The Tide of Fortune Chapter 681 Concern Renewed
Reginaldo's cell phone started to ring, interrupting his reading. Although Reginaldo wasn't in the mood to continue reading. Seeing that it was his father, he answered.“Hello?”On the other side, Bartolomeo was at ease in the master suite of the Fabray mansion, leaning against the head of the bed, his chest visible and the silk and cotton blankets covering him from the waist down. Sylvia was in the bathroom brushing her teeth.“Hello, dear son. Have you read the news yet?”“Yes, Dad,” Reginaldo sighs despondently, “And Aline already had her panic attack.”“Poor Aline.” Bartolomeo shakes his head, “We're talking about yet another murdered person who has a connection with her, with you... I wonder what's going on?”“Dad, I don't know.” Reginaldo responds firmly, “I might be going crazy, but it looks like someone wants us to somehow go to jail accused of murder.”“That's what it looks like.” Bartolomeo scratches his forehead, “Or at least, someone hopes you'll have your reputation ruine
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 682 Was it a Woman?
George sits in the armchair while Carla sits next to Laura.“Laura, explain it to us better.” Carla asks, “The sergeant reopened the case... what does one thing have to do with another?”“Don’t you see the connection?” Carla widens her eyes, “Eduardo was a friend of Antonio Ferreira. Sergeant Oliveira will think that whoever killed Eduardo killed Mr. Ferreira, and we will be questioned again!”Carla rolls her eyes, “Oh, I can already imagine his scowl coming over here wanting to know when was the last time we saw him!”George is alarmed, “But Laura, why should you care? You broke up with him before the crime happened. If I didn't show up, maybe you were the person found in a state of decomposition.”“George, control your words!” Carla asks.“OK, I wronged the wording.” George gestures, “What I mean is, you saw Eduardo still alive. You didn't run into him after that, correct?”“No, I went to my parents' apartment, and then Antonio Ferreira showed up making that scandal.” Laura strains
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 683 Narrowing Down the List of Suspects
Laura is worried about Jacob showing too much concern for her.She pulls her hand back, “Jacob, I appreciate your concern, but there are a few things you need to be aware of. First, you love Denise Lynch.”Jacob for a few seconds reacts as if he's forgotten about it, but then, he pulls himself together, “And why do you think I forgot about it? I will always be your friend, Laura, no matter what.”Laura nods, “I can count on Reggie's help and protection. With him, I won’t be arrested.”Jacob wrinkles his nose, “I don't know why you think you're going to be arrested.”“I was the last person to see you alive, Jacob.”“Not really!” Jacob says, “He showed up here at the store to complain that the two of you had broken up. I had a good laugh because he didn't understand why.”Laura is pleasantly surprised, “Jacob, are you telling the truth? You can't lie in the depositions, huh!”Jacob smiles to reassure her, “I'm serious, Laura. You weren't the last person to see him. Eduardo showed up her
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 684 Run, Aline, Run
Aline desperately ran out of the kitchen, turned to the corridor towards the pool area, and with unusual dedication and skill, climbed the ivy fence, passing to the neighboring land.She was terrified, sweating, panting, and with dilated pupils.NO!The evil sergeant chose her as a ladder to his promotion!How could he even think that she, Aline Mendonça, the future Mrs. Fabray, would dare to THINK about killing someone who meant nothing to her anymore?Like Antonio Ferreira, Aline no longer had contact with Eduardo since Márcio Rios's death. There is no plausible reason for Aline to want to kill Eduardo or feel threatened by him. They didn't meet for so long.The last time Aline heard about Eduardo, he was dating Laura.But the evil sergeant wants to interrogate Aline, wants to arrest Aline, wants to put her in a cell where Aline will be beaten and bullied by older inmates!When she reached the street, she realized she didn't have her cell phone.

The Tide of Fortune Chapter 685 Photo Essay
The office door opens and George appears.“Buddy, what happened?”Vivian also appears, “Sir, your things have fallen! Do you want me to pick them up?”“Let me get them myself, Vivian. The clumsy one was me.” Reginaldo exclaims frowning.“I’ll bring you some tea.” Vivian wisely withdraws, leaving George in charge of calming his friend.George approaches the desk, “You nearly dropped the computer monitor.”“Yes, it was very close. I need to do something urgent concerning Sergeant Oliveira.” Reginaldo declares in a lower tone, however, still angry.“What did he do now?” George asks cautiously.“He went early to look for Aline. ALINE!” Reginaldo roars, “Of all the people who contacted Eduardo, he had to go to my fiancée. It's clear this imbecile is going after me.”George tries to mock Aline without letting it blatantly clear, “Ehr... Reggie, don't you think that would be a bit over the top? It's like Sergeant Oliveira is purposely bothering you.”“And isn’t that?” Reginaldo's gaze is fie
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 686 It Was Easy to Get Rid of Him
At Laura Fabrics, Laura is upset when Jacob announces that Sergeant Oliveira wants to interrogate her.“I don't have time for this, Jacob.” Laura fidgets with her hands, “I need to keep an eye on the photo shoot.”Jacob takes both her hands, “Laura, let me handle the rehearsal. I know you're innocent and you didn't kill anyone, so you'll be able to explain yourself to the sergeant. If you start acting nervous, wanting to dodge him... He won't leave you alone.”Laura ponders for a few seconds and decides that this is the attitude she should have. Smiling slightly, she agrees, “OK, Jacob, maybe you're right.”Jacob flashes his classic smile that makes Laura go weak in the knees, “I know I'm right. Take out that annoying sergeant.”After feeling that she got pregnant just from Jacob's smile, Laura goes to the store to face the sergeant.Oliveira barely utters half a word and Laura interrupts him, “Not here, sergeant, not in front of my customers. Let's talk outside.”Oliveira is stunned
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 687 A Sandal
Reginaldo was drinking water from the fountain located in the entrance hall of Gomes Estates. His cell phone rings and our hero senses something ominous...Seeing it's Faron from the caller ID, he answers, “Hello?”“Boss Reginaldo, it's me again. I have bad news for you. I found one of the sandals that could be Miss Mendonça’s.”“Oh Heavens, was she run over?” Reginaldo asks desperately, “Let’s look for the hospitals—”“No, Boss...” Faron's voice is shaky, “The sandal is lying on the sand on the beach. I'm close to Saul Neves's mansion. There are several footprints around the sandal... some of them towards the sea.”Reginaldo lets the disposable cup fall to the floor. His face is hardening.“Faron, you are not telling me that Aline threw herself into the sea out of desperation. Is that?”Faron doesn't have the heart to answer what he feels, “Perhaps we'd better ask Mrs. Mendonça...”“Take these sandals to Penha immediately!” Reginaldo screams, not because he's angry with Faron, but be
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 688 Best Friend's Words
Faron stands still for a few seconds, staring at the lost sandal that was found in the sand on the beach. Afterward, he faces Donald and Penha, anxiously waiting for the answer.“Well... Mr. and Mrs. Mendonça, I hope you don't despair because the situation is not final yet. But... This sandal was found in the sand on the beach. And there were a lot of footprints all around... even some of them went towards the sea.”Penha folds her hands and turns pale, mouth agape. Donald has a more controlled reaction on the outside, but no one can say he was destroyed on the inside.“Faron, do you think our daughter drowned? On purpose, due to the despair she was in?” Donald asks while Penha hugs him.“Boss Reginaldo doesn't even want to think about that hypothesis, Mr. Mendonça. But after you confirmed that Miss Mendonça was wearing this sandal...” Faron swallows hard, “I don't quite know how to answer. I fear that Boss Reginaldo will have a breakdown.”“I'm already going bananas at the possibilit

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...”
