At lunchtime, Laura came downstairs after taking a shower. Paula didn't question why her boss was walking slowly, she assumed Laura was devastated by the divorce news.

In fact, Paula is walking slowly because of the illicit activity she had with the new driver.

Paula starts serving lunch, "Hello, boss. Eat, you look very sad to me."

Laura was without makeup, "Am I sad?"

"The boss told you he's going to divorce you." Paula tries to confirm.

Laura disguises herself by stating, "Oh, yes, it's true... Yes, Paula, I'm very sorry... But how did you know? I didn't see you this morning."

"Boss Reginaldo locked me in the library when I threatened to tell you before him what he intended!" Paula blushes in spite, "He even slapped me!"

"I'm sorry, Paula."

"Miss, you're not going to let this go cheap, are you?" Paula adds more fuel to the fire.

"I will double your salary to pay for your silence."

"SILENCE?" Paula puts down a platter of lamb loin with a bang, "I don't care about silence. I want to

You'll feel like you're on the boulevards of Paris.""Wow, do we have designer stores here?" Denise's eyes are shining."Absolutely. Get your credit cards ready." Eduardo giggles.As they head for the elevator, Eduardo's cell phone vibrates. While they wait, he checks who it is and smiles slyly."Who is it?""Laura Ferreira, the promiscuous woman I told you about.""Oh, the one you're really in love with?"

You weren't like that!"Reginaldo smiles mischievously and smooths his hand over his chest and his ripped belly, "I know, I was thinner and blonder. But in these four years, I changed my appearance and my last name so that no one would recognize me."Aline gets angry, "I don't believe it! Thousands of people would love to be in your shoes, but you just ignore the wealth and power you have and prefer to live incognito as a popsicle salesman!"Reginaldo gets up and approaches Aline. He's wearing sweatpants, "Honey, I had a nasty fight with my family and walked away from the real estate market. I wanted something else for myself. The Fabray Network is a snake pit. I have two hateful cousins ​​who even tried to poison my father to obtain the throne!"Aline gapes, "How awful!""Thank God, the butler Anestor tracked me down and fille

    Reginaldo is having breakfast with Aline. She was the one who made the toast with scrambled eggs and bacon. The latte was perfect and the apple was fresh."Why do I feel like you're already acting like Mrs. Fabray?" Reginaldo jokes."Maybe because I'm considering myself like that?" Aline jokes."Thank you, dear." Reginaldo takes a sip of coffee, "But I wanted to know something: do you want to work with me or do you want to take over your father's bank?""Can't I just be Mrs. Fabray, just like Melissa Rocha Montanha, Elisa Bento Neves, Diane Montanha, and other Lagoon City society ladies?" Aline asks as if working was torture for her.Reginaldo laughs, "Of course, you can. I just want to give you the option to work so I don't seem sexist."Aline shakes her head, "I'll never collude with those crazy girls. If they want to work and do men's things, let them do it, it's their choice. I chose to stay home and take care of the kids."Reginaldo gets serious, "Kids? Are you pregnant?""You ne

Did you say you're going to be my son-in-law?""Exactly." Reginaldo smiles."That will be impossible, my boy. I only have one daughter, Aline Mendonça.""I'm not interested in any of your sons." Reginaldo jokes."I meant that no one in their right mind would marry my daughter after finding out what she does.""Isn't the right term 'find out what she DONE'?"

What I can tell you now is that she's safe with me, we love each other and we're getting married."Donald starts to show interest, "Did she promise to behave with you,

    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

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...”
