At Rocha Constructions, Josias and Ulysses meet for the first time. Both gentlemen, dressed in Italian-cut suits, approach and shake hands.“Hello, Mr. Rocha. It’s a pleasure to finally meet you. My nephew talks a lot about you.”“Kelvin?” Josias smiles, trying to be friendly.“Him too. But I’ve been talking to Daryl these past few weeks.” Ulysses responds with confidence and a firm voice.Josias gestures to the drinks table. “Do you want anything?”“No, it’s still too early for me to drink anything, but thanks.” Ulysses goes to the couch, “Mr. Rocha, what do you want to talk to me about?”“Before my wife spoke about you, I didn’t know that you and your wife were spending time in the city.” Josias admits, “And with the tragedy of Shirley’s death, Melissa became interested.”“I saw her at the funeral.” Ulysses lowers his head, “I hope I don’t offend you, Mr. Rocha. But I found your wife’s presence in bad taste. And now she’s encouraging Kelvin the idea that my sister-in-law didn’t comm

Their radio is playing “Luxurious” by Gwen Stefani.“Hey, my dear.” Beto puts a pot of pasta in ground meat sauce for Maycon and Pedro. “How was the conversation with Diane?”“Was Diane Mountain here?” Pedro frowns.“Be patient, Pete.” Teresa approaches, still digesting the information, “The conversation was good. I’m going to take a shower before dinner.”“Eat properly,” Beto advises his children and goes after Teresa, feeling that she wants to say something else.In their room, Teresa is in front of the wardrobe choosing clean clothes. Beto enters and worries about her.“Honey, you can tell me. What truly happened? Is the Mountain family in trouble again?”“They always have been, haven’t they?” Teresa smiles yellow. “Honey, I promised to keep it a secret, so I ask for your discretion. Maybe Diane will need our help if she decides to confess.”“Confess what?” Beto prepares for the bomb.“She knows who blew

I hope they have fun.”Caroline feigns interest to Alan, “Bro, will you want the same destination when it’s your turn?”Alan smiles, “Thanks for asking, sis. We’re discussing whether we want Europe or some Caribbean island.”Josias snaps his fingers, “If you guys want something more beachy and tropical, Alan, you can travel on the yacht I plan to buy.”Everyone is amazed at the increasingly tangible possibility of Josias purchasing a yacht.Melissa grins, “Honey, do you really want to buy a yacht?”“Yes, my dear.” Josias straightens up, “A lot of successful businessmen have one. Tobias opened the marina here in Sunset Village. We can hire someone to always take care of it. What do you think?”Caroline is excited. “When I think we already have eve
Building My Life Chapter 2571 Have You Considered Divorce?
Diane gets up, feeling dizzy and sick. She looks like she’s going to vomit or pass out...“No, I don’t believe they’re both keeping any more secrets from me... What kind of marriage can resist that?”Kelvin is startled, “Sister-in-law, I hope this isn’t a threat of divorce. I’ve had enough of being divorced!”Diane turns to him, “Your situation was completely different than mine. I’m married to a husband who has done horrible things and who doesn’t trust me enough to do so.”Bernardo opines, “Maybe Daryl kept his mouth shut because he knows you would disagree with him and tell someone.”Diane swallows hard. She remembered the conversation she had with Teresa.But she decides to focus on Adelaide, “Aunt Addie said she got into a fight with Shirley and Shirley started strangling her. Someone said something about finger marks on Aunt Addie’s neck, but it wasn’t mentioned in the coroner’s final report. How strange...”“When Daryl and Ulysses stepped in to say categorically that it was sui

I love him!”“But it’s clear as water to me that HE doesn’t love you, Diane.” Beto goes behind the counter, turning on the computer, “What else has he been hiding from you?”“Did you tell Josias anything of what we discussed?” Teresa asks first.Diane shakes her head in distress, “No, and now I’m more scared about the fact that there’s more to this web of intrigue. Josias is going to get in trouble if I spill it all at once.”“If we are worthy of your trust...” Beto suggests.Diane looks around and takes advantage of the fact that no one is passing by. “OK. I found out that Shirley didn’t die by suicide. She was accidentally pushed by her little sister because she was being strangled and wanted to break free.”“Oh my God!” Te
Building My Life Chapter 2573 Erasmo Doesn’t Make a Scandal
At Vaztrans, Olivia is almost dying in panic because Erasmo took a photo she received anonymously.But Erasmo does not seem to have the desire to call Olivia an adulteress or to strangle her to death. He just looks at the photo and returns it to his wife. “What’s the big deal about this photo?”Olivia swallows hard and calms down, “Someone sent me anonymously to blackmail me.”Erasmo shakes his head nonchalantly, “Bullshit. In this photo, you’re entering that horny model’s dressing room. If the blackmailer is trying to attribute immorality, he is wasting his time.”“What if he publishes it in Maggiezine?” Olivia takes advantage of Erasmo not getting angry.Erasmo hugs his wife to calm her, “Calm down, dear. None of that will happen. If you pay the blackmailer a few cents, he will come back demanding more. Let’s call his bluff.”Olivia is relieved to see that she managed to outwit Erasmo, “Oh, dear, thank you so much!”Olivia takes the pieces of the cell phone and goes to her desk, try
Building My Life Chapter 2574 Diane Can’t Take It Anymore
The next day, at the Mountain Penthouse, the family gathered for breakfast could attend a funeral, such was the silence at the table. It seems like everyone is eating Styrofoam with feces.Felipe decides to break the awkward silence, “The cheese is stretching like Will Campos’ pizzas.”“Please, son, don’t talk to me about that crippled idiot!” Daryl exclaims angrily.Diane is outraged, “But why do you need to verbally attack our son?”“I just want to eat in peace, without hearing about our enemies,” Daryl responds with a frown.“I think you better open up to us, darling.” Diane leans forward.Felipe notices that his mother has a different look in her eyes, “Is there a problem, mom?”“We’re just having a slight communication problem, son.”“Well then, I’d better retreat—”“No, son, stay!” Diane gestures, “I want you to stay because it concerns you too.”“ME?” Felipe’s eyes widen.Daryl shakes his head, “What are you talking about, woman?”Diane takes a deep breath and finally releases

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
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
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—”
