Building My Life Chapter 2549 The First Meeting
In the back of Crystal Blue, Daryl has the biggest revelation in his family’s history, something horrifying, controversial, and obscene. His head is spinning and his hands are shaking.“I... I don’t know what to say...”“Daryl, it’s not that hard to understand.” Octavio continues in a dark and icy tone, “Your mother was living in a luxury room at the Rocha Hotel for weeks. Have you ever wondered how much money she used to pay her daily rate? My wife Jane said she never missed a day of payment.”Daryl puts his hand on his glabella, “She never responded to me properly.”“Well, now you tell me about this uncle Ulysses... Who exactly is he?”“If your wife bought any perfume from the brand ‘Cardozo’, it’s from my uncles. They are the owners.” Daryl faces his enemy.“OK, so we’ve cracked this part. Your mother lived in the hotel because her uncle paid for it. These photos were probably taken in the suite, and it’s obvious that someone was investigating.”Daryl’s voice shakes, “Investigating
Building My Life Chapter 2550 Daryl Is Manipulated
Daryl enters Crystal Blue’s office and kicks the desk, venting his anger.“DAMN IT! Why did you have to be so promiscuous, Mom? Why did you always accuse Maggie of being what you are? ‘Accuse him of what you do,’ that’s the motto, huh?”The door opens and Felipe enters, “Dad, why are you shouting? It seems like I heard your voice in the alley.”Daryl looks at Felipe impatiently. No, this time he won’t know that...“I was arguing with Octavio Motta. Don’t mind, son.”“It seems like you mentioned Grandma Shirley...” Felipe is confused.“Son, be careful when you talk to yourself.” Daryl leans over to the computer and turns it on, “Someone might hear you.”“Dad, what’s going on? Is this just mourning and grief over your mother’s death?”“FELIPE, please don’t ask me questions I can’t answer!” Daryl barks.Felipe doesn’t give up. He’s that annoying character who makes us have high blood pressure.“Dad, please talk to me! I know I’m not a Mountain of real blood, but I care about family! I di
Building My Life Chapter 2551 Dinners and Celebrations
At the police station, Josias is a little uncomfortable when he meets Kelvin after so many years. Amoreira, however, does not feel the strange atmosphere.“Mr. Mountain, hello! I’m glad you came as agreed.”“As agreed?” Josias raises an eyebrow.Kelvin smirks, “Yes, Josias. I’m spending time here, if you don’t mind.”“Of course—” Josias decides not to be rude, “If you need Hilton Amoreira’s services, who am I to say anything...?”“You’re just the owner of the city.” Kelvin responds, “But I’m employing Amoreira’s services to find out what really happened to my mother.”Josias is surprised, “Your uncle and Daryl are convinced that it was suicide.”Kelvin shakes his head, “No, I won’t accept a verdict like that. And Amoreira will seek the truth that will set us free.”Amoreira chirps, “At your service, Mr. Mountain.”“Then I better leave.” Josias greets the gentlemen with a nod.After he leaves, Amoreira closes the door, “Sit down, Mr. Mountain. Where do you want me to start?”Kelvin sit
Building My Life Chapter 2552 When are they going to tell Josias?
Daryl returns to the penthouse, tired after another exhausting day of work. Will it always be like this? Will he ever regain the glory of the 90s?“And it all started...” Daryl says to himself, “When I wanted to help Josias get rid of that troublemaker, Katherine Bezerra... My only consolation is that she is now missing at sea.”Diane approaches him smiling and wearing an apron, “Honey, good news! Tomorrow the locksmith will come to repair the balcony railing, removing the glass and installing iron bars. Now let’s feel safe and free ourselves from the guilt.”“Honey, my mother’s death was never your fault or mine, much less Felipe’s. Don’t allow people to say otherwise, or we’ll never get rid of the mockery.”Diane shrugs, “If you really want to know, I don’t care what people say. It’s just that I felt responsible for allowing the glass railing all these years.”“Well, you don’t have to feel that way anymore.” Daryl sits down in the armchair and takes off his shoes.“Is there a proble
Building My Life Chapter 2553 We Don’t Know About Anyone Else
At Rocha Constructions, Josias is very focused on the Guarapari project. He is standing, calling one of the cement suppliers.“Look, I received the report from the head of Engineering, and I can say that I wasn’t satisfied with what I read. You urgently need to improve the quality because I don’t want the building to collapse with the residents still inside! Can you imagine what a scandal that would be? Your name would go down in the mud with me.”The door opens and Reuben appears with Daryl.“I told you he’s busy,” Reuben speaks quietly.Daryl replies in the same tone, “Believe me, boy. He’ll listen to me.”Reuben gives up and closes the door. Daryl takes a deep breath. Is today...Josias sees Daryl and ends the call, “OK, contact Mr. Alfred Paterson and agree on the best solution. I’m counting on you, bye!” He turns to Daryl, “What a surprise!”Daryl approaches cautiously, “You’re going to lose that smile when you hear what I have to say, Josias.”“What are you talking about? There’
Building My Life Chapter 2554 They Didn’t Want to Wait
At Rocha Constructions, Josias talks to Octavio in his office. All around, architects draw their plans on their computers, very focused. One of them is almost burying his face in the monitor, trying to see.Josias jokes about this, “I think one of your architects needs glasses, Octavio.”“Oh, Denis always does that. I’ll give him the tip later.” Octavio chuckles.Alfred asks, “Josias, were you able to talk to that cement factory that I dare not name?”“Don’t worry, Alfred. You’ll be getting a call from them any moment.”Alfred scratches the back of his head, “I know we’re responsible for these matters, Josias, but it seems that some only take us seriously after they are reprimanded by you. You probably said the same thing as me, but with you, they understand. With us, we’re accused of being too demanding.”“I know you are capable guys and have done everything.” Josias doesn’t let his friends feel inferior.“It’s comforting to hear you like that, Josias. Another boss from another compa
Building My Life Chapter 2555 I Solved the Problem
At Vernon’s office at LCN, he finishes speaking to the person on the phone. João Paulo waits.“So, Dad? Are you going to keep me waiting?”“Oh, son, I’m sorry.” Vernon scratches the back of his head, “I think the information is too fantastic!”“What it was? Who called?”“Anonymous caller, obviously.” Vernon shakes his head, sitting down, “One person, muffling his voice, said that the person who blew up the kitchen at the Rocha Hotel was Ulysses Cardozo.”“Never heard of this guy.” João Paulo frowns.“Well, that’s what the Internet is for these days.” Vernon smiles and starts typing.João Paulo goes around the desk to follow his father’s research. On the screen, photos of several Ulysses dudes appear.João Paulo points to one of them, “What about this guy? Ulysses Cardozo, president of the perfume company, residing in Linhares... and his wife, Adelaide Cardozo.”“Isn’t Shirley Mountain’s sister hospitalized with traumatic shock?” Vernon is amazed, “What does her husband have to do with
Building My Life Chapter 2556 João Paulo Confirms Facts
At night, the doorbell rings at the Mountain Penthouse. Felipe, shirtless and in sweatpants, goes to answer, “I’ll open the door!”Daryl comes from the balcony after resting and admiring the night view of the city, “Who would it be at this hour? Maggie?”Felipe opens the door and is surprised by João Paulo, “Mr. Queiroz?”“We need to talk! Is your father there?” João Paulo asks fiercely.“He is. But please lower your voice. We don’t want any confusion.” Felipe lets João Paulo pass.Daryl approaches, “Did I hear my sacred name?”João Paulo continues with a frown, “Daryl, we’re investigating the explosion at the Rocha Hotel that killed my baby.”Daryl smirks, “Look, I don’t know whether to convey my condolences or scold you for getting your daughter’s nanny pregnant! Dude, haven’t you learned your lesson? Are you going to forever have children out of wedlock?”“I’m marrying Helen and you are NOT invited!” João Paulo yells, “Can we stick to the matter?”“What do you wanna know?” Daryl cr

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—”
