2024-10-29 19:42:56Reginaldo 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

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.

The Tide of Fortune Chapter 1 Busted
Sunset Village is the famous seaside district of Lagoon City for high society.

However, a Hyundai Genesis car drives blatantly and carelessly along the paved streets.When passing through the gate of the Ferreira family's property, the luxury car crosses the outside area, still awkwardly. He parks at the entrance of one of the many large houses in the neighborhood. A man and a woman come out of it. The man driving was drunk. The woman giggles.Inside the Ferreira house, on the large king-size bed in the master suite, Reginaldo Fabray is lying unable to sleep. In the position he's in, he can see through the open double doors of the balcony the beachy horizon.Suddenly, the couple's laughter echoes through the house.Reginaldo opens his eyes, hardly believing what he heard. He knows whose laughs are.Reginaldo gets up f
The Tide of Fortune Chapter 2 I Can't Take it Anymore
Reginaldo decides to try to claim some dignity for himself, "Laura, keep your decorum. Imagine what your parents would say if they knew you brought your lover into the house?"Laura gets angrier about this. She gets up from the couch and starts walking toward Reginaldo."Would you be able to rat me out? Remember what we agreed: I don't mind your business and you don't mind mine! This isn't a real marriage, you took advantage of me when we met at that nightclub and my father preferred to force you to be my husband than to put you in jail!""I didn't take advantage of you!" Reginaldo explodes, "We were both drunk enough... and what would a virgin do in a nightclub if it wasn't for the intention of having the first time?"Despite her high heels, Laura climbs the stairs fast enough to reach Reginaldo and slap him. Eduardo laughs on the couch."Damn you!" Laura roars, "It's over, I'm tired of this charade! I'm going to ask my parents to annul this marriage! See him down there?" She points

Unlike his wife and family, Reginaldo is not into material goods.Upon entering and starting the engine, Reginaldo leaves with the car at high speed, unable to bear the three years of humiliation he has been through.Leaving Sunset Village for the urban area of Lagoon City, the Carlos Campos Highway was still between uninhabited spaces, except for the occasional bordered neighborhood. In the past, Sunset Village was isolated from the rest of the city as an exclusive place for rich and powerful people.The maximum speed allowed was 80 km, but Reginaldo's car was well above that.Inside the car, Reginaldo was almost crying with rage and was holding the steering wheel tight as if he were strangling Eduardo."Who do these two think they ar

Reginaldo woke up in Lagoon City's famous General Hospital. After his car flipped over, he blacked out and couldn't remember anything else.Now, when he opens his eyes, he finds himself wearing his blue hospital gown and quite comfortable in a hospital bed.Very comfortable is the right word. Reginaldo wasn't on one of those hard gurneys or with those uncomfortable pillows. The blankets were warm and the room he was in was squeaky clean and smelled pleasantly of disinfectant.It was then that the penny dropped.Reginaldo was in the private wing!But how did this happen? Did Mr. and Mrs. Ferreira feel sorry for their son-in-law and decided to give him the best treatment? Didn't they want journalists to discover their son-in-law among the poor patients?Reginaldo didn't know. He just smiled and closed his eyes, wanting to rest as much as possible.A few hours later, Reginaldo reopened his eyes when he heard footsteps. He thought a good-looking female nurse was coming to bring lunch.How

Reginaldo is offended when the Fabrey family secretary mocks his eldest son. Where is the respect for those in charge?"My father gives you a lot of freedom, Anestor.""Believe me, master: when you return to who you were, I will be your faithful dog." Anestor stops laughing.Reginaldo sinks into the pillows, "I will never go back to Victoria and my father's business. How boring, being a realtor."Anestor says ironically, "Yes, it's very boring to be the son of the owner of the largest real estate network in Espírito Santo."Reginaldo wrinkles his nose, "You know very well that's not what keeps me away from this world. Fabrey Real Estate has become a nest of snakes. Envy and greed have become essential qualities among my family, especially among my cousins who feel entitled to take my place. Before they pour me a glass of arsenic wine, I let them fight each other like 'Game of Thrones'."Anestor adopts a serious tone again, "If you don't return, it will be your father who will drink

He wiggles and leaves.******Laura stands before Mr. Antonio Ferreira, her father, in the management of the Hotel Ferreira. Gray, serious and focused on business, shows he only wants to spare a few minutes for his daughter."Dad, I want to divorce Reggie.""What kind of talk is that, daughter? There's never been a divorce in the history of the Ferreira Family."Laura asks being ironic, "Has there been in the history of the Ferreira Family a forced marriage because the bride was sexually forced?"Antonio doesn't flinch, "No, back then we were conservative and didn't mix with the scum of society in fifth-rate nightclubs."Laura gets the clue, "Dad, Night Lagoon is an excellent establishment, only the upper crust of society frequents that place.""And they keep behaving beastly?

Reginaldo visits his father-in-law at the hotel. Antonio is wearing a serious and intimidating expression."Reggie, how nice of you to come. Today before lunch Laura came saying she wants to divorce you. What have you done to hurt my daughter?"Reginaldo is upset at how quickly Antonio blames him for this."I didn't do anything, sir."Antonio adds wryly, "Exactly, that's the problem. You don't do anything.""Selling popsicles on the beach is a worthy profession.""I wouldn't use the word 'profession', young man."Reginaldo uses the same sarcastic tone, "You never offered me a job here at the hotel. What else can I do?""A man always gets his way, Reggie. Anyway, explain to me why my daughter wants to divorce you?"Reginaldo decides not to talk about her lover when he sees that Antonio is unwilling to believe him."Well... that's what happens when there is a marriage by force.

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

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? Th

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

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...”
