Reginaldo cannot understand why Bruno feels "traumatized" by the death of Márcio Rios. He gets up and approaches the manager."It seems that Márcio's death affected you more than your appearance expresses, huh?" he asks cautiously."Reggie, I saw his family at the wake, how devastated they were." Bruno sniffs, "It's a miracle they didn't try to get revenge or sue us.""They should sue the hotel," Reginaldo suggests between giggles."Not a chance. Smart as Mr. Ferreira is, he would claim in court that Márcio was to blame for trying to imitate Hollywood action movie heroes."Reginald shrugs. This, unfortunately, cannot be ignored."Anyway, I hope the upcoming partnership can excite you. In the meantime, I'll talk Joshua into attending the company."Bruno smiles slightly, "I have an idea. I'm going to use this news as an excuse to arrange a meeting with all the realtors. That way, Joshua will appear.""Excellent, Bruno. Well, keep up the good work." Reginaldo looks at his wristwatch, "We
Bruno is calm in his office working as he should. He's typing the motivational speech for realtors to get excited and sell more Rocha Constructions properties.The door opens and George enters, "I'm back, Bruno.""I didn't even know you were out!" Bruno comments ironically."I needed to check Laura Fabrics' vandalism," George comments dryly."Oh, yes, we need to be careful about that, after all, the property is under our responsibility." Bruno stops typing and stares at George, "So how was it? Is she calm? Did the store have any stolen items?"George pulls up a chair to sit down, "Strangely, nothing was stolen. It looks like the person just wanted to break the window to get at Laura.""Get at her with what, exactly?" Bruno narrows his gaze, "The poor girl has already suffered enough, as far as I know. Being the daughter of a crazy hotelier and morally responsible for the death of our colleague..."George rolls his eyes. There goes Bruno mentioning Márcio again! "Let's not deviate from
The next day, Antonio is getting ready for another day at work, whistling and turning on the air conditioning in his office."Today I have to advertise in the newspaper looking for a manager for my hotel... or maybe I can promote someone! If that person is willing to sleep with me..."Ironically, the desk phone rings and he answers it, "Hello?""Mr. Ferreira, this is the front desk. There's a lady named Sabrina Guedes who claims she has a job interview scheduled with you for the position of secretary. Reginaldo Fabray's recommendation. Is that true?"Obviously, that wasn't true, but Antonio's curiosity got the better of him, "Send her through, it's true!""OK." The doorman hangs up.Antonio narrows his eyes. Who is the lady who comes from Reggie? Sabrina Guedes? He's never heard of the minx.He sits down at his desk and starts surfing the Internet. In the first tabloid he accesses, the news of the vandalism in Laura Fabrics raises his good mood."Oh, Laura... Ever since you walked awa
Bianca flies into a rage when she hears Joshua call her dumb. She strides into the room, "Hey, tell me who's the dumb one who won't bully you? You think you'll be spared my wrath?""What wrath, you crazy girl?" Joshua fiercely questions her, "You, as seen, haven't learned your lesson! You really are a hardened dumbass!""SHUT UP!" Bianca moves her hand to slap Joshua, but Bruno catches her in time."Hey, Bianca, don't do that!" Bruno pleads with her, "Sabrina is gone because of these messes, I don't want you to go too!""And you didn't need Sabrina, Mr. Castelo?!" Bianca asks outraged.Bruno shakes his head, "No, Sabrina was a mere secretary who will be replaced today. You, on the other hand, have been my realtor since the 2000s. Do you know the difference? You are the one who brings the money to the company, while Sabrina was just the expense!"Bianca gapes in horror at the thought of her boss. Then she tries to formulate the sentence, "But... but then... even if that were correct...
Sabrina tries at all costs to defend herself against possible aggression from Antonio. She gets up and pushes him hard, "Mr. Ferreira, I didn't come at the behest of Reginaldo Fabray. If the previous secretary was spying on you, I have nothing to do with it!""Then how did you even know his name?" Antonio counters."We met when he lived next door to my apartment, we were neighbors." Sabrina asserts, hiding the racy details.But Antonio smirked, "Translation = he left you unable to walk the next day after staying up all night making you scream in pain and pleasure. You, women, are all sluts!"Sabrina can't take it anymore and slaps the rogue. Is that the wonderful plan Bianca had in mind?"Forget it, I thought you wanted an ally to defeat Reggie Fabray, but...""Hey wait!" From here Antonio's brain started working again, "You definitely didn't come to spy on me?"Sabrina slaps Antonio again on the other cheek, "You idiot! How did you manage to build the most famous hotel in the city?"
Antonio returns with a platter containing cups of coffee. Some bellboy unlocked the door for him. Sabrina was amazed that the door had been locked, she hadn't realized that."Okay, a fresh cup of coffee for my guest." Antonio says bizarrely, "Help yourself, Miss Guedes, and explain to me how you can help me."Sabrina took a deep breath. As she was already there and saw that the beast was tamed, she decided to take a chance, "Well, as I said earlier, I was fired for being against Aline Mendonça. She showed up at Gomes Estates without having a job interview scheduled. I tried cast her out like the commoner she is, but I've been reprimanded."Antonio is delighted with the information, "That is, this is how Aline demoralized the company, having sexual relationships with the male brokers, culminating in the death of one of them in my hotel.""Exactly." Sabrina beams, "Imagine, sir, my shock when it came out that Mr. Fabray was married but was getting divorced to marry the minx!""He also k
Reginaldo arrives at the ill-fated Gomes Estates meeting, where Bruno, once again, is evoking Márcio's memory. All realtors are embarrassed by the manager's warning."Hello, guys!" Reginaldo closes the door and greets them happily, "I'm not hearing the cheers. Or has Bruno not broken the news yet?"George quickly responds, "Yes, we are aware of another Rocha Constructions real estate development that we'll be selling. We stopped shouting because you came in."Sérgio adds, "Exactly, let's pop the champagne when this is all over."Bianca only thinks of one thing, "Where is Aline?"Another awkward silence. Reginaldo stares at her icily, "She's at home, planning the wedding with Carla.""Oh, how wonderful!" Bianca whines, "The imbecile here couldn't be absent, but the boss's girlfriend can be absent from company meetings! How wonderful, how fair and egalitarian the system is.""SHUT UP!" Joshua screams demonized. If he hears Bianca's cackle one more time, he loses his sanity just like in
Reginaldo takes control of the meeting. Bruno decides to choose another chair to sit on."So, do you already know the name of the next development? What will it be? Apartment building? Residential condominium? Luxury or for the poorest? Where will it be, Sunset Village, Green Park, Happiness Slum?"All realtors remain silent."Can ANYONE tell me something?" Reginaldo loses his temper, "Of course not. You stay there, cursing and accusing each other, arguing and plotting tricks like elementary school kids, while the world spins and our competitors don't sleep!"Bruno raises his hand, "Reginaldo, we can find out about the project right now.""That's exactly what I want you to do!" Reginaldo shoots them a warning look, "Just look for me to talk about business, understood?"Nobody dared to answer, but they got the message.Reginaldo leaves the conference room and slams the door.But instead of concentrating on their work, Bianca does just the opposite, "See? You are the disgrace of Gomes E
