Chapter 1258 Sweet, But Empowered
“Daughter, why did Elaine tell you this slander?” Vanda broke the silence, unwilling to accept it as the truth.“Mom, do you think it’s a lie?” Patricia asked cautiously. She wanted to know the others’ opinions.Hélio cleared his throat unnecessarily. “Well... Ahem... This might be a clever maneuver on her part. Did she say who the father was?”“No, the shameless woman wanted to keep it a secret.” Patricia pursed her lips.“Then, there are no doubts. She is lying through her teeth,” Jackson verbalized his indignation. “She’s just saying this to discourage Matt.”“How could she?” Patricia seemed relieved. It seemed she had thought the same thing but didn’t want to be labeled paranoid. “She really wants to use the unborn baby as a weapon!”“Involving the child in a complicated situation, practically calling him a bastard.” Hélio shook his head. “A truly unpleasant woman.”“Good thing Cindy went to work early,” Jackson laughed. “She would have had a field day with talk like this!”******
Chapter 1257 Reading Between the Lines
Tuesday.Elaine was sitting at the breakfast table, staring intently at her cell phone. Suddenly, looking closely, she discovered the interview Cindy had conducted with Karl and Sheila saved in the history. But she hadn’t read it yet.Elaine nodded to herself. At this moment, she was pretending to Nathan that she had no interest in the stories involving Matthew and Patricia. But Nathan had snatched her phone and seen the screen.“Well, that’s why I didn’t read it. But I guess now is the time.” Elaine smiled.With that in mind, Elaine proceeded to read it carefully.And as she read, her eyes widened at a passage by Karl.Nathan appeared wearing a tie and business attire, ready for another day at Urbano Magazine.“Hello, darling!” He said, noticing her plate. “You’re skipping eating again to read this gossip about your enemies.”Elaine countered, her eyes fixed on the phone, “Matt isn’t necessarily my enemy, only in the divorce hearings. I have an enemy even worse than Patricia!”Nathan
Chapter 1256 Two Resignations
At the Gibraltar Club, the most fantastic conversation Patricia had ever participated in was unfolding. Taking another sip of the drink she had ordered, she simply couldn't believe Elaine’s revelation."Excuse me, I don’t think I understood that correctly,” Patricia said, stunned.“You didn’t see that one coming, did you?” Elaine mocked.“I always expect the worst from you!” Patricia snapped angrily. “But I truly didn’t expect that you would cheat on Matt!”“Don’t think it was something planned to hurt Matt!” Elaine replied defensively.“Ah, the classic ‘It just happened’!” Patricia said with heavy sarcasm. “When will you people learn?”“Don’t compare me to your ex-fiancé. Ronaldo Silva was a pervert who couldn’t keep it in his pants until the wedding.”“Then explain your case!”“I was alone, vulnerable,” Elaine said, lowering her voice. “Matt and I fought once again, and I went to vent to someone.”“Do I know this ‘someone’?” Patricia asked suspiciously.“I’m not telling you!” Elaine
Chapter 1255 The Baby Is Not Matthew’s
Patricia took a slow sip of her drink, already irritated by Elaine’s insinuations and relentless venom.“You were saying, dear?” she asked coolly.Elaine’s eyes flashed. “Don’t provoke me! I can’t drink, I’m pregnant.”“I had no intention of provoking you,” Patricia replied calmly, taking another measured sip. “Nor of stealing Matt from you. You were always the paranoid one, deeply insecure, seeing betrayal where none existed, wearing down Matt’s patience day after day. No man deserves to live beside a woman who does nothing but complain.”Elaine stiffened. “Matt and I were perfectly fine before you interfered.”“Oh, really?” Patricia said lightly, her tone almost amused. “I can’t quite remember if that’s true...”Elaine pointed a trembling finger at her. “Listen carefully, Patricia Borges. What I truly need to say has nothing to do with you.”“There’s more?” Patricia asked, unimpressed.“Yes. I need you to deliver a message to Matt.”Patricia smirked. “Can’t you do that yourself?” Sh
Chapter 1254 A Journalistic Interview at Silva Oil Company
Maurício did not want to get dragged into yet another web of intrigue involving the Alvares family, yet doubt gnawed at him, especially where Linda’s conduct was concerned. Across the room, Edmund and Tiffany exchanged sly smiles, pleased to see that the seed of suspicion had finally begun to sprout.“So?” Edmund pressed, his tone confident. “Don’t we have a point?”“Don’t get carried away,” Maurício snapped, guarded and defensive. “I’m still thinking.”“And how long do you plan on thinking?” Tiffany shot back, leaning closer. “From inside a prison cell?”Maurício flinched. “I thought medical orders were not to agitate the patient!”Edmund raised a calming hand toward Tiffany. “Come on, sweetheart. It’s better to let your brother think this through.”But Tiffany wasn’t done. “Just remember this, bro: Linda won’t stop. People like her never do. Knowing her, she might even reach out to Marilza Peres or Cindy Cardoso to do the dirty work.”At that moment, Walter appeared at the doorway,
Chapter 1253 Elaine Wants to Confront Patricia
Tiffany refused to accept Bryce’s resignation. Ironically, neither she nor Edmund had the slightest idea that Bryce was just a few meters away, inside the very same Andrade Clinic, asking Walter for a job.“Ed! Why would Bryce do something so insane?” she cried, frustration spilling into her voice. “Wasn’t leaving home dramatic enough?”“He’s acting like some rebellious teenager, that’s what!” Edmund snapped, rubbing his temples.Maurício, still lost in the conversation, looked between them with deep confusion. “Would someone care to tell me what’s going on here?”Only then did Tiffany and Edmund realize how ridiculous they must look.“Uh... Maurício,” Edmund began awkwardly, “I’m your sister’s boyfriend. João Pedro and some others already know.”Maurício’s eyes widened in mocking shock. “And did my parents get dragged into this clinic after fainting from disappointment?”Tiffany’s cheeks turned red. “I haven’t told them yet...”“Well, perfect! Keep sneaking around like a pair of high
