In Taddeo's apartment, he and Carla are talking about the present and the future. In the living room, Carla notices that her future father-in-law is wearing a pair of denim shorts that were part of George's acquisitions and she can't control herself.“Mr. Correia—““Still with that formal treatment?” Taddeo interrupts her, “Call me Taddeo, daughter.”Carla shakes her head, “OK, Taddeo... sorry, it's the force of habit.”“Your habit is to cut formality once you are marrying my son.” Taddeo chuckles.“Taddeo... I need to ask you why George bought you so many fancy clothes.”Taddeo stops laughing, “Daughter, why did you bother?”“Ehr...I'm not bothered. Curious is the right word.” Carla tries to smile.“Well, there’s nothing to be curious about.” Taddeo leans back on the sofa, “My son wanted to do this favor to his old father. Seems like he loves me a lot, huh?”“Of course your son loves you, Taddeo, you are his hero. And he insisted on buying you a very elegant outfit to you be present
George rings the doorbell to Taddeo's apartment. He gets up and walks to the door with some difficulty in his left leg, confirming Carla's fears. When he opens the door, it's George.“Hey Dad, you didn't ask who it was. Be careful, huh!” George hugs him and Taddeo kisses him on the cheek.“I know it's you. Who else would ring my bell?”George was going to say 'Mrs. Ferreira', but he sees Carla on the couch and stops in time, “Ehr... I don't know, interesting question. But you never know, safety is key.”“Come in, son, your fiancée is here.” Taddeo gestures and closes the door.George sits down next to the bride, “So, are you getting to know each other better?”“Sure,” Carla responds quickly, hoping Taddeo won't bring it up...But Taddeo is no telepath, “We were just talking about the usefulness of the fancy clothes you bought. I told her I intend to wear them to the parties you take me to.”“Certainly, Dad, and you can be sure we'll have plenty of parties to attend!” George nods excit
Carla retires to the kitchen, “I'll get some tea, and if there isn't any, I'll put some water on to boil. We need a break here, apparently.”“I don't have tea ready, Carla.” Taddeo responds, “If you don't mind...”“No, I'd rather help.” Carla leaves in a bit of a hurry, not understanding her future father-in-law's outburst.When Carla walks away, George asks in a quieter tone, "Dad, would you like to explain to me what's really going on?"“Son, it's better that you don't know.”“Too late. I bought these fancy clothes precisely so you could look decent and elegant for Mrs. Ferreira.”“You better call her Marianne.”George smiles slightly, “See? It's clear that the two of you have known each other in the past and are great friends... or should I say more than friends with your outburst.”“Don't call Marianne a bitch.” Taddeo warns his son with a somber expression.“What is the problem with Antonio Ferreira? Did you know him too?”Taddeo is surprised, “After everything you've told me abo
Marianne in her office liked Carla and George's selfie. And she can't help noticing his daughter's young realtor.Why is she feeling a special connection with Taddeo's son?Antonio enters the office and finds his wife distracted.“Woman, wake up! We have a hotel to run!” Antonio bangs the desk, scaring his wife.“Oh, you couldn't be kinder and more careful, huh?” Marianne complains about how scared she was.Antonio snatches Marianne's cell phone and looks at the selfie, “Who are these imbeciles?”Marianne gets up angrily, “You don't know the couple and you already conclude they are imbeciles?”Antonio shrugs, not caring about anything or anyone.Marianne snatches the phone back, “They're the couple you stopped from having the engagement party here. I had to call them to apologize for the ‘fumigation’.”Antonio smiles like a rowdy elementary school student, “Friends of Reggie, I just did right.”“Yes, precisely why I apologized!” Marianne asserts, “Tony, don't you know about the big re
At the Ferreira Hotel, Marianne starts to inform Antonio that she wants a divorce, but Antonio is already reacting with revolt and resentment.“Why are you so surprised?” Marianne fearlessly asks what she wants, “You should be surprised I didn't file for divorce sooner!”Antonio seems to have woken up from a trance by asking, “Are you serious? Do you want this horrible thing called a divorce? What is going on in this world, why doesn't anyone want to stay married?”Marianne smirks, “If you're referring to Laura and Reggie's affair, I might remind you that she wanted to stay married, but you set them up. How do you expect me to stay by your side after that?”“So that's what this is about?” Antonio crosses his arms, “Woman, that marriage shouldn't even have taken place. The idiot used a fake name! I hope the Fabray family doesn't come after me wanting revenge because I was tricked by the fraudster!”But Marianne keeps unconvinced, “No, Tony, there were other ways to handle this. When yo
Aline is outraged when she hears Anestor wanting to threaten her in front of Reginaldo.“Is this serious?” She smiles contemptuously, “Now I've gone from being a lover to being blackmailed and threatened? Wow, Anestor, congratulations, you are a rollercoaster of emotions.”“What do you mean?”“I mean you have more unstable emotions than many women!” Aline mocks the butler bursting out laughing.Now Anestor changes to another emotion: anger, “Miss, don't you have a sense of danger? Imagine what would happen if my master knew that we had passionate nights of love, what would he do?”Aline stops talking and nonchalantly replies, “If Reggie finds out about this, he'll fire you. That’s simple.”“How about you?” Anestor insists.“I’ll continue to be the girlfriend and future Mrs. Fabray,” Aline responds with a confident smile.Anestor reacts mockingly, “Miss Mendonça is very confident! Do you really think Reggie will forgive this betrayal?”“I don't know; I'm just sure he won't forgive YOU
At Mendonça Manor, Aline is putting her clothes away in the closet when Anestor approaches her with a sensual smile and the steps of a Mexican soap opera heartthrob.Aline sees the butler through the mirror's reflection, “You look like a jaguar about to pounce.”“Perhaps that is my intention.”Aline snorts, “You sick man. Ever thought of consulting Sex Addicts Anonymous?”“Never, because I never want to be cured; if we can say that making love to a woman is an illness.”“No, the disease is you wanting to make love to a committed woman when there are thousands of single women out there.”Anestor is dangerously close to Aline, “Young madam, I can't believe you have forgotten my virile and potent skill.”Aline continues to laugh and sneer at Anestor, “You don't understand, do you, Anestor? When we made love, I wasn't committed to Reggie. Now I'm his girlfriend and I want to be his wife. You're not going to ruin this, understood?”“I just want to enjoy what is rightfully mine!” Anestor gr
At Gomes Estates, Reginaldo was introducing everyone to the team's new realtor, Joshua Dantas.“Guys, I want you to meet my friend Joshua Dantas. He worked with me at Ferreira Hotel and unfortunately he was fired by my ex-father-in-law. Therefore, I’ll give him an opportunity to start a new career from scratch like that with some of you.”Suddenly, Joshua's cell phone began to ring violently from the pocket of his dress pants. Bianca and Sabrina curl their lips in disdain.“I hope Joshua receives the same support and affection as always.” Reginaldo ends the presentation.Everyone applauds, except the known witches.Joshua reaches into his pocket and hastily pulls out his cell phone. He makes a face.Bruno approaches him, “What is it, young man?”“Damn it, a company that promised to hire me as a cleaner just called me!” Joshua wails with regret.Sabrina cackles like one possessed, “You idiot! You've just been introduced to all of us and you're about to leave us to be a janitor?"Joshua
