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

Building My Life Chapter 2570 The Truth Like a Snowball

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
Building My Life Chapter 2575 A New Chance for Thierry
At the Mountain Penthouse, Diane is heading to the living room. She turns on the radio and the song “Shut Up!” by Simple Plan echoes through the place.Felipe and Daryl catch up to her.“Terrible song choice, Mom. We need to talk even more, not be silent.”“O really?” Diane turns to him, furious, “So what stopped you from communicating with me?”Daryl is outraged, “Honey, you didn’t even ask me if that was true or a lie. You automatically concluded that we’re responsible for the explosion!”“I said it was Ulysses Cardozo, your damned uncle!” Diane screams. “I heard the conversation between you guys. And I was here when he said, in this living room, that he would help you, Daryl. But why? Why did it have to be something so... flashy and obvious?”“It’s not that obvious.” Daryl crosses his arms, “Until now, the police have never suspected me and never discovered Uncle Ulysses’ involvement.”“OK, but what about that guy, Diego Zenith? What happened to him? Was he ‘erased’ like a file bur

Chapter 3237 Mary’s Quinceañera (1)
That evening, the Rocha Events Hall was elegantly lit, and the soft sound of a waltz floated through the air.It was a joint celebration for Ignacio and Mary Campos Mountain.

Her dance partner, a close friend of sixteen, guided her with surprising poise.Around them, seven other couples glided across the floor, including Ignacio, who partnered with a girl from a well-known family. Henrique, as the cousin of the twins, also had his partner following the waltz.From the sidelines, Kelvin and Karen watched the scene with quiet pride, while Melissa and Josias — especially Melissa, mother of the birthday twins — took in the moment with emotion.“Look at your daughter,” Josias whispe
Chapter 3236 Support Your Wife
In the Mountain Penthouse living room, the atmosphere was far from serene. The heated discussion between Suzy and her boyfriend’s family showed no sign of calming down.“I can’t believe this!” Suzy exclaimed, her voice tight with indignation. “You all actually think I’m in love with Luís Vasquez!”Karen raised an eyebrow, her tone biting. “You’re not?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Suzy barked back. “I’m in love with Felipe — I love him!”Kelvin, unmoved, folded his arms. “Just not as much as you love your money and your... ‘investments.’”Diane lifted a hand, hoping to bring reason to the conversation. “Suzy, I’ve turned a deaf ear to all the gossip about you. I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane... I don’t know why Felipe insists on believing the lies João Paulo QUEIRÓS keeps spinning!”Daryl’s expression darkened. “So the problem lies with the journalist, then. Looks like I’ll have to deal with
Chapter 3235 I Don’t Want Cursed Money
The Mountain Penthouse living room was filled with tension that morning. Everyone was taken aback as the truth behind the fight that had sent Felipe to the hospital came to light.“Well, if that’s how it is...” Daryl began, clearly processing the news.Diane, urgent to defend her son, jumped in. “But wait, why exactly did Felipe and Luís decide to fight?”Suzy’s lips curled into a sly smile. It was time to drop the bomb.“According to my uncle Eugenio,” she began, “Felipe barged into his office and announced that he wanted to break up with me — because my uncle was happy about me being featured on the cover of Maggiezine.”Everyone looked even more stunned.“Wait, what does that have to do with anything?” Kelvin asked, frowning.Suzy explained, “Felipe saw my uncle thanking Luís for sort of encouraging me to accept the interview with Maggie.”Daryl exhaled sharply. “So my son just had a jealous outburst. That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you
Chapter 3234 The Girlfriend Showed Up
At the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin and Daryl were relieved that everything had turned out okay. Diane and Karen were nearby, on the sofas, chatting cheerfully. “God was merciful and allowed our son to live a few more years,” Diane declared. “Now, you both need to rest,” Karen patted Kelvin’s chest. “We slept beautifully while you two were in that sterile lounge.” Kelvin yawned once more. “I think I’ll take my dear wife’s advice; what do you think, Daryl?” “Who said we own the place?” Daryl yawned as well. The ladies laughed at their funny husbands. The doorbell rang. Tony passed through the living room, offering, “I’ll get it.” When Tony opened the door, he was surprised by the visitor. “Miss Cogo?” “How funny, you don’t call me by my first name. Did Felipe manage to talk to you before the coma?” Suzy asked bitterly, without smiling. Tony reacted perplexed by this torrent of unfriendly words. “Uh... Come in, please.” Suzy entered, ready for the storm. “Who is it, big brothe
Chapter 3233 A Surprising Report
The next day, Matthew Hogan entered the General Hospital lounge and found Daryl and Kelvin incredibly exhausted but hopeful. “Doctor, how did it go?” Daryl nearly jumped on Matthew. “Calm down, the patient survived the surgery. It’s just a matter of time before he’s back in his room.” “Oh, thank God!” Kelvin cheered. Daryl couldn’t resist and hugged Matthew. “Thank you so much, doctor!” Matthew smiled, somewhat awkwardly, but aware that it was a common reaction. “You’re welcome, we did everything we could.” “Yeah, I understand.” Daryl released the hug, rubbing his eyes — whether from sleep or wiping away a tear. “It’s going to take a little while. I suggest you both go home and rest a bit,” Matthew said. “I think we’ll do just that,” Kelvin yawned. “Now that the danger has passed, I think I deserve it. Doctor, let us know if anything happens,” Daryl requested, patting the doctor’s shoulder. “I’ll do. And congratulations to you both.” Matthew left the lounge. Kelvin yawned a
Chapter 3232 The Detective I Trust
At the Rocha Hotel, Eugenio and Jake are talking to Suzy about what is happening. Jake was upset. “Suzy, haven’t you gone to visit your boyfriend yet?” “I don’t know if it’s a good idea to show up there right now.” Suzy lowered her head. “The fight happened... here?” Eugenio responded indignantly, “Yes, in my beloved living room. Luís lost his temper when Felipe called him ‘Spanish Stallion.’“ Suzy lifted her head, completely changing her posture. “WHAT? Well, then, the beating didn’t come out of nowhere!” “Come on, sis, don’t go along with this,” Jake advised her. “They’re saying Felipe’s condition is serious.” “Serious is Luís getting teased every single day by the nickname he despises the most!” Suzy exclaimed. Eugenio decided to tell the whole story, “Suzy, there’s a lot more you don’t know.” “Tell me, uncle!” “Felipe, before being assaulted, said he wouldn’t continue dating you, claiming that the Cogo family would always prefer Luís.” Suzy reacted, paralyzed by this inf

Rodrigo and Nadia entered the General Hospital lounge, finding Karen and Diane. “We’re here! Where’s Daryl?” Nadia approached the couch. “He went to check with Kelvin for more information,” Diane sniffed. “Thanks for coming.” “We wouldn’t be family if we didn’t show up,” Nadia sat down near them. “And I’m a mother too.” Rodrigo poured himself some coffee. “Any news?” Diane took a deep breath. “Felipe is still awake. Dr. Hogan said the tests revealed a concussion, and they’re now deciding if surgery will be necessary.” “How horrible.” Nadia shuddered. “Well, whether surgery is necessary or not, I hope everything goes well for Felipe.” “Now, I find it strange that Suzy still hasn’t shown up!” Karen frowned. “Did you see her outside?” “No. We thought she was inside or with Daryl,” Nadia replied honestly. Diane shook her head. “No, guys, I can’t believe Suzy would choose to work or handle investments instead of checking on her boyfriend!” Rodrigo took a sip – the coffee wasn’t a
Chapter 3230 The Lady of Lagoon City Makes a Powerful Speech
At Vaztrans, William swallowed hard before answering Sofia’s question.“Sofia, your cousin really went too far this time,” he began cautiously.“What do you mean?” Sofia narrowed her eyes. “I know Luís can be a bit difficult, but—”“Yes, the hot Spanish blood speaks louder sometimes, right?” William took a deep breath. “Luís assaulted Felipe. Daryl rushed to the hospital.”Sofia reacted with her mouth open, holding her breath.Then she composed herself. “How could he do such a thing?”“Do you want to hear my guess?” William asked with a sly smile.“No! It can’t be because of Suzy Cogo!” Sofia ran her hands through her hair as if to pull it out.“It seems we were wrong to have accepted her partnership, huh?” William shook his head.“If she starts to tarnish Vaztrans’ reputation...” Sofia paced around the office. “First, her statement: her reluctance to raise the salary of the employees here. Now, this love triangle that I thought was over...”“Everaldo warned us to be careful with her,”
Chapter 3229 Despair at the General Hospital
At Vaztrans, William and Daryl were discussing the repercussions of Suzy’s article in Maggiezine.“People are accepting Suzy’s apologies and explanations,” William broke the silence, holding a copy.Daryl pursed his lips. “Whatever. Sometimes I think João Paulo is lurking, ready to pounce on anything to throw us into confusion.”“But the salary bonus we promised will be paid, right?” William smirked.“Of course, what choice do we have?” Daryl pointed to the magazine. “She made it clear in the interview. We’re not going to contradict her, are we?”William laughed ironically. “It seems Suzy is going to be the kind of person who does anything to get out of trouble, even if it means contradicting herself.”Daryl’s cell phone rang, and he answered, seeing it was Diane. “My dear is calling. Hello, Di?”Diane was at the hospital entrance, trying to be strong. “Hello, Daryl. We need you at the hospital.”“What happened?” Daryl’s eyes widened.“Luís Vasquez beat our son to a pulp, as they say,
