In Eduardo's suite, Denise is baffled by her friend asking her why she wants to leave. So Denise thought it best to vent her feelings.She closes one of the suitcases, takes a deep breath, and fires off the first question, "Are you up from your coma just now?""I don't know what coma you're talking about." Eduardo approaches dangerously, frowning."Yes, you're awake from your coma now." Denise dismisses him, "Didn't you see that report of Mr. Ferreira vandalizing the Brisa do Mar coffee shop.""Is that a question or a statement?""Are we speaking the same language?" Denise snaps impatiently.Eduardo ponders for a few seconds, "OK. Yes, I read the tabloids. Tony turn over one table where Laura was sitting with someone I don't know.""It was the hot, virile employee I told you about." Denise smiles excitedly like a teenager, "Surely after that incident he took Laura to 'comfort' her in his bed."Eduardo rages, "Stop being a pervert and explain to me what's going on! I don't care about s
At Matias and Natalia’s apartment, the pregnant woman is helped to come under the care of her husband and parents. Natalia swears she's better, but they don't budge a millimeter."I swear, guys!" Natalia laughs at the extreme care of the staff, "I'm better than ever. My blood pressure has never been more normal than before.""Your blood pressure is normal because you're surrounded by people who love you." Sylvia comments, "And when you're around good things...""I know, I know..." Natalia sits on the couch, right where she was found passed out, "I'm going to avoid tabloids and social media.""We'll post a lot when our son is born." Matias responds with emotion, "But as for using our cell phone for gossip and intrigue, I completely agree with you."Sylvia and Bartolomeo face each other and once again communicate with each other's eyes, like the in-tune couple that they are. But this time, Matias realizes it.Sylvia leans over to Natalia and tries to lift her, "Daughter, I know you just
At Matias's apartment, Bartolomeo decides to tell his son-in-law what he discovered."Matias, Natalia told you that a clueless friend of hers told lies about Aline according to what she read in the tabloids." Bartolomeo clears his throat, "But that's not true. We know who the gossiping person was and we need to clarify this matter."Matias is surprised, "But you are angry about this. Is it really necessary?""We are concerned about the health of our daughter and grandson. And it was someone close to us who made up the slurs." Bartolomeo answers.Matias widens his eyes, "Who was it? If I can take matters into my own hands..."Bartolomeo smiles, "Do you want to, Matias? After all, you are the husband, you would have every right to avenge your wife. Well, it was Anestor who made Natty faint."Matias is furious and was about to explode like a volcano, but he remembered that Sylvia took Natalia to her room so that she wouldn't find out about it."But, Bart... Why did Natty say otherwise?"
Carla thinks she heard wrong. Bianca just accused her of talking about Laura around Aline on purpose, to hurt her best friend."Bianca, I really think you should focus on your best, which is selling real estate." Carla states with her arms crossed, "Being a witch is not your forte. You don't have the tricks of a soap opera villain.""And who said I want to be a villain?" Bianca counters."OK, so just answer me one thing: what do you and Sabrina get for picking on Joshua Dantas?" Carla asks the million-dollar question.And Bianca would lose because she just went mute."That's what I thought." Carla answers her own question with a refined look of contempt, "You are a bitter woman who only feels happiness when faced with the sadness of others. I cannot imagine you as the excellent professional who has worked here since the 2000s.""If you don't believe my resume—""I can't believe an excellent professional would come here with such a petty and troublesome attitude!" Carla asserts, interr
At Gomes Estates, Carla is tired of exchanging saliva with Bianca."Apparently, you'll never learn. We'd better stop here."Carla turns on her heel and starts to walk away, but Bianca's phrase hits her like a whip in the back, "You wanted to piss Aline off!"Carla takes a deep breath and spins around again to face the witch, "I already told you that I didn't even see Aline approaching. You saw her, you were standing in front of the corridor, but you didn't warn me so that Aline heard me and misunderstood me.""Ah, so I should have warned you to disguise your hypocrisy?" Bianca asks in a mocking tone."What hypocrisy? I didn't mean to hurt Aline on purpose, I was just reporting facts!" Carla explodes."Facts about her archenemy." Bianca approaches threateningly, "Listen here, vlogger: I've met a lot of people in this world, people of all kinds. It wouldn't surprise me if I knew what it really means to be friends with Aline Mendonça."Carla starts to get uncertain, "What do you mean?""
Aline is surprised that Reginaldo has feelings of guilt about what happened."Reggie, for Christ's sake. You invited Márcio Rios to work as a real estate agent. Everything else that happened was decisions made by him." Aline reasons, "If you look at it that way, then I'm more to blame than you are."Reginaldo gets up and hugs Aline, "No, dear, never think that!"Aline snuggles into his chest, "But how can I not think? I was the one who suggested he spend the night with me. I was the one who took the first step on a journey of debauchery and immorality.""You had no way of guessing the guy was an insatiable pervert." Reginaldo asserts, "Even I didn't know. All I saw in Márcio was a hardworking guy who would lead Gomes Estates to victory.""Anyway, Márcio had the 'brilliant' idea of imitating Tom Cruise instead of running out the front door." Aline breaks the hug, "So you don't owe him anything. After seeing how crazy Antonio is, I think the best thing you can do is take care of busines
Aline wants to know what Carla and Bianca are arguing about."Are you two talking about me while I was away?""Not exactly, Aline." Carla responds, fearful.Bianca smirks, "We were talking about the Ferreira family's importance in the vlogger's fame."Aline tastes like vomit on her tongue, "Bianca, Carla doesn't need this crazy family to be famous. Yes, many will say that she leaned on me to grow, but I didn't feel exploited. On the contrary, I was very happy to help a dear friend."Bianca can't take it anymore and explodes, "You've been used, you dumbass! Open your eyes, Carla Fortunato is a social climber!"Carla was about to slap Bianca, but Aline grabs her arm, "No, Carla, it's not worth smearing your hand on this corpse's face."Bianca insists, "Aline, pay attention to the signs, and you'll see that you've been fooled this whole time. Now that Laura Ferreira is in the tabloids, she's the one your 'best friend' will be looking for more content to her thirsty subscribers."Carla ge
The next day, Antonio picks up the morning paper while the maid is serving breakfast.When he enters the gossip column, his eyes widen at the news: 'EXTRA! Famous hotelier's wife is getting divorced!'"What? Marianne really decided to divorce? What an outrage!"The maid has her back to him and is smiling satisfactorily, mentally wishing Marianne good luck."Stop serving that crap, I've lost my appetite!" Antonio shouts at her and gets up, rushing to the master suite.The maid shrugs and eats a slice of cheese. She delights in the taste.******At Laura's apartment, she and Marianne perk up with online tabloids equally echoing the news."Ha, ha, ha!" Laura's stomach hurts from laughing so hard, "Mom, I wish I could see my dad's face!"Marianne helps herself to strawberry yogurt, "I think you better stay away from this, daughter. Maybe it's the last thing you can see before your father kills you.""Oh, you're right." Laura puts her phone down on the table and helps herself some breakfas
