Building My Life Chapter 1567 No Competition for Jane
On Monday, Beto and Teresa are sitting face-to-face with Josias, about to explain what is happening with Vera.“We haven't made it official yet.” Josias comments, “But starting this year, we will start building our headquarters. Let’s get out of the Vargas building.”“It's about time!” Beto exclaims, “Congratulations, Josias.”“Thanks, now let's get straight to the point.” Josias folds his hands on the desk and looks steadily at the couple.“It was my fault, sir.” Teresa respectfully states, “I let Rosemary receive the postman and she discovered a letter addressed to her by Pamela. Beto had asked Pamela countless times not to get in touch, but she insisted. We even had to change the phone.”“You guys give me the new number later.” Josias comments, “What about Vera?”“It seems like an irony of fate.” Beto says, “Seu Moacyr and Cristina went to the capital to prevent Pamela from coming back here in an attempt to see Wallace again, but my sister managed to do that. She showed up at my da
Building My Life Chapter 1658 Death Is a Part Of Life
In the Mountain Penthouse, Melissa was supposed to sweep the living room floor, but she's standing with the broom in hand as the radio plays Enrique Iglesias's song “Experiência Religiosa”.Kelvin enters his residence with letters and a yellow package in his hand. He's smiling, “Whew, good thing you're a Maggiezine subscriber! The biggest confusion is happening in the streets, with girls fighting aggressively for a copy.”Melissa wakes up from her trance, but this hasn't gone unnoticed by Kelvin. She takes the yellow package and opens it. It's Maggiezine's issue with Jack Motta looking very sexy with a penetrating gaze.“Therein lies the reason.” Kelvin repeats the piercing gaze, “What were you thinking about, my love?”“Last week, Alan asked me if I still loved Josias.” Melissa decided not to hide anything from her husband.Kelvin frowns, “Why did your son ask that kind of question?”“Because he wants me to always be on good terms with Josias.” Melissa sits down and drops the broom,
Building My Life Chapter 1659 Let's Use the Revolver
Kelvin is talking to Daryl on his way from Café Mendonça to Crystal Blue. They cross the Main Square while talking.“And when Alan asked if Melissa still loved Josias, it was to see if we were going to walk away from the city as Angela and David did.” Kelvin chuckles.But Daryl doesn't laugh along with him, “Bro, this is really weird. Why did your stepson ask such a silly question?”Kelvin stops laughing and sees how pissed off his older brother is, “Daryl, stop, I won't let—”“Won't you let me show you the truth you insist on denying?” Daryl sternly interrupts him, “You need to earn the love and respect of Josias Rocha's children.”“I am trying.” Kelvin justifies himself, “But it's not like I'm in some competition.”“Believe me, little brother, it's a competition. Unfortunately, the game is not easy, but you already knew that when you decided to date a woman who already had two children, correct?”Kelvin refuses to be radical, “Daryl, you're overreacting. It's easy for you to say bec
Building My Life Chapter 1660 Arrangements at the Funeral
At Café Montanha, Jack has just signed the cover of Maggiezine for a passionate fan.“Good reading!” He smiles kindly.After the fan walks away, Veronica jokes, “Do you think she'll be able to read anything? She will frame the cover on her bedroom wall and spend hours drooling and worshiping you.”“And will you be jealous?” Jack asks jokingly.“No, because the day will come when Playboy will extend the invitation to me.” Veronica jokes.Jack laughs, “Don't tell that around my dad.”Veronica stops laughing, “Honey, is it just me, or didn’t your father like me?”Jack is surprised by the sudden question, “What's this, honey? No, my father loves you as a future daughter-in-law.”“But he doesn't love me as part of the family,” Veronica concludes sourly.Jack takes her right hand, “Don't talk like that, honey. My dad is still getting used to me being famous.”“Yes, you said he forbade you to achieve fame for fear you'd get AIDS.” Veronica snorts, “Now he understands that it's not that easy,
Building My Life Chapter 1661 Indication
Tuesday. Beto is meeting with William in his office, at the Ramos supermarket.“William, I brought you here to discuss what I intend to do from now on. I told Mr. Ramos that I will leave to take care of my father's building.”“A pity, Beto.” William laments, “We like you here.”“Yes, but that's how business is.” Beto puts his hand on his friend's shoulder, “Can I nominate you to be the next manager here?”William is stunned by the indication, "Beto... Do you think I'm ready?"“Of course, you always did a good job at the warehouse.” Beto nods, “All you have to do is pay attention to the other sections of the supermarket and learn how they work. I learned and managed to overcome myself, and so can you.”“I'm looking for a pay raise.” William laughs, “You can refer me to Mr. Ramos, Beto. Thank you so much for remembering me.”“I do it for our friendship, comrade.” Beto and William hug each other.*****Isabel visits Teodoro's building with narrowed eyes and strangely holding her purse.

Building My Life Chapter 1662 I Just Wanted to Kill Her
William goes to his parents' house to tell them the good news. The radio is on and the song “Se a Vida É”, by Pet Shop Boys, cheers up those present.“Mom, Dad... I will be nominated as the next manager of Ramos supermarket! Isn't that cool?”Dora gapes, then asks, “Will! Is this really true? How did you become a candidate?”Simeon swells with pride, “Oh dear, our son has worked hard and hard, and now he will be rewarded!”"Ah, son, embrace your old mother!" Dora gets emotional.William wants to correct the 'old mother', but he notices how silvery both Dora's and Simeon's hair is. Yes, time is passing...He was fifteen years old when Melissa met Josias and the Campos family's life began to change. Now he's thirty-one and has a fourteen-year-old son!William breaks the hug and comments, “It's time for me to start saving money to leave Caio as a legacy. We already have the house here in Green Park.”“Son, you know that Caio has a space at Rocha Constructions.” Simeon sits in the armchai
Building My Life Chapter 1663 Protecting her Career
William returns to work where Beto was waiting for him in the office. Beto is still worried about his sister getting into trouble and the Freire family's desire to kill her.“Hello, Beto! Did something happen?"“Not yet, but it will happen if Vera continues to meddle in the life of the Freire family.” Beto leans back in his chair, “I stopped by my father's building just to find Mrs. Freire with her husband's revolver hidden in her purse.”William is surprised, “If it was hidden, how did you know?”“It's just that she told me naturally as if it were the most normal thing in the world to kill disaffected people.” Beto rubs his hands over his face to ward off anxiety.“So, how did our boss react to my nomination?” William wanted to change the subject, “My parents already want to barbecue in celebration.”“Ask your father to save the filet steak for now.”Beto's serious tone set William on alert, “I... didn't get the promotion, did I?”Beto looks at William pityingly, “I'm sorry, Will, bu
Building My Life Chapter 1664 The Importance of Legacy
William returns to his parents' house after a grueling day at the warehouse. Now the radio is playing “I’m Not Giving You Up” by Gloria Estefan. Dora was sweeping the floor when she sees her slumped-shouldered son.“Sonny, what happened this time?”“False alarm, mother. I won’t be the supermarket manager.”Simeon comes from the kitchen with a ham sandwich in hand, “What did you say, son? How was that possible?”“As much as Beto had goodwill, the one who decides, in the end, is Mr. Ramos.” William collapses on the couch.“Oh son, we're sorry.” Dora sits next to him, “Well, at least you still have the job as a warehouse supervisor.”“No, mom, I don't know if I want to continue in this life.” William shakes his head, “I told you I want to leave a legacy for my son. The Ramos Supermarket warehouse is not mine, and there is no guarantee that Caio will be hired in my place.”Simeon stares at his son with interest, “What are you thinking about, Will?”William smiles slightly, “I'm thinking a

Chapter 3248 Go Date the Spanish Stallion
At the quiet, tree-lined Ibrahim Square, Sarah sat alone on a bench, her gaze resting on an issue of the Maggiezine. She flipped through the pages, but her mind was elsewhere — clearly disconnected from whatever her eyes were scanning.Lost in thought, she barely noticed Reynaldo approaching until his voice startled her back to the present.“Sarah, thank goodness you’re safe, sound... and still a virgin!”She nearly jumped off the bench, utterly horrified by his sudden arrival — and even more so by his tactless choice of words.“What is going on with this town?” she snapped. “Is there something in the water?”“I drink charcoal-filtered water,” Reynaldo replied matter-of-factly, as if that settled the issue.“Well, good for you.” Sarah crossed her arms. “Reynaldo, can you explain to me if you have something against J.J.?”He sat down beside her, his demeanor defensive yet trying to remain calm.“I have nothing against him,” he insisted. “I met J.J. recently — when he came back ‘from th
Chapter 3247 Understanding What's Going On
At the Vasconcelos Fabrics headquarters, J.J. remained seated at his desk, a faintly amused smirk displaying on his lips. Across from him stood Dylan, still in his police uniform, exuding the solemn demeanor of a man trying to sort through a delicate situation.“You’ve been reported for assault, J.J.,” Dylan announced, his tone neutral but firm.J.J. didn’t flinch. “So the wuss decided to file a complaint instead of retaliating like a real man,” he replied coolly, barely looking up from his desk.Dylan’s brow furrowed. “As an officer of the law, I’m not in the business of revenge or retaliation.” His mouth curved slightly, but there was no warmth in the smile. “But I do try to understand what’s going on. According to Reynaldo, you snapped when you saw him near Sarah Paes.”At that, J.J. finally lifted his gaze, his demeanor shifting from flippant to serious. “Since you’re following in your father’s footsteps, I assume you know who Sarah is.” He paused for effect, then added gravely, “

Brigitte and Theodore were chatting animatedly in the bustling corridors of Damascene Lawyers, sidestepping lawyers and clients moving briskly through the hall.“How are your studies going, Theodore?” Brigitte asked with a warm smile.“Excellent,” he replied. “Every now and then my dad hands me a case to look over.”“Must be nice, being the boss’s son,” she teased.Theodore chuckled heartily, clearly enjoying the perks of nepotism. But as they approached Brigitte’s office, their conversation came to an abrupt halt.“I’ve been waiting for you, you little fox!” came a sharp voice from down the hall.Brigitte froze, startled by the sight of Suzy standing at her office door, arms crossed and a glare cold enough to freeze hell over.******In the elegant living room of the Mountain Penthouse, Diane sat beside Felipe on the plush sofa, her demeanor gentle and maternal, despite the fact her son was a grown man. She looked at him with quiet concern.“Are you really sure about ending the relat
Chapter 3245 The Kiss of the One We Love
That afternoon, the living room of the Mountain Penthouse was tense and electric. Diane stepped in, only to find her son Felipe in the middle of a heated argument with Jake Cogo. Her expression immediately twisted into one of displeasure.“Hey, what’s going on here?” she asked sharply. “Mr. Cogo, my son needs to rest.”Jake didn’t flinch. “I can see that, Mrs. Mountain. But this is urgent.”Placing her purse on the sideboard, Diane raised an eyebrow. “And what’s so important that it needs to be discussed right now?”Jake turned to her. “Felipe says he wants to break up with my sister. I have to be involved in this.”A sly, almost mischievous smile tugged at Diane’s lips. “And where is Suzy, by the way?”Jake flinched, suddenly sheepish. “Er... she went to look for investors at—”“I don’t give a damn!” Diane exploded. “Mr. Cogo—”“Jake,” he corrected quickly.“‘Jake,’ I’m deeply disappointed in the way Suzy handled this whole situation. I was supporting her as my future daughter-in-law
Chapter 3244 Taken by the CEO’s Son
In the elegant living room of the Mountain Penthouse, Mary gently rocked baby Anthony in her arms. The soft rhythm of her lullaby filled the space — until the sound of the doorbell cut through the quiet.“That’s odd,” Mary murmured, her brow furrowing. “No one called from the front desk...” She approached the door cautiously and asked, “Who is it?”A voice responded from the other side. “Jake Cogo!”Mary raised an eyebrow, surprised. “Hold on a second!”Just then, Felipe emerged slowly, dressed in a white robe, walking with measured steps — the toll of his recent hospital stay still evident in his posture.“Who is it, Mary?” he asked.“Jake Cogo,” she answered, puzzled. “Cousin, weren’t you dating his sister?”Felipe grimaced, visibly annoyed by the mention.“Mary, I’m not dating Jake,” he clarified. “You better take our little cousin to his crib.”Mary gave a small smile. “Oh, Anthony’s already asleep. My lullaby must’ve been either very soothing or incredibly boring.”Felipe chuckle
Chapter 3243 Nobody’s Calling the Cops
At Café Montanha, Rodrigo returned from the supermarket and took a long, satisfied look around his bustling business. Customers chatted over coffee and snacks, while Neilton and the other waiters moved about swiftly and professionally, serving with ease.“Hey, Rod! What’s up?” Neilton called out with a grin.Rodrigo replied, “Neil, sometimes I envy you for not having a mountain of problems.”Laughing, Neilton shot back, “And I envy you for having a big, noisy family.”Rodrigo paused, swallowing hard. “I’m sorry.”“Nah, I’m just joking — well, maybe not. I do wish I had at least a younger brother.”Rodrigo chuckled lightly. “Whenever I need to, I talk to Veronica over video call. Anyway, I meant the problems at the supermarket.”They made their way to the counter.“Still that issue with the truck from Bezerra Farm?” Neilton asked.“That’s resolved. But now we know why it happened.” Rodrigo lowered his voice, glancing around. “Be careful with the Borges brothers. They’re not who we thou
Chapter 3242 Not Such a Cordial Neighbor
At the Vaztrans office, Suzy walked in expecting to find Sofia at her desk. Instead, she was surprised to see Alan there alone.She had no idea she was about to be handled like livestock on its way to the slaughterhouse.“Alan, what a surprise. What are you doing here? Where’s Sofia?” she asked.Alan leaned back with a hint of irony in his tone. “Which of those two questions should I answer?”Suzy paused, confused by the odd remark.“We need to talk, Suzy,” he continued, pushing a check across the desk.Suzy’s breath caught as she picked it up and read the staggering amount.“This check...?” she whispered.“It’s the amount you invested in Vaztrans, plus ten percent in compensation, as outlined in your contract,” Alan explained coolly.“You’re... returning my investment?” she asked, her voice tight.“Exactly. We no longer require your partnership, Miss Cogo.”Suzy’s eyes narrowed. “May I ask what this is about?”“It’s simple,” Alan said, calm but firm. “My wife believes you’re not cont
Chapter 3241 The Mountain Family Has Lost Its Relevance
In the Vaztrans offices, William extended a freshly written check to Sofia. Standing nearby, Alan wore a solemn expression, watching the transaction with quiet attention.“Here you go, my dear partner,” William said with finality. “This is our salvation.”Sofia took the check and her eyes widened with disbelief. “The bank’s never going to cash this much for Suzy,” she muttered.William shrugged indifferently. “Then they’ll figure out another way to get the money back to her.”Alan leaned forward, trying to get a better look at the amount. “My dad’s being pretty generous, huh?”“Thank God,” Sofia said. A relieved smile crept onto her face. “Any doubts I had about being accepted into this family are gone.” She brightened, holding the check delicately. “I’m even going to text Caroline. What do you think, honey?”Alan chuckled and leaned over, placing a gentle kiss on the crown of her head. “She’ll love that.”Still serious, William interjected, “So, who’s going to break the news?”Alan’s
Chapter 3240 You Keep the Cycle of Hate Spinning
At the Lafayette Mansion, in the elegantly furnished living room, Thierry was seething with fury. The revelation that criminals had used his supermarket as a stage for their schemes infuriated him.“How dare those idiots?” he barked. “And what about Leonardo? Isn’t he the top lawyer at Damascene Lawyers?”J.J. answered with a grim tone. “Apparently being a lawyer for the most prestigious firm in Lagoon City has become some sort of cover for him.”Rodrigo, firm and resolute, added, “Well, then we’ll have to tear that cover off. Brigitte and Little Theo can’t have their reputations stained.”“And let’s not forget,” J.J. continued, “my father is a client of that firm. He knows Miguel Damascene personally — he’s the current owner.”Thierry clenched his jaw. “And there’s more. My wife is Little Theo’s sister—”
