos handed over the reins of the company to Katrina, Vasconcelos Company would go bankrupt!James intervened sarcastically, "I have to correct you, my dear. This beggar is INDEED a criminal. His crime is wasting our oxygen!"Katrina glances at James. "That's why I'm giving the janitor a chance to redeem himself."If he manages to improve my mood, we can even talk to your father to let him have the janitor job."Katrina's mocking gaze and laughter revealed her true stance.James yelled at Mark, "Are you listening, janitor? Kneel before my girl!"Having had enough, Mark decided to end the conversation with an icy tone."Don't worry if I get a job or not. Unlike you, I can handle things on my own."Furthermore, if I were you, I wouldn't rely so much on the cunning and pow
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 29 Things Will Change Around Here
"Lord Ferro, what explanation will we give Frank Ross regarding his dismissal?"Mark sneers, "Tell him he and his son offended people they shouldn't have."Besides, these arbitrary decisions Mr. Ross made regarding which projects to take on are reason enough for him to never get a manager's job in the entire kingdom of Aurelia again!"Susana understood the mission and was quick to execute them.Meanwhile, James and Katrina were very confident in the waiting room along with other business people and representatives from different companies, eager to form some collaboration.Behind a glass door was the living room of the famous Frank Ross.The door opened and a not-so-attractive businesswoman with glasses came out with a frown, showing that her proposal had been rejected."Next!" Frank shouted.Frank met James' gaze and they both blinked rapidly.James whispered to Katrina, "I told you, honey! Our project is going to pass with flying colors."Katrina leaned over to her fiancé and smiled
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 30 The End of Oppression
Security guards entered the office of a reluctant Frank Ross who refused to come out from behind his desk."Who called these gorillas? I demand to speak to Susana Linz! She owes me an explanation!"How can I be fired after so many contracts I've approved?"“You mean all those rubbish contracts you've approved so far? Well, they’re all useless, and evidence of bribing are all listed here." The executive said, throwing a file at Frank’s feet.Frank was shaking with rage and grinding his teeth, but he couldn't refute all the accusations.The worst of all is that, upon realizing that the double glass door was open, everyone who was still in the waiting room heard everything!Even his son and his fiancée!The other businessmen who were waiting their turn began to express their indignation."What a shame! We were being cheated this whole time!""I'm glad the President came here to clean up this mess!""I prepared myself so well to be tricked in this game of marked cards at the end of the st
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 31 Fatal Blow
Inside the Vasconcelos mansion, Gilson and Claudia, Katrina's parents, and Grandma Althea were talking in the living room.Everyone had smiling faces, waiting for Katrina and James to just appear to announce the victory.Before they appeared, Gilson grabbed a cup of tea and raised it to the ceiling, "A toast! To the Vasconcelos Company!""Cheers!" The others exclaimed, raising their cups high, laughing heartily.After sips, Claudia sighed, "Ah, how good it feels to be on the winning side!"Althea squinted her eyes, "Claudia, is this...?""Yes, it's Nadir's pearl necklace!" Claudia responded, giggling disdainfully.Gilson looked at the entrance to the living room, "Where are they? Did they go out to a restaurant and celebrate?"Claudia shook her head, "Without giving us the news? No. They would have sent a message."Althea shrugged, "Calm down, you two! Victory is already assured. Let's update our status in Aurelia's society."Gilson gestures, putting the cup on the saucer, "Guys, I he

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
