Reginaldo enters his office with George behind. The friend is curious about whether or not Reggie will be with Laura.Reginaldo replies as soon as he closes the door, "George, I can't marry Aline.""Then why do you bother Márcio?" George shoots the question at point-blank range.Reginaldo frowns, "Because Márcio just wants to treat Aline like a sex doll. I won't allow that. If Aline commits suicide alleging a lack of usefulness in life, I would never forgive myself."George scratches his chin and sits down, "I don't know. That, to me, is the attitude of someone who is in love. For someone married to another woman, you are very protective of Aline."Reginaldo sits at the desk, equally thoughtful, "I hope Aline doesn't get a bad impression. I'm just a friend who sees something more in her than 'no-wears-panties'."George is pragmatic, "Man, I repeat: if you are not even interested in keeping her as a lover, then stop preventing Márcio from being with her. Aline will never learn to take
Henry and Cássio go on talking about what they think of Reggie.Henry is very excited, "Do you understand what I'm getting at, buddy?"Cássio is wide-eyed, "Cousin... You could be right!""I'm sure I'm right." He replies in a proud tone, "I might as well show up at the hotel and catch Reggie acting like a porter in those ridiculous uniforms.""Why the hell did he want to lead this mediocre life?""As I recall, he quarreled with Uncle Bart over how he should take over the business and walked away. But our imbecile uncle never thought of passing the throne to me." Henry pouts childishly."If Uncle Bart is actually making contact with Reggie in Lagoon City, it means they've made up."Henry rages, "And that affront of eating chocolates in front of us meant he's aware of everything and wanted to provoke us!"Cássio gestures and lowers his head, "So Henry, let's forget about the plan and accept defeat before our uncle reports us to the authorities."Henry gets bloodshot eyes, so much spite,
George enters his loft and goes straight to a broken Aline who sleeps in bed after endless sex with the host."Aline, wake up!"He shakes Aline roughly and callously. Aline wakes up thinking that George wants it again..."Hi, George. You haven't taken your clothes off yet."George is embarrassed. Aline has never uttered a comma of protest at the perverted treatment she's been getting since she set foot in the loft. He nods, remembering Reginaldo's words about Aline being extremely weak and a pushover."Aline, don't be a pervert. You need to get up and buy new clothes with the money Reggie gave you. He'll get you a new apartment so you can continue to hide from your evil parents."Aline asks sweetly, "And is Reggie going to visit me?"George gets angrier, "Reggie is married to that Laura Ferreira and he won't divorce her for you, creature! Wake up to reality and get to grow a backbone!""Don't be cruel to me, George." She pouts, "I thought you wanted to help me.""I'm helping you." He
Natalia is talking to a member of her team via video call. Henry and Cássio enter her office from behind without warning her first.Natalia is excitedly commenting, "Congratulations, Alexia! You managed to sell the penthouse in Praia do Canto! Your commission will increase this month, huh?""Oh, friend, tell me about it! It was so good to have managed to put out a better proposal than that David! The client liked what I offered so much. Onward to victory!"Henry seethes with anger and spite. David is on his team.He appears in the office and stands face to face with Natalia like a bull snorting in Spanish bullfights."OK, Alexia, I need to hang up. Bye!" Natalia turns indifferently to the visitor, "What do you want, Henry?""I want you to pass this sale on to my team now! David was the one who was negotiating this penthouse with the client! Your saleswoman stole our sale!"Natalia hardens her gaze and stands up, "It was Alexia who made the first contact with the client. I don't know h
Laura is very uncomfortable with the fact that Antonio knows everything about her life thanks to Eduardo. Antonio is astonished and tries to hide it.Antonio tries to slip away, "I don't know what got into me, daughter. I'd better leave."Laura grabs her father's arm, "No way! You are now going to confirm that you are dealing with Eduardo!""Confirm? Do you already take the matter for granted?"Laura gapes for a few seconds, "I can't believe it! You still want to deny it! Dad, stop playing games with me, I know you're helping Eduardo to bother Reggie! What amazes me is that Eduardo accepts such a degrading condition!"Antonio feels offended, "Why is it so bad that your father helps Eduardo, huh?""Because it's obvious that you just want to stir up intrigue between me and Reggie! But I won't let you, do you hear me?"Antonio smiles evilly, "OK, since you want peace and harmony in your marriage, then it's not good for Reggie to know about your little sex with Eduardo on the beach, right
It's already night. At the Ferreira House, Reginaldo comes out of the closet wearing shorts and a t-shirt, both good brands. He never wore ragged clothes again, much to Laura's delight.He takes out his cell phone and makes a call.On the other side, Anestor already has his cell phone to his ear."Hello, master?"Reginaldo is alert, "Anestor, how many times have I asked you not to call me 'master'? Has your neighbor left already?""I just got here. I'll check to see if she's still sleeping." Anestor looks towards the open bedroom door."Ok, but you can't be too careless. So, how did you get together with Aline?"Anestor responds as if he were a policeman, "It's all set, boss. Tomorrow I'll take her to the hotel. Antonio said that Eduardo intends to make Aline his trophy wife. Master..." He clears his throat, "Are you sure that are you doing the right thing?"Reginaldo goes to the suite door and opens it. Seeing that Laura is not nearby, he closes the door and sits on the bed."Anestor
The next day, Natalia is talking to Matias in her office about the interrogation that Henry submitted to her, even more so after he found out that he had lost an important sale.Matias has a dark and menacing face, "Honey, what did you say to him?""I just shooed those two out of here."Matias smiles, "I'm so glad you knew how to take care of yourself. I still feel like crap for not being around to protect you."Natalia melts like butter, "Well, don't be, honey. I love you and I know you always think the best of me. But, we also have work to do. I know you've been out selling a country estate in Fundão.""Yes, but it's no use for me to take first place in sales with you underground, buried in a cemetery. I need to have you with me until we're old."Matias and Natalia smile at each other, then hug and kiss.Henry walks in at this point and grimaces in disgust at the scene, "Argh, don't turn the office into a porn movie studio!"Matias and Natalia move away and strafe their cousin with
Anestor feels cornered after letting slip in calling Reginaldo 'master' when even George doesn't know his friend's true identity.George doesn't even care and demands explanations, "I'm waiting, imbecile! Why did you call my friend 'master', what the hell is that?"Anestor responds in disguise, "I must introduce myself properly. My name is Anestor Vieira and I have come to Mr. Silva's job to transfer Miss Mendonça from hiding."Aline is sweet, "Thanks, Anestor. I didn't know Reggie had a butler.""Ehr... He doesn't. I worked as a servant at his house and Reggie still hires me for certain jobs."George raises an eyebrow, jealous, "And are you going to take good care of our friend Aline?"Aline turns to George, "Don't worry, George, we can trust Anestor. He saved me from being raped by Eduardo after the autograph session months ago."George is dumbfounded, "And now Reggie wants you to willingly go to the same rapist?" He tugs at his hair, "What's going on in this world?"Anestor respond
