“Nah, they’re super busy with what they came to do. None of them knew you would show up, right?” Gilson reassured his little princess.

“Right. I stopped by LCN, and the receptionists said that James and Mark caused quite a stir there. They had a meeting with the director of Drama division regarding the series.”

Gilson grimaced. “Meanwhile, our series has dismal results.”

Katrina took a deep breath. “Dad, if Armando Pratt managed to get Alan Campos Rocha’s forgiveness, doesn’t that mean we should take the chance to get closer to them? Just imagine, we’d have another entertainment company for producing our series, maybe even the chance to create another from scratch since ‘Hope Alive’ won’t have a second season!”

Gilson’s eyes widened with the possibility. “That’s right, daughter! We’ll have the support of Pratt Entertainment! Now we’re really going to get out of limbo and soar to the moon! No one will remember Glamour anymore!”

“I’m going to enjoy the nightlife in Lagoon City and get b

    Mark hoped that the commotion caused by Ray Dixon would distract the nightclub patrons enough for him to move around the venue almost unnoticed. Even though he wasn’t that famous, Ray’s presence would ensure that this situation remained the same. With everyone drooling over Ray and most likely Armando, no one would mind the Manager Vasconcelos’ husband wandering ‘aimlessly’ around the corners of the club. Inside, the electronic music pulsed, somewhat different from the now-defunct Red Light.Instead of something reminiscent of decades past, at the Red House, patrons had the freedom to dance as well. The stage wasn’t exclusive to the ‘dancers.’ In other words, the atmosphere was truly that of a nightclub. Mark grinned mischievously as he sat down. Was this the usual arrangement, or had Anthony Curtis’s boss ordered a change overnight after what happened in Braspolis? Ray, James, and Armando sat down as well. “Wow, the name of this club is similar to that one the police shut down

    Katrina found once again the fantastic quartet interacting as if they were great friends. Above all, there was Ray Dixon, the virile and handsome actor she had sinfully coveted even when she was still married to James. Something made her wake up and step back, but it was too late. James had also seen her. “It can’t be! Is the drink already clouding my vision?” “What is it, James?” Mark asked. “She’s here. Katrina is here!” Mark only needed to glance at Ray. The spy understood his next mission. Finishing his drink, he abruptly stood up and left the table. James and Armando blinked in confusion. “What did he go to do?” James asked. “He went to secure your peace,” Mark replied coldly. “Ray went...?” Armando choked on his words. “It’s better for Ray Dixon than James, so later Katrina can announce she’s pregnant, right?” Mark reasoned with mild irritation. It seemed Armando still needed to learn a few things about the real world. Perhaps that’s why he was so easily defeated!

    The next day, Mark was sitting on the bed in his mansion guest room, talking to Regis on his cell phone. “You should have seen how the nightclub operated so perfectly that it SEEMED legit, Regis.” Mark smirked. “But I figured out their game.” “Did they know you were watching?” Regis raised his eyebrows. “No, but they didn’t want to leave anything to chance. That mysterious boss of Anthony Curtis must have given orders to the others, and they made the necessary adjustments to make the club SEEM decent.” Regis, standing in the hallway, smiled approvingly. “But did you see through the charade, Lord Ferro?” “Absolutely!” Mark smiled triumphantly. “Five minutes of talking to the manager named Ivan and I realized he knew what had happened with the Red Light. They are scared. But that didn’t stop the ‘dancers’ from doing their routines. However…” Mark shook his head as he recalled what had happened. “Lord Ferro, what else do you have to say?” Regis became concerned with the sudden sil

    “Dear, I thought you were smarter.” Mark teased. “Don’t believe everything you read.” Briana wasn’t offended, continuing, “I’m keeping an eye on him, Mark.” Mark choked, his eyes widening. What’s this? His wife is keeping an eye on another guy? “Dear, when I get back, I’m going to satisfy your longing. Get ready to take two days off,” Mark announced in a hoarse, commanding voice. Briana, however, rolled her eyes. “Do you think he will renew the contract with Vasconcelos?” “What contract? He told me there won’t be a second season of ‘Flop Alive’,” Mark replied, mocking Katrina’s series. “Then it’s settled! Let’s offer a contract, not just for him, but also for Alanna Torres. She can star in ‘Colorful Kisses’ while Ray Dixon joins the cast of ‘Times of Glory’.” Mark pressed his lips together at the prospect of having Ray in the medieval series that is being talked about more by women than men. However, if his dear wife is referring to the success of her series, who is he to int

    Karl and Luana sat at the kitchen table, enjoying their breakfast with evident enthusiasm. They were eager for Mark’s return, which was expected a few hours later.“They’re on their way, darling,” Luana said, her voice carrying a hint of excitement. “That means we’ll have some news.”Karl, still chewing, raised an eyebrow. “What kind of news could we expect that we don’t already know?”“I have no idea,” Luana admitted, tilting her head thoughtfully. “But with Ray Dixon traveling with him, that can only mean one thing.”Karl swallowed, his expression turning skeptical. “You want to bounce on his lap under the influence of that drug?”Luana rolled her eyes and let out an exaggerated gasp. “No! I want to bounce on your lap—” She suddenly feigned a choking fit. “Ahem! I mean, I want Ray Dixon working on the show Times of Glory! Isn’t that what we should be rooting for?”Karl’s response was indifferent. “Maybe… but don’t forget, that show was made for men.”Luana smirked. “I wouldn’t dream

    Ray knelt before her, his gaze playful, his intent clear.“N-no, that’s not it…” Katrina stammered. “I—I have to get back to work.”Ray’s grin turned sly. “Didn’t you come here to celebrate your divorce?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Katrina huffed. “I came on a mission. An impossible one.”Ray’s eyes glinted with amusement. “A mission, huh? Maybe I can help.”His words calmed her slightly. Maybe he could help.“Well,” she began, her voice turning sweet, “I wanted to know what Armando Pratt and my ex-husband wanted with Mark Ferro on this unusual trip with you.” She leaned closer, her smile teasing. “Perhaps you could tell me.”Ray ran a hand over his towel, teasing her with the possibility of removing it. “Not sure I’m authorized to talk. It’s something related to the LCN.”Katrina traced her bottom lip with her teeth. “Are you sure I can’t convince you?”Ray smirked, leaning in. “I think we can come to an agreement.”Just as Katrina prepared to seal the deal in her own way, her phone rang.She

    At the Ferro house, the morning sun streamed through the grand vestibule as Briana and Mark embraced tightly, savoring the moment after their time apart. Regis and another maid discreetly carried Mark’s luggage inside.“Welcome back, sir,” Regis greeted.“Thanks, Regis,” Mark replied before turning his attention back to Briana. “So, did you miss this handsome devil?”Briana pouted playfully. “Of course. Now I need to cleanse you of all the female germs you picked up while you were away.”Mark pulled back slightly, feigning offense. “Sweetheart, there were no women bouncing on my lap in Lagoon City.”“Mmm-hmm. They probably just didn’t dare.”“I only have eyes for you. Besides, the trip was strictly business, remember?”Briana sighed. “Give me a general summary so I can pass the message along to Glamour.”“Why?” Mark asked, raising an eyebrow.She hesitated. “You’re not thinking about going to Glamour right now, are you?”“Duty calls.”“But you need to rest, darling.

    Gilson felt offended by Sandro’s question. “Why? What’s the problem?”Sandro waggled his index finger. “We need to check with the finance department first to see if we have the funds to start a new production from scratch!”“Oh, come on! We’re not broke, Sandro!”“That remains to be seen,” Nadir interjected.“No one asked for your opinion!” Gilson snapped.Sandro’s expression darkened. “Gilson, if you allow me to insult your wife, I won’t allow the same toward mine!”Gilson felt like he had entered an alternate reality. He was too stunned to respond immediately.“W-wait… Who told you I allow anyone to insult my wife? You two are insane!” he stammered before spinning on his heel and storming off to his office.Nadir looked at her husband with concern. “Honey, he’s going to start accepting new projects just because he’s CEO.”“Possibly,” Sandro admitted. “But my mother is still the family matriarch. She’ll have the final say once she reviews the financial reports.”“Let’s go check in wi

    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

    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

    “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

    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

    “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

    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
