Chapter 1348 Saving Our Son
Charles swept into the Andrade Clinic, making a beeline for his office. His instincts told him the day’s hot topic was undoubtedly being dissected in Walter’s office down the hall.Moments later, Emmanuelle entered, her face etched with concern.“How was your expedition, darling?”“Bad. Terrible!” Charles snapped, pacing the room impatiently. “I didn’t manage to get Ernesto fired!”Emmanuelle gasped, horrified. “But that’s impossible! The man is guilty of selling drugs on the docks!”“Apparently, due to a ‘lack of evidence’, the company will keep him,” Charles said, collapsing onto the sofa. “At least that’s what old man Silva claimed.”“Did you try reasoning with the younger one, Ron Silva?”Charles let out a dark chuckle. “He was the first person I tried. Believe me, darling, when I say I tried.”“I believe you. You would have no reason to lie.”“And now, what do we do?”Emmanuelle smoothed her skirt, a smug expression crossing her face. “I caught Linda complaining unjustly to Walte
Chapter 1347 Harmful relationship
Charles intercepted Leonardo just as the elderly patriarch was preparing to leave his office.“Mr. Silva? Calling it a day already?”Leonardo paused, his hand hovering over his briefcase. He looked weary. “Mr. Andrade, you know I’m an old man. I need to go home. My grandson is in the building; surely he can assist you.”“Actually,” Charles said, stepping fully into the room and blocking the exit path, “according to Ronaldo himself, only you can help me.”Leonardo raised his eyebrows, his desire to rest battling with his politeness. “What can I do for you?”“Fire Ernesto Alvares. Immediately!”Leonardo blinked, taken aback. “Mr. Andrade, have you lost your mind?”“I can’t believe you would accept drug trafficking in your own port!” Charles retorted with malice.Leonardo wagged his index finger, his expression hardening. “None of that. We don’t tolerate criminality here. That is precisely why Gustavo Alvares is in prison.”“But can you guarantee that such things have stopped? His father
Chapter 1346 A Chosen Side
At the Andrade Clinic, Emmanuelle was relentlessly pressuring her son to fire Linda, her voice full of maternal manipulation.“Mom, you can’t do this to me,” Walter said with bitterness. “I thought you loved me!”“I do love you,” Emmanuelle replied smoothly. “And I want what is best for you.”“By firing Linda?”Emmanuelle smoothed her skirt, her expression the picture of innocence. “I never said that, Walter. You did.”Linda watched the trap snap shut. The realization hit her like a physical blow.“ENOUGH!” The word tore from her throat. “You just said Dr. de Paula shouldn’t be the one fired! Who’s left in the equation, then?”Emmanuelle turned slowly to face Linda, fixing her with a haughty, disdainful glare she usually reserved for the help.“Let me make something very clear, Miss Alvares,” she sneered. “Until you fix this massive problem, you are banned from our estate. Your little sister invaded my home after lunch and was properly shooed away like a stray mutt.”Linda held her br
Chapter 1345 I Need a Barbecue Knife
Jacqueline chatted with Zachary in his suite, which was now hers as well. His walk-in closet had been expanded and sectioned off to accommodate Jacqueline’s clothes and accessories.It was in this very spot that she was venting to her husband.“I can’t agree with this, honey. Never!” Jacqueline exclaimed.“Who would have thought, huh?” Zachary replied.“My parents, caving to pressure that probably hasn’t even happened yet, choosing to believe Linda will harm my brother! No, I have to stand on the side of love and justice!”As she spoke, Jacqueline was hanging up very expensive dresses with palpable anger, shoving the hangers onto the rack. Zachary raised an eyebrow.“Aren’t those dresses expensive?” he asked doubtfully.“Yes, they are,” Jacqueline replied, distracted by her fury. “So, honey, what do I do?”Zachary chuckled. “I think you’ve already done enough: telling your father you bounced on me all week in the Maldives.”Remembering that detail, Jacqueline went “PFFFT” and burst ou
Chapter 1344 Who Did This to You?
Ronaldo returned to his office, still disgruntled by the missed opportunity to fire Ernesto.“Damn it, Grandpa! The perfect chance to get rid of certain people.”He stood by the window, watching the port activity.“I always suspected that bastard. And my father suspected that Gustavo was hitting on Patty. But because of my father’s extreme caution, he injured Ernesto, the man ended up as the victim, and my father was demoralized, accused of loving Patty in secret. Ugh! I will avenge my father and mother, tearing apart the Alvares family!”His cell phone rang.Ronaldo went to the desk to check the device. He didn’t recognize the number calling him.“Hello?”On the other end, Bella was in the Silva Oil Company parking lot with another goal in mind.“Mr. Silva? This is Bella Alvares.”“I don’t know if I can have dealings with you.” Ronaldo narrowed his eyes.“Don’t be a clown!” Bella laughed. “I’m calling you on behalf of my boyfriend, Jorge, for you to appear on our podcast tomorrow.”“
Chapter 1343 Is It Worth Keeping Him?
Ronaldo entered Leonardo’s office, finding his grandfather concentrated on some spreadsheets.He felt his grandson’s presence and lifted his head. “What is it, my boy?”“Grandpa, I want to tell you something. Maybe we need to make a decision afterwards,” Ronaldo announced solemnly.Leonardo felt that the matter was serious and straightened up. “Wow, my boy is acting like a CEO.”“More like COO; I don’t want to overstep my father’s authority,” Ronaldo replied humbly. “As for what has been happening with the Alvares family, it remains for us to decide if it is still worth keeping Ernesto Alvares on as our employee.”Leonardo’s eyes widened at this information.“My grandson...” Leonardo scratched his temple. “Ernesto Alvares is a valuable employee to us.”“Is he? Is it worth keeping an employee after so much controversy involving his son?” Ronaldo leaned against the desk.“I don’t think it’s fair for us to cast doubt on the man’s character because of his son.” Leonardo shook his head.“H
