The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 132 Liz Wants a Definition
The next day, Patricia and Matthew woke up at the same time, with both of their cell phones ringing the alarm at the same time. They really looked married, doing things in sync.“Yawn... good morning, my love.”“Good morning, my passion.”They both get up: Patricia, in her nightgown; Matthew, in his birthday suit.Patricia bites her lower lip in lust as she watches her boyfriend walk uninhibitedly to the bathroom. Then, she doesn’t wait any longer and takes out her cell phone to send a message.‘I moved into the Sterling Mansion after he saw the photo. Thanks!’Afterward, she went to the closet to choose something to wear.Meanwhile, Matthew was under the shower soaping himself, but his gaze seemed distant with other thoughts.He couldn’t forget the photo.If Matthew still had any doubts about something going on between Cindy and Jackson, that photo was definitive proof. Maybe he should discuss this with Patricia to justify the discipline he was applying to Jackson...But as he though
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 133 Cindy Literally Overturned the Table
In the middle of the street, Liz questioned Sheila about the situation with their children.Sheila was embarrassed to be questioned openly and gestured for her sister-in-law to go to the mansion. “I didn’t understand your question.”“I think you did,” Liz complained. “I’m referring to the fact that my son Ron is heartbroken after Matthew showed up in his office announcing that Patty no longer wants him as her boyfriend.”“Ah, that...” Sheila sighed.“After that, I never heard from Patty again!” Liz whinnied. “Where is she? Why didn’t she come to us to formally announce the dissolution of their relationship? Ron is devastated and barely leaves his room to feed! Yesterday, he didn’t even take a shower and his beard is horrible.”“Oh, heavens, tell your son to clean himself. Girls hate smelly men.” Sheila seemed to mock Ronaldo.“He only cares about one girl’s opinion.” Liz retorted. “And then? Do you understand where I’m getting at?”“Yes, Liz. I’m very sorry.” Sheila stares at her. “It
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 134 Patricia Doesn’t Run Away from the Challenge
Matthew appeared at the university square after Walter and Patricia finished talking. He met with Jacqueline. They both chose the same table where the previous couple was.“Is it okay for us to talk, Jacque? Or is the matter confidential?”Jacqueline looked at her cell phone. “Walt came in. I think your class is about to start, so I won’t be long.”Matthew smiles gently. “I confess that I was curious about your call. What do you have so important to tell me?”Jacqueline swallows hard and decides to speak at once, “Matt... Walt doesn’t intend to tell you because he doesn’t want to put worms in your head. I also don’t know all the details, so I don’t want you to think I’m making a strong accusation.”“Ok, I got it.” Matthew nodded.“I saw Walt talking to Patricia at the Gibraltar Club yesterday.” Jacqueline narrated, “He was practically arguing with her. I’ve never seen him so serious with her as yesterday. After she left, I looked closely and saw that there was a bruise on my brother’s
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 135 A Distraction For Ronaldo
Matthew left the university after classes. He said goodbye to Walter and both went on to their car.In the parking lot, Leonardo was a little lost looking for a luxurious car that could match his grandson’s style. But he was surprised to see Matthew getting into a ten-year-old Citroën. Although the car was well maintained, it was undeniable that the model was old.“Matt!” Leonardo approached as quickly as he could, because of his age.Matthew heard someone calling him and was surprised to see that it was his maternal grandfather. “Hi, Grandpa Leonardo! What are you doing here? Today, Grandpa Abner went straight to headquarters.”“Is he still occupying the office that should be yours?” Leonardo smiles, looking like a kind Santa Claus with his white beard. “Perhaps he isn’t yet willing to hand over the throne to you. How about you stop by Silva Oil Company? Has Fernando already shown you our facilities?”“I haven’t looked at the harbor closely yet,” Matthew admitted. He had a feeling th
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 136 Matthew Asks for a Favor
After having lunch with his Grandfather Leonardo, Matthew headed to Golden Letters. As he passed through the revolving door, he greeted Nayla.“Good afternoon sir.” Nayla felt guilty, “Word is that that envelope I received brought you bad news. I’ll understand if you want to fire me.”Matthew smiled kindly. “Don’t worry, Nayla. I know the content wasn’t your fault. Your job is guaranteed.”Nayla smiled in relief. “Thanks! I promise to be more careful next time.”Matthew didn’t understand what Nayla meant. Is she promising to open his mail just so he doesn’t get upset?After reassuring her once again, Matthew used the stairs, as always, to go to his office. Most employees used the stairs and stopped using the elevator. Only the extremely lazy and sedentary ones insisted on using the elevator to go one floor higher.There, Elaine approached him, “Matt, I’ve been reading Jonah Lopes’ novel. It’s delicious! Yes, it seems like I’m reading plagiarism from Gabriel Mattos, but I understand wh
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 137 Patricia and Ronaldo Meet
The next day, Patricia woke up and stretched, but once again, she didn’t find her lover.Matthew was focused on the computer, analyzing competing teaching platforms to learn something. And if possible, offer better service to future students/clients.Patricia smiled. She is proud to see the man of her life so dedicated to business.“Good morning, my dear!”“Good morning, Patty.”Patricia, taking a deep breath, decided to get up and go to him. Wearing a pearl-colored nightgown, she approached her shirtless boyfriend in plaid boxer shorts, half hunched over at the computer table.She strokes her beloved’s muscular back, smiling slightly and speaking in a soft voice. “Honey, I need to let you know what I intend to do today.”“Some mischief?” Matthew chuckles.“Some almost impossible mission: talking to Ron.”“This is truly an impossible mission. Impossible because you’re not going there.”Patricia’s eyes widened. “Huh? Why can’t I go there?”Matthew turned to her. “You think I’m going to
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 138 Matthew Is for Freedom of the Press
Matthew took offense to Walter’s question as he practically accused him of seducing his younger sister.“Walt, you’re overreacting! Jacque doesn’t have a crush on me. She’s my friend and I wanted to ask her a favor. Is Ronaldo really that degenerate?”“The way the story is going...” Walter sat down at his desk.Matthew frowned. “Well, you’ve known these people longer than I have. When I was in the favela, I never heard of Ronaldo.”“He’s not one to be in the tabloids like Nathan,” Walter admitted.“So it’s not the same if I had asked Jacque to date Nathan!” Matthew convinces himself that he is doing the right thing.“But I don’t think it would be right for Ronaldo to be fooled once again into a relationship that won’t progress.” Walter sighs.Matthew was more intrigued by Walter’s words. “Hey, Walt... you’re not including Patty in that sentence, are you?”Walter swallows hard and stares at Matthew, thinking about what to say. “It never crossed your mind, right?”“No.”Walter remembers
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 139 The Truth Has Been Established
As Ronaldo already got up, took a shower, and shaved himself, he decided to work and show others that he was still alive.Ronaldo's office was cleaned up after he ransacked everything. Some personal items were recovered. The computer, however, couldn’t be saved. That's why Ronaldo only saw the desk without it."Oh damn. How will I work? Using my cell phone?” He scratched the back of his head.Leonardo suddenly appeared. "Little grandson! I was informed by the security team that you came today!”“Calm down, grandpa. It’s no reason to celebrate.” Ronaldo gestured awkwardly."For sure! Tell me: Patty Borges showed up at the penthouse and explained everything to you?”“Yes, she explained.” Ronaldo became serious. “She explained to me that she never loved me in the first place. I was just an idiot who appeared in front of her to make Matt jealous.”Leonardo didn't like this explanation at all. He frowned and inquired, “Huh... my grandson, are you telling the truth, or are these words spoke

Chapter 816 A Hard Truth to Swallow
At Andrade Clinic, Elaine faces Fernando still in the lobby. The man is tired of being reprimanded constantly. Running his hand over his face to calm his nerves, he complained, “You too, Elaine!” “What’s wrong?” Elaine smiled maliciously. “Tired of telling lies and trying to defend yourself in vain?” “How do you know my defense is in vain?” Fernando narrowed his eyes. Elaine headed toward the waiting seats, picking one. “I know you must be desperately trying to ‘prove’ that your attack on Mr. Alvares has nothing to do with your hidden passion for Patty.” “How many times do I have to tell you I am NOT in love with Patty?” Fernando clenched one fist. “That’s a lie made up by Liz’s mind. Remember, it’s because of these paranoias that she couldn’t take it and is now in there fighting for her life.” Elaine lost her smile. “The only fight Liz is involved in is proving how harmful Patty is to society, to men!” “If you keep talking like that, you’ll be next,” Fernando said through grit
Chapter 815 Opportunity to Promote Oneself
Vanda was placing the remaining pots on the stove to heat up dinner. Cindy and Jackson were gathered around. “The maid has already left,” Vanda said as if she were explaining herself. “Mom, I know you still enjoy doing housework,” Jackson replied with a chuckle. “Yeah, but I need to let the maid do something while I focus on my new book,” Vanda admitted, keeping an eye on the stove to make sure nothing burned. “Oh, is a new book coming? Who’s going to handle the book signing?” Cindy commented venomously. Jackson shook his head. “The information we have is that Elaine was fired from Golden Letters.” Cindy smiled maliciously, feeling vindicated. “That’s the least that can be expected. Oh, why did Matt—” Cindy’s phone buzzed with a message notification. She checked her phone anxiously. “It’s Matt. He just sent me what I should officially say in the magazine. I need to forward this to Andreia,” Cindy informed the others, already sharing the message. Vanda sighed in relief. Elain
Chapter 814 Dedicated Husband Role
In the kitchen of Borges House, Jackson and Cindy were enjoying the pot pie that Vanda baked. A large piece was sliced by Jackson while Cindy chose a more modest piece. Now, they were at the table. “I don’t want my dinner appetite ruined,” Cindy commented playfully. “This? Ruining your appetite?” Jackson reacted, pretending to be shocked. “Hey, for someone as big as you, who can handle wearing me out all night long, eating a lot is normal and necessary.” Cindy laughed, lightly nudging Jackson’s shoulder. Jackson pretended the nudge hurt, but laughed along with his beloved. Cindy chewed and swallowed another bite. “Hmm... my mom outdid herself. So, my dear, how was your day?” “My day was great. Besides exercising, I caught some sun by the pool.” Jackson ran his hand under his tank top. Cindy noticed his tanned skin. “That’s really good for your health. When you get better, my dear, we’ll go to the beach. I also need to get some color.” “It’s because you spend too much time in t
Chapter 813 Nathan and His Difficult Mission
As evening fell, Cindy returned home from work, finding Jackson carefully making his way to the kitchen with crutches. “Hey, hey, hey! Wait for someone to help you. Where's Patty? Where are your parents?” Cindy quickly positioned herself next to her boyfriend. Jackson laughed. “Don’t worry, sweetheart. I can manage. I’ve been walking around the house to get some exercise.” Jackson kissed her cheek. “But your parents were around, right?” Cindy felt some tightness in her heart. “Yes, they’re around. And Patty went to Ron’s house. He’s now living in his grandparents’ mansion.” Cindy nodded in approval. “He couldn’t keep living in that penthouse with that toxic and harmful environment.” “Yeah. Ron already had a bit of a mental problem. Now we know where he got it from.” Jackson shook his head. “Speaking of his family, the news of Liz’s stroke — the real one — is being kept under wraps, huh? Nobody at Urbano reported it, nor at LCN, and Ron's grandparents didn’t mention it at the p
Chapter 812 I Need to Change Jobs
With Fernando absent, Matthew and Sheila have the chance to discuss the recent events. Evan entered the office and closed the door. “Alright, Mr. Silva has returned to his company to deal with the problems.” “Thank you for leading him, Evan.” Matthew took a deep breath. “So, mom? His last explanation seemed quite plausible.” Sheila smiled awkwardly. “Yeah, getting your hands dirty for your son. I have to admit, if it were Ron, with how jealous he is, it would be worse.” “But from what they say about Gus Alvares, he seems to be quite muscular, like a comic book hero. More muscular than I am,” Matthew chuckled. “How could Ron defeat him?” Sheila replied somberly, “Matt, sometimes the power of a weapon surpasses that of fists.” Matthew stopped laughing. His mother was right. Evan offered, “Do you want me to look into this matter closely?” Matthew gestured. “I don’t think that’s necessary. What I need now is Fabian Mendes to formalize the divorce. And a press conference just like
Chapter 811 Getting Your Hands Dirty for the Son
Matthew and Sheila try to understand Fernando’s troubled mind as he defends himself excessively regarding what happened at the Silva Oil Company. “Who was working shirtless on the docks? Gus Alvares?” Sheila asked, intrigued. Fernando felt his blood boil as he replied, “Yes, sis! He’s a pervy, using the heat as a flimsy excuse to take off his shirt and flirt in front of Patty just as she was passing by! Come on, guys, do you think it was a mere ‘coincidence’?” Matthew replied glumly, “I bet Gus Alvares swears he’s innocent.” “Of course, he swears he’s innocent, but I figured out his game!” Fernando shouted. Sheila shook her head. “You know what the big problem is, Nando? The next time something like this happens, Patty will hide it instead of telling you, fearing a second tragic episode. If Gus Alvares is scheming, you just made it easier for him.” Fernando was frantic, wanting to pull his hair out. “But... but... how is it POSSIBLE that I made it easier for the creep? On the co
Chapter 810 A Shoulder to Lean On
At the Sterling Empire headquarters, Matthew probes Fernando, trying to extract his intimate thoughts about Patricia. But Fernando is already suspicious.“Matt, I can’t believe you’re joining the chorus of accusers!” Fernando complained.Sheila frowned. “What chorus, big bro?”“They’re all accusing me of being jealous and caring about Patty’s integrity more than my own son!” Fernando paced around the room, burying his hands in his hair.“Uncle Nando, let’s take it easy.” Matthew tried to be rational. “I saw the press conference where Grandpa Leo explained the situation objectively. Now, we need to see the situation emotionally. Don’t you think you’ve overdone it in defending Patricia?”“No. I think this whole thing about the dockworkers revering Patty as the ‘Diva of the Silva Oil Company’ is going way too far. They’re confusing admiration with lust. At least, that’s what Gus Alvares thinks.”“But it’s his father who is bedridden.” Matthew observed coldly.“It wasn’t supposed to be hi
Chapter 809 Who Will Quit?
At Sterling Empire headquarters, Evan was reporting Elaine’s transfer to her new apartment. “Young Matthew, your soon-to-be ex-wife has been settled into her new apartment.” “Thank you, Evan.” Matthew smiled, sitting at his desk. “Your loyalty will be highly rewarded.” “I already feel rewarded, Young Matthew.” Evan chuckled. “Well then, it’s time for you to have more ambitions in your life, isn’t it?” Matthew asked casually. “For instance, don’t you have a girlfriend you distract yourself with when you’re not working?” Just as Evan was about to admit he was seeing someone, the door swung open. Sheila and Fernando walked in with somber expressions. “Mom, Uncle Nando? What happened now?” Matthew stood up abruptly, concerned. “Son, take it easy,” Sheila asked. “It’s nothing too serious.” “But you both look...” Matthew scratched the back of his neck. Fernando took a deep breath before continuing. “Matt, I know you and your Aunt Liz have had some differences, but it’s time to show
Chapter 808 I Don’t Need to Be Afraid
Matthew returned to his office at Sterling Empire headquarters. He was brushing off the shoulders and arms of his suit, still feeling the grains of sand from the beach. “Larry, Larry... you’re acting really strange. I don’t understand why you’re so worried about me; you should focus on my mom... or maybe that’s exactly it.” His phone rang. Matthew grabbed the device and saw it was Clayton. “Hello, Clay?” On the other end, Clayton was still dazed at the Happy Snack Bar. “Hey, Matt. I need to tell you something. Nate quit.” Matthew smiled in relief. “We had another falling out.” “Geez, Matt! I know I’m not aware 10% of the story, but it’s hard to decide whose side to take!” “Come on, take my side, Clay!” Matthew raised his eyebrows. “Should I? I don’t know; sometimes Nate sounds like you’re the enemy.” Clayton sighed. “I just wish you two would get along.” “That’s impossible given the circumstances of our past. Does he still think he can defeat me and take control of the cong
