After taking a shower, Reginaldo goes to his cell phone. The battery had charged up to 30%. Well, there was time for at least one call, right?When selecting George's number, his friend answers on the other side, lying on the couch, watching a TV show, "Hello, Reggie! Why did you take so long to answer?""Sorry, the cell phone needed to recharge the battery." Reginaldo informs him, "Huh, I need to get out. What's wrong?""A couple appeared claiming to be your sister and brother-in-law. Didn't you tell me you were alone in this world?" George shoots at point-blank range.Reginaldo is astonished. Damn it! Why didn't Natalia and Matias say they were coming?"George, I need to take some time to talk to you. By the way, there's another matter I want to take care of." Reginaldo answers with a frown."About what you want to talk about?""When I hired you for my real estate agency project, you weren't supposed to be debauched with the girls who work with you." Reginaldo sums up the situation.
Reginaldo and Laura enter the Ferreira Hotel still as a radiant and passionate couple. Laura smiled a lot, trying to convince those watching that she was the perfect definition of a faithful, submissive wife.The photographers popped the flashes, making Reginaldo dizzy."What are we going to say to the reporters, honey?" Laura asks through gritted teeth, leaning her head on his shoulder."Let's just say we're getting to know each other better," Reginaldo responds in the same way.Those who were far away thought that the beautiful couple was commenting on another subject.When Reginaldo passes through the hallway and finds the entrance to the ballroom, he grinds his teeth in anger. Laura feels her husband's arm tighten.At the entrance, new security guards were controlling the entrance with a guest list!Memories of Aline's birthday surfaced in Reginaldo's mind. It can't be, Antonio promised to get tough, he wasn't kidding!"What's up, honey?" Laura asks him, worried.Reginald doesn't
Reginaldo doesn't know how to respond to Laura about what Anestor meant with Antonio repeating the guest list trick. He thinks for a few seconds and decides to tell part of the truth."Darling... The truth is that I told Anestor what happened at Aline Mendonça's birthday party. Yes, your father attacked again."Laura is stunned and tries to remember that fateful day, "You didn't attend the party. But I was too busy introducing Eduardo as my boyfriend. And I ended up fighting with the birthday girl who was—""OK, let's take it easy on the memories." Reginaldo wants to avoid disappointment, "As you can understand, I couldn't get in because your father made fun of me with the guest list, so I went back home. Now he repeats the joke and on top of that, denies you as a father!"Laura seethes with rage, "That's why we're going in at all costs!"As they wait, the flashes pop again. Eduardo and Aline are walking in and smiling at the reporters and photographers.Reginaldo is extremely hurtful
Anestor saves Reginaldo and Laura's night by bringing the picture frame that proves their marriage union. Now no one can say they aren't married from the picture of the two of them sitting on a park bench.It was a day when Antonio, willing to annoy and humiliate the couple, dragged them to a picnic so they could interact as husband and wife. It was one of Reginaldo's worst days of his life.However, the security guards won't think their smile was fake. And that's exactly what happens when the security guard sees the frame that Laura almost rubs in his face, "What now, Mr. Guard? Are we married or not?"The burly security got awkward. Only married or betrothed people would put such a picture in a homemade frame. And to add to the proof, behold, Antonio and Marianne were standing behind the bench."Well, this photo changes a lot." The bouncer admits, "Especially with Mr. Ferreira's wife..."As if luck hadn't turned on them, Joshua walks down the hall, working the night shift, and scold
Marianne smiles pleasantly when she sees her daughter willing to put Antonio in an asylum. She felt this was necessary for their peace of mind.When she takes her cell phone out of her purse and starts to search for asylums in the browser, the characteristic noise of a microphone being turned on and tested reaches her ears.Marianne looks up and Laura finds the same platform that serves for the band to play. In it, Eduardo has a microphone in his hands."Testing, one, two, three, testing... Hello, dear friends and readers, welcome to another autograph session of my wonderful book 'Love Arrived to Stay'." Enthusiastic applause and many camera flashes, "It's with great pride that my editor informed me that I have placed myself among the ten most read writers of 2021, and also one of the best sellers. I can only thank God first, my family who supported me, Marçal Publishing, and all my dear fans. Thank you!"Everyone applauds, except for Reginaldo and Laura.Damn it! The kidnapper is bei
After Reginaldo and Laura kiss, Reginaldo thinks he will have to ask Anestor to stop the photos from being published. If any newspaper recognizes him as Reginaldo Fabray, heir to the Fabray Real Estate Network, his cover will be blown.Eduardo is totally stunned to see for the first time his very elegant and refined rival in a costume that even the writer could not calculate the price of, "Reggie, how did you get this very expensive tuxedo? What store did you steal it from?"Reginaldo laughs like a sovereign, "You fool! Have you read any news about a men's clothing store robbery?"Eduardo glares at Laura, "Did you buy that tux from the damn popsicle salesman?"Eduardo already knew that Reginaldo had changed his profession, but he had to feign ignorance to disguise his involvement with Antonio.Reginaldo replies with dignity, "I'm now working here at the hotel, as a porter."Eduardo laughs contemptuously, "And then I'm the fool!"Laura hugs her husband sideways, "We have to start somew
The party in honor of Eduardo Casemiro continues without the honoree, after all, the buffet is delicious, the band is playing Bossa Nova, the guests are having fun, and the night is beautiful.Reginaldo, however, cannot calm down after Eduardo drags Aline out of the ballroom. He's sure the worst will happen.Desperate, he takes his cell phone while Laura is away and dials Anestor.Anestor was in the lobby, awaiting instructions, "Hello, master?""Anestor, have you seen Aline and Eduardo?" Reginaldo asks hastily."Yeah, he dragged her out of the hotel like we were in Prehistory." Anestor laments with a frown."Follow them, I'm sure he will rape her. The party was a failure and he blames her for it!" Reginaldo exclaims paranoidly."Leave it to me, boss!" Anestor hangs up and runs to the parking lot.Outside, Anestor could see in the parking lot a madman dragging a tiny-dressed lady who was struggling and screaming for help. Strangely, people around just laugh and don't give a damn about
Anestor manages to enter the building where Eduardo and Aline live to prevent something horrendous from happening. Aline was desperate, crying nonstop, her makeup smeared with tears, and hoarse from screaming for help.Before they climb the stairs, Anestor yells imperially, "Let the lady go, you drunken idiot!"Eduardo turns to the owner of the voice and turns pale. Again the butler who was trained by the CIA?"What are you doing here?" He asks as if he were the young man in danger."Never mind, let go of the lady!" Anestor approaches them with slow steps, like a lynx about to pounce, "Can't you hear the lady refuses to accompany you?""She's not a maiden!" Eduardo yells, encouraged by the champagne, "She's a luxury escort who needs to be disciplined!""HELP!" Aline tries one more time, almost fainting from panic.Anestor accelerates his steps. Before he punches Eduardo, the coward releases Aline and hurries up the stairs. Because of the alcohol, he stumbles on some stairs.Aline hugs
