Chapter 1290 They Will Regret Being Born
"Mr. Borges, hello!" Alessandra greeted, a bit too obviously."Hello, Miss Fraga. It’s good to see you again, I think." Jackson looked at the model with suspicion."Yes, it really is good to see you." Alessandra suggestively ran her hand over Jackson's chest. "You’re still firm and hot since our last campaign. How about we participate in another one, huh?""Haven't people gotten tired of seeing me naked?" Jackson narrowed his eyes, asking icily.Alessandra felt herself ovulating at the question. Nayla bit her lower lip."No, the ladies will never get tired of seeing you au naturel!" Alessandra exclaimed, excited like a teenager in front of a K-Pop idol. "Let's go to the studios and make this happen.""You aren't authorized to enter!" Nayla woke from her immoral daydreams, returning to her receptionist pose. "Mr. Borges, I'm trying to tell Miss Fraga that Mrs. Sterling no longer works here!"Jackson was surprised b
Chapter 1289 Officially Divorced
Siren Restaurant, noon.Matthew and Patricia met, sitting at a reserved table.Patricia observed her boyfriend's neutral expression as he placed the order with the waiter."Any problem, honey?" Patricia took his right hand."No, if you can look at it that way." Matthew frowned. "The divorce has been finalized. I am officially single again.""And that makes you sad, doesn't it?" Patricia tried to be understanding."Honey, you know I was never flippant regarding marriage." Matthew spoke sincerely, pouring his heart out to her. "I never wanted to give the impression that I was marrying Elaine just to secure my presidency of the conglomerate. Even though that was part of my situation, it was only a part. I loved Elaine Prates.""I believe you, honey," Patricia replied kindly. "You were never one to have flippant relationships.""Sometimes, I resent how my father puts things so coldly and impersonally." Matthew softened his face. "W
Chapter 1288 I Don't Want to Get Involved with Drugs
Ernesto and Nathan continued talking."What line do you want to draw, Nate?""Here's the thing." Nathan became serious. "It's true that I wanted to get back at Gustavo for all the insults he put me through. However, I want to make it very clear that I also don't agree with drug trafficking. As far as I'm concerned, I killed two birds with one stone.""I understand." Ernesto nodded."Do you really understand, Ernie?" Nathan scratched his chin. "Well then, that being said, I don't want to get involved with any of that. Since you confessed your involvement, I assume the financial help you wanted to provide me comes from drugs, correct?"Ernesto swallowed hard, seeing that his stepson had guessed correctly.Nathan shook his head in regret. "I'm sorry, Ernie, but I can't accept it. I don't want my business to have seed capital from drug money. When the police find out, I'll be dragged into the middle of it, plus Elaine, my unborn child... And Mat
Chapter 1287 Don't Gossip About Us
Nathan reacted with total disappointment upon discovering that Gustavo wasn't the only one involved in the illicit drug scheme."Damn it, Ernie!" he revolted. "If I had known... You never did me any harm. I didn't want to hurt you, but everything that's been happening is revolting!""Now do you understand what kind of situation you put me in?" Ernesto sighed. "Gus will never tell the police who was above him in the scheme, and I need to protect my son without turning myself in. Otherwise, it would be two of us in jail.""Bella knows too, right?" Nathan started putting the pieces together. "Yes, she knows. That's why she blindly defends Gus. Linda doesn't know about this, which is why she was easily convinced by the Andrades.""Linda knows nothing," Ernesto asserted. "She is my favorite daughter, the one I chose to keep out of all the rot in the world. Having her meet Walter Andrade was exactly what I wanted for her: a kind, rich guy who would take her out
Chapter 1286 Ernesto Reveals Himself
At the Alvares family home, Nathan was surprised to hear something negative from Ernesto regarding his actions concerning Gustavo."Ernie, what did you mean by that?""That's right, Nate. You disrupted our work." Ernesto became more serious, now unable to turn back. "I hope what I say here stays between us.""You know something about Gustavo's work!" Nathan exclaimed dumbfounded, albeit in a low voice. His eyes widened. "You knew, that's why you were so dismayed by it...""Yes, I know." Ernesto here adopted the posture of a gang leader. "I know because I am one of the superiors Gus refuses to rat out to Sergeant Carvalho."Nathan stood up abruptly from his chair, totally shocked."This isn't happening!" Nathan exclaimed louder. "YOU? The boss of the Lion’s Den drug trafficking ring?""One of the bosses. But I still have someone above me, the boss of the whole thing," Ernesto replied without blushing or blinking. "And believe me,
Chapter 1285 The Wedding Setting
Ernesto and Nathan entered the master of the house's study at the Alvares family home.Nathan whistled. The place was small but well-designed. Ernesto even had a desk."Let's sit in these chairs here," Ernesto pointed.Nathan didn't hesitate to sit down. "I'm curious to know what you want to talk about so badly."Ernesto sat down, smiling like a salesman. "I think I know how to help you with a job.""Ah, I see." Nathan smiled in gratitude. "You want to get me a job at the Silva Oil Company docks, is that it?"Ernesto chuckled. "Anything against working as a stevedore? A technician? A forklift operator?""Look, I have a good body; I could handle carrying those crates." Nathan patted his arms. "But, I have zero experience. I'd probably be more of a hindrance than a help."Ernesto waved his hand. "Don't worry, I wasn't thinking about the docks. You and Elaine will probably want to work together.""We're still thinking about
