The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 481 Sheila Is Single Again
Andreia sat at her desk in the Urbano Magazine office. Her face was a mask of exasperation as she listened to the static-filled conversation on her cellphone.The recent revelations about Bella and Nathan had clearly taken their toll.She was calling the Cardoso family house, where Zilda was happily humming a tune from the 70s while doing the dishes.Her cheerful demeanor contrasts to the conversation she was about to have.“I think I should tell my husband to get a walker for our dear daughter,” Zilda mused aloud. “How lucky she is to finally have a boyfriend who loves her and pounds her mercilessly all night long—”The sudden ringing of Cindy’s phone interrupted Zilda's twisted thoughts. She answered with an almost playful tone. “Hello?”“Mrs. Cardoso? I’m sorry, I dialed the wrong number,” came the voice of Andreia, clearly distressed.Zilda, still in a playful mood, responded, “No, my dear, this is my daughter’s phone.”Andreia’s voice held a note of concern. “Uh... really? Is som
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 482 The Action Plan
Gibraltar Club. Patricia and Bryce were discussing something interesting about Karl. Patricia leans forward. “What do you mean, Bryce? Your dad, Mr. Hudson, knows Lawrence?” “Yeah, they were in the office today, chatting like old friends, catching up on gossip.” Bryce jokes, “They were talking about someone who was getting involved with his wife.” Patricia is taken aback. “Wow, someone is messing with Larry's wife? Is she going along with it?” “How would I know? I didn’t get there in time to hear that.” Bryce furrows his brow. “Well, I need to be fair and admit that Larry is charming, even though he’s older than I am. It doesn’t surprise me that he’s married; they usually are. But the wife must be very promiscuous and foolish not to appreciate what a great husband he is.” “I’m hearing a lot of praise coming from you, huh?” Bryce jokes again, sipping more of his Bellini. Patricia bursts out laughing. “Ha, ha, ha... Don’t be ridiculous, Bryce! If Ron hears me, he’ll freak out. An

Sheila enters Elaine’s office with a worried expression but feels relieved to find her daughter-in-law safely seated at her desk, reviewing the final production of Jonah Lopes’s upcoming novel cover.“Ah, Elaine, I’m so glad you’re here!”Elaine is surprised by her mother-in-law’s relief. “Sheila, what’s wrong? You seem like you thought I was in danger.”Sheila closes the door. “Indeed, I did think so. I said I wanted to come with you over here.”Elaine smiles, dismissing the idea. “You had other commitments, and I didn’t want to mess your appointments because of me.”Sheila approaches the desk. “Anything interesting?”“Come see how the cover of Jonah Lopes’s next novel turned out.” Elaine proudly points to the monitor.Sheila walks around the desk and faces the screen. Indeed, the cover is stunning and eye-catching.Sheila squints, intrigued. “Wait, I remember Ron was wearing pants...”Elaine grins mischievously. “Your nephew is quite a handsome man, Sheila. Our readers deserve to th
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 484 Impossible to Keep the Peace
Vicente and Walter are chatting in Young Mr. Andrade’s office.“How nice for you to have your own office, huh?” Vicente looks around the well-furnished, masculine office.“Pay attention, Mr. Gouveia.” Walter snaps his fingers.“Well then, my son claims that Miss Alvares’s brother showed up in his room outside visiting hours, threatening him. What are we going to do about it, young man? The security of this clinic has been completely lacking, don’t you think?”“I’m awaiting confirmation from the internal monitoring filming team, Mr. Gouveia.” Walter points to the computer, “Though I am inclined to accept your accusation.”Vicente is surprised, thinking he would face resistance and disbelief. “Oh, thank you very much.”“Linda hasn’t denied to me that her brother could act that way,” Walter admits in a professional tone. “He was very upset about the car accident they were in.”“OK, I admit I also didn’t like hearing that my son and Miss Alvares nearly drowned after drunkenly ‘driving’ in
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 485 Truce with the Mother, but Not with the Daughter
Golden Letters, Elaine’s office, noon. Patricia is taken aback when Elaine casually informs her that Matthew had a frame of her making the motivational speech at Lion’s Den.She is even more surprised to hear Elaine admit that she threw the frame into the fireplace at Sterling Mansion. “Uh... Elaine, I’m sorry, but I don’t know anything about this.” Patricia apologizes, embarrassed. Elaine continues with a mysterious expression, “Oh really? Your parents didn’t tell you, nor did Matt?” “There’s a frame of the picture they took of me at my house,” Patricia replied more firmly. “My dad was so proud of me. He adores me, I’m his little princess.” “I know how that feels; I had a father,” Elaine replied, frowning. “So, the situation is just as I’ve told you. I didn’t act well when I saw the frame; Matt insisted, and I threw it in the fireplace. We had a fierce fight and almost got divorced.” Patricia is even more shocked. “But you just got married! Divorce already? Come on, Elaine, I k

Blue Cove Beach. Bella and Nathan casually meet at the entrance of the beach house. “My God, Nate! I didn’t know you lived here, I swear!” Bella said, laughing. “What’s this, Bella?” Nathan took her hands. “You seem to be justifying yourself. I didn’t think you were following me.” “Are your parents here?” Bella asked cautiously. “No, they’re not.” Nathan grew serious. “Oh, I see.” “Nate, I hope you don’t get into trouble with your parents because of me.” Bella also grew serious, sad, “I don’t want that. Otherwise, it would be better if we never saw each other again.” Bella began to walk away, but Nathan grabbed her arm and pulled her toward him with some certain strength. “If it’s up to me, we’d go to my room right now!” Nathan growled, arousing Bella. “Wow, what a movie heartthrob...” Bella smiled mischievously. “Anyway, if you’re willing to face challenges, I am too.” “Are you willing to face your brother?” Nathan warned her, “Yesterday, he dared to break into my room, orde
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 487 Innuendos and Hints
Patricia leads Vanda to the information desk, taking advantage of the fact that Nayla is absent. “Mom, are you really sure that Elaine and you made a truce for the greater good?” “Absolutely!” Vanda smiles, satisfied. “Well, it seems like with me, things are still the same.” Patricia sighs deeply, discouraged. “She told me a ridiculous story about throwing the frame that Matt ordered into the fireplace, the same one Dad hung up in our house.” Vanda’s eyes widen as well. “Daughter, what nonsense is this? Your father and brother didn’t say anything about that.” “Not to me either.” Patricia is indignant. “Mom, Matt had a frame of mine while being married to Elaine, infuriating her and causing problems! I hope she doesn’t think I was to blame for that.” “Did you explain that to her?” Vanda asks. “Yes, and she SEEMS to have believed me.” Patricia is on high alert. “Oh no, our truce will last.” Vanda refuses to believe otherwise. “And since she wants to defeat Germano Cardoso, I bel
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 488 Sheila and Vanda Have Suspicions
Sheila can’t calm down as she walks through the halls of Golden Letters. She finds Vanda exiting Elaine’s office. “Oh, Vanda, do you have a minute?” “Yes, I do. But I’m heading home,” Vanda replied, noticing the concern in her friend’s eyes. “Come on, it’s better if we talk away from here.” The two ladies walk away from the office. Vanda suspects that the conversation will have something to do with Elaine. “Did Elaine tell you anything?” Vanda asked as they descended the stairs. “We had lunch together today,” Sheila comments. “Oh, right. She came back here with Nayla, talking about the recent events,” Vanda informs her. “Nayla was rather unpleasant, and Patty left without saying anything.” “Vanda, do you believe in that truce Elaine asked of you?” Sheila narrowed her eyes. “Well, we both decided that when we saw there were bigger problems than our egos,” Vanda replies practically. “OK. She may not want to confront you, to cause you distress,” Sheila reveals, “But it seems l

At Silva Oil Company, Kirk appeared in Leonardo’s office. Fernando and Marta had already left. “KIRK!” Leonardo abruptly stood up from his desk. “How are you, my young man!” “Mr. Silva?” Kirk was surprised by such reverence. “I didn’t know you cared so much about me...” “Cut the small talk! You just had a seizure and looked like you were going to die in my company,” Leonardo gestured for the employee to sit down. “Now I want to know all the details. Don’t hide anything from this curious old man.” Kirk smiled and sat down. “Well, sir, there’s not much to tell. I was stupid enough to fall for the siren’s song.” “In this case, the cocaine song, right?” Leonardo leaned forward. “What do you intend to do from here on out?” “Obviously, I promised myself and my family that I wouldn’t use that cr*p anymore. It wasn’t worth all the drama and suffering,” Kirk replied honestly. “That’s good. Then you can continue from where you left off,” Leonardo smiled, relieved. “That’s about what I w

Chapter 715 Cindy Got the Proof
In Urbano Magazine, Cindy returned with the printed sheet, extending it to Andreia. “Read this not-so-pretentious article, my friend,” Cindy declared. Andreia took the paper and read it. A smile formed at the right corner of her mouth. “Cool... nothing so blatantly accusatory, but clear enough for any semi-literate person to understand that Elaine knocked over that pyramid of champagne glasses, causing a scene at the book signing.” “Of course, I won’t say she did it because the honored author was her enemy’s mother,” Cindy replied mischievously. “You don’t want to risk Matt’s wrath.” Andreia stood up, a bit slowly due to her pregnancy. “Speaking of which, how did he react after your dad’s video?” “I didn’t bring it up with him,” Cindy shook her head. “If I mention it, people will say I still love him.” “And you don’t want to do anything to ruin your relationship with Jackson,” Andreia repeated. “Cindy, it’s commendable that you’re more committed and focused on having someone in

Chapter 714 He Couldn’t Get Over Patricia
Fernando appeared in the kitchen wearing gray sweatpants. Liz, who was sour and bitter, smiled pathetically with her gaze fixed on her husband’s pants. “Good morning, son. What’s new?” Ronaldo replied rudely, “The news is seeing my mother still able to walk!” “RON!” Liz was startled. Fernando shook his head. “Son, don’t be disrespectful. Your mother and I are trying to be as discreet as possible.” Ronaldo shot back, “Just missing discretion when discussing my fiancée, huh? Can we talk about that now?” Liz pursed her lips. “I was so happy when I woke up, but you made sure to ruin my day.” “Mom, we can’t avoid the obvious!” Ronaldo turned to Fernando. “Matt told me that Elaine was reprimanded.” “And I will never agree to that!” Liz shouted. “Elaine was a victim of that tough girl from the slums! She could have died from a cut to her jugular!” “But Elaine provoked Patty’s wrath by saying those nasty things,” Fernando reasoned as he served himself breakfast. “Couldn’t Patricia a

Chapter 713 Crazy People Don’t Deserve to Be Happy
Silva Penthouse, Monday morning. Ronaldo was walking down the hallway to the kitchen in just his boxer shorts when the suite door opened. Liz was smiling a little too much, looking like she was about to dance ballet. “Mom! Long time no see!” “Yes, son, I had a wonderful time with your father!” Liz replied suggestively. Ronaldo blushed to the roots of his hair. “Is breakfast ready?” she asked casually. “I was about to check,” Ronaldo said, heading to the kitchen. There, the coffee maker was already brewing coffee. “Nando must have prepared it in advance.” Liz took bread and butter from the fridge. Ronaldo, cautious, sat down at the table. He noticed a tear in Liz’s nightgown. “Mom, did you and Dad make up this Sunday?” “We can say he’s no longer in love with your fiancée,” Liz replied with a mischievous smile. “Mom, stop talking about that disgusting stuff!” Ronaldo frowned. “This is all your sick imagination.” Liz simply shrugged, sitting down at the table as well. “You’r

Chapter 712 Job Application for an Outcast
Elaine arrived stumbling with fear and bewilderment. The truth about Bella and Nathan’s relationship was something horrifying and incredible for her to digest. “Oh my God... how did these two families let this issue intertwine like this?” Nayla was at the reception desk, smiling, waiting for Elaine to approach. But when she realized Elaine was going to walk past her, Nayla called out loudly, “ELAINE?” Elaine stopped suddenly and looked at her friend. “Oh, Nayla, I’m sorry...” “Don’t worry. I know you must be going through a lot of pressure.” Nayla stood up. “I really am. But I always have time for my friends.” Elaine smiled and approached, trying to distract her mind. “I wanted to know if there are any openings here at Golden Letters for my brother.” Nayla asked respectfully. Elaine’s smile vanished with the wind. As Nayla’s boss, she knew who the brother was. “Nayla, we’re friends, but you know I have a strong opinion against drug use and sales.” Elaine replied in a boss t

Chapter 711 New Guidelines
At Andrade Clinic, Charles was leading a meeting with the receptionists and security guards. Walter and Emmanuelle were present. “So, everyone, the next time Liz Silva or anyone else causes a scene at the clinic entrance, security or even the police must be called in immediately. Don’t hesitate just because the troublemaker is someone from an important family. This is a hospital clinic, not a zoo, so I demand order in the lobby. A disturbance can jeopardize the patients who are waiting for care, and I don’t want to compromise anyone’s safety, understood?” “Yes, Mr. Andrade!” everyone responded in unison. “Okay, everyone can return to your posts.” The staff went back to work. Linda gave Walter a brief kiss before leaving. “Linda, I need to ask you a quick question,” Emmanuelle called her back. Linda paused, closing the door after the last person left. “Did you check with your parents if it’s safe to go home?” “No, Emmanuelle. The conversation with Gus was so good that I forgot

Chapter 710 Discovering Truths
In Matthew’s suite, he was now buttoning the cuffs of his genuine cotton dress shirt. Elaine had also gotten out of the bathtub, unable to continue relaxing, and was now putting on her work suit.The memory of the Golden Letters prompted Matthew to strike up a conversation. “Did you remove a glass from the base of the pyramid?” Elaine stared at Matthew as if he were the devil. “What? How can you throw a question like that out of nowhere?” “I just asked a question, woman, answer me.” Elaine shook her head as she walked to the sofa to put on her high heels. “This is inconceivable. Your mind is always revolving around Patricia’s issues. You never forget her, and then tell me I don’t need to worry.” “Was the champagne glass pyramid made for an occasion involving Patricia?” Matthew countered logically. “No, but it was her mother’s book signing.” Elaine angrily slipped on her shoes. “Well, I remembered that many claimed the embarrassment happened because someone removed a glass from

Chapter 709 Peace is Returning
Monday. Elaine was relaxing in the bathtub of her husband’s suite. Matthew stepped out of the shower stall, drying his hair with a white towel as he walked to the double sink. The sight of Matthew’s exposed body startled Elaine for a few seconds, but then she took advantage of the beautiful view, smiling mischievously. “It hardly feels like it’s Monday,” she commented casually. Matthew was washing his face as he said, “Yes, it’s Monday, the day to take care of important things after we relax our nerves on Sunday.” Elaine pursed her lips and retorted, “If I relaxed my nerves, it’s because they were in shambles. It’s not like me to live in constant stress, darling. I might not get the chance to calm down in the future.” Matthew turned off the faucet and grabbed a face towel. “Are you saying you would be willing to reduce your contact with Aunt Liz?” Elaine could no longer relax. “What does that mean?” Matthew tossed the towel onto the sink and turned to his wife. “I don’t like t

Chapter 708 Whose Fault Is It Really?
In the Silva Penthouse, Liz took advantage of the wreckage of the coffee table to create more drama. “Here we have it, darling! The COFFEE TABLE is SHATTERED with Elaine’s body thanks to Patty—” “SHUT UP!” Fernando slammed the door shut. Liz trembled in panic, staring wide-eyed at her furious husband. “But what is this? Why are you angry with me, darling, when you should be furious with Patty—” “I command silence, and you keep babbling even more!” Fernando went to the utility room to grab a broom. Liz quickly grabbed her phone and took a picture of the shattered coffee table. Maybe this will come in handy for her in the future... “So, what are we going to do about this?” Liz shouted for Fernando to hear. Fernando returned with a broom and a dustpan in hand. “Don’t tell me you’re going to sweep this up!” Liz reacted horrified. “Let the maid clean it up on Monday!” “I won’t have a living room full of glass shards until Monday. I want to watch TV tomorrow!” Fernando’s ferocity
