Here Comes the Lord Chapter 345 Unexpected Encouragement
Gilson returned to the mansion, completely distraught. Claudia was coming down the stairs, heading to their son’s temporary room. Seeing her husband with a ghostly expression, she stepped back. “Dear, what happened?” “Is Mom here?” Gilson asked in a weak tone. “Huh, your mother?” Claudia frowned and approached him, not hearing properly. “She’s watch-binging some independent series made by Glamour. Why?” “Independent series?” Gilson was puzzled. “Yes, those series that are made without great ambition to be a mega-hit, with a limited budget, usually posted directly on the Internet or streaming TV,” Claudia said in a tone that also showed her disagreement. “Why is she wasting time watching those things when she could be watching one of OUR series?” Gilson asked indignantly. “She said she’s trying out products from other companies to get better acquainted.” Claudia shrugged. “Anyway, let your mom enjoy the last years of her life however she wants. I was going to talk to Chris.” “
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 346 Did Mark Not Know?
Mark decided to continue strolling calmly through the streets after realizing that the police wouldn’t care about Katrina’s ridiculous accusations and others.With that, he headed to the LCN Group headquarters to discuss the matter directly with Susana Linz.In the vice president’s office, she once again allowed Mark to sit in her chair while she narrated.“Mission accomplished, Lord Ferro. The contract is being rescinded by the legal department as we speak.”“Great!” Mark maintained a serious expression. “We hope they learn a lesson from this.”“Not to go around slandering people and bothering the police with false allegations and testimonies.” Susana shook her head. “I still can’t believe they insist on this ridiculous story just because they don’t like you.”“Sometimes, Susana, a person is overtaken by irrational hate. Nothing else matters, not even a sense of the ridiculous.” Mark took a deep breath.“Mr. Vasconcelos – Mr. Gilson Vasconcelos – didn’t take it well and left here fum
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 347 They Don’t Focus on the Problem
Mark, pretending not to know what had happened with the Vasconcelos crew, elicited laughter from Luana and Briana with the innocent expression he managed to perform. “HA, HA, HA!” Luana wiped tears of laughter from her eyes. “Sorry, Mark, but that was really good!” “Why?” Mark smiled, showing that he wasn’t offended. “Weren’t you notified by Vice President Linz?” Briana caught her breath, feeling her stomach hurt from laughing so hard. “I think she wanted to talk directly to you so you wouldn’t get jealous,” Mark joked. “You fool. I saw Vice President Linz, and I know she’s an attractive woman, but I also saw a picture frame on her desk showing her family.” Briana approached her husband. “So, how do you feel?” “Relieved, vindicated... among other things,” Mark replied honestly. “They couldn’t keep partnering with people who only cause problems,” Luana reasoned. “It was the last straw for them when Katrina showed up in the tabloids.” “Someone must have told them about the unfai
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 348 How Do They Plan to Win?
The Vasconcelos family was surprised by Claudia’s very positive statement. Katrina became interested. “Mom, what do you mean by that? Isn’t Chris recovering at the mansion? How could he think about the show’s situation?” Gilson explained, “We brought the matter to him. Even with bandages and gauze all over his body, my son motivated us to continue producing ‘Hope Alive’ and handle the publicity our way. Unfortunately, we can no longer count on LCN’s funding, but we can make this show work!” James also got swept up in the enthusiasm. “That’s right! If our show is a success, we won’t have to give a cut of the profits to LCN! They will regret discarding us!” “And I will come back, being forgiven by those who canceled me!” Katrina cheered, hopeful. Suddenly, the atmosphere in Gilson’s office changed drastically.Where there was sorrow, now there was joy and hope. Just like the title of the show they want to produce to dethrone Briana’s two shows. Sandro and Nadir, however, exchanged
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 349 It Would Be Better to Stay at Glamour
Celia walked through the hallways of Vasconcelos as if she were looking for someone.When she ran into Adrian coming from the recording studios, she approached him eagerly, gesturing.“Adrian, we need to talk about us!”Adrian reacted with displeasure. “What are you talking about, girl? There’s no chance we’re getting back together!”“And who said I wanted to talk about that?” Celia spoke more quietly. “I’m talking about a mistake we made.”“Why are we whispering?” Adrian mimicked her tone.“Because I don’t want to cause panic among the staff.”“Let’s go somewhere quiet.” Adrian led Celia.They entered James’ office, taking advantage of the fact that no one was around.As Adrian closed the door, he continued, “This better be good, Celia.”“We made a mistake by working here. It would be better if we had stayed at Glamour.”Adrian frowned. “What are you talking about?”“I just came from a meeting with the Vasconcelos family.” Celia shook her head, “Boy, they’re completely lost, not know
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 350 Hereditary Hatred
Gilson feels like he’s in a psychiatrist’s chair after Sandro asks a probing question. “What are you talking about, you idiot?” “Am I the idiot? You’re projecting your animosity towards me onto your daughter. I think I’m starting to understand why Katrina hates my daughter so much.” Sandro points his finger. “She hates Briana because YOU transfer the hatred you feel for me onto your daughter!” “That’s nonsense!” Gilson refuses to accept it. “I’m not saying you did this on purpose,” Sandro continued, “but it’s what Katrina has absorbed all these years. She grew up seeing you hate me and blame me for everything bad that happened in your life. Growing up in an environment filled with hatred and a sense of injustice, what did you expect would happen?” Gilson slowly stands up. “I didn’t call you here to act like a psychiatrist, you fool. I just want to announce a decision I’ve made.” “What decision?” “After our meeting, it’s clear to me who is the one unwilling to contribute to the
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 351 Mark Makes an Offer
Mark and Briana returned from lunch in his discreet car.“I think, now that the police have officially removed me from their list of suspects, I can start using my Lamborghini Urus again, sweetheart,” Mark joked. “That way, you won’t feel stuck with me, playing chauffeur.”“Don’t worry, darling.” Briana kissed his cheek. “I like helping you with things.”“Yeah, but the husband here can’t keep relying on his wife — it’s supposed to be the other way around,” Mark said, getting out of the car as he spoke. “Isn’t that what they always accuse me of?”Briana pulled the handbrake, turned off the ignition, and got out of the car, rolling her eyes at him.“Mark, I believe, in the name of Jesus, that one day you’ll learn not to care about the false accusations of others.”“Keep believing, dear.” Mark struck a pose, pretending he needed to learn not to care.If only Briana knew...Of course, Mark couldn’t care less about his opponents’ complaints!As they approached the entrance, the receptionis
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 352 The Suspect of Christopher
James visited the Vasconcelos Mansion.Christopher was peacefully asleep in his temporary room. The window was open, and the maids passing by the pool area could see the young Mr. Vasconcelos sleeping on his back, shirtless...However, the enjoyment was interrupted by James’ entrance. The maids quickly retreated from the window, pretending to clean and sweep.James didn’t care about the peaceful sleep and shook Christopher violently.“Wake up, sleepyhead!”“OUCH!” Christopher jolted awake, sitting up abruptly and leaning against the headboard of the bed. “What’s this about?”“Time to get up. Aren’t you supposed to be helping with your sister’s show? Get your boxers, shirt, pants, and suit on and get back to work with us!”Christopher narrowed his eyes. “I don’t get your sarcastic tone.”“What the hell gives you the audacity to ‘motivate’ my in-laws in a completely hopeless situation?” James asked sourly. “We lost the main source of funding for Hope Alive, and you’re telling your paren

Chapter 416 The Son Left the Nest
Mark allowed himself a faint smile, sensing that Adrian might be right. Anthony Curtis seemed exactly the type to throw his own son under the bus if it suited his purposes.Pausing for a moment, Mark mulled over their next steps. Adrian remained on the cot, his posture tense and his face clouded with frustration.“For now,” Mark said finally, “you’re going to have to play the role of the desperate son who needs Daddy to come to his rescue. Afterward, you can deal with him however you see fit.”Adrian leaned forward, his voice rising with conviction. “I’ll throw him out of the apartment, that’s for sure! I want nothing to do with someone who facilitates crimes. Why did he do it?”He shook his head as though trying to dislodge the thought. “It’s like I don’t even know who he really is.”For a fleeting moment, Mark felt a pang of genuine pity for Adrian. He recognized the anguish of a man grappling with the betrayal of someone he should have been able to trust.“Adrian,” Mark said, his t
Chapter 415 A.C.
Briana narrowed her eyes, her mind racing to decipher those initials A.C.“It’s simple,” Lawrence said. “I heard about your kidnapping. The internet exploded. Even your grandmother gave a heartfelt interview on TV.”Briana smirked at the thought of Katrina tearing her hair out in fury over Althea’s public sympathy.“When I got this anonymous message,” Lawrence continued, “I had to check it out.”“You didn’t have to,” Briana replied sharply. “Why did this person send the message to you and not my husband?”Lawrence’s smile turned sly. “What do you think, Brie? You and I were always better suited for each other than you and Mark. Besides, who is he? What could he possibly do? What resources does he have to save you? He hasn’t done anything.”Briana’s smile faded, her expression hardening. Though Mark didn’t have Lawrence’s wealth or connections, she refused to believe he hadn’t tried everything within his power.Her voice trembled slightly as she said, “It’s not an anonymous message. A.
Chapter 414 Hero of the Day
The dim, eerie warehouse was filled with the oppressive silence of emptiness. Briana sat alone, her eyes swollen and burning from hours of crying.Freed from her gag, she had tried screaming, but as the hooded man had warned her, it was useless.“HELP! For Christ’s sake, you can’t leave me here alone!” Briana’s voice echoed hauntingly through the cavernous space, amplifying the void around her.She panted, scanning the shadows for any sign of life.“What happened... where is everyone... Mark, where are you?”Suddenly, the faint sound of elegant footsteps broke the silence.Briana froze, holding her breath as she tried to locate the source.Something about the measured rhythm of the steps sent a shiver through her.“Such refined steps,” she thought. “Those shoes must cost a fortune... maybe the ‘boss’ of these kidnappers is finally showing up. I’ll finally know who hired that snake, Viviana...”Drawing a deep breath, Briana mustered a scornful smile. As Mark Ferro’s wife, she refused t
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
