Building My Life Chapter 1745 Distrusting the Host
A week later, Beto received the first letter from his children. He smiles and his eyes fill with tears.“So, dear, how are they?” Teresa approaches her beloved.They are in one of the living rooms of the Rocha Mansion as guests. Beto delights in the soft upholstery of the sofa.Beto responds, “They ate the expected chocolate cake, Grandpa Raymond welcomed them with hugs and kisses, Grandma Cristina and Seu Moacyr visited them too... and Mom Pamela is working as an executive secretary.”The last part of the letter left a bitter taste in Beto's mouth. He is certain that Pamela is actually her boss's lover and that her position as secretary is merely a cover.Teresa has the same feeling, “Well, the kids are at Grandpa’s house, right?”“Yes, they are re-meting Junior. The boy must be gigantic.” Beto scratches his chin, “Sixteen years old, older than Caio.”“Can I read the letter?”“Sure.” Beto passes the letter to his girlfriend.But when Teresa picks up the letter, she notices Beto's som
Building My Life Chapter 1746 The Love Nest?
At the Rocha Mansion, Teresa wants to know what Beto means by suspecting Josias.“Darling, you're not thinking of making up rumors and gossip about the man who saved our lives, are you?”“These aren’t rumors.” Beto responds frowning and slightly rude, “I overheard the conversation, and was present when they mentioned the loan shark.”“The loan shark?” Teresa is confused.“That guy who ordered to collect the debt from Josias’s father and the henchmen ended up killing him.” Beto responds, “Tiago Bento said that Renan Vasconcelos was the criminal's henchman, but when he was killed, Renan fled to Victoria... and now he's back as an industrialist.”Teresa also feels strange, “And this has to do with Josias?”“That's what I didn't understand... Mr. Bento also said that he recommended Secretary Ernesto to flee. As far as I knew, Ernesto and Lilian went to take care of her mother who had cancer. Was that then a lie?”“Ernesto also knows Renan Vasconcelos...?” Teresa covers her mouth with her
Building My Life Chapter 1747 A New Love for Isabel?
At Rocha Mansion, Katherine and Teresa sunbathe on lounge chairs by the pool. The sun is excellent, and maids serve them orangeade. Katherine is wearing sunglasses.Not far from them, a portable radio plays “Love Won't Wait” by Gary Barlow.Teresa asks, “What is happening in the 90s? Countless groups are breaking up. Did you know this singer was from Take That?”Katherine gasps, “No, impossible! What a horror, our adolescence is falling apart...”“Well, I collect the records they released as memorabilia.” Teresa smiles.“So, Tess, are you enjoying staying at the mansion? Josias nailed it when he built this place.”The mention of Josias makes Teresa remember the conversation she had with Beto. Would it be wise...?“Kate, what do you know about the loan shark?” Teresa asks without thinking.Katherine removes her sunglasses, “I don't want my face to be marked. Did you mention the moneylender, the evil one who killed my late father-in-law?”Teresa wiggles, “Believe me, my dear, nobody mis
Building My Life Chapter 1748 The Nightclub Owner
At the police station, Beto is arguing with Amoreira about the clowning going on at the police station. Both are in the detective's office.“Mr. Amoreira, how are the investigations into Renan Vasconcelos going?”“The sergeant stuck them in that place!” Amoreira barks, pounding on the desk piled high with copies of Maggiezine.Beto snorts, “There's no way, the madman will end up kidnapping and killing my dear sister. And the worst of all is that my life is also in danger when he thinks I am her lover!”Amoreira purses his lips in disgust, “I thought you were Miss Reis's brother.”“Of course we are siblings; so it indicates how much Mr. Vasconcelos is sick and retarded! He cannot live in a society! How did he manage to be an industrialist?”“According to what I read in Maggiezine, he took over the company built by their parents, who are now in their advanced age.”Beto tries to reconcile this information with what he knows, “So, he ran away from here after the loan shark died and took
Building My Life Chapter 1749 Permission from the Mayor
Vera is sitting comfortably on the sofa while listening to the song “Cantare é d'Amore”, by Amedeo Minghi. Someone outside claps and she gets up to see who it is.Through the living room window, she smiles, “Beto! To what do I owe the honor of your visit?”“Sister, we need to talk urgently. It's time you knew some truths.”Vera worries and hurriedly opens the door for Beto, “Get in quick, bro. I don't want Renan's spies to see you.”“Do you think they will dare to do so?” Beto enters and Vera closes the door.“You never know with these freaks. So what's the big news?"Beto takes a deep breath. He's sweaty and his face shows big brother's concern, “I just came from the police station. Do you know why Mr. Vasconcelos 'saved' you from the nightclub and you were never bothered again?"“Because the imbecile thought he was going to marry me,” Vera speaks with disdain.“It's more than that, Vera. Renan Vasconcelos owns the nightclub.”Vera is stunned to the extreme. What?******At the polic
Building My Life Chapter 1750 Deep and Detailed Explanation
At Simeon's house, Vera turns off the radio so she can talk better with Beto.“Beto, please, don't lie to me...” She's shocked, she doesn't know where to turn.Beto leads Vera to the sofa as if she were an elderly woman, “Sit here, little sis. I know this comes as a shock to you, but unfortunately, that was the result of the Amoreira investigation.”“At least some law enforcement official decided to do something.” Vera says ironically, “For a moment I thought Renan was above the law.”“We're going to defeat this guy, Vera, and everything will go back to normal. After all, it ties in with some of the stuff I've heard. For example, while Renan was staying at the Rocha Hotel, there was an unusual influx of prostitutes.”“You think he owns a prostitution ring and I was part of it without knowing it?”Beto crosses his arms, “Vera, how did you get into this mess?”“I read the wanted ads and found the ad looking for a nightclub employee,” Vera answers simply.Beto narrows his eyes, “Just tha
Building My Life Chapter 1751 Matter of Your Interest
At Crystal Blue, the discussion continues between Renan and the Mountain brothers.Renan looks at the table kicked by Renan, “Poor table, Mr. Mountain.”“Don't worry about it. I kicked the table thinking I'd kick your head!” Kelvin blusters.“Should I take that as a threat?”Daryl walks over and tries to lead the freak out, “Mr. Vasconcelos, there is not the slightest reason for you to stay here. Please, leave.”“I just wanted to know how Melissa is doing!” Renan feels entitled to feel misunderstood, “Why do you think I want to hurt her?”“Because you insist on being around her when she doesn't want you,” Daryl responds sagely.“When she gets to know me better—”Kelvin can't take it anymore and punches the businessman, knocking him out.“KELVIN!” Daryl scolds him.“Looks like this asshole only understands this language, Daryl!” Kelvin exclaims, “We've been asking him to leave for ages, but he won't!”Renan wakes up from the temporary stupor and massages his sore chin, “Ouch... now the

Beto returns to the Rocha Mansion. Teresa is in the living room watching ‘Sweet Love’. But when the show enters the commercial break, she readily pays attention to her boyfriend.“And then, dear? How did your sister do?”“She's fine, Tess,” Beto responds happily.“What about this talk that the mayor released the investigation into Renan Vasconcelos?” Teresa is hopeful, “Do you think we will finally get peace and security?”“Sure, darling, trust God and He'll take care of the rest. Our part we have already done.” Beto kisses her affectionately on the cheek.“Then continue to watch the soap opera with me, the episode is interesting.” Teresa hooks her arm through her boyfriend's arm and won't let go.Usually, Beto would protest, but he is so happy with his younger sister's imminent release that he agrees to watch the show.******Josias visits Crystal Blue to gather more information about Melissa.“Hello, Mountain Brothers! Are you managing to ensure Melissa's peace and security?”Daryl

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,
