Building My Life Chapter 1691 Something Is Wrong
Wallace is surprised to hear this stranger speaking directly to him and wanting to confer with his mother. He is obviously suspicious, “My lord, don't you see the absurdity of wanting to talk to my mother?”Renan remains calm, “Be sure, young man, that I don't intend to do anything disgraceful to your mother.”“So what do you want?” Wallace is gruff.Renan changes tactics, “Is she still upset and grieving?”“Technically she is, but she decided to go back to work on the soap to clear her mind.”“I understood. Then I can speak directly to you, young man. Can you meet me at the Rocha Hotel restaurant at noon?”“I don't have money to eat at this restaurant,” Wallace speaks grimly.“And who says you're going to pay? It's on me, young man.” Renan seems to enjoy the exasperation of the others.“OK, we have an appointment.” Wallace waits no longer and hangs up, suspiciously, “Better me than my mother.”******Josias enters Rocha Constructions and finds everyone working. The mourning has passe
Building My Life Chapter 1692 Return My Woman
Wallace enters the Rocha Hotel restaurant. He didn't need anyone to guide him to any table because Renan stood out among the guests in a navy blue Italian-cut suit.“Mr. Vasconcelos?” He greets him with a serious face.“Allow yourself to smile a little, Mr. Freire.” Renan jokes, shaking his hand, “Sit down. I hear the caviar here is delicious.”“Can we cut to the chase? Or is the matter so nasty that I need to eat first?”Renan holds out the menu to the youngest, “I don't believe you're one of those people who lose their appetite easily.”Wallace is definitely out of patience, “Oh Heavens, you called me to—”“Relax, Mr. Freire!” Renan enjoys the unhappiness of others, “You are useful to me to solve my problem. I'm glad I didn't have to bother your mom.”“Annoying is the right word,” Wallace replies sourly.The waiter approaches and Wallace deliberately chooses the most expensive option of the day. But Renan reacts as if the dish cost only R$5.00.Wallace suddenly smiles with relief as

May your governance be as wonderful as your father's, bringing happiness and prosperity to the citizens of Lagoon City.”“Thank you so much, my friend Josias, for supporting me!” Tobias could have taken off to the moon with so much happiness, “This victory is yours too!”“Good, let’s all be blessed!” Josias whispers in his ear, “Just don't trust that Mr. Vasconcelos.”Tobias just chuckles, thinking Josias was joking.Our hero is not sati

He is here?"Kelvin enters after being mentioned, “Good morning! Wow, we have a distinguished visitor.”Josias turns to him, “Kelvin, I still haven't congratulated Melissa on her pregnancy. I saw the cover of Maggiezine and thought I'd make amends.”Kelvin smiles, “We were worried about your reaction. Bernie said he had to ask you for permission to pub

Vera leaves the office and returns to the lobby, but Beto is not satisfied with the end of the conversation. Teresa is tending tenants at the counter as the radio plays “No Diggity” by Blackstreet featuring Dr. Dre. But she manages to pick up the conversation.“Have you been with a man telling all about another guy's life? Damn it, Vera, you made the man jealous! That's why he dared to visit Wallace’s father’s wake, thinking he would find you!” “I couldn't have gone to Seu Harold's wake.” Vera responds in a shaky voice, “I didn't get a chance to say goodbye. He was so kind and gentle to me...”“That was before he found out you tricked the whole family with that plan.” Beto reminds her.“Argh, let's forget 1983! Thirteen years have passed.”“And you still seem to have learned nothing about it all,” Beto complains.The tenant leaves and Teresa joins the conversation, “May I know what's going on?”“No big deal, Teresa. Keep serving tenants.” Vera talks like this is an unhealthy job.“T
Building My Life Chapter 1696 Time to Think Better
In Daniel's office, he overheard all of Isabel's concerns regarding Vera and Wallace.“Isabel, this is truly a story that will take anyone's peace of mind.” He understands, “That's why I want you to take a few days off.”“More days off?” Isabel is distressed, “How will our program turn out?”Daniel is sincere, but concerned for her well-being, “We can designate someone else to be head writer, or we can end the soap this season.”Isabel ponders with her hand on her chin. Cancel the soap opera? “I thought the ratings were satisfactory.”“And they are. But it’s better to end the telenovela while the ratings are still high than to cancel it due to low ratings.” Daniel smiles, “Think over these days, Isabel, and I hope you can solve these problems in the meantime.”“OK, I'll think about it. Thank you, Daniel, for your consideration.”“I just want to help you, friend.” Daniel smiles.Isabel gets up and leaves. Flavia was waiting for her.“And then?” She asks anxiously.“Daniel raised the po

The radio was playing “Lucky Love” by Ace of Base.Dora approaches him, “Good morning, my little grandson! Breakfast is served. Where did your father go?”“Is he not around?” Caio straightens up, “So he went home.”“Not exactly his home now.” Dora smiles, “It’s the Pizzeria Campos construction site.”Caio gets up, “Grandma, I am very happy with this undertaking. Finally, my dad is focused on something other than hating Uncle Josias.”“For a moment, I thought he wasn't going to accept Rocha Constructions' budget out of pure spite. Thankfully, common sense prevailed.”Simeon appears to put on his boots, “Good morning, people! Everyone's up early, huh?”Dora watches her husband and remembers Harold, “Did you sleep well, Simeon?”Simeon leaves his boots and hugs his wife, “Darling, Isabel lost her husband, but it looks like you are the one who was traumatized.”“I don't know if I'm prepared t

Beto calls Teresa to talk about the urgent matter at the office in the Teodoro building.“Honey, why are you so upset?” Teresa worries.“Tess, I need to leave. Vera found Wally's address and it's on his doorstep!”“What a shameless bitch!” Teresa cries out, “What if Wally was in boxer shorts, just waking up?”Beto shakes the idea of another male wearing just boxer shorts from his mind, “Ehr... Let's not think about those details, honey. Will you man the lobby for me while I prevent a tragedy?”“Of course, dear, run! We don’t know whether Isabel threw away her late husband's revolver or not.”Beto can only imagine Wallace shooting Vera in the head and he runs like crazy to stop it.******Meanwhile, Wallace buys time while talking to Vera through the living room window.Vera notices this and fusses, "Wally, won't you let me in?”“I was watching TV.” Wallace frowns, “You don't intend to linger, do you?”“I wanted to talk so we can pick up where we left off.”“And where did we stop?” W

Chapter 3237 Mary’s Quinceañera (1)
That evening, the Rocha Events Hall was elegantly lit, and the soft sound of a waltz floated through the air.It was a joint celebration for Ignacio and Mary Campos Mountain. But more than just a birthday party, it marked Mary’s fifteenth birthday — her quinceañera.Because of that, the entire hall had been reserved for this important and unforgettable occasion.At the center of it all, Mary danced gracefully in a flowing, elegant pink gown that made her look like a miniature bride. Her dance partner, a close friend of sixteen, guided her with surprising poise.Around them, seven other couples glided across the floor, including Ignacio, who partnered with a girl from a well-known family. Henrique, as the cousin of the twins, also had his partner following the waltz.From the sidelines, Kelvin and Karen watched the scene with quiet pride, while Melissa and Josias — especially Melissa, mother of the birthday twins — took in the moment with emotion.“Look at your daughter,” Josias whispe
Chapter 3236 Support Your Wife
In the Mountain Penthouse living room, the atmosphere was far from serene. The heated discussion between Suzy and her boyfriend’s family showed no sign of calming down.“I can’t believe this!” Suzy exclaimed, her voice tight with indignation. “You all actually think I’m in love with Luís Vasquez!”Karen raised an eyebrow, her tone biting. “You’re not?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Suzy barked back. “I’m in love with Felipe — I love him!”Kelvin, unmoved, folded his arms. “Just not as much as you love your money and your... ‘investments.’”Diane lifted a hand, hoping to bring reason to the conversation. “Suzy, I’ve turned a deaf ear to all the gossip about you. I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane... I don’t know why Felipe insists on believing the lies João Paulo QUEIRÓS keeps spinning!”Daryl’s expression darkened. “So the problem lies with the journalist, then. Looks like I’ll have to deal with
Chapter 3235 I Don’t Want Cursed Money
The Mountain Penthouse living room was filled with tension that morning. Everyone was taken aback as the truth behind the fight that had sent Felipe to the hospital came to light.“Well, if that’s how it is...” Daryl began, clearly processing the news.Diane, urgent to defend her son, jumped in. “But wait, why exactly did Felipe and Luís decide to fight?”Suzy’s lips curled into a sly smile. It was time to drop the bomb.“According to my uncle Eugenio,” she began, “Felipe barged into his office and announced that he wanted to break up with me — because my uncle was happy about me being featured on the cover of Maggiezine.”Everyone looked even more stunned.“Wait, what does that have to do with anything?” Kelvin asked, frowning.Suzy explained, “Felipe saw my uncle thanking Luís for sort of encouraging me to accept the interview with Maggie.”Daryl exhaled sharply. “So my son just had a jealous outburst. That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you
Chapter 3234 The Girlfriend Showed Up
At the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin and Daryl were relieved that everything had turned out okay. Diane and Karen were nearby, on the sofas, chatting cheerfully. “God was merciful and allowed our son to live a few more years,” Diane declared. “Now, you both need to rest,” Karen patted Kelvin’s chest. “We slept beautifully while you two were in that sterile lounge.” Kelvin yawned once more. “I think I’ll take my dear wife’s advice; what do you think, Daryl?” “Who said we own the place?” Daryl yawned as well. The ladies laughed at their funny husbands. The doorbell rang. Tony passed through the living room, offering, “I’ll get it.” When Tony opened the door, he was surprised by the visitor. “Miss Cogo?” “How funny, you don’t call me by my first name. Did Felipe manage to talk to you before the coma?” Suzy asked bitterly, without smiling. Tony reacted perplexed by this torrent of unfriendly words. “Uh... Come in, please.” Suzy entered, ready for the storm. “Who is it, big brothe
Chapter 3233 A Surprising Report
The next day, Matthew Hogan entered the General Hospital lounge and found Daryl and Kelvin incredibly exhausted but hopeful. “Doctor, how did it go?” Daryl nearly jumped on Matthew. “Calm down, the patient survived the surgery. It’s just a matter of time before he’s back in his room.” “Oh, thank God!” Kelvin cheered. Daryl couldn’t resist and hugged Matthew. “Thank you so much, doctor!” Matthew smiled, somewhat awkwardly, but aware that it was a common reaction. “You’re welcome, we did everything we could.” “Yeah, I understand.” Daryl released the hug, rubbing his eyes — whether from sleep or wiping away a tear. “It’s going to take a little while. I suggest you both go home and rest a bit,” Matthew said. “I think we’ll do just that,” Kelvin yawned. “Now that the danger has passed, I think I deserve it. Doctor, let us know if anything happens,” Daryl requested, patting the doctor’s shoulder. “I’ll do. And congratulations to you both.” Matthew left the lounge. Kelvin yawned a
Chapter 3232 The Detective I Trust
At the Rocha Hotel, Eugenio and Jake are talking to Suzy about what is happening. Jake was upset. “Suzy, haven’t you gone to visit your boyfriend yet?” “I don’t know if it’s a good idea to show up there right now.” Suzy lowered her head. “The fight happened... here?” Eugenio responded indignantly, “Yes, in my beloved living room. Luís lost his temper when Felipe called him ‘Spanish Stallion.’“ Suzy lifted her head, completely changing her posture. “WHAT? Well, then, the beating didn’t come out of nowhere!” “Come on, sis, don’t go along with this,” Jake advised her. “They’re saying Felipe’s condition is serious.” “Serious is Luís getting teased every single day by the nickname he despises the most!” Suzy exclaimed. Eugenio decided to tell the whole story, “Suzy, there’s a lot more you don’t know.” “Tell me, uncle!” “Felipe, before being assaulted, said he wouldn’t continue dating you, claiming that the Cogo family would always prefer Luís.” Suzy reacted, paralyzed by this inf

Rodrigo and Nadia entered the General Hospital lounge, finding Karen and Diane. “We’re here! Where’s Daryl?” Nadia approached the couch. “He went to check with Kelvin for more information,” Diane sniffed. “Thanks for coming.” “We wouldn’t be family if we didn’t show up,” Nadia sat down near them. “And I’m a mother too.” Rodrigo poured himself some coffee. “Any news?” Diane took a deep breath. “Felipe is still awake. Dr. Hogan said the tests revealed a concussion, and they’re now deciding if surgery will be necessary.” “How horrible.” Nadia shuddered. “Well, whether surgery is necessary or not, I hope everything goes well for Felipe.” “Now, I find it strange that Suzy still hasn’t shown up!” Karen frowned. “Did you see her outside?” “No. We thought she was inside or with Daryl,” Nadia replied honestly. Diane shook her head. “No, guys, I can’t believe Suzy would choose to work or handle investments instead of checking on her boyfriend!” Rodrigo took a sip – the coffee wasn’t a
Chapter 3230 The Lady of Lagoon City Makes a Powerful Speech
At Vaztrans, William swallowed hard before answering Sofia’s question.“Sofia, your cousin really went too far this time,” he began cautiously.“What do you mean?” Sofia narrowed her eyes. “I know Luís can be a bit difficult, but—”“Yes, the hot Spanish blood speaks louder sometimes, right?” William took a deep breath. “Luís assaulted Felipe. Daryl rushed to the hospital.”Sofia reacted with her mouth open, holding her breath.Then she composed herself. “How could he do such a thing?”“Do you want to hear my guess?” William asked with a sly smile.“No! It can’t be because of Suzy Cogo!” Sofia ran her hands through her hair as if to pull it out.“It seems we were wrong to have accepted her partnership, huh?” William shook his head.“If she starts to tarnish Vaztrans’ reputation...” Sofia paced around the office. “First, her statement: her reluctance to raise the salary of the employees here. Now, this love triangle that I thought was over...”“Everaldo warned us to be careful with her,”
Chapter 3229 Despair at the General Hospital
At Vaztrans, William and Daryl were discussing the repercussions of Suzy’s article in Maggiezine.“People are accepting Suzy’s apologies and explanations,” William broke the silence, holding a copy.Daryl pursed his lips. “Whatever. Sometimes I think João Paulo is lurking, ready to pounce on anything to throw us into confusion.”“But the salary bonus we promised will be paid, right?” William smirked.“Of course, what choice do we have?” Daryl pointed to the magazine. “She made it clear in the interview. We’re not going to contradict her, are we?”William laughed ironically. “It seems Suzy is going to be the kind of person who does anything to get out of trouble, even if it means contradicting herself.”Daryl’s cell phone rang, and he answered, seeing it was Diane. “My dear is calling. Hello, Di?”Diane was at the hospital entrance, trying to be strong. “Hello, Daryl. We need you at the hospital.”“What happened?” Daryl’s eyes widened.“Luís Vasquez beat our son to a pulp, as they say,
