Building My Life Chapter 1995 Patrick and Caio Ask For Forgiveness
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
Building My Life Chapter 1998 Expectations for the Year 2000
Josias takes a deep breath and tries to explain his point of view to an irrational Katherine, “Honey, J.J. was already used to Alan and Caroline. In fact, he was getting along with all his friends. Why isolate it?”Katherine is horrified, “I won’t isolate him! J.J. will go to study with David! Or are you not considering your child as good company? Why does DAVID have to study alone?”Josias smiles slightly, “David is going to study here because Angela has determined so. And David wasn't opposed to the idea. If he wanted to go to the same school as his half-brothers, I wouldn't object.”“So there you go, J.J. is going to study at the school here because I'm his mother and I have the best in mind for him.” Katherine sits in the armchair, pretending.Josias doesn't buy her act, “Kate, stop acting. You felt jealous of Angela for wanting David to study at the school here and immediately transferred our son without telling me first.”Katherine tries to maintain the pretense, “Oh, how absurd
Building My Life Chapter 1999 Keep An Eye On David?
Josias visits Elza and Vernon in their new apartment, located on the tenth floor.“Sonny! Glad you came.” Vernon opens the door for him.Josias searches the apartment. The predominant colors are coffee, brown, and white in different shades. The furniture is mostly modern, but certain pieces like the armchairs have a classic touch, similar to the decoration of the Mountain Penthouse.“So, son, what did you think?" Elza gestures proudly.“Mom, Dad... congratulations! Now that's an address worthy of the head of journalists and a hotel manager!”Elza comments, “We didn't want to be snobby or prodigal, but... anyway, I think João Paulo deserves it when he comes back.”“I am dying to see my little brother again.” Josias anxiously states, “I have already asked Miss Alves and Maggie to take good care of him.”“It's a shame I'm not there anymore.” Vernon sighs, “But I trust my puppy's dexterity.”Josias declined to comment that Vernon was kicked out of Marçal Publishing because of his bad beha
Building My Life Chapter 2000 No Blessings This Time
Josias is uncomfortable with Vernon and Elza thinking they will have to watch David.“Guys, what's going on here? David needs to be watched from what? Don't tell me you're going to echo Kate's thoughts.”Elza reacts negatively, “Don't compare us to the troublemaker, son.”Josias is surprised, “But she also thinks that Angela sent David on a secret mission. Would you believe me if I told you that she transferred J.J. to Sunset Village Elementary School just because David goes there?”Vernon smirks, “She got jealous, simple as that.”“That's what I thought, but Kate denied it. David popped into our conversation and berated her the way I do. He took after me.” Josias smiles in satisfaction.Elza approaches him, “Son, if you can guarantee that David won't cause problems concerning Alan's succession... Look, he's my grandson too. That's why I wouldn't want to witness infighting.”Josias is calm, “Everyone already knows that Alan will replace me at Rocha Constructions. Anyone who disputes m
Building My Life Chapter 2001 The Year 2000
2000.Many Brazilians mistakenly welcomed the 21st century, others committed suicide thinking the world was going to end this year.But our hero Josias did neither one nor the other.He continued to work hard and protect Katherine as if she were a piece of china because of the curse Everaldo had uttered.While some fear the future, others rejoice and swim headlong.Wallace and Vera, for example, were finally able to celebrate their wedding without fear of Pamela intruding on the ‘forever hold your peace’ part.“By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You can kiss the bride!” Father Mathias, famously known among the group, united and blessed another couple.To the applause of guests and family, Wallace and Vera finally kiss like newlyweds.Isabel cries and looks up, missing Harold and Uélton, “You would love to be here.”When Wallace and Vera walk down the aisle, they get the famous rice shower.Josias applauds with satisfaction, “Uélton, your older brother is
Building My Life Chapter 2002 The Rocha Family's New Heartthrob
Josias narrows his eyes and doesn't recognize the owner of the broad, muscular back.The last time he saw his younger brother was at his and Katherine's wedding. Josias had already noticed that João Paulo was working out and getting bigger.But was this big, muscular, and attractive man the younger brother he met in 1985?“João Paulo?”The man turns and smiles, “Josias!”Josias got shocked. Yes! It's João Paulo! But......Since when did João Paulo become a Calvin Klein underwear model?Josias noticed his square, masculine jaw, three days' worth of stubble, his shoulders and arms defined and toned, his chest large and lightly hairy behind his white knit shirt, and thick legs wrapped in brand-new jeans. Josias knew that if his brother lifted the hem of his shirt, the six-pack would appear perfectly sculpted.He decided to give the brother he hadn't seen in so long a hug and he felt crushed by the bear hug very strong and firm.“Little brother! You literally grew up! You're my height...”

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

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

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—”
