The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 119 What a mother won’t do for her son!
Time goes by. Matthew and Patricia continued to live as if the Most Perfect Night of All Time was a mere dream. He’s still with Cindy, and she’s still with Ronaldo.At one point, they met at the Happy Snack Bar.Clayton sweated and Jackson prepared to defend his little sister from any attack, but so far, the two couples behaved civilly, just taking the precaution of sitting at tables far apart.Jackson approached one of the couples. “What will you want?”“I’d like you to get your promiscuous sister out of here,” Cindy answers venomously.“Cindy, what is this?” Matthew is displeased.“They’re on the other side of the diner.” Jackson frowns, “How are you bothered by this? Enjoy your boyfriend, focus on what you have.”Cindy gets more upset. “Matt, you need to educate your friends on how they should address people. They forget that I’m going to be the next Mrs. Sterling.”Jackson couldn’t hold back a laugh.Matthew glared at him as if to say to Jackson ‘Shut up, you’re going to blow my c
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 120 Signed Contract
The next day, Sheila and Jonah returned from his house.Abner and Alice had the greatest pleasure of hosting Jonah. They just had to turn a blind eye to one small detail.“Jarbas, put my things in Mrs. Sterling’s suite,” Jonah asked ostentatiously, in front of everyone, including the maids.Jarbas swallowed hard and looked at Abner for permission, but the owner of the mansion nodded authorizing.When several people left, Andreia approached Sheila with a condemning smile. “You took good advantage of having immoral relations with the handsome writer, huh?”“A mother does everything she can to help her son. Oops! You’d never understand, you aren’t a mother!” Sheila takes revenge with this simple sentence.Andreia’s eyes widened. Alice approached the two quickly.“Well, I am a mother, and I tell you to stop taking advantage of this promiscuous behavior!” Alice barked.“Alice, I’m very grateful for the years I spent with your son.” Sheila defended herself, “But Karl is no longer with us, a
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 121 New Projects to Make More Money
In order not to interrupt Jonah in the production of his next best-seller, Sheila decided to visit Borges House.She and Vanda were talking animatedly in the kitchen.“Vanda, when are you going to hire servants?” Sheila asked as she watched Vanda meekly placing the dishes in the dishwasher. “You can’t continue in this situation.”“Sheila, our family doesn’t have money like you.” Vanda admits with her head down, “We only have Jackson as a celebrity for now, but as he states, that alone won’t last. That’s why he started studying English. He is now in his room.”“O really?” Sheila narrowed her gaze. “Is he studying online?”“Yes, but it’s not that he’s doing it in a disorganized or methodless way.” Vanda explains, “He bought a course and is being accompanied by teachers. It’s basically an online school, with the differenc
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 122 Alice Is Beginning to Suspicious
With time passing, Cindy still didn’t realize that there was something different with her boyfriend. After all, if she hadn’t been spending too much time with her lover, she’d have noticed that Matthew no longer seeks her out for romantic activities, and when they sleep, they act like siblings sharing the same bed. Not even a goodnight kiss on the forehead.But why would Cindy demand from Matthew what she’s getting from Jackson?The problem is: Cindy didn’t stop to think that this indifferent and cold attitude would bring suspicion to Matthew if he didn’t know the truth. But, this is the Cindy we know, using another part of her body as her brain.So she was calm as she walked hand in hand with Jackson at the secluded spot on the beach where he usually swims.“So, darling, how are English classes?” Cindy asks excitedly.“They look wonderful, darling. I can now form complete sentences and watch ep
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 123 Ronaldo Is Losing Control
Patricia appeared at Silva Oil Company. Fernando found her in the corridors and smiled.“Patricia! How are you, my daughter?”“I’m very well, Mr. Silva.” Patricia tries to smile.“You can call me Fernando, or Dad.” Fernando laughs. “You’re family now.”Patricia felt like vomiting the truth, but she knew it wasn’t time yet. “Ehr... your son asked me to come here.”“He has some commitments, Patricia.” Fernando raises one of his eyebrows. “Naturally, I won’t interfere with your dating, but it would be better if you met during your free time.”Patricia is more relieved and takes the opportunity. “Well, that being the case, I better not get in the way of my future husband. I’m gonna—”“You’re going straight to my office!” Ronaldo magically appears turning the corner, with a friendly smile...
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 124 An Unforgettable Dinner
At LCN, Ricardo wants Cindy to go straight to the Sterling Mansion because of something Patricia is plotting, but Cindy decides to take her time and talk to her ex-boyfriend.“Now, you show interest in my health.” Cindy provokes Ricardo.“Just because we were lovers in the past doesn’t mean I’m not going to stop warning you.” Ricardo frowns. “You’ve been working way too long hours, Cindy. What is this, some wish to demonstrate to Mr. Torquato how efficient you are?”“You just answered your question.” Cindy shrugged.“Perhaps,” Ricardo smiles mischievously. “Maybe the reason is something else.”Cindy felt her back stiff. “What are you talking about?”“Maybe the reason is because you’ve been killing hours of work doing other things and now you’re trying to make up for it by staying until the deadline for the articles to be delivered.” Ricardo smiles wider.Cindy gets more nervous and starts to gather her things, turning off the computer. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Since yo

Cindy understood what was happening the minute she laid eyes on Matthew and Patricia. But she didn’t want to accept it.“No...” She starts laughing hysterically. “Hi, hi, hi... No, don’t tell me you two... MATHEW STERLING!”Alice rolls her eyes. “What is it, Cindy? You can’t even form words properly!”“How am I going to be able to say anything?” Cindy exclaims in a high-pitched and unpleasant tone. “Abner Sterling, you’re the patriarch of this family, so I thought. I demand an explanation NOW!”“How petulant...” Andreia muttered through her teeth.“Do you want to know what’s going on?” Abner asked in a dark tone. “OK, then I’ll tell you, but I don’t know if you’re ready for the truth. Matt, my grandson, decided it would be best for him and us that the next Mrs. Sterling be Patty Borges.”“NO!” Cindy knocked over the chair where Patricia was sitting. “THIS SLUT IS NOT GOING TO STEAL MY POST!”“Wake up, you hysteric! You already lost and didn’t even realize it!” Sheila exclaimed in a sa
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 126 I Feel Like I’m Losing Her
In Ronaldo’s room, he is tying his yellow tie in front of the full-length mirror. He whistles a romantic song from the 80s and puts Patricia’s name in the lyrics as if she were in front of him.“Oh, Patty, I love you so much...”Ronaldo’s cell phone rings and he runs to answer it, thinking it’s Patricia. But he was disappointed when he read ‘MATT’ on the caller ID.“Oh, shit... Hello, Matt? Jeez, did Patty disappear? She was already kidnapped as soon as she started to become famous?”“Good morning, first of all, cousin,” Matthew replied ironically, inside the closet.“OK, good morning.” Ronaldo rolls his eyes. “Is Patty there?”“No,” Matthew responds wisely.“Then why are you calling me? I want to talk to my girlfriend.” Ronaldo sat on the mattress. “Did you give her the message?”“I passed.”“Then why isn’t she—”“Ron, do you really think you can continue talking to Patricia after the rudeness you did yesterday?” Matthew interrupted him, visibly angry.Ronaldo is startled. He had the

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
