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

    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

    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

    Beach House, Afternoon. Vicente is stunned by the blind defense Matthew makes of Bella. Bella has only had lunch and has been doing the dishes, but the scene is so tense that she feels caught in bed with Nathan. “You all are reacting as if something sinful is happening in here!” Bella voices her indignation. “Please, calm down you two!” “I’ll calm down when you’re gone, my dear!” Vicente retorts. “Let it be that way!” Bella places the apron on the table. “Nate, thank you so much for lunch.” “You’re welcome, friend. We’ll see each other around.” Nathan smiles kindly. Bella returns the smile and leaves without saying goodbye to Vicente. After hearing the door close, Vicente lets out a long sigh. Nathan softens his voice. “Dad, I’m sorry if I overreacted.” “Well, my young man, it seems we will have another kind of conversation, huh?” Vicente crosses his arms. Nathan feels uncomfortable. “Don’t you think we’ve talked enough? What else is there to say?” “It seems your eternal d

    Cardoso Family House, Afternoon. Germano sits at his desk, staring at his laptop, thinking... He could still hear, albeit muffled, the ferocious and incessant creaking of Cindy’s bed. Before him was the email from Karl ‘suggesting’ that he invite Jonah or Patricia onto his channel for a live podcast-style interview. The door opens and Zilda enters, smiling. “Hey, dear! Did you finish recording your video?” “Yes, I did. And I was looking for an agency specializing in video editing and finishing for something more professional when I came across this email,” Germano replies seriously. Germano had hoped Zilda would notice the creaking of their daughter’s bed, but she is completely oblivious. As she walks around the desk, Zilda leans in to read. “Lawrence Vieira, PR of Golden Letters... He wants you to give Patty the Bombshell some airtime? Why?” “To clear her name.” Germano rolls his eyes. “There’s no way, these people act blindly for that slum girl.” “Shh!” Zilda points to the

    Charles provides a chair for Linda to sit in. She needed it, as she looked like she was about to faint! “Sit down, Linda.” “Thank you, sir.” Linda takes a deep breath. “Gentlemen, I think I need to explain certain things about my family.” “Well, that would be excellent.” Charles smiles broadly. “Since my son is very interested in you, and you’ve already seen him shirtless the night of Nathan Gouveia’s accident, we can meet your parents, your family.” Walter laughs while Linda blushes in embarrassment. Is she in one of those countries where marriage is arranged? “Okay, you already know that I live in Lion's Den, not far from where the Borges family used to live.” Linda begins to speak, clearing her throat. “We are very humble. Gustavo and my father work at Silva Oil Company, and I am your receptionist.” Walter gently asks, “Linda, you don’t have to answer. But everyone says that your sister… and we saw her that night. She was acting like a prostitute.” Linda shakes her head des

    At the Sterling Empire headquarters, Sheila is now talking to Karl via video conference. “The old man Cardoso rejected our proposal?” Sheila reacts in shock. Karl responds from his office, “That’s a shame. Even Elaine was disappointed.” “Matt won’t like this…” Sheila grows suspicious. “I wouldn’t be surprised if he cancels his honeymoon plans with Elaine. And she could end the truce she and Vanda established.” “There won’t be any need for that.” Jonah shakes his head. “Your son can travel freely; we’ll take care of this. After all, we need to be of some use, right?” Sheila smiles, feeling more confident. “Did you read the article?” “Yes, I skimmed it.” Karl replied with a smile. He had saved the Urbano article in his ‘favorites’ on his computer. “The idiot called, wanting to convince me to come back, but I didn’t give him a chance. No ring in hand, no consent from me.” “That’s right, friend.” Karl does not hide his satisfaction. Sheila and he continue to chat amicably.******

    “Excuse me, Mr. Silva.” Gustavo scratches the back of his neck. “There’s something I’m not understanding here.”“I’m willing to clarify any doubts.” Ronaldo smiles helpfully.“Where do you fit into all of this?” Gustavo narrows his gaze.“Here’s the thing: your sister showed up here wanting to pass you a message, but the doorman wouldn’t let her in.” Ronaldo leans back in his chair. “Patricia, my girlfriend, let her in. She introduced herself as the girl who was with Nathan Gouveia in that weird accident near the Happy Snack Bar.”Gustavo’s face turns red with embarrassment. “Yes, that’s going to become a stain on the Alvares family.”“She wanted to talk to you or your father.” Ronaldo completes the message. “She made it clear that she wants to talk at the Gibraltar Club. She’s expecting you at 7:00 PM because she doesn’t want to discuss this at home.”Gustavo smiles disdainfully. “Of course, she knows she has nowhere to run at home. That’s why she wants to discuss it in a public plac

    At the Sterling Cultural Hall, Edmund cleverly greeted Matthew at the entrance instead of waiting for him in his office. Perhaps Edmund needed witnesses... “Why didn’t you wait for me in the office?” Matthew asked him with a furrowed brow. “Hello, Young Matthew... Secretary Evan...” Evan had ominously stuck his hand inside his jacket. Edmund swallowed hard, realizing the implication of that. Matthew shook his head. “Okay, if you want to be reprimanded in front of the staff... what the hell is going on here, Edmund?” “Are you referring to Vicente Gouveia’s live concert?” Edmund wanted to buy time. “Who told you?” “The announcement is plastered on the website. Don’t be obtuse, Mr. Hudson!” Evan reprimanded him sternly. Edmund grimaced, but he lacked the courage to retort. “Edmund, I thought you knew that Uncle Vicente and I ceased our business partnership,” Matthew continued. “Therefore, I want all preparations for the concert to cease IMMEDIATELY!” Matthew’s voice thundered th

    The landline phone on Edmund’s desk rang, and he answered. “Sterling Cultural Hall, Edmund Hudson, good afternoon.” On the other end, Matthew was overly cheerful. “GOOD AFTERNOON, Ed! Matthew Sterling speaking!” Edmund felt his throat tighten. “Yes, Mr. Sterling, I can hear you loud and clear.” “Are you complaining that I’m speaking too loudly?” Matthew asked scandalously. “No, no... how can I assist you?” “Are you serving me, Ed?” Matthew asked irreverently. “It doesn’t seem that way. I feel like you’re serving the interests of my Uncle Vicente, the one who hates me and possibly killed my father.” Edmund began to tremble. “Young Matthew, I can explain.” “No need. I’m coming over right now, and I hope you wait for me. It’s better we talk in person, man to man, don’t you think?” “Yes, I think that—” Edmund felt Matthew hang up on him. Matthew abruptly got up from his desk. “Can we go, Evan?” “Right away, sir!” Evan grabbed his suit jacket. Matthew returned to his usual pos

    At the Sterling Empire headquarters, Evan entered Matthew’s office only to find him sitting on the sofa, staring into space as if he were in deep meditation. “Hello, Young Matthew... any problems?” “It seems we’re having some communication issues, Evan,” Matthew said, still in the same position. Evan promptly grabbed his tablet, checking messages and the agenda for the day. “I don’t see where I failed to communicate anything to you, Young Matthew. What did you miss?” Matthew turned to him. “You failed to tell me that the Sterling Cultural Hall is hosting my uncle, the one who hates me, whose son hates me even more, for a live concert this Saturday.” Evan lost color in his face. “B-but that’s impossible! I never communicated anything like that to you because none of that is happening!” “Take a look at the Sterling Cultural Hall website,” Matthew pointed to the computer, his tone icy. Evan swallowed hard and complied. Indeed, the announcement was prominently displayed. “This is

    In the podcast studio, Jorge walked into the office and found Bella placing the printed scripts on his desk. She reacted with surprise, as if she had been caught stealing. “Hey, why so startled?” Jorge asked with a chuckle. “I didn’t expect to be caught by anyone,” Bella replied, embarrassed. Jorge approached her, smiling. “So, how about we have lunch together?” “What happened to the ‘employee-doesn’t-date-boss’ policy?” Bella tried to step back. Jorge pulled her by the left arm. “That policy doesn’t exist here in my studio. Everyone can date freely, even me.” Bella didn’t want to, but she couldn’t resist and let out a good laugh. “So, does that mean there’s no Mrs. Nunes?” “Not yet.” Jorge looked at her with interest. “So, what do you say?” “Well...” Bella started to ponder. “If you’re worried about being recognized at the Siren Restaurant, there are other places.” Jorge raised his eyebrows like a persistent boy. “Yes, I’m actually thinking about that possibility. We can’t

    At the Sterling Cultural Hall, Bryce was standing, still dizzy from the feeling that his theory finally made sense. “If Mrs. Sterling proves that man is her deceased husband... how would Matt feel? Would he stop being the heir to the Sterling Empire since his father is still alive?” Edmund entered the office hearing his son’s question and filled with rage. “That conspiracy theory of yours is driving you crazy. You’re even talking to yourself!” “Dad, you can mock as much as you want. The truth always comes to light; that’s how things work.” Bryce grabbed his wallet and his phone. “I’m going to lunch; are you coming with me?” “No, I have to take care of a few things first. Vicente Gouveia’s concert needs to be perfect!” “And does Matt know about this?” Bryce asked provocatively. “Go eat, go, son...” Edmund ran his fingers over his forehead, pretending to have a headache. Bryce smiled, realizing that Matthew was completely in the dark about this concert. ****** At Borges House,

But if you’re acting this way, it’s because you’ve embraced my theory and are going all the way to uncover the truth. Right?” Bryce returned the photos.Sheila took them with exasperation. “You can bet on that! I won’t let this issue die. And I already know how I’m going to find out if Karl and Larry are the same person or not.”Bryce smiled slyly. “The Andrade Clinic has a DNA testing lab.”Sheila also smiled, but she didn’t have that in mind...******At the Ster

    At the Sterling Empire headquarters, Matthew was at his desk, looking at Ste-learning’s financial report. Leaning back in his chair, he recalled the conversation he had with Elaine...Elaine waggled her finger. “No chance. I deserve a man who truly loves me. I won’t just be ‘Mrs. Sterling’ to society. I want to be YOUR lady too.”Matthew’s phone ringing interrupted his daydreaming. Seeing it was Walter, he answered, “Hello?”Walter was speaking from his office, “Matt, I’m sorry to interrupt your work.”“Don’t worry, I always have time for my friends.” Matthew smiled warmly.“Do you have time to find out that Nathan has been undergoing some tests around here?”Matthew was intrigued. “What? Tests? Walt, do I deserve to know about this?”“Well, you are his cousin.” Walter apologized.“I thought there was confidentiality in these matters.” Matthew didn’t want Walter to get into trouble revealing confidential patient information from the clinic.“That may be, but Bella Alvares didn’t keep

    Sheila couldn’t believe it.She had gone to Urbano Magazine with an idea she thought was unlikely, but worth checking out.Now, with Ted performing the editing procedures on the photo of Karl, Sheila found herself stunned.On Ted’s computer screen was the photo of Karl. But with the aging edits, she was looking at ‘Lawrence.’Even Ted began to see the resemblance. “Hey, the late Mr. Sterling looks like that PR guy from Golden Letters... Lawrence Vieira, right? You’ve been dating him.”“Yes, and I knew he looked like my husband, but not this much!” Sheila tried to appear casual, getting up. “Thank you, Ted! Can you... print this photo for me?”“Of course!” After the photo was printed, Sheila took it and held it in her right hand while holding the original photo in her left. Placing them side by side, she had no doubt: it seemed as she was looking at the same person, except the one on the right was older.“Well...” Sheila said quietly to herself, “There’s only one way to find out.”****

    In Urbano Magazine, Sheila and Cindy were gathered around Ted’s desk, a young member of the magazine’s cover art editing team.Ted scanned the photo Sheila brought and passed it into a very advanced editing program. Cindy smiled mischievously.“Jeez, I can only imagine what your husband would have been like if he were alive.”Sheila replied in a mysterious tone, “That’s exactly what we’re going to find out.”“What?” Cindy jolted.“I want Ted to make some alterations so we can see what Karl would look like if he were alive.”Ted smiled, taking a guess, “Mrs. Sterling, surely your husband wouldn’t have such dark blonde hair. He would be in his forties or fifties, gray-haired and with some wrinkles.”Sheila thought carefully about “Lawrence.” He was the same age as her, but his body was still healthy and fit, attractive...“Start by adding some gray strands to him, Ted, please.” Sheila began, pulling up a chair and sitting close to the young man.“I’ll leave you two alone.” Cindy patted
