The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 77 Matthew and Patricia Give No Truce
Matthew and Patricia meet at the Happy Snack kiosk, which is now closed indefinitely.“It was so nice to work here...” Patricia laments, “Why did he have to ruin everything?”Matthew approaches her, “Who ruined what?”“YOU!” Patricia slaps Matthew as soon as she sees him.Matthew is stunned and massages his sore cheek. “Did you summon me for this?”Tears are already beginning to flow down Patricia’s cheeks. “Just tell me WHY, Matt?”“From the moment you started sleeping with David Rocha, you don’t deserve to know anything else about my life.” Matthew responds seriously, “What morality do you have to criticize Cindy when she had a moment with Ricardo Montegrande if you do the same thing?”“I’M NOT SLEEPING WITH DAVID!”“Yes, you are, Patty, YOU ARE!” Matthew roars, “Don’t lie to me!”“And YOU can lie to me?” Patricia is horrified.“I hadn’t told anyone about my true identity.” Matthew explains, “I discovered this months ago when Grandpa Abner found me here. I was afraid of revealing my
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 78 The Borges Family Is Awarded
“Of course not, Mrs. Sterling!”“You better call me Sheila. We’ve been friends for a long time, and the other one calls my vixen mother-in-law Alice.”“OK...” Patricia takes a deep breath, “Matt would never agree to me dating David. I believe he thinks this thing about me sleeping with David just out of spite, out of jealousy.”“You’re not in love with David.” Sheila doesn’t ask, she states.“No, I’m not. I will always love your son, Sheila.” Patricia pours her heart into this sentence.Sheila smiles contentedly, “Then why are we wasting time? Let’s wait for him to return so you can declare yourself once and for all.”“I can’t, Sheila. I can’t try to win over Matt, not now that he’s turned out to be a millionaire. I need to improve my social status and hope he becomes disillusioned with Cindy.”“And how are you going to improve your social status?” Sheila was afraid to wait for the answer.“David Rocha,” Patricia responds in cold blood.“Are you going out with David out of pure materi
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 79 Cindy’s Dilemma
Jackson was swimming in a secluded spot on Blue Cove beach. Not only did he enjoy the relief of cooling off the heat in the water, but he was also excited about his job at the Happy Snack Bar.The sun began to set, and he didn’t want to continue alone. Even though he checked that no one was around, he got out of the water, covered himself with both hands and went to the chestnut tree where his clothes were waiting for him.He grabbed a towel and started to dry himself when he heard his cell phone ringing in the plastic bag.“Hello?”On the other side, Vanda was very excited, “Son! Come back here immediately! Where are you?”“Mom, I’m at the beach. I’m drying off to go home.” Jackson smiles.“Come back, my son! A secretary from Abner Sterling said Matt bought us a house!” Vanda exclaims excitedly.Jackson frowns. “Mom, aren’t you making this up? Is this in one of your novels that you read so much?”“Don’t mock, son, don’t mock!” Vanda giggles, “If you don’t believe me, I’ll pass the ca
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 80 No Right to Complaints
Matthew confronts Cindy about her desperation in worrying about Ricardo’s health.Cindy shakes her head. “What’s all this talk, Matt? I accidentally ran over Ricardo. I need to be responsible for what happened!”“Then why did you come to me?” Matthew asks dryly.“Because I’m confused, scared... I thought I killed the guy!” Cindy screams.“And why did you end up running over him?” Matthew holds her.“I was maneuvering to get away from him. Ricardo continued to try to open my car door. I put my foot down on the gas pedal...” Cindy trembles, “And I just felt the thump. I didn’t even look back.”Matthew is grim-faced, “So he was chasing you, harassing you, and you were trying to escape. Honey, if you think he’s going to try to sue you or something, forget it. Don’t worry, he knows he’s the one in the wrong.”&ldquo

On Tuesday, Cindy eagerly liked Jackson’s photo.She was sitting on the bed, in her nightgown, taking advantage while listening to the sound of the shower and Matthew’s whistle.Upon seeing Jackson’s profile update, Cindy could clearly see that Jackson was swimming au naturel thanks to the pool lighting.She licked her lips and bit her lower lip in lust and uncontained fire.In the comments, male friends congratulated Jackson on his new home. But his female friends... jokingly commented on the absence of swimming trunks...Cindy was going to post a bold comment until she noticed Patricia’s comment, good-natured, participating in the joke.That stopped Cindy. She thought, “If I comment and Patricia finds me... She’ll give me away to Matt. I can’t be careless.”Thinking about her safety, Cindy ‘disliked’ the photo, afraid that Patricia would catch her.******At t
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 82 Autograph Session with Twist
The autograph session ended with all available copies sold. Gabriel Mattos, despite being an idiot, promised to be a successful author.People who didn’t want a printed copy were directed to the Golden Letters website to purchase the online version.Gabriel was smiling at the prospect of receiving his commission.“Mr. Sterling... I’m going to be RICH!”“Don’t get excited, Gabriel.” Matthew laughs, “To buy a mansion in Golden Sun, you need to sell more and more copies.”“One day, I’ll get there!” Gabriel raised his hands to the sky.Elaine approached them, “Hello, Matt. The autograph session turned out to be a success. Congratulations on the accurate choice of writer.”“We should thank the champion here for having the talent to keep us hooked in his story. I couldn’t stop reading!” Matthew taps Gabriel’s shoulder.“That’s true, Mr. Mattos.” Elaine praises him.Gabriel felt like he was floating on clouds.Meanwhile, Nathan just watched everyone talking and praising each other from a dis
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 83 Nathan Is Defeated Twice
In the bookstore where Gabriel Mattos’ autograph session took place, Matthew heard a scandalous woman and decided to check it out. He felt like he knew that voice...Indeed, the voice was that of his dear girlfriend, Cindy. Cindy was nervous with her hand on Jackson’s arm.“Jackson, Cindy... What’s going on?” Matthew asks as he stares at the position they are in.“Matt, I need to talk to you.” Jackson lets go of Cindy and approaches him, “I want to clear up the possibility of a misunderstanding.”“Seriously? I like it when they clarify things for me.” Matthew smiles gently.Cindy takes the opportunity to slip away, “I need to go back to LCN, Matt. Goodbye!”Matthew watches his girlfriend run away, wondering why she didn’t leave sooner as she said.Jackson starts talking, “Matt, I hope you don’t think less of Cindy if she happens to interact with the photos I post on social media.”Matthew is surprised, “Is that what the commotion is about?”“Cindy loves you, buddy.” Jackson tries hard
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 84 Sheila Fulfills Her Mission
Nathan returns to the apartment disgusted with the treatment he received. He was constantly rubbing a tissue on his face.Vicente was playing a piece on the grand piano. “What is it now, son?”“An intern had the audacity to spit on me!” Nathan was unaware of the news that Augusto was no longer an intern.Vicente stops his fingers on the piano keys. He frowns and complains, “What is going on in this company? Where is your grandfather to put order in the joint?”Nathan sits on the couch, “It’s not just that, Dad. A favela resident showed up at the bookstore where the autograph session took place, identifying himself as Matt’s friend, thanking him for the house he got for free! To make matters worse, it was my home!”Andreia appeared listening to the last part, “What do you mean, Nate?”“Matt bought my house in Golden Sun to give it to a favela family!” Nathan exclaims in outrage.Andreia, however, doesn’t see this as a big deal. “But son, you don’t live in that glass box anymore.

Chapter 816 A Hard Truth to Swallow
At Andrade Clinic, Elaine faces Fernando still in the lobby. The man is tired of being reprimanded constantly. Running his hand over his face to calm his nerves, he complained, “You too, Elaine!” “What’s wrong?” Elaine smiled maliciously. “Tired of telling lies and trying to defend yourself in vain?” “How do you know my defense is in vain?” Fernando narrowed his eyes. Elaine headed toward the waiting seats, picking one. “I know you must be desperately trying to ‘prove’ that your attack on Mr. Alvares has nothing to do with your hidden passion for Patty.” “How many times do I have to tell you I am NOT in love with Patty?” Fernando clenched one fist. “That’s a lie made up by Liz’s mind. Remember, it’s because of these paranoias that she couldn’t take it and is now in there fighting for her life.” Elaine lost her smile. “The only fight Liz is involved in is proving how harmful Patty is to society, to men!” “If you keep talking like that, you’ll be next,” Fernando said through grit
Chapter 815 Opportunity to Promote Oneself
Vanda was placing the remaining pots on the stove to heat up dinner. Cindy and Jackson were gathered around. “The maid has already left,” Vanda said as if she were explaining herself. “Mom, I know you still enjoy doing housework,” Jackson replied with a chuckle. “Yeah, but I need to let the maid do something while I focus on my new book,” Vanda admitted, keeping an eye on the stove to make sure nothing burned. “Oh, is a new book coming? Who’s going to handle the book signing?” Cindy commented venomously. Jackson shook his head. “The information we have is that Elaine was fired from Golden Letters.” Cindy smiled maliciously, feeling vindicated. “That’s the least that can be expected. Oh, why did Matt—” Cindy’s phone buzzed with a message notification. She checked her phone anxiously. “It’s Matt. He just sent me what I should officially say in the magazine. I need to forward this to Andreia,” Cindy informed the others, already sharing the message. Vanda sighed in relief. Elain
Chapter 814 Dedicated Husband Role
In the kitchen of Borges House, Jackson and Cindy were enjoying the pot pie that Vanda baked. A large piece was sliced by Jackson while Cindy chose a more modest piece. Now, they were at the table. “I don’t want my dinner appetite ruined,” Cindy commented playfully. “This? Ruining your appetite?” Jackson reacted, pretending to be shocked. “Hey, for someone as big as you, who can handle wearing me out all night long, eating a lot is normal and necessary.” Cindy laughed, lightly nudging Jackson’s shoulder. Jackson pretended the nudge hurt, but laughed along with his beloved. Cindy chewed and swallowed another bite. “Hmm... my mom outdid herself. So, my dear, how was your day?” “My day was great. Besides exercising, I caught some sun by the pool.” Jackson ran his hand under his tank top. Cindy noticed his tanned skin. “That’s really good for your health. When you get better, my dear, we’ll go to the beach. I also need to get some color.” “It’s because you spend too much time in t
Chapter 813 Nathan and His Difficult Mission
As evening fell, Cindy returned home from work, finding Jackson carefully making his way to the kitchen with crutches. “Hey, hey, hey! Wait for someone to help you. Where's Patty? Where are your parents?” Cindy quickly positioned herself next to her boyfriend. Jackson laughed. “Don’t worry, sweetheart. I can manage. I’ve been walking around the house to get some exercise.” Jackson kissed her cheek. “But your parents were around, right?” Cindy felt some tightness in her heart. “Yes, they’re around. And Patty went to Ron’s house. He’s now living in his grandparents’ mansion.” Cindy nodded in approval. “He couldn’t keep living in that penthouse with that toxic and harmful environment.” “Yeah. Ron already had a bit of a mental problem. Now we know where he got it from.” Jackson shook his head. “Speaking of his family, the news of Liz’s stroke — the real one — is being kept under wraps, huh? Nobody at Urbano reported it, nor at LCN, and Ron's grandparents didn’t mention it at the p
Chapter 812 I Need to Change Jobs
With Fernando absent, Matthew and Sheila have the chance to discuss the recent events. Evan entered the office and closed the door. “Alright, Mr. Silva has returned to his company to deal with the problems.” “Thank you for leading him, Evan.” Matthew took a deep breath. “So, mom? His last explanation seemed quite plausible.” Sheila smiled awkwardly. “Yeah, getting your hands dirty for your son. I have to admit, if it were Ron, with how jealous he is, it would be worse.” “But from what they say about Gus Alvares, he seems to be quite muscular, like a comic book hero. More muscular than I am,” Matthew chuckled. “How could Ron defeat him?” Sheila replied somberly, “Matt, sometimes the power of a weapon surpasses that of fists.” Matthew stopped laughing. His mother was right. Evan offered, “Do you want me to look into this matter closely?” Matthew gestured. “I don’t think that’s necessary. What I need now is Fabian Mendes to formalize the divorce. And a press conference just like
Chapter 811 Getting Your Hands Dirty for the Son
Matthew and Sheila try to understand Fernando’s troubled mind as he defends himself excessively regarding what happened at the Silva Oil Company. “Who was working shirtless on the docks? Gus Alvares?” Sheila asked, intrigued. Fernando felt his blood boil as he replied, “Yes, sis! He’s a pervy, using the heat as a flimsy excuse to take off his shirt and flirt in front of Patty just as she was passing by! Come on, guys, do you think it was a mere ‘coincidence’?” Matthew replied glumly, “I bet Gus Alvares swears he’s innocent.” “Of course, he swears he’s innocent, but I figured out his game!” Fernando shouted. Sheila shook her head. “You know what the big problem is, Nando? The next time something like this happens, Patty will hide it instead of telling you, fearing a second tragic episode. If Gus Alvares is scheming, you just made it easier for him.” Fernando was frantic, wanting to pull his hair out. “But... but... how is it POSSIBLE that I made it easier for the creep? On the co
Chapter 810 A Shoulder to Lean On
At the Sterling Empire headquarters, Matthew probes Fernando, trying to extract his intimate thoughts about Patricia. But Fernando is already suspicious.“Matt, I can’t believe you’re joining the chorus of accusers!” Fernando complained.Sheila frowned. “What chorus, big bro?”“They’re all accusing me of being jealous and caring about Patty’s integrity more than my own son!” Fernando paced around the room, burying his hands in his hair.“Uncle Nando, let’s take it easy.” Matthew tried to be rational. “I saw the press conference where Grandpa Leo explained the situation objectively. Now, we need to see the situation emotionally. Don’t you think you’ve overdone it in defending Patricia?”“No. I think this whole thing about the dockworkers revering Patty as the ‘Diva of the Silva Oil Company’ is going way too far. They’re confusing admiration with lust. At least, that’s what Gus Alvares thinks.”“But it’s his father who is bedridden.” Matthew observed coldly.“It wasn’t supposed to be hi
Chapter 809 Who Will Quit?
At Sterling Empire headquarters, Evan was reporting Elaine’s transfer to her new apartment. “Young Matthew, your soon-to-be ex-wife has been settled into her new apartment.” “Thank you, Evan.” Matthew smiled, sitting at his desk. “Your loyalty will be highly rewarded.” “I already feel rewarded, Young Matthew.” Evan chuckled. “Well then, it’s time for you to have more ambitions in your life, isn’t it?” Matthew asked casually. “For instance, don’t you have a girlfriend you distract yourself with when you’re not working?” Just as Evan was about to admit he was seeing someone, the door swung open. Sheila and Fernando walked in with somber expressions. “Mom, Uncle Nando? What happened now?” Matthew stood up abruptly, concerned. “Son, take it easy,” Sheila asked. “It’s nothing too serious.” “But you both look...” Matthew scratched the back of his neck. Fernando took a deep breath before continuing. “Matt, I know you and your Aunt Liz have had some differences, but it’s time to show
Chapter 808 I Don’t Need to Be Afraid
Matthew returned to his office at Sterling Empire headquarters. He was brushing off the shoulders and arms of his suit, still feeling the grains of sand from the beach. “Larry, Larry... you’re acting really strange. I don’t understand why you’re so worried about me; you should focus on my mom... or maybe that’s exactly it.” His phone rang. Matthew grabbed the device and saw it was Clayton. “Hello, Clay?” On the other end, Clayton was still dazed at the Happy Snack Bar. “Hey, Matt. I need to tell you something. Nate quit.” Matthew smiled in relief. “We had another falling out.” “Geez, Matt! I know I’m not aware 10% of the story, but it’s hard to decide whose side to take!” “Come on, take my side, Clay!” Matthew raised his eyebrows. “Should I? I don’t know; sometimes Nate sounds like you’re the enemy.” Clayton sighed. “I just wish you two would get along.” “That’s impossible given the circumstances of our past. Does he still think he can defeat me and take control of the cong
