Rhodia River - In the stream of love Chapter 337 Carlos in Ricardo's footsteps
CARLOS'S LIVING ROOM - DAYCarlos is standing on his phone, dialing Penha's phone. On the other side, she is still drowsy and goes to the phone to answer it before the ring explodes in her head."Hello?""Miss Oliveira? Carlos Roldão is speaking here. They gave me a phone and I am looking for a kitchenette to rent to a friend. Emerson Ramos."It’s the name of Officer Ramos, from the District where Carlos came from."Ah, okay, because you already have housing, officer.""Do you already know me, miss?""Everyone knows the handsome policeman who served as a poster boy for the police station campaign. I already paid the first monthly fee of the booklet."Carlos smiles. Handsome cop? He can take advantage of that, "Can we make an appointment for later?""At ten in the morning, I'm waiting at the stationery.""Done, see you later."Carlos hangs up. It was too easy!PENHA'S HOUSEPenha hangs up with a sly smile. The policeman always left her on shaky legs. Carlos was more handsome than he al

STATIONERY BUILDING - DAYOn the stairs, Wellington is coming down, when he hears the footsteps of people going up and Penha's unmistakable voice."The only thing that your friend may not like is the big window that was put on, especially on the first floor. If you don't put a curtain on, those who pass the street have a good view from inside the kitchenette."And Carlos's manly voice, "Oh, my friend is one of those who is ‘at ease’ when there’s no one around. I will warn him."And when Wellington makes the turn, he meets the two. Carlos doesn't know Wellington very well, but Penha crosses her eyes with the boy and feels uncomfortable, she lowers her head. Her silence makes Carlos think that she was embarrassed because of his friend."Ah, sorry, did I embarrass you?""Ah, no, I just shut up. Anyway, the kitchenettes..."And the two keep going up, while Wellington keeps going down with a frown.RHODIA AVENUEWellington stops on the sidewalk to see if Luís is arriving with full physical
Rhodia River - In the stream of love Chapter 339 It's Fábio's turn to explain
FÁBIO'S LIVING ROOM - DAYFábio takes a deep breath, takes courage, looks Monica in the eyes, and begins to speak with all sincerity, "Monica, this photo was taken yesterday."Monica is astonished and opens her mouth. So he got even with her! Her heart starts to beat faster. "Fábio... You got even with my archenemy...!"Fábio gets up from the armchair and kneels in front of Monica, his voice shakes due to his despair, "No, Monica, never think about it! Is that what Fábia Peres wants you to think, to separate us? Is it not already clear that she is participating in this trickery of photos and recordings?"Monica is now beginning to think so. But the photos themselves could not have been taken by her."The other photos came out perfect, professional stuff. These came out bad, out of focus... I even thought they were old.""We never take pictures of our intimacy."Monica feels discomfort. She, who remains chaste until the wedding, has to hear her boyfriend indirectly admit that he had re
Rhodia River - In the stream of love Chapter 340 Father to son advice
MALTHUS SNACK BAR - DAYAurélio hastily clears one of the tables and prepares it for José and Ed to sit at ease."It's an honor to see father and son together in my snack bar. Listen to the old man's advice, son, because you don't give a damn about mine."José laughs, but Ed snorts."It's just that you're not my father. You are here to serve us two pastries."Aurélio remains standing where he is, waiting for more details.José says, "Son, you have to detail the taste of the pastry.""He already knows, father." Ed makes drama to Aurélio, "Don't tell me you're going to do this slight, Seu Aurélio! Two pastries of the Gods for yesterday."Aurélio remains still, a slight smile of defiance. Edward WON’T eat plain pastries!José, not understanding the embarrassing climate, tries to say, "Bring two pastries that he mentioned, Aurélio; and two of ground beef for me. Two cans of soda."Aurélio decides to leave, plotting something in mind.Ed is always doing drama and showing, "Phew! Waiters ar

Jonas hugs her without understanding and starts to worry."Jonas, Wellington's story, which also involves Luís... It's really too monstrous! Ricardo Oliveira helped Luís to sell illegal copies of a cassette tape!"Jonas frowns. What the hell, and is Carina going to marry a guy like that? "Hardly anyone who doesn't have an honest occupation can earn honest money.""And now Carina is engaged to that rascal, and if we tell; and if Monica does, she won't believe it."Jonas takes advantage to distill his contempt for Monica, "Sure! Because of Monica, who upset Carina when we didn't have any evidence; now that we have, Carina will think that we are also prejudic

FÁBIO'S LIVING ROOM - DAYFábio appears in the living room rubbing his eyes with one hand, coming from the bedroom, looking like he was sleeping, and only in boxers."Who is it?" Monica's unmistakable voice is heard outside, "Fábio, it's me!"Fábio smiles and ends up opening the door as he is "dressed". Monica gets shocked and covers her eyes, the same reaction as Carina when she sees Ricardo like this."Fabinho! How little shame is that?"Fábio shakes his head to chase off the rest of his sleep, "Monica, calm down that no one else is looking. Will you be ashamed when we go to the beach and I wear swim trunks?"Monica quickly enters only for Fábio to close the door and no one else sees him like that from the street."I see, THIS is the problem. You will never see me even in a nightdress unless we can get married."Fábio closes the door and looks at Monica with a smile. She still kept her eyes covered."That we can 'do it'? Of course, we can do it, love! Wait a minute, I'm

COR-DE-ROSA STATIONERY - DAYRosa is questioned without any tact by Monica about her friendship with Penha. Annie and Sandra, embarrassed, try to mitigate the situation."You know, Rosa..." Sandra begins, "We were needing to know—"Rosa, however, frowns and points a finger at Sandra, "Whoa, wait a minute: who are you and what are you doing here with the others?"Monica and Annie don't understand Rosa's objection.Sandra defends herself, "Excuse me?"Rosa recalls with her index pointed to Sandra, "You were here the other day, a long time ago, with that damn girl who was making fun of Carina for having a meeting with Chief Roldão. You were making fun of her too. What are you doing with Annie and Monica? Have you become friends?"Sandra clenches her fists. Yes, it's been a long time, but Rosa remembered it as if she had an elephant memory. Annie also remembers that after that Carina went to the bakery to tell her that."Rosa, you're right. But, that has been a long time and Sandra regret

CARINA'S STUDIO - DAYWhile Luís is found sleeping by his friends, Carina is wide awake, painting. Penha appears, NOT willing to take her "friend" and "future sister-in-law" to shop.Penha looks at Carina with hatred.

Penha always embarrassed his mother and younger brother.So, fearing that Mr. Oliveira could do something extreme, Ricardo and Mrs. Oliveira did everything to hide their daughter's immoralities from the head of the family. When Penha introduced his first boyfriend, Ricardo was sure that she was no longer a virgin.The suspicion that Mrs. Oliveira had fallen ill due to heartbreak caused by her daughter martyred Penha and filled her with guilt; however, such guilt evaporates when a handsome boy pays attention to her.

Chapter 360 The end of a dream
BAKERY CASCAIS - DAYFábio enters the bakery and is amazed by what he sees: Monica prostrated in the chair, finishing crying, with Annie sitting next to her, comforting her and assuring her that she was not a bad friend for Carina. Jonas continues to serve customers, sometimes taking a look at both.Fábio approaches the two girls with concern, “Monica! What happened?”He kneels to her. Monica smiles slightly, touched by his concern, “It’s okay, Fábio. I was worse. I just remembered Carina and the worst step she’s going to take in her life.”“You are thinking about the lunch she has with the damn parents.”Annie explains, “It’s just that Monica is feeling guilty for not preventing Carina from going to that lunch.”Fábio caresses Monica’s hair, “My love, you tried, but Carina needs to make her decision. After all, everyone has to carry their load.”“She is going to suffer, Fábio. At least I asked her to keep an eye on the family. She could take advantage of the fact that she is going to

Chapter 359 The last chance for Carina
PENHA’S HOUSE - DAYEverybody took the day to ask Ricardo trick questions. However, he felt it was not the time to answer or lie to the inquirers.He just weaves his classic silly little smile and avoids the subject, “Calm down, Penha, you don’t need to create conspiracy theories. The guy disappears from the bar for three days without giving any satisfaction. I thought he moved out of the neighborhood. I didn’t understand the disappearance.”Penha narrows her eyes, hardly believing what she heard. He kidnaps Wellington and then asks “why did he disappear?”“I hope he disappears. I always thought he was too good for your business. You were in danger of being reported by him.”Penha already knew the truth, since Wellington had told her. She just teased Ricardo, as if she had fun with it. She wanted to see his reaction.Ricardo was more nervous, tense, taking a deep breath, and “counting to three” so as not to reveal himself more than he did at the Malthus snack bar. Not with Penha.“Any

MALTHUS SNACK BAR - DAYAurélio is teaching Luís how to properly serve customers. Wellington is sweeping. Nobody notices the window, where Ricardo is looking at the three with dismay.Ricardo goes back a few steps and enters the snack bar even with the “closed” sign on the door. The three men turn their attention to the door opening and closing and are surprised.“Ricardo?” the owner says, “We haven’t opened it yet, but we already have snacks in the showcase.”Ricardo looks with disgust at the snacks, “I don’t want to be a victim of the ‘Salmonella bar’ anymore. What are these two doing here?”Disgusted, Wellington drops the broom and approaches him, “You can ask us, directly. We are here!”Aurélio gestures for Wellington to calm down.Ricardo goes on talking, “And you, Wellington? Are you working here now? Aren’t you going back to the bar? Rubens is waiting for you until now!”Wellington looks at Aurélio in doubt, Aurélio responds affirmatively with a slight nod.“No, Ricardo, I won’

Chapter 357 Moving out
PENHA’S HOUSE - NIGHTPenha is disgusted by Ricardo’s unexpected visit just to ask if she is going to lunch tomorrow. Because she had no intention of going.Even with her clear body language: pouting, arms crossed and one foot hitting the ground, Ricardo does not undo the classic little silly smile.“Did you interrupt my movie... for this?”Ricardo sits in the armchair closest to the coffee table and puts his feet on top. Penha can see from the soles of one of his shoes that Ricardo stepped on ox feces.“Get those dirty feet off my coffee table!”“You haven’t confirmed me yet, sis. The dress that Carina chose is beautiful. Did you choose yours?”“Get outta my house now!”Ricardo threatens to rub his foot with his dirty shoe, showing that he knows the situation of his shoe.“Come on, sis, say yes! A family lunch, with dad and mom...”Penha is about to cry, she is very nervous. She just wants Ricardo to leave, “Please, Ricardo, stop this clowning! I’m not going to show up for lunch to h

PENHA HOUSE - NIGHTAfter Penha and Wellington cancel the lease agreement, the two say goodbye and Wellington leaves. Carlos leaves behind, without saying a single word, just smiled mysteriously at Penha, as if he knew she had just slept with Rubens.Then she takes a forgotten flannel in a corner and begins to try to clean the spilled coffee on the sofa, as it has practically dried, staining the fabric. Rubens, sensing the empty house, leaves the room furious and in long strides.Rubens takes Penha violently by the arm and makes her turn to him. Penha is startled by being taken by surprise and widens her eyes.“Hey, what are you doing?”“What did that kid come to do here?”Penha tries to get rid of Rubens, but he won’t let her go.“Let go of me! He just came to end the lease! He won’t be living in the kitchenette anymore!”“Did you send him to the bar today?”“I was so shocked by his decision that I didn’t even remember!”Rubens squeezes Penha’s arm tighter and she screams more, “You

WELLINGTON KITCHENETTE - DAYCarlos cornered Rosa asking her to explain to everyone how Penha is Ricardo’s sister. She gulps, nervous.Wellington looks at her more deeply than the others.Finally, she decided it was time to end the mysteries. She gets up to explain better, “Yes, people. It’s true. Ricardo is Penha’s younger brother. However, since they moved here and built the building, they have presented themselves as lovers.”“But, why is that disgusting lie?” Everybody notices Wellington’s afflicted and distressing tone.“Because Ricardo believes that by presenting himself as a boyfriend, he prevents other men from flirting and taking Penha to bed.”The girls are embarrassed.Annie blushes and asks, “Doesn’t Penha know how to simply say ‘no’ to the perverts?”“No. She deliberately accepts to sleep with anyone who invites her. She has a boyfriend who is in Europe doing a Master’s or Doctorate and doesn’t even dream that his darling is horning him.”Wellington is very ashamed of him

Chapter 354 Time to revelation
RHODIA AVENUE - AFTERNOONMore people gather to see Célio’s rescue, which hung in the window of Wellington’s kitchenette. Even Aurélio and his clients left the snack bar to see.“Guys, these windows... Who was the idiot who bought these big windows?”Monica, Sandra, and Annie exchange mocking gazes: they all imagined it was Ricardo’s idea with the masons.WELLINGTON’S KITCHENETTECarlos strides in and goes to the window.“Hang in there, boys!”With another strong man, it was easier to pull Célio back safely. When they finally succeed, he can hear the palms and cheers of those present from below. Célio runs to Wellington’s bathroom to throw up, he’s still scared.Wellington and Luís laugh out loud. Carlos then notices the boxes and suitcases, “Hey, what’s going on here?”Wellington stops laughing and announces to Carlos, “Officer, I’m moving out of here. I don’t think is right to live in the place where I have to pay rent for my kidnapper’s girlfriend.”Carlos smiles in understanding,

PENHA’S HOUSE - DAYPenha opens the door for Rubens, who hurries in and looks worried. She closes the door and signals him to sit down.“I was going to offer you coffee, but you need chamomile tea.”“This is no time for jokes, Penha! The situation is getting more complicated.”Penha purses her lips in indifference; everyday things are complicated. She sits in the other armchair, “Every day you live in confusion. You guys don’t seem to want to live in peace. And if I guess, it has to do with Monica and her friends.”Rubens doesn’t like the tone of Penha’s voice and replies harshly, “It has to do with that bastard Wellington who didn’t come to the bar neither Wednesday nor yesterday! What is he thinking?”Penha, on the outside, remains calm and indifferent; but inside, she is overflowing with relief. It was what she wanted most, for Wellington to get out of that snake’s nest, “You’ll see, he found a better job and couldn’t even tell you.”“We paid above the minimum!”Penha is irritated

MIRIAM’S ROOM - DAYMiriam is talking to Fábia Peres. The two got on well again after Sandra’s advice. Cleverly, Miriam leads the conversation to the topic of lawsuits.“Oh, Fábia, you don’t know the worst: I talked to Carlos and he said that he won’t insist on objecting to his fate at the trial. That he will acknowledge that he was wrong and accept the punishment.”Fábia Peres is gaping. Then the officer who always behaved like a warrior, dropping the towel so easily?“What does the officer have in mind, Miriam?”“He said he doesn’t mind losing the case, as long as he can get Ricardo behind bars. He’s gathering proofs and evidence.”“And is Carina going to marry this guy?”“Hopefully, she’ll fall flat on her face when she finds out the whole truth on her honeymoon, with the police invading their suite, ha, ha!”The two girls giggle maliciously.“Girl, on the subject of the trial, I’ve been thinking about something. If the officer is not offended, I can ask my father to pay the compen
