The Tide of Fortune Chapter 707 Remembering a Detail
Laura and Marianne go into her office and her mother closes the door.“Let's talk seriously, Mom.” Laura declares, “What's really going on around here?”“It so happens, my daughter, that I no longer trust your future sister-in-law.” Marianne sits down on the chair.Laura sits down at the desk, face-to-face, “Is that it? Mom, this has nothing to do with—”“With the fact how readily she showed up to help you get the word out that you weren't Antonio's daughter.” Marianne justifies herself, “Now, because of Carla, you are being considered a murder suspect.”Laura narrows her eyes and shakes her head, “Mother, you are mistaken. I don't understand why you never wanted me to know who my real father was. And now, you're using that as an excuse to hate Carla. I won’t go against her because of something I wanted and asked of her.”Marianne smirks, “You THINK you asked for Carla, my daughter. Probably she handled the situation so that the recording took place.”Laura ponders for a few seconds.
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 708 A Chance for Replacement
At Laura Fabrics, the shop owner grows uncomfortable and frowns when she remembers how the recording to reveal her true paternity took place.Marianne notices her daughter's body expression and smiles triumphantly, “As I suspected, she wasn't honest with you.”“Mother, this is not what you’re thinking.” Laura tries to justify her brother's fiancée, “Carla was reaching for her cell phone. It's true, I hadn't asked her, but once I saw her willing to record a video, I thought 'Why not'?”Marianne flares up, “Daughter, don't you see that therein lies the trap? She picked up the cell phone, you saw the device, something inside your mind was triggered, and then you 'decided' for Carla to make the video. She took the cell phone on purpose, already knowing that you would accept it.”“Carla was embarrassed and apologized for being impulsive,” Laura remembers.“But that was part of her act, daughter! That was pure pretense!” Marianne revolts, “Ah, the more we look at this story, the more I’m su
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 709 The Third Floor
Alone in the office, Laura decides to see how the people involved in the latest scandal are doing.She calls Reginaldo, but he doesn't answer his cell phone. She doesn't know that Reginaldo is dealing precisely with her choleric brother.So she decides to call Carla.In her apartment, Carla is kicking and knocking over countless pieces of equipment in her studio, believing that her career as an Influencer has been obliterated.“Damn... damn... After years of being by my side... After everything I've done for my subscribers, delivering them the hottest gossip, always striving to provide quality content... One single mistake and they consider me a monster! All the worries go to Aline, the promiscuous woman who leaves the house without wearing panties! Why do only the good suffer in this world?”Her cell phone rings. Carla looks for her cell phone in the wreckage of equipment.Carla's phone has a cracked screen, but she still manages to answer, “Hi, Laura...”“Carla, what a horror!” Laur
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 710 New Job for Carla
At Gomes Estates, George has managed to get everyone's attention with the decision he wants to make.“George,” Reginaldo insists, “I'm giving you the opportunity to have this professionally resolved in my office.”“Word will spread all the same!” George yells. Then he takes a deep breath and continues, “Reginaldo Fabray, it was a great pleasure to work here. But due to current conditions, I resign.”Vivian, Sérgio, and even Bruno are shocked by the unexpected news.But Reginaldo remains serious, facing his best real estate agent quitting. His look could be described as... calm.As if Reginaldo knew that was what George pretended to say.“Reggie, aren't you going to say anything?” Bruno despairs, “Are we going to let our real estate agent #1 go because his fiancée tells lies to her subscribers and it results in reproach for us?”Reginaldo turns to Bruno, “What can we do? Since being a realtor is not the same as being a full-time employee, George is free to quit or move to another agenc
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 711 What Else Is There to Happen?
Paula returns to Laura Fabrics and finds Marianne at the checkout, disheartened by the events.“Mrs. Correia, has there been a theft in the store?”Marianne smiles politely, “No, Paula. I was thinking of the American soap opera dramas that pervade my daughter's life.”“What happened to Laura?” Paula worries.“Looks like she came out to help the lying vlogger who was exposed by Reggie Fabray,” Marianne speaks with contempt.Paula puts her hand over her mouth in a vain attempt to stifle a laugh.Marianne notices this, “Did you see the video?”“The correct question would be: who has NOT seen the video?” Paula opines.Marianne nods, “That's my biggest concern. Since everyone is watching the video and realizing how this Influencer is nothing more than a scammer view-hunting who deceives subscribers with click-baits and empty content... how is Taddy going to allow his son to marry this idler?“Paula's head was spinning as if she'd downed an entire bottle of Campari, “Ehr... Mrs. Correia, I
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 712 Master and Apprentice Say Goodbye
“Hello, mother? What happened this time?” Reginaldo asks, already very worried.“Huh?” Sylvia finds this amusing, “What do you mean, 'this time'? I called to tell you something, but it looks like you're in worse trouble.”“I'm not saying it's worse than having Aline missing.” Reginaldo sighs, “But George just quit his job.”“Your best friend?” Sylvia was alone, yet, she lowers her voice, “The one who wanted to sleep with Aline?”“He, mother.” Reginaldo smiles ironically, “What a thing, huh? Who would have thought that now not only would he resign, but he would make it clear that we are no longer friends?”“Did he break the friendship too?” Sylvia shows no regret, “Well, dear son, now that it's happened, your old mother can tell you with propriety: no guy who wants to sleep with your fiancée deserves the title of 'best friend'.”Reginaldo can no longer be upset and laughs at his mother's unusual wisdom, “Mother, you’re the best.”Sylvia smiles as she hears her son's voice happier, “I m
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 713 Inquisition
In the afternoon, Joshua was summoned to talk to Reginaldo.Not knowing why, Joshua had a restless heart. Did he offend the Fabray Network heir in any way?Upon entering the office, he visualized Reginaldo sitting in his leather armchair like a true dominator.Joshua felt unable and unworthy to remain in the office, imagining himself violating a sacred area, “Mr. Fabray... Do you really need to talk to me?”“Don't be afraid, Joshua.” Reginaldo raises his hand and moves his index and ring finger, calling him closer.Joshua closes the door and approaches his boss, “Yes, Mr. Fabray.”“I want to know if you are aware of what is going on.” Reginaldo remains serious and intimidating.Joshua clears his throat unnecessarily, “Your fiancée is missing...”“And what else?”Joshua feels shivers run through his body, “I... I dare not...”“I authorize you to dare,” Reginaldo answers in a lower tone, but equally frightening.Joshua looks toward the door, already envisioning an escape.“Mr. Fabray, I
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 714 Traffic Accident
Carla and Laura are horrified to find George a nervous wreck and looking haggard.Carla gets up and walks over to him, “Honey! Come, go into the kitchen, let's have a passion fruit tea. Laura made it for us, it's delicious.”“Thank you, honey, thank you,” George answers in a low tone.Laura also gets up, “I think I'd better go...”“No, Laura, stay.” George asks, taking a seat in another chair, “I want you to hear what happened to help spread the seed.”“I don't know who I can tell.” Laura sits down again.“Sunset Village will know... that George Correia is no longer a real estate agent for Gomes Estates.”Carla and Laura are stunned and horrified.After a while, Carla asks him, “Honey, did you go to Gomes Estates to ask for my job back and ended up resigning too?”“Or was it Reggie who fired you?” Laura asks.“No, I was the one who quit,” George responds bitterly.Carla pours him a cup of tea, “Here. Oh, George, what are we going to do now?”“Isn't there a new real estate agency here

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.

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...”
