Meu Bem, Meu Mal (My Good, My Evil in English) was a Brazilian telenovela produced by TV Globo, October 29, 1990 to May 18, 1991, in 173 episodes.
Plot The telenovela depicts Lázaro Venturini, majority shareholder of Venturini Designers, who is forced to live with Ricardo Miranda, who holds 30% stake in the company and had an affair with his late wife, Maria Helena. Ricardo also holds a secret affair with Isadora Venturini (also a shareholder), the widow of Claudius, son of Lázaro, and hated by the patriarch. Both Ricardo and Isadora are victims of others' hatred.
Ricardo was responsible for the ruin of Philip. His daughter, Patricia, plans revenge and becomes involved with Ricardo, even though much younger than he and a friend of his troubled daughter, Jessica.
Isadora joins socialite Mimi Toledo and her manicurist, Berenice. Toledo was in love with the late husband of Isadora. Berenice wants to avenge her daughter, Fernanda's, humiliation imposed by Isadora, who did not accept the girl as his son's girlfriend. Doca is a poor boy who infiltrates high society as Eduardo Costabrava, and is madly in love with Victoria, Isadora's daughter.
