Chapter 1312 Leaving Them Unpunished?
“Bella, I think that question is out of line,” Linda replied, breaking the awkward silence.Bella, however, wanted the gossip. “Please, guys, tell me! After all, we need to join forces to face this situation, especially now that the ‘De Paula’ issue has been resolved.”“But you still have one more pending issue,” Nathan reminded her. “How is Gustavo’s situation?”“Dad got a lawyer,” Linda replied as if it were no big deal.However, Nathan noticed Bella lowering her head as if she were ashamed.He concluded that the lawyer arranged by his stepfather is one of those who can find loopholes in the Law to release criminals like Gustavo.“If Ernie manages to get Gus off,” Nathan spoke more to Bella than to Linda, “he’d better leave town until the dust settles.”“It will be a shame, but you’re right, Nate,” Linda nodded. “That way, no one will fill the Andrade family’s head with nonsense and my wedding will continue as planned.”Elaine smiled slightly. “And how are the preparations going?”“
Chapter 1311 Better to Have Peace Than to Be Right
Matthew felt the absence of fingers on his forehead and turned around, finding an angry Patricia.“What is it?” he asked, clueless.“You know what happened!” Patricia grumbled. “Do you really think Ronaldo won’t come back here if I’m still working at the Silva Oil Company?”“It’s a possibility.” Matthew shrugged.“No. If what you think is true, then it would be more likely for him to show up as early as tomorrow, eager for me to be his assistant.” Patricia ran her fingers over his right shoulder, teasing him. “Is that what you want?”“No, of course not!” Matthew took her hand and kissed it fervently.“Then please stop having insecurities because I’m not going to go back to Ronaldo. I won’t hate him, but I won’t lower my standards for him either.” Patricia settled the matter, pulling away.The door opened before her, Sheila stepping inside. She smiled upon seeing her son present with Patricia.“I know it sounds like a cliché, but... Am I interrupting something?”“Then let’s break the c
Chapter 1310 Indecisions
“Easy now, we don’t need to get so angry,” Matthew mocked ironically.He loved it when his enemies lost their composure and did foolish things!Elaine joined the chorus of the discontented. “Matt, for the love of God, you will have your DNA test. But I still think you should accept the truth and spare yourself the embarrassment.”Matthew smiled out of the left corner of his mouth. “Every time you say that, it only makes me more convinced that I am the father of your son. A boy, to boot.”“NO!” Nathan exploded. “Don’t give us that ‘heir’ nonsense! You sound just like my father talking!”Matthew’s smile vanished, glaring ferociously at Nathan with murderous intent.What did he mean, he was talking like Vicente?What an absurd comparison!“Don’t worry, Nathan,” Matthew retorted in kind. “I’m not going to kidnap you and make the whole world believe you died, depriving you of over twenty years of life with your son. Elaine and your son aren’t going to live hidden in Lion’s Den, suffering t
Chapter 1309 The Week Starts Tense
Monday.Matthew, now alone in his suite, was scrolling through his cell phone, checking the news and updates from people he followed.At the top of his screen, a notification from Elaine appeared.Matthew sighed. He had forgotten to unfollow Elaine.If Patricia found out about this, would she react with jealousy?Before that could happen, Matthew decided to unfriend her.But before doing so, Matthew ended up seeing Elaine’s latest post.What he saw left him perplexed.A photo of Elaine still in the hospital bed, holding her baby, a boy, with Nathan by her side, both smiling.Nathan was wearing a surgical cap and blue scrubs, indicating that he had attended the birth as if he were the father.Come to think of it, Elaine had said Nathan was the father...Matthew frowned. Who was this responsible Nathan? Where was the playboy of the past?Matthew had doubted Elaine would be happy with Nathan, but now he had to eat his words.Someone knocked on the door.“Come in!”The door opened, and Sh
Chapter 1308 It Was Him
“I don’t want to make anyone a fool,” Karl retorted, offended. “I want people to know the truth: Matthew and Patricia have always loved each other, and you were just a remedy for a situation that was resolved long ago!”Elaine reacted furiously. “But how... how can you speak like that, so cruel, so cold?”“Elaine, what else do I have to do for you to understand?!” Karl shouted. “Accept once and for all that you are not and never were a match for Patricia! You were interested in Jackson, and your readiness to run into Nathan’s arms just proves it! Admit that you never loved Matthew! What you loved was the status of Mrs. Sterling!”“And how can you be sure that Patricia won’t be the same?” Elaine shouted back, panting.“I sense that you are stressed. Better to end this here,” Karl replied cautiously.This made Elaine angrier. “NO! Answer me! What is it, can’t you be honest with me regarding the bitch Borges, huh?”“Goodbye, Elaine. Do not bother Miss Fraga, much less my son!” Karl hung
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
