A heavy shadow seemed to cling to Briana as she sat at the lunch table."Hello, Mother," Briana began, her voice tight. "We need to have a serious conversation about Dad."Nadir flashed a smile that bordered on the immoral. "Okay..." she purred.From Nadir’s point of view, her plate was piled high with an odd assortment: carrots, eggplant, cucumber, quail eggs, and other foods that, to a certain mind, resembled a very specific male appendage."Are you satisfied with my father?" Briana pressed, cutting through the silence.Nadir startled as if emerging from a daydream. "Huh? What kind of question is that, daughter? Satisfied in what sense?"Briana's expression remained firm, unwavering. "Are you satisfied with my father in the INTIMACY department?"Nadir’s face flushed crimson. "Daughter, why are you asking me this?""I received a complaint," Briana stated simply. "And, come to think of it, your stress the last time you were here makes perfect sense now.""Daughter, just this morning,

Celia strode with rapid, though clearly painful, steps. Her gaze was severe and focused, files clutched in her hands, giving her the appearance of a robot moving through the Vasconcelos Company corridor.Employees who passed her quickly made way, startled by her intensity.As she reached the door to Gilson’s office, she didn’t hesitate.She threw the door open with such force that one of the glass panes finally came loose and CRASHED to the marble floor, shattering into a thousand pieces.Gilson bounced in his leather presidential chair, his eyes wide, hand immediately flying to his heart.Christopher, who had been standing without his jacket, sheets of paper in his hand, turned slowly toward the source of the commotion.Celia was momentarily distracted by Christopher’s muscular back and rounded butt, clearly outlined by his business attire.She shook her head, forcing her focus onto his father, who was equally handsome but older.“CELIA!” Gilson shrieked, hysterical. “What the hell a

“Luana,” Briana said, recovering from the initial shock, “you’re suggesting my mother is having an affair with my servant!”“Not exactly,” Luana clarified. “I’m saying your mother is tempting Julian like Potiphar’s wife. Julian is a sweetheart; he would never say anything to you. But I started paying attention. At lunchtime, when you began to pray, Julian was nearby. When we said ‘Amen’ and opened our eyes, Julian had retreated back to the kitchen. And that’s when your mother...”“Swore in dissatisfaction,” Briana finished, the realization hitting her. “Right after praying to God...”Briana was momentarily paralyzed, her jaw slack. Then, she picked up her fork and resumed eating the crepe.Luana leaned back in her chair, saying nothing more. She had done enough.******In the Ferro House kitchen, Julian walked in, holding a tray of chicken salad sandwiches meant for Briana and Luana.The reason he had returned with the tray was clear in his heavy breathing, his wide, panicked eyes, an

Althea nodded, refusing to retract her crude statement. Sandro, however, couldn't accept his “princess” doing those same things!“Come on, Sandro!” Althea scoffed. “How did Briana get pregnant? By the Holy Spirit?”She turned to Nadir with utter contempt. “As for you, Madam, you will be a grandmother soon. Maintain some decorum, and let my son go to work!”Althea turned and stalked out, indignation radiating from her.Nadir snatched a deodorant bottle from the nightstand and hurled it at the door as it closed.In the Vasconcelos Mansion corridor, Althea merely heard the sound of the object hitting the doorframe. She allowed herself a small, dismissive smile.Claudia appeared, dressed for work in a sharp terracotta pantsuit.“Good morning, Althea,” Claudia chirped. “No more bombs exploded, so let’s go to work.”“At least someone is thinking with their upper head,” Althea muttered.Claudia paused, glancing at Sandro’s suite door, a malicious smile creeping onto her face. “What happened

In Mark’s office at Glamour, Mark gestured for Elara to take a seat. She complied, her eyes subtly tracing the muscular back and firm physique of Manager Ferro as he walked around the expansive desk to sit opposite her.‘How I envy Mrs. Ferro,’ Elara thought to herself.“Miss D'Arveil,” Mark began formally, “I want to sincerely thank you for taking an interest in the affairs of Braspolis.”“You’re welcome, Manager Ferro.”“I wanted to know if you had given proper thought to the proposal we made about you becoming a candidate for the status of Mrs. Vasconcelos.”Elara smiled suggestively. “Manager Ferro, may I be frank with you?”“Always.”“I’ve been doing some research. As you know, I’m not exactly from around here. I spent a good part of my life in Europe.”“And what did your research reveal?” Mark asked, kind of feeling what she will answer, and not liking it.“Christopher Vasconcelos, as I’ve already established, is a first-rate hunk,” she said, her voice switching to a seductive w

Moments later, on the main streets of Braspolis, traffic was flowing smoothly and lightly, a surreal sight considering the packed buses and the booming business for ride-share drivers.Inside his car, Mark was driving, still noting the ease of the morning commute.“Will people ever settle down?” he muttered to himself, shaking his head at the strange urban calm.Mark pulled his Lamborghini Urus to a stop at the gatehouse of the Glamour building garage. The boom barrier was slow to lift.Beep! Mark honked, staring at the gatehouse’s tinted window, impatient with the delay.After what felt like an eternity, he was finally admitted. He drove the Lamborghini toward his usual spot, only to suddenly SLAM on the brakes.A crowd of Glamour employees had gathered, all focused on a single person.From his vantage point inside the car, Mark’s frown deepened as he registered three key things:His customary parking spot was occupied by another car.The person commanding everyone’s attention was El
