Andreia sat at her desk with a serious expression on her face, staring at her computer without really paying attention."What are you so worried about, hubby?" she muttered to herself, clicking and typing on the Internet.On her screen, Vicente's channel was trending, with the number of views and subscribers increasing daily.Vicente was currently recording another live stream, wearing a suit and tie, deeply engrossed in playing another Beethoven classic.The 9º Symphony filled the room. The door opened, and Nathan entered, finding his mother with a slight smile, appreciating the music and her husband."Okay, is everything under control now?" he asked."Hi, son," Andreia replied."Mom, do you know what got into Dad?"

Vicente exclaimed."Calm down! I know your son and wife are at work," Karl reassured him."Of course, you know everything that happens in my life!" Vicente replied desperately."Don't be hysterical. You weren't like this when you were fooling my sister," Karl countered.Vicente put the tablet away before he dropped it. "Let's get one thing straight, you idiot: I LOVE ANDREIA!""I never denied that. What I've always questioned is what DROVE you to love Andreia. You could love my sis

In the Sterling Mansion, on the veranda, Abner indulges in a mid-morning snack as Jarbas appears somewhat embarrassed."Jarbas, you're not interrupting my snack. Go ahead and say what you need to," Abner assures him."Sir... Mr. Gouveia is here. Mr. Vicente Gouveia," Jarbas informs him."Well, send him in then," Abner orders him.Moments later, Vicente enters and sits across the table, visibly on edge."My goodness, Vicente! What happened to you?" Abner expresses concern."Some sinister things," Vicente responds cryptically."What do you mean? I watched your Live and thought it was fantastic! I even pressed 'like'," Abner remarks."Thank you, but I'm not concerned about that right now. Abner, I'm aware that my son showed up here yesterday," Vicente starts the subject.Abner pauses chewing. "Yes. The audacity of that brat demanding that I appoint him as president of the conglomerate just because someone who hasn't gotten over a high school grudge wants to get back at me!""Tell me, Abn

Karl inquires."I'm a very busy man, sir..." Edmund jokes."Don't be a clown. My son made the cover of a magazine again," Karl informs him."If you could just brief me..." Edmund requests."Okay, but read it yourself later. My boy is dating a stunning blonde, an employee of Golden Letters," Karl answers him."I heard he was sort of forced to break up with Patty Borges," Edmund comments."I want to know more about this girl," Karl admits."What's your interest in the girl?"

Inside the foyer of the Borges House, the day unfolded with Vanda's post-lunch nap and her subsequent descent down the stairs, preparing to tackle the dishes used for lunch."I still can't get used to having a housekeeper," she remarked to herself, musing over the newfound luxury.Just then, the intercom rang, interrupting her thoughts."Hello?" she answered, approaching the intercom."It's Ron, Vanda," Ronaldo's voice came through."Just a minute!" she replied, releasing the automatic gate to allow Ronaldo in.Moments later, she greeted him at the door with a warm smile. "Ron, good afternoon. How can I help you? Or do I really need to ask?" she teased."No, you don't need to ask," Ronaldo chuckled in response."Patty is in her room," Vanda informed him, giggling."Great. I need to talk to her in the kitchen," Ronaldo said, getting straight to the point.Vanda nodded, agreeing to call her daughter down.

I don't know what to say," Patricia expressed, a hint of surprise in her voice."Yes?" Ronaldo waited for her response."Oh, you clown..." Patricia laughed, playfully pushing him as she pretended to be angry."What do you need to convince yourself that it's a good idea?" Ronaldo inquired, curious about her thoughts."Well, what about Jasmine?" Patricia raised a concern."Jasmine probably won't come back," Ronaldo replied confidently."Huh? How can you be so sure?" Patricia asked, puzzled."She still hasn't shown up at home, right?" Ronaldo pointed out."Yes, but your parents must be worried," Patricia noted, thinking about the situation.Ronaldo looked amazed. "You hit the nail on the head.""Well, it's not hard to guess. Just put yourself in your parents' shoes.

At Gibraltar Club, Alfredo waited anxiously, his eyes scanning the entrance.Finally, Nathan appeared, and Alfredo gestured frantically."Relax, I'm here!"

Moments later, Karl was in his office dealing with takeout containers containing his lunch: Thai food. He didn’t even have the energy to go out to a restaurant after the bitter conversation he had with Matthew. With the phone to his ear, Karl was waiting to be answered. On the other end, at Siren restaurant, Sheila picked up while enjoying her meatballs. “Hello, sweetheart? Are you going to meet me at Siren?” “No, darling, I’m so sorry. I ordered takeout and I’m eating in my office.” Karl made a pitying face. “Hey, did we agree to have lunch together today?” Sheila smiled understandingly. “No, but since you called me at this hour, I thought you were planning to come. Anyway, how can I help you?” “I’m afraid I’ll ruin your appetite.” Karl began. Sheila chuckled. “Their meatballs are delicious today. Nothing you say is going to ruin my experience.” “Not even if I told you that Matt has been lying about the car accident that Nathan and Miss Alvares had?” Karl went straight for th
Chapter 831 Fight in the Apartment
At Golden Letters, Matthew was tapping his stomach while having a tense conversation with Karl. “I think it’s time for us to have lunch. Are you coming with me?” Matthew tried to sound casual. Karl shook his head. “You’re not going to shake this topic off so easily, Matt. I’m waiting for your confirmation as the honorable man you are.” “What do you want me to do, huh? Confirm that I tried to kill Nate just like Uncle Vicente killed my father?” Matthew’s abrupt and angry question made Karl pause and think for a few seconds. He continued, “If you’re so convinced of this, why don’t you investigate and gather evidence of what happened?” “Does it even matter anymore? How much time has passed... no one wanted to believe my mother. Then, she and I disappeared from everyone’s sight. But Uncle Vicente remained free, enjoying the Sterling family money. If Nate weren’t such a misfit, he would be the president of the conglomerate even after I returned to the family. So, I can’t accept that
Chapter 830 You’re Not Psychologically Prepared
Matthew felt strangely confronted by Karl, whom he still thinks is named Lawrence Vieira. Something in the PR made him question internally. “Larry, I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can answer those questions.” Matthew broke the awkward silence. “You can’t or you don’t WANT to answer me?” Karl insisted. “So, is it true?” “If it were true, what would you contest?” Matthew lifted his chin, proud. “Many things.” Karl swallowed hard. “Matt, I know you’re now a powerful man and need to assert your authority in the city. There are many people wanting to see you fall. But ordering a murder... I don’t think that’s the best way to secure your power. It could turn against you!” “If no one finds out...” Matthew insinuated. “Are you psychologically prepared for the consequences of that?” Karl smiled ironically. “Forgive me, Matt, but I don’t believe you are. You’ve always lived in mental peace even while living in the slums. From what your mother told me, you’ve always been a well-behaved youn
Chapter 829 A Different Aura
At the beach house, Vicente and Andreia were now at the table about to start lunch. When Vicente joined them with his plate, Andreia brought up the complicated topic again. “Before we give thanks for the meal, I think we should continue discussing what Nate knows about Bella.” Vicente grimaced. “I don’t want to lose my appetite, dear.” “That’s not funny, Vince.” Andreia insisted. “You still haven’t told Nate that I’m not his biological mother. Don’t you think he’s going to find out sooner or later?” “Only if Paulina opens her mouth.” Vicente continued to grimace. “At most, Bella will think she’s not Ernesto’s daughter.” “And since he’s still recovering at the clinic, she won’t bring it up with him.” Andreia calmed down. “Then we need to send a message—” Vicente interrupted himself. “Hey, what if what Nate meant by ‘I’ll talk to Bella today’ was actually some DNA test?” Andreia alarmed. “Do you think they went to do that?” “If they did, I hope they didn’t go to the clinic, not
Chapter 828 Planning for Revenge
In the kitchen of the beach house, Vicente was preparing for a big revelation to Andreia. “Dear, I might be pregnant, but if I need to know something...” Andreia straightened up in her chair. “It’s better for you to tell me than for me to find out another way.” “I’ll try to be as gentle as possible,” Vicente promised. “Jeez, is the topic that serious?” Andreia raised her eyebrows. “Yes, the topic is very serious.” Vicente took a deep breath. “Nate knows the truth about his sister.” Andreia held her breath. “Are you okay?” Andreia gestured quickly, pointing to the water filter. Vicente swiftly served a glass of water from the filter for his pregnant wife. Andreia, anxious, took the glass with trembling hands and drank slowly, making sure each drop acted as a calming agent. She had heard of women who went into labor very early due to shocking news. Vicente immediately regretted telling the news, but he felt that Nathan suspected something while they were watching the press co
Chapter 827 A Very Short Interview
At the beach house, Vicente was now helping Andreia finish cooking lunch. Andreia, tired from her pregnancy, sat down at the table to rest. “Phew... thanks, dear,” Andreia said, wiping the sweat from her forehead. “I hope I’m not getting in the way of your work on the concert.” “A musician can’t work on an empty stomach,” Vicente joked as he stirred the pot of beans. He leaned in and sniffed the aroma of fresh beans with garlic, salt, and strips of bacon. “Hmm... this is going to be delicious.” “Try it to see if it’s salty enough,” Andreia instructed him. Vicente wasn’t quite sure how to do that. He took the ladle out of the pot and waited for a few drops of the bean broth to drip onto his left palm. But the drops fell scalding hot on Vicente’s hand, making him comically exclaim in pain. “OUCH! It’s hot!” Andreia burst out laughing. “HA, HA, HA... Of course it’s hot, my dear! You just needed a few drops, something quick.” Andreia took the ladle from Vicente’s hand and blew on i
Chapter 826 An Unexpected Meeting
Nathan managed to sneak into Golden Letters, accessing Karl’s office. “I confess I’m curious. What’s all this about?” Nathan closed the door. “Do you have anything planned with Elaine Prates?” Karl, sitting at his desk, asked bluntly with a cold expression. Nathan froze. What a strange and direct question! He chuckled nervously, though he felt uncomfortable. “Wow, heh, he... why is everyone thinking I’m going to team up with Elaine?” “Because everyone who knows you well knows you had a crush on her,” Karl replied coldly. “It was... somewhat obsessive.” “That was in the past. Elaine never paid attention to me and accused me several times of being a crazy pervert. In the end, with all the scandal, I didn’t want to be unjustly arrested, so I left her alone.” “But now... did you watch the press conference?” Karl raised his eyebrows. Nathan smiled maliciously. “Yes, I did. That’s Matthew, my cousin! While I’m being ridiculed in society for being a womanizer, Matt manages to do the

Karl was driving back to Golden Letters, finding Nayla and Kirk discussing Elaine’s legendary dismissal. “What a shame she wasn’t at her apartment,” Nayla said with a sigh of disappointment. “Maybe she’s out and about, avoiding the press conference and the journalists’ questions,” Kirk suggested. “No. If she wanted to avoid being harassed by reporters, she should have stayed locked up in her apartment, isolated from everyone,” Nayla said as she sat down in her chair and turned on her computer. Kirk was about to say something else when Karl approached them. “Hello.” Nayla wasn’t in the mood to be friendly. “Mr. Vieira, do you agree with the injustice that happened here?” “Elaine Prates behaved horribly at Vanda Borges’s book signing just because she rivals our writer’s daughter,” Karl replied pragmatically. “If that’s not grounds for dismissal, then Elaine would be allowed to do something worse. Is that it?” Nayla took a deep breath, gathering her courage. “We know that the main

At Sterling Mansion, Walter and Jacqueline applauded Matthew for the press conference."Wow, congratulations, buddy!" Walter exclaimed jokingly. "You killed it!""I've never seen you so powerful and cold up there," Jacqueline quipped, sitting down."I had to act that way," Matthew replied between chuckles. "The times called for a firmer stance. I'm glad you understood."Walter sat next to his sister. "We understood that you needed to get rid of the crazy lady before someone else got hurt.""Where is she?" Jacqueline asked.Sheila raised her eyebrows. "Why do you want to know, Jacque? It's better if you don't provoke her!"Jacqueline smiled mysteriously. "I just wanted to know... has she been moved to some low-class apartment?"Walter added, "I can't believe she's still living here!"Matthew shook his head. "I would never allow such a thing. Elaine was moved to an apartment in the Constance Building."Karl was taken aback. "She's living in the same building where I live? The same build
