The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 149 The Sterling Family Will Attack
The next day, Charles Andrade was having breakfast in the dining room of his mansion. He enjoyed the options served, slightly surprised by the fact that today they offered options such as pancakes with raspberries, something that his wife Emmanuelle wouldn’t allow.And there was the fact that his dear wife wasn’t even around to tell him about the excess of sugar or fat.So, like a naughty child, Charles took advantage of everything he could. He missed eating pancakes filled with caramel sauce!But the happiness of the morning feast was about to end...Emmanuelle appeared with a serious face. Charles realized she wasn’t going to scold him for the pancakes.“Honey, what happened? It seems like you want to tell me something.”“Yes, I have something to tell you.” Emmanuelle sighed. She chose a chair and sat down, “I don’t even know how to tell you this.”“Please, honey. If there’s something I need to know, you can tell me.” Charles looked at his plate. “Is that why you ordered this lavish

Matthew and Patricia visited the Borges House. Family members gather in the pool area to chat more comfortably. The morning wind refreshed them.“Hmm... I want to swim in the pool.” Jackson suggested mischievously.“Jackson, stay on topic, please,” Vanda asked him. She didn’t want to see her son taking off his clothes right now.“But the wind is very cool.” Patricia admitted, “Guys, you’ll be getting a visit from a lawyer recommended by Grandpa Abner.”“Thanks again, Matt.” Hélio thanked him.“You’re welcome, Mr. Hélio. Always count on my help.”Vanda took the chance. “Matt, I’m going to give you my first manuscript. I want you to see if I’m worthy of being published.”“Of course, Dona Vanda. In fact, with this repercussion, you’ll become famous faster.” Matthew smiles gently.“How did your family react, Matt?” Jackson asked.“Well, my mother was embarrassed, feeling like she was in the crossfire.” Matthew scratched the back of his head, “She knows that you’re a good guy and don’t des
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 151 Running Away to ‘Work’
At Silva Penthouse, Sheila showed up very early, before Fernando and Ronaldo left, to have a little chat about yesterday’s mess.But the men didn’t want to talk. The business couldn’t stop.“Sister, I’d have the great pleasure of talking to you.” Fernando began with the lame excuse, “But you know that your nephew and I carry important roles at Silva Oil Company. How could we stop to chat now? Couldn’t we talk later?”“I need to talk to you now while you haven’t fabricated lies yet.” Sheila smiled smartly.“We would never lie to you, little sister,” Fernando swore. He tried to gesture, but the hand holding the briefcase didn’t cooperate.Ronaldo scratched the back of his head. “Auntie, I don’t know what you have to do with this. We’ve already talked as a family.”“I had a conversation with the Sterling family and I was quite shocked,” Sheila assured, entering the penthouse.“That’s what you get for living in that mansion, full of people who hate you!” Fernando tries to change the subje

At the Borges House, Fabian said goodbye to everyone.Vanda held out the tray of cream cookies again, “Eat more, Mr. Mendes.”“Thank you, Mrs. Borges.” Fabian chose two more. “I’ll come back more often to try more recipes.”Alice also took some. “Fabian, thank you very much for helping us. What do you think about the case?”“I firmly believe we can reduce the entire case to the assault on Ron Silva,” Fabian responded in the pose of a lawyer. “There is no reason to place Jackson Borges as the only person to blame for the whole mess.”“Thank you, Mr. Lawyer.” Patricia smiled.The intercom rang. Vanda answered again, this time, remembering Alice’s words, “Borges House, good morning?”“Good morning, Mrs. Borges! This is Ron Silva!”Everyone immediately tenses up.Jackson, his face grim, waved at Vanda. “Let him in, Mom.”Fabian hurriedly intervened, “Mr. Borges, I strongly recommend that you don’t exchange words with Mr. Silva at the moment. If he wants to say anything about the case, it’
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 153 The Truth, Even It’s Not Told
Cindy was very calm at Sterling University. She sat at one of the tables in the newly reopened kiosk. Clayton looked at her but avoided greeting her. Who knows if she’s going to start a mess...Cindy started checking her cell phone. The news about the chaos at the Loss family home shocked her.That fuss happened when she was packing her bags and leaving Ricardo’s apartment.David appeared and approached her. “Hello, Cindy! Congratulations on the article... Oops! It wasn’t you again.”Cindy rolled her eyes. “What can I do if Ricardo Montegrande seems to favor his new girlfriend?”David sat next to her. “Hey, aren’t you two dating? I thought that with the breakup of the engagement...”“I still want Matt.” Cindy snapped back.David chuckles. “Cindy, don’t you think it’s time to think better about your situation? The chances of you rekindling any relationship with Matthew Sterling are slim. Not just because Matthew seems to love the waitress, but because of the family he now belongs to.”

Matthew, Charles, and Sergeant Carvalho showed up at the Andrade Clinic after thoroughly studying the medical reports of those hospitalized.Dr. Almeida found them in one of the corridors. “Mr. Andrade, it’s great to meet you. Some patients can now be discharged.”“Take me to them, doctor.” Carvalho ordered, “I need to remind them to report to the police station, especially after the results of some tests.”Dr. Almeida nodded and led the sergeant to the patients who would be released.Matthew asked dismissively, “Will those who have consumed excessive drugs and alcohol voluntarily go to the police station?”“If they don’t go, it will be worse for them.” Charles chuckles.Walter approached them. “Dad, Matt! How was it at the police station?”“We managed to convince the hard-headed sergeant.” Charles replied, “It looks like some patients will be released today. Sergeant Carvalho will ‘remind’ them that they need to go to the police station.”“If they don’t go, they’ll get a subpoena.” W
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 155 Troubles for the Silva Family
At the Andrade Clinic, Dr. Almeida smiled in front of Mr. and Mrs. Andrade. Everyone is in Walter’s office.“Mr. and Mrs. Andrade, good news. Jacqueline is better and she’ll be able to go home tomorrow.”“Oh, thank God!” Emmanuelle started to cry. Charles hugged her.“Take it easy, honey. God has been merciful to us.”“I was scared, darling...” Emmanuelle buried her head in her husband’s strong chest, seeking protection and comfort.Charles looked at the lady doctor. “Thank you very much for your skill, Dr. Almeida. I’m confident that we hired the best professionals for my clinic.”“If I didn’t save your daughter, I might tear up my diploma.” Dr. Almeida made this joke and left, leaving the couple alone.Walter entered the office, passing the doctor who was leaving.“Guys, by the doctor’s smile, something good happened to Jacque, right?”“She’ll be released tomorrow,” Emmanuelle responded, still hugging Charles.“And we need to celebrate among ourselves, without the Silva family invit
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 156 Everyone Has Dirt to Hide
Matthew went to the Sterling Mansion still furious about what he suspected.“How could they do this? Ah, but it won’t end like that!”Jarbas appeared in the hall worried about the screams. “Young Mr. Sterling, what happened?”“Hello, Jarbas, good afternoon. Don’t worry. I’m discovering so many truths today that I can’t bear it.”“This is a shame. But don’t worry. With the lawyer your grandfather recommended...”Matthew had a mental snap. The lawyer!“Thank you, Jarbas. I’ll arrange a raise in your salary plus a 20% bonus next Christmas. Anything else you wanted?” Matthew smiled kindly.“But... But... What did I do, sir?” Jarbas was amazed.“You gave me a good idea to get revenge without getting my hands dirty. And about Jasmine...”Patricia entered the mansion at this time. “Honey, the doormen told me you walked past them snorting like a Spanish bull. What happened?”Matthew smiled calmer. “Don’t worry, my love. Thanks to Jarbas, I came up with a way to get revenge on my evil cousins

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

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
