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

    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

    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

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 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 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...

    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

He doesn’t trust Vince, he’s never liked him. But... Ernie also wants to keep Bella away from Nathan, so he’ll understand me.”Taking a deep breath, she justified herself. “When everything is resolved, I’ll tell Ernie. That’s right, Paulina, tell him after everything ends the way we want. Not before, or he’ll try to stop me.”Her phone rang, causing Paulina to jump on the sofa. The calm she had managed to achieve vanished like smoke.Checking her phone, she was astonished to see who was calling...“Vince? What do you want now?”“Can we talk?” Vicente was at the Gibraltar Club.“I just got home.

Who could know I was interested?”Andreia had a mental breakthrough, snapping her fingers. “Wait, didn’t you say you asked some dockworkers from Silva Oil Company?”“Yes... Oh my God!” Cindy’s eyes widened. “Do you think I, without realizing it, contacted someone from the gang?”“Definitely, girl! Cindy, you took too much of a risk!” Andreia exclaimed, horrified.“Damn! I thought I was being discreet. But...” Cindy sat back down.Andreia examined the envelope. “No address, of course. Just a note that says ‘Please deliver to the editor-in-chief,’ meaning me.”“Andreia, I’m so sorry to involve you in this. You’re pregnant and can’t be stressed.” Cindy regretted it.Andreia shook her head. “The safety of my employees comes first. Add the fact that you mean more to me than just

    Elaine and Liz continued to discuss their plan. “Did you expect to achieve something after falling onto the coffee table?” Liz asked. Elaine stood up and went to a table where a thermos was placed. While pouring two cups, she replied, “I need to confess something. The whole thing was my idea.” Liz’s eyes widened. “You... planned to fall onto my coffee table?” “It all happened so fast, more of an impulse than a plan,” Elaine responded, approaching her friend with the cups. Liz picked one of the cups, replying, “You were being pulled by the hair by Patricia, caught a glimpse of the coffee table, and decided to throw yourself onto it so that I would think it was Patricia who maliciously threw you onto it. That way, my reaction of horror and outrage would be genuine.” “Exactly, girl. That’s why I winked at you to calm down.” Elaine sat back down, balancing her cup in her left hand. “Elaine, you took a huge risk!” Liz was flabbergasted. “You could have hurt yourself badly, bleed to

I wanted to visit you on Sunday, but I was busy.” Liz pulled out a chair and sat down. “That’s alright. I was discharged; it wasn’t anything serious.” Elaine winked. “Are you sure, friend?” Liz decided to take a chance and asked, “It seemed like I saw you wink at me...” “Yes, I was fine. You were so desperate, thinking I was going to bleed to death.” Elaine was carefree. “That’s what I thought.” Liz calmed down. “Still, I made sure to cause the biggest scene in the clinic’s lobby, blaming Patty for everything.” “And did it work?” Elaine’s eyes sparkled. “Not exactly.” Liz shook her head. “Our husbands showed up and killed my buzz.” Elaine’s excitement faded. “As always, Matt defending that shameless trou

    Silva Oil Company, Ronaldo’s office, around ten in the morning. Jackson explains to Ronaldo why Gustavo might not be suitable to be a model. “Gustavo is trying too hard, insisting too much, being inappropriate. That’s not how things work,” Jackson said with authority. “Take my case: I NEVER thought about being famous. All I wanted was to stay in my corner, posting my routine on social media. The thing is, people who make things happen discovered me, prepared me, and the rest you already know.” “I get it. When it’s meant to happen, it will happen. No rush, no anxiety – and without being a pain in the neck,” Ronaldo laughed. “Did he happen to approach you again?” “Patty ended up talking about Vasconcelos Fabrics, and he had that gleam in his eyes as if we had already made plans!” Jackson exclaimed, exasperated. Ronaldo lost some of his excitement. “Jackson, do you suspect that this Gustavo is getting too close to my fiancée?” “The guy really thinks he’s the best thing since sliced

You just had a seizure and looked like you were going to die in my company,” Leonardo gestured for the employee to sit down. “Now I want to know all the details. Don’t hide anything from this curious old man.” Kirk smiled and sat down. “Well, sir, there’s not much to tell. I was stupid enough to fall for the siren’s song.” “In this case, the cocaine song, right?” Leonardo leaned forward. “What do you intend to do from here on out?” “Obviously, I promised myself and my family that I wouldn’t use that cr*p anymore. It wasn’t worth all the drama and suffering,” Kirk replied honestly. “That’s good. Then you can continue from where you left off,” Leonardo smiled, relieved. “That’s about what I w

A smile formed at the right corner of her mouth. “Cool... nothing so blatantly accusatory, but clear enough for any semi-literate person to understand that Elaine knocked over that pyramid of champagne glasses, causing a scene at the book signing.” “Of course, I won’t say she did it because the honored author was her enemy’s mother,” Cindy replied mischievously. “You don’t want to risk Matt’s wrath.” Andreia stood up, a bit slowly due to her pregnancy. “Speaking of which, how did he react after your dad’s video?” “I didn’t bring it up with him,” Cindy shook her head. “If I mention it, people will say I still love him.” “And you don’t want to do anything to ruin your relationship with Jackson,” Andreia repeated. “Cindy, it’s commendable that you’re more committed and focused on having someone in

What’s new?” Ronaldo replied rudely, “The news is seeing my mother still able to walk!” “RON!” Liz was startled. Fernando shook his head. “Son, don’t be disrespectful. Your mother and I are trying to be as discreet as possible.” Ronaldo shot back, “Just missing discretion when discussing my fiancée, huh? Can we talk about that now?” Liz pursed her lips. “I was so happy when I woke up, but you made sure to ruin my day.” “Mom, we can’t avoid the obvious!” Ronaldo turned to Fernando. “Matt told me that Elaine was reprimanded.” “And I will never agree to that!” Liz shouted. “Elaine was a victim of that tough girl from the slums! She could have died from a cut to her jugular!” “But Elaine provoked Patty’s wrath by saying those nasty things,” Fernando reasoned as he served himself breakfast. “Couldn’t Patricia a

Liz was smiling a little too much, looking like she was about to dance ballet. “Mom! Long time no see!” “Yes, son, I had a wonderful time with your father!” Liz replied suggestively. Ronaldo blushed to the roots of his hair. “Is breakfast ready?” she asked casually. “I was about to check,” Ronaldo said, heading to the kitchen. There, the coffee maker was already brewing coffee. “Nando must have prepared it in advance.” Liz took bread and butter from the fridge. Ronaldo, cautious, sat down at the table. He noticed a tear in Liz’s nightgown. “Mom, did you and Dad make up this Sunday?” “We can say he’s no longer in love with your fiancée,” Liz replied with a mischievous smile. “Mom, stop talking about that disgusting stuff!” Ronaldo frowned. “This is all your sick imagination.” Liz simply shrugged, sitting down at the table as well. “You’r

But when she realized Elaine was going to walk past her, Nayla called out loudly, “ELAINE?” Elaine stopped suddenly and looked at her friend. “Oh, Nayla, I’m sorry...” “Don’t worry. I know you must be going through a lot of pressure.” Nayla stood up. “I really am. But I always have time for my friends.” Elaine smiled and approached, trying to distract her mind. “I wanted to know if there are any openings here at Golden Letters for my brother.” Nayla asked respectfully. Elaine’s smile vanished with the wind. As Nayla’s boss, she knew who the brother was. “Nayla, we’re friends, but you know I have a strong opinion against drug use and sales.” Elaine replied in a boss t
