The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 38 A True Sterling
In Cindy’s bed, Matthew tells her his true identity.Matthew takes a deep breath, waits a few seconds, and says in a solemn voice, “Cindy... I’m rich. I’m Matthew Sterling, the grandson of the owner of the university where we study.”Cindy struggles to get up and lean against the headboard, covering herself with the blankets. Her gaze expresses surprise and shock.After a few seconds, Matthew is surprised when Cindy suddenly BREAKS OUT LAUGHING.“HA, HA, HA, HA! Matthew... YOU ARE HILARIOUS!”Matthew gets angry. If Cindy doesn’t believe him when he tells the truth, will she believe his lies?Disappointed, he gets out from under the blankets and gets out of bed, crouching down to look for his pieces of clothing. “OK, if you don’t believe me, forget it!”Cindy wipes away tears of laughter. From where she is standing, she has a great view of Matthew’s butt as he squats. “OK, Matt, I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to offend you.”Matthew still can’t find his clothes, “You offend me when you don’t
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 39 Dating For Protection
Cindy is surprised by a completely unknown man standing at the entrance to her kitchen.“Hey, who are you and how did you get into my house?”The man, around forty years old, starting to go bald and with a beer belly, approaches her three steps. When he smiles, he displays yellowed teeth, “Take it easy. Cooperate with us, and you won’t come to any harm.”“This is a robbery?” Cindy’s eyes widen.“No. This is a warning.” The man responds, becoming serious, “Actually, we want to talk to your boyfriend.”“He is not here.” In her eagerness to defend Matthew, Cindy purposely identifies Ricardo as her boyfriend, “Ricardo Montegrande is a great journalist and goes to work early, like any responsible and hard-working man.”“Yes, I see how responsible he is!” The man puts his hand on the quartz countertop only to get leftover blackberry pie on it, “Urgh, was there a party or an animal rumpus here?”“How did you know about the party and how did you know my address?” Cindy screams in terror, “Who
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 40 Ricardo Was Dumped But Still Doesn’t Know It
At Sterling Mansion, Evan is walking through the halls until he is approached by Matthew. He returned from his internship at Golden Letters.“Hello, Mr. Sterling. Can I help you with something?”“Evan, can you get me a reservation at the Siren restaurant? I invited Cindy Cardoso, but now I’m thinking that I shouldn’t use my last name so she doesn’t get suspicious.”Evan is surprised, “Why don’t you want to use your last name?”“That’s because I still want to keep it a secret.” Matthew scratches the back of his head, “Actually, I told Cindy the truth and she didn’t believe me.”Evan laughs, “She’s going to regret laughing at you. But yes, I’ll get you a reservation. You can ask me for that and more, Mr. Sterling.”“Well, you’re my grandfather’s secretary, so...”“Perhaps you should find yourself a secretary.” Evan suggests and walks away.Matthew goes to his room thinking about this possibility.Sheila approaches Evan as he passes into the living room. “Evan, is my son home from work y
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 41 The Truth That Sets You Free
Saturday dawned in Green Coral, with the sun’s rays reflecting on Cindy’s bedroom window.The rays fell on the most controversial couple of the moment. In bed, they only had the blanket to cover their bodies that until moments ago were given over to lust and passion.But someone decided that the man in the relationship would have no rest. His cell phone rang insistently, making him groan and scratch his eyes sleepily.“Who will be... Oh, boy... HELLO?”“Good morning, sleepyhead!” Walter was sitting on the bed in his bedroom, “Finally, huh? Where have you been and where are you now?”“Wait a minute...” Matthew yawns, “I thought I saw ‘Walt’ on the caller ID, not ‘Mom’.”“I’m worried about you and your mother.” Walter isn’t one for jokes, “I stopped by your house and there was no one living there. The mailbox is full of letters and bills to pay. And Patty said I’m helping you live in a hotel while your mother recovers from the allergic crisis she had!”Matthew’s sleep was gone. He leans
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 42 Matthew Visits Headquarters
On Blue Cove beach, Walter is digesting the news that his best friend was never truly poor, but rather filthy rich.He can’t hold back any longer and hugs Matthew tightly, “MATT! That’s wonderful!”“Yeah, I know!” Matthew feels relief in his chest when he confesses the truth to someone.“I should have suspected.” Walter breaks the hug.“How would you guess?” Matthew shakes his head, “Until a while ago, I didn’t know either.”“No, you left several signs.” Walter begins to list them, “Your new cell phone, your new clothes, the very expensive dress you paid for Patricia, your disappearance from the favela... None of this was just money from the Golden Letters internship.”“OK, I admit, it wasn’t. But people despise me so much that it never occurred to them that I could improve my life.” Matthew laments.“But I always believed in you, buddy.” Walter pats his shoulder, “And now I’m very happy. Where are you living?”“At Sterling Mansion. We’re almost neighbors, man.”Walter can’t stop laug
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 43 The Meeting Is Scheduled
Matthew is angry to discover that Ricardo took revenge on Cindy in the worst way possible.“Cindy, I told you he was holding you back because of the internship. But don’t worry, we’ll work it out.”Cindy, at her house, sits on the couch in the living room, “And how are we going to solve this?”“Trust me.” Matthew smiles confidently.“From here, I can see your smile.” Cindy hilariously comments, “But I can’t understand how you’re going to convince LCN to keep my internship without Ricardo Montegrande interfering in the matter.”“Trust me, darling.” Matthew insists in a candid voice.Cindy has a feeling of security running through her body. “OK, I trust you. I called you just to lament about it. I didn’t know the solution was in your hands.”“What would be the point of me being your boyfriend if I couldn’t help you? That loser grill cook you once knew doesn’t exist anymore, darling. I need to go now.” Matthew blows kisses on his cell phone and ends the call.Abner remains next to his gr
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 44 Dumb Cindy Doesn’t Put 2 + 2 Together
Cindy finally decides to return to civilized mode and asks the visitor who he is.“Ehr... Excuse me, sir, but do I know you?”“Oh, sorry... No, you don’t know me, but you must know my sister who is in there.”Cindy is torn between pleasure and disgust. Is this hot hunk her rival’s brother?Patricia seems to have recognized the voice, as it appeared in the foyer. “JACKSON! What the hell are you doing here?”“Hi, sis. I needed to know if you were going to be okay. Sorry, but I followed you.” Jackson speaks in a brotherly, protective tone.Cindy licks her lips when she feels Jackson’s loving and protective aura.Patricia, on the other hand, doesn’t seem to appreciate her brother. “You didn’t have to do that. I’m fine.”“I didn’t think so. I heard shouting and insults outside. I decided to go in to stop you girls from ending up fighting.”“Thank you very much for your concern, sir...?” Cindy holds out her hand.“Jackson Borges.” Jackson greets the owner of the house with a kind smile.“Mr

Sunday. Vicente, Andreia, and Nathan get together for the big lunch at the Sterling Mansion.They are received respectfully by Jarbas in the foyer.“Good morning, Gouveia family. Good morning, Miss Sterling.”Nathan is disgusted, “Why are you calling my mother by her maiden name, you worthless butler?”Jarbas faces Nathan as an equal, “It’s to always remind her of where she came from. Follow me to the living room.”Vicente glares at Andreia and she lowers her head. The three go to the living room.There, as they sit on the sofas, Vicente begins to neigh as soon as Jarbas leaves.“Honey, didn’t I tell you yesterday about these people looking down on me? Here, you’re not Mrs. Gouveia, you are forever an extension of the Sterling family!”Andreia tries to dodge the bullets, “You don’t complain when our son is constantly called ‘Nathan Sterling’ by the media and social media.”“But with our son it’s different.” Vicente states, “He needs to be recognized by the surname of the conglomerate

At Silva Oil Company, Kirk appeared in Leonardo’s office. Fernando and Marta had already left. “KIRK!” Leonardo abruptly stood up from his desk. “How are you, my young man!” “Mr. Silva?” Kirk was surprised by such reverence. “I didn’t know you cared so much about me...” “Cut the small talk! You just had a seizure and looked like you were going to die in my company,” Leonardo gestured for the employee to sit down. “Now I want to know all the details. Don’t hide anything from this curious old man.” Kirk smiled and sat down. “Well, sir, there’s not much to tell. I was stupid enough to fall for the siren’s song.” “In this case, the cocaine song, right?” Leonardo leaned forward. “What do you intend to do from here on out?” “Obviously, I promised myself and my family that I wouldn’t use that cr*p anymore. It wasn’t worth all the drama and suffering,” Kirk replied honestly. “That’s good. Then you can continue from where you left off,” Leonardo smiled, relieved. “That’s about what I w

Chapter 715 Cindy Got the Proof
In Urbano Magazine, Cindy returned with the printed sheet, extending it to Andreia. “Read this not-so-pretentious article, my friend,” Cindy declared. Andreia took the paper and read it. A smile formed at the right corner of her mouth. “Cool... nothing so blatantly accusatory, but clear enough for any semi-literate person to understand that Elaine knocked over that pyramid of champagne glasses, causing a scene at the book signing.” “Of course, I won’t say she did it because the honored author was her enemy’s mother,” Cindy replied mischievously. “You don’t want to risk Matt’s wrath.” Andreia stood up, a bit slowly due to her pregnancy. “Speaking of which, how did he react after your dad’s video?” “I didn’t bring it up with him,” Cindy shook her head. “If I mention it, people will say I still love him.” “And you don’t want to do anything to ruin your relationship with Jackson,” Andreia repeated. “Cindy, it’s commendable that you’re more committed and focused on having someone in

Chapter 714 He Couldn’t Get Over Patricia
Fernando appeared in the kitchen wearing gray sweatpants. Liz, who was sour and bitter, smiled pathetically with her gaze fixed on her husband’s pants. “Good morning, son. What’s new?” Ronaldo replied rudely, “The news is seeing my mother still able to walk!” “RON!” Liz was startled. Fernando shook his head. “Son, don’t be disrespectful. Your mother and I are trying to be as discreet as possible.” Ronaldo shot back, “Just missing discretion when discussing my fiancée, huh? Can we talk about that now?” Liz pursed her lips. “I was so happy when I woke up, but you made sure to ruin my day.” “Mom, we can’t avoid the obvious!” Ronaldo turned to Fernando. “Matt told me that Elaine was reprimanded.” “And I will never agree to that!” Liz shouted. “Elaine was a victim of that tough girl from the slums! She could have died from a cut to her jugular!” “But Elaine provoked Patty’s wrath by saying those nasty things,” Fernando reasoned as he served himself breakfast. “Couldn’t Patricia a

Chapter 713 Crazy People Don’t Deserve to Be Happy
Silva Penthouse, Monday morning. Ronaldo was walking down the hallway to the kitchen in just his boxer shorts when the suite door opened. Liz was smiling a little too much, looking like she was about to dance ballet. “Mom! Long time no see!” “Yes, son, I had a wonderful time with your father!” Liz replied suggestively. Ronaldo blushed to the roots of his hair. “Is breakfast ready?” she asked casually. “I was about to check,” Ronaldo said, heading to the kitchen. There, the coffee maker was already brewing coffee. “Nando must have prepared it in advance.” Liz took bread and butter from the fridge. Ronaldo, cautious, sat down at the table. He noticed a tear in Liz’s nightgown. “Mom, did you and Dad make up this Sunday?” “We can say he’s no longer in love with your fiancée,” Liz replied with a mischievous smile. “Mom, stop talking about that disgusting stuff!” Ronaldo frowned. “This is all your sick imagination.” Liz simply shrugged, sitting down at the table as well. “You’r

Chapter 712 Job Application for an Outcast
Elaine arrived stumbling with fear and bewilderment. The truth about Bella and Nathan’s relationship was something horrifying and incredible for her to digest. “Oh my God... how did these two families let this issue intertwine like this?” Nayla was at the reception desk, smiling, waiting for Elaine to approach. But when she realized Elaine was going to walk past her, Nayla called out loudly, “ELAINE?” Elaine stopped suddenly and looked at her friend. “Oh, Nayla, I’m sorry...” “Don’t worry. I know you must be going through a lot of pressure.” Nayla stood up. “I really am. But I always have time for my friends.” Elaine smiled and approached, trying to distract her mind. “I wanted to know if there are any openings here at Golden Letters for my brother.” Nayla asked respectfully. Elaine’s smile vanished with the wind. As Nayla’s boss, she knew who the brother was. “Nayla, we’re friends, but you know I have a strong opinion against drug use and sales.” Elaine replied in a boss t

Chapter 711 New Guidelines
At Andrade Clinic, Charles was leading a meeting with the receptionists and security guards. Walter and Emmanuelle were present. “So, everyone, the next time Liz Silva or anyone else causes a scene at the clinic entrance, security or even the police must be called in immediately. Don’t hesitate just because the troublemaker is someone from an important family. This is a hospital clinic, not a zoo, so I demand order in the lobby. A disturbance can jeopardize the patients who are waiting for care, and I don’t want to compromise anyone’s safety, understood?” “Yes, Mr. Andrade!” everyone responded in unison. “Okay, everyone can return to your posts.” The staff went back to work. Linda gave Walter a brief kiss before leaving. “Linda, I need to ask you a quick question,” Emmanuelle called her back. Linda paused, closing the door after the last person left. “Did you check with your parents if it’s safe to go home?” “No, Emmanuelle. The conversation with Gus was so good that I forgot

Chapter 710 Discovering Truths
In Matthew’s suite, he was now buttoning the cuffs of his genuine cotton dress shirt. Elaine had also gotten out of the bathtub, unable to continue relaxing, and was now putting on her work suit.The memory of the Golden Letters prompted Matthew to strike up a conversation. “Did you remove a glass from the base of the pyramid?” Elaine stared at Matthew as if he were the devil. “What? How can you throw a question like that out of nowhere?” “I just asked a question, woman, answer me.” Elaine shook her head as she walked to the sofa to put on her high heels. “This is inconceivable. Your mind is always revolving around Patricia’s issues. You never forget her, and then tell me I don’t need to worry.” “Was the champagne glass pyramid made for an occasion involving Patricia?” Matthew countered logically. “No, but it was her mother’s book signing.” Elaine angrily slipped on her shoes. “Well, I remembered that many claimed the embarrassment happened because someone removed a glass from

Chapter 709 Peace is Returning
Monday. Elaine was relaxing in the bathtub of her husband’s suite. Matthew stepped out of the shower stall, drying his hair with a white towel as he walked to the double sink. The sight of Matthew’s exposed body startled Elaine for a few seconds, but then she took advantage of the beautiful view, smiling mischievously. “It hardly feels like it’s Monday,” she commented casually. Matthew was washing his face as he said, “Yes, it’s Monday, the day to take care of important things after we relax our nerves on Sunday.” Elaine pursed her lips and retorted, “If I relaxed my nerves, it’s because they were in shambles. It’s not like me to live in constant stress, darling. I might not get the chance to calm down in the future.” Matthew turned off the faucet and grabbed a face towel. “Are you saying you would be willing to reduce your contact with Aunt Liz?” Elaine could no longer relax. “What does that mean?” Matthew tossed the towel onto the sink and turned to his wife. “I don’t like t

Chapter 708 Whose Fault Is It Really?
In the Silva Penthouse, Liz took advantage of the wreckage of the coffee table to create more drama. “Here we have it, darling! The COFFEE TABLE is SHATTERED with Elaine’s body thanks to Patty—” “SHUT UP!” Fernando slammed the door shut. Liz trembled in panic, staring wide-eyed at her furious husband. “But what is this? Why are you angry with me, darling, when you should be furious with Patty—” “I command silence, and you keep babbling even more!” Fernando went to the utility room to grab a broom. Liz quickly grabbed her phone and took a picture of the shattered coffee table. Maybe this will come in handy for her in the future... “So, what are we going to do about this?” Liz shouted for Fernando to hear. Fernando returned with a broom and a dustpan in hand. “Don’t tell me you’re going to sweep this up!” Liz reacted horrified. “Let the maid clean it up on Monday!” “I won’t have a living room full of glass shards until Monday. I want to watch TV tomorrow!” Fernando’s ferocity
