At Gomes Estates, Márcio and George want to put out the fire between Carla and Bianca.George already stands in front of Carla, "Take it easy, Bianca. Carla was just kidding."Bianca is exploding with an erupting volcano, "How dare this gecko to insult me like that? Didn't Mr. Castelo tell you I've been here since the 2000s?"Aline scoffs, "You're ratting your age, woman."Carla bursts out laughing. The fact is that Bianca exaggerates her makeup to appear more youthful.Márcio says, "Apparently, Bianca is not going to the party.""What little party?" Bianca is interested.Aline replies, "We got an apartment and we want to celebrate."Bianca asks dryly, "Does your commission give you enough to bash?"Carla gets annoyed, "And do you need that much money to have a party?"Bianca smiles haughtily, "For the red wine, the brie, the salami... yes, you need a lot of money! I won't take snacks and chips!""Then you don't have to appear." Aline responds in the same tone, "We're not going to b
Laura is stunned to see how her father hates her for no reason. It can't all be just because she met Reginaldo at the nightclub, it can't be!She narrows her eyes and asks him sternly, "Are you really my father?""Are you calling your mother a whore, you insolent?" Antonio barks."No, but it's strange that you treat me like an enemy instead of treating me like a daughter." Laura crosses her arms.Antonio scoffs, "And how should I proceed when it's my daughter who causes me a lot of heartbreaks?""Am I the one causing heartbreak?" Laura giggles sarcastically, "Come on: why did you block my credit cards?""Because you defied me. I've told you a thousand times that I don't want you to divorce, and you threaten to do that to be with that worthless writer. I've tried to be more malleable as long as you show up for work, but you haven't kept your word. Now, you have the nerve to inform me, after I suffered a heart attack, that you decided to try a life of husband and wife with the current p
Laura can't help but be outraged when she realizes what plan her father had in mind for her, "So if I showed up to work that day, would you put me on as a cleaning lady?""It's not cleaning lady, dear, maid." Antonio responds mockingly, "See? The name is cuter."Laura raises her hand to slap her father, but she catches herself in time, "Argh! I did well not to show up to be humiliated!"Antonio continues with sarcasm, "Of course, you did great! Now you have your bank account frozen and your credit cards were blocked.""But I need you to pay a gardener to help Anestor!" Laura whimpers.Antonio raises his eyebrows, "Who is Anestor?""The servant Reggie hired to clean the house now that he's working here," Laura responds without realizing that she had hidden this information.Antonio chuckles, "Have you allowed your husband, who has nowhere to drop dead, to hire a servant? With what money will you pay his salary? Slavery is over, my daughter!"Laura is hurt by the searing irony that came
Laura enters Marianne's office with tears in her eyes. Marianne is surprised by her daughter's condition."Honey, what's going on?" She gets up and hugs her daughter."Mom, Dad blocked my bank account! I haven't been able to buy a measly cell phone since yesterday!" The hug is undone, "By the way, add my new number, I'll text you.""OK." Marianne is still taking in the news, "Do I need to ask why your father blocked your bank account?""No." Laura sits in the visitors' seat, "He said he was disappointed that I joined the enemy, his words."Marianne wiggles, "Your father is irrational. He didn't want to support you with Eduardo because you were a married woman. Now that you're acting like one, is he against that too?"Laura massages her temples, "It's impossible to understand what my father wants. It seems that the enemy is me. Mother, tell me the truth: am I not his daughter? I'm not calling you a slut, on the contrary, it's even understandable that you had an affair with another kind
Inside the office of Mr. Rosendo, Reginaldo felt that his trajectory as a hotel porter had ended as soon as it began."Mr. Rosendo, do we already have a complaint about me?" He asks humbly.Rosendo sits in his chair, "Mr. Ferreira claims he didn't authorize you to try for a job here, that you took advantage of the friendship you have with his daughter."Reginaldo controls his anger so as not to unmask the disguise, "But... Laura said that everything was fine..."Mr. Rosendo chuckles, "Looks like it was just a miscommunication. I admire that Miss Ferreira wanted to help out a friend. However, she hardly ever shows up here and has no decision-making power at the hotel.""So I'm fired?" Reginaldo asks with a lump in his throat.Mr. Rosendo shakes violently, relieving Reggie, "No, Reginaldo. I disagreed with Mr. Ferreira, and now, I could never do that with so many recommendations and compliments from guests who were attended to by you. Except for guest Gustavo Barroso, everyone spoke wel
Anestor is using the vacuum cleaner on the rugs that are near the black sofas in the entrance room of the Ferreira House. On top of that, he whistles a song from the 80s.Meanwhile, Laura is being grabbed by Eduardo, and who knows if she'll see Reginaldo or the light of day again. Eduardo is thirsty for revenge and acting on animal instinct!However, when Laura thinks there is no more hope, behold, Anestor turns off the vacuum cleaner at the last scream she let out."HELP!"Anestor drops the household appliance carelessly and runs out to the outside. When he leaves, he manages to identify Eduardo's Hyundai and the madman tossing Laura inside the car, closing the door afterward.With that, Eduardo's time to go to the driver's door was enough for the well-trained Anestor to approach him with long strides, "Stop there right now, you crazy! What do you think you're going to do with my mistress?"Eduardo is amazed, "And why would that tramp be your lady boss? Who are you?""I'm the new ser
Aline came out of the bathroom after showering and was comfortable with clean clothes smelling of fabric softener and her hair washed with strawberry scented shampoo. The delicious smell of the pastries and kibbeh being fried made her float.However, someone starts banging furiously on the door and Aline goes to answer it with a frown, "Who is it?""Open that damn door or I'm going to appeal to the super!"Aline can't believe it. It's Sabrina.As she opens the door, Aline is frowning, "I recognized your jackdaw voice."Sabrina puts both hands on her hips, "What do you think you're doing? I knew you two would be troublesome since day one!"Aline yawns, teasing the neighbor, "We're busy preparing the apartment for the opening.""And that's why you're frying these disgusting snacks whose frying odor is permeating the entire floor?" Sabrina complains."You say 'odor' like it's something disgusting." Aline wiggles, "Have you never eaten shrimp balls?""Baked like the fancy buffets, not fri
At the Sunset Village police station, Reginaldo meets Laura leaving the office of the deputy responsible for taking her statement. The two embrace fervently."Darling..." Laura cries profusely, "I thought I was going to die! I thought I'd never see you again!""Never say that even in jest, my love!" Reginaldo hugs her tightly, afraid of releasing her, and lets her be snatched by Eduardo.But Eduardo was in another room being heard at the custody hearing, with someone from the Public Defender's Office verifying whether the criminal's "rights" were upheld or violated.Reginaldo points to the door, "Should I go in and give my statement? After all, I know the guy.""The more people open their mouths, the better!" Laura angrily responds, "What about my parents?"Reginaldo is disappointed, "I talked to your father. Now, if he comes, it's another story."Laura pales, "He didn't believe I was almost abducted?""He doesn't believe it was his favorite false husband, Eduardo Casemiro." Reginaldo
