The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 691 Who Knocked Over the Glasses?
At the Andrade Mansion, Linda and Jacqueline found it unlikely that Bella would sacrifice what she wanted.“Gus, excuse me, but are we talking about the same Bella?” Linda scratched her neck.“Linda, you don’t believe because you weren’t there to see it,” Gustavo asserted. “But it’s true! She announced to me and our parents that she would end her fling with Nathan if it means you can live in peace and safety!”“That would be too good!” Jacqueline admitted.Charles frowned. “Why would Vicente Gouveia do something like that, bothering Linda?”Linda sat down on another sofa. “He was very disturbed, Charles. He was talking nonsense... I was even scared.”“Oh, dear...” Jacqueline sat beside her. “Walt didn’t show up?”“One of my colleagues messaged or called his desk. Walt showed up, and the crazy pianist left.”Gustavo added, “Is it true he accused Bella of being hired by someone to kill Nathan?”Linda remembered Walter. “Yes. He said Matthew Sterling hired our sister to act as a black wi
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 692 Doing Good for Her Future Family
“How dare you think something like that about your nephew?” Ernesto shook his head. “From everything I’ve read and seen about Matthew Sterling, he would be incapable of doing something like that. People like your nephew would have the Bento family at their disposal.”“You know about the Bento family, huh?” Vicente mocked.“Hey, don’t give me ideas.” Ernesto crossed his arms. “I don’t want to resolve things that way.”“OK, let’s handle this civilly.” Vicente sat down on the couch.Ernesto remained standing. “You understand, Vince, that this kind of accusation can’t be proven, right?”“Of course, Matt has been getting more and more powerful. No one will dare investigate anything.”“Do you really believe he tried to kill Nate?” Ernesto felt like he was staring at a madman. “I think you’ve been getting too much sun on your head.”Vicente, on the other hand, was conflicted inside. How was he going to say that he was following this intuition thanks to what Karl said?He would have to reveal
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 693 Family Concern
Sterling Mansion, Saturday afternoon.Jarbas appeared in the foyer, with the doorbell ringing. He already knew who it was.As he opened the door, Fernando, Leonardo, and Marta entered.“Good afternoon, Silva family.”“Where is my daughter?” Marta asked anxiously.“Mrs. Sterling is in the living room.” Jarbas pointed in that direction.“Thank you!” Leonardo dashed off toward there.In the living room, Sheila was calmly sipping a cup of fennel tea. She choked on the suddenness of everyone entering.“DAUGHTER!”“PFFF... Cough, cough...” Sheila nearly dropped the cup.Fernando and Marta sat on either side of her on the couch.“Daughter, we heard about the kidnapping and came to see you!” Marta exclaimed horrified.“Are you okay? Have you reported the criminals to the police?” Fernando asked, extremely worried.“Calm down, everyone!” Sheila smiled. “I’m perfectly fine, thank God.”“Why didn’t you tell us?” Leonardo kissed his daughter’s cheek.“Dad, I didn’t want you to react like this, sc
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 694 Cindy Learned to Defend Herself
The Silva family rejoices at Sheila’s announcement of dating Karl (whom everyone has been calling Lawrence). Marta hugs her daughter. “OH, my dear daughter! Congratulations! What a romantic way to start a relationship!” “Being kidnapped?” Fernando joked. “Come on...” Sheila pretended to be offended. “Well, you know what that means.” “What?” Leonardo asked. Sheila breaks the hug and leans back on the couch. “I’ll have to drop the Sterling surname and leave this mansion.” Marta shrugs. “That’s the best thing you can do. Except for your son, nobody who lives here likes you.” Sheila looks at the portrait of Karl with longing. “But loving Karl is what made it worth it.” Fernando leans forward. “We miss him so much, sis, but life must go on. I’m glad you allowed yourself this chance.” “Thanks, Nando. Having your support is essential.” “And are you going to meet his family?” Marta smiled as she asked. “Larry said his parents live in Europe.” “WOW! They must be as rich as we are,”
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 695 Excuses to See Patricia?
Cardoso Family House.Zilda rushed into the studio where Germano was rising from his desk.“You’re an IMBECILE!” Zilda shouted at the top of her lungs.Germano was taken aback. “What in the world is this about?”“You seriously insinuated that the Borges family is involved with the drug-dealing gang!” Zilda slammed the door shut.“Why are you so surprised? You knew I was going to do this.” Germano tried to deflect.Zilda grabbed her husband by the sleeve of his shirt. “Wrong! I knew the witches told you to hold your fire for now! You purposely hid from me that they called you again authorizing the slander for today’s video!”Germano freed himself from Zilda’s grip. “It would be much better if you didn’t meddle in my affairs.”“You are my husband, YOU ARE my affair, for crying out loud!”The doorbell rang, and the front door was knocked on at the same time.“See, there we go! Go face the wrath of the Borges family!” Zilda exclaimed sarcastically. “Where are the witches with the ‘Commitm
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 696 Plotting with Inertia
Germano didn’t know if he could face the fury of two men. One of them was Germano’s age but clearly stronger.“Are you two going to hit me now?” He tried to buy time. “Great! I was hoping to make some money from the lawsuit I’ll file if either of you touches me.”“I think the ones who are going to make money will be us!” Jackson mocked.“Why do you think you can gain anything?” Germano smiled sarcastically. “I haven’t committed any crime.”Hélio pointed a finger. “You insinuated that my sons have something to do with the drug abuse happening in Lion’s Den! And you even involved a poor kid who’s recovering in the hospital!”“Who cares about that junkie?” Germano shrugged. “As for the insinuation, come on, have a sense of humor! It was just a joke, a sarcastic remark. I didn’t accuse anyone of any crime.”Jackson shook his head. “You either don’t understand or pretend not to understand. I watched your stupid video. Your ‘joke’ is going to make a lot of people criticize and chase my sist
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 697 It’s Going to Take a Lot More to Defeat My Children
Silva Penthouse, Saturday afternoon, almost dusk. Patricia was tired of being accused of being an immoral girl and snapped at Elaine, exploding in fury. She grabbed Elaine by the hair, lifting her off the couch to slap her. However, in the commotion and heat of the moment, Elaine glanced at the coffee table and thought it would be a good idea to throw herself onto it. The result could be nothing else. “WATCH OUT!” “ELAINE!” CRASH! Elaine’s body smashed not only the coffee table but also the tea set that she and Liz used. Patricia’s fury lessened when she saw her enemy sprawled on the floor. She had her left hand raised to slap Elaine, but suddenly... ...She fell? How? “I don’t remember pulling her that hard or even to the left!” echoed in Patricia’s mind. Liz quickly grabbed her phone. “No one touch Elaine! We don’t want to make her situation worse! I’m already calling the clinic!” Ronaldo pulled Patricia away. “Honey, what did you do?” “I didn’t pull her onto the coffe
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 698 Nathan “Meets” His Uncle
Nathan visited Karl’s apartment, but he didn’t know if he was visiting his uncle or the PR of Golden Letters. “Wait a minute... I know you!” “Looks like your mother forgot to mention that detail.” Karl closed the door. “You’re the PR of Golden Letters. I saw your picture online. But how is it that—” “With everyone thinking I’m dead, no one bothers to make the connection.” Karl pointed to the sofa. “This is unbelievable.” Nathan sat down. “You’ve been around for months!” “I have. In fact, I got to say goodbye to my parents before they went on their vacation.” Karl added, sitting in the armchair. “Oh, so they know too... their vacation turned permanent, huh?” “My dad worked his ass off and expected me to take the reins.” Karl started, hinting at what had happened. Nathan sighed, steeling himself. He was here; now he couldn’t back down. “Uncle Karl, first of all, I want to say I’m sorry for what happened.” “Nathan, let me make it clear that I won’t hold you accountable for the

Chapter 955 Your Half-Sisters
At the Andrade Clinic in Walter’s office, the confrontation between Linda and Nathan continued, the atmosphere tense and electric.Walter stepped protectively beside Linda. “Hey, what’s the meaning of this? You don’t recognize me as your brother-in-law? What a joke.”Nathan sneered. “Linda, if you can’t have a frank conversation without your little boyfriend defending you all the time—”“I can,” Linda snapped, cutting him off. “But right now, I don’t WANT to. This is his office, not yours!”“You’re hanging by a thread from being sued for breach of confidential information,” Nathan shot back venomously. “And you guys still act like a cocky little rooster and hen!”Linda let out a mocking laugh. “Is that what you came here to talk about?”“Exactly!” Nathan said, jabbing a finger in the air. “Why the hell did you get involved in something that’s none of your business?”Walter was about to speak, but Linda grabbed the sleeve of his shirt — a silent signal for him to let her handle it.“Na
Chapter 954 Nice Try
Tiffany approached her junior boss as Maurício walked away.“Nice try,” Bryce muttered.Feigning innocence, Tiffany widened her eyes. “What are you talking about?”Bryce smirked knowingly. “If that guy were your boyfriend, you would’ve kissed him on the mouth. That little sisterly peck didn’t fool me.”Tiffany blinked, realizing she was up against a sly fox!******Meanwhile, at Andrade Clinic that same afternoon, Walter sat across from Linda, who seemed uncharacteristically relieved.“What are you asking about, Walt?” Linda said, trying to sound casual.Walter leaned in, scrutinizing her. “I could’ve sworn I saw you sigh with relief when Dr. de Paula left.”“Don’t swear in vain — it’s a sin,” Linda retorted, dodging.Walter moved closer and pulled her into an embrace, but Linda stiffened, feeling like she was betraying herself.“Come on, sweetheart. Don’t exaggerate,” Walter coaxed. “Were you embarrassed for being too informal with the new general practitioner?”Staring into the dist
Chapter 953 Struggling to Call Him Father
Patricia found Vanda sitting patiently on one of the chairs inside Karl’s office at Golden Letters.She leaned her head into the doorway. “Mom?”Vanda turned to look at her, her face lighting up. “Good afternoon, darling. I’m just waiting for Lawrence to show up.”Smiling, Patricia stepped closer. “Ron had a wonderful idea earlier. I hope you’ll agree with it.”Vanda’s eyes sparkled with curiosity. “I’m already agreeing!”“He wants to take me on a trip to celebrate some things that have finally been resolved in his family. And to avoid... temptation, Cindy and Jackson are coming with us.”Vanda smiled warmly, though her expression turned slightly puzzled as she blinked at her daughter.“I don’t get it,” she said. “You’re going on a romantic trip as a group of four?”Patricia nodded. “Yes. Two couples, each celebrating in their own way.”Vanda cleared her throat delicately, still trying to process the information. “But Jackson and Cindy already have an intimate life, while you and Ron
Chapter 952 One of Them Had Written That Letter
Back at the Sterling Cultural Hall, the office of Edmund Hudson was filled with the quiet aftermath of lunch. Disposable food containers from their takeout meals lay scattered across their desks. Bryce stifled a burp—barely.“Gross, son. Don’t do that,” Edmund grimaced.“What, you wanted me to sing the burp like I was on stage?” Bryce shot back with a grin.Edmund just shook his head and leaned back in his chair, clearly not in the mood.“You mentioned the stage... that reminded me of what Sergeant Carvalho said,” Edmund murmured.“It’s all too insane,” Bryce muttered. “Someone set up an elaborate plan to kill Vicente Gouveia.”“And I hope you’re not seriously thinking it was Matthew or Karl,” Edmund warned.Bryce, ever stubborn, didn’t back down. “It has to be one of them, Dad.”Edmund closed his eyes, clearly needing rest. Realizing he had hit a wall, Bryce stood and exited the room, slamming the door behind him.Out in the hallway, Bryce walked briskly, his brow furrowed. Tiffany a
Chapter 951 Foursome Romantic Trip
Across town at the Borges House, the midday sun streamed into the dining room where Patricia was seated with Cindy and Jackson. She placed her wine glass on the table and leaned forward, eyes bright with anticipation.“Guys, I have a proposal.”“Sounds exciting!” Jackson replied.“Ron and I are thinking of taking a trip. Something to help us decompress after all the stress and drama we’ve dealt with.”Cindy nodded, understanding. “Makes sense. Silva Oil won’t be facing charges, you and Liz Silva made peace, and Liz cut ties with Elaine.”Patricia raised her glass in a one-woman toast. “Amen to that. So, Ron and I want to celebrate — but we don’t want to go alone. For obvious reasons.”Cindy and Jackson exchanged a knowing glance.Jackson, ever the older brother, spoke up. “Sis, under normal circumstances, I’d tell you to wait until after the wedding. But since you’ve already... had your first time, would it really be that terrible to be alone with Ron on a romantic trip?”Patricia’s s
Chapter 950 Facing Nathan – AGAIN!
Nathan returned from his parents' apartment to the beach house, under the midday sun, with a triumphant smile that practically screamed "mission accomplished." As he stepped inside, his voice took on a villainous tone, relishing his recent success.“My father’s letter made quite the impression on the sergeant,” he murmured to himself. “Now it’s just a matter of time before he digs into the case and realizes Lawrence Vieira doesn’t exist... nothing but a fabrication by Karl Sterling.”Making his way into the kitchen, Nathan opened the refrigerator, rummaging through leftovers and pulling out a few pans. He set them on the stove, beginning to reheat his lunch while continuing his monologue with the flair of someone who thought ten moves ahead.“And even if they dig into the past or someone brings up the car crash, no one can prove anything. It'll be the word of a man who used a fake identity... versus a famous pianist whose life was nearly cut short.”The soft hiss of reheating food fil
Chapter 949 You Really Want to Help
Around midday, inside the police station, Sergeant Carvalho leaned forward in his chair, intrigued by the theory Matthew had just put forth about the incident at Vicente’s live concert. The near-tragic “accident” that had almost claimed a life now seemed more calculated than coincidental.“I hadn’t thought about it like that,” Carvalho admitted. “I mean, I knew you and Mr. Hudson saw the two workers, but... a test?”“Exactly!” Matthew said, visibly energized. “It can’t be coincidence that the accident played out the same way as the earlier incident. And there’s more — I clearly remember commenting to Bryce about the piano’s position.”Carvalho began clicking and typing quickly on his computer, searching through digital statements.“Young Mr. Hudson didn’t mention that,” he muttered. “Looks like I’ll have to pay him another visit.”Matthew didn’t hesitate. “Have you or any of your officers found anything on ‘José Ramos’ or ‘Seb Nozes’?”With a serious expression, Carvalho shook his hea
Chapter 948 Matthew Has a Theory
Back to the living room of Karl’s apartment, Karl and Sheila stood by the window, each with a glass of cognac in hand, trying to soothe their frayed nerves.“I just came from the Gibraltar Club,” Sheila said, her tone weary. “I was killing time. Had I known I’d need a drink, I’d have dragged you along.”Karl offered a dry chuckle. “Things are rough, darling. At least Matt is putting his resentment on hold to focus on what matters.”Sheila rolled her eyes and took another sip. “I want to see you two hug like father and son.”“That’ll have to wait,” Karl replied. “Sgt. Carvalho called me in to confirm my secret identity. Apparently, the police received an anonymous letter.”Sheila gasped, nearly spilling her drink. “What? An anonymous letter?”“I know,” Karl said with a smirk. “Feels very 90s, doesn’t it?”
Chapter 947 Carvalho Keeps Inquiring
On a tense morning inside the Sterling Empire headquarters, Matthew’s office had become a whirlwind of nervous energy. Evan reentered the room and paused, hardly recognizing his boss, who was frantically rummaging through drawers and documents on his desk.“Need any help, Young Matthew?” Evan asked cautiously, unsure whether to assist or flee.Matthew looked up, his expression sharp. “Evan, schedule an urgent meeting with the board of directors for tomorrow.”Evan nearly cursed under his breath. He had just spent considerable time reorganizing Matthew’s agenda!“For tomorrow?” he asked, struggling to remain composed.“Yes,” Matthew confirmed. “We’re going to discuss the revelation of my father’s true identity.”Evan stiffened, reaching for his tablet to make the changes. “For the board?”“Correct,” Matthew replied, his tone clip
