Reginaldo is parking in the building where the real estate company is. From where he is, he can see the movement of clients entering the lobby. The poster of the Swan Building that Alan Rocha gave is stretched out at the entrance, causing many to feast with their eyes.Reginaldo's cell phone rings. Still in the car, he sees it's Anestor calling and answers, "Hello, partner.""Master, a tragedy has happened." Anestor is straight to the point, "And I think it has to do with Miss Mendonça."Reginaldo feels his heart beat faster, "What happened to her?""I still don't know, but tragedy befell the boy you tried to call three times." Anestor looks again at the scene of the tragedy.The ambulance arrived with the siren on and with it, the police.Reginaldo narrows his eyes, "What's that noise, Anestor? Police? Where are you?""I'm outside, on the Avenue of Ferreira Hotel." Anestor has to speak up and step away from the car, "Boss, don't be shocked. The boy you're trying to call...""Márcio R
Bruno walks among the great movement of clients waiting for service or being served. He searches until he finds George making a sale with a couple who are looking for their first apartment to start their married life."I wish you happiness from the bottom of my heart." George shakes their hands and then takes the signed contract. The couple is overjoyed and hugs each other to celebrate this achievement.As George walks into Bruno's office with his teeth bared, the manager meets him, "George, we need to talk urgently.""OK, sir! I made a sale." George thinks they are going to talk about it.As they enter Bruno's office, he slams the door ominously. George starts to think they are going to talk about something or someone else."George, did Márcio say anything about looking for Aline?"George takes a deep breath, "What's this nut up to?""First you have to confirm me.""Yeah." George sighs dejectedly, "Instead of staying here and enjoying the opening to sell a lot, he decided to go and l
Reginaldo and Oliveira enter the hotel and go to a corner of the lobby, away from the cameras and reporters who are harassing the hotel's employees."Here we can talk in peace." The sergeant comments, "I hear you, Mr. Silva.""Allow me to message my friend who works here as Mr. Ferreira's private secretary." Reginaldo takes out his cell phone and types a message.Sergeant Oliveira wonders how Reginaldo is linked to several people who will become involved in the case."There," Reginaldo holds his cell phone in his hand, "What do you want to talk about?""What do you know of your late colleague?" Oliveira asks."I know he should be with me selling apartments in a building that Rocha Constructions is building." Reginaldo speaks disappointingly, "Today was the big debut, but Márcio ran out wanting to speak urgently with Miss Mendonça."Oliveira is surprised, "Are we talking about the famous Miss Mendonça?""Herself. Márcio and Miss Mendonça had a strictly sexual and bestial relationship.
Eduardo also hangs up the phone and turns to a serene and Zen Aline, "Did you hear the phone call? If you insist on telling the police everything that happened, I'll deny everything and leave you alone with the lions, do you hear me?" Aline says with mild contempt, "I shouldn't expect manliness from you." Eduardo can't stand his hurt fragile ego anymore and slaps Aline. Aline collapses on the bed but doesn't react. "It's your entire fault. Who told you to cheat on me with the idiot? We're dating in front of the populace! I introduced you as my property on Lisandro's Show! Do you want to be branded again as immoral and a slut?" Aline remains collapsed on the bed, without uttering a comma. "You let me down, Aline, but don't think you'll get rid of me. You'll stay with me forever so that I'll always look good in the face of public opinion. And of course, I need to use you as an outlet for my carnal and primitive instincts. Antonio Ferreira will help me, nothing will interfere with hi
The movement of clients decreased at Gomes Estates. The realtors who finished serving were celebrating the giant leap in their sales quota. Bruno and George were talking animatedly in the manager's office."I lost count of how much I sold, Mr. Castelo!" George victoriously exclaims, "Now I can plan the wedding!""Who's getting married?" Bruno asks excitedly."I'm going to marry Carla Fortunato. You're invited."George notices the manager's smile fade a little."Did I say something wrong?" He asks cautiously."No, it's just that I intended to date Miss Fortunato." Bruno cleverly omits that he wanted to make Carla unable to walk like he does with Sabrina.George smiles, "Oh, I'm sorry, sir. But she chose me. In fact, I asked her to marry me."Bruno is surprised, "But... What about the courtship, and the engagement?""Well, we're dating now." George confidently responds, "And she'll be happy to know how much commission I'll earn from those sales."Bruno sighs, "It's a pity that Márcio di
Laura is on the balcony of the master suite, sitting on a lounge chair, scanning the gossip on her tablet. She smiles at one piece of specific news."Mendonça Bank will have to explain itself to the Labor Court about complaints by employees who claim to be treated like slaves." Laura giggles, "Well done, Aline. Nobody told you to mess with me. May you suffer more and have more financial and emotional setbacks. In the meantime, I'm staying with my husband."However, a tabloid update faded Laura's smile. She widens her eyes and reads aloud, "Young man falls from great heights in front of Ferreira Hotel and dies on top of a car. Police rule out suicide. WHAT?"Laura is fearful. She revels in a controversy involving Aline when she is also in trouble. She continues to read."The deceased was identified as Márcio Rios and worked at the real estate company Gomes Estates... but that's where Reggie works! Oh, Heavens...!"Laura takes the cell phone that was next to her and quickly dials her hu
Bruno and George arrive at the Ferreira Hotel and try to enter through the lobby which is clogged with reporters and cameramen. Hotel employees are on the verge of having a nervous breakdown from so much intimidation and harassment.Distracted, they don't notice that two gentlemen in suits and ties have sneaked up and managed to jump the access roulette to the administrative area."Let's go down this corridor." Bruno correctly guesses the direction of Antonio's office, "Maybe Reginaldo is around here.""The ambulance is gone." George comments, "I wanted to know how Márcio was doing.""Urgh, he must have been all smashed up, guts sticking out and bloody." Bruno grimaces, "Compound fractures and all that nasty stuff that only an IML coroner can deal with."They find Marianne's office and open it, but she's not there."Mrs. Ferreira is not there. Maybe she is with her husband, or she went to the hospital very shocked by what happened." Bruno comments and closes the door.Further on, they
Laura and Reginaldo enter Marianne's room."My mother said yesterday that she was suspected of having COVID. As seen, she is still at home being treated." Laura closes the door, "Here we can talk quietly.""Darling, I understand that you're very scared." Reginaldo hugs her again.Laura is upset, "I didn't know the guy who fell off their balcony, love, but I'm furious about another one of these!" The hug is broken and Laura hardens her eyes, "Tell me, why do these things happen?""The fault is solely and exclusively your father's." Reginaldo sighs, "Even I can't understand why he became a fan of both.""He wants to humiliate us, he wants to provoke us," Laura responds.Reginaldo shakes, "But doesn't he realize that he's been failing? First, that signing session by Eduardo where Aline was specifically invited to make a fuss... but you came out on top and became victorious, while all the tabloids raved about Aline being jealous and rowdy."Laura giggles as she remembers her triumph."The
