The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 752 I’ll Always Love Your Sister
At Golden Letters, Karl’s office hummed with the quiet intensity of a battle of wills. Elaine sat across from him, frustration etched into every line of her face. No matter what she did, she couldn’t shake off the accusation of ruining Vanda’s book signing. Karl, on the other hand, wore a victorious smirk, clearly enjoying her discomfort.“Lawrence, what do I need to do to convince you that what happened at the signing was an accid—”Karl cut her off sharply. “HEY! Don’t even try that excuse! What happened to Jackson may have been an accident, but as for the champagne glasses? Everyone saw the video!”Elaine bristled, her agitation mounting. “You... you don’t understand how bad this looks for my image as Mrs. Sterling!”Karl blinked, incredulous. “Why didn’t you think about that BEFORE acting, creature?”Elaine groaned, rubbing her temples. Sharp pains pulsed around her forehead and eyes, stress manifesting physically.“I don’t know, I DON’T KNOW! I’m going crazy,” she admitted, her v
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 753 Paulina, a Stylist?
Police Station, afternoon.Karl read the note carefully, his brow furrowed in concentration. The message, scrawled by the so-called “boys” from the Bento family, left little room for doubt.Carvalho stood on the other side of the desk, watching him closely, waiting for a reaction.“So, everything has been resolved,” Karl finally said.Carvalho nodded. “Yes, everything has been resolved. It seems the kidnappers received the worst punishment.”Karl handed the note back to the sergeant, his shoulders relaxing ever so slightly. “So my girlfriend is safe.”“Exactly,” Carvalho confirmed. “You can rest easy, Mr. Vieira. And once again, we thank you for finding the hideout where Mrs. Sterling was being held.”Karl smiled, a rare expression of relief. “I’m grateful as well, to God.”He was about to leave when he noticed Carvalho hesitating, as if there was more on his mind.“Uh... Mr. Vieira, do you have any idea what your girlfriend — or your future stepson — is going to do about Elaine Sterl
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 754 Matthew Comforted By Mom and “Dad”
Walter sat in his office at the Andrade Clinic, frowning at his computer screen. His workload was overwhelming, yet his mind refused to focus. Frustrated, he slammed his hand on the desk and sighed.Instead of tackling the documents before him, he clicked them closed and opened Solitaire. The familiar game felt like a small act of rebellion, a temporary escape.He had just started clicking on the cards when the door swung open, and Jacqueline entered, her warm smile lighting up the room.“Hey, bro. Are you really busy?” she asked.Walter smirked without looking away from the screen. “I’m not exactly solving global health issues. What do you need, sis?”Jacqueline chuckled as she approached, noticing the game on his screen. Her laughter deepened. “I thought you were checking the financial spreadsheets for the spending and costs department.”Walter grinned, shrugging. “A little bit of Solitaire to gain some patience. Matt was here earlier, and we had a heart-to-heart.”Her curiosity was
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 755 Lunch at the Slum?
At Andrade Clinic, in Walter’s office, Ernesto sat before Walter and Jacqueline, still dressed in his dockworker attire. Neither of the Andrade siblings minded his clothing, showing no hint of social prejudice.“Walter, Miss Andrade...” Ernesto began hesitantly.Jacqueline smiled sweetly. “You can call me Jacqueline, Mr. Alvares.”Visibly nervous, Ernesto took a breath. “If your father doesn’t hang me afterward... well, I came to personally thank you for taking care of my daughter.”Walter ran his index finger along his collar while Jacqueline’s smile broadened even further.“Mr. Alvares, the pleasure was all ours in helping,” she assured him. “We are happy to have protected her after that incident.”Walter grinned. “And that means we can finally have that lunch or dinner at your place.”Ernesto suddenly coughed violently, startling Jacqueline.“Mr. Alvares, are you okay?”“Cough, cough... Guys, such an arrangement is IMPOSSIBLE!”The siblings exchanged puzzled glances. “Where is the
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 756 Walter Misses Linda
Vicente sat at the piano in his beach house, a handwritten score spread out before him. With a pen in hand, he meticulously corrected and rearranged the musical notes, occasionally testing them on the keyboard. His movements were careful, his glances frequently darting toward Nathan’s bedroom door, as if afraid of disturbing his son’s sleep.Just then, the door creaked open, and Nathan emerged, rubbing his eyes, shirtless. Vicente’s face lit up with a smile, and he began playing with more enthusiasm, the notes growing louder.“Oh, son, I’m glad you woke up. I was afraid I might disturb your sleep,” Vicente said.Nathan smiled, understanding. “I’m the one who shouldn’t dare interrupt the artist’s creation.”Vicente, brimming with excitement, pointed at his composition. “It’s going to be beautiful, a masterpiece. My subscribers will love it.”“That’s great, Dad,” Nathan replied before heading toward the kitchen.Vicente, sensing an opportunity for a father-to-son talk, got up and follow
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 757 Germano’s Apology Video
As dusk settled over the beach house, Vicente and Nathan continued their conversation in the kitchen. This time, it was Vicente who poured himself a glass of water from the filter. Nathan, shifting his weight from one foot to the other, finally spoke.“I need to take a shower before heading to the kiosk,” he said.Vicente took a sip, eyeing his son carefully. “You still haven’t answered my question.”Nathan inhaled deeply, as if bracing himself. “No, Dad. I don’t want to go to war again.”“That means you need to stay away from Elaine Sterling,” Vicente warned. He took another sip before placing the glass in the sink.Nathan remained silent, lost in thought.“If you return to hostility,” Vicente continued, “Matt will kick you out of the kiosk without a second thought. And then, son, the only way you’ll find work is by leaving Blue Cove — if your bad reputation doesn’t spread all over Brazil first.”Nathan scoffed. “I can’t be that unlucky.”“It’s not always about luck,” Vicente said, f
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 758 Andreia Wants to Rest
As the sun dipped toward the horizon, Andreia returned home from work, heading straight for the sofa. She slipped off her shoes and leaned back with a sigh, exhaustion settling over her. It wasn’t that work had been particularly demanding, but her pregnancy was taking its toll.She sat still for a moment, deep in thought, her hands resting on her belly. Vicente emerged from the bedroom and smiled warmly at the sight of his wife.“I thought I heard you. How are you, dear?” he asked, his voice filled with affection.Andreia looked up at him. “I’m thinking about making an important decision, my love.”As she massaged her round belly, Vicente sat beside her, placing his hands gently over hers. His eyes widened in surprise.“Hey, he kicked!” he exclaimed.Andreia smiled. “Thank goodness. That shows he’s still healthy.”Vicente’s expression darkened slightly. “I’m not sure I like this ‘still.’”Andreia giggled and tried to lean back more comfortably. Seeing her struggle, Vicente adjusted th
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 759 Elaine Is on the Warpath
Elaine paced in circles inside her office at Golden Letters, fury burning in her eyes as she occasionally kicked at the shattered remains of her computer. The pieces scattered across the floor, remnants of her frustration. Phone pressed to her ear, she spoke frantically.“I know, Liz, I KNOW! But what else can be done?” she snapped, listening intently before continuing. “Did you hear what he said at the end of the video? CRUISE IN THE BAHAMAS!” Another pause, another surge of anger. “Your son must have paid a hefty sum to convince him! We should’ve paid him to be loyal to us! The commitment agreement wasn’t enough!”The office door swung open, and Kirk appeared in his uniform.“Mrs. Sterling...?” he called hesitantly, his gaze sweeping the room before landing on the broken computer.He knelt to start gathering the shards.Elaine, still engrossed in her conversation, hadn’t even noticed his presence. “But this won’t stand. We’re going to find out what happened!” she vowed before finall

Chapter 859 Linda Uses Her Brain
At the Alvares family’s house, Linda smiled as she responded to Gustavo. “Yes, Gus. I’ll send another text asking to check this with Walt.” Gustavo cheered, punching the air. “YES! Awesome, sis! We’re going to find out the truth!” Linda smiled, but inside, she was quite worried. “Gus, what if Nathan really is our half-brother?” Gustavo didn’t seem to care much. “He won’t be a part of our family, that much you can be sure of!” “It won’t be that easy. It seems our dad has no idea about this. And now he’s in the hospital... talk about perfect timing!” Linda rolled her eyes. Gustavo didn’t respond as if he knew Ernesto was aware of Nathan’s existence... Before he decided to say anything, the living room door opened. Bella walked in, stopping suddenly when she saw her two older siblings. “Oh... Linda, you’re home early.” “I asked Walt for the afternoon off right after I saw you leave the clinic looking all stormy,” Linda replied like any older sister would. Bella swallowed hard.
Chapter 858 Did ‘Larry’ Authorized the Live Concert?
Now, Edmund, Evan, and Matthew were in Edmund’s office. Bryce’s desk was empty. Edmund had a start, thinking of a possibility. “Was it Bryce who informed you, Young Matthew, about your uncle’s concert?” Matthew narrowed his eyes. “Why are you so determined to find out who told me what?” “Because my son has been the gossip boy of the week!” Edmund shouted, frustrated. “Ugh, family problems. Spare me!” Evan rolled his eyes. Edmund pressed his lips together. “You give that secretary too much freedom.” Matthew slammed his hand on Bryce’s empty desk. “Edmund, I’m waiting for the reason you agreed to hold a live concert in favor of my uncle!” “Fine! When he showed up here, I admit I wanted to tell him to go to hell.” “And why didn’t you?” Matthew raised his eyebrows. “Lawrence Vieira was nearby and suggested that I accept the suggestion,” Edmund cautiously replied. Matthew reacted with intrigue. “What are you saying? Lawrence Vieira? What does he have to do with the Sterling Cult
Chapter 857 Cussing His Mother
At the beach house, Paulina received the truth that, instead of freeing her, would trap her in more problems. “What are you talking about? Vince, have you been drinking?” “Hey, only my dear wife can call me ‘Vince’ or ‘Vinnie,’ are you listening?” Vicente cut in sternly. “We no longer have that kind of intimacy, get that in your head!” Paulina smiled seductively despite her age. “I remember a time when we were VERY intimate.” “Come on. You married a nobody and wasted all the money I gave you. You disgust me.” Vicente nearly spat. “You could have moved to the United States, and Bella would never have run into my son.” “It seems like irony of fate, but I can’t change what happened,” Paulina retorted. “And I find it very hard to believe that a respectable businessman like Matthew Sterling would devise a plan to have his cousin killed, who poses no threat to him anymore.” “HA! Try telling that to him then! That’s exactly our problem!” Vicente gestured. Paulina began to understand.
Chapter 856 We’ll Cancel the Divorce
In Elaine’s apartment, she opened the door again to receive a visit from Nayla.“Hello, dear friend! I hope I’m not bothering you... what happened to the TV?”Elaine wrinkled her nose, remembering how the TV got broken. “Jacqueline Andrade broke it when she came to visit me along with Cindy Cardoso.”Nayla reacted horrified. “But why the hell did you let those two in? They probably ripped you apart!”“Yes, they got revenge; it didn’t matter how many times I begged that the accident was just that — an accident.” Elaine sat down on the couch. “But don’t worry. In the future, I won’t miss the TV at all.”Nayla remained standing. “Did you get a job to buy another TV?”“Not exactly.” Elaine smiled excitedly. “Guess what: Matt showed up earlier proposing that we cancel the divorce.”Nayla gasped and reacted with her mouth agape, wanting to jump for joy.“Celebrate, my friend!” Elaine cheered.“AAAHHH!!” Nayla clapped her hands. “Girl, this is amazing! Matthew Sterling really loves you!”Ela
Chapter 855 They Did a DNA Test!
At the Sterling Cultural Hall, Edmund cleverly greeted Matthew at the entrance instead of waiting for him in his office. Perhaps Edmund needed witnesses... “Why didn’t you wait for me in the office?” Matthew asked him with a furrowed brow. “Hello, Young Matthew... Secretary Evan...” Evan had ominously stuck his hand inside his jacket. Edmund swallowed hard, realizing the implication of that. Matthew shook his head. “Okay, if you want to be reprimanded in front of the staff... what the hell is going on here, Edmund?” “Are you referring to Vicente Gouveia’s live concert?” Edmund wanted to buy time. “Who told you?” “The announcement is plastered on the website. Don’t be obtuse, Mr. Hudson!” Evan reprimanded him sternly. Edmund grimaced, but he lacked the courage to retort. “Edmund, I thought you knew that Uncle Vicente and I ceased our business partnership,” Matthew continued. “Therefore, I want all preparations for the concert to cease IMMEDIATELY!” Matthew’s voice thundered th
Chapter 854 Double Agent
The landline phone on Edmund’s desk rang, and he answered. “Sterling Cultural Hall, Edmund Hudson, good afternoon.” On the other end, Matthew was overly cheerful. “GOOD AFTERNOON, Ed! Matthew Sterling speaking!” Edmund felt his throat tighten. “Yes, Mr. Sterling, I can hear you loud and clear.” “Are you complaining that I’m speaking too loudly?” Matthew asked scandalously. “No, no... how can I assist you?” “Are you serving me, Ed?” Matthew asked irreverently. “It doesn’t seem that way. I feel like you’re serving the interests of my Uncle Vicente, the one who hates me and possibly killed my father.” Edmund began to tremble. “Young Matthew, I can explain.” “No need. I’m coming over right now, and I hope you wait for me. It’s better we talk in person, man to man, don’t you think?” “Yes, I think that—” Edmund felt Matthew hang up on him. Matthew abruptly got up from his desk. “Can we go, Evan?” “Right away, sir!” Evan grabbed his suit jacket. Matthew returned to his usual pos
Chapter 853 Burnt Lunch
At the Sterling Empire headquarters, Evan entered Matthew’s office only to find him sitting on the sofa, staring into space as if he were in deep meditation. “Hello, Young Matthew... any problems?” “It seems we’re having some communication issues, Evan,” Matthew said, still in the same position. Evan promptly grabbed his tablet, checking messages and the agenda for the day. “I don’t see where I failed to communicate anything to you, Young Matthew. What did you miss?” Matthew turned to him. “You failed to tell me that the Sterling Cultural Hall is hosting my uncle, the one who hates me, whose son hates me even more, for a live concert this Saturday.” Evan lost color in his face. “B-but that’s impossible! I never communicated anything like that to you because none of that is happening!” “Take a look at the Sterling Cultural Hall website,” Matthew pointed to the computer, his tone icy. Evan swallowed hard and complied. Indeed, the announcement was prominently displayed. “This is
Chapter 852 The Will of Baring Her Heart
In the podcast studio, Jorge walked into the office and found Bella placing the printed scripts on his desk. She reacted with surprise, as if she had been caught stealing. “Hey, why so startled?” Jorge asked with a chuckle. “I didn’t expect to be caught by anyone,” Bella replied, embarrassed. Jorge approached her, smiling. “So, how about we have lunch together?” “What happened to the ‘employee-doesn’t-date-boss’ policy?” Bella tried to step back. Jorge pulled her by the left arm. “That policy doesn’t exist here in my studio. Everyone can date freely, even me.” Bella didn’t want to, but she couldn’t resist and let out a good laugh. “So, does that mean there’s no Mrs. Nunes?” “Not yet.” Jorge looked at her with interest. “So, what do you say?” “Well...” Bella started to ponder. “If you’re worried about being recognized at the Siren Restaurant, there are other places.” Jorge raised his eyebrows like a persistent boy. “Yes, I’m actually thinking about that possibility. We can’t
Chapter 851 Forbidden Live Concert
At the Sterling Cultural Hall, Bryce was standing, still dizzy from the feeling that his theory finally made sense. “If Mrs. Sterling proves that man is her deceased husband... how would Matt feel? Would he stop being the heir to the Sterling Empire since his father is still alive?” Edmund entered the office hearing his son’s question and filled with rage. “That conspiracy theory of yours is driving you crazy. You’re even talking to yourself!” “Dad, you can mock as much as you want. The truth always comes to light; that’s how things work.” Bryce grabbed his wallet and his phone. “I’m going to lunch; are you coming with me?” “No, I have to take care of a few things first. Vicente Gouveia’s concert needs to be perfect!” “And does Matt know about this?” Bryce asked provocatively. “Go eat, go, son...” Edmund ran his fingers over his forehead, pretending to have a headache. Bryce smiled, realizing that Matthew was completely in the dark about this concert. ****** At Borges House,
