Matthew confidently walks into Golden Letters wearing another formal look.

Yes, they’re new. Interning at Golden Letters pays off.”Nayla looks suspicious. Was this attire due to Golden Letters’ salary? “I know, but something tells me you’ve maxed out your credit card. Be careful, don’t go into too much debt because we don’t know about tomorrow.”“I know. Excuse me, I need to introduce myself to Elaine.” Matthew blinks and walks away.As always, Matthew takes the stairs, leaving the jealous employees uncomfortable.

The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 32 Sheila Relives the Past
Sheila came out of the store's fitting room wearing a white and lace midi dress. Cilene's jaw dropped. At first glance, it didn't seem like Sheila had the body for such a chic and elaborate dress!"The dress looks wonderful on you, Mrs. Silva!"

A little longer, and Karl would appear at her side, praising her and kissing her affectionately on the cheek."I'll take him. I hope my son's credit card has enough limit."

Cindy wants to invite Matthew to a party at her house.“Cindy, it seems like you forgot something.” Patricia responds on Matthew’s behalf, “You’re no longer Matt’s girlfriend. You no longer have to be in close contact with him.”Cindy glares at Patricia, “I know he’s not a boyfriend anymore. I know you two are lovers. But that doesn’t mean we’re no longer friends, right, Matt?”Patricia is horrified. “What’s this talk? Matt and I aren’t lovers!”Cindy dismissively retorts, “I know the truth. David Rocha explained everything to me. While I was feeling guilty about falling in love with Ricardo before breaking up with Matt, you two were—”“Cindy, I already told you that’s not true!” Matthew roars, “And if you prefer to continue to believe the lie, I’d better not accept your invitation.”Cindy realizes what a mistake she is making and shakes her head. “OK, forgive me, Matt!

He’s going to have fun rubbing the fact that he’s Cindy’s current boyfriend in your face. And Cindy won’t miss an opportunity to humiliate Patricia. You don’t even look like you’re Patty’s friend.”“I’m her best friend, so I’m going to make sure nothing happens to her.” Matthew shakes his head, “After class, I’ll get her something interesting.”“How?” Walter is surprised, “Let me handle this.”“No, I have that store’s credit card, have you forgotten?” Matthew gestures to him.“Oh yes...”“By the way, yesterday I bought my mother some cloth

Police Station, afternoon.Karl read the note carefully, his brow furrowed in concentration. The message, scrawled by the so-called “boys” from the Bento family, left little room for doubt.Carvalho stood on the other side of the desk, watching him closely, waiting for a reaction.“So, everything has been resolved,” Karl finally said.Carvalho nodded. “Yes, everything has been resolved. It seems the kidnappers received the worst punishment.”Karl handed the note back to the sergeant, his shoulders relaxing ever so slightly. “So my girlfriend is safe.”“Exactly,” Carvalho confirmed. “You can rest easy, Mr. Vieira. And once again, we thank you for finding the hideout where Mrs. Sterling was being held.”Karl smiled, a rare expression of relief. “I’m grateful as well, to God.”He was about to leave when he noticed Carvalho hesitating, as if there was more on his mind.“Uh... Mr. Vieira, do you have any idea what your girlfriend — or your future stepson — is going to do about Elaine Sterl

Karl, on the other hand, wore a victorious smirk, clearly enjoying her discomfort.“Lawrence, what do I need to do to convince you that what happened at the signing was an accid—”Karl cut her off sharply. “HEY! Don’t even try that excuse! What happened to Jackson may have been an accident, but as for the champagne glasses? Everyone saw the video!”Elaine bristled, her agitation mounting. “You... you don’t understand how bad this looks for my image as Mrs. Sterling!”Karl blinked, incredulous. “Why didn’t you think about that BEFORE acting, creature?”Elaine groaned, rubbing her temples. Sharp pains pulsed around her forehead and eyes, stress manifesting physically.“I don’t know, I DON’T KNOW! I’m going crazy,” she admitted, her v

The door swung open, and Cindy stormed in like a whirlwind.Andreia chuckled. “I thought you’d be more relaxed.”Cindy exhaled sharply. “Oh, my dear, I can’t calm down at all!” She threw up her hands. “Who said only the poor don’t get a minute of peace?”Andreia tilted her head, amused. “I’m all ears.”Cindy’s words faltered as her eyes landed on Andreia’s belly, now quite pronounced beneath her white blouse. The editor-in-chief gently rubbed it, feeling the baby’s kick.Cindy hesitated. “Um... I don’t want to cause a miscarriage.”Andreia smiled reassuringly. “I’m feeling calmer now. That whole mess with Nate and the escort is finally over.”Cindy pulled out a chair and sank into it. “Over for them?”“Believe it or not, I have to give credit to my son,” Andreia admitted. “He understood what was at stake.”Cindy took a deep breath and allowed herself

Patricia arched an eyebrow. Something was definitely wrong.Straightening himself, Ronaldo took out a handkerchief and wiped imaginary sweat from his brow. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, my dear.”Patricia studied him, unimpressed. “Are you losing your memory? Becoming forgetful like your mother?”Ronaldo made a f

At Golden Letters, Karl worked diligently, his eyes scanning the screen while his fingers moved swiftly across the keyboard. The rhythmic tapping was interrupted by the creak of the door opening. Edmund stepped in, a warm smile on his face.“Excuse me?” he said, though the playful tone in his voice made it clear he didn’t expect Karl to object.Karl stopped typing, grinning at his good friend. “You don’t need to ask, buddy!”Edmund entered fully, leaving the door ajar. “So... I heard about your adventure.”Karl’s expression turned serious. “I’m not sure if I’m happy about that.”Edmund chuckled, still smiling. “I didn’t say you should be happy, but it was quite the adventure, huh?”Sighing, Karl got up, rubbing his forehead. “Sheila was horrified.”“I’m sure she was,” Edmund said, his voice carrying a note of understanding. “But I bet it only brought you two closer together, right?”Before Karl could respond, movement at the door caught his attention.Through the narrow opening, Elain

At the Andrade Clinic lobby, Cindy stormed in like a gust of wind, heading straight for Vanda and Hélio. Her expression was fiery, but her future in-laws smiled warmly at her determined entrance. “When it comes to defending my son...” Hélio began, his tone amused. “Absolutely, Seu Hélio!” Cindy interrupted fiercely. “I’ll never let anything bad happen to him if it’s within my power.” “Like now?” Vanda asked, watching Cindy’s exasperation grow. Cindy threw her hands up in frustration. “Why the hell does my Jackson want to talk to the woman who ran him over?” Hélio leaned back, his expression calm. “He feels that he needs to talk to her, Cindy.” Cindy placed a hand on her chin, pondering. “They had a fling in the past,” she muttered. “I sensed she still has about 5% of feelings for him—especially after I slapped her.” Hélio smirked. “Good thing I cleared out the rhododendron bed.” “What do you think we should do, Cindy?” Vanda asked, her voice full of concern. Suddenly, Cindy’s
Chapter 747 Cruising Together
In the abandoned warehouse, Ronaldo Silva grabbed an old, creaky chair and sat down without hesitation, his imposing, muscular frame unbothered by the chair’s fragility.Across from him, Germano lay on a worn mattress, coughing intermittently. He held a small bottle of propolis spray in his hand, which he had been using liberally to soothe his throat. “This stuff is really good,” Germano muttered, his voice hoarse. “So, are you going to set me free or leave me to die here?” Ronaldo’s eyes narrowed, his tone dark. “For someone who’s one foot in the grave, you’re quite the jokester.” Germano smirked faintly. “Young man, I’ve covered wars in the Middle East. I’m an experienced journalist.” Ronaldo leaned forward, his presence commanding. “That’s great. That means you’ll have the wisdom and experience to accept my conditions.” Germano’s smirk faded as he raised an eyebrow. Now things were getting serious. “What conditions?” he asked cautiously. Ronaldo’s voice was steady. “You must
Chapter 746 The New Security Guard
Inside the bustling lobby of Golden Letters, Cindy’s usual confidence faltered. Kirk, looking polished in his uniform, blocked her path. Normally, she might have felt flattered by his firm touch, but her mind was on Jackson, and the gesture only fueled her disgust. Nayla, seated behind the reception desk, smirked maliciously. “Oh, I forgot to tell you that we’re tightening security, Miss Cardoso,” Nayla said with false sweetness. “That’s unacceptable!” Cindy shot back, her voice sharp. “I’m not here to hurt anyone.” “Well, according to you,” Nayla replied, her smirk widening, “it’s Mrs. Sterling who wanted to hurt you. So there’s no reason for you to stick around. I don’t think Mr. Sterling would appreciate another scene.” Cindy’s jaw tightened. “I’m not counting on Matthew for anything anymore! I have another guy to defend me.” Kirk stepped forward, his tone calm but firm. “Miss Cardoso, please. I’ll have to call my superiors if you don’t leave.” Outraged, Cindy’s mouth dropped

In the dimly lit expanse of the abandoned warehouse, the sound of measured, confident steps echoed on the concrete floor. Germano lay on the mattress, his body tense as he strained his ears. The steps were deliberate, the rhythm unmistakable—shoes of fine, expensive leather.Who could it be...? Germano thought, his mind racing.Then the figure appeared. It was Ronaldo Silva.Germano raised his eyebrows, not entirely surprised, but enough to let a faint smirk escape. Ronaldo approached and leaned in, removing the gag from Germano’s mouth.“Well, well,” Germano said with sarcasm. “I should have known they had a hand in this.”Ronaldo’s face betrayed no amusement. “You can leave now,” he said curtly to the men in black suits.The kidnappers bowed slightly and exited the warehouse. Ronaldo turned his icy gaze back to Germano. But Germano was unshaken; he’d seen men like Ronaldo before.“With a thousand demons... what do you think you’re doing, you brat?” Germano growled.“I want to help m
