Chapter 1364 Matriarchal Laws
Patricia stormed into the modeling studio just as the shoot was resetting. The director, a woman whose artistic vision seemed entirely driven by her libido, had decided that the most “authentic” way to sell toothpaste was to have Jackson shirtless, clad only in silk boxers, under the pretext that the character had just rolled out of bed.The crew bustled around, adjusting reflectors, everyone silently acknowledging the director’s true motive but saying nothing.It was against this backdrop of artificial morning light and exposed abs that Patricia found her brother, venting her fury about Matthew.“Matt isn’t the father, and he was furious?” Jackson asked, the prop toothbrush hovering near his mouth.“He threw a chair through the window, Jackson!” Patricia’s voice cracked, her hands trembling. “THROUGH. THE. WINDOW! If it hit a pedestrian down there, they’re dead!”“Why would Matt be that upset?” Jackson frowned, lowering the brush.“What do you think, bro? He WANTED to be the father o
Chapter 1363 Shattered Glass and Egos
Matthew stormed into his office, the heavy oak door slamming shut with enough force to rattle the frames on the wall.A blind rage consumed him. He lashed out, his polished shoe connecting violently with the side of his desk. The impact sent a shockwave through the wood, causing his computer monitor to wobble precariously, teetering on the edge of disaster.He turned his fury to the window. He grabbed the cords of the blinds, yanking them down with a guttural growl. One of the slats snapped like a dry twig, surrendering to his grip. But it wasn’t enough.The fire in his chest needed more oxygen.He seized his heavy leather swivel chair, lifting it over his head with a roar.Just as the office door swung open, revealing Sheila, Karl, and Patricia, they froze in horror. They watched in atonishment as Matthew hurled the chair through the closed window.CRASH!The sound of shattering glass exploded through the room, mingling with Patricia’s terrified scream. Shards rained down onto the pa

“Yes! I knew it!” Nathan shouted, his voice cracking with vindication. He pumped a fist in the air, the sheer relief nearly buckling his knees.Beside him, tears streamed freely down Elaine’s face.“Finally,” she whispered, leaning into him. “Finally, the truth.”Maurício watched the display with professional detachment, though a hint of a smirk was visible on his lips.“Well, folks, I hope you can now move on with your lives.” He turned to the third man in the room, holding out a manila folder. “Mr. Sterling, will you be wanting a copy?”“Of course I do,” Matthew snapped, snatching the folder with enough force to wrinkle the paper. “I’m not having certain people coming after me later, claiming the opposite just to demand child support.”Elaine bristled, stepping forward. “That will never happen, Matt! Nate and I are going to get back on our feet, and you won’t stop us!”“You don’t need to explain anything to him, honey,” Nathan said, wrapping an arm around her waist. His voice sounde
Chapter 1361 Irreversible Results
In the kitchen of the Borges House, Jackson leaned against the counter, scrolling through his phone while his sister finished her breakfast.“Sis, do you have some kind of master plan for Linda Alvares?” he asked, glancing up.Patricia swallowed the last bite of her brioche, wiping a stray crumb from her lip. “You ask that as if we were plotting something evil.”“No, I didn’t mean that,” Jackson laughed, turning his screen toward her. “I got a recommendation for her profile on social media. I clicked on it and... well, there are a lot of new, very different photos.”A mischievous smile formed on Patricia’s lips. “I encouraged Linda to update her image.”“Well, it seems to have worked. There are even personal photos of her with Walter at the beach...”“And is that what you’re envious of?” Patricia teased, raising an eyebrow.“No, I’m not envious,” he chuckled, sliding the phone back into his pocket. “But after I heard you asking Cindy to interview her, I wondered if this whole makeover
Chapter 1360 The Moment of Truth
In the master bedroom, Jackson fastened the buttons of his shirt while a cloud of expensive cologne settled around him.“An interview with Linda Alvares?” he mused, checking his reflection. “Interesting.”“Yes, very interesting.” Cindy picked up her phone, her thumb hovering over the screen. “And if you must know, I think I'm going to set that up right now.”“Good luck, kitten.”Cindy smiled, firing off a message.At the Alvares breakfast table, Linda’s phone buzzed next to her plate.“Your phone, honey,” Paulina said around a mouthful of bread.“We bought some gifts for you, Mom,” Linda said, reaching for the device.“Oh, come on, I just went to your grandparents’ house!” Paulina laughed.“But we missed you just the same,” Bella chimed in.Linda’s eyes widened as she read the notification. “It’s Cindy Cardoso! She wants to schedule the interview with me today!”“Go on, daughter, confirm it!” Paulina urged.Linda copied the number and dialed immediately.“Hello, Linda,” Cindy’s voice
Chapter 1359 Reinforcements and Results
In the Alvares household, Linda sat alone at the breakfast table, the silence of the room amplifying the clinking of her spoon against the ceramic mug.She heard the front door open, followed by Bella’s voice, and then... nothing. A heavy, expectant silence filled the hallway.“Bella, who is it?”Two sets of footsteps approached the dining room — one light and familiar, the other carrying a weight and cadence Linda hadn’t heard in weeks. She stiffened, instinctively preparing for another unwanted visitor or a reporter.But when the figure stepped into the archway, Linda’s breath hitched. Standing there, sporting a healthy coastal tan and a smile that reached her eyes, was Paulina.“MOM!” Linda scrambled up, her chair screeching against the floor.“Hello, my baby girl!”They collided in a desperate embrace. Ernesto and Bella appeared in the doorway behind them, watching the reunion.“I asked Bella to keep it quiet,” Ernesto murmured, a soft smile playing on his lips.Paulina pulled bac
