Here Comes the Lord Chapter 296 Tell Me Your Schedule
The next day. Briana had her well-deserved rest and could now go down to have her meals. In the dining room, Regis was serving breakfast options instead of Julian. “Regis, where’s Julian?” Regis blushed to the roots of his hair. “Madam, Julian went out to meet a girl and hasn’t returned yet. Mr. Ferro gave him the freedom to come back when he can.” Briana let out a giggle. “Far be it from me to interrupt a romantic idyll. Anyway, those pancakes look delicious.” “One of the staff knows how to cook as well,” Regis replied. “I hope they are to your liking, madam.” “Where’s your boss?” “He’s exercising in the pool.” Briana got up and headed to the pool area. There, she saw her husband stroking vigorously and confidently, making any Olympic swimmer question their swimming prowess. Mark was even wearing swimming goggles, looking just like them. When Mark reached the edge of the pool, he sensed someone’s presence and removed his goggles.Seeing his beloved wife standing there, he s
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 297 Karl’s Testimony
At the Braspolis police station, Karl tries to help Mark's situation by providing a strong testimony. “How did you meet Mark Ferro, Mr. Carvalho?” Karl answered promptly, “I met him at a party held at the Braz Social Club. A little gathering to reconnect with our old college classmates.” Ribeiro was taken aback. “Really? That party didn’t have something to do with the arrest of two guests after quite a commotion occurred, with gang members trying to assault the female guests, did it?” Karl clicked his fingers. “THAT! It was at that party! Fernanda Gabas, a perpetual jealous of Briana, orchestrated that scandal, trying to ruin everything and then blaming it on her. She was arrested along with her boyfriend, who claimed to have connections to the underworld.” Ribeiro pursed his lips. “I was involved in that arrest. Small world.” “Not the world, Braspolis,” Karl quipped. “Well, I met Briana’s husband at that party. I remember several people accusing Mark of having called the gang
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 298 Get Me Your Best Lawyer
Mark asked Joana for a lawyer, leaving her stunned. Mark, with all his power, could turn the police station and the entire corporation upside down if he wanted to. But since he decided to maintain his disguise, he needed to act like an ordinary citizen. However, he would not settle for a mediocre option. He would have the best lawyers available. Joana cleared her throat. “Ahem... Manager Ferro, I may not be impartial, but my cousin Theodore Damascene is an excellent lawyer, the son of my late uncle.” “Isn’t he the current owner of the whole firm?” Mark asked with a smile. Joana, however, misunderstood his smile. “I mean, of course, we can offer you a cheaper lawyer.” Mark gestured. “That won’t be necessary, Joana. Well, do you know why I'm asking you this?” Joana nodded. “Yesterday, a sergeant with a comedian vibe showed up at Glamour looking for you. I read a rather uninformative article in LCN accusing you of having cut the brakes on the car belonging to Manager Vasconcelos’
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 299 Katrina Tries to Accuse Briana
“KATRINA!” Briana jumped up as if she felt thumbtacks on her chair. Katrina smiled devilishly as she entered Briana and Luana’s office. She slammed the door shut, in a sinister and frightening manner. Luana shoved her hand into her blazer pocket, prepared to push her phone if necessary. She asked, “What do you think you’re doing here? Do you and your husband really think you can come into this company and cause chaos—” “IS THIS A COMPANY?” Katrina rudely interrupted Luana. “It doesn’t seem like one to me. Here looks like a vile den of debauchery, according to Celia Soares.” Briana narrowed her eyes. “What do you have to do with that shameless hussy?” Katrina feigned surprise. “Oops! Did I accidentally reveal a secret about your husband?” “Mark has nothing to do with Celia anymore, thank goodness!” Briana shouted. Katrina was amused. “Celia is now an assistant at Vasconcelos Company, along with Adrian Curtis. It seems fate brought them back together. And they are both very emp
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 300 A Well-Chosen Butler
Regis stepped outside first to find out who was honking so obnoxiously. Fortunately, they didn’t live in a crowded neighborhood, or the neighbors would know that someone was visiting Mark in a flashy manner. As he approached the car, Regis felt an electric current run through his body. “Are you... James Ross?” “How does the butler know me if this is the first time I’ve set foot here?” James got out of the car with a mocking expression. “I recognized you from the newspapers and articles showing you leaving the Red Light nightclub,” Regis replied defiantly. James’s arrogant smile faded. “Well, the butler knows how to talk tough! I’m going to recommend to Mark that he fires you, you know-it-all!” “You didn’t come here to talk to my boss about domestic matters,” Regis interjected, blocking the path with gravel. “No, I came to talk to him about my brother-in-law’s attempted murder.” “Seems like you care a lot about your brother-in-law’s life, huh?” Regis raised one eyebrow. James
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 301 James Saw the Video
James couldn’t believe it.First, he took a huge kick to the stomach from Mark, leaving him sore for a day. Now, his butler had him pinned against the hood of the car, wrenching his left arm behind his back as if he wanted to break it!Can’t anyone have a civil conversation around here?“Let me go, you crazy butler! If you don’t, I’ll send the police after you instead of your boss!”“You have no grounds to imprison my boss!” Regis grumbled through clenched teeth. “I suggest you get out of here and never come back! Only Sandro Vasconcelos is allowed to step foot here!”“This is absurd!” James roared, feeling the pain intensify…Regis released his arm, just short of breaking it. James, in a panic, grasped his arm wide-eyed and gasping.This feels like a nightmare!“Get in that car and go! My boss doesn’t have time to talk to insignificant people like you! Let alone tamper with the brakes of someone not worth five cents!”“The butler really is a tough guy with sharp words, huh?” James sh
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 302 A Suspicion
James was thrilled to discover that Adrian had sent a copy of the video to his email!“Oh… how excellent! I have a copy of the video! Well, it’s better to keep this to myself. Someone must have hacked Adrian’s email; if I send it back to him, not only will they delete it again, but they’ll know I have it.”James relaxed, grinning broadly, leaning back in his chair.Katrina burst in like the hurricane that bore her name, fuming with rage.“Hey, don’t knock the books over like your father, alright?” James rushed, anticipating more chaos.Katrina took a deep breath and raised her hands up high. “With the strength of the Lord, I will fear no evil.”“Who’s trying to do you harm, dear?” James jumped up abruptly and went to her.“No one specific. But evil exists in the form of Briana Ferro.”James took both her hands. “Where have you been?”“I went to Glamour. I needed to confront the mastermind behind the murder,” Katrina answered with a trembling voice.James hugged his wife. “Don’t say th
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 303 I’ll Always Protect My Little Princess
Mark felt it wasn’t the time to relax and celebrate victory regarding the parking lot video.He and Vargas sat in red upholstered chairs to talk and plan. “Lord Ferro, tell me more about what you think.”“Here’s the thing, Vargas: just as Christopher has been insisting on accusing me of tampering with his family’s car brakes, James has started accusing me of being a criminal with my wife... in our intimate moments.”Vargas widened his eyes, horrified. “WOW! How can this guy have such a twisted mind?”“That’s why I started to suspect. Where did this crazy idea come from?” Mark frowned. “Then I remembered the video Adrian tried to show at that party. Anyone who watches that video without knowing what Anthony Curtis did to Briana is going to think I took advantage of her that day.”“So, James Ross saw the video too?” Vargas asked, perplexed.“It must have been that. It would explain why Adrian quit Glamour and found another job so quickly, precisely at Vasconcelos Company.”“And now your

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
