Chapter 1307 How Long Will You Take Us for Fools?
Karl asked with a tone of slight exasperation, “What does she still need to talk about with that troubled young man? What else does she need to explain for him to understand that their history is over because of his own fault?”Sheila frowned. “Calm down, honey.”“I just want my son marrying the woman he loves.” Karl retorted, scowling. “Dad, am I exaggerating?”Abner was startled. He would normally say yes, but since his son asked first, he now didn’t have the courage to confirm.“Well...” Abner hesitated, “You aren’t exactly exaggerating, but you are quite emphatic, huh? It’s as if Matt and Patty’s relationship were in danger again.”“It isn’t.” Matthew shook his head. “We are stronger than ever.”“Then that’s it!” Karl smiled ironically. “Maintain that strength, that unity, and don’t let external factors interfere.”Sheila became more bothered. “You are calling my nephew Ron an ‘external factor’ and ‘interference’. How did Ron interfere?”“Why the hell did he message Jackson wantin
Chapter 1306 Acceptance and Resignation
Bryce grabbed the key hidden in a corner behind the potted plants. With so many tourists and beachgoers around, he couldn’t leave the house unlocked like before.Upon entering, he let Edmund and Tiffany pass. The couple entered, feeling a bit embarrassed.“Make yourselves at home, I’m going to put on some shorts,” Bryce said.“No need, son. You’d have to take a shower first, and we won’t be long.” Edmund gestured.Edmund said this because he didn’t mind seeing his son like that, in just his Speedos.But it was different with Tiffany. She, who was mentally hoping Bryce would put on more clothes, now had to force composure and not stare too much at his body.“Son, we haven’t spoken since the mess between our families exploded. I want to remedy that.” Edmund continued, starting the subject he wanted to say.“Did you come to say you’re going to marry Tiffany and take her out of the cultural hall?” Bryce asked with a slight smile.Tiffany was indignant. “Take me out of the cultural hall? W
Chapter 1305 Telling the Truth Without Implicating Himself
Sheila and Alice had trouble accepting that Elaine was harassing a model because of her preconceived notions.Sheila shook her head in disdain. “Jeez, Elaine is already divorced. She has nothing left to question.”Alice gestured, serious. “Wait, Sheila. Son, what did Miss Fraga tell you?”“She said she was drunk, Ronaldo was equally drunk, and they both gave in to immorality,” Karl spoke more convincingly. “There was never any deliberate plot to separate Ronaldo and Patricia. Besides, even if there were, Miss Fraga definitely wasn’t thinking about Elaine.”Alice smiled with scorn. “Elaine thinks she’s too important to think anyone would plot something like that.”Sheila wanted to clear up all doubts. “Well, that could raise the hypothesis again that everything that happened in Praia Grande was orchestrated.”Karl gestured furiously. “Are we going to resurrect that nightmare? I don’t want to be accused again! I don’t even know where João Pedro de Paula is anymore.”“He’s dealing with h
Chapter 1304 Telling Part of the Truth
“My dear Patty, tell me what your problem is,” Karl asked in a calm, comforting voice.But his expression was firm, with a purpose.Patricia saw Karl. She thought for a few seconds before saying, “Hello, Karl. Look, no offense, but I really wanted to discuss this with Matt. Jarbas already went to call him.”Alice took the hint. “Let’s leave them alone, Karl.”Karl didn’t move. “Matt will tell me later. It will be the same thing if I find out now.”Patricia thought that made sense. “Alright. Ronaldo sent a text message to Jackson (because I blocked his number) wanting to check the truthfulness of what is being discussed on the Internet.”Karl’s face hardened, his jaw tensing. Alice felt her son didn’t like the news.“That nephew of my wife’s should be focused on his psychiatric treatment,” Karl replied with a voice that sounded like a dog’s growl.Patricia was bothered by that. “Can we stop emphasizing ‘psychiatric’? It’s as if we were mocking or insulting Ron. It’s not his fault.”“It
Chapter 1303 Disappointed with the Family
Nathan stopped talking, feeling that Ernesto had actually appeared to save the day (or Bella).“Ernie, good morning. I didn’t mean to be a bother on a Sunday.” Nathan made a move to get up.“Don’t get up, son!” Ernesto turned to Bella. “Daughter, why don’t you bring us two cups of coffee?”“Sure! Afterwards, I’m going to have lunch with Jorge.” Bella promptly stood up and went to the kitchen.It really seemed like she was running away from Nathan.Ernesto sat where she had been. “Were you asking a question, Nate?”Nathan slightly lifted the left corner of his mouth. “I wanted to know if my mother knows about Gus’s illegal schemes.”“Look, Nate, when you put it that way—”“How else should I say it?” Nathan became more serious. “Did the Government happen to legalize the sale and possession of drugs without me knowing? Why did they arrest Gus if it’s legal?”Ernesto took a deep breath, not knowing (or not being able) to answer in a way that would stop Nathan from questioning him morally.
Chapter 1302 Does Our Mother Know About Our Brother’s Activities?
Patricia and her family arrived from Mass. Cindy quickly sat down on the sofa in the foyer to check the news.“Wow...” she said, smiling with satisfaction. “I’ve never had so many hits on my column as today.”“With me being the reason for that?” Patricia asked, in good spirits.“I have to congratulate you, Patty,” Cindy admitted. “I can barely believe I’m writing articles about someone who used to work hidden as a waitress at a kiosk.”“‘Hidden’ is the right word. I wanted to hide from the world,” Patricia replied, good-naturedly.Hélio kissed his daughter’s left cheek. “Well, that won’t be necessary anymore. Now, I want my daughter to conquer the world.”Jackson felt his cell phone vibrate. He took the device out of his dress pants pocket and wore an expression of astonishment as he checked the message.Vanda noticed her son’s extreme reaction. “What is it, son?”“I got a message from Ronaldo,” Jackson replied in a tense tone.“I thought, by now, you would have blocked his number!” C
