The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 298 Fall In Love With Her Stud Cousin
At the beach, Jasmine was "helped" up by Cindy."Thank you so much, my friend—"As Jasmine spoke, she absentmindedly looked towards the bathers and with eagle eyes managed to discern Matthew among them.Matthew was wearing a flashy Speedo that, in Jasmine's opinion, would be better for Matthew to just take off and be naked!Seeing that Patricia was still nearby, Jasmine smiled mischievously and wanted to provoke her."Wow! What speedo is Matt wearing? It's barely covering anything!"Cindy and Patricia quickly searched for Matthew until they found him.Matthew was applying sunscreen on Elaine's back. The couple was smiling, probably chatting about pleasant things.Ronaldo conjectures, "While you're fighting, Matthew and Miss Prates are having fun on this sunny Saturday. And I'm not in the mood to waste energy on useless arguments."Jasmine seemed not to have heard her older brother as she continued to provoke, "Wow, it would be better if Matt just took off those Speedos, don't you thin
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 299 Ronaldo Wants to Get Patricia Pregnant?
Matthew and Elaine head to the Sterling Mansion."Elaine, have you ever thought about living with me?" Matthew asks lovingly.Elaine, however, is taken aback. "Matt, I think that was the mistake of the other candidates. They rushed into living a married life before the deed was done."Matthew stands in the hallway, surprised by his girlfriend's answer."Really?"Elaine nods, "Yes. You had the life you wanted with Cindy, then with Patricia, and you were satisfied and settled with it. That's why it was so easy for you to get over the breakup.""Wow, I never thought of it that way," Matthew chuckles, agreeing with the reasoning."That's why I want to do things the old-fashioned way." Elaine smiles gracefully.Alice approaches from the hallway. "Oh, my grandson's girlfriend has arrived!""Madam Sterling, it's a pleasure to see you again.""Elaine, I'm glad you helped my grandson in this difficult time." The two women embrace, "And as a bonus, you have feelings for him.""Absolutely, Madam
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 300 False Promises
Jackson and Cindy met at the same secluded spot on the beach where they used to make love when she was engaged to Matthew.However, since it was still daylight, the spot was not as secluded as before. Beachgoers and families who couldn't find space on the main beach ended up choosing the surroundings.So, Jackson and Cindy had to restrain their carnal impulses and just enjoy each other's company."It's a shame I can't take you home." Jackson laments."Why not?" Cindy asks, being as clueless as ever.Jackson stares at Cindy, incredulous at the clueless question. "Cindy, you still don't know the reason?"Cindy stared at Jackson for a few seconds, genuinely not understanding why she couldn't go to his house.Then, when she remembered the conversation she had with Patricia, she felt ashamed."Oh, dear..."Jackson holds Cindy's face. "When were you going to tell me that you plotted against my dear sister – AGAIN?""Jackson, I can explain!" Cindy despairs.She wanted to distract Jackson, bu
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 301 Revelation Day
Sunday was the big day.The bombshell news published by Marilza Peres explained to all the readers that Patricia Borges was not careless with the items at the charity auction, but rather another victim of Jasmine Silva, with Cindy Cardoso as an accomplice.The testimonies of Theodore Damascene and actor Othon Rios corroborated the news, giving weight and authority to those who had doubts at first.In the online version, the audio of Cindy talking to Bryce caused a stir and buzz on social media, with tons of comments, criticism, and backlash against the villains.The stock prices of Silva Oil Company started to fluctuate because of this...Leonardo and Marta almost went to the cemetery together.They showed up at the penthouse at eight in the morning, waking up a sleepy Fernando who answered them still rubbing his eyes and with his loose boxer shorts, poorly dressed."Put those boxer shorts on properly, son," Marta advised him, "I can see part of your butt.""I had to dress in a hurry
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 302 Refuge in the Mediterranean Mansion
In the Borges House, the family was discussing the matter during breakfast.Jackson was uncomfortable with the situation.Hélio cleared his throat, "Ahem... now we need to discuss how our lives will be from now on. Ronaldo Silva was here and asked for our daughter's hand in a relationship, which Patty accepted.""Congratulations, daughter." Vanda grinned."On the other hand, Jackson, your girlfriend disappointed us once again and we will suffer severe criticism because of her." Hélio looked at his eldest son.Jackson nodded. "Dad, I talked at length with Cindy. She promised that this would be the last time."Patricia looked at her brother in disbelief. "Cindy hates me. She will always see me as a rival because of Matt, even though we're both dating different men.""Well, yesterday she was very desperate and emphatic," Jackson assured.Patricia could only guess how Cindy made this promise: while she was being crushed and pounded by Jackson under some chestnut tree on the beach.She voi
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 303 It's Not Worth Regretting Later
At the Borges House, Patricia received a phone call in her room."Hello, sweetheart?"On the other end, Ronaldo was now wearing casual clothes in his room. "Good morning, Patty. How's your family?""Celebrating like crazy. Cindy showed up here and swore in front of us that she would never be friends with Jasmine again."Ronaldo frowned. "Hmm... I wouldn't trust her so quickly. It seems to me that she decided to let her ex-friend deal with people's criticism alone.""That's exactly what I think." Patricia laughed, "But I won't mention that in front of my family. Everyone is happy, and that's what I want.""She was pretty brave to show up there so quickly, huh?" Ronaldo chuckled sarcastically."Stop it, dear, let her think she's convincing someone." Patricia laughed."Hey, did my sister show up there pretending to be regretful?" Ronaldo asked jokingly."No. I would hardly let her in." Patricia laughed.However, Ronaldo stopped laughing. "Dear... Jasmine disappeared from the penthouse, p

Patricia arrived at the elevator of the Silva Penthouse building at the same time as Sheila."Sheila? What are you doing here?""I think I'm here for the same reason as you, my dear: to try to talk to my family."Patricia pressed the button and smiled lightly.She let Sheila discover for herself that Jasmine was missing.When the two entered, Leonardo and Marta greeted the visitors with mild surprise."Patty! Welcome back—" Marta choked on her words, "Daughter? What are you doing here?""I think we need to have a family conversation about the embarrassment we're going through," Sheila responded seriously."Hello, daughter," Leonardo greeted her distantly."Hi, Dad. Where is my niece?"Patricia suppressed a laugh.Leonardo was filled with rage. "Jasmine is missing. She sensed that today would be the day the article would be published and fled the penthouse.""WHAT? And where did she go? Did anyone call Cindy's house?"Marta made a face of disgust. "We don't have the witch's phone numbe
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 305 Cindy Can't Be Fired
Meanwhile, Matthew was enjoying his Sunday playing on his computer.After days of just thinking about work and problems to solve, he needed to relax!He was glad that Marilza Peres' article was causing the necessary buzz.However, the door to his suite opened and Abner entered smiling."My grandson, are you following the chaos happening on social media?""No, Grandpa. I'm playing online with some friends I have in the favela. They are very grateful for the drainage and sewer treatment works that I helped implement."Abner sat down on the couch. "Well, that's acceptable. You've been working hard this week, putting out fires and resolving conflicts.""Is Alfredo Dantas still whining?""No. He hasn't bothered me since you announced that Elaine Prates is the new Mrs. Sterling." Abner chuckled."Do you think he'll be satisfied or try something different?" Matthew kept his eyes on the monitor.Abner saw the war-themed game. Matthew suddenly started typing repeatedly, making his avatar shoot

Chapter 953 Struggling to Call Him Father
Patricia found Vanda sitting patiently on one of the chairs inside Karl’s office at Golden Letters.She leaned her head into the doorway. “Mom?”Vanda turned to look at her, her face lighting up. “Good afternoon, darling. I’m just waiting for Lawrence to show up.”Smiling, Patricia stepped closer. “Ron had a wonderful idea earlier. I hope you’ll agree with it.”Vanda’s eyes sparkled with curiosity. “I’m already agreeing!”“He wants to take me on a trip to celebrate some things that have finally been resolved in his family. And to avoid... temptation, Cindy and Jackson are coming with us.”Vanda smiled warmly, though her expression turned slightly puzzled as she blinked at her daughter.“I don’t get it,” she said. “You’re going on a romantic trip as a group of four?”Patricia nodded. “Yes. Two couples, each celebrating in their own way.”Vanda cleared her throat delicately, still trying to process the information. “But Jackson and Cindy already have an intimate life, while you and Ron
Chapter 952 One of Them Had Written That Letter
Back at the Sterling Cultural Hall, the office of Edmund Hudson was filled with the quiet aftermath of lunch. Disposable food containers from their takeout meals lay scattered across their desks. Bryce stifled a burp—barely.“Gross, son. Don’t do that,” Edmund grimaced.“What, you wanted me to sing the burp like I was on stage?” Bryce shot back with a grin.Edmund just shook his head and leaned back in his chair, clearly not in the mood.“You mentioned the stage... that reminded me of what Sergeant Carvalho said,” Edmund murmured.“It’s all too insane,” Bryce muttered. “Someone set up an elaborate plan to kill Vicente Gouveia.”“And I hope you’re not seriously thinking it was Matthew or Karl,” Edmund warned.Bryce, ever stubborn, didn’t back down. “It has to be one of them, Dad.”Edmund closed his eyes, clearly needing rest. Realizing he had hit a wall, Bryce stood and exited the room, slamming the door behind him.Out in the hallway, Bryce walked briskly, his brow furrowed. Tiffany a
Chapter 951 Foursome Romantic Trip
Across town at the Borges House, the midday sun streamed into the dining room where Patricia was seated with Cindy and Jackson. She placed her wine glass on the table and leaned forward, eyes bright with anticipation.“Guys, I have a proposal.”“Sounds exciting!” Jackson replied.“Ron and I are thinking of taking a trip. Something to help us decompress after all the stress and drama we’ve dealt with.”Cindy nodded, understanding. “Makes sense. Silva Oil won’t be facing charges, you and Liz Silva made peace, and Liz cut ties with Elaine.”Patricia raised her glass in a one-woman toast. “Amen to that. So, Ron and I want to celebrate — but we don’t want to go alone. For obvious reasons.”Cindy and Jackson exchanged a knowing glance.Jackson, ever the older brother, spoke up. “Sis, under normal circumstances, I’d tell you to wait until after the wedding. But since you’ve already... had your first time, would it really be that terrible to be alone with Ron on a romantic trip?”Patricia’s s
Chapter 950 Facing Nathan – AGAIN!
Nathan returned from his parents' apartment to the beach house, under the midday sun, with a triumphant smile that practically screamed "mission accomplished." As he stepped inside, his voice took on a villainous tone, relishing his recent success.“My father’s letter made quite the impression on the sergeant,” he murmured to himself. “Now it’s just a matter of time before he digs into the case and realizes Lawrence Vieira doesn’t exist... nothing but a fabrication by Karl Sterling.”Making his way into the kitchen, Nathan opened the refrigerator, rummaging through leftovers and pulling out a few pans. He set them on the stove, beginning to reheat his lunch while continuing his monologue with the flair of someone who thought ten moves ahead.“And even if they dig into the past or someone brings up the car crash, no one can prove anything. It'll be the word of a man who used a fake identity... versus a famous pianist whose life was nearly cut short.”The soft hiss of reheating food fil
Chapter 949 You Really Want to Help
Around midday, inside the police station, Sergeant Carvalho leaned forward in his chair, intrigued by the theory Matthew had just put forth about the incident at Vicente’s live concert. The near-tragic “accident” that had almost claimed a life now seemed more calculated than coincidental.“I hadn’t thought about it like that,” Carvalho admitted. “I mean, I knew you and Mr. Hudson saw the two workers, but... a test?”“Exactly!” Matthew said, visibly energized. “It can’t be coincidence that the accident played out the same way as the earlier incident. And there’s more — I clearly remember commenting to Bryce about the piano’s position.”Carvalho began clicking and typing quickly on his computer, searching through digital statements.“Young Mr. Hudson didn’t mention that,” he muttered. “Looks like I’ll have to pay him another visit.”Matthew didn’t hesitate. “Have you or any of your officers found anything on ‘José Ramos’ or ‘Seb Nozes’?”With a serious expression, Carvalho shook his hea
Chapter 948 Matthew Has a Theory
Back to the living room of Karl’s apartment, Karl and Sheila stood by the window, each with a glass of cognac in hand, trying to soothe their frayed nerves.“I just came from the Gibraltar Club,” Sheila said, her tone weary. “I was killing time. Had I known I’d need a drink, I’d have dragged you along.”Karl offered a dry chuckle. “Things are rough, darling. At least Matt is putting his resentment on hold to focus on what matters.”Sheila rolled her eyes and took another sip. “I want to see you two hug like father and son.”“That’ll have to wait,” Karl replied. “Sgt. Carvalho called me in to confirm my secret identity. Apparently, the police received an anonymous letter.”Sheila gasped, nearly spilling her drink. “What? An anonymous letter?”“I know,” Karl said with a smirk. “Feels very 90s, doesn’t it?”
Chapter 947 Carvalho Keeps Inquiring
On a tense morning inside the Sterling Empire headquarters, Matthew’s office had become a whirlwind of nervous energy. Evan reentered the room and paused, hardly recognizing his boss, who was frantically rummaging through drawers and documents on his desk.“Need any help, Young Matthew?” Evan asked cautiously, unsure whether to assist or flee.Matthew looked up, his expression sharp. “Evan, schedule an urgent meeting with the board of directors for tomorrow.”Evan nearly cursed under his breath. He had just spent considerable time reorganizing Matthew’s agenda!“For tomorrow?” he asked, struggling to remain composed.“Yes,” Matthew confirmed. “We’re going to discuss the revelation of my father’s true identity.”Evan stiffened, reaching for his tablet to make the changes. “For the board?”“Correct,” Matthew replied, his tone clip

At the Sterling Empire headquarters, Evan stood dutifully before Matthew and Karl, awaiting instructions.“Cancel all my appointments for this morning,” Matthew ordered, his voice sharp and unwavering.Evan blinked, clearly confused but too loyal to question. “Yes, Young Matthew.”“If I’m free tomorrow, reschedule them into the available slots. And no phone calls until my father leaves the building.”With a respectful nod to Karl, Evan exited the office.Matthew turned to Karl, his voice tinged with irritation. “Okay, ‘Dad’. Tell me exactly what’s going on.”Karl flinched at the sarcasm. “I hate when you call me that like it’s a joke, son.”“What do you expect, Larry?” Matthew shot back bitterly.“I expect us to behave like father and son. I’m telling you, the enemy is attacking from the outside, a
Chapter 945 Did You Forget How to Raise a Baby?
On a gloomy morning at the Sterling Empire Headquarters, Evan stood near the entrance of Matthew’s office, clearly uneasy. Karl noticed the hesitation.“What’s wrong, Evan?” he asked, picking up on the man’s discomfort.Evan fidgeted, trying to sound neutral. “Mr. Sterling... are you planning to reclaim your position as president today?”Karl shook his head slightly. “I haven’t made myself public yet. Neither to the shareholders nor the board.”“Well,” Evan began delicately, “earlier this morning, Young Matthew didn’t seem very willing to talk about it.”Karl swallowed hard. He didn’t back down. “What’s that supposed to mean?”“I think he doesn’t want to give up the presidency. Not after everything he’s been through.”Karl’s voice sharpened. “He should never have gone through al
