Here Comes the Lord Chapter 47 No Quarrel in the Party
Luana and Briana couldn't believe what was happening.They showed up at Braz Social Club just to have fun. Their friends wanted to see them again, especially Luana, to reminisce about the old days.But Fernanda also wanted to relive the old days when she fought for attention with Briana.Briana even suspected that the whole party was a scheme by Fernanda to ensnare her and humiliate her in public.As if that wasn't enough, now there's a guy they don't know who's fighting with the party's guest of honor!How is that possible?The atmosphere crackled as Briana's voice rang out, incredulous and defiant. "But that's absurd! Listen here, Luana owes no one an apology."You guys threw this party for her, but your girlfriend has been unpleasant from the start. Luana simply stood her ground." Her words were sharp, showcasing her indignation.Luana crossed her arms. "That's right! I don't even know you, man! Who do you think you are to yell at me like that?"Briana pointed her finger at Fernand
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 48 Go Home To Save Yourself
The class reunion party was in full swing. The DJ was playing songs from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, making the partygoers dance to their parents' music. Mark and Briana discreetly stayed at a table while Luana danced her heart out on the dance floor, surrounded by former classmates. However, the next song was a slow ballad, and people began to pair up to dance slowly. With a song more to his liking, Mark stood up and asked Briana, "Would you like to dance?" Surprised, Briana smiled gracefully and got up, accepting her husband's inviting hand. Not wanting to draw too much attention, Mark and Briana danced where they were. Fernanda watched from a distance, seething with hate and resentment. How does Briana manage it? Why does she ALWAYS manage it? Even though her husband was a broke nobody, it could undoubtedly be said that he was the most handsome and desirable man in the room! Unsatisfied, Fernanda approached Romulo, who was busy eating snacks. Fernanda's disgust intensified at
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 49 A Gang of Weirdos
Mark's irritation was transparent as he learned about the suggestion that he, Briana, and Luana leave the party. His resolve to teach Fernanda and Romulo a lesson remained unshaken.For now, he allowed the women to voice their concerns; after all, it was their celebration.Briana, her arms crossed defensively, stared down Karl with a fierce intensity. "Listen, Karl, we understand your concern. But if anyone should leave the party, it should be Fernanda's boyfriend!""Exactly!" Luana chimed in, her tone sharp. "I'm the guest of honor tonight. My best friend is the main attraction as well."We're here to relive old memories. Who even is Romulo Ribas? Which class or year did he come from?"Karl's worry was evident as he scratched his neck nervously. "Well... I know Mr. Ribas wasn't one of our college classmates.""Then let's ask Fernanda to leave," Briana suggested with a touch of malice.She knew Fernanda would react explosively to such a suggestion!Karl's anxiety reached a fever pitc
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 50 Apology Offer
The atmosphere at the Braz Social Club shifted dramatically, plunging from celebration to chaos in mere moments.The air was thick with confusion as everyone tried to make sense of the new situation.Karl, his voice laced with both curiosity and defiance, spoke up first. "What's going on here? Who are you?"The leader of the intruders stepped forward, his presence commanding. "My name is Víbora, and these are my guys," he announced, his tone dripping with menace.Karl, refusing to back down, replied bravely, "So what? When did you study with us?" His words were met with blank stares from Víbora and his thugs, as if he were speaking a foreign language.Meanwhile, the others in the room could barely conceal their fear."Don't talk down to me, kid!" Víbora barked, his patience wearing thin.Karl remained undeterred. "I'm asking because this event is for former classmates to reconnect and have fun. You don't belong here."Víbora's eyes narrowed as he countered, "You're mistaken, buddy. I'
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 51 Fernanda Shouts the Order
The ballroom buzzed with murmurs as the former college classmates gathered in small clusters, their faces a blend of confusion and disbelief.Mark's eyes darted between the partygoers and the figures who had just walked in — Viper and his gang.They thought Mark had ties to the Viper gang, but in reality, it's Fernanda Gabas who does!How ironic, huh?For Mark, this was very wrong.A snobbish and arrogant woman like Fernanda Gabas wouldn't mix with vandals and hooligans.Then he remembered that Romulo had connections with the underworld. Where is he?Romulo got out of sight before the thugs entered. Was he the one who secretly called this gang and now he was hiding cowardly?Fernanda Gabas stood tall at the center of the commotion, her poise unshaken as she faced Viper.Her smile was a razor-sharp edge in the light. "How have you been, Viper?" she drawled, her voice laced with a venomous sweetness. "I didn't know you were around."Viper's posture shifted from dangerous to obsequious.
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 52 Enough Is Enough
An unspoken dread hung over the gathering like a thundercloud.As the guests whispered and shot wary glances among themselves, Fernanda stood at the center of the storm, her eyes narrowed, projecting an icy indifference.Karl protested with vehemence, "What kind of nonsense is this? Fernanda, you're really okay with Briana being taken away by those thugs?"Fernanda just answered with mockery smile as if the predicament were merely a soap opera playing out rather than a harrowing reality."Everyone knows they're not just taking her for a stroll, right?" snapped a colleague nearby, his cheeks flushed with indignation.Fernanda shrugged, her face as impassive as stone. "That's no longer my problem," she said, her voice colder than the chill of the marble floor beneath their feet.Luana, her eyes wide in disbelief, stepped forward. "What a horrible thing for you to say, Fernanda!" she exclaimed, her horror palpable."Ugh, why all the drama?" Fernanda replied, waving her hand dismissively.
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 53 Víbora Got Really Angry
Hope began to flicker like the first rays of dawn at the Braz Social Club, a small haven where laughter and camaraderie once flourished.As darkness descended, however, it seemed that everything was lost.Briana and Luana watched helplessly as former classmates were cornered by ruthless street gangs, threatened with assaults and human rights violations.All they wanted was a night of fun, yet fear hung in the air like a thick fog.Fernanda Gabas had long been written off in the minds of many as a guest at future parties and events. Her reputation, once vibrant, now lay in ruins!But just when despair threatened to claim them, a most unexpected hero emerged: Briana's husband, Mark.When everything seemed hopeless, who would have thought that the initial salvation would come through Briana's failed and impoverished husband?The thugs from Víbora, menacing and intimidating, were taken by surprise when Mark suddenly freed himself from their grip.One of them, who had dared to touch Briana
Here Comes the Lord Chapter 54 The Gray-Clad Group
Viper tightened his grip on the baton, his eyes locked on Mark.The tension in the room was suffocating as the party-goers held their breaths, each of them acutely aware of the impending clash.Would Mark emerge from this confrontation unscathed?It was one thing to dispatch a few low-level thugs; taking down the gang’s leader was a completely different battle altogether.Just when it seemed that defeat was inevitable, a sudden loud noise pierced the air. The ballroom doors swung open with a force that diverted everyone's attention.Heads turned in unison, surprise washing over their faces as a new group of men entered the scene.Unlike Viper's rowdy crew, these newcomers exuded an air of intimidation, but their entrance was far more organized and respectful.Clad in sharp gray suits that seemed to signify their unity, they definitely weren’t the sort one would expect to see in a brawl.Viper, taken aback by the unexpected interruption, briefly ceased his advance on Mark. What did thi

Rising from his chair, Ray extended a hand to Briana with performative politeness. “Thanks again, Miss Vasconcelos. If my agent likes any of these, he’ll be in touch.”“Thank you for considering Glamour, Ray,” Briana replied, equally courteous.With a victorious smirk, Ray turned to leave, winking at James as he passed. As he exited, his chinos hugged him a little too well — revealing he was very clearly going commando.James stared after him, then looked at Briana in disbelief.“Brie, do you have any idea what just happened here?”Still somewhat distracted, Briana nodded with satisfaction. “Yes. Glamour just landed a class-A actor.”“No!” James exclaimed. “You were just symbolically hit on by that walking hormone. Is Glamour pivoting to triple-X films now?”Briana blinked, the dreamy fog lifting from her mind. “What?! James Ross, you’re being very opinionated in my company.”James held up his hands in defense. “I just don’t want your marriage ending in divorce like mine did.”Briana
Chapter 495 Trying to Escape Interrogation
That afternoon, inside the master suite of Karl and Luana’s apartment, the air was heavy and the walls were shaking. The bed creaked rhythmically until—BANG BANG BANG.A sudden, furious knock at the front door brought everything to a halt. The bed went still. Luana’s feet lay limp at the edge of the mattress, unmoving. Karl’s, on the other hand, jerked sharply as he reacted to the noise. He scrambled beneath the blankets in a panicked shuffle.Sweat-soaked and startled, Karl poked his head out from under the covers. His face was flushed and disoriented, clearly caught off guard by the interruption.“Mr. Carvalho? Miss Barros?” came the voice of Sergeant Ribeiro through the door, stern and unmistakable.“Damn it,” Karl muttered through gritted teeth.With awkward urgency, he disentangled himself from Luana’s exhausted body and threw aside the blanket.In his rush, he only grabbed a pillow to cover himself, stumbling barefoot out of the room and into the living room. Clothes and shoes
Chapter 494 Tapped Conversations
In the opulent yet tension-filled atmosphere of the Vasconcelos mansion, Althea sat regally in the matriarch’s armchair, her gaze fixed on Sandro and Nadir, who occupied one of the lavish sofas before her.Her expression was contrite, a rare admission of vulnerability.“So, there’s no way around it. We’re broke,” she stated with a sigh.Sandro, ever the optimist, leaned forward. “Mother, if we redirect our remaining funds into our ongoing productions, we can regain the audience we’ve lost.”“For example,” Nadir chimed in, “we could finance that podcast featuring that reality show star. You know, the one who got famous overnight?”Althea frowned. “That was another one of Katrina’s ideas. Speaking of which, where is she?”Sandro and Nadir exchanged uneasy glances before he hesitated, “Gilson and Claudia haven’t been able to reach her yet.”Althea’s lips pressed into a thin line. “Until one of my granddaughters takes the reins of our projects, we can forget about any real progress.”“Mot
Chapter 493 An Unusual Job Interview
Briana sat at her desk in the Glamour office, trying to maintain her composure as she conducted an unusual job interview with Ray Dixon. The actor’s confident demeanor made it difficult for her to keep her thoughts in order.“Mr. Dixon...” she began hesitantly.“Ray,” he corrected smoothly, his tone dripping with charm.She cleared her throat. “Ahem... Are you aware that we will be launching new productions in the coming months? We’ve recently partnered with Pratt Entertainment.”Ray feigned ignorance, his eyebrows raising slightly. “Great news! Hey, didn’t they go bankrupt?”Briana frowned. “They disappeared for a while, but it seems they’re back. My husband managed to bring them under Glamour’s wing during his visit to LCN in Lagoon City.”She still didn’t quite understand how Mark had managed to sink Armando’s company in the first place. Shaking her head, she refocused on the interview.“So, I won’t be working on ‘Times of Glory’?” Ray asked, casually running a hand over his broad,
Chapter 492 You’re the CEO, But I’m Your Older Brother
Gilson lay sprawled on the floor like a sack of potatoes, his pride wounded more than his body.Sandro stood over him, his expression dark and unwavering, ready to go even further if his younger brother dared to lay a finger on Nadir again.Meanwhile, Nadir basked in the feeling of being a queen protected by her king.To Gilson, the scene felt like something out of an ancient Asian drama, where he was forced to kowtow before the victorious enemy.“This is absurd!” Gilson spat, still catching his breath.“Absurd? Absurd is you even THINKING about slapping my wife! What the hell do you think you are?” Sandro’s voice was a low growl.“Oh, but it’s perfectly fine for you to insult my wife with offensive names, huh?” Gilson shot back, his fury barely contained.Sandro crossed his arms. “Am I really insulting her, Gilson? Tell me, what prestigious family does Claudia come from?”Gilson ground his teeth in frustration, unable to answer.Nadir smirked. “Forget him, darling. We have more impor
Chapter 491 A New Heartthrob in the Studios
Frank’s office was tastefully furnished, exuding a conservative elegance that suited a middle-aged man like him. The polished mahogany desk, the leather-bound books neatly arranged on the shelves, and the soft golden glow of the desk lamp all contributed to the air of quiet authority.The room was still, save for the faint rustling of paper as Frank studied scripts with meticulous attention.A sudden knock at the door interrupted the silence.“Come in!” Frank called out, without lifting his gaze from the documents.The door swung open, and James stepped inside with a bright smile. “Dad! Can I come in?”Frank finally looked up, his expression softening. “Not only can you, but you must.”James shut the door behind him and moved toward his father’s desk. “What’s going on?”Frank leaned back slightly, folding his hands together. “I want more details about your trip. I didn’t press you earlier because I didn’t want to seem insensitive. You needed to rest.” He studied his son’s face. “You o
Chapter 490 Reporting a Crime
Sandro and Gilson faced off once again in Sandro’s office at Vasconcelos Company. The tension between them had reached its peak.“I’m sick and tired of your tantrums, Gilson! I’ve had enough!” Sandro snapped.“You never stop giving me reasons to have them!” Gilson retorted, his voice rising.“Why do you have to be so unreasonable?” Sandro demanded.Gilson gestured wildly. “Unreasonable? You’re encouraging our lead actress to go to the competition! Why can’t she be part of our next project?”“Our contract only covered Hope Alive,” Sandro reminded him firmly.Gilson practically screamed, “Then sign a new contract with her for our next project!”Suddenly, Nadir burst in, holding a stack of printed papers in Arial font. “Excuse me, but there won’t be any new projects anytime soon.”Gilson choked on his words, whirling around to glare at his sister-in-law.Alanna furrowed her brow, trying to grasp the situation.Nadir stepped beside her husband and slammed the papers onto the desk.“What d
Chapter 489 Accusation of Sabotage
Later that afternoon, at Vasconcelos Company, Sandro sat in his office, finishing a post-lunch discussion with Alanna Torres at Briana’s request.“You know, Miss Torres, we’re very grateful that you tried working with us,” Sandro said sincerely. “We had high hopes for Hope Alive, but unfortunately, it didn’t work out.”Alanna smiled kindly. “It happens. Not every series succeeds.”“Anyway,” Sandro continued, “if it’s not too much trouble, I’d like to refer you to my daughter. Glamour has multiple projects in the works after the success of Briana’s two shows. My son-in-law just returned from Lagoon City after representing us at LCN.”Alanna’s interest piqued. “Hmm, that sounds intriguing. I should discuss this with my agent—”The door suddenly burst open, revealing Gilson, fuming like a raging bull.“No, you will not speak with your agent!” he thundered.Sandro shot up from his seat while Alanna recoiled from the unexpected outburst.“Gilson, what the hell do you think you’re doing?” S
Chapter 488 Bloody Lunch
Back at Glamour, just as Luana had feared, Celia was carefully crafting an image of herself as a sweet and trustworthy employee rather than taking a lunch break. Briana, however, was growing increasingly distracted, glancing at her wristwatch while her stomach grumbled.“...So, Briana, if it’s not too much, I’d like to work with Karl on the Times of Glory team,” Celia said, her voice soft and persuasive.Briana snapped out of her hunger-induced haze. “Huh? Oh, right. I didn’t know that was an issue.”Celia feigned concern. “Mark assigned me there, but some people have pointed out that he doesn’t actually run the company.”Briana sighed. “Sometimes, I wish he did. The real owner of Glamour has never even reached out to me.”“You’ve never been curious?” Celia asked, tilting her head.“Not really,” Briana admitted. “He always communicates through Gene.” She stretched and stood up. “Anyway, let’s go to lunch?”Celia’s expression darkened slightly. “Do you understand my situation?”Briana
