Reginaldo is entering the master suite and turning on the light when he feels his cell phone vibrate in his pants pocket. He picks up the device and sees it's Anestor.

"Hello, Anestor! What happened? I barely got home and we already have problems?"

"Master, Henry managed to get close to Antonio Ferreira and set up a meeting with him on Monday. Your father-in-law just informed me so I wouldn't bar him from entering his office."

Reginaldo is astonished, "Private conversation in the rogue's office? What intimacy is this?"

"I think your cousin wants to ask your father-in-law about you."

"Then ask." Reginaldo smiles confidently, "It's obvious that Antonio won't be able to answer. He doesn't know who I am. He might think Henry is crazy."

"So we'll hope. However, what do I do when he shows up?" Anestor asks worriedly.

"Try not to be around, Anestor." Reginaldo takes off the tuxedo with his free hand, "If Henry sees you in the halls, he'll find out everything."

    Laura is sipping another glass of champagne by the delicacy table. Eduardo approaches with a very elegant girl, wearing a gown as white as snow, with Irish features, and perfect red and straight hair."With how much you're eating, may I ask if you're finally pregnant with that idiot Reggie?"Laura chokes on her last sip of champagne. After clumsily depositing the glass, she turns around ready to hurl insults until she is shocked by the sight of the beautiful redhead.The girl smiles back, cultured and kind without being overbearing, "Introduce me, Eddie?""Of course!" Eduardo doesn't hide his pride, "Denise, this is Laura Ferreira, the heiress of this hotel."Laura turns redder than Denise's hair. Eduardo knows very well that she doesn't want to take care of the hotel.Denise continues to smile and extends her hand, "Nice to meet you, Miss Ferreira.""Don't you read the newspapers?" Laura greets Denise, but shakes her hand too much, "I'm Mrs. Silva.""And who is your husband?"Eduardo

    Reginaldo ponders when answering the father's question, "No, father. I can't tell Laura the truth. She would spoil the whole plan.""And how's the plan going, son?" Sylvia asks excitedly as she helps herself to cookies."I have my eye on the Mendonça bank," Reginaldo responds in a naughty way.Bartolomeo grimaces, "Argh, it's that Aline you told me about the other day. Son, she was involved in another scandal before Christmas.""Yes, and the realtor who passed away was from our real estate company." Reginaldo explains to his parents, "But Aline swore that she would behave with me, and I will be around to help her. She was massacred by the tabloids and her father's bank took a downturn in clients who sold their stock portfolios."Sylvia is in doubt, "Son, that girl was dating a writer...""Eduardo Casemiro, another enemy I intend to take revenge on.""One moment, Reggie!" Bartolomeo interrupts him, "Since you're going to divorce Laura, there's no reason for you to get involved with thi

The first Monday of the month promises strong emotions in the lives of our characters.Reginaldo wakes up in the bed of his master suite with his face indicating farewell. He looks wistfully at the space that surrounds him, aware that soon he will no longer be living in this exquisite house."It will be a pity after I file for a divorce." He talks in a low, husky voice.Laura wiggles her body beside him as if she's heard his phrase.

    Reginaldo goes back to the bathroom and finds Laura waking up. She smiles and leans back against the headboard."Good morning, my love...!""Laura, we need to talk honestly." Reginaldo still has the towel wrapped around his waist, but he doesn't want to waste time."And since when did we talk dishonestly?" Laura asks jokingly."I think our history has been marked by dishonesty ever since we met in that horrible way." Reginaldo remains somber."But that was a page turned, my love." Laura stretches, "Now we love and understand each other."Reginaldo narrows his eyes. He has the impression that Laura is making him stall so as not to say the inevitable.He sits up in bed, "Listen to me, Laura: I'm so grateful for the time you've given me support, love, and dedication."Laura hugs her husband's neck, "I do this because I love you, sweetheart!""But we spent three years hating each other and avoiding physical contact!" Reginaldo doesn't allow himself to get into Laura's mood.Laura finally

    Reginaldo and Paula enter the library. Her boss closes the door and stands behind his desk."Well, Paula, tell me what bothers you.""I had to lie to Mistress Laura after she discovered the mark of the slap you gave me!" Paula barks.Reginaldo shrugs, "That's it? What do you want with that?""I want to inform you that my mistress has just machine-gunned me with several questions about a strange conversation you started as soon as she woke up." Paula is strangely not docile and servile. She's talking toe to toe.Reginaldo hardens his gaze, "Has she ever told you that?""Yes, but that's why she took me to the bathroom. Well, boss, what do I tell her?""What are you talking about, you crazy girl? It's not to say anything, don't meddle in our personal affairs!""You want to remember the years you hated your wife. Why? Isn't it easier to focus on the present, now that you love each other, for the future to be better?""It's none of your business, Paula! The conversation ends here."Reginal

    Reginaldo realizes that Paula was faking dignity and rectitude this whole time. What she wants is money!Just as he was thinking of ordering Anestor to bury her alive in the beach sand, lo and behold, a lamp lights up in his head.What? Why would he need to resort to extreme measures?Why would he need to pay anything? He's going to divorce Laura anyway!This is what happens when we act on impulse and don't have a cool head.After thinking about it, Reginaldo smiles and starts talking to the blackmailer, "Paula, I don't know whether to fire you or leave you here to serve as Laura's adviser friend."Paula stands up abruptly, "Are you thinking of firing me?""It would be the most logical decision." Reginaldo confidently responds, "However, I intend to divorce Laura and move out of this house. I'll have another house named after me, bought with money from my hard work. Therefore, I need not fear what you will say to your lady boss!"Paula smiles evilly, "The fact that you had a mistress

    Reginaldo pulls a chair on the opposite side and sits facing Laura. Laura barely recognizes the husband in front of her."You changed." She analyzes him, "Looks like I'm seeing the same Reggie who forced me to take a lover to cheer me up...""So you never admitted you were to blame for this bullshit?" Reginaldo is surprised, "Did you think it was my fault?""Well, my father forced this marriage, and I didn't love you." Laura apologizes, "But that's changed. We love each other now."But Reginaldo is not moved, "Laura, as I said before, I thank you for loving me and supporting me in these months when I needed it. Your father is a madman who deserves to suffer all the worst things in this world. However, I think things would be easier if I just walked out of the picture."Laura shakes her head, "If you give up, my father will sing victory. And who's to say he's going to let the feud die?"Reginaldo takes a deep breath, "If I'm out of range of his cannon, the harmony of the Ferreira famil

    Reginaldo announces to Laura that they are going to divorce, but Laura, as expected, doesn't want to give up on Reginaldo."You can't leave me, Reginaldo! Not now that we love and understand each other! Why didn't we think of it before, why did you have to make me in love with you—""As usual, it's always someone else's fault, huh?" Reginaldo gets angry, "Laura, when are you going to assume the consequences of your actions?""This conversation isn't making any sense to me. Unless—" Laura gapes, "Do you have another woman?""Yes, you know very well that a man like me would never go three years without falling in love with another woman. I want to start a new life with her.""NO!" Laura slaps the table top. Reginaldo remains seated."And you know my future wife: Aline Mendonça.""WHAT?" Laura gets angrier, "Are you going to exchange me for that little minx who doesn't wear panties?""The more people speak ill of her, the more I take her side. Praise Aline, Laura, and I'll stay with you.

He brought Denise from Europe to make Laura jealous, to convince her to return to him. When Laura and I got divorced, they arranged for Denise to seduce Jacob so he and Laura wouldn't be together.

    Days passed. Fabray House became a lonely corner, just for Reginaldo and Faron.With ‘Miss Correia’ no longer around, Reginaldo exempted Faron from the obligation to wear a suit. As a result, Reginaldo was already used to going downstairs in sweatpants and finding the butler wearing just boxers in the kitchen, preparing breakfast.“Good morning, Boss Reginaldo.” Faron greets him with a respectful smile, “How have you been feeling?”“Can you believe I still wake up reaching for the now empty side of the bed?” Reginaldo sits down, telling this as if it were a joke, “Or else, I wake up at dawn and jump on her side to bang her, but I only fall into the void.”“Yeah, I understand you. Try sleeping in the middle of the bed.” Faron advises him.“Maybe that’s better, or else go hunting for the next candidate.” Reginaldo sighs.Faron puts the breakfast options on the table while Reginaldo takes his cell phone out of his pocket to see what's new.The news written by João Paulo Queiroz Rocha sur

What's going on in Sunset Village?Everything that was built or combined is being destroyed or ceasing to exist.Taddeo sits in the armchair, “Can someone please explain to me in chronological order what is happening around here? Why do you insist on keeping things private and then expect us to just accept it?”George swallows hard, “Sorry, Dad—”“Don’t ‘sorry’ me, EXPLAIN YOURSELF!” Taddeo shouts angrily.George shakes a little. Taddeo is visibly furious. If he doesn't explain soon, his father will have another stroke, probably fatal this time.“OK, Dad,” George braces himself, “First, I want to reveal that during the months I was away from Reggie, I worked in the real estate agency of Henry, the hateful cousin.”“GEORGE!” Marianne exclaims outraged.“I know, it was a stupid move on my part. I looked like a tantrum child. I wanted Reggie to know what he lost by letting me leave Gomes Estates. But he never found out, and I

What happened, did you and Reginaldo fight again?”George takes a deep breath, “Josh, Reggie’s hateful cousin has been defeated. The Mares Agency will likely be passed on to our boss, along with the team of real estate agents. However, when he and I were fighting, I was foolish enough to team up with Henry Fabray, working at his agency.”Joshua gapes, horrified.“Did you work for the enemy these months? And you still had the gall to come back to us without saying anything?”“I knew you would react in disgust.” George justifies himself.“And that’s why you thought it was better to hide this from us?

This way, Mom can help her with how to take care of João Lucas. She is a first-time mother.”Sylvia, like every mother, notices a change in her son's attitude, “Reggie, what happened?”“No big deal, Mom.”“Then why are you crushing your cell phone in your hand as if it were your uncle Gilson’s

    This was too much for Laura. She once again felt wobbly in her legs and ran back into the mansion.When she was in the foyer, about to go up the stairs, she saw Reggie on the top step, about to go down. Laura notices the excited tone of her fiancé’s voice and hides in a corner to hear what he has to say.Reginaldo goes down the stairs, laughing, “Yes, Dad, I'm very happy. I'm sure Uncle Gilson will stay quiet in Europe, enjoying Paris and Milan, and he'll never want to come back here again. Yes, he will quickly forget that he has a dead son. Congratulations, Dad. Now we can finally work in peace.”Reginaldo finishes going down the stairs and goes outside to help dispose of his hateful cousin's corpse.Laura, in turn, with her heart pounding, runs up the stairs and reaches the second floor, going straight to the suite where she and Reginaldo are.She opens the closet and starts collecting her clothes haphazardly.Then, she takes her suitcase, opens it, and puts her clothes in without f

    In the hospital corridor, Bartolomeo was serious, receiving Reginaldo's call.“Yes, son, congratulations on the mission accomplished. We got rid of Henry without bloodshed. The Bento family can rest easy this time, as we won’t involve them.”Sylvia approaches him from behind with a disposable cup in hand, drinking water from the water cooler.“OK, son, bye!” Bartolomeo ends the call and turns to her, “It’s over, honey.”Sylvia finishes drinking the water, “What’s up, darling?”“Henry was cornered by Reggie at the mansion, in one of our guest suites, and they had a confrontation where Henry kind of confirmed everything. He murdered Antonio Ferreira just so the police would think the killer was our son.”“But those who spent a few days in prison were Sabrina and Anestor, the most obvious suspects.” Sylvia smiles in contempt.“I know, darling. My brother's plan was ridiculous and full of holes. When Reggie told Henry that Paula was with us and she would report him to Sergeant Andrade...”
