Antonio is calling Anestor, wanting to know why he is late. He waits to be answered with his cell phone to his ear."The number you dialed is out of coverage or turned off." It's the automatic response.Antonio purses his lips in displeasure. This is the first time that the efficient secretary lacks professionalism.The door opens and Laura storms in, "I'm glad you're alone. We need to talk urgently!""Laura!" Antonio gives up calling the assistant and turns to his furious daughter with a smile faker than a three-dollar bill, "How good is daddy's little princess—"SLAP!Antonio was not prepared to be slapped by his own daughter.After preventing him from falling off the presidential chair, Antonio decides to demand an explanation, "But what the hell is going on here?""That's what you deserve for slandering me!" Laura thunders, "I didn't report that prostitute you defend so much, Aline Mendonça!"Antonio gets up, "Aline Mendonça is not a whore. She is an irresponsible crazy girl who d
Bianca is surprised by Carla throwing ice water in her face. In addition to the scare, there is the fact that her makeup got smeared, and she was about to meet the posh client from Sunset Village.Bianca gasps, "What does that mean?"Carla snaps, "Can't you tell that there's water on your face? I throw it because you're a talker from Hell!"Márcio interposes between the ladies, "Hey, let's stop it now!"Carla turns to him, "Márcio, how could you stand there listening to this woman's absurdities?" She folds her arms, "Unless she's right.""Right about what?" He asks annoyed."Do you want to go back to having sex with Aline and that's all you miss her for?"Márcio is outraged and refuses to answer, "Unlike the two of you, I don't have to explain myself. Excuse me, because I have to work!"Márcio leaves furiously, with long strides. Bruno is the next to arrive and is annoyed with the result of the confusion."Oh God, more fighting... Bianca, go to your apartment urgently and touch up you
At the Brisa do Mar coffee shop, Marianne doesn’t believe that Penha managed to reverse the situation and accuses Laura of being to blame for the confusion. In front of her friends, she argues as best she can."Don't say you care so much about your daughter to defend her." Marianne tries to counter-argument."It's not about defending her, it's about showing everyone the whole picture." Penha maintains her dignity, "My daughter was wrong to make a scandal at that autograph session and we already punished her for that, but, strangely, no one spoke about your daughter!""If you're insinuating that we paid journalists..."Penha retorts haughtily, "I don't insinuate, I accuse with evidence!"The friend who spoke first gestures, "Dears, if we're not going to have a peaceful snack, I suggest we end this nasty little chat."Penha stares in disbelief at the friend, "I didn't think you girls wanted to have a peaceful chat from the start, but that's ok."Penha leaves, leaving Marianne with a rig
In the afternoon, Marianne visits Antonio in his office. Both are still outraged by what happened to them in the morning."Honey, you're not going to believe what happened to me." She begins."It can't be worse than what I went through," Antonio grumbles, staring at the computer.Marianne sits down, "I was insulted by Penha Mendonça! That woman had the nerve to question our daughter about Reggie as if he were Aline's man!"Antonio smirks, "She doesn't know that our daughter is married to the imbecile Reggie, so it's normal for her to defend her offspring."Marianne snorts, "Oh no, she wanted to make herself dignified, but the truth is, she's ashamed to have a promiscuous daughter!"Antonio breaks his smile, "Darling, isn't the situation the opposite?""Which?"Antonio leans forward, "Could it be that Reggie was playing with Aline and she was jealous at Eduardo Casemiro's autograph session?"Marianne takes a few seconds to respond, face straight, "If Reggie was with Aline Mendonça for
Reginaldo enters Gomes Estates and still notices Sabrina's absence. He goes straight through and goes to the manager's office.Bruno is attentive to the computer, recording the day's sales in the system.Reginaldo exclaims excitedly, "Good afternoon, Bruno! How are sales going?"Bruno responds with his eyes fixed on the monitor, "George and Márcio showed up and handed me the contracts." He looks at Reginaldo, "Did you come to give me yours?""Not exactly," Reginaldo responds smiling.But the smile is not contagious to Bruno, "Did you not sell, my friend?""Bruno, allow me to explain." Reginaldo pulls up his seat and sits down. His face is beaming with anticipation, "Do you remember Josias Rocha?"Bruno bursts out laughing, rocking back in his chair, "Come on, Reggie? I'm not that old!""OK, I'll let it go that you called me 'Reggie' for the first time. Well then... The client Gumercindo Tavares was not who he said he was. When I opened the door to the client, he was Alan Campos Rocha!
Laura continues to stroll and walk along the beach, thinking about life, and admiring the horizon. Seagulls fly overhead, bathers gather their things to leave, a boy digs in the sand without being able to find his father who was buried hours earlier, and street vendors count the day's earnings.Suddenly she stops at a spot in the sand.A pair of sneakers and red shorts are near a rock.Laura instinctively looks out to sea and......Eduardo is getting out of the water after swimming naked.Laura can't look away. Although Eduardo is not beefy and robust like Reginaldo, he has a fit body, not scrawny.Eduardo realizes that he is being spied on by the person he least expected. The reaction is immediate: cover the intimate part with both hands.Laura asks with a laugh, "What is this, Eddie? Ashamed of me?"Eduardo approaches with a strained face, "Now you can only look at your husband's body, which is much fitter than mine.""You know I never cared about that. You've always been efficient
It's getting dark on the beach at Sunset Village. Eduardo gradually changes his mind about Laura.He is puzzled by her, "Why did you hold back your laughter?""I didn't mean to be rude. Do you really want to burn your image by taking Aline Mendonça to introduce you as your girlfriend?""What's the crime?"Laura yells, "She's an insatiable promiscuous!"Eduardo wiggles, "Nobody can prove that. I researched it on the Internet: there is no mention of Aline Mendonça going out or sleeping with other guys. There are only two things that discredit the poor thing: her birthday party and the cardboard scene she staged in my autograph session."Laura quips, "Both events at my father's hotel."Eduardo produces a sly smile, "Therefore, no one can accuse me of being cuckold for presenting her to society as belonging to me."Laura gets even closer to Eduardo and slides her fingers over his chest, very slowly and sensually, "I don't believe she's going to stay faithful to you for a long time. All sh
After satisfying their lust like two irresponsible deviants, Laura and Eduardo are lying on the grass at the secluded spot on the beach.They can hear from afar the laughter of another young man and the crying of his girlfriend.Eduardo smiles, "Looks like another couple had the same idea."Laura tries to get up, grimacing in pain, "Eddie, you weren't that rash. If you keep this up, I won't be able to make love to you anymore and hide the pain from Reggie."Eduardo smiles lewdly, "He doesn't pound you rough like a real male."Laura wrinkles her nose as she dresses, "No. He's kind and gentlemanly, he cares about me and not his own pleasure. That's why that Aline is dying for more, but I won't allow it."Eduardo gets impatient, "Laura, I don't understand you. If you want Aline away from your husband, leave her to me! You could even help me."Laura explodes, "No, Ed! She won't be with you or anyone else! She's a slut who deserves to be lonely and abandoned in her old age full of cats in
