The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 570 I Like It, But Not At All
Inside the Álvarez family home, Paulina was busy sweeping the living room when Gustavo and Ernesto appeared, both dressed in their Silva Oil Company uniforms.“I checked Bella’s room,” Paulina said. “She’s still sleeping.”Gustavo glanced at her with a smirk. “Did you check for any traces of other guys?”Paulina, taken aback, looked flustered. “No, son, gross! I’m not going to smell your sister’s sheets; I’ll just throw them straight into the washing machine.”Ernesto chuckled, planting a quick kiss on her cheek. “That’s the way to do it, dear. Come on, son, let’s go.”Before they left, Paulina hesitated for a moment. “Ernie, were you serious about wanting to meet Young Mr. Andrade up close?”“Why not?” Ernesto replied nonchalantly. “They’re dating, aren’t they? She’s already stayed in his sister’s room, like they’re great friends.”“Yes, that’s happened twice,” Paulina nodded, then added, “But Marilza Peres mentioned in her column that Miss Andrade is dating Zach Loss. They hosted a
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 571 Patricia Is Introduced to Silva Oil Company
At the Silva Oil Company docks, a crowd had gathered in the early morning. Ronaldo stood on a stack of crates used for transporting oil drums, holding a megaphone. Patricia, wearing a dark green pantsuit, stood beside him, smiling.“Everyone!” Ronaldo called out, his voice amplified by the megaphone. “It is my immense pleasure to introduce you to the future Mrs. Silva and your potential boss: Patricia Borges!”The employees responded with enthusiastic applause, clearly impressed.Ronaldo continued, “We don’t yet know what Patricia will be doing here, but she will be more present from now on. Please cooperate with her and show her respect!”“Yes, Mr. Silva!” the employees shouted back in unison.Handing the megaphone to Patricia, Ronaldo stepped back as she addressed the crowd. “I am very honored,” she began, her voice filled with warmth. “My father, Hélio Borges, worked hard on these docks and is now happily retired. I know many of you are my former neighbors from Lion’s Den. Silva Oi
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 572 His Lust or His Son’s Sanity
Inside the Andrade Clinic reception, the morning sun cast a soft glow across the room. Linda leaned toward Jacqueline, her voice low with frustration.“Has Walter been avoiding me because of what Bella did to Zachary and me?”Jacqueline hesitated, clearly unsure of how to respond. “Linda,” she began carefully, “Walt doesn’t blame you for that.”Linda’s eyes narrowed. “Really? Then why hasn’t he called me? Did he come in early today just to avoid seeing me?”“Don’t think like that,” Jacqueline reassured her. “Maybe he plans to talk to you today.”Linda’s gaze sharpened, probing for the truth. “But that’s it, isn’t it...?”Jacqueline sighed, unable to keep it in any longer. “Okay, fine, but don’t get mad. Walt’s discouraged because of the photo.”Linda’s voice rose in disbelief. “That’s absurd! I can’t be held responsible for what Bella did when I didn’t even know about it!”Jacqueline tried to comfort her. “He loves me, Linda. I’m his little sister, his beloved.”Linda scoffed. “But no
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 573 Time to Sort Things Out
Inside Walter's office at the Andrade Clinic, Linda and Walter stepped in, both with serious expressions. Walter closed the door behind them and gestured towards a seat.“Make yourself comfortable,” he said calmly.Linda, restless, shook her head. “I don’t know if I can sit still.”Walter, trying to maintain his composure, replied, “This conversation might take some time.”“I don’t see what could take so long to explain your disappearance,” Linda shot back, her voice sharp.Walter hesitated and then sighed. “It’s not that simple…”Linda, growing impatient, decided to cut through the awkwardness. “I’ll spare you the details, Walt. Jacqueline told me what my sister did.”Walter swallowed hard and took a step closer to her. “Do you understand why I was upset?”Linda crossed her arms, still frustrated. “Not really. I wasn’t involved in that photo stunt.”Walter’s voice softened. “But it was the night we were having dinner for the Loss family, celebrating Jacque and Zach’s relationship. Wh
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 574 Bella’s Boss
In Walter’s office at the Andrade Clinic, the expectation between him and Linda was palpable. He had her by the shoulders, his hands slowly sliding down her arms, pulling her closer.The intensity in their eyes seemed to soften as the moment stretched.“Walter, what do you want from me?” Linda asked, her voice barely above a whisper.“Your forgiveness,” he replied, searching her face, “and your love.”Linda hesitated. “Do you really love me, Walt?”Walter, a bit taken aback, tried to lighten the mood. “Hey, did you really think I treated you like a prostitute that day?”Linda averted her eyes, her voice quieter now. “I shouldn’t have given in to my impulses so easily.”Flashing a playful smile, Walter leaned in. “You sure enjoyed crying and moaning in my car for hours, admit it.”She blushed, but there was still pain in her tone. “That’s why I thought we were going to have something lasting...”He took her hands in his, sincerity evident in his voice. “If you forgive me, we will. And
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 575 Talking Bull About Patricia
Inside the Silva penthouse, the lack of what to do between Liz and Elaine is glaring as they sit in the living room that morning, their conversation filled with absurd theories about Patricia.Liz, astonished, exclaims, “Elaine, how dangerous! Why do you allow yourself to be subjected to such nonsense?”Elaine, feeling offended, retorts, “I allow myself? How about your nephew blocking that b*tch’s phone for a change?”With calm defiance, Liz responds, “He would never do such a thing.”Elaine sighs, “I asked Sheila for help, but she refused, saying it’s all in my head.”Sarcastically, Liz comments, “Wait, didn’t you two make a truce?”Elaine shrugs. “Who understands… I’m really scared, Liz.”Liz, ever the problem-solver, suggests, “OK, let’s team up to expose Patricia.”Elaine shakes her head, as if Liz is missing the point. “It’s not about exposing Patricia. EVERYONE knows who she is. They just refuse to acknowledge the danger.”Liz, her mind churning, says thoughtfully, “If they refu

Walter sat alone in his office, dealing with the mundane task of administrative paperwork. Despite the boredom, he wore a wide smile — the unmistakable grin of someone in love. Just then, Charles entered the room and immediately noticed.“I’ve never seen anyone work with that smile!” Charles laughed, taking in his son’s expression.Walter stopped typing and looked up. “Dad, come here. I’ve got some news for you.”Charles pulled up a chair, intrigued. “What is it?”“I’m going to meet Linda’s parents,” Walter announced, his excitement clear.Charles raised an eyebrow as he sat down. “I thought that would only happen when you were officially dating, like Zach and Jacque.”“We’re not officially dating yet,” Walter admitted, “but we’ve already talked about the honeymoon.”Charles smiled mischievously. “Son, I heard that the night we had dinner, you had Linda crying and grinding her teeth in your room nonstop.”Walter’s face flushed with shock. “You heard? Oh, Gumercindo...”Charles chuckle
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 577 Linda vs Bella, Again
Linda stepped out of the Andrade Clinic, descending the stairs, only to spot her sister Bella approaching the entrance. Without hesitation, she grabbed Bella’s arm.“Oh, there you are! We’re talking now!” Linda insisted.Bella squirmed, pulling back. “Let go of me, LET GO! Help!”The nearby passersby and a few nurses glanced over, clearly suspicious at the scene.Linda noticed and quickly reassured them with a smile. “She’s my sister, don’t worry!”Recognizing the sisterly banter, the onlookers relaxed and carried on. Bella, however, was less amused, rolling her eyes.“Are you really not going to tell them today that I’m an HIV patient?” Bella muttered.Linda crossed her arms, unfazed. “No, I’m going to tell them the next time you’re scheming against Jacqueline Andrade, my bosses’ daughter!”Bella’s expression shifted from irritation to shock. “How did you find that out?”Linda smirked. “Wasn’t I supposed to find out?”“Never!” Bella defended, flustered. “I wanted Zach back!

Silva Oil Company, Leonardo's office, afternoon.Fernando faces harsh accusations of wanting to seduce his future daughter-in-law, trampling over his own son if necessary.“Dad, may I ask you something?” Fernando narrowed his eyes.“Yes, son.” Leonardo crossed his fingers, leaning back against his chair's backrest.“Do you trust me?”“FERNANDO!” Marta exclaimed in horror.“Don’t worry, Marta.” Leonardo gestured to his shocked wife.“I can’t believe this conversation is going to help us at all!” Marta objected.“Mom, I need to know if I can count on my family if this goes to court and makes it to the media.” Fernando steeled himself. “If my family decides to believe these slanders, then I don’t know how I’m going to get through this trial alone.”Marta clutched Fernando’s shirt. “You are not alone in this! We believe in you because you’re opening your heart to us.”Leonardo took his time to be moved. “Son, we won’t win if you have any percentage of guilt in this matter. We need to be h
Chapter 882 Two Tense Conversations
At Sterling Empire headquarters, two tense conversations were taking place. The first occurred in Matthew’s office. Walter entered, serious and intimidating – not to our hero. Matthew closed the door. “Well, well... we’re all frowns today, huh?” “Matt, you’re going to stop joking when you tell me what’s going on around here.” Walter retorted sternly. Matthew dropped his smile. “Walt, what’s got you all worked up? Did I do something to you?” “Tell me, Matt!” Walter asserted, sitting on the couch. “What do you want me to say?” Matthew crossed his arms. “Did you have anything to do with Bella Alvares?” Walter narrowed his gaze. He managed to discern a hint of discomfort on Matthew’s face. Something inside him grew tense. Walter smiled smugly. “Yes, you did.” “Walt, you barged in here practically barking and recounting what happened backwards. I know you love Linda Alvares, so I believe the conversation—” “Matt, my future sister-in-law is accusing you of forcing her to cling to
Chapter 881 Jackson Needed to Exercise
At Andrade Clinic, Paulina appeared in the lobby with the biggest smile in the world. However, she couldn’t understand why her two daughters were distant and sullen. Linda was at the counter, focused on the computer, while Bella sat in the waiting area. “Girls! Put a smile on your faces!” Bella and Linda turned to their mother. Paulina continued, “Today, your father is coming home.” “Great, Mom!” Linda smiled and walked over to Paulina. Bella remained seated. Could Ernesto really be her father? Paulina, sensing what her youngest daughter was thinking, turned to her. “Come on, Bella. I won’t allow any stress during this delicate time. I even called Mr. Motta to have him come by tomorrow.” “Alright, Mom.” Bella got up. At least she is sure she came out of Paulina’s womb! ****** Patricia and Ronaldo were having lunch at Siren Restaurant. Even among several patrons, both felt as if they were dining alone, in a romantic setting. “Feeling better, my dear?” Ronaldo asked. “I
Chapter 880 Our Friendship Depends on the Truth
Walter felt cornered by Bella’s pertinent question about maintaining his friendship with Matthew after learning that he attempted to kill someone. “I plan to talk to him first.” The response came out evasively. “HAH!” Bella pointed a finger in Walter’s face. “You’re not going to do anything! You’re going to cover up your best friend’s atrocities because he’s the most powerful guy in town! Coward!” “BELLA, THAT’S ENOUGH!” Linda kicked Walter’s desk. “We’re not to blame if you slept with Nathan without knowing he could be our half-brother. If you weren’t the same cheap promiscuous as always, Matthew wouldn’t have chosen you to get Nathan drunk and encourage him to drive, causing the accident!” “Oh, great, it’s always my fault, right? You, Linda, have always been the saintly and perfect sister!” Bella deflected the issue, blinded by rage. “I’m not talking about sainthood or comparing myself,” Linda explained. “I’m making you understand that part of this mess is yours. And even if we
Chapter 879 I Won’t Accept Crocodile Tears
At Andrade Clinic, the tense conversation between Linda, Bella, and Walter continued. Bella didn’t want to be left out of Nathan’s revenge. “Linda, have some respect. Nate may be your half-brother; remember that.” Walter frowned. “Didn’t you do any conclusive tests?” “No, I didn’t take any strand of hair from my parents!” Bella replied exasperatedly. “Since you were so eager to discover the truth, that’s what you should’ve done. The job was half-done!” Linda scoffed. Bella crossed her arms. “You just wanted more data to snoop around!” “Bella, don’t you understand yet? I am your sister!” “And does that give you the right to invade my privacy?” Bella screamed. “If it’s to protect our family, YES!” Linda thundered. Walter stepped between the two young ladies. “Wait, I don’t want a fight here.” “There’s nothing to fight, discuss, or talk about,” Bella announced fiercely. “Matthew Sterling will pay for cornering me and forcing that car accident to happen. He knew the truth all al
Chapter 878 Focusing on What Concerns Her
Silva Oil Company, Ronaldo’s office. Ronaldo anxiously awaited Patricia’s arrival. Leonardo and Marta were with him, standing, also with apprehension on their faces. The door opened, and Patricia entered. “I’m here.” “Patty, my love!” Ronaldo hugged her tightly. “What’s wrong, Ron?” Patricia reacted emotionally to this gesture. “How good it is to know that you still love me!” Ronaldo replied, not wanting to let Patricia go. Leonardo and Marta felt their hearts melt at this lovely scene. “Is it going to be like this all the time when you two are living in our mansion?” Marta asked playfully. Patricia broke the hug. “It will always be like this because we’ll always be together. I don’t understand the reason for your declaration, dear.” Ronaldo replied seriously, “After the press conference, I thought you were going after Matt.” “And I was.” Ronaldo felt his blood boil, although on the outside, he struggled to show self-control. “Why would you do something like that, dear gra

Urbano Magazine, Cindy’s office, morning. Cindy and Jackson observe an intrigued Patricia looking at her cellphone screen. “Patty, what happened?” Jackson approached her. “Big bro, Ronaldo texted me.” Patricia lifted her head, looking at him. “They’re really upset because Elaine talked about Liz being bedridden from a stroke.” Cindy scratched her neck. “Speaking of which, why was the topic kept under wraps?” Patricia pursed her lips. “They wanted to avoid answering WHY Liz had the stroke.” Jackson smiled playfully. “I see. Darling, have you thought carefully about what I said?” Patricia looked deeply at Jackson. “I still disagree that Matt has to sacrifice his happiness for us. We know how to defend ourselves, for crying out loud!” Jackson shook his head. “That’s no longer your concern. Your concern now is this message from your fiancé.” Cindy added, “He needs you right now, Patty.” Patricia thought it over. Choosing to talk to Matthew or Ronaldo... “I love Ron, and he’s my
