Here Comes the Lord Chapter 375 A Clash Between Siblings
Back to Christopher’s temporary room in the grand Vasconcelos mansion, the fierce confrontation went on.Katrina stood a few steps away from her brother, her expression one of utter disdain, as though he were the filthiest creature she had ever encountered.“Who are you,” she demanded, her voice sharp with horror, “and what have you done with my brother?”Christopher attempted to lighten the mood with a nervous chuckle. “Heh, heh… This is no time for jokes.”Her face hardened. “I’m not joking. This is the cold, hard truth. You lied to all of us.”“Now, wait a minute—” he tried, but she cut him off.“You made us believe that Mark and Briana truly wanted to kill us. I NEEDED to believe that,” she continued, bitterness dripping from every word. “Maybe it would ease the guilt I felt for driving drunk. If I could prove I was a victim, I might have been able to live with myself.”Christopher had no retort. He knew she was right.“But now,” she pressed on, her voice rising, “I’ve found out t
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 376 The Coffee Girl
In the hallways of Glamour, a young Latina woman in her mid-twenties moved gracefully, pushing a coffee cart.She had striking looks and a composed demeanor, immediately recognizable as the coffee girl Briana and Mark had mentioned earlier.It seemed their message had reached her, as she now steered her cart directly toward Mark’s office.She nodded politely at employees passing by, her uniform skirt accentuating her movements. A few men couldn’t help but grin suggestively as they watched her, but she ignored them, focused on her task.Her faint smile, however, disappeared as she approached the door to Mark’s office.Inside the office, Mark was deep in conversation on the phone. Viviana entered quietly, her presence unnoticed at first.“I don’t know how this happened,” Mark said, pacing as he spoke. “But I expect answers as soon as possible. Briana Ferro is relying on your support.”Turning, he finally noticed Viviana and motioned for her to wait a moment.Placing his hand over the ph
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 377 Time to Face His Father-In-Law
The door opened to reveal Mary Ellen, who froze for a second, immediately sensing the romantic atmosphere.“Oh! Am I interrupting something?” she asked with a sheepish smile.“Not at all,” Mark assured, stepping back to let Briana reclaim her professional posture.Briana straightened, her tone now businesslike. “Mary Ellen, after weighing the pros and cons, we’ve decided in favor of Celia. She can return to her role as an assistant. Viviana has been exemplary in her position.”“Oh, Briana! Thank you so much!” Mary Ellen exclaimed, practically bubbling over with relief. “Don’t worry, I’m sure she’s learned her lesson.”“You’ll make sure of that for us,” Briana said, her voice carrying a note of finality.Mary Ellen giggled nervously, sensing the underlying command. “Of course! I’ll let her know right away. Bye now!”She hurried out of the office, eager to solidify the decision before the couple could reconsider.Mark exhaled audibly, leaning back slightly. “One less problem. Let’s hope
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 378 Briana Isn’t Feeling Well
At Glamour’s office, Mark’s concerned gaze fixed on the doorway as Briana stumbled in, her face pale and strained. Without hesitation, he stood, rushing to her side.“Darling, what happened?” he asked with his voice full of worry.Briana leaned against the doorframe, clearly unwell. “Oh, Mark... I think I’m feeling sick.”Mark wrapped an arm around her, supporting her gently. “You need to go home. No, wait — stay here. I’ll call Regis to drive your car back for you.”Through her daze, Briana managed a faint smile. “And who will drive... his car?”Mark chuckled, his attempt at lightening the mood. “He can bring Julian along for that.”Briana released his embrace, moving toward Karl’s empty chair to sit down.“Alright, I’ll wait here,” she murmured.Mark studied her with concern. “What exactly are you feeling?”She paused, frowning as if searching for the right words. “I feel nauseous... like I’m on a boat.”“You get seasick? Good to know — I’ll steer clear of booking us any cruises,” M
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 379 James Is Free in the Full Sense
James bursts into his office and closes the door behind him, his mood shifting dramatically as he begins to celebrate.With exaggerated movements, he pretends to dance a sultry lambada or merengue — whatever spicy rhythm is playing in his head. His hips sway, and his hands move in time to the imagined beat as he hums, “pa-pa-ra-pam-pam,” mimicking a lively tune.The door suddenly opens, and Adrian steps in, catching James mid-groove.Startled, James freezes, his hands mid-motion — one loosening his tie and the other gripping his suit jacket.“Buddy, what kind of dance is that?” Adrian teases. “It’s me, not Celia.”James grimaces, his celebration cut short.“Ha, ha, ha! Gotcha!” Adrian chuckles, enjoying his friend’s discomfort.James, his tone far from amused, snaps, “I wasn’t expecting you here. What do you want, Adrian?”Ignoring the chilly reception, Adrian steps further into the office as James moves to his desk and starts gathering his belongings. The jovial mood fades as Adrian
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 380 An Heir?
Mark stood in his office, deep in conversation with Gene. When Gene heard about Briana, his eyebrows shot up in surprise.Briana had already been taken home.“Really? She was feeling unwell? Poor thing,” Gene said, genuinely concerned.Mark shook his head. “What’s the funniest part is, I just can’t understand how she suddenly felt nauseous. If the symptoms persist, I’ll take her to the hospital.”Gene softened his expression, trying to calm his boss. “Relax, Lord Ferro! It’s probably nothing serious.”“Really?” Mark asked, raising an eyebrow.Gene swallowed, pondering how to broach the next subject without being too blunt.“Uh... how’s your love life going, you two?” Gene asked, nervously scratching the back of his neck.Mark froze for a few seconds, and then broke into a goofy grin.“Heh, heh, heh... What’s this, Gene? Already thinking about having cake at some baby shower?” Mark teased.Gene shrugged. “That’s what crossed my mind. Guess that answers my question.”Mark laughed hearti
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 381 Katrina Doesn’t Answer
At Vasconcelos Company, Gilson’s office door creaked open, handled carefully by Gilson, who clearly had no intention of risking the glass shattering again.His stern demeanor was a sharp contrast to the grim expressions of Claudia and Katrina as they entered.Katrina’s left hand was wrapped in a bandage — a reminder of the injury she’d sustained when she smashed her bedroom mirror.“You checked that hand properly?” Gilson’s tone was severe, his eyes narrowing on Katrina.Katrina glanced at Claudia, seeking solidarity before responding. “The butler took care of it for me. It doesn’t hurt or bleed anymore.”Gilson folded his arms, his tone dripping with sarcasm. “No, what’s bleeding is my heart!”Claudia’s patience snapped. “Oh, stop it, man. Melodrama is our prerogative, not yours.”“I’ll do whatever I damn well please!” Gilson barked back.The sharpness in his voice caused Claudia and Katrina to clasp hands instinctively, unsettled by his mood.“Here’s the deal,” Gilson continued, his
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 382 A Conscientious Employee
Glamour, night.The office was quiet as Mark wrapped up another long day.Standing behind his desk, he began gathering his things when the door opened unexpectedly. Viviana stepped in, her expression shy and almost fearful.“Viviana? What’s wrong?” Mark asked, his brow furrowed.“Manager Ferro,” she began softly but firmly, “I need to speak with you.”“I’m just about to leave,” Mark replied, glancing at the clock. “I need to check on my wife; she’s unwell.”“That’s exactly the problem,” Viviana said, her voice steady yet apologetic. “I wanted to apologize for the inconvenience before the gossip starts.”Mark stopped, his curiosity piqued. “I’m not following.”“I served coffee to Manager Vasconcelos, and she got sick,” Viviana confessed, bracing herself for his reaction.Mark couldn’t suppress a chuckle, finding the situation oddly amusing. “Viviana, no one’s accusing you of poisoning the coffee. Why would you even think that?”“You know how people love throwing baseless accusations ju

Chapter 511 Mary Ellen Woke Up
Under the blazing midday sun, the blue facade of the Hospital Geral Braspolis stood resolute, the image briefly stabilizing on its exterior before drawing us inside to the bustling corridor.Mark strode purposefully down the hallway, flanked by ‘Dr.’ Vargas and a few men clad in gray. No one questioned why he needed an escort or who those men were — it was simply accepted as part of the scene.As Mark turned a corner, he came face-to-face with Celia, who stood anxiously outside a glass-paneled room, her gaze fixated on what lay beyond.From her point of view, a nurse inside was monitoring Mary Ellen’s heart rate, her lips curved in a small, approving smile.“Celia...” Mark’s voice softened at the sight of her.“Mark!” Celia beamed. “She woke up! Oh, I’m so happy...”They embraced warmly, a reunion captured by a nearby photographer who had been lying in wait with a reporter.A flash. Then stillness. The moment froze — Mark and Celia locked in a tender hug.The hug eventually ended. Mar
Chapter 510 Katrina’s Decision
Inside Mark’s office, Karl was already pacing around his desk, eyebrows furrowed in outrage. The scandal involving Luana had clearly pushed him to the edge.“This is absurd!” he snapped. “That photo makes it look like Luana caused some irreversible brain damage!”Ribeiro, sitting nearby, raised a brow and countered coldly, “So you’re saying you’d only care if it had caused brain damage, Mr. Carvalho?”“Ugh, no!” Karl growled. Then, gesturing toward Mark, he added, “See? He twists everything I say!”Mark, ever the composed mediator, raised a calming hand. “Karl, Sergeant Ribeiro is just trying to help. You and Luana need to understand the consequences of your actions.”“I tried to stop Luana!” Karl protested.“But it wasn’t enough!” Ribeiro barked back. “You’re only dominant with her in bed, just enough to make her lose the ability to walk?”The fury in Karl’s face was volcanic, his lips quivering with words he hadn’t yet unleashed.Then, as if by divine intervention, Mark’s cell phone
Chapter 509 You Can’t Buy Happiness
At Vasconcelos Company, in Gilson’s office, he and Claudia sat surrounded by papers. They were reviewing all of Briana’s promoted shows, deciding which to cancel.A stack of printed programs lay between them. Despite boasting excellent viewership ratings, nearly every single show had been crossed out with aggressive red pen strokes — driven more by personal spite than professional logic.“I wonder if my brother finally stopped fooling around and came to work,” Gilson muttered, squinting at the paperwork.Claudia slammed her hand down on the desk, scattering documents and breaking one of her perfectly manicured nails.“Forget those perverts, my love!” she snapped. “Don’t you see we have a golden opportunity here?”Gilson leaned forward, narrowing his eyes. “You’re right. While no one’s paying attention, we can axe all these shows no one watches.”At that moment, Katrina stormed in and slammed the door shut with a loud bang, sighing heavily.“Hello, darling,” Claudia greeted, almost as
Chapter 508 James Got a Job
Left alone with Briana, Luana adopted a smug, confident posture. “Brie, good morning. What’s on the agenda?”“You had a lot to do yesterday after lunch,” Briana said icily. “But no one could find you.”“I was home. Being protected. By my boyfriend.”Briana shook her head slowly, seeing right through that excuse. “Mark tried visiting. He heard your screaming and... other noises from the hallway. So tell me, did that help at all?”Luana crossed her arms. “I just came from the precinct. I was honest and real with the sergeant.”“Did you say you were sorry?”“NO!” Luana scoffed. “I said everything I’d been choking on for weeks!”Briana looked stunned, horrified by Luana’s complete lack of self-awareness.******Just a few doors away inside Mark’s office, Karl had approached the door but paused as he heard voices inside. It was Ribeiro, speaking with Mark.“She didn’t express regret?” Mark asked, clearly troubled.“It’s complicated, Mr. Ferro,” Ribeiro said. “Your wife’s friend may be faci
Chapter 507 The New Sponsor
After Nestor exited, slamming the door behind him, Claudia turned to Gilson, practically seething with envy.“Sweetheart, don’t you think those two—”“No, dear!” Gilson interrupted quickly. “Don’t picture my brother doing that. Gross!”“I’m not picturing him, I’m picturing her,” Claudia shot back bitterly. “As annoying as she is, I seriously doubt your brother can keep up with her in bed.”Gilson reached for his phone. “I’ll check.”Determined not to let Sandro and Nadir win even in the realm of intimacy, he dialed their mansion.Moments later, in the hallway of the Vasconcelos Mansion, the butler stood awkwardly outside the Sandro’s suite, phone pressed to his ear and cheeks flushed in embarrassment.“Young Mr. Vasconcelos,” the butler stammered, “I’m not sure I should answer such a thing...”From behind the closed door came unmistakable sounds: creaking bedsprings, rhythmic thudding against the wall, Nadir’s giggles, and Sandro’s animalistic growls.Back in Gilson’s office, the CEO
Chapter 506 Lord Ferro, as Always, Was in Control
Over at the dusty studios of Pratt Entertainment that same morning, James and Armando were eyeing Ray with suspicion. He was creeping around the space like he didn’t belong there — which he didn’t. Still, Ray flashed a goofy smile, pretending to be clueless.“Hey,” he said, shrugging, “you guys been reading too many of those son-in-law webnovels, huh?”James, clearly not in the mood, barked, “Cut the crap! You’re not even supposed to be here!”Armando chimed in, “You don’t even know what show you’re cast in.”Ray made a sweeping gesture toward the space. “Isn’t it around here?”“This was the set of Love Is the Cure,” Armando explained. “You’ve probably heard of that prime-time telenovela. We had to sell the rights just to afford groceries.”Ray gave a dramatic sigh. “Tough times. Well, now you can either buy it back or just make something new.”James’s tone was sour. “My dad’s got stacks of scripts ready to go. We don’t need relics from the past.”Ray raised his hands in surrender. “A
Chapter 505 Zero Remorse
At GLAMOUR headquarters, Briana pushed open the door to her office. It was empty, and she sighed softly.“Luana, you’re being missed...” she murmured to herself.Behind her, Karl appeared, dressed for once in a proper shirt and tie.“Hello, Briana.”She turned swiftly. “Karl! Where’s Luana?”Karl answered awkwardly, “She went to the police station. I’m sorry, Briana.”Briana moved toward her desk, her tone sharp. “She should be apologizing — to me, Celia, and Mary Ellen, who’s lying in a hospital bed right now.”“She lost her temper,” Karl tried to explain, voice low.“From what I’ve heard, she asked Mary Ellen if Celia was planning to sleep with you again.”Karl’s face flushed with shame. “A baseless question.”“Exactly,” Briana snapped. “That again implies it was premeditated. And knowing that the drugged coffee was meant for me, I feel personally offended that Luana’s bringing that up like it’s somehow Celia’s fault.”Her frown deepened as Karl looked away, swallowing his words.**
Chapter 504 Gilson and Claudia Don’t Give Up
Back at Vasconcelos Company, in Gilson’s office, the CEO was once again fiddling with the panels on his door, checking their alignment as if his life depended on it. Claudia sat on the couch nearby, reviewing a freshly updated list of internal changes set to affect the company.Unbeknownst to her, the very couch she sat on was the one where her supposedly faithful husband had defiled more than one assistant.“Darling,” she snapped, clearly irritated, “Forget the door for a second and listen to this!”Gilson turned, offended. “Why does no one respect my door? It has my name on it!”If people didn’t respect the CEO’s door, he reasoned, they didn’t respect the CEO.Claudia didn’t disagree. “Indeed, they don’t respect you! Look at the decisions Sandro and Nadir have made!”“Where are they, anyway?” Gilson demanded.******The answer was bouncing rhythmically beneath the covers of a king-sized bed, in Sandro’s suite. The entire bed shook with wild abandon as its two occupants — Sandro and
Chapter 503 Catching a Spy
Back at the Ferro House, still in the master suite, Briana set her phone down and began sponging her arms and shoulders, mulling over her father’s news.Moments later, Mark stepped into the bathroom, dressed in a sky-blue robe, gazing at her as if she were a goddess.“Good morning, my love,” he said tenderly.“Good morning. I just spoke to my father — right before my mother devoured him alive,” Briana quipped.Mark stiffened, a little embarrassed to be privy to his in-laws’ bedroom antics. “What did he say?”“They’re thinking about firing Katrina. Apparently, she finally showed her face at the mansion.”Mark sat beside the tub, running his fingers through her hair and brushing bits of foam from her skin. “You know, Katrina spent most of her time in Lagoon City spying on me. Ray Dixon showing up was like divine intervention — he distracted her.”Briana tilted her head, teasing. “It’s almost like you sent him there on purpose, sweetheart.”Mark hesitated. How could he possibly explain t
