Building My Life Chapter 2455 Opportunity Denied
At Café Montanha, Shirley visits the venue to discuss Daryl with Francisco. Isabel is present and is bothered by the invasion.“The other one came here to get another slap.”“You’re the one who’s going to get slapped, you soap opera writer!” Shirley retorts, “But I didn’t come here for that. I need to talk to Francisco.”Since Shirley didn’t call Francisco ‘my man’, Isabel decided to allow it this time. She turns to her husband, “She wants to talk to you.”Isabel turns on the radio and Pink’s song “God is a DJ” echoes through the cafeteria.Francisco approaches, but remains behind the counter, “Let’s stay at a safe distance, Shirley.”“Frank, how can you still look hot even with white hair? The years don’t pass you by.” Shirley bites her bottom lip, feeling like a 25-year-old woman, “Anyway, flirting aside, I want to know what you’ve been doing to comfort your nephew.”Isabel stifles a laugh with her hand over her mouth. Is this serious?Francisco is equally embarrassed, “Shirley, wha
Building My Life Chapter 2456 Transfer Is Security
At Café Montanha, Cláudio approaches and faces Shirley for the first time. Francisco and Isabel wonder if young Guzman knows who he is dealing with. Shirley, for her part, maintains a smile of arrogance and superiority.“So you’re the hot model who ruined Josias Rocha’s marriage, causing his wife to die?” Shirley teases him, “I missed the fun.”Claudio smiles ironically, lifting the left corner of his lips, “How funny. Who started the whole story, enlisting a poor beginner journalist to replace Katherine was your son. He learned from you to be a rogue and a schemer.”Shirley loses some of the arrogance, “Don’t insult my son! He lost the restaurant because YOU accused him—”“I’ve been in a coma for months, ma’am!” Cláudio cuts her off, “When I woke up, I was already informed that Daryl spent Christmas in pre-trial detention. He should have gone straight to jail if it wasn’t for Josias Rocha showing mercy.”“MERCY?” Shirley angrily yells, “Snatching the restaurant and forcing him to apo
Building My Life Chapter 2457 Role Switching
The time has passed. Daryl had to settle for working at Crystal Blue as an accountant and merchandise checker. It was basically what he did before, with the difference that he would now receive a salary for it.Josias showed up at the restaurant to find his nemesis in the same office, working with half his old enthusiasm.“Josias? What do you think you’re doing here?” Daryl frowns, “It’s not enough for everything you’ve done. You still need to come here and rub your victory in my face?”“Daryl, I’m just checking things out,” Josias answers coldly, unfazed by the loser’s neigh.“Well, the loser is now working as a proletarian, not as the owner of the hottest restaurant in Lagoon City. There, you know how I am. Now get the f**k out, I need to check the salmon supply.”“I’m waiting on my shrimp risotto. Excuse me.” Josias was about to leave, but he stopped in the doorway and added, “It didn’t have to end like this, Daryl.”Daryl huffs, rolls his eyes and punches the desk. Is Josias NOT G
Building My Life Chapter 2458 Thanks for the Help
Josias is surprised by Felipe and Patrick fighting at the entrance to the most exquisite restaurant in Lagoon City.“What do you two think you’re doing?” He approaches them, “Did Claudio Guzman approve of this altercation?”“No, he doesn’t even know that,” Felipe complains.Patrick smirks, “Actually, he knows and he sentenced us to change.”Felipe turns to Josias, “Mr. Rocha, look what you’ve caused! I was the maître d’, but Mr. Guzman decided to have that imbecile replace me without notifying me in advance.”Josias crosses his arms, “And you would have obediently accepted being demoted?”“NO!” Felipe roars, “It’s because of attitudes like these that I doubt that model will give me back the restaurant when I want to assume my inheritance.”“He will. I’ll be around to make sure of it.” Josias asserts decisively.“And may your homicidal father not make another fuss.” Patrick teases.Insulted, Felipe walks away into the restaurant.Josias shakes his head, “Now, THAT wasn’t cool, Pat. Wha
Building My Life Chapter 2459 How to Explain to the Son?
At the Mountain Penthouse, Felipe is talking to Diane about his new situation.“Mom, I don’t know if I’ll accept this for long.” He sits on the sofa, “Mr. Cláudio replaced me as maître d’ without telling me, and he just replaced me with Patrick, who now feels like the king of Egypt!”“Your father can talk to him.” Diane tries to lighten the situation.“I don’t know if that would do any good. They both hate each other.” Felipe frowns, “Damn it, why did Mr. Rocha have to do something like that?”Diane narrows her eyes at her son. She sits down next to him and asks in a motherly tone, “Felipe, what’s going on? Don’t you like Josias Rocha anymore?”Felipe looks at his mother, and she is startled by the ferocity she finds in her son’s gaze.“How am I supposed to like him, Mom? I don’t want to have anything to do with the Rocha family anymore. They’re indeed nice and kind, but if you let them down, they get overly cruel!”Diane gets up from the couch. She still doesn’t know how to express w
Building My Life Chapter 2460 My Dad Isn’t a Drug Addict
At the Rocha Hotel, Josias approaches Shirley as if he were walking on slippery ground, and beside him, there is a canyon. If Josias wasn’t careful, he could slip and fall into the abyss.Shirley notices this and mocks the businessman, “You can approach me without fear. I don’t bite.”“You do worse things than bite.” Josias retorts somberly. He stops some distance away from the old woman, “Tell me what you want.”“I want you to stop, just stop, with this ridiculous war as if you two were bigwigs from the underworld.” Shirley crosses her arms, “My son isn’t a bad person. That’s why he only loses to you. You’ve changed, Josias, and I wonder if that’s due to the bad influence of the Bento family.”“No one from the Bento family is around anymore, except Elisa Neves who is my neighbor.” Josias responds with some mockery, “You’re delusional, Shirley. Wouldn’t it be better for you to talk to your son and convince him that he shouldn’t go around with guns, shooting people?”“I don’t need to t

The next day, Caio is reporting to William the conversation he had with João Paulo. Both are in William’s living room, on the couch.William was smearing some cream on his left leg, “WHAT? He admitted he was nervous because I condemned him for indecency on Sunset Village beach? And what does João Paulo want me to do? Give him a badge for good behavior? If Josias finds out what his little brother is up to—”“That’s the question, Dad: shouldn’t Uncle Josias know about it?” Caio interrupts him, “Uncle João Paulo already has Sandra as a lesson. Yes, I admit that at the moment I went after him and had fun with the beauties. But, since you’re so displeased...”William pats his son on the head, “I just want a different future for you son.”“And I’m having it!” Caio smiles, “I love studying at the university, and Mr. Motta is thinking of showing me some things. One of the architects is being integrated into the Belo Horizonte office and with that, a vacancy has appeared for me.”“Yes, I’m awa
Building My Life Chapter 2462 Knowing Better
Teresa notices that Beto is grimacing in pain.“Honey, is your heart hurting again? Do you want some medicine? Do you want to go to the doctor?”Before, Teresa would ask these questions in a desperate tone, but as she now knows her husband’s condition, she is speaking as if she were a mother coaxing her son.Beto takes a deep breath and relieves himself, “It was just a scare, dear. But indeed, it’s almost time to take another pill. I think all this emotion of my little sister leaving...”“Yes, we need to take it slow. She asked me to let you know if anything happens.”Beto smiles, “She’s probably still unpacking and unboxing things in her new house. Let’s let her get settled in first.”Teresa smiles at him, calmer. She goes to the counter drawer and takes out the pill pack, “So, shall we buy the computer?”“Yes, let’s go, I want to leave things more modern for when Pedro takes over the building.” Beto takes the card, nodding.******At the Mountain Penthouse, Daryl enters Felipe’s roo

Just out of spite, David was taken to the Happiness Slum police station, where Dylan was now interrogating him and pressing him against the wall. David was shaking while handcuffed, thinking he might have a chance to escape. “What is going on here? LET ME GO! This station is not equipped to handle my problems!” Dylan sat at the desk, keeping one of his subordinates nearby, standing by the door. “Oh really? It just so happens that it’s the opposite: Commissioner Tavares said he doesn’t want to see your face at the headquarters!” David was horrified by the remark. “What does that mean? We can’t allow such abuse! Call my dad immediately!” Dylan, grinning with delight, leaned back in his chair. “Mr. Souza, it was your father who ordered us to remove you from the Rocha Constructions building.” “That’s IMPOSSIBLE! My dad never ordered Alan’s arrest!” “Isn’t it because Alan Campos Rocha has never given the police any reason to detain him?” Dylan asked ironically. “And on what charges
Chapter 3206 Is Daniela Pregnant?
At the management office of Lafayette Supermarket, Thierry was signing a fat check for a member of the Cintra family. The man, who was the victim’s brother, was staring at everyone with disdain and arrogance. “You have to understand that we can no longer shop at this supermarket, right?” he kept saying. “My poor brother used to come here because the wine prices were cheaper, but now... we’re going to have to resort to the little store closer to home, even if it costs more!” Nadia was outraged. “Mr. Cintra, don’t be arrogant!” Mr. Cintra raised his chin at Nadia. “I can sue you for this too, you know?” “No, you can’t,” Thierry emphasized, tearing the check from the invoice and hastily extending it to him. “Take it and get out of our sight!” “You are in the wrong and still want to play the victim!” Mr. Cintra simply felt entitled to cluck. “Thank goodness my brother didn’t die! Otherwise, we would tear this crappy supermarket down! It was much better when the Ramos family ran this
Chapter 3205 At the Height of Despair
The next day, Daniela was talking to Dr. Matthew Hogan at General Hospital. “Alright, Daniela,” he said with a smile. “I hope we don't find anything serious in your tests.” “Could I... be pregnant?” Daniela asked in a whisper. Talking to Matthew inevitably reminded her of Silvana Hogan, his mother and a famous obstetrician. “My mother is now retired and enjoying the Bahamas,” Matthew said kindly. “If your test results indicate you’re expecting, we’ll refer you to the appropriate department.” “Thank you so much, Dr. Hogan!” Daniela extended her hand, and Matthew shook it. A few moments later, Daniela was walking through the corridors, thinking about the possibility of being pregnant. She even placed her right hand on her belly, already imagining herself carrying the heir of the Reis family. She smiled mischievously as she recalled the countless nights of passionate love where Pedro ravaged her mercilessly, only stopping when the alarm rang the next morning. How could she not
Chapter 3204 Someone is Not Feeling Well
Melissa worried about her parents' objection regarding the twins getting involved with their paternal family. "Mom, Dad, I understand your concern." Melissa broke the silence. "But in a way, they're right. I don't have the right to completely cut them off from Kelvin. Besides, they have another little brother." Dora looked at her wristwatch. "At this hour, Mary must be in the penthouse, keeping an eye on Anthony." "Oh, did they say they were going to do that?" Melissa smiled slightly. "Yes, someone texted them asking for it. Probably Kelvin," Simeon replied seriously. Dora explained, "Daughter, let's hope Daryl doesn't take advantage of the closeness to poison our grandchildren's minds." Melissa was alarmed. "What are you saying, Mom? I won't allow that!" "No, I know you won't allow it." Dora frowned. "That's why I hope you visit Kelvin and set some boundaries." "If I bring this up, I'll unintentionally be starting a stupid war," Melissa retorted. "They know their boundaries.
Chapter 3203 Long-Term Consequences
At Rocha Constructions, Sofia is eager to prove that she was right all along about Suzy. She leaned back against Alan again, wanting information. "Dear, before we were interrupted, you were saying something about me being right to be suspicious of Suzy Cogo. I knew that smartass was planning something!" Alan scratched the back of his neck. "I feel like she was the one Everaldo mentioned in the prophecy." Sofia's eyes lit up. "That's true! Suzy is the only one investing out there! Do you think she will want a slice of Rocha Constructions?" "I sincerely hope my dad doesn't agree to sell any shares. I won't do that. Better warn Caio." Alan became serious. "Well, I'll have to put up with her at Vaztrans." Sofia sighed, feeling discouraged. Alan turned to his wife with curiosity. "Speaking of which, dear, we haven't heard any news about Vaztrans being in trouble this year. Did you finally manage to control the spending?" Sofia looked confused. "Uh, I don't know what you're talking a

Sofia reacted, obviously pleased, when none other than her husband stated that she was right.Unable to resist any longer, she sat on Alan's lap and delivered THAT delicious, passionate kiss.When the kiss ended, Alan was perplexed, eyes wide."What was that for?" He asked, lost."You silly!" Sofia began to laugh. "This is your reward for believing in me. And tonight, you'll have another reward that's under my panties—"The last phrase was clearly heard by Caio, who was opening the door at that moment.Sofia quickly bounced off Alan's lap, trying to disguise the intimacy. Caio blushed slightly, smiling awkwardly.Alan smiled nervously. "Wow, everyone decided to start early in 2012! Good morning, cousin."Caio avoided looking at Sofia. "Good morning, cousin. Do we have any updates regarding our annual meeting?""My dad appointed me president – again." Alan's cat-like grin indicated that he wasn't complaining. "And we'll have all the important people, just like last year."Caio's face g

2012.After the celebrations, Alan was standing in his office, talking to Josias on his cell phone. Rocha Constructions was relatively empty, but the heir was there early in the day, setting an example."Dad, I had an idea regarding Everaldo's prophecy."On the other side, at Rocha Mansion...Josias was still in bed, being cuddled and clung to by a persistent Melissa who was stroking her hand on her husband's fit and virile body."Erh... what did you think, SON?"Josias emphasized the 'son' to get Melissa to stop her mischief, but she giggled and continued to pinch some forbidden parts of her husband."I think Everaldo was warning us to be careful with Suzy Cogo," Alan replied seriously."Why?" Josias frowned."Because Sofia has been on alert with her since last year," Alan answered. "And she's the only investor I have in mind.""Son, Sofia needs to relax and stop causing trouble with other women." Josias tried to push Melissa away. "If not, I'll think she's jealous of her cousin.""O

There was now more food around, and everyone was conversing, sharing stories and reminiscing about moments from 2011.Felipe had arrived, bringing Suzy with him.“Suzy, come closer! Oh, where are your uncle and brother?” Diane asked kindly.“They didn’t feel worthy of attending,” Suzy replied humbly, also feeling out of place in the luxurious penthouse.Daryl shook his head. “Nonsense. Call them and tell them they are welcome.”“They’ll manage at Crystal Blue along with other hotel members.” Suzy sat down in the spot indicated by Kelvin.Felipe sat next to Suzy. “Well, dear. You already know they will be welcome next year.”Karen joked, “Maybe next year, Suzy will be completely integrated into the family.”Everyone laughed and applauded, leaving Suzy blushing but happy.Yes, that is what she wants – to
Chapter 3199 A Gift That Made William Sad
At the Rocha Mansion, Dora and Simeon were talking to William in a corner of the living room about Stacy Moreira, now Stacy Bento.“Son, do you still miss Stacy?” Simeon asked, surprised.“I don’t know, Dad.” William sighed, still holding the package. “I didn’t expect to receive a gift from her after all these years...”“Well, she seems to harbor no grudges. Neither she nor her husband,” Dora commented.“I don’t even know if I should open the gift. I’ll decide tomorrow.” William finally got up and placed the package under the tree.Simeon and Dora exchanged worried glances. Melissa approached them.“Dad, Mom, what happened?”“Sweetheart, Will received a gift from Stacy.” Simeon added ironically, “Do you remember her?”“I remember, unfortunately.” Melissa pouted. “Isn’t she happy and married to Igor in Victoria?”“Yes, but she decided to mess with my boy’s emotions.” D
