At night, Denise opens the door to her apartment and welcomes Jacob.

"Good evening, Jacob. Glad you came."

Jacob smiles at her, "Good evening, Denise. Thanks for having me."

Denise notices that Jacob came in a white tank top and shorts, clothes that are easy to remove when they go to bed. She's wearing a knee-length pink dress, hiding the nightgown she bought, but she feels like a nun in front of the visitor.

Jacob seems to have noticed her bewilderment, "It's hot today... you didn't expect me to come in an Armani suit, did you?"

Denise shakes her head, "No, I understand you."

Jacob notices that there are candles on the dining table and the pots are steaming. He sucks in a breath and his nostrils pick up the scent of lasagna Bolognese.

Denise goes to the fridge and takes out a bottle of Spanish wine.

Jacob, with his famous smile, takes the corkscrew and opens the bottle for her, "Don't hurt your pretty hands."

"Thanks." Denise returns the smile. She goes to the kitchen cabinets and ta

As for Laura, well, we were never great friends, so it's only natural that she—""No, I don't want you to be fighting." Eduardo frowns, "It's enough for Laura to fight with Aline Mendonça. I want my girlfriend to stop making enemies because then she will never be victorious in this world.""Exactly!" Denise agrees with him, "What makes us successful are friends and connections. Nobody wins as a lone wolf.""OK, Denise, I'm sorry if the article upset you, but it wasn't me.

Jacob finds this unusual."For you finally leaving my girlfriend's conscience in peace!" Eduardo states, "Laura was feeling guilty, thinking she gave you some hope."Jacob tenses, "How many times do I have to say that I wasn't and I’m not in love with Laura Ferreira?"Eduardo smiles mockingly, "As many times as you want. I know that's not the truth. You were dying to have nights of ardent love with her and you didn't understand why she chose me. Now, you have another girl who likes you and matches you."Jacob smirks, "Are you sure you came to say thank you on Laura's behalf?

Matias opines, "He saw that he no longer had the influence and respect he had before.""It was he who lost that very influence!" Reginaldo cries out, "Who told him to disrespect my girlfriend?""Nobody," Natalia answers him, "I just hope he doesn't blame Aline either for working for your main enemy."Reginaldo shakes his head, "Anyway, now that you know where the coward is, you can tell my father and he'll take care of the rest.

You couldn't just let this matter drop, huh?”Laura revolts, “Let the subject drop? Mom, what do you get for making me think I was the daughter of that monster?”Marianne shuts up.Laura continues, “As I've told you before, knowing the truth is like taking a yoke of lead off my back! Now I have a free conscience!

    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

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...”
