The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 653 Today Will Be A Great Day
Friday. At the Borges House, Cindy was still deep in thought about what to do regarding the bombshell information Zilda had dropped on her yesterday. Noises from the bathroom indicated Jackson was taking a shower. Cindy paced back and forth, muttering to herself. “What am I going to do... why did Dad agree to something like this? Just when I decided to apologize... but I haven’t been in touch with my parents. It’s their fault; they forced me out of their house. Just because they didn’t want Jackson and me to be in love...” Cindy sat on the bed still in her nightgown. “No, Cindy, you and Jackson also took advantage of their hospitality. Maybe if I talk to him... a commitment agreement, what a joke! As soon as my dad posts that video, Matthew will go after him, demanding the cancellation of the channel! Will my dad be able to handle the pressure, or will he end up revealing his source?” Cindy got up and went to her wardrobe to choose what to wear. “There’s also the added dilemma of
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 654 Sheila’s Kidnapping
Sheila was frightened by the footsteps she heard. She had asked someone to talk to her and give her answers, and now that someone was coming, she was in a panic! What if the person walking towards her didn’t want to talk? “Who is it? Please, someone say something! Do you know who you’re dealing with? My son is going to be very upset!” Sheila began to thrash, but the ropes were strong. The footsteps stopped very close to her. Suddenly, thick hands restrained her. Sheila felt her blindfold being touched. She stopped struggling; maybe someone was going to let her see. Great! Let’s see who the kidnapper is! When the blindfold came off, Sheila found it a bit difficult to see because of the brightness. But her vision seemed to be playing tricks on her! “Huh... What’s going on here... LARRY?” Karl was crouching in front of her. Sheila suddenly smiled. “Larry! You found me! You came to save me! Thank God, I knew you would read my message and then come looking for me!” Karl smiled
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 655 Let’s Tell the Truth
Vicente felt like he was going to have a heart attack when he encountered the one person he least wanted to see. “PAULINA! What do you think you’re doing here?” “Your son gave my daughter the address.” Paulina smiled mischievously. “What do you mean?” Vicente shook his head. “Wait, I think Nate mentioned something about this, but I never thought you’d have the guts to show up!” “I had to come.” Paulina's smile faded. “Please, Vicente, we need to talk, no matter how much we deny it to our children.” “Andreia isn’t here,” Vicente replied tersely. “I know. I’ve been keeping track of you. My phone isn’t the best, but I can watch your videos after the live stream ends,” Paulina responded, trying to create connections — or resurrect ties from the past. Vicente, however, was not open to that. “You’d better leave before—” “Nathan is nearby? Please, Vicente!” Paulina pleaded with her eyes and tense voice. Vicente opened the door wider and let Paulina in, closing it behind her. “I don
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 656 The Slapped Heir
At the Beach House, Vicente and Paulina were talking after many years of separation. But Vicente seemed to dislike the conversation. “Paulina, you must be completely insane!” Vicente roared. “Tell the truth to our children? Is that really what you want?” “It would be best for everyone,” Paulina replied calmly. “Best for who? For my son? Do you really want to go down the path of truth?” Vicente glared at her, with severe suspicion. “And what should that mean?” Paulina asked, deeply offended. “Then tell me the truth that sets us free, Paulina!” Vicente exclaimed ironically. “Confirm to me that Bella is indeed getting close to Nate with the mission of killing him!” Paulina abruptly stood up from the sofa. “But that’s a wild accusation!” “You said you wanted to tell the truth to our children!” Vicente shouted furiously. “So tell me, Paulina! Confirm what I already know! Let’s be open and honest, isn’t that what you want?” Paulina lowered her head, embarrassed. “I can’t do that, Vi

Andreia is in her office at Urbano Magazine. She tries to focus on her tasks, but the conversation she had with Nathan yesterday has left her thoughtful and distracted.“Nathan gave the beach house address to the Alvares couple. Would they dare?”The door to her office opened, and Vicente entered.“Darling, what happened?” Andreia stood up, noticing her husband’s shocked expression. “You look like you’ve seen a ghost!”“Yes, dear, I did!” Vicente exclaimed, horrified. “A ghost from our past!”“I’m almost afraid to ask for more details...” Andreia stepped back.Vicente sat down in a chair, taking a deep breath. “She showed up at the beach house.”Andreia’s eyes went wide. She had just been thinking about...“Paulina?”“Exactly,” Vicente confirmed.“But what does she want?” Andreia exclaimed, horrified.“Don’t you get it? It seems Bella gave her mother our address.” Vicente sighed, trying to calm down.“She gave it to ‘her mother’? Ernesto didn’t show up?” Andreia frowned.“He doesn’t k
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 658 The Commercial
At the docks of Silva Oil Company, the commercial proposed by the Silva family was being filmed.Patricia spoke in front of a camera with the most charismatic smile in the world, “Silva Oil Company is also a company concerned about environmental issues. The company has a monitoring team that conducts relentless inspections on the vessels and platforms located offshore. Since its founding, there has not been a single ecological accident. Our beaches and our sea, along with marine life, are safe.”In another corner, Jackson posed wearing the company uniform, surrounded by barrels and containers.Someone from wardrobe and makeup had to improvise some stains to give Jackson the appearance of a tireless and fearless worker.Some dockworkers were chosen to pose with Jackson, but Gustavo, frowning, approached Ronaldo to talk about it.“My fiancée is doing really well, Cindy,” Ronaldo said with unmistakable passion. “I hope you remain neutral in this aspect.”“I told you, Ron. I intend to wri
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 659 An Unusual Dating Request
The filming for the commercial wrapped up. There wasn’t much to do: Patricia had memorized her lines quickly and managed to deliver what the director wanted in two takes.“I’m very satisfied with both of you,” he said. “This week we’ll return with everything edited and polished. Where do you want to promote the commercial?”“We’ll first spread it on social media,” Ronaldo replied, wrapping his arm around Patricia, smiling. “Then, I’ll want it on TV.”Patricia and Jackson exchanged astonished glances. Cindy didn’t react as if it were something shocking.“OK, wait for the final result. See you soon!”The director turned to the crew that was dismantling the equipment and set.Patricia and Jackson hugged.“Way to go, sis! We’re going to be on television!”“This is so exciting, especially for you, Jackson!”Ronaldo kindly chimed in, “Not just for Jackson, dear. You also deserve all the glory and fame.”“Hmm... I don’t want to be too arrogant.” Patricia broke the hug and turned to her fianc
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 660 The Police Promise to Redeem Themselves
At the Blue Cove police station, Matthew was causing quite a stir with his accusation that the homicide department had been negligent and remiss in assisting Sheila. The door to Carvalho’s office opened. The sergeant gave a slight smile upon seeing who was causing such a commotion. “Mr. Sterling, please follow me to my office.” “Sergeant Carvalho, good to see you!” Matthew formed a smile with his lips that was not one of joy. Evan felt chills down his spine when Matthew smiled that way. Both entered Sergeant Carvalho’s office, leaving the other officers stunned. “Did I hear you right?” Carvalho asked as he walked to his desk. “Your mother, Mrs. Sheila Sterling, has been kidnapped and no one was aware?” “That’s what we suspect,” Evan replied in a low tone. Matthew dragged a chair and sat across from him. “Sergeant, I can’t understand. My mother was kidnapped yesterday, and her boyfriend found her in captivity this morning. She was abducted in the parking lot of his building. Th

Chapter 840 Gustavo Resigns
Nathan and Elaine met in the lobby of the Andrade clinic. “We got lucky that Linda hasn’t shown up yet,” Elaine commented. “Let’s go inside.” Nathan nodded toward the reception desk. They headed over. Nathan confirmed the exam performed, and Linda’s colleague at the reception allowed them access. With that, Nathan went to the lab to get the DNA test results. Moments later, they were leaving the clinic, heading toward his new car. “My dad bought this car for me,” Nathan explained. “And to think that my previous one was wrecked in the accident... the accident with my half-sister.” Nathan disarmed the alarm. They both got in. Nathan handed the envelope to Elaine while turning on the air conditioning. “You have the honor.” Elaine opened the envelope, removed the document, and went straight to the last page. In a measured voice, she announced, “Nate... you’re right. You and Bella... are half-siblings.” Nathan held his breath, and his expression hardened. He gripped the steering
Chapter 839 An Irresistible Proposal?
Elaine, at the kitchen table, had just finished breakfast, still thinking about her conversation with Matthew. “Something’s wrong, I can’t pinpoint it.” Elaine murmured to herself, very suspicious. “He didn’t say at any point that he loved me.” Determined, she picked up her phone and dialed a number. At the beach house, Nathan answered from his room. He was wearing dress pants and choosing a dress shirt when the phone rang. “Hello, sweetheart.” “Nate, I’m glad you picked up. Can you talk?” Elaine asked anxiously. “Yes, but I need to go to the Andrade Clinic to get the DNA test.” “What risk are you taking by doing that test where Bella’s sister works!” Elaine exclaimed. “Don’t worry, we’ve managed to be discreet.” Nathan smiled. “Anyway, I wanted to tell you something strange.” Elaine recounted, “Matt came here early, saying he’s willing to give our marriage a second chance.” Nathan held his breath, narrowing his eyes. Then he asked point-blank, “Does he want to give a chanc
Chapter 838 Relentless in Uncovering the Truth
Elaine was stunned. Matthew was so determined to get rid of her... And Matthew also felt that something was wrong with Elaine, who wasn’t grabbing this opportunity with both hands... “Matt, are you playing with me? Mental traps?” Elaine broke the embarrassing silence. “How can you think I’m joking? Do I look like I’m joking?” Matthew was indignant. Elaine let out an ironic laugh. “You kicked me out of the mansion and outright said our marriage was over. Now you want me to come back?” “I want to solve the problem we’re in and avoid future issues,” Matthew replied solemnly. Elaine shook her head. “No. You don’t want me to regret what I did because you love me and are willing to forgive me. You want me to continue being your wife, but without love.” “Elaine, wasn’t that what you wanted?” Matthew asked with slight irritation. “I want to love you! I want to live in a marriage with love! But you were the one who kicked me out of your life, saying I wasn’t qualified!” Elaine shouted.
Chapter 837 A Week Full of News
Monday, another workday. Also a day of certain revelations. At the beach house, Nathan paced back and forth, deep in thought about two situations. Especially the second situation: what he read in Elaine and Matthew’s divorce agreement... Andreia came from the kitchen, noticing Nathan like this. “Son, is everything alright? You seem... well, restless.” “I’m wonderfully fine, Mom.” Nathan tried to mask his anxiety. “Is the coffee ready?” “Yes, and I intended to call you for us to eat. Is your dad still getting dressed?” “Yes, and I don’t even know for what.” Nathan narrowed his eyes, looking at the closed door of his parents’ bedroom. “He’s taking care of his concert, knowing you have other things on your mind,” Andreia replied kindly, rubbing her belly. A notification from Nathan’s phone caught his attention. He checked the device... ...And smiled triumphantly. “Was it what you were hoping for?” Andreia asked. “Yes. The DNA test results are out. I can pick them up at any ti
Chapter 836 Clean Up Your Mess
Jarbas opened the door of Sterling Mansion for Bryce. “Hello, good afternoon, Young Mr. Hudson,” Jarbas greeted him respectfully. “Did you come to speak with Mr. Sterling?” “Yes, I think he needs moral support after that bombshell press conference.” Bryce stepped inside. “Is he here?” “No, Young Mr. Sterling has already gone to work. Indeed, he came to rest after the press conference, and other friends have been here.” “Oh, what a shame!” Bryce shook his hands as if fanning himself. “It’s hot today, and the air conditioning in my car isn’t working.” “Would you like to cool off a bit in the living room?” Jarbas felt sorry for Bryce having made a wasted trip. “I’ll bring you some nice chilled lemonade. Maybe Young Matthew will surprise us or his mother.” “Yeah, who knows?” Bryce smiled faintly. “But I don’t intend to stay long.” Bryce was led to the living room. Jarbas pointed to the sofa and discreetly withdrew. “What a pity, I thought Matt would take the day off.” Bryce sat d
Chapter 835 You Lied to Me
At Sterling Cultural Hall, Bryce was having fun watching his father and Karl always evasive and suspicious when he questioned their friendship. He decided to be bolder this time. “Okay, I’m not going to be prejudiced. We know times have changed, and—” “Prejudiced about what, son?” Edmund asked, already tasting bitterness on his tongue. “Huh...” Bryce held back a laugh. “I thought you two actually...” Bryce gestured ‘wedding ring on finger,’ causing disgust in Edmund and Karl. “NO!” Karl clutched his stomach, feeling nauseous. “We are not a couple!” “Well, come on: tell me what’s going on!” Bryce suddenly became serious. “Bryce, when you stop trying to eavesdrop on our conversations from behind the door, you’ll be happier and stop feeling like you’re in a spy movie.” Edmund tried to deflect, pushing his son out of the office. “This won’t stay like this. I’m going to find out what’s going on, even if it costs me my life!” Bryce grew tired of the games and decided to leave, slamm
Chapter 834 Expected Reaction
At Sterling Cultural Hall, Karl was talking to Edmund, also holding Vicente’s repertoire list as if it were trash. “What ridiculous songs!” Karl finally threw the list to the ground. “We need to check if any of these songs can be played without copyright issues.” Edmund raised his eyebrows. “Copyright issues for Mozart songs?” “You never know.” Karl smiled mischievously. “It’s important to know.” Edmund stood up from the desk. “Anyway, how are we going to face that crook?” Karl kept smiling. “Leave him to me. We’re going to prepare a little surprise.” Edmund didn’t want to be left in the dark. “Oh, from that mischievous smile of yours, you’re going to pull off some sabotage and humiliate the arrogant musician live, aren’t you?” “Well, if you’re already guessing the plan, I don’t need to fill you in on the details...” Karl teased. Bryce appeared in the doorway of Edmund’s office. But upon seeing once again the close camaraderie between Edmund and Karl, he became intrigued and s
Chapter 833 Conversation of Future Divorcees
After his nap, Vicente left the house and headed to the Sterling Cultural Hall. Smiling excessively, he presented himself at Edmund’s office, extending a printed sheet in Arial font. Edmund took a while to pick up the sheet as if it were covered in feces. “What is this?” Edmund asked sourly. “My repertoire list,” Vicente exclaimed excitedly. “You’ll need this, I suppose.” “Yes, we’ll need it. But I wanted to use this sheet as toilet paper.” Edmund carelessly left the paper on the desk. Vicente chuckled. “Heh, heh... come on, have a sense of humor, Edmund! You’re doing the right thing by allowing my concert!” “You know I could call Matt right now and let him know, right?” Edmund raised his voice. “But you won’t do that,” Vicente shook his index finger. “You won’t add another burden on Matt’s shoulders. He just came out of a press conference and has to deal with a crazy, hysterical wife. I can only imagine how much she’ll demand for divorce alimony...” “Why don’t you ask that a
Chapter 832 Looks Like I’ll Have to Form the Partnership
Moments later, Karl was in his office dealing with takeout containers containing his lunch: Thai food. He didn’t even have the energy to go out to a restaurant after the bitter conversation he had with Matthew. With the phone to his ear, Karl was waiting to be answered. On the other end, at Siren restaurant, Sheila picked up while enjoying her meatballs. “Hello, sweetheart? Are you going to meet me at Siren?” “No, darling, I’m so sorry. I ordered takeout and I’m eating in my office.” Karl made a pitying face. “Hey, did we agree to have lunch together today?” Sheila smiled understandingly. “No, but since you called me at this hour, I thought you were planning to come. Anyway, how can I help you?” “I’m afraid I’ll ruin your appetite.” Karl began. Sheila chuckled. “Their meatballs are delicious today. Nothing you say is going to ruin my experience.” “Not even if I told you that Matt has been lying about the car accident that Nathan and Miss Alvares had?” Karl went straight for th
