Laura is still in the library, sitting at her desk, now with her cell phone in hand to dial the number for Gomes Estates.

But she keeps looking at the saved number, and she keeps thinking, thinking...

After deciding, she goes to the saved contacts and chooses Reginaldo's number.

On the other side, Reginaldo is in his office working when he hears his cell phone ringing.

Seeing the name 'LAURA' on the caller ID, Reginaldo gets a little tense. Should he answer?

Remembering that Laura acted civilly during the divorce, he decides to know what she wants, “Hello, Laura?”

Laura reacts relieved, “Reggie... I'm relieved; I thought you weren't going to pick me up.”

“And why wouldn’t I listen to you?” Reginaldo asks the rhetorical question.

Laura pauses for a few seconds and decides to cut right to the chase, “Reggie, I was looking around for empty stores to rent or buy, and I found a spot on Seashell Street that will be perfect for my clothing store.”

Reginaldo narrows his eyes, “OK, you can cal

    At Gomes Estates, Reginaldo goes to George's desk. He is working hard on his laptop.“George, I need to talk to you.”“I'm listening.” George keeps his eyes fixed on the laptop.“Laura telephoned to inform me that she wants to rent a commercial store on Seashell Street. I looked into our system files and found that the location is under your command.”George opens the system and types in a few search commands, “Yes, my phone is in the banner.”“Well, I can already tell you that Laura is convinced to make the lease.”George looks questioningly at his best friend, “Huh? The location is not close to the other fine stores. The store was a place to sell household trinkets! What does Laura want to set up?”“A fancy designer clothing store,” Reginaldo responds, also feeling suspicious.“High society clientele won’t go there.” George responds flatly, “I can help, but just to guide her, Reggie.”“OK, at least you are already on notice.” Reginaldo blinks and walks away.George smiles pityingly

    Reginaldo is back in his office, standing, looking out the window at the city skyline. He is pensive...Aline enters the office with an open-front graphite pantsuit, matching long pants, and a crossbody bag. A smile adorned her professional appearance.“Dear...”Reginaldo turns to his beloved and smiles equally, “I can't believe it...”“Yes, I sold the apartment! I got it!”Reginaldo approaches with long strides and hugs his girlfriend very tight, “Congratulations, my love! I knew you could do it!”“Without scandals and no one falling off the balcony?” Aline asks.Reginaldo breaks the hug, “I see you're still upset about these events.”“Reggie, I don't think I'll ever get over it.” Aline undoes the smile and becomes melancholy.Reginaldo caresses Aline's cute face with his thumb, “No, my love, don't think about these tragedies... when you keep selling and triumphing, when you make Sabrina and Bianca lick your high heels, when we both defeat our enemies, you will forget about all this.

    Reginaldo and Aline continue to talk in his office.“Sweetheart, before you have a jealous fit and cause another scandal, I need to prepare you for the bombshell.” Reginaldo directs her to the desk.“What is it, honey?” Aline asks sweetly.“Laura called me.” Reggie informs her, “She wants to open a clothing store, and the space she wants to have is right at our command.”Aline undoes the smile and is dissatisfied, “Oh, no, that's a vile coincidence! And are you the one who will attend to her?”Reginaldo smiles slightly, “No, the store is on George’s list.”“Poor George!” Aline freaks out, “I need to warn Carla about this—”“Take it easy, darling, let's not get ahead of ourselves.” Reginaldo holds her hands, “George is a grown man and knows his way around.”“I trust George, but I don't trust the minx. She’ll want to seduce him when she meets him.” Aline says it as if it were a fait accompli.Reginaldo narrows his eyes, “You are a loyal friend, Aline. But if we must trust you, you must

    George visits Taddeo and finds him extremely happy.“Father, why are you so happy?”Taddeo tries to cover it up a bit, “I've been thinking, son... God has given me a little more time to live, so I want to make the best of it.”“And you will enjoy it!” George sits down, “You’ll live near me so I can keep an eye on you.”Taddeo is impressed by his son's promise, “Did I hear you right?”“The stroke didn’t affect your hearing.” George chuckles, “There's a vacant apartment next to mine. How about you live next door to mine?”“Son, the rent for this apartment must be very expensive...”“And why am I working so hard?” George leans forward, “Dad, I want to help you. And soon I’ll marry Carla, she will definitely help too.”“She has her obligations.” Taddeo is apprehensive.“Let's talk more calmly, but I'm determined.” George nods, “I don't want to have you away from me anymore. As you said, let's take advantage of the time left to be together like a family should be.”Taddeo smiles again, “OK

    Henry returns to the Ferreira Hotel. Antonio awaits him anxiously.“So, buddy? How did the conversation go?”“Hello, Tony.” Henry greets him, “What I expected has happened. She was incredulous for a few moments, but as I poured out more information, she began to connect the dots and realize I was speaking the truth.”At this moment, Antonio doesn't mock his daughter, “Poor Laura... I wonder what she must be thinking. She was married to the Fabray Network heir without knowing what happened. If Reggie was honest, she would be pretty happy.”Henry pitches his theory to the hotelier, “Tony, did you ever think that Reggie purposely concealed his identity to take advantage of your wealth? Because any man of his caliber would have protested the minute you ordered the forced marriage. Why did he accept?”“He said at the time he was afraid of my threats,” Antonio explains with a shrug.“Yes, that's what he said.” Henry nods, “But I have a sneaking suspicion that Reggie knew who you were. That'

    The heated conversation between Henry and Antonio continues.“What are we going to do from now on, Henry?” Antonio asks anxiously.“Well, I think the time has come to face Reginaldo for the first time.” Henry takes a deep breath, steeling himself, “His secret is gone.”“If I know my daughter well, she will call Reginaldo demanding explanations.”“And he'll know that I rushed the job. If indeed he intended to tell her the truth.” Henry scoffs.Antonio chuckles, “I'm telling you, your cousin is the biggest coward.”“Well, Tony, I don't wanna take up too much of your time.” Henry prepares to leave.“Take your time, buddy.”“You need to manage this hotel before Reggie takes it over,” Henry recalls the wound.“OUCH, don't remind me of that!” Antonio grimaces, “I knew from the start that it wouldn't be a good idea for him to employ himself here as a porter, but he got in here without my knowledge.”“So you understand how treacherous he is.” Henry holds out his hand, “See ya, Tony, we're sti

    Jacob enters the laundry room and finds a sullen Paula watching the washing machine works. She stares at the glass where the laundry is swirling with soapy water.“You don't know how to program the washing machine to do other things while it washes, rinses and spins?” Jacob asks, “You don't have to stand there waiting for the functions to end.”“Sorry, but these household appliances are too modern for my taste!” Paula neighs.“What got into you, Paula?” Jacob takes her by the elbow.“Leave me!” Paula barks, “Go gropes Mrs. Silva. Oops! I forgot, now she's single again!”“I can't believe you're jealous of your mistress!” Jacob realizes what's up and is stunned, “I didn't give you a reason to act like that.”“So nothing is going on between you and Miss Ferreira?” Paula suddenly smiles hopefully.“No, I meant that you don't have to be jealous because WE BOTH don't have a relationship! Since when did I ask you out?”Paula takes the packet of washing powder and was going to spread it on Ja

I look forward to it, Miss Ferreira!”“OK, Bye!” Laura says goodbye, more excited.George also hangs up. At this moment, Reginaldo enters.“So, any news?”“Forgive me for invading your office, buddy.” George replies to him, “But I came here quietly to insist on renting that Seashell Street shop.”Reginaldo is surprised, “Did you call Laura back?”“Yeah. Hey, you're not going to be jealous now, are you?” George jokes.Reginaldo chuckles, “No, I can tell that your interest is purely commercial.”“Exactly, no making up what doesn't exist.” George starts recording the appointment by typing on his cell phone, “Tomorrow at nine o'clock in the morning, dad here has one more contract to deliver to Mr. Castelo. He will be very happy, and so will I.”Reginaldo remembers

Although I heard the official explanation, I don't know the version of her. Why?”Reginaldo shakes his head, “Another plot by Eduardo Casemiro. 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

    It's Taddeo and Marianne's turn to get shocked with the bombs. 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?

Did he win, according to his last words?Still trying to assimilate Laura's words, Bartolomeo and Sylvia enter, back from the hospital.“We’re very excited for Natty's return tomorrow, son. What do you think?

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...”
