Jennie had no choice but to walk over to her brother.“Are you satisfied now? Are you going to keep me locked up here?”“When are you going to start acting like an adult?” Marcello stared at her, his expression serious.“You think I'm not mature? You're the one who's not!” Jennie retorted fearlessly. “Have you forgotten about our mother? And you still manage to defend the daughter of a mistress?” You all disappointed Mom!“Those grudges belong to the previous generation. Besides, Victoria's mother wasn't a mistress,” Marcello said calmly.But Jennie had always been spoiled. When she was angry, she wouldn't listen to reason."Yes, she was! Didn't Dad look for her? Didn't he look for her daughter? And now they're talking about giving her shares! Tell me, Marcello, can you look at Mom after that?“ she retorted impatiently.Marcello frowned, his patience wearing thin.

Jackson, Victoria's husband, was a powerful man.And they were in São Paulo, where the Carson family had enough influence to shake anyone.“I...” Jennie hesitated, reluctant to apologize. But her brother's steady gaze left her no way out. The fear of offending such powerful people and never being able to return to London forced her to give in.After weighing the risks, she approached Victoria's bed and whispered in a low voice:“I'm sorry... I didn't hit you on purpose. I just wanted to talk, but I ran too fast and ended up bumping into you. I'm sorry.”Victoria looked up at her, calm and serene. “I accept your apology. But I won't apologize to your mother until everything is cleared up.”Her voice was firm but gentle."By the way, don't you think my mother was the biggest victim in this story? She suffered in silence, asking for nothing in return. If we were really after money or shares, why

Jennie tried to calm down and examined every corner of the basement. But there was no way out: doors and windows locked, no cracks of hope.She couldn't escape alone.The realization plunged her into despair.Where am I? Does Marcello already know I've been kidnapped? And Dad... he just recovered. If he finds out, he'll get sick again.Jennie curled up on the cold floor, sobbing uncontrollably. Tears of regret fell from her eyes.•••Meanwhile, at the hotel, Marcello searched the suite for clues. Nothing. No evidence.I need help... but from whom?Jackson. He had power, influence, eyes and ears all over São Paulo. But Jennie had offended Victoria. Would he be willing to help?Marcello thought for a moment and decided to take a chance. He called Jackson, asking for support.Jackson was silent when he learned that Jennie had been kidnapped. His first reaction was to refuse.

“What happened, Jennie?” André asked, his voice tight with concern. “Dad... I'm fine... but please help Ciara. Please!” Jennie begged, sobbing. André knew his daughter well; that pleading tone was not like her. A chill ran down his spine: she could have been kidnapped. His face hardened. He gripped the phone tightly and asked, his voice firm and nervous: “Jennie, are you at the Lazer family's house?” Jennie didn't dare answer. She saw Suelen's evil gaze cutting through the space between them like a blade. Before she could say anything, Suelen took the phone from her hands. “Mr. Lewis,” Suelen said sharply, “do you remember me? Last time, you set me up and left me in a horrible situation. Now your daughter is under my control. How about we reconsider our pending conversation?” André cursed under his breath. It was Suelen. He knew how cruel that woman was and felt panic tighten his chest. Holding back his anger, he pressed his hand against his heart and said through clenched teeth,

Evelyn's heart raced when André impatiently raised his voice. She gripped the strap of her bag tightly, her face changing expression.Did he find Fernanda?Otherwise, he wouldn't be so cold, so indifferent to Jennie's safety.So that's it... finally, I got my punishment.Her eyes turned red. Disappointment and despair overwhelmed her. She had always tried to restrain herself, but her husband's attitude said it all. He no longer cared about her or their daughter. He was ready to go back to Fernanda.Evelyn saw no reason to pretend anymore. It was time to lay everything out in the open.She wiped her tears and stared at André, her voice trembling with despair:“André, I know you came back because of Fernanda. It doesn't matter... you can go find her. But please, help find our daughter first.”Her throat tightened as if she had a lump in it.“Jennie has been kidnapped and you're not doing anything. What sh
