The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 104 Another Confusion
Matthew and Cindy wake up in a good mood. They’re in the bathroom getting ready for another day of routine. Matthew shaved looking in the sink mirror while Cindy relaxed in the bathtub.A stool near the bathtub held her cell phone. Message notifications were buzzing all the time, making Matthew frown.“I got curious, my dear. What do these people talk about so much?” He asks her.“Let me see...” Cindy wipes the suds off her right hand and picks up her cell phone. She smiles, “Ah, they’re my fans, honey. They’re congratulating me on the article.”“What article?” Matthew looked serious, having a bad feeling.“The article I wrote about Jackson Borges! I told you everyone would love that gossip. Now he and Patricia will become famous, and—”Matthew turns violently towards Cindy. Even though he had some shaving foam on his chin and was only wearing a towel wrapped around his waist, the sight was not something for Cindy to drool over, but rather, to fear.“CINDY!” He roars like the king of
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 105 Cindy’s Expulsion?
Matthew showed up at the university, expecting Abner to be there.“Hello, Young Master Sterling.” Dean Meirelles greeted him respectfully, “Did you come to talk to your grandfather? Today he is here, you were lucky.”“I don’t know if that was luck or if he knew I needed to talk to him urgently.” Matthew smiles gently, “Can I pass?”“For sure.” Meirelles accompanies him.Abner was typing something on the computer. Meirelles enters first.“Mr. Sterling, your grandson wants to talk to you.”“I imagined.” Abner keeps his gaze fixed on the monitor, typing, “Let him pass.”Meirelles gestures for Matthew to pass.“Grandpa, Evan informed me what happened to the Rocha family.”“Where’s your girlfriend?” Abner continues to stare at the monitor and type.Matthew swallows hard. Should he tell his
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 106 Matthew Is Not Blind
In the dean’s office at Sterling University, Matthew found himself in an unusual situation. David Rocha, even though he was wrong in the story that was published in the newspapers, is now in front of our hero demanding that his girlfriend be thrown out.“David, you offended my best friend because she had the decency not to hope for a stable, lasting relationship. You can even complain that my girlfriend published the story, but don’t talk to me like you’re a helpless victim. I imagine what you must have said to Patty.”David swallows hard. “Maybe you don’t know, but I also have a heart and feelings.”Matthew tilts his head back and laughs uproariously, “HA, HA, HA, HA! That’s the joke of the century! Come on!” Matthew stops laughing, “Months ago, you wanted to perform a gangbang with her and your friends there in the middle of the square, for everyone to watch and put on the Deep Web!”“I regretted it bitterly and demanded that my friends ask for forgiveness.” David retorts.“Why? Did
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 107 Let’s Avoid Any More Confusion
At the Borges house, Jackson was now dressed and taking care of cleaning his beloved pool. Vanda appeared with a tray of orangeade as if she were the maid and not the lady of the house.“Son, here is some juice that Mom prepared for you.” Vanda places the tray on one of the sun loungers.“Mom, I’m in trouble. Should I admit my celebrity status?” Jackson asks as he stares at the pool, running the net through the water and sifting through dry leaves.“Yes, my son. People don’t know us or why we live here.” Vanda winks mischievously, “It would even be nice if we brought Matt some publicity.”Jackson faces his mother, “Yes, let’s take advantage and say that thanks to Matt, we live in this beautiful house. People will stop thinking badly of him and see him as a great guy who does good deeds for the unfortunate.”“And with your sister dating Matt’s cousin, everythin
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 108 Calling in the Favor
At the Happy Snack Bar, Cindy intended to have a private conversation with Jackson, but was almost scared to death when she discovered her boyfriend in the same place, just when Matthew had just said that they were supposed to avoid confusion.Clayton thought the irony of the situation lay in the fact that Cindy was the journalist who sowed the seed of discord.But for Jackson, the danger was that he wanted to talk to his friend’s girlfriend without his knowledge!Matthew turns around and finds a frozen Cindy at the door. “Honey, come in! What a coincidence, we were just talking about you.”“About me?” Cindy walks in, her eyes wider than before, “You were talking about avoiding trouble. How come I’m the one causing this?”“And let’s pretend we’re blind and stupid.” Matthew chuckles as he wraps his arm around his girlfriend.Clayton frowns. He preferred Matthew with Patricia, but his friend chose the indiscreet journalist... “Miss, don’t you know that you acted very badly in publishing
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 109 The Plan Has Begun
At the Borges House, the family ate dinner in the dining room, as determined by Vanda, without Jackson around.“Where is this boy?” Hélio asked while chewing the chicken stroganoff.“Let him have fun, darling.” Vanda smiled delightedly, “He’s definitely broadening his horizons, meeting new people, partying around. He’s a celebrity now, remember that.”Hélio wrinkles his nose, “Let’s see how long this lasts.”Patricia sighs, trying to hide the deal she made. She just hints, “If it’s up to a certain person, Jackson will be famous forever. He just has to seize the moment.”“Take advantage of the moment to do what? Go on TV, on one of those reality shows?” Hélio asks in disdain.“No, he needs to meet rich girls to marry one of them.” Vanda responds, “That’s how it happened in the book—”“Mom, rest assured that Jackson will chart his own path,” Patricia responded, looking at her father who was motioning to slap his wife.Vanda didn’t notice the attack she almost suffered and continued to e
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 110 Dumb Cindy Doesn’t Put 2 + 2 Together... AGAIN!
Cindy opens her eyes as wide as possible and loses all the sleep she has. How will she answer this dangerous question?She gathers the strength to lean against the headboard and tries to smile, “Seems like it’s a little late for that question, don’t you think?”“No.” Matthew continues to smile, but Cindy doesn’t feel at ease, “Yesterday, we were busy making love in the bathroom stall, but now, we can talk peacefully. I missed you at dinner. You didn’t even know what happened.”Cindy makes a risky move, “Did your aunt Andreia move here without her husband and son?”Matthew loses his pose. He widens his eyes as if asking “How did you know?”Cindy is relieved to see that she got it right, “That was it, right? I noticed. She had two suitcases when I saw her, and no sign of the rest of the family. I wouldn’t be a smart journalist if I didn’t realize wha
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 111 Matthew, Vengeful and Matchmaker
At Golden Letters, Matthew was elated. His intervention to censor Jackson’s most daring photos paid off. To improve even further, an article written by another journalist has already sparked the frenzy among fans.Matthew had no idea that Marilza was at odds with Cindy. The important thing for him is to know if Cindy would be furious about the disappearance of the photos. If she questions him...The image of Patricia appeared in Matthew’s mind. He leaned back against the back of his chair and smiled like a teenager. Patty...Augusto entered the room and asked, “Boss, did you have anything to do with the censorship your friend suffered?”Matthew straightens up and plays dumb, “What censorship?”“Don’t act stupid.” Augusto smiles mischievously, “We’re among friends, you can trust me. I’ll even close the door.”Augusto closed the door, but Matthew wasn’t in the mood to talk about it.“Augusto, I need you to communicate with Jonah Lopes. He accepted the invitation to my party, but I need

One week later, the sun rose over Blue Cove, casting golden light across the coastal city in its peaceful morning awakening, the waves gently lapping the shore.Inside the Sterling Mansion, Matthew stood in Abner’s old study, phone to his ear. As the call ended, Evan entered the room just in time to catch the tail end of the conversation.“Okay, I’ll arrange for a new office space — or maybe I’ll just stick with the master suite,” Matthew said, hanging up with a smile.“Good morning, young Matthew,” Evan greeted him.“Morning, Evan. I’ve got great news.”“I’m ready,” Evan replied, standing at attention.“Have the maids prepare the master suite,” Matthew instructed. “Grandma Alice and Grandpa Abner are returning from vacation.”Evan blinked in surprise, clearly not expecting that announcement. “Very good news, sir. But I thought—”“Evan,” Matthew interrupted with a serious tone, “as my secretary, you deserve to know. Two weeks ago, I discovered that Lawrence Vieira is actually my fathe
Chapter 940 Mentioning the Moving
That evening at the Beach House, Vicente emerged from the master bedroom carrying two suitcases, with Nathan close behind him.“Dad,” Nathan began, “the apartment that used to be Elaine’s still has furniture. It’s not the same quality as what you’re used to here, but... I think it’s enough for you and Mom to live in with Victor until you buy new stuff.”Vicente chuckled. “Yeah, I think we’ll survive with old furniture until then.”“At least the monetization from your channel—”Vicente’s expression darkened, cutting him off. “Son, the last thing on my mind right now is that damned career.”His eyes drifted toward the piano in the corner, a symbol that once meant everything to him, now just a reminder of what had gone wrong.Nathan sighed. “Dad, you’re aiming your anger at the wrong target.”Vicente’s voice grew quiet. “Your mother suspects Karl might’ve been behind the ‘accident.’”That made Nathan pause, rubbing his chin as he considered it. “I hadn’t thought of that.”“Sergeant Carva
Chapter 939 Caught a Cold in the Rain
That evening, at the Andrade Clinic, a soft creak signaled the opening of the door to Andreia’s room. Matthew stepped in first, followed closely by Elaine.Andreia, reclining against the adjustable headboard of her hospital bed, cradled baby Victor in her arms. She looked up with a warm smile as they entered.“Hi, Matt! Look, Victor — your cousin’s here!” she said, her voice light with affection.Elaine masked a brief grimace, one that only Matthew noticed. The couple approached the bedside slowly, their steps respectful.“He’s a beautiful baby, Aunt Andreia. Congratulations,” Matthew said sincerely.“How have you been doing?” Elaine added, forcing a polite tone.“I’m doing well. And the baby’s healthy, thank God. Vince just left — he went home to grab a few things.”Elaine glanced at Matthew again, suspicion rising in her eyes. She wasn’t convinced Andreia’s mention of Vince was coincidental.“I’m sorry about everything that happened,” Matthew said gently.Andreia tilted her head, co
Chapter 938 What Had in the Backpack
As the evening cast long shadows over the elegant interior of the Andrade Mansion, Walter stepped into the vestibule with a satisfied grin. Jacqueline, already waiting near the foyer, eyed him curiously.“Walt, why did you take so long? Did you spend the whole Sunday at the Lion’s Den?” she asked, tilting her head.Walter’s expression was one of mischief. “Let’s just say I spent the day with Linda, as I should.”Jacqueline’s face lit up with a touch of nostalgia. “Oh, I remember when I spent a day with Zach in the favela. We weren’t robbed and we had a blast! Even ate at a street food stand — it was fun.”Walter chuckled. “And your delicate stomach didn’t act up?”“Who said it did?” she replied, giving his chiseled abs a playful pat. “You and your fitness lifestyle should be more worried about fried snacks than I am.”Walter only smiled more, his mind elsewhere.I must’ve burned countless calories in that marathon... he thought to himself. Aloud, he added, “I didn’t even witness the s
Chapter 937 We’re Not in a Relationship
As the afternoon light waned into the beginnings of dusk, Vicente stood by the window of Andreia's hospital room in the Andrade Clinic. He drew the curtains open again, gazing at the sky, which had started to clear after the storm. The clouds were retreating, leaving behind hints of a serene night.“Looks like we’ll have a starry night, at least,” he said, hopeful.“But it won’t be warm,” Andreia replied from her bed, her voice calm but weary.Vicente turned to her and walked closer, the fluorescent hospital light casting a soft glow on his concerned face.“Sweetheart, do you see now that Nate might be right about us not staying at the beach house to take care of Victor?”Andreia nodded, resigned. “Victor would cry nonstop with the wind slamming against the roof and that creepy foam all around.”“Then it’s settled,” Vicente said, gently. “Moving to the apartment Nate found for us is probably for the best.”She shifted slightly, uneasy. “There’s just one thing that worries me about thi
Chapter 936 Lost My Backpack
That afternoon, inside Linda’s bedroom at the Alvares family house, Paulina was involved in an awkward battle with a mountain of blankets. She pulled from one side, while Walter and Linda, unaware of her efforts, tugged from the other. Eventually, Paulina managed to peel back enough of the layers to reveal Walter’s head, shoulders, and chest.From Paulina’s perspective, Walter was a sight to behold — grinning like a mischievous boy, sweaty, flushed, undeniably sexy. Once again, Paulina had to resist the overwhelming temptation to dive into that cocoon and take her daughter’s place!“Mrs. Alvares, thank you so much for your help,” Walter said, still catching his breath.Paulina stammered, “N-no problem... You should go before Ernie comes back.”“And what about Linda?” he asked.“I’ll tell him she’s resting.”She cast a glance at the blanket pile concealing her daughter, clearly either passed out or fast asleep after the relentless pounding she’d endured since the previous night. Paulin
Chapter 935 Rescued from the Foam
That afternoon at the Andrade Clinic, in Andreia’s room, Sergeant Carvalho finally seemed satisfied with Vicente’s answers. Rising from the visitor’s chair, he gave them both a nod.“OK, Mr. Gouveia. For now, I won’t bother you any further with questions about the case. I can see your wife’s getting uncomfortable.”Andreia shook her head, trying her best to hide her discomfort.“No, Sergeant, it’s just—” she began.“I know, I understand,” Carvalho interrupted gently. “You just gave birth, and you want to focus on the baby. Your husband’s clearly happy too, huh?”“You can say that again,” Vicente replied, smiling faintly.“Well, there’s nothing else I can say for now except that we’ll keep investigating. See you around.”“Thank you very much, Sergeant,” Vicente said, watching as Carvalho waved goodbye and stepped out of the room.Once the door clicked shut, Vicente turned to Andreia, remorseful.“I’m sorry, sweetheart. I lost my temper, and it made you feel unwell.”“That’s not it,” sh
Chapter 934 A Cocoon of Sheets
The storm had finally begun to wane.Inside the Beach House, Bella had found herself some of Andreia’s clothes that fit her surprisingly well, while Jonah had to make do with one of Vicente’s robes, which clung too tightly to his frame. Nathan placed three steaming mugs of hot chocolate on the coffee table.“It’s the best I’ve got for now,” he said, settling into his spot.Bella reached for a mug, offering him a warm smile. “Nate, thank you. We came to visit you because of your baby brother.”“Congratulations,” Jonah added.Nathan sat down on the sofa, eyeing them both with mild suspicion. “My dad called. He was worried I’d be swallowed up by that foamy tide. He’s still at the hospital with my mom.”Bella nodded. “It’s better he stays there.”Nathan tilted his head. “He also said you two stopped by.”Jonah tried to sound casual. “Your little brother’s adorable. He was in the arms of that doctor who took him to the clinic.”“Dr. de Paula,” Nathan said.Bella jumped at the opportunity.
Chapter 933 Sheltering Soaked Strayed Ones
That afternoon, at the beach house, Nathan was startled to find Bella and Jonah soaked from the rain, huddled in the doorway.“What the hell are you two doing out there?” he asked, bewildered.“We wanted to visit you,” Bella explained, shivering slightly, “but the rain caught us by surprise!”“And the sea is acting weird,” Jonah added. “This foam started building up... it looks like it’s snowing around your house!”Nathan frowned at the description, but his hospitality won out. “Okay, come in!”Relieved, Bella and Jonah stepped inside, and Nathan quickly shut the door behind them.“I’ve got the heater on,” he said, “but I’m not sure I have clothes that’ll fit either of you.”“If you have robes, that’s enough,” Bella said hopefully.Nathan looked her over thoughtfully. “I think some of my mom’s stuff might fit you. Can’t say the same for Jonah, though.”Without hesitation, Jonah peeled off his wet shirt, adding just a hint of flair to the gesture. “Don’t worry about me,” he said, a lit
