Building My Life Chapter 1990 I Don't Accept Being Fired
Josias is at a loss with the accusation that Zedekiah leveled against him and the company.“Mr. Nogueira, the accusation is very serious. Please come to headquarters so we can talk further with our HR—”“I can't! I have to take care of my son who is still lying in the hospital! I'm trying to collect medical bills from Will Campos, but he won't even answer the phone, damn it!”Josias is extremely embarrassed, “OK, I'm going to the hospital right now.” He looks over at Octavio and Tiago and notices their expressions, “I'm sure I'll keep an eye on it, don't worry.”“Okay, we really need to sort this mess out. Bye, thanks!” Zedekiah hangs up.Josias takes a deep breath and finishes the call. He glares at his partners, “OK, do you want to explain to me why I wasn't informed of this?”Tiago clears his throat, “Master, I didn't think the matter would yield so much. It happened while you were in Rio de Janeiro, so we didn't want to bother you.”Octavio adds, “Some girls at school bothered Ros
Building My Life Chapter 1991 This Isn't What We Came For
In the Mountain Penthouse, Melissa wants to take Alan's mind off his worries.“Son, I hope you are more relaxed. First, you are very worried about your Uncle Will's attitudes. Then, you were bothered by Kate's attitude, and now, you want to wage war against your half-brother?”“I don't want to war with him.” Alan defends himself, “I want to defend myself.”“I assure you, there is nothing for you to defend yourself with, my son. Concentrate on your studies.” Melissa hugs him, “No one will take what's rightfully yours.”“I hope not, Mom.” Alan sighs, “But I feel like Angela sent her son here. If he can't outsmart me, at least he'll cause a lot of trouble on her behalf.”The embrace is broken. Melissa questions him, “And you think your father will allow these schemes?”“He's been allowing too much of Kate,” Alan remarks.“Not so much. He fired her from Rocha Constructions and she's been behaving, afraid of losing the post of Mrs. Rocha to Angela.” Melissa winks, “Don't underestimate your

At school, Caroline gets annoyed with Alan always bad-mouthing others.“Alan, I think you need to review your attitude.” She complains, “You're always bad-mouthing others, thinking the worst of them. It's not enough to hate Uncle Will and Kate, now are you going to include David on your list?”“Carol is right, Alan.” Rosemary opines, “David's barely back from Rio and you're already seeing him as a threat. Don't tell me you're fighting for the throne again! That's so ridiculous...”Alan shoots the girls a disdainful look, “Ridiculous will be the day Angela Souza and Kate show up in the conference room demanding that their children replace me. Don't you understand? Those vipers are just waiting for one misstep from me to—“Caio gestures, “Whoa, take it easy, young man! Don't you think it's a little early to be worrying about that? You're still fourteen, you don't have to be vigilant about anything.”“There was that day when I was forced to befriend Reuben in order not to lose my throne,

Hours passed, and Teresa gave birth to Maycon Robinson Reis.Beto is watching his newborn son sleep peacefully in his mother's arms. He looks up to the sky and speaks emotionally, “Another grandson for you, my father!”Vera is near the bed with tears in her eyes, “I must hurry to cheer up my father, if he has forgiven me.”“What is it, little sister?” Beto turns to her, “In heaven there is no hatred or grudge. And you’ll have your moment.”Teresa nods, “Yes, and it will be wonderful.”“Rest, dear.” Beto kisses his wife's forehead.Rosemary and Pedro come in, “Can we see him?”“He's still sleeping, but you can come in!” Beto calls the two.Rosemary gets emotional, “Look, Pedro! We have another little brother!”“How cool! We really are a big family!” Pedro exclaims.Beto swallows hard. He's going to have to go out of his way to say that he has three kids instead of two.In the hallway, other friends are waiting to say congratulations.William, however, wants to cause confusion, “Guys, t
Building My Life Chapter 1994 A Better Future
William tries to dodge the obligation imposed on Josias as much as possible.“Josias, once again you're asking me to pay for something that has nothing to do with me!”Josias is indignant, “What do you mean? Caio is your son, it's your responsibility!”“I don't need to be reminded of this.” William retorts.Beto chimes in, “Will, I had to take Caio back to my apartment because you weren't answering your phone. He had his uniform shirt ripped and bloody. What's going on?”William swallows hard and replies, “I unplug the phone cord so I can sleep soundly. The pizzeria's activity has doubled and I'm not keeping up with so much work!”Josias kind of accepts the explanation, “OK, that means you're not short of cash, correct? The Pizzeria is making a profit, and you have a reserve in the bank, right?”William grits his teeth, “That reserve wasn't to spend on medical expenses for people I don't know!”“Unfortunately, Will, that money will have to be used,” Josias determines as if he owned th

At Rocha Mansion, Katherine walks in with David after enrolling him in Sunset Village Elementary School. The employees have already started with the Christmas decorations.“Phew, David! You're gonna go to a rich school!”“But aren't we rich?” David asks mockingly.Katherine clears her throat, “Ehr... I mean, you really go to a school where our social class belongs. I don't know why J.J. goes to that public school...”“Transfer him here so he can keep me company.” David smiles like the serpent.Katherine smiles slightly with her hand on her chin, “And so he doesn't get too close to Alan...”“Did you mention Alan?” David suddenly asks.“Wow! Don't scare me, David, I was just talking to myself.” Katherine quips, “How's your mother's business?”David lights up his face with a smile, “It's growing non-stop! Atelier Souza is becoming the point of the South Zone.”Katherine has a jolt, “Did you mean North Zone?”“No, I'm talking about the South Zone.” David confirms without noticing that Kat

Josias visits Marçal Publishing and finds Maggie and Gabriela preparing the article.“Let's use this photo for the cover.” Maggie highlights a photograph.“Yes, it turned out pretty.” Gabriela nods, “May Tess Reis's dream come true and let Maycon Reis become famous.”“Good morning!” Josias knocks on the open door.“Josias, come closer!” Maggie gestures.Gabriela feels shivers down her spine and makes an effort to be natural, “Good morning, Mr. Rocha.”Josias smiles gently at Gabriela, “Miss Alves, I heard that you are going to be a colleague of my younger brother, João Paulo. Does that confirm, Maggie?”Maggie quickly confirms, “Yes, yes, yes! It was your request to hire him, right? I was wondering why he didn't come sooner.”“He was working on a newspaper in the Capital.” Josias proudly replies, “But the longing for his family spoke louder. That's why he's coming back, to my delight.” He turns to Gabriela, “I hope you can receive him with affection and friendship.”“I'm sure we'll be

Now the city is decorated for Christmas this year. Mayor Tobias spared no effort or money to impress voters. A huge tree was placed in the middle of Ibrahim Square and the residents were delighted with the novelty.Josias was passing through the square and looked at the window of the Crystal Blue. The restaurant was filled with families wanting to have a Christmas dinner. He narrowed his eyes and could see Melissa among them, helping Kelvin. Josias smiles and decides to go there.When he walked in, Melissa saw him and her charming smile immediately faded. Josias did not understand.“Hi, Melissa. Won't you wish me a Merry Christmas?”“What do you think you're doing here?” Melissa asks sourly.“I just came to say hello to you. I don't have any tables reserved.” Josias is on the alert.“Good thing, because we are fully booked today.” Melissa looks at the booking book, “And it would be hard for me for you to celebrate the holiday with... your family.”Josias tries to stare at Melissa but

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, “
Chapter 3246 Courted by Every Man in Lagoon City
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

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—”
