last update2023-08-24 20:59:51

A few days passed, and Sergeant Oliveira was never found again.

Conversations and rumors circulated in Sunset Village. People were afraid to face Reginaldo on the street when he passed them.

Sergeant Andrade didn't even dream of questioning Reginaldo about his disappearance and continued on his mission to discover Antonio and Eduardo's killer.

Concerning Aline's searches, Reginaldo decided to meet with the same sergeant to announce his decision.

“Good morning, Sergeant!” Reginaldo greets him in his office.

Andrade turns to him apprehensively, “Mr. Fabray, how can I help you?”

“I need to tell you something important.” Reginaldo closes the door.

Andrade smiles at him, imagining that Reginaldo will confess to him that he eliminated Oliveira, “I'm all ears.”

Reginaldo approaches him, “I came here to ask, as Aline’s fiancé, that the searches end.”

Andrade is thoughtful, “You know, your future mother-in-law already came here to ask me for this. Are you sure, Mr. Fabray?”

“I don’t understand

    Donald gestures for Reginaldo to sit down. He does so.“So, son, what have you decided?” Donald asks interestedly.Reginaldo replies solemnly, “I've decided that I'm moving out of Mendonça Manor. You and Penha can move back to the estate and have all the employees back, including Faron and Charlotte.”Donald reacts apologetically, looking at Reginaldo incredulously.“Reggie... Are you sure?”“Yes, Donald. I don't deserve to live there anymore. The estate hasn't even changed its name, it's still called 'Mendonça Manor'. Nothing could be fairer than returning the mansion to its original owners.”Donald begins to smile, “But... And as for Faron, you'll need someone like him by your side.”Reginaldo nods, “I know I will. But Faron has always been your butler.”Donald gestures, “No need to bother. He's yours. In fact, he was very loyal to you when we needed to... to get rid of that annoying, corrupt sergeant.”“I hope you know what you're doing.” Reginaldo wants to leave no doubt.“Yes, I

Oh, he's here!”The clients smile at the door......As GEORGE passes by, smiling and charismatic.“Are these people waiting for me?”“That's right, George. I'm glad you're here.” The secretary looks at George with obvious approval.“I'd better serve them before they change their minds!”The clients laugh and get up. George leads them into his office.Meanwhile, the conversation continues between Paula and Henry. Will Henry take action?“Henry, I'm waiting.” Paula complains, “What do you intend to do? Are you going to let people think that I-”“Hey, don't push me, honey!” Henry exclaims in exasperation.Paula is indignant, “Push you to do the right thing? Look, Henry, I thought I wasn't going to say that...”“Say it.”Paula squints, “But it seems that sometimes I feel part of some conspiracy or frame-up. Do you love me?”Henry exclaims excitedly, “Of course, I love you w

    Paula thinks it's weird that George is working for Henry. Henry reacts as if he's caught in the act.“Henry, can you communicate with me?” Paula asks wryly.Henry is offended, “Since when do we have communication problems?”Paula looks like she's not listening as she shakes her head, “You can tell me. I don't understand anything anymore. Since when is George working here?”Henry stands up, “A few weeks ago. He was out of work, and I decided to give it a go.”Paula reacts in astonishment, “But he was Gomes Estates' #1 realtor!”“Looks like something happened to him to resign, or Reggie fired him.” Henry shrugs with a sardonic smile.Paula crosses her arms suspiciously, “Didn't you ask, or didn't he tell you?”“No, I didn't ask. I didn't want to encourage a former employee to speak ill of the previous company. That would sound unethical, don't you agree?”“I don't know.” Paula doesn't buy the story, “I think you deserved to know what happened. If George was deservedly fired from Gomes E

He obeys the boss and sits opposite each other.“Can I tell you what happened to cheer you up?” George tries to excite him.“You can tell me, but I doubt I'll budge. It's not because of you, but...” Henry shakes his head.George tries anyway, “Well, I sold that apartment to that group of college kids who plan to live together even after graduation. Now that's true friendship.”Henry smiles wryly, “That's right, it's not a friendship like yours plus Reggie.”“OK, I feel like there's a bomb coming.” George lowers his hands.“Don't joke, George. Paula saw you.” Henry spits out the words.George takes a few seconds to process the news, “And who is Paula?”Henry extends his index finger, “Keep the information strictly confidential, my friend: Paula Santos is my girlfriend.”G

You seem more smiling than before.”Laura exclaims excitedly, “It's finally happening, Dad! Hug me!”Taddeo hugs his daughter. Marianne approaches from the kitchen.“Good morning, daughter! Did you come to have breakfast with us?”The embrace is broken. Laura approaches her mother.“I think I'll enjoy the coffee. I haven't had much to eat. We have a lot to do.”“We have?” Taddeo fishes the verb in the plural.“Mom, Dad...” Laura's eyes are sparkling with excitement, “The most perfect thing in the world happened yesterday! Reggie showed up at the store and asked me to talk. Jacob was in the way, so Reggie took me to a special place.”“Where did he take you?” Marianne asks interestedly.Laura sits on the sofa, “He took me to the Ferreira house.”Taddeo frowns, “The house you lived in when you were married to Reggie 'Silva'?”Laura confirms excitedly, “Exact

Reggie never forgot about me. Aline was the second option. If she didn't exist, I would have been married to Reggie a long time ago, and I wouldn't even have agreed to go back to Eduardo.”“Oh, thank God it all worked out.” Marianne ghoulishly exclaims, “The stoner writer is dead, Antonio is dead, Aline is dead...”Taddeo chuckles with his wife talking about 'God' in such a context, “Honey, I don't think the phrase came out well.”Everyone laughs very relaxed.Marianne shrugs, “Sorry guys, but the first two people on my list in particular caused our family pain.”Laura surreptitiously remarks, “Yes, and it's ironic how the sergeant who was supposed to keep those two freaks behind bars, especially Eduardo, has disappeared.

She remembers that after Laura left, Paula had to put up with a grumpy Jacob.“Yes, I came in, and you were leaving. Mr. Fabray looked upset.”Laura looks over the counter and notices that Jacob is still gone. She calls her, “Let's go to my office.”The two ladies go there.After closing the door, Laura continues, “So, Reggie was upset because he heard Jacob finally confess his love to me.”Paula gasps, and then exclaims, “OH!

    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

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

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?

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

    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

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.
