Building My Life Chapter 1927 Katherine Won't Let It End
At the Marçal bookstore, Isabel was visibly upset by the question of the journalist that couldn't be more than twenty-five. Is he still an intern or apprentice to Vernon?“Young man, I don't want to discuss this unpleasant matter.”“Do you think the swimming instructor is innocent or guilty?” He insists as if he didn't hear what Isabel said.Francisco tries to push the journalist, “Comrade, move away or ask questions concerning the autograph session. We don't want to get involved in other people's affairs.”“But you are practically the family!” The journalist tries to convince them, “Mr. Mountain, you are Melissa Campos's current husband's uncle. Surely you—”The door opens and Bernardo and Maggie enter.“Is everything okay here, guys?”“Bernie, get rid of this abusive journalist!” Isabel demands, “He doesn't want to ask about my books or my family; he only came to reap more controversial statements about Josias and Kate!”Maggie takes the lead, “Young man, I suggest you stick to what
Building My Life Chapter 1928 Session of Confusion
Isabel's autograph session began. Security guards and store inspectors had to control the flow of fans so they wouldn't crowd like wild animals at the famous writer's table.Some had already bought the book but wanted to buy another one just to have Isabel Freire's valuable autograph. Who knows, in the future, this copy may be sold for a more appreciated value...Francisco being on Isabel's side scared away men between 50 and 60 years old who were romantically interested in her. Isabel never showed her age and was considered a 'hot grandma' by them.“Honey, why do readers break their smiles when it's their turn?”Francisco smiles from the corner of his mouth, “It's not because they see you, honey, it's because they see ME. Smarties...”“Your girlfriend is famous and coveted by senior males. Can you handle it, honey?” Isabel asks playfully.“Of course!” Francisco responds good-naturedly, “At the end of the day, I'm the one with you...”Isabel melts like sugar. The next reader appears a

The press who were dying to glean some bombshell information during Isabel's book signing rushed to see Mrs. Kate Rocha slapping Mrs. Maggie Marçal.Celebrity fight always gives an audience!But Bernardo and Francisco were faster and stopped the two ladies.Bernardo roars, “What's going on here? Mrs. Rocha, why did you hit my wife?”“Your wife is a damn gossiper!” Katherine screams at the top of her lungs, “By what authorization did she have to divulge personal matters?”Maggie massages her burning cheek. Bernardo keeps holding her so she doesn't jump on top of Katherine.“Kate, I thought I was doing a public benefit!” Maggie asserts, indignant, “That man harassed you. Why would you want to keep it hidden?”“This wasn’t necessarily hidden, the police were already taking care of it!” Katherine retorts, “Now the swimming instructor is going to flee Brazil when he sees his face in the magazine. That’s if he hasn’t already!”Bernardo responds, “Wait, until yesterday, this guy was giving C
Building My Life Chapter 1930 Josias Goes After His Wife
Josias could hardly believe it when he heard that his wife had been involved in fights. He turned red with anger and his eyes boiled with indignation, “What does this mean? How did my wife get involved in such a scandal?”“Melissa would never get involved in that.” Rosemary asserts.Beto hurriedly approaches, “Daughter, don’t get involved in this matter.”Josias nods, “It's okay, Beto. I need to check this further. Excuse me, see you another day!”Rosemary and Pedro say goodbye, “Bye, Uncle Josias!”Josias waves goodbye with a slight smile and leaves.Rosemary turns to Beto, “Dad, now that it's just us, we need to talk about our family.”Beto is interested, “What is it, Rose?”“Will the other baby my mother bore count as our half-brother as well?” Rosemary asks with displeasure.“I don't even know his name.” Pedro scratches his head, confused.Beto purses his lips. Pamela's promiscuity confuses her children! “Guys, in a way, he's your half-brother. Now I cannot guarantee a normal coex
Building My Life Chapter 1931 Kate Explains by Not Explaining
Katherine is crying her eyes out on the bed in the master suite at Rocha Mansion. She's already in her nightgown even though it's still afternoon.J.J. enters the room and is startled by what he sees, “Mom, are you feeling ill?”“Don’t worry, son. Mom has already taken a pill. Go play with Alan.”“Alan left, remember?”“Fortunately...”“What?” J.J. widens his eyes.“It was nothing, son, Mommy has a fever.” Katherine doesn't face her son.“I'm going to check if Daddy's coming.” J.J. slowly walks out of the suite.Coincidentally, Josias appears and bumps into his son in the hallway, “J.J., is your mother here?”“Yes, Dad! She's in the room with a fever! Don't worry, she's already taken a pill.” J.J. responds with an angelic smile, “Daddy, Mommy isn’t going to die, is she?”Josias had to stop himself from saying yes. He just strokes his son's hair and leads him further away from the master suite door.Katherine heard Josias's voice and tried to force tears to sad him.Josias returns to t
Building My Life Chapter 1932 Tiago Bento to the Rescue
At Marçal Bookstore, Wallace, Vera, and Reuben appeared to greet Isabel. The session is finally over and Isabel exercises her hand to relieve the pain of so much autographing.“It seemed like the queue would never end!” Isabel exclaims with a smile, “But I'm glad the session was a success.”Wallace clears his throat, “I was at the construction site when the radio announced an assault here.”“Yes, Kate came out of nowhere and slapped Maggie. It was because of the article.” Isabel shrugs.Vera wonders, “But why is Kate nervous? I think everyone should know about the depraved instructor!”Isabel purses her lips, “Tiago Bento and Carmen informed us that Mr. Guzman is innocent and that Kate invented this slur. It's all a misunderstanding that's growing like a snowball. Josias, the poor fellow, still hasn't read Maggiezine or his father's article.”“This is impossible!” Wallace exclaims.“That's why I also feel like there's something wrong with this story.” Isabel scratches her chin, “But m
Building My Life Chapter 1933 The Mountain Family Organizes Itself
The next day, Melissa is in her office trying in vain to call Josias. She has the phone pressed to her ear, waiting, waiting... but the call doesn't go through.“Ah, these devices are not as shown in the commercials... and one of them will sponsor 'Sweet Love'!” Melissa deposits the device on the desk.Melissa still doesn't understand that it's not her device that has something wrong, but Josias's cell phone that is charging the battery.And this is because Josias spent the rest of the day 'disciplining' the 'bad girl' Katherine, he forgot that his cell phone was dead. Now he noticed when he got out of the shower.Katherine still has a seductive expression on her face, “I guess my 'discipline' wasn't enough yet...”“What is it, woman?” Josias chuckles, “Don't tempt me. We have appointments to make.”Katherine is afraid. If she could, she would spend the rest of her life making love to Josias only to not face the real world, itching to question her about what happened with Cláudio.Jos
Building My Life Chapter 1934 Going Angry
Josias enters Rocha Constructions, but this time, many people avoid eye contact or greet him in a low and shy tone. Josias realizes that it’s a matter of the mess involving his wife and decides to fix it.When he walks into his office, Pollyanna is still adjusting the temperature on the air conditioner, “Oh, good morning, boss...”Josias is serious-faced, “Pollyanna, where is yesterday's paper? Nobody let me read it. And get a copy of Maggiezine urgently.”Pollyanna swallows hard, “We are very sorry for the slip, sir. Excuse me!”When leaving, Pollyanna was going to leave but she bumps into Octavio. Her look said it all and he goes in to talk to his best friend.“Josias, you didn't ask for a copy of Maggiezine, did you?”“But of course I did!” Josias goes straight to the drinks table and pours himself a shot, “I want to know what's going on with my wife. What motivated her to slap Maggie Marçal? She is editor-in-chief of the most famous magazine in Espírito Santo, I cannot allow Mrs.

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

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—”
