Chapter 1542 Enough of Babysitting Me!
“Dad, what kind of nonsense is this?” Matthew seemed to have a permanent scowl whenever he spoke to his father. He never gave Matthew any reason to smile. “You came all the way here to make sure whether I was going to the wedding or not? What kind of craziness is this?”“Son, you need to understand that I only do everything for your own good.” This was Karl’s worn-out excuse, repeated to exhaustion.“Cut it out. You don’t care about me even a little bit. What you like is having control over everything and manipulating it all. Tell me, what do I gain from so much intervention and interference in my life?”“Replace those words with ‘care’ and ‘concern.’” Karl smiled shamelessly, having the nerve to say such nonsense with a straight face.“Nonsense!” Matthew snapped. “Look, Dad, I know you’re not to blame for being absent for half of my life. You were kidnapped, and we all thought you were dead. However, you need to understand that I’m an adult. I can’t allow you to keep treating me like
Chapter 1541 Patricia e Ronaldo Get Married
The day of Ronaldo and Patricia’s wedding had finally arrived.The grand occasion overshadowed the attempted attack at Urbano Magazine’s editorial office. The thugs were arrested, and Sergeant Carvalho promised to conduct the necessary investigations.Because of that, when the big day came, no one was willing to stress over something so horrible.The wedding ceremony was held at the Golden Sun Church.Thanks to the influence of the Borges family, several high-society families were invited, and they gladly accepted.The families who had doubts or reservations were convinced by Benny.“What do you mean, you’re not going?” Benny said emphatically to a fellow businessman over the phone. “You need to go. The Borges family is not a clan to be taken lightly. They are rising and reaching the same level as the Sterling family. And if Karl Sterling keeps being such a pain, they’re going to surpass them!”As a result, when the time came, the hired valets had trouble parking all the luxury cars t
Chapter 1540 Lord Jackson Borges
Noemi didn’t waste any time following her father’s advice and showed up at Sterling Empire headquarters to comfort Matthew.The heir smiled at his friend’s presence and gestured for her to come closer to his desk.Noemi could still sense that Matthew’s smile carried exhaustion or stress. “What happened this time, Matthew?”“A lot of stress regarding this war, my dear friend.” Matthew sighed. “Did you hear about my beach house?”“Shot up for the second time. Is someone who doesn’t like the beach?” Noemi tried to lighten the mood.“It’s someone who doesn’t like Linda Alvares, deciding that she has to pay for something she didn’t do, dragging her into a situation she knows nothing about.” Matthew gave a yellow smile. “But the joke was funny.”“I didn’t just want to make a joke. I’m really worried about you, Matthew.” Noemi took a chance and ran her fingers through his hair.“Thank you. And how about Jackson? How is he?”Noemi felt tense for a few seconds. Why did Matthew want her to talk
Chapter 1539 I’m Just Curious
Hélio was warmly welcomed at the headquarters of Blumberg Appliances. The head of the Borges family was growing in status and recognition. After all, it was his son who brought money into the company thanks to the advertisements.Benny pushed a comfortable chair for Hélio to sit in. Then he moved to the other side of the desk with a subservient posture. It almost looked like Hélio was the boss.“Hélio… I’m calling you by your first name because we consider ourselves friends.” Benny smiled broadly. “I’ve been checking into what you asked me about the last time we played golf. Good game, by the way.”“That’s true.” Hélio smiled as well. “So, is it possible to find out what’s really happening with my family?”Benny leaned forward. “I’ve been asking around. Your suspicions were confirmed: some drug lord nicknamed ‘Lampião’ wants the drug-selling territory where Gustavo Alvares operated. Based on the address you gave me, your old house is located in that territory.”“And Matthew Sterling u
Chapter 1538 Ernesto Must Know Something
“Mr. Sterling, I hope you can understand what I’m about to tell you.” Carvalho looked straight at Karl. He didn’t see much point in giving answers to someone who wasn’t truly interested in listening. “Gustavo Alvares simply refused to reveal who his boss was. However, he agreed to disclose everything else. We made this agreement in writing, everything properly signed, stamped, and formalized with both the Public Defender’s Office and the Prosecutor’s Office. Unless the prisoner has a crisis of conscience, we aren’t allowed to pressure him.”“What the hell?!” Karl made a face, unwilling to understand how the system worked. “Sounds like he’s the one calling the shots.”“Dad, you need to see the whole picture,” Matthew said, as usual understanding and making things easier for the authorities. “I bet Sergeant Carvalho was only able to create this map thanks to Gustavo’s testimony. That’s why I committed to hiding him. If he were still around, his family’s house in Green Coral would defini
Chapter 1537 Who Is the Gang Boss?
It was already lunchtime when Linda woke up and decided to eat right away. Why bother with breakfast if lunch was probably already being served by Gumercindo?She took a shower in Walter’s suite. When she came back wearing a robe, ready to get dressed, she froze.Just looking at the suitcase was enough to bring back the terrifying memories from the day before.Walter walked in and found her like that, lost in thought.“Babe, is everything okay?” He approached her, concerned.“I was thinking about yesterday.” Linda tried to regain her composure.“Sweetheart, you should—”“No, Walt, let me express myself.” Linda shook her head, showing she wasn’t hysterical. “I noticed a detail yesterday and even brought it up with my father.”Linda picked up the suitcase and placed it on the bed. She spoke while opening it and choosing what to wear.“The criminals called out our last name, right? I asked my father if they knew who shot at the beach house.”Walter raised his eyebrows, completely shocked
