Among the audience, the Sterling and Silva families watched Matthew with emotion.Liz and Fernando couldn't help but glance at an empty seat that should have been occupied by Jasmine.Matthew stepped up to the podium, exuding confidence. "Ladies and gentlemen," he began. "Well, I need no introduction. I entered this educational institution as a mere scholarship holder, and now I, leave here with my head held high, with excellent grades and a bright future ahead of me. But I don't just want to brag. I want people who watch me, and who have a dream, to feel confident in pursuing their goals. Believe in your potential. And if pursuing a degree is your drea
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 310 Late Feeling
The party continued in full swing. Patricia, having recovered her composure, approached Ronaldo with a playful smile."Hey, let's not announce our relationship at this party, okay?" she said.Ronaldo nodded in agreement. "Let's not repeat the same mistake. I want our relationship to progress to marriage this time.""Oh, how romantic..." Patricia replied with her voice tinged with affection.Ronaldo, ever the gentleman, placed both hands on Patricia's face and kissed her.Meanwhile, Fernando, watching from a distance, glanced at Matthew to see if he would react with jealousy.From Fernando's point of view, Matthew and Elaine continued their affectionate conversation, completely oblivious to Patricia and Ronaldo.Liz approached her husband and noticed his keen observation. "Hey, are you spying on our nephew?" she asked."I needed to know if he's still going to cause trouble. It's my son's turn to be happy with Patty," Fernando said, his tone serious.Liz smiled softly. "Look, husband, I
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 311 Who's the Grumpy Man?
It's evening. As the party wound down and guests began to leave the Sterling Mansion, Walter and Matthew shared a fraternal embrace in the foyer."Finally, it's over, buddy," Walter said. "Let's focus on our businesses from now on."Matthew smiled. "Have you inherited yours already?""No, but we'll continue to prepare for that day!" Walter replied jokingly.The embrace ended as the Andrade family approached, ready to leave."Matt, congratulations once again," Charles said. "The graduation speech was very inspiring."Emmanuelle added, "I'm sure the audience on the LCN channel must have gone through the roof."Jacqueline, still reeling from the news that Matthew was dating Elaine, found it difficult to speak.Walter gave her a pleading look, silently urging her to say something."Good luck in your professional life, Matt," Jacqueline said defensively."Thank you, Jacque. And remember what I told you," Matthew responded kindly.Unable to handle the situation any longer, Jacqueline left a
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 312 Revealing the Plan to Abner
Abner answered the door wearing a white robe, clearly ready for bed."Oh, grandpa... you were about to go to bed," Matthew remarked."Are you asking or stating?" Abner replied."Both," Matthew said with a grin."If you need to tell me something, tell me," Abner said playfully, stepping aside to let Matthew in.Matthew entered the room, his expression serious. "I need to tell you something. Alfredo Dantas seems to be persistent in trying to replace me as president."Abner was shocked. "HUH? Doesn't he know you graduated today? I told all the board members about it!""It seems he refuses to accept reality. I received this photo from Clayton, taken at the Happy Snack Bar," Matthew said nonchalantly, handing his phone to Abner."Wasn't Clayton working at the university kiosk?" Abner asked, scrutinizing the photo."He probably showed up at the snack bar to see how things are going," Matthew suggested.Abner's expression hardened as he recognized Nathan chatting animatedly with Alfredo."I

The morning at the Gouveia family's beach house was marked by an uneasy breakfast.The air was thick with tension as Andrea and Vicente exchanged suspicious glances directed at Nathan."Where were you last night? Night swimming?" Vicente inquired with his tone tinged with suspicion.Nathan made a sly grin, taking deliberate bites of his ham and cheese sandwich to annoy his father. "I was just grabbing a snack," he replied, swallowing with a hint of insolence.Andrea chimed in, "With whom?"Nathan maintained his mocking smile as he replied, "With some friends," further fueling his parents' skepticism.Vicente's frustration was palpable. "Are you trying to tear this family apart?"But Nathan remained defiant. "I'm not the one hiding secrets and making shady deals," he retorted, his words dripping with disdain.Andrea, visibly offended, shot back, "Oh! So now you're using that against us?"Nathan's response was blunt. "Just a heads-up, I could if I wanted to."Vicente's patience wore th
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 314 Cards on the Table
Matthew, dressed formally with a tie, was about to start his day in Abner's office. Abner sat at his desk, looking determined."Grandpa, are you sure you can handle this alone?" Matthew asked, concern in his voice."It will be worth the last effort, until you fully take over my throne," Abner replied with a reassuring smile."Good. I need to go to Golden Letters. Now, that's my place every morning," Matthew said, preparing to leave."For now, for now..." Abner said, smiling.Just then, Evan opened the door and stuck his head into the office."He has arrived," Evan announced."I'm expecting him," Abner replied."Good luck, grandpa," Matthew said, hugging his grandfather before leaving.As he turned to go, he added to Evan, "Take care of him. Is your gun loaded?"Evan patted his suit, indicating the hidden holster. Matthew smiled, satisfied, and left the office.******Nathan approached the hallway with a confident smile, which faded when he saw Matthew coming from the opposite directio
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 315 A Morning at the Beach House
Andreia, dressed in a green suit for work, paced the living room of their beach house, her face etched with worry. Vicente, wearing only red shorts, prepared for a swim."I'm extremely worried, darling!" Andreia exclaimed."Who was that old man you showed me, and what does he plan to do with our son?" Vicente asked, concern growing in his voice.Andreia's irritation was displayed all over her face. "He is an annoying old man who was in love with Mom and blames my Dad for 'stealing' her from him. As if such a thing could be true. My mother was the beauty of the school and my father was the captain of the football team: how could anyone dare to separate that perfect couple?""The imbecile thought he could, huh?" Vicente joked."And now he is using that grudge to get back at my father, interfering with his decisions at the board," Andreia continued.Vicente's anger flared. "And what's worse: using my son as a tool for revenge! No wonder Nate is so confident in defeating Matt!""I hope Ma
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 316 Your Father Will Always Help
At Urbano Magazine, Andreia decided to go into her son's office to check on him."Son, tell me exactly what happened. Do you still have your job?" Andreia closed the door as she asked anxiously."Geez, Mom, thank you so much for the trust you have in me!" Nathan scoffed."Oh, get out, son!" Andreia's maternal anxiety faded in seconds as she saw Nathan didn't deserve it, "Here I was, almost having a nervous breakdown, so worried for you, and you reacted as if being fired was NOT possible!""I just try to be more optimistic." Nathan sat in his swivel chair.Andreia asked sarcastically, "So your grandfather was fine with you being manipulated and made into a puppet by his enemy?"Nathan frowned, disrespecting his mother, "No. He will always prefer the clumsy Matt. I'll never understand why, so I need to win by other means.""Fraudulent and deceitful means, right?" Andreia crossed her arms."Where is the fraud?" Nathan retorted cynically, "Alfredo Dantas is a member of the board, correct?

Chapter 728 More Problems Keep Coming
Inside the Sterling Empire Headquarters, in Sheila’s office, Matthew stood before Karl, who appeared to be on the verge of saying something. Sheila, sensing unease from her boyfriend, watched him closely.“Do you want me to leave, dear?” Sheila asked gently.Karl chuckled lightly, trying to dismiss the tension. “No, no need... it’s not something urgent or secret.” He turned to Matthew. “Matt, it seems like you need some fatherly advice.”Karl, without revealing the truth, identified himself as Matthew’s father. Neither Matthew nor Sheila caught on, both simply smiling.“Any advice is welcome, Lawrence. Besides, you’re basically my stepfather,” Matthew replied.Karl flashed a yellowy smile. “Okay... Well, it seems like Elaine is feeling jealous.”“I didn’t do anything this time. I’ve barely talked to Patty. Ronaldo assured me everything’s fine,” Matthew replied, looking puzzled.Sheila added, “Even Cindy has moved on with her life. Why did Elaine decide to act this way now?”Karl grew

This pantsuit was expensive,” she complained.Cindy smirked. “Matt doesn’t buy anything cheap, does he?”Elaine seized the moment, a glint of defiance in her eyes. “Is that what this is about? You want to ruin my image in front of Matt so he’ll divorce me? Well, my dear, forget it — that won’t happen.”Cindy’s demeanor turned serious. “If Matt divorces you, it’ll be his decision. I don’t love him, and I don’t want him back. I’ve had the privilege of being with him twice.”Elaine sneered. “And you ruined it both times, having l

Don’t catch a cold.”Elaine, caught off guard, muttered without thinking, “How is a big guy like Jackson going to catch—”Her words faltered as Cindy’s glare cut through her like a blade.Jackson chuckled, playing along with Cindy’s jab as he exaggeratedly rubbed his muscular arms and pretended to shiver. After this, he walked away.Elaine’s eyes lingered on him for a moment too long, her thoughts betraying her as she imagined the life she might have had if she had chosen Jackson over Matthew.But that ship h

A nervous tension filled the room as Liz hesitated, glancing at the door as if plotting her escape.“Well,” she began, trying to muster some confidence, “since I couldn’t say what I wanted to—”Before she could finish, Karl reached out and grabbed her arm, halting her retreat. Liz froze, her eyes widening in horror.“For the love of Christ, will you let go of my arm?” she demanded, her voice trembling.Karl’s gaze darkened, a mischievous smirk surging on his lips. “Why would I do such a thing?” he asked cryptically.Liz struggled, tugging at her arm. “Because I can scream and shout that you’re a creep!”Karl chuckled, his amusement growing as he watched her panic. “This is what you like, huh? Always the Drama Queen.”Liz’s patience snapped. “Mr. Lawrence Vieira, if you don’t let go in five seconds, I will—”Before she could finish her threat, Karl abruptly released her.

At Silva Oil Company, Gustavo was handing over a conference report on the containers and barrels of crude oil that had been unloaded on a clipboard to Ronaldo. “Thank you, Gus.” “You’re welcome.” Gustavo couldn’t hold back. “So, Kirk Camargo is going to work at Golden Letters?” “That’s right.” Ronaldo kept his eyes on the clipboard, checking the numbers. “I was going to ask ‘who did he sleep with to get a spot there,’ but the answer would have to be Mrs. Elaine Sterling.” Ronaldo slammed the clipboard on his desk and stared fiercely at Gustavo. “I won’t allow that peon talk around here!” “HEY, no class prejudice, oh noble Mr. Silva!” Gustavo retorted mockingly. “Gus, why are you so bitter about Kirk leaving here? I thought my father explained the reason to you.” Ronaldo kept a frown. “I got it: he wants to keep us safe.

Liz shook her head. “How do you manage it?” “Manage what?” “To make love to me while thinking I’m Patricia?” “SHHH!” Fernando gestured furiously, horrified. Liz smiled disdainfully. “Are you scared because I revealed your dark and disgusting secret?” “Dark and disgusting is your mind, your imagination!” Fernando replied through clenched teeth. “Huh? I can’t hear you.” Liz mocked. “You’re going to get yourself into serious trouble, Liz.” Fernando began to eat hurriedly. “Who’s going to get the whole family into trouble is you, nurturing forbidden desires for your son’s fiancée.” Liz commented casually, not caring if other patrons might be listening. “How do you expect me not to hate Patricia for

Come hear the big news!”Gustavo approached with disbelief in his eyes. “Are you going to keep working here?”“Your dream has come true!” Kirk exclaimed so loudly that even those who weren’t close could hear. “I’m going to work somewhere else!”The phrase made a few heads turn toward Gustavo. What? He was hoping Kirk would get fired?Gustavo noticed that those who turned to him did not have friendly expressions.“Hey, take it easy!
