The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 272 The Price of Being Dishonest
At the Andrade family breakfast table, Jacqueline reacted nervously to Walter's report."What? Is he not interested in committing incest? But I'm not his blood sister, damn it!" Jacqueline pounded the table, causing cups and utensils to shake.Walter widened his eyes and leaned back, leaning against the back of the chair as if it were safer."What's with this angry reaction, sis? I've never seen you like this.""There's always a first time for everything!" Jacqueline grumbled, "I can't believe Matt said something like that to me! Was it that secretary?""Secretary?" Walter tried to remember, "You mean Evan?""Maybe. He's a serious guy who seems like a wife-beater." Jacqueline described Evan in a prejudiced manner, "He was the one who rightfully shot Cindy.""Careful, remember this is a secret." Walter raised his index finger."Maybe it would be better if the public knew the truth." Jacqueline grinned maliciously.Walter, however, became more somber. "Jacqueline Andrade, listen to me v
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 273 The Key Is In The Past
Matthew and Abner are talking in the library of Sterling Mansion. The subject couldn't be taken at the headquarters of the Sterling Empire, as one never knows if someone could be spying on them."My grandson, what do you have against Alfredo Dantas?"Matthew smiles mischievously. "Annoying people like Mr. Dantas, pretending to be all proper and righteous, always have some dirty secret to hide. I've already found one of them."Abner chuckles and then composes himself. "I see. But unfortunately, you cannot bring up to the board my past with him and your grandmother.""Why not? That's the main reason," Matthew asserts, "Mr. Dantas is strict and harsh with me because I'm your grandson.""Ste-Learning has impressive enrollment and fee payment numbers, huh?" Abner comments, trying to focus on business and not on his youth.However, Matthew, maliciously smiling, stares at his blushing grandfather."Grandpa Abner, was grandma always yours? Or did you snatch her from Mr. Dantas?"Abner goes fr
The Long-Awaited Heir Chapter 274 She Knows Our Secret
In the editorial of Urbano Magazine, Nathan pressured Andreia to know the circumstances in which Cindy was hired."Nate, for the love of Christ! Let this matter go. It has nothing to do with you.""Are you sure about that, Mom?" Nathan crossed his arms. "So I should assume that Matthew is unaware of this.""No, he doesn't know, and you won't be the one to break the news to him," Andreia spoke sarcastically."Oh, what a pity. I'd have liked to see my dear cousin taken aback at least once." Nathan mocked. "Okay, I sent someone to visit Borges House to conduct that interview we want with Jackson Borges.""Oh, that's good." Andreia cheered up, getting up.Suddenly, she stopped walking."What's wrong, Mom?""I had a thought... is she with Matthew?""Who?""Cindy, my son." Andreia smiled lightly. "Did she manage to win back Matthew and the two made peace in bed?"Nathan felt the taste of vomit in his mouth."Ugh! Only that makes me believe that she wasn't sent by my cousin to 'seduce' me an

Alice spoke with obvious admiration."I can't believe it! He really was the most popular jock in high school!"Matthew laughed as he saw his grandfather, in a black and white photo, wearing the school team uniform. A football under his arm completed the look."Don't make fun of your grandfather. He doesn't like to dwell on the past too much." Alice also laughed, trying to be serious."Grandma, you were a beautiful lady back then." Matthew pointed to another photograph, "If Mr. Dantas was in love with you, I can even understand him.""But he shouldn't bring those feelings into the company." Alice became serious, "When Alfredo joined the conglomerate, your grandfather thought he had gotten over it. Alfredo worked well, climbed the company ranks, and earned the right to be part of the board."Matthew snapped his fingers. "L

Patricia notices his distressed expression.Theodore takes a deep breath before delivering the strange news. "Miss Borges, I don't even know where to start. I called Matthew Sterling, informing him of your intention to clear your name, but he reacted negatively and said it was better for you not to get involved."Patricia's eyes widened, surprised by Matthew's change.Not only did he break up with her, but now he prohibits her from trying to clear her name in front of the mockers!"What crazy idea is this?"

Elaine insists, "You're the heir, right? You can check in a snap of fingers if Cindy is part of the staff or not.""If I go to the Urbano editorial now, I might not find her." Matthew shakes his head, "Knowing Jackson, Cindy would be unable to walk today."Elaine blushes.Matthew realizes he was rude. "I'm sorry, Elaine. You really loved and deserved Jackson. But, unfortunately, certain things happened, and Jackson needed to date Cindy for that."Elaine stared at Matthew, trying to understand what that meant.Matthew felt it best not to tell Elaine that Cindy was shot by Evan and that her relationship with Jackson was part of the pact that Sterlings and Cardosos made to cover up the scandal.As Elaine believed Cindy had been mugged near the Sterling Cultural Hall, Matthew's words made no sense."What do y
