Bartolomeo wants to know how Matias learned of Reginaldo's whereabouts."It was Anestor who told me everything, father." Matias informs him, "He said that Reggie instructed him to tell me to keep an eye on you since you sent Anestor to stay close to Reggie.""Absolutely right." Bartolomeo nods firmly, "My boy may be going through danger and I want Anestor near him for safety.""He told me what happened... how did he manage to survive for three years like that?" Matias furrows his brow.Bartolomeo makes 'tsk' with his tongue, "He's stubborn. He should have identified himself as a Fabray to avoid all this angst.""He was willing to walk the path of success without the Fabray surname." Matias philosophizes, "But now, he understands that won't be possible.""It's my surname that will guarantee my beloved son's revenge." Bartolomeo asserts, "I can't believe that there are such evil people like that."Matias looks at the box of chocolates, "I think I'd better take this here before you fall
Aline is annoyed by Penha's disdain over the news that she intends to move out of the house."Mother, you are the only person on the face of the Earth who laughs at her daughter who wishes to emancipate herself," Aline growls."And you are the only daughter on the face of the Earth who talks such nonsense without being prepared!" Penha replies between laughs, "With what money will you support yourself?"Carla is outraged, "Aren't parents going to help their daughter grow wings and fly?""No, we want Aline by our side forever." Penha stops laughing, "The birthday party proved that she still doesn't have the maturity to live alone as an adult."Aline stands up and stands very close to her mother, "Stop it, Mom, please! I swear I'll be more responsible! In fact, I already am! I got a job and yesterday I closed my first contract."Penha purses her lips in disdain and then retorts, "Really? And where's the stamp on your work card? Without proof, I don't believe you're employed!"Aline lowe
The gardeners who were nearby aided a dramatic and hysterical Penha coming out of the pool. It seems that being overweight and sedentary was what got in the way of her saving herself properly.Penha reacted as if she were in quicksand. She bawled like a goat, affecting the gardeners' hearing. Aline had the feeling that Penha was exaggerating the situation to make her feel guilty.However, Aline just stared at the scene with an icy, indifferent look. Carla even felt afraid of her best friend.With her straw hat ruined and soaked, Penha gasps theatrically and begins to complain, "But what is this absurdity that has occurred now? Did you want to kill your own mother, Aline Mendonça?""Think what you want!" Aline lashes out with the words, "You and Dad don't believe in reality, only what suits you! I'm leaving home as soon as possible. I've had enough of both of you!""Ungrateful, disloyal!" Penha screams at the top of her lungs, even getting hoarse, "When you get into trouble, it's us yo
Aline is hastily packing her bags, dumping everything in the open suitcases. Carla helps her by gathering personal belongings from drawers and dressers."Put it all down anyway, I don't have time for frills, Carla!" Aline speaks desperately as if Penha is going after her to kill her."Your mother has crossed all limits, my friend!" Carla wonders, "Why did she become so mean?""The damn birthday party, that's it!" Aline lets out tears, "How I regret that! If Reggie had known me that day, he would never have laid eyes on me the next day.""He's different from those rich old men who got you pregnant just by looking." Carla goes to the bathroom and removes Aline's toiletries."Yes, I hope to see him someday." Aline smiles through her tears. Little does she imagine that Reginaldo probably won't look for her anymore.******Meanwhile, Laura is shocked to see that Antonio is displeased with the news that she has finally become a wife in every way."DAD! Why did you throw the cup at me?""To
Laura returns to the Ferreira house with a triumphant smile. Anestor is tending the garden, wearing a tank top and denim shorts. The fact that he's crouched has accentuated the muscles in his legs, and Laura can't avoid the servant's back and arms as they cut through the bush.However, Laura shakes her head. She promised to leave Eduardo, she cannot now have another lover.Upon entering, she goes to the pool and finds her husband the way she always likes: swimming in the pool, doing vigorous and sensual strokes, and wearing only black speedos. Laura licks her lips and approaches the edge of the room."Mission accomplished, honey. You're going to work at the hotel."Reginaldo goes to the edge of the pool, where she is, and smiles at her. His wet hair and the drops of water dripping from his face make him sexier for Laura.She sits down on one of the lounge chairs, "I convinced the rogue to hire you. Looks like he didn't like it very much.""What didn't he like?" Reginaldo laughs."He d
Laura and Reginaldo have fun in the pool. Reginaldo can hardly believe that the woman who hated and despised him for three years was now behaving like a dear and loyal wife."Laura, I still think I'm dreaming." He declares, "It's not just that you decided to support me. It's that you went to your father's house and spoke these words.""It was past time someone put him in his place." Laura shrugs her shoulders with an immodest smile, "He always dictated the rules and demanded that everything be done his way. Well, today I showed that people have desires and goals too.""And what will my role be at the hotel?" Reginaldo approaches her.Laura is afraid of displeasing him, "I'm sorry, honey, but I think Dad is going to troll you by giving you a job as a waiter or porter."But Reginaldo doesn't get upset, "Whatever. I'm sure with my skill and charisma, I'll manage to be promoted to higher positions. Unless the rogue sabotages me."Laura shakes vehemently, "No, never that! He won't harm you
Monday, work day. Reginaldo woke up in the master suite instead of the other bedroom. Laura was nestled against his broad chest, and he was naked after another grueling night of marital activity.Reginaldo gets up and tries to look for his clothes that have been scattered inside the room. Laura smiles and yawns."Good morning, darling.""Good morning." Reginaldo decides to go to the closet to get clean clothes, "I couldn't find my briefs.""It fell off the balcony. You threw it so hard..." Laura giggles with her hand over her mouth and behaves like a maiden.Reginaldo smiles as he chooses other pieces of clothing. What's happening? Before they hated each other, but now are they mating worse than rabbits?Anestor still hasn't gotten used to it. When he entered the Ferreira House, he felt the atmosphere charged and oppressive. But now, when he serves breakfast in the kitchen, he finds it light, fresh, and sunny.Reginaldo and Laura talk and laugh as if they were in some margarine commer
Reginaldo arrives at the Ferreira Hotel and smiles like a boy about to play a prank."Today the rogue is going to have another heart attack!" He speaks through his teeth, amid the in-and-out of guests.Upon entering the lobby, the same receptionist is already picking up the phone to warn Antonio, but Reginaldo gestures at him."No need to keep warning, my friend. He's waiting for me.""Sir, it's customary to inform the hotel owner who is going to visit him." The boy responds, apprehensive."I'm not going to kill him or harm him. You can search me if you want." Reginaldo opens his arms as if he already has someone to do it.The receptionist smiles and capitulates, "OK, but then don't mention me.""Never! I think we'll see each other more often." Reginaldo thanks him with a nod and enters the corridors to Antonio's room.Antonio was taking a pill prescribed by the doctor to recover from his cardiac arrest. But when Reginaldo enters his office, Antonio gets a fright and spits out the wat
