The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 760 Patricia Wants to Thanks Ronaldo
Elaine walked along Blue Cove Beach with a determined smile, her gaze fixed on the entrance of the Happy Snack Bar.The lively atmosphere inside was as bustling as ever. Nathan stood at the register, keeping a watchful eye on the customers placing orders and enjoying their meals. Skilled waiters moved fluidly through the space, efficiently serving and collecting well-earned tips. A smooth jazz melody from the 1940s or 50s played in the background, adding to the nostalgic ambiance.Elaine entered with a predatory gleam in her eyes, her expression brightening when she spotted her target. Nathan, however, felt his back stiffen as she approached, recalling his father’s warning.“Hi, Nate. Happy to see me?” she asked, her voice teasing.Nathan remained unimpressed. “Will you leave if I say no?”Her smile dimmed slightly. “Well, well... looks like we have a tough guy here.”“Someone who likes to keep things serious,” he replied.Elaine nodded. “I do too. But the town seems to be turned upsi
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 761 The Villains Are Panicked
The night air was thick with anticipation as Elaine and Nathan stepped out near the entrance of the Happy Snack Bar. Nathan's curiosity was almost suffocating, hooked by the topic Elaine had just introduced.“Here is fine,” he pressed, unable to contain his eagerness. “Come on, just say it already.”Elaine hesitated. “Nate, first of all, I want to warn you that I’m not making any of this up.”Nathan crossed his arms, his impatience growing. “I’ll be the judge of that.”“It’s not like that!” Elaine insisted. “I’m telling you the truth—something Matt is hiding from you.”Nathan scoffed. “Why would Matt hide something so horrible from me, according to your expression?”Elaine turned slightly green, recalling the cruel truth with evident disgust.She shook her head. “It’s just... it’s really something disgusting. It’s about that girl you dated for a few months, Bella Alvares.”Nathan stiffened, leaning forward. There was no doubt in his mind now — Elaine wasn’t making this up.“You... you
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 762 Nathan Learns the Truth
Nathan stood frozen on Blue Cove Beach, the weight of Elaine’s words pressing down on him like an anchor.“You... you... you are COMPLETELY CRAZY!” he stammered, shaking his head in disbelief.“I told you it’s the truth!” Elaine insisted. “Matt knows it; he researched and found out!”“How would he even find out about this? And why?” Nathan’s voice was exasperated. He took a deep breath, trying to steady himself. “This can only mean one thing: they really do have something in common!”Elaine hesitated. Should she reveal that Matthew had hired Bella to try to kill him?“Nate, calm down,” she urged. “Do you understand why you need to ally with me?”“He can’t do something like this to me!” Nathan muttered, his anger building.“I know! You weren’t a threat to him when the accident happened. But I’ll tell you one thing, Nate: I don’t believe Bella knows this.”“No, of course not! We...” Nathan trailed off as a sick realization dawned on him.Elaine, too, started to tremble, her body betrayi
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 763 This Issue Is MINE!
Liz stood in the living room of the Silva Penthouse, eyeing Fernando suspiciously as he lingered behind the couch.“What are you doing back there?” she demanded.“Nothing!” Fernando replied, a little too quickly.Liz narrowed her eyes. “Can’t you even hear Patricia the Slut’s name without feeling that hard thing down there?”Her shrill, unpleasant voice cut through Fernando’s arousal like a knife. He sighed, straightening himself and stepping out from his hiding spot, now more composed.“You’re the one with a dirty mind,” he said cynically.“Oh really? And you’re going to let our innocent son meet Patricia the Slut behind the chestnut trees at the beach?”“They’re not going to the chestnut trees! They’re going to the Happy Snack Bar!” Fernando shot back.Liz scoffed. “Which is near the chestnut trees—” she stopped mid-sentence, her face contorting in frustration. “ARGH! You’re probably going with them to have a threesome!”Fernando’s temper flared, and he raised his hand as if to stri
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 764 Liz Must Stay in Town
Nayla didn’t recognize the voice in the message, but she could tell from Kirk’s pale expression that it meant trouble. He looked as if he had just heard a voice from beyond the grave.“Who called you?” she asked.“No one...” Kirk muttered.“That voice can’t have been from Beyond, Kirk!” Nayla pressed.Through clenched teeth, he muttered, “I wish it had been...”Nayla nudged him, not willing to let it go. “Can you explain this to me? The audio said you were in debt... do you still owe them?”Kirk’s distressed eyes met hers. “Yes. It’s them. For Christ’s sake, Nayla, stay out of this.”“But of course, who am I to interfere?” she snapped. “But I would appreciate it if you stayed out of this too.”“I am out,” he assured her. “Thank God I wasn’t addicted enough to have withdrawal symptoms or need to check into a rehab clinic.”“I don’t care about that,” Nayla said sharply. “It’s not the drug itself, but everything that surrounds it. Lion’s Den suffered horrors while the dealers were at lar
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 765 Dreaming About Patty
The sun rose over Blue Cove City, casting a golden glow over the skyline. The peaceful morning was soon disrupted by the shrill ringing of a cellphone alarm inside Matthew’s suite at the Sterling Mansion.Elaine stirred in bed, groaning in frustration. She had wanted to sleep in but had forgotten to turn off the alarm. As she stretched her arm to reach for the phone, an excruciating pain shot through her body, making her wince.“Argh... Matt, did you have to be so brutal and fierce last night?” she muttered, her voice laced with exhaustion.The cellphone continued its relentless ringing.Gritting her teeth, Elaine forced herself to move, letting out soft whimpers of pain. Every inch of her body ached, as if she had been run over by a convoy of trucks. Finally, she grabbed the phone and silenced it before turning to the side.Matthew lay beside her, sleeping soundly like a baby with a satisfied smile on his lips. He looked peaceful, oblivious to her agony.Elaine found herself staring
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 766 Patricia Should Be Thankful
Matthew’s suite, Sterling Mansion.Elaine, still drained from the night before, abandoned her attempt to call Liz. Every muscle in her body ached, but the desperation to get away from Matthew was stronger. She swung her legs over the edge of the bed, only to feel a searing pain shoot through her body the moment her feet touched the floor. Her legs gave out beneath her, and she collapsed onto the plush carpet with a sharp cry.“OUCH!”Her voice cut through the stillness of the room, but Matthew didn’t stir. He remained deep in his dream, a contented smile on his lips — dreaming of Patricia.Tears welled up in Elaine’s eyes as she lay crumpled on the floor, the cold truth settling over her like a heavy weight.“It was just to get the presidency...” she whispered bitterly, her voice trembling. “I kind of knew that, but I thought Matt would get over the bitch... No... He wants me as his wife in the eyes of the public... but in his heart, it’s Patty Borges. It always was.”Grief and frustr
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 767 You Must Move Out
Germano stopped at the edge of Jackson’s hospital bed, near his feet, maintaining a noticeable distance. Jackson frowned slightly, feeling the gap between them.“Don’t you want to come closer?” he asked.“I don’t want to contaminate the sick with my germs,” Germano replied. “I’ve been down with the flu.”Jackson nodded. “Okay... So what did you want to tell me, Mr. Cardoso?”Germano took a deep breath. “I made peace with Cindy yesterday and told her that you’ll be a good husband.”Jackson’s eyes widened in disbelief. Was this really happening?“Are you serious, Mr. Cardoso?”“Yes. I... thought it over. My wife helped me see reason too. Your accident made us realize that life is short, and we need to stick together.”Jackson studied him carefully before nodding. “I understand.”Germano exhaled, his voice tightening with emotion. “I also came to the conclusion that there are worse things... and worse people out there. So, I won’t interfere with your relationship anymore. After all...” H

Chapter 944 Anonymous Letter
Nathan stood frozen, horrified, as the words sank in. Elaine knew. She knew the truth about Lawrence Vieira being Karl Sterling.“You... y-you... know?” he stammered, his voice barely above a whisper.Elaine’s response was calm but firm. “Matt told me everything. It looks like he only figured it out recently, before the concert.”She narrowed her eyes, her gaze sharpening with realization. “But you, Nathan...”Suddenly, she shouted, “YOU KNEW BEFORE ALL OF US!”Nathan flailed his arms in frustration, his body reacting as though he were being cornered by a crowd, despite being alone with her.“Keep your voice down!”“We’re alone,” Elaine said coolly, unimpressed. “And I’m not recording you. Don’t be ridiculous.”“This isn’t any of your business!”With a smirk, she
Chapter 943 Forging My Own Path
The tense conversation between Nathan and Elaine continued in the Beach House.Elaine leaned forward, her tone insistent. “Come on, Nate. Tell me the truth.”Nathan stopped pacing and met her eyes. “You seem pretty confident in what you’re saying.”“I am,” she replied firmly. “Matt doesn’t know about our alliance, so he wouldn’t lie about something this serious.”Nathan’s expression twisted with pain. “And you’re willing to believe him just because of my father’s past?”“Of course. Did I lie when I told you your father used to be a good-for-nothing, living off the Sterling fortune like a parasite?”Nathan flinched as if she’d slapped him. “No. That was true.”“And wasn’t it your idea to start that channel so your dad could launch his music career and you both could make some money after hitting rock
Chapter 942 I Know What You Dad Did
In the quiet, sun-dappled study of the Sterling Mansion, Matthew stood with a conflicted expression as Evan, his ever-loyal secretary, struggled to process the bombshell that had just been dropped.“That’s wonderful news!” Evan exclaimed, still reeling from the revelation that “Lawrence Vieira” was, in truth, Karl Sterling — Matthew’s father.Matthew raised an eyebrow, his tone cloaked in mystery. “Is it, Evan? Do you really know what this means?”Evan, trying to remain optimistic, replied, “It means you’ll have your father around to guide you even further in your business journey.”Matthew’s brow furrowed. “Don’t be naive. He didn’t waste a second before stating he wants the presidency back — immediately. He wants me out.”Evan’s face reflected the same mix of confusion and discomfort that Sheila had shown when confronted with Karl&rsq
Chapter 941 My Grandparents Are Coming Back
One week later, the sun rose over Blue Cove, casting golden light across the coastal city in its peaceful morning awakening, the waves gently lapping the shore.Inside the Sterling Mansion, Matthew stood in Abner’s old study, phone to his ear. As the call ended, Evan entered the room just in time to catch the tail end of the conversation.“Okay, I’ll arrange for a new office space — or maybe I’ll just stick with the master suite,” Matthew said, hanging up with a smile.“Good morning, young Matthew,” Evan greeted him.“Morning, Evan. I’ve got great news.”“I’m ready,” Evan replied, standing at attention.“Have the maids prepare the master suite,” Matthew instructed. “Grandma Alice and Grandpa Abner are returning from vacation.”Evan blinked in surprise, clearly not expecting that announcement. “Very good news, sir. But I thought—”“Evan,” Matthew interrupted with a serious tone, “as my secretary, you deserve to know. Two weeks ago, I discovered that Lawrence Vieira is actually my fathe
Chapter 940 Mentioning the Moving
That evening at the Beach House, Vicente emerged from the master bedroom carrying two suitcases, with Nathan close behind him.“Dad,” Nathan began, “the apartment that used to be Elaine’s still has furniture. It’s not the same quality as what you’re used to here, but... I think it’s enough for you and Mom to live in with Victor until you buy new stuff.”Vicente chuckled. “Yeah, I think we’ll survive with old furniture until then.”“At least the monetization from your channel—”Vicente’s expression darkened, cutting him off. “Son, the last thing on my mind right now is that damned career.”His eyes drifted toward the piano in the corner, a symbol that once meant everything to him, now just a reminder of what had gone wrong.Nathan sighed. “Dad, you’re aiming your anger at the wrong target.”Vicente’s voice grew quiet. “Your mother suspects Karl might’ve been behind the ‘accident.’”That made Nathan pause, rubbing his chin as he considered it. “I hadn’t thought of that.”“Sergeant Carva
Chapter 939 Caught a Cold in the Rain
That evening, at the Andrade Clinic, a soft creak signaled the opening of the door to Andreia’s room. Matthew stepped in first, followed closely by Elaine.Andreia, reclining against the adjustable headboard of her hospital bed, cradled baby Victor in her arms. She looked up with a warm smile as they entered.“Hi, Matt! Look, Victor — your cousin’s here!” she said, her voice light with affection.Elaine masked a brief grimace, one that only Matthew noticed. The couple approached the bedside slowly, their steps respectful.“He’s a beautiful baby, Aunt Andreia. Congratulations,” Matthew said sincerely.“How have you been doing?” Elaine added, forcing a polite tone.“I’m doing well. And the baby’s healthy, thank God. Vince just left — he went home to grab a few things.”Elaine glanced at Matthew again, suspicion rising in her eyes. She wasn’t convinced Andreia’s mention of Vince was coincidental.“I’m sorry about everything that happened,” Matthew said gently.Andreia tilted her head, co
Chapter 938 What Had in the Backpack
As the evening cast long shadows over the elegant interior of the Andrade Mansion, Walter stepped into the vestibule with a satisfied grin. Jacqueline, already waiting near the foyer, eyed him curiously.“Walt, why did you take so long? Did you spend the whole Sunday at the Lion’s Den?” she asked, tilting her head.Walter’s expression was one of mischief. “Let’s just say I spent the day with Linda, as I should.”Jacqueline’s face lit up with a touch of nostalgia. “Oh, I remember when I spent a day with Zach in the favela. We weren’t robbed and we had a blast! Even ate at a street food stand — it was fun.”Walter chuckled. “And your delicate stomach didn’t act up?”“Who said it did?” she replied, giving his chiseled abs a playful pat. “You and your fitness lifestyle should be more worried about fried snacks than I am.”Walter only smiled more, his mind elsewhere.I must’ve burned countless calories in that marathon... he thought to himself. Aloud, he added, “I didn’t even witness the s
Chapter 937 We’re Not in a Relationship
As the afternoon light waned into the beginnings of dusk, Vicente stood by the window of Andreia's hospital room in the Andrade Clinic. He drew the curtains open again, gazing at the sky, which had started to clear after the storm. The clouds were retreating, leaving behind hints of a serene night.“Looks like we’ll have a starry night, at least,” he said, hopeful.“But it won’t be warm,” Andreia replied from her bed, her voice calm but weary.Vicente turned to her and walked closer, the fluorescent hospital light casting a soft glow on his concerned face.“Sweetheart, do you see now that Nate might be right about us not staying at the beach house to take care of Victor?”Andreia nodded, resigned. “Victor would cry nonstop with the wind slamming against the roof and that creepy foam all around.”“Then it’s settled,” Vicente said, gently. “Moving to the apartment Nate found for us is probably for the best.”She shifted slightly, uneasy. “There’s just one thing that worries me about thi
Chapter 936 Lost My Backpack
That afternoon, inside Linda’s bedroom at the Alvares family house, Paulina was involved in an awkward battle with a mountain of blankets. She pulled from one side, while Walter and Linda, unaware of her efforts, tugged from the other. Eventually, Paulina managed to peel back enough of the layers to reveal Walter’s head, shoulders, and chest.From Paulina’s perspective, Walter was a sight to behold — grinning like a mischievous boy, sweaty, flushed, undeniably sexy. Once again, Paulina had to resist the overwhelming temptation to dive into that cocoon and take her daughter’s place!“Mrs. Alvares, thank you so much for your help,” Walter said, still catching his breath.Paulina stammered, “N-no problem... You should go before Ernie comes back.”“And what about Linda?” he asked.“I’ll tell him she’s resting.”She cast a glance at the blanket pile concealing her daughter, clearly either passed out or fast asleep after the relentless pounding she’d endured since the previous night. Paulin
