Here Comes the Lord Chapter 328 Mark Leaves the Den
At Ferro House, Mark decided to do something. Regis entered his office, finding his boss standing. “Do you need anything, Lord Ferro?” “Yes, I need you to be careful with the ‘Lord’ because we’re going to mingle with the crowd.” Regis raised his eyebrows. “Are you planning to leave the house?” “Exactly. We’re going to Glamour. I don’t think anyone will report me for Christopher’s accident,” Mark reasoned. He thought long and hard before making his decision.The only people with a morbid interest in accusing him of attempted murder work at Vasconcelos Company, not at Glamour. “Okay, I understand. I’ll get the car to take you.” “That’s right. I don’t want to risk going alone.” “No one is going to throw stones at the windows or windshields, Lord Ferro.” Regis chuckled. “We better get going.” “Yes, let’s hurry.” Mark, already dressed accordingly, headed to the garage. Inside the car, sitting in the back seat, Mark took out his phone. At Glamour, Briana smiled upon seeing her h
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 329 Let’s Not Get Discouraged
Mark and Regis entered Glamour. As they expected, the employees reacted normally to Mark’s presence. No one accused him of causing Christopher’s car accident. Some didn’t even have a friendship with the victim to act so emotionally. They confidently entered his office where Karl was. “We’ve arrived, Regis, and unscathed!” Mark joked. “You were right, Mr. Ferro,” Regis commented. “No one here cares about the Vasconcelos family affairs.” “No, this nonsense that I attempted against someone else’s life only circulates among the Vasconcelos. Here, we have people with sound minds.” The door opened, and Briana entered, looking very worried. “MARK! What the hell are you doing here? And with Regis?” “Is that any way to greet your husband?” Mark raised an eyebrow. “Don’t be ridiculous!” Briana hugged him fervently. “I don’t want anything bad to happen to you!” “It won’t, dear. Trust me.” Mark pulled away from the hug. “I realized that no one at Glamour would accuse me of threatening y
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 330 Determination
Karl entered his office with Mark to talk after being found by Regis. “I was just having a little coffee.” Mark glared at Regis. “Look for Miss Luana Barros. If she’s free in the studios, send her here too.” “Yes, Mr. Ferro.” Regis left. Mark waited for the door to close. “Mark, are you sure it was a good idea to leave home?” Karl asked, concerned. Mark nodded stiffly. “Everyone who buys into Katrina’s flawed theory works at Vasconcelos, not here.” Karl rubbed his forehead, reconsidering. “Yeah, that makes sense.” Mark smiled faintly. “Karl, I’ve been thinking. I had a conversation with Sergeant Ribeiro earlier, and he pointed something out that he noticed while talking to James Ross.” “What did that idiot let slip to the sergeant?” “The vain feeling he has for Briana.” Karl’s eyes widened. James is that transparent? “And now, what does he intend to do?” “He plans to investigate James Ross more thoroughly. Think about it, Karl: if the sergeant noticed that James has his e
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 331 Putting Order in Chaos
At the General Hospital of Braspolis, Christopher is disturbed to learn that Katrina has worsened their plan to defeat Mark and Briana. “My sister can’t keep calm and collected,” Christopher complains, leaning back against the pillows. “Briana is always focused and controlled, never prone to outbursts, which is why she always wins.” “Agreed,” James nodded, always ready to defend Briana in everything. “Well, what do we do now?” Adrian asked. “Christopher, we thought you could shed some light on this.” “Me?” Christopher raised his eyebrows. “Katrina came up with a theory. Maybe you discovered something about Mark, which is why he tried to kill you,” James leaned forward. Christopher shook his head. “No... I don’t know anything.” James and Adrian exchanged glances, clearly dissatisfied. “Really? That’s a shame,” James scratched the back of his neck. “Without that, we can’t support our theory to the police.” “And thanks to what Katrina did, Sergeant Ribeiro won’t listen to us any
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 332 Christopher Has No Enemies
At the General Hospital, Christopher commented on the possibility of the security cameras. “Well, since the police don’t want to talk about Katrina’s accident,” James concluded, “let’s talk about your case, Chris. Yes, the police must have checked something.” “That means we have to keep looking.” Adrian grimaced. “Damn!” “What’s wrong?” “Do you think the police will see us after Katrina’s scandal?” Christopher furrowed his brow. “If you guys don’t act hysterical and show some respect for authority, Sergeant Ribeiro will definitely listen to you.” “Maybe it’s better if someone from the family, like you, James,” Adrian suggested. “I can ask Mr. or Mrs. Vasconcelos to go in my place.” James checked the time on his wristwatch. “It’s getting late, and I need to get back to work.” A notification from James’s cellphone made him check the device. “What is it?” Christopher asked. “Katrina just told me she took our bags to the Rocha Hotel,” James read. “She’s at the recording studios,
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 333 Ribeiro Has No Patience
Ribeiro visits the patient Christopher to discuss the case. But he is surprised to find James and Adrian standing at the entrance of the room when it’s not visiting hours yet.“Dr. Vargas made an exception for us because I’ve been really busy with my wife’s TV show,” James offered unsolicited explanations.“Okay, Mr. Ross.” Ribeiro was amused. “I now want to speak with Mr. Vasconcelos about the case, if you don’t mind.”“No, no... feel free.”James and Adrian hurriedly left.Christopher pursed his lips. Did those two have to leave as if they were guilty of something?Ribeiro approached the hospital bed. “Good morning, Mr. Vasconcelos.”“Good morning, Sergeant. I’m not going to ask ‘how can I help you’ because it’s you who needs to help me.”Ribeiro became serious. “I’m getting the impression that having a sharp tongue runs in the family, huh?”Christopher tensed up. “What does that mean?”“I’m referring to the disrespect your sister put me through at the station yesterday. Did you rea
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 334 Taking Advantage of His Crush
Sergeant Ribeiro doesn’t hold back with the patient Christopher during the interrogation. Christopher kept looking at the door. Where is Dr. Vargas to stop the officer’s visit? “Stop giving me that look, Mr. Vasconcelos!” Ribeiro ordered. “It’s not my intention to offend you, Sergeant.” Christopher defended himself. “I’m just wondering if I should be interrogated like this.” “Sorry, but I’m fed up with this nonsense about Mr. Ferro being involved in this,” Ribeiro complained. “Everything that was accused has been investigated, checked, and found to be false. Tell me, Mr. Vasconcelos: what do you think could have motivated Mark Ferro to damage your car?” “I constantly accused him of having cut the brakes on my sister’s car when she had her accident.” “But my team had already determined that there was nothing wrong with her car. Your sister was criminally drunk when she crashed.” Christopher took a breath to retort, but Ribeiro interrupted him. “I should remind you, Mr. Vasconce
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 335 A Distraction for Katrina
Christopher tried to ignore that he was being reprimanded by the sergeant while lying in his hospital bed. “Sergeant, since you want to know the truth so much, what did the police find on the security cameras at the Vasconcelos Company parking lot? I drove my car calmly to the company. The sabotage must have happened there.” “Yes, for sure.” Ribeiro confirmed. “But the parking lot wasn’t 100% lit, and the man was wearing something over his face, looking like a black mask.” Christopher rolled his eyes in frustration. “Oh, come on! Are we ever going to find out who did this?” “At least you can’t say it was Mark Ferro,” Ribeiro retorted. “You can’t prove that it WASN’T Mark Ferro who carried out the attack on me!” Christopher shouted. “Mr. Vasconcelos, can’t you think of anyone else, any enemy of yours who would dare to do such a thing?” “I don’t make enemies.” Christopher frowned. “But Mark Ferro isn’t your enemy either,” Ribeiro countered. “I’m aware you barely exchanged a hand

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
