The Tide of Fortune Chapter 631 Everyone Has an Alibi
It was Aline's turn to give her statement to Sergeant Oliveira."Sergeant, I don't understand why you decided to blame my betrothed, breaking into my manor just as I was happily announcing my engagement." Aline says politely, "We're too busy with our commitments to think about killing anyone.""Do you swear that you didn’t order Mr. Ferreira's death?" Oliveira asks seriously. The tape recorder was recording."No. I said I was too happy to think about murder." Aline crosses her arms, "And please, don't act like Mr. Ferreira is a poor wronged citizen.""Is it possible that everyone thinks that Mr. Ferreira deserved to be killed?" Oliveira laughs nervously, "Will I have to arrest half the town?""You’re the one who knows." Aline shrugs, "Could be wise; or could make you to be the laughingstock of the whole town."Oliveira swallows hard. He's looking forward to a promotion. If Antonio's murder case doesn't help him, he'd better discard it.Aline sees him falter and smiles victoriously, "I
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 632 Everyone Wanted to Kill Him
Sergeant Oliveira was now trying to extract a confession from Laura."Miss Correia, I understand that you suffered a lot at the hands of your... first father, so to speak."Laura purses her lips, then impatiently retorts, "Correction, sergeant: my first father is Taddeo Correia. The guy who raised me for over twenty years was a fake father, a guy who just took me in and fed me. Love, companionship, and support were things I only get from my biological father.""So you would rather stay poor?" Oliveira asks ironically."I can't answer you because I've never been poor." Laura cleverly dodges the question. Obviously, she prefers to be rich. What kind of question is that, Sergeant?Oliveira feels he has failed in this one and continues, "OK. I just suggest that you have your reasons.""If I wanted to kill the rogue, I would have done it a long time ago." Laura turns red with anger, "You know what he put me through. You even helped him—"Oliveira pauses the recording again."Miss Correia,
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 633 Changed Script
Next Monday, Henry is having breakfast in his apartment, already properly cleaned and decorated, while watching the unfolding news about the case of Antonio's death.He smiles slyly when he sees Reginaldo's photos printed in articles and blogs.“Hmm... This is how I want to see you, cousin. Involved in scandals, murder cases... No one is talking about your real estate agency. So I gain ground.”His cell phone rings and he picks it up, “Hello... Yeah, I'm the one who posted the ad recruiting real estate agents... yeah... OK, let's set up a meeting at 9:00 am, is that ok with you? Alright, see you in a bit. Goodbye!”Henry hangs up, satisfied.Someone knocks on the door and Henry wonders who it is.He gets up and goes to answer it, “Who is it?”“Open it, son.”Henry widens his eyes in surprise. He opens the door, “Dad? What are you doing here? If Reggie finds you...”“Reggie is busy trying to prove his innocence.” Gilson speaks with a frown, “However, he will catch me in the hallway if
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 634 Reggie Isn't the Only Suspect
When George thinks that Carla is misleading his subscribers about her not attending Aline's party, his cell phone rings. It was an unknown number.George felt afraid. He guessed it was someone from the police station. Did they...?“Hello?”“Mr. Correia, George Correia? This is from the Sunset Village Police Station.”George sighs and tries to control the tremor in his voice, “I hear you, sir.”“Please report to the police station as soon as possible.” Oliveira speaks in a neutral tone, not wanting to scare off a potentially valuable witness, “We need to talk about the death of Antonio Ferreira.”“OK, I’ll come as soon as possible,” George claims.“Thank you very much.” Oliveira hangs up.As soon as George ends the call, the door opens and Reginaldo enters.“Hello, buddy. What is on your mind?”George has a slight start, “Huh? I'm fine, Reggie.”“Looks like you got some bad news on your cell phone.” Reggie smiles.George stands up abruptly, “I have to leave, Reggie. I need to perform a
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 635 New Facts?
Sargent Oliveira drags out a chair for George to sit in as if he were some kind of celebrity.“Sit here, Mr. Correia. You know, you were the only person missing for the whole family to have given testimony.”George purses his lips, then retorts, “Yes, my family was here willingly and had to dodge false accusations.”Oliveira sits in his chair, clearing his throat, “Ehr... Understand, Mr. Correia. You guys are as suspicious as Reggie Fabray—”“It wasn't Reggie who killed that old fool!” George blusters.Smiling ironically, Oliveira presses 'play' on the recorder, “According to his opinion, George Correia, who killed Antonio Ferreira?”“Impossible to answer that one, Sergeant,” George firmly states, “I just think you should quickly eliminate everyone who was at the party given at Mendonça Manor. I, for one, was there with my stepsister.”Oliveira shakes his head, “Mr. Correia, I know very well that it's very easy for anyone at that party to hire someone to do the dirty work and use the
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 636 Amid Chaos, We Have Happiness
At Gomes Estates, Reginaldo is shocked by supposed 'new facts' that have contributed to the police being even more vigilant against Aline. He approaches her and hugs her.When Aline is hugged by Reginaldo, she can see George's perplexed expression and frowns.“What is it, George? You don't have anything to do with this, do you?”Reginaldo breaks the hug and faces George.“ME?” George's voice is weak and unconvincing.“Oh, that was all I needed!” Aline rolls her eyes, “You cast suspicion on me!”“And you cast suspicion on my family!” George no longer feigns ignorance and retorts fiercely.Aline justifies herself, “But you have more reasons to kill Antonio than I do! It had been months since I'd seen or spoken to him. Why would I kill him just now? No, in your case, that incident that occurred hours before my party would be reason enough for your father, Marianne, or Laura to do the job!”George is forced to agree, but he doesn't want any member of his family in jail, “I know, and I con
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 637 The First Pre-Trial Detention
The next day, Reginaldo discovers, to his horror, that Bartolomeo and Sylvia have been summoned to testify at the police station.“This is an outrage!” Reginaldo blusters, “I'll complain to his superiors immediately!”“Reggie, don't be unreasonable.” Sylvia reassures him as if Reggie is ten years old, “Mummy knows what to say to that bad cop.”And Reggie reacts like he's ten, “I don't want to see you arrested, Mom!” He hugs her.Aline is moved by the scene. They say that a man who has a good relationship with his mother makes a good husband.Bartolomeo smiles and pats his son's shoulder, “Don't worry, son. Let's call our lawyer for advice.”“Fortunately!” Reginaldo breaks the hug.“The ironic thing about it all,” Aline jokes, “is that you wanted to kill Antonio and we even arranged for it, but it wasn't you!”“A good soul did the job.” Sylvia wryly states, “May the police never find who did it.”Natalia appears from the kitchen. Because of her pregnancy, she already had breakfast, “Gu
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 638 A Suspect Got Away
George chokes on the bread and cranberry jam he's been swallowing.“Cough, cough! Argh, what's going on?”Carla approaches the sink and tries to listen better, “Darling... Does it look like the police are looking for Eduardo?”George frowns, “Carla, now that you mention it... I haven't seen our stoner neighbor!”Carla smirks, “Don't tell me he...”Carla and George hear the noise of objects being turned over, drawers being opened, more doors being broken into, an assistant yelling 'police!' all the time...Then the realization, “There's no one here, sir!”Carla and George widen their eyes.When they barely recover from their surprise, someone knocks furiously on their door.“POLICE! Open up, we know there are people here!”George gestures for Carla to stay where she is and proposes to attend to the authorities. Carla is embarrassed, as she is still in her nightgown and George is still only in his striped boxer shorts.But George answers them that way to provoke the cops, “Yes?”Oliveir

Aline breaks the silence when she sees Reginaldo meditating, “Don’t worry, Reggie. I know the whole story that was in the newspaper. Denise Lynch was the killer. 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. So, Laura started dating Eduardo again. But he continued to be the crazy stoner he always was. Laura ended her relationship with Eduardo again. He got angry because the relationship between Denise and Jacob remained intact. He demanded that Denise help him win Laura back, otherwise, he would tell Jacob that Denise won him over on purpose. Denise despaired, saw a rock near her, and...”Aline sighs, “God, this isn’t very Christian, but
Chapter 791 A Haunting?
Reginaldo stopped the BMW at the entrance to the Fabray House gate.As Faron wasn't there, he got out of the car and opened the gate manually. Automatic gate, only at Mendonça Manor.But when Reginaldo went back to the driver's door, he felt he heard some noise.Was anyone moving in the bushes? Was a thief waiting to rob him?Thinking about how unlucky it would be to be robbed just when Faron wasn't there, Reginaldo slowly opened the driver's door, aiming for the revolver he had inside the car.If he's faster, he can arm himself in time.However, a voice made him give up his weapons.“Reggie...”Reginaldo froze for a few seconds. If he were in the desert, he would think he was seeing a mirage. But he was in Sunset Village.So, how can you explain the fact that he was seeing Aline approaching him at a slow pace, coming out of the bushes as if she were a ghost?Aline was smiling, wearing a black k
Chapter 790 The New CEO of Fabray Network
Reginaldo Fabray appeared from the corridor. It seems he was already there before everyone else, as the reporters didn't see him pass by. Otherwise, they would have spent all their film stock on him.Reginaldo was wearing his navy blue tuxedo, the one he bought at the men's clothing store in Sunset Village when Márcio Rios wore his head up and was a good person. If it weren't for Márcio, Reginaldo would be thrown out of the store as if he were a beggar.Reginaldo tried to sweep these memories out of his mind. Márcio became a hardened pervert who constantly violated Aline, losing his life as a result.Aline, another problematic woman, caused him a lot of headaches by getting involved with other guys before deciding on him, and then, when she needed him the most, instead of trusting him, she decided to waste the gift that God gave her.George and Carla, those friends who proved more treacherous than Henry and Gilson, were deservedly exi
Chapter 789 Who Remained Faithful and Loyal
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
Chapter 788 The Family Will Stay Together
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
Chapter 787 Too Many Bombs Exploding At Once
Joshua doesn't understand why George is saying goodbye once again.George thinks he will avoid the confrontation by starting the car and leaving for Gomes Estates.But Joshua palms the steering wheel, almost making George lose control of the direction.“OK, now you can explain to me what’s going on here?”“Josh, don’t make a fuss,” George states calmly.“What’s all this talk about Paris? 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? Th
Chapter 786 Paris Is a Beautiful City
Reginaldo was paralyzed in the same way that Henry was before confirming his villainy.What's going on here?Does that mean he, out of nowhere, lost the fiancée he loved so much because of Henry?Does this mean that Henry finally managed to harm Reginaldo in something? 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? Do you think Natalia should spend some time here at the mansion, or should we leave her in her apartment, alone with her husband?”Reginaldo reacts quickly, “I think it's better to invite her to spend a few days with us, Dad. 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
Chapter 785 Text Message
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
Chapter 784 Reckoning Between Brothers
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...”
