Building My Life Chapter 1869 What Will We Do?
“Shut up, WILLIAM?”This question was asked by Dora when she was with Simeon at home in the living room. The sportscaster was lamenting the loss of the Brazilian soccer team to the French in the World Cup final. Since Simeon and Dora didn't want to suffer defeat anymore, they decided to talk about what was going on in their family.“Exactly, dear.” Simeon nods, “I couldn't take it. I saw William through our grandson. So the best way to have ended that fight was to call Alan by the name of the person he hates the most.”“Kids don't hate, honey.” Dora shakes her head.“OK, let’s say this is about dislike.” Simeon gestures. He picks up the TV remote and turns it off, “Alan had a meltdown just like our son and locked himself in his room. Poor Reuben stood in the middle of the living room not understanding where he went wrong.”Dora laces her fingers together, worried, “I don't like this, honey. When Reuben understands that he is being snubbed by Alan, he will buy a revolver when he comes
Building My Life Chapter 1870 Let the Games Begin
Josias shows up at Rocha Constructions and is greeted by everyone, from the girls who work in the lobby to the elevator operator and the cleaning ladies. He is truly respected and revered by all.When he arrives at his office floor, Josias finds Tiago waiting for him in the hallway.“Master, can we speak in your office?”“And when we couldn’t talk?” Josias jokes.“The matter is serious. I understand that the succession of this company is open again. Would that be necessary... or prudent?”As they walk to the office, Josias replies, “My successor is still Alan, Tiago.”“But it's that word 'still' that concerns me, master.” Tiago asserts, “You don't want Angela and Katherine to fight again and be Melissa's enemies, do you?”Josias takes the key from his pocket and unlocks his office door. Pollyanna had left the air conditioning on and the room was cool, “No, I don't. But my son is not making it easy for me.”Tiago rolls his eyes, “What did he do now?”“My ex-father-in-law said he was be

In the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin is outraged by a visitor mistreating the lady of the home.“Mrs. Rocha, Katherine, I don't know what you want to be called: don't come to my home to insult my wife.”Katherine smiles venomously and retorts rudely, “Don't you realize that none of this is really yours? You are living in the penthouse that was purchased by Josias and you are married to a woman who once slept with the same Josias, and to top it all off, you are raising two of Josias's children!”Melissa can't take it anymore and raises her hand to slap the insolent one, but Kelvin catches it in time.Katherine widens her eyes, “Let her go, Kelvin! Let's see if she has the nerve to slap me. In the next issue of Maggiezine, her reputation will be ruined!”“Maggie would never low herself to that role!” Melissa screams.“My dear, before she was your sister-in-law, she was editor-in-chief of the magazine that has grown the most in circulation. She wouldn't pass up this hot gossip.”Kelvin is d

Caio arrives from school still wearing his uniform, just in time to see his family arguing once more.“This is the height of absurdity!” Dora exclaims, “Caio said he would stay at the pizzeria helping you and you encouraged him. Now you want him to steal Alan's throne?”Caio widens his eyes at this information. But the adults have their backs to him. William could see him, but he's focused on pestering his parents.“Yes, I want the best for my child.” William asserts, “I agreed to let him stay with me at the pizzeria because I didn't see how he could own Rocha Constructions. But now that Alan is failing and proving to be an annoying guy, why can't I dream about the possibility? Josias is fond of my son and is sure to see to it if you ask—”Caio can't take it anymore and chimes in, “OK, let's stop this insane conversation now! What's going on here, can't you spend a week in peace in this family?”William smiles slyly, “Sonny, the position is open for you to succeed Josias in the compan

At Marçal Publishing, Bernardo is turning on his computer when the secretary appears in the doorway.“Excuse me, Mr. Marçal. Mr. Oliveira, from LCN, would like to speak with you.”“Send him in, even though we don’t have an appointment.” Bernardo is curious.Daniel enters the office in a suit and tie and with a sly smile, “Hello, Mr. Marçal!”“Mr. Oliveira, I am curious about your presence.” Bernardo greets him by shaking hands, “What can I do for you?”“Remember our proposal to adapt Isabel Freire’s latest book, ‘Love Spins the World’?”“Exactly. You came to give the answer.” Bernardo sits down.Daniel takes a seat in the visitors' seat, “Actually, I came to ask another question. Isabel Freire appeared on LCN announcing that she intends to write the biography of Uélton Freire.”“It's her late youngest son, you know.” Bernard nods.“The Board asked if it wouldn't be more interesting for us to do a limited series based on his biography instead of the other book.” Daniel smiles, showing
Building My Life Chapter 1874 A Risky Idea by LCN
At Marçal Publishing, Maggie was about to enter when she overhears the conversation between Daniel and Bernardo.“Mr. Oliveira... the biography of Uélton Freire is still being written.” Bernardo explains, “And Mrs. Freire has not signaled that she intends to authorize the book to be adapted for TV.”Maggie's eyes widen. What is that? Is LCN wanting to explore the sadness of others?Daniel doesn't give up, “Maybe we should talk to her properly.”“If Mrs. Freire knows that the biography will be adapted, she will feel unable to write interesting details.” Bernardo raises his index finger, “And we're still forgetting one detail.”“What detail?”“Certainly Josias Rocha will be included in the biography,” Bernardo responds as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.But Daniel shrugs, “Jack Motta could perfectly play the role of Mr. Rocha, and—”Maggie can't take it anymore and chimes in, "Hey, Mr. Oliveira, stop dreaming big! We have already given you an excellent book, 'Love Spins
Building My Life Chapter 1875 Josias Is the Best Man
William is startled and unbalanced when Caio asks if he wants a taxi. He wanted to be alone so no one would know he was trying to phone the police.“Son, don't scare your father to death. My defective leg is enough.”“If you didn’t play Spider-Man—”“Are you going to forever throw this in my face?” William crouches down to pick up the crutches, “How's the pizzeria? Ready for today's service?”“Now are you worried about your business?” Caio crosses his arms, smiling wryly, “Why don't you stay here and see for yourself?”“Your grandparents didn't like to see me near the cash register not doing activities,” William responds in mockery.“You were behaving like a lazy Roman emperor, that's right!” Caio asserts, “And why do you want to talk to Sergeant Moraes? Isn’t he the policeman who hates Uncle Josias?”William slowly walks out, “Don't make me correct you about who your uncle is, boy. Kelvin Mountain is the one who should receive the title. Now excuse me, or do you want to knock me down
Building My Life Chapter 1876 Knocked Out of the Guest List
“Hey sir, you were not allowed in!” Pollyanna complains.Josias and Octavio hear the secretary's indignant voice and turn to the door after breaking the hug.Daryl is walking in and gives Pollyanna a sh*t, “Josias, will you please tell the secretary that I’m entitled to enter?”Octavio doesn't like the interruption, “It's not like that, my friend...”Josias thinks Daryl = Melissa and gestures to Octavio, “Okay, Pollyanna. Mr. Mountain can enter.”Pollyanna adopts an apologetic stance, “Oh, I didn't know he was Melissa's family. Excuse me.”“She is my sister-in-law,” Daryl responds dryly.Pollyanna hastily leaves, closing the door. Josias goes to the drinks table and starts pouring, “A drink?”Daryl smiles slightly, “I won't refuse.”“How can I help you, Daryl? Got a problem with Melissa?”Daryl doesn't like that Josias was soon asking about Melissa, but he fears running out of drink and hides his real feelings from him. Taking a few sips, he responds, “It's practically her. Josias, so

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

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

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—”
