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
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 353 She Wants to Come Back
Sandro and Briana are surprised when Mark suggests that Sandro’s father-in-law work with them at Glamour. Sandro scratches his head. “Mark, the idea sounds good, but you’re forgetting something. Vasconcelos Company is part of my life; my last name is at stake. Briana married you and now goes by ‘Ferro,’ so she has the right to carve her own path.” “But Dad, Uncle Gilson also has the family surname,” Briana counters. “Unfortunately, Grandma Althea has been somewhat blinded by him and handed all the power over to him, disregarding you.” “The problem is that Gilson, as he is, is going to ruin the company, my father’s legacy.” Sandro grimaces. “I can feel that ‘Hope Alive’ will be the first of many failures, until our company falls into obscurity in the entertainment industry.” “Maybe in the future, you can revitalize what Vasconcelos used to be,” Mark tries to mediate. “But still, I don’t see how we can reverse the situation, father-in-law. That’s why I made this proposal for you and
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 354 Truths Come to Light
In the temporary room, Christopher and Sergeant Ribeiro were locked in an intense discussion. The air was heavy with tension, but what neither of them knew was that James, their prime suspect, was just outside the door, listening in.His face betrayed his shock as each word hit him like a blow.“You can’t be serious, Sergeant Ribeiro,” Christopher said, disbelief thick in his voice.Ribeiro’s confidence didn’t waver. “Why not? I know exactly what I’m talking about.”Christopher, trying to maintain composure, said, “I never suggested that James Ross, my brother-in-law, was a suspect.”“That’s exactly the problem!” Ribeiro’s voice grew sharper. “You kept that from me, Mr. Vasconcelos! While you and your sister were pushing the police to investigate Mark Ferro, you hid a much more plausible suspect!”“But why would James cut the brakes on my car?” Christopher countered.Ribeiro’s patience was running out. “Mr. Vasconcelos, it’s best you come clean now so justice can be served!”“Justice?

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
