Here Comes the Lord Chapter 275 Getting Pregnant Before Briana?
James is incredulous when Adrian proposes to be smarter than Mark. “Dude, I don’t want to insult you,” James says while insulting Adrian anyway, “But Mark seems to be omnipresent and omnipotent. He seems to be everywhere at once, knowing everything and everyone, always two steps ahead of humanity.” Adrian purses his lips, incredulous. “Jeez, are you telling me that Mark is some kind of God?” “Maybe!” James grunted, “Maybe that explains why Briana insists on having a guy like him!” Adrian smiled lewdly. “I told you, man: it’s the size of the ‘tool’ that the guy uses on her every night without fail!” James kicks the desk in a fiery rage. “You must have taken a day off to think about dirty stuff today, huh? Is this because you don’t have a girlfriend? Why don’t you make up with yours?” Adrian’s lewd smile faded, feeling his weak spot hit. “It turns out Celia suffers from the same affliction as Briana: she can’t get over Mark.” “She was the one who dumped him to be with you!” James
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 276 Our Women Were Bad and Need to Be Punished
Adrian and Anthony returned to the still messy and turned-over apartment. “Oh man. We’re going to have to call a cleaner tomorrow. Can you take care of that for me, Dad?” Anthony sat down at the head of the couch. There was a white bandage on his head. “Do you want me to stay over here?” “Under no circumstances are you going to sleep alone in your place!” Adrian declared, the son protecting his father with filial love. Anthony smiled. “They’re going to need a lot more than a little hit to the head to defeat me, son.” Adrian shook his head. “That’s the point. I don’t want anyone hitting anything of yours. You need to live many more years and see your grandchildren.” Anthony patted his son’s belly. “If you keep hitting the gym, that dream will most likely come true!” Motivated, Adrian started picking up some things from the floor. “How was your conversation with James?” “We were interrupted by that stupid Katrina who doesn’t realize her husband is in love with the cousin she ha
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 277 This is Almost Paranoia
Night fell and the employees of Vasconcelos Company clocked out to go home. Some secretaries practically ran because they didn’t want to miss the next episode of ‘Love Spins the World.’Katrina encountered Claudia in the hallway. “Why are those women leaving in such a rush? Where’s their work ethic?” “Mom, everyone has been working since early to push my show forward.” Katrina glanced at her father’s office door. “Are you going there too?” “No, I’m heading home to prevent Nadir from getting your grandmother hooked on those ridiculous shows.” Claudia grumbled. “Mom, I’m creating a show too.” Katrina took offense. “But you’re not doing anything cheesy and melodramatic like that show your grandmother decided to watch.” Claudia explained, placing her hands on her daughter’s shoulders. “You’re doing something of quality, worthy of best series awards. And we expect the lead actors to win awards too!” Katrina smiled, feeling more excited. “Well, I hope my dad keeps his right head in th
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 278 Better Safe Than Sorry
Regis and Vargas had finished racking, tracking, and cleaning any data that could incriminate Lord and Lady Ferro. Outraged by Adrian’s controversial way of having fun, they also deleted everything else that had scandalized them. “Whew! Finally! If we scan and wipe all the viruses, I think this machine could be sold in a second-hand store, what do you think, butler?” Vargas joked. “Lord Ferro ordered us to throw this computer in the trash.” Regis stood up, stretching after sitting for so long. “Too bad, this computer is a good brand.” Vargas ran his hand over the monitor. “I understand, but orders are orders.” Regis didn’t want to take any risks. In American movies, Adrian could find his old computer in one of the thrift stores. Such a coincidence couldn’t repeat itself in the real world. Vargas, sharing the same thought, furrowed his brow. Wouldn’t that be too much of a coincidence?How many thrift stores are there in Braspolis? Looking out the window, Vargas was enchanted by
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 279 Car Accident Part 2
The new information hit the Vasconcelos family like a bomb. Katrina felt trapped in a repetitive cycle of events involving different family members. Who would be the next to crash their car? Her parents? Grandma Althea, who doesn’t even drive anymore? “Uncle Sandro, don’t come at us with fake news,” Katrina complained, snapping out of her stupor. “Christopher just checked the brakes on MY car! How could the brakes of HIS have been cut?” Sandro, however, frowned, dissatisfied. “I should let you all suffer instead of trying to help! At a time like this, you still cling to conspiracy theories?” James quickly went to the closet. “I’m getting dressed. We’re going to the hospital now, dear!” “Your grandmother is being notified,” Sandro added. “Is she going too?” Katrina asked, fearing the answer. “She said she’s waiting for the last act of the soap opera episode. Once it’s over, she’ll go,” Sandro replied awkwardly, leaving the suite. Katrina sat on the mattress, utterly shocked an
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 280 One More for the CEO’s Delight
Ferro House, night. After putting his gray suit back on, Vargas’s cell phone began to ring in his pocket. Regis had also returned in his butler attire. “Oh no, problems!” Vargas recognized the number. “Hello... Yes... Really?... Understood, I’m heading there immediately.” Regis looked worried. “Is there a problem I should inform Lord Ferro about?” Vargas tucked his cell phone into his pocket, chuckling. “Please, don’t disturb Lord Ferro during his marital intimacy. One of those Vasconcelos idiots, Christopher, had an accident. The family is already talking about blaming Lord and Lady Ferro for the crash, just like they did with Katrina Ross.” “Oh, what a NIGHTMARE!” Regis lost his cold and formal butler demeanor. “I need to go. They’re going to look for ‘Dr. Vargas’ again.” Vargas hurriedly left. Regis glanced at the stairs, peeking up to the second floor. Should he inform Lord Ferro? Well, he and Lady Ferro were having so much fun, as he and Vargas inadvertently overheard ne
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 281 Groundless Accusations
The next day. Mark woke up ten minutes before his alarm, feeling good and vigorous, unlike Briana, who lay devastated and would probably only be able to get up next year.He looked at his dear wife and smiled contentedly.Taking advantage of the alarm not going off, Mark turned it off so as not to wake Briana. Then, he grabbed his phone to check if anyone had sent him a message.Yes, there were messages.Mark’s joy dropped by 50% upon reading the message from ‘Dr. Vargas.’“Damn!” Mark murmured through clenched teeth, heading straight for the bathroom as he came into the world.After showering and putting on some clothes, he went down to the first floor. In the kitchen, he found Regis serving breakfast and not Julian, so he wasn’t surprised.“Good morning, Mr. Ferro.” Regis had to use the “Mr.” because of the maid who was around sweeping the floor.“Good morning, Regis. Our cook is still off on his adventure, huh?” Mark replied with a slight smile while pouring himself coffee.Regis w
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 282 Adrian Informs His Partner
At the Vasconcelos Mansion, the situation was quite tense as everyone sat silently in the dining room, unsure of what to say.Sandro had returned from Ferro House and was keeping quiet about the conversation he’d had with his son-in-law. Nadir suggested, “Guys, how about we talk about something other than what we’re all thinking?” “What are we thinking about, Nadir?” Claudia retorted sourly. “Jeez.” Nadir sipped his latte. “We’re thinking about my nephew’s well-being.” “As if you really cared about him.” Claudia made the atmosphere worse. “You only care about the absence of the pearl necklace, touching your neck as if you have eczema.” “YUCK!” Sandro shouted, slamming his fist on the table and rattling the silverware. “B*tch, shut up and eat!” Gilson remembered he had a wife. “Listen here, man, I’m not going to let you talk to my wife like that for nothing, got it?” Sandro smiled wickedly. “And what are you going to do about it?” Katrina gestured impatiently. “Hey, both of you

Chapter 413 He Really Doesn’t Know the Truth
Mark paced the confines of his office at Ferro House, his usually composed demeanor unraveling under the weight of uncertainty. Waiting for news was a rare torment for him, but when it came to Briana, his control wavered.The sharp tone of his cellphone broke the silence, and he answered immediately after checking the caller ID.“Yes,” he said curtly.“We’ve found her, Lord Ferro,” Vargas’s voice came through clearly.“Where is she?” Mark demanded.“At the airport, buying tickets under a false identity.”Mark smirked. “Typical. You know what to do.”“Understood, Lord Ferro.”Mark ended the call just as Regis entered the room.“Well, Lord Ferro?” Regis asked with curiosity.Mark shot him a sharp look. “When my dear wife returns, you’ll have to call me Mr. Ferro.”Regis grimaced, realizing his slip. He swallowed the urge to retort, already kicking himself mentally. Damn!“What are your orders now? Have Vargas and the men in gray...”“They succeeded,” Mark interrupted. “Viviana will be d
Chapter 412 She Left with the Money
Viviana entered the Red Light nightclub as dusk settled, her demeanor a mix of anxiety and wariness.After everything that had transpired, the last thing she wanted was to be recognized.The pulse of electronic music reverberated through the room as the current dancers rehearsed their routines half-heartedly, aware that their audience wouldn’t be focused on their choreography.The retro Eurodance beat betrayed Anthony’s age as he inspected glasses and bottles, swaying subtly to the rhythm emanating from the speakers.Sliding onto a barstool, Viviana scanned her surroundings, her gaze darting left and right.Anthony turned to her with a broad grin, a man satisfied with her work.“You’re almost dancing,” Viviana remarked.“Men don’t dance,” Anthony replied, brushing it off. “But this music was a hit back in the day.”“Before I was born, I guess... Anyway, it’s time for me to disappear.”Anthony mirrored her cautious glances around the room.The waitresses were preoccupied setting up tab
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
