The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 404 Gossip Old Man
The night fell down in Blue Cove.At Jonah’s penthouse, Sheila managed to get up and was now walking very slowly to the kitchen, wincing in pain with each step.Karl was attentively cooking shrimp risotto on the stove.“Hmm, it smells good... Ouch!” Sheila said.“Be careful, dear. You should go back to bed,” Jonah advised.“Bed, where? Our bed went kaput,” Sheila replied playfully.Jonah, puffed up with pride, responded, “Of course, that’s how it should be! My dad raised me to be a virile man.”“I’ll congratulate my father-in-law one of these days,” Sheila said.At the mention of his father as “father-in-law,” Jonah burned his finger.“OUCH, DAMN IT!”“Everything okay, dear?” Sheila asked.Dismayed, Jonah replied, “Dear, you know my parents have passed away. I’m not that young.”“I’m joking. Did you really have to get scared because of that?” Sheila asked.“No, it’s the word you used,” Jonah said, his voice trailing off.Sheila’s smile faded, not liking the direction of the conversati
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 405 Elaine Faces Jacqueline
Matthew and Evan entered the Sterling Mansion foyer with irritated expressions.Jarbas, looking concerned, extended his hand to take Matthew’s coat.“Good evening, gentlemen! What happened?” Jarbas asked.“You wouldn’t believe it, Jarbas,” Evan replied, shaking his head.Jarbas responded with a knowing look, “I’ve been at the Sterling Mansion long enough to believe any madness, Secretary Evan.”“Alfredo Dantas got up to something again,” Matthew’s voice was cold and dangerous. “I gave it some time so his dismissal wouldn’t be too obvious.”“It seems like you should have fired him even if it caused a stir on social media,” Evan suggested.Matthew’s irritation was palpable. “That’s what I don’t understand. The Bento boys refused to get rid of Nate because, according to them, it would backfire on me. So, how come—”Jarbas put his hand to his right ear, nodding as he listened to the message through his earpiece. “I understand,” he said, then turned to Matthew. “Young Matthew, shareholder
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 406 The Storm Within
Matthew, Thomas, and Evan entered Abner’s office with serious faces, ready to tackle another big problem. Matthew closed the door and gestured for his companions to take their seats.Thomas and Evan chose comfortable, upholstered chairs, while Matthew stood before them.“So?” Evan broke the silence.“Let’s hear what Mr. Turner has to say,” Matthew responded, gesturing to him.Thomas leaned forward, ready to sum up the situation. “Alfredo Dantas has been telling several board members who voted for Nathan that you intend to fire everyone, making a real purge of the board.”Matthew’s face twisted with outrage. “But that’s a lie!”He kicked a nearby chair, sending it crashing to the floor. The sudden noise startled both Evan and Thomas.Thomas nodded. “I figured it was a lie.”“I never said anything like that,” Matthew insisted. “In fact, I didn’t even mention Alfredo’s dismissal, although I had it in mind. How could the other board members have believed this lie so completely?”“I don’t
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 407 Showdown at the Andrade Mansion
Matthew and Thomas continued their conversation in Abner’s office, the awkwardness between them palpable.“It looks like I’ve touched on a sensitive topic,” Thomas observed.Matthew looked embarrassed. “It’s something, isn’t it? It wasn’t supposed to be a sensitive issue. The wedding day is approaching, but for some strange reason, I keep making my fiancée handle her work matters instead of focusing on the wedding preparations.”“Have you sent out the invitations?” Thomas asked gently.“No,” Matthew admitted.Thomas jolted. “Has she chosen the wedding dress?”“No.”“Did you have your bachelor party?” Thomas pressed further.Matthew, now extremely embarrassed, spoke softly, “No... No...”Thomas looked worried, thinking about what to say next. “My dear, it seems like you don’t really want to get married.”Matthew’s desperation showed. “But I should get married! I NEED to! Look at the huge problem Alfredo Dantas STILL causes me, even though I’m the president of the conglomerate!”“Cheer
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 408 Dinner with the Borges
The dinner hosted by Vanda in honor of Karl was in progress. Patricia and Hélio were getting to know him better.“Tell me, Mr. Vieira—” Patricia began.“You’d better call me Lawrence, or Larry,” Karl responded charismatically.Patricia laughed. “Ha, ha, ha... My dad and my boyfriend are going to kill me.”Ronaldo was surprised. “Huh? I didn’t know about this.”Everyone laughed in a cascade, creating a relaxed atmosphere. Ronaldo didn’t want to play the jealous boyfriend.Karl continued, “Okay, so I don’t break up a lovely couple, you can call me Lawrence. Your mother will call me that, and so will your father.”Hélio asked jokingly, “Is every public relations person like this, charismatic and friendly with everyone?”“We have to handle the public in the best way possible,” Karl replied.“Imagine how many books we’re going to sell, huh?” Vanda grinned, imagining the money coming in her pocket.Karl, pointing to the carbonara on his plate, said, “Vanda, dear, now is the time for pleasur
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 409 Don’t Leave Me!
At the opulent Sterling Mansion, in the dimly lit study, Matthew stood with an air of anxious tension, his cell phone pressed firmly against his ear.His face was etched with confusion and frustration, the silence on the other end only heightening his unease.Across town, in the more modest yet still refined Andrade Mansion, the ringing of Walter’s cell phone cut through the quiet of the night.Walter, disheveled and in nothing but his boxer shorts, fumbled hurriedly to grab the phone from his bedside.His voice was tinged with anxiety as he answered, “Hello?”“Walt, I need to have a quick chat with you,” Matthew’s voice came through, sharp and urgent.Walter’s tone softened, “Take your time, I’m not in a hurry.”Without missing a beat, Matthew pressed on, “Did Elaine come by causing trouble?”Walter sighed deeply, collapsing onto his bed with a sense of weariness. “The news spread quickly. Jacque is doing her thing.”Matthew’s voice was terse, “No, it wasn’t Jacque who told me. It wa
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 410 The Demure Lady Became a Sl*t!
In the cozy living room of the Cardoso family house, the evening settled into a tranquil rhythm.Roses, elegantly arranged in a vase, added a touch of romance to the room. Cindy and Jackson, nestled comfortably on the couch, continued their conversation, their bodies close in contented intimacy.“What did you think of dinner, dear?” Cindy asked, her voice soft with affection.Jackson, patting his belly with a satisfied grin, replied, “It was very tasty.”Cindy’s eyes twinkled with playful mischief. “Don’t worry, my love. The food won’t affect your toned belly, much to my delight.”Jackson chuckled, “Do you think you’re the only one happy about that?”Cindy, with a subtle shift in topic, suggested, “Anyway, to let dinner digest, let’s talk about the latest news. Did you know Nate was fired so I could be promoted?”Jackson’s eyebrows shot up in surprise. “Really? He’s no longer at Urbano?”Cindy nodded, her expression serious. “After what he did, trying once again to usurp Matt’s throne
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 411 She’ll Move Here
The next morning in the Sterling Mansion, Matthew’s suite was enveloped in a soft, muted darkness, pierced only by the occasional creak of the double bed.The sound underscored the strength and vigor of its occupant, who stirred as the alarm clock rang with an insistent buzz.Matthew emerged from beneath the covers, his expression startled but his body still full of energy. He was red and sweaty, yet remarkably unwearied.“Huh? Is it already six in the morning?” Matthew mumbled, his voice showing disbelief.Elaine, who lay beside him, was utterly exhausted. Her fatigue rendered her unable to respond or even move.Matthew, gritting his teeth with a sense of determination, muttered to himself, “I was just getting started…”He reached over to turn off the alarm clock, then threw back the covers and got out of bed.As he opened the curtains, sunlight poured into the suite, revealing the disarray left from the night before. The room was a testament to the passionate encounter they had shar
