Building My Life Chapter 2603 Best Friends Join Forces
In the Teodoro Building, the party was moved from Beto’s apartment to the lobby. Passing tenants discover Rosemary back and greet her.It didn’t take long for Beto to turn the radio back on, and the song “Don’t Cha”, by The Pussycat Dolls, made the people dance and wiggle.Flávia brought a chicken pie to complement the cake while Teresa provided soft drinks for the children.In a corner of the lobby, Rosemary and Caroline were catching up.“Carol, in your letters, you expressed concern regarding your brother and Sofia. How was this story resolved until last year?”Caroline sighs, “Rose, those two are still getting married this year.”“And what do you think about that?” Rosemary asks her.“I think this is absurd! Nothing will take my mind off the fact that the Vasquez family just wants our money. They may be able to manage their company for now, but if one day they have a financial setback, you can be sure that Alan will be the fool to pay for their debts.”“It would be the most natura
Building My Life Chapter 2604 Josias and Thierry Form Partnership
At Rodrigo’s apartment, he and Nadia talk about what they can expect in the future.Nadia looks around, “The room you slept in could be your son’s room. He is the closest to ours.”“Yes, and we can install that baby monitor.” Rodrigo plans, “This way, we’ll hear his crying at dawn.”Nadia grimaces, “Urgh... This is the worst part. Waking up at dawn, being sleep deprived, giving bottles at three in the morning.”Rodrigo smiles naughtily, “We stayed up at three in the morning moaning and roaring with pleasure, making this baby. If we lost nights of sleep for pleasure, we can now lose nights of sleep for duty.”Nadia felt slapped by the Truth. “Ehr... You’re right, darling.”“Don’t worry, dear. I’ll share the tasks. I had a conversation with your father and I’ll probably have another with mine.” Rodrigo laughs.The doorbell rings. Nadia goes to answer, it’s Francisco.“Hello, Nadia. I came here to congratulate you. Isabel and Neilton are equally excited.”“Oh, Frank...” Nadia and Francis
Building My Life Chapter 2605 Some Retire, Others Are Promoted
In the next issue of Maggiezine, Rodrigo and Nadia graced the cover with the words in bold letters: ‘Another member of the Lafayette-Mountain family on the way!’Maggie was thrilled with the response to her magazine. Online access grew every moment. And her son Henrique showed a school trophy with pride.“Mom, where am I going to hang this trophy?” Henry asks.“We’ll leave it at home, on the bookshelf in the living room, for everyone to see.” Maggie smiled proudly.Adelaide enters her niece’s office, “Maggie... oh, Henrique was awarded.”“Hi, Aunt Addie!” Henrique boasts, “I won the school essay competition!”Adelaide stares at Maggie, “Hmm... That means the talent for writing runs in the family, huh? Do you intend to take over your father’s company?”“For sure. But my cousins Carol and Mary will take care of Maggiezine, yuck.” Henrique shakes himself. He doesn’t want to get involved with ‘women’s magazines’.Maggie and Adelaide burst into laughter. Henrique leaves to show the trophy

At Marçal Publishing, Bernardo kisses his champion son’s forehead. The trophy is on his desk, clearly visible for everyone to see.“My son, writing champion. I predict a bright future for you, Henrique.”“Thanks, Dad.” Henrique is excited. It seems like he is still assimilating the victory, “I’m glad you liked it.”“Of course. You’ll one day replace your old father and run this company, correct?” Bernardo gestures around his office.“You can bet on that!” Henrique hugs his father.Maggie enters the office and smiles at the familiar scene. “How beautiful to see father and son like this...”Henrique breaks the hug, “Mommy, did you come to tell Dad about Aunt Addie?”“What about ‘Aunt Addie’?” Bernardo asks curiously.Maggie takes the trophy, “Son, she’s waiting for you to leave with her. Remember, put the trophy on the shelf in the living room.”“OK. Bye, Dad!” Henrique kisses Bernardo’s cheek and leaves.Bernardo grins, “My puppy. And to think that your mother said he was Jack Motta’s

At Café Montanha, it seems that Isabel has some proposal to make to Adelaide and Amoreira.“What are you talking about, Mrs. Mountain?” Adelaide asks interested.“Mrs. Cardozo, would you allow me to make a storyline for my soap opera based on what you went through?”Adelaide and Amoreira’s eyes widen.“Why do you want to do this?” Adelaide is intrigued.“Because your life story has everything a good soap opera needs: drama, adventure, strong emotions! And most importantly: a happy ending.”“My husband was killed by a car and my sister fell from the balcony of a penthouse!”“For that reason: the villains were punished and the protagonist was rewarded with true love.” Isabel points to Amoreira.Amoreira is embarrassed, “Mrs. Mountain, I don’t know if we want our lives exposed on TV.”Isabel pulls up a chair and sits next to the couple, excited as a cosmetics saleswoman, “Hey, I’m not thinking about using your real names or casting actors who look like you! I’m just thinking about writin
Building My Life Chapter 2608 Reuben Follows the Protocols
At Isabel’s house, she is already at the computer feverishly typing the general outlook of the storyline she wants based on the dramatic experience of Adelaide and Ulysses. Afterward, she intends to bring together her junior writers to break down the plot into several episodes, among other preparations.Before that happens, Dora shows up at her house, “Is anyone home?”“Come in, Dora!” Isabel calls her.Dora finds her longtime friend typing intently, “Oh, but I’m going to disturb you like this...”Isabel stops typing, “Not exactly. How can I be of help, my friend?”“Melissa informed you?” Dora approaches the computer, “We’re throwing Nadia and Rod’s baby shower. Do you want to help us with that wonderful walnut cake that only you know how to make?”Isabel feels her stomach growl at the prospect of eating walnut cake, “Hmm... Sure, let me handle it. It’ll be a pleasure.”“I imagine Francisco is very excited. He will be a grandfather. What about Jack and Veronica?”Isabel shakes her hea
Building My Life Chapter 2609 Felipe Does Not Live Up to His Role
Octavio almost went deaf from his crazy wife’s scream.“Jane, keep your voice down. I’m in my office.”“And?” Jane cackled, “So I can speak in the desired tone!”“No, my helpers will listen to you!” Octavio reasons with her, “Why do you want me to talk to Josias?”“Elza doesn’t want to recommend me as a replacement!” Jane screams at the top of her lungs, “She’s thinking of other candidates to be the hotel’s next manager!”“And that’s what she’s supposed to do, it’s her prerogative.” Octavio explains patiently, “She can’t give the impression that you’re the favorite. It needs to be fair.”“Fair? Is there anyone more qualified than me?” Jane disdains the others.Octavio tsk with his tongue, “Honey, you took the promotion for granted just because we are friends with Josias. It’s not quite like that. Josias is my best friend, but I won’t take advantage of the bond for personal favors. I hope Elza isn’t picking up on your screams, or she’ll become even more convinced that you’re not qualif
Building My Life Chapter 2610 Olivia Will Burn the Sandwiches
In Jane’s office, she felt extremely offended by Elza’s question.“How absurd, woman! Is it so difficult to understand that I want to be your replacement? I didn’t think I needed to be more obvious, I was afraid of scaring you with my frankness!”Elza shakes her head, “I’m sorry, Jane. But I couldn’t just give you my position without figuring out if you’re ready. And remember: my son will have the final say.”“You can put in a good word of me to Josias.” Jane blinks.“He knows you’ve been my helper since the beginning.” Elza explains patiently, “But you’re still young, and you have Augusto to raise. What would happen if you got pregnant again?”“I won’t be, I swear!” Jane pleads, “And as for Augusto, well, he’s already big, he’s already going to school...”“I know. But when I started working as general manager of this hotel, the fact that João Paulo was already finishing high school and going to college made it easier for me. Don’t worry, Jane, it’s not decided yet. But if you don’t h

Chapter 3222 What Motivated Luís
Josias and William entered the latter’s office, while the former huffed and held back from punching someone. “Hey, hey, hey...” William closed the door before Josias decided to leave. “Don’t be mad about what Daryl said.” “I think I’m more outraged by the fact that he called João Paulo ‘half-brother.’” Josias clenched his fists and took a deep breath. “You know I hate that term, William!” “Yes, since the ‘80s.” William chuckled. “We’ve been on this life road for a long time, huh?” Josias calmed down and smiled slightly. “That’s true... you were a teenager, fifteen years old, now you’re forty-seven.” “And my son is married; soon I’ll have grandkids to spoil.” William sighed. “Josias, I don’t think I’ve ever thanked you enough for that.” “Thank me?” Josias gestured modestly, dismissing the idea. “Don’t be like that!” William insisted. “If it weren’t for you taking care of Caio, can you imagine what he would be today? Maybe he’d be in jail for getting involved with organized crime
Chapter 3221 Fights and Accusations
At Vaztrans, Daryl felt that Josias was eager to revive their rivalry through a misunderstanding. “Josias, what the hell are you doing here? Wanting to relive old times?” Josias raised his index finger, retorting fiercely, “You’re the one trying to stir up trouble with an interview like that!” “Wait a minute! I never intended to tarnish Suzy’s image! It was your mischievous and Machiavellian brother who was taking notes without letting me see.” Daryl frowned. William held his breath. Sofia smiled slightly but then became serious. “Well, dear father-in-law, you see that your brother decided to create this confusion on his own.” “What’s your opinion on this, Sofia?” Josias asked her. “I was totally in favor of giving at least a bonus to the employees here,” Sofia replied smartly after seeing Daryl encouraging her with a look. “But Suzy suddenly showed up saying that it would be impossible and reckless. Obviously, the workers who were listening became upset and started commenting
Chapter 3220 Chance for a Reply
Josias and William showed up at Vaztrans.The presence of the powerful Josias Rocha made the employees tremble. They all greeted him, bowing respectfully and avoiding direct contact. Josias’s dominant aura was almost suffocating.William led Josias straight to Erasmo’s office, now being used by Sofia.Sofia was happily working after having a good laugh with João Paulo’s article. William and Josias entered.“Good morning, everyone! Why do you look like you just came from a funeral?”Josias was surprised by the reception. “Aren’t you worried about the terrible repercussions my brother’s article is causing at Vaztrans?”William asked anxiously, “Have the employees already called for a strike?”Sofia, winking, stopped typing and stood up. “No. They’re eager for their bonuses.”Josias frowned, temporarily confused. “Wait, I thought Suzy had blocked any raises or bonuses for the employees.”Sofia defiantly lifted her chin. “But who does Suzy think she is? She doesn’t own the company. She’s
Chapter 3219 Would You Defend Your Wife Too?
At Café Montanha, Maggie approached Luís, standing. “Mr. Vasquez?”Luís suddenly looked in the direction of the voice, somewhat startled. “Ah, Mrs. Marçal... look, I don’t know if I’ll be able to answer any questions...”“Could you at least share your opinion on the possibility of me interviewing your friend?” Maggie asked shrewdly, her journalistic instincts always sharp.Luís liked the word ‘friend’ and calmed down a bit. Neilton brought the black coffee.“We don’t have .22 caliber bullets.” Neilton joked and hurriedly walked away.Luís took a few sips of coffee and turned to Maggie. “You want to interview Suzy so she can present her side?”“That’s right!” Maggie’s eyes sparkled. “I was thinking about that possibility. After all, she won’t have the right to respond in João Paulo’s column.”“If he wants war, let’s have it!” Luís smiled mischievously.“So do I have your permission?” Maggie raised her eyebrows.“You have more than that.” Luís straightened up. “I’ll talk to Suzy myself
Chapter 3218 What It’s Really About
At Eugenio’s apartment, he opened the door for Felipe. Suzy’s boyfriend found her a bundle of nerves, sitting on the sofa as if she were in some withdrawal crisis. “DEAR!” Felipe rushed to the sofa, sat down, and hugged her tightly. “What have they done to you...” “A tragedy, Felipe.” Eugenio sighed. “They just won’t leave my niece alone.” “Well, there’s a simple word to solve this: LAWSUIT!” Felipe shouted, but his loud voice didn’t bother Suzy. “Jake left here saying João Paulo is in love with her. Does that make sense?” Eugenio scratched his neck. Felipe’s eyes were on fire. “Maybe. That big horse has too much virility, and having just one wife isn’t enough. He needs to relieve himself with other bitches — but not my Suzy!” Felipe’s protective demeanor calmed Suzy down. Not all men are worthless — there are those who are good for dating and marrying. Eugenio realized that. “Look, she’s getting better. Suzy, do you want to go down and have breakfast at Café Montanha?” Only
Chapter 3217 New Bombshell
João Paulo’s article in the next issue of LCN, both printed and online, was as follows: “Even with Vaztrans turning a profit in annual revenue, Suzy Cogo refuses to give her employees a raise!” Suzy flipped the breakfast table and was screaming like a possessed person. Eugenio froze in his chair, watching the table and all the breakfast spilled on the floor. Jake came out of the bathroom still with shaving foam on his right cheek and without a shirt. “What’s going on here?” Jake shouted. “He did it again, HE DID IT AGAIN!” Suzy was jumping and stomping, looking like she was skipping rope, but she wanted to stomp on the newspaper on João Paulo’s column page. Jake pushed Suzy aside and grabbed the newspaper. Despite her footprints, he managed to see the news. The published photo of Suzy did not do her beauty justice, as if the photographer had been hiding and took the picture without her knowing. “He’s in love with you, sis.” Jake crumpled the newspaper with both hands. “That’s t
Chapter 3216 Is Suzy the Enemy?
At the Borges family home, Leonardo was chatting with his father during a break from work. Renan raised his eyebrows as Leonardo recounted what Reynaldo had discovered. “A girl whose parents worked for Josias in the ‘80s?” “Yes, and she insisted on introducing herself by her full name as if she took great pride in it: Sarah Paes.” Renan’s eyes lit up. “It can’t be possible. There was one of the henchmen, my old boss’s right-hand man... Ernesto Paes. After Josias killed him, Ernesto switched sides and became the butler... when I tried to take down Josias, I think he was already married...” “So there’s no doubt, Dad.” Leonardo was excited. “She’s the daughter of that traitor.” “And she’s been in contact with Josias, it seems.” Renan smiled, rubbing his hands together. “We need to find a way to get close to her.” “The guys at the café might have information for us.” Leonardo sat down on the couch. “Alright, I’ll leave this in your hands, or Reynaldo’s, since he’s the one who hear

Melissa dropped by the Cardozo Perfumes office.She found Sarah working with a bright smile. “Good morning, Sarah. So, enjoying being back in Lagoon City?”“Oh, I couldn’t be happier, Mrs. Rocha!” Sarah replied excitedly. “Everyone here knows you, and they’re so friendly!”“Yeah, but be careful; not everyone is like that,” Melissa began to worry.“My parents warned me, especially about David Souza.” Sarah became alert. “He... there was news on the Internet that he’s in jail...”Melissa smiled mockingly. “Sad ending for someone who insists on being a pain in the neck, don’t you agree?”“Oh, yes, I agree...” Sarah quickly nodded. Something inside her told her to agree if she didn’t want to get into trouble.Kelvin approached them. “Good morning, madames!”“Kelvin, I need to talk to you.” Melissa turned to him.“Let’s go to my office. Sarah, hold the calls or forward them to my wife.”“Yes, Mr. Mountain.”Kelvin and Melissa went to his office.Inside, Melissa asked, “Is Sarah doing well?
Chapter 3214 Something from the Past to Use in the Future
Daryl met with Sofia, Suzy, and William in Sofia’s office. Sofia was still smiling and occasionally shot ironic glances at Suzy.“Guys, João Paulo wants to interview Vaztrans, just as I predicted,” Daryl announced. “As we can see, this company’s good performance has not gone unnoticed by the general public.”“Oh, damn...” Suzy muttered under her breath.“Why are you complaining, Suzy?” Sofia asked provocatively.“We have a bad history with that guy,” Suzy said louder. “Can’t we ask another journalist to come here?”“Knowing João Paulo, he’ll come,” William replied, also a bit apprehensive. “Which one of us is going to answer his questions?”Daryl shrugged. “Looks like I’m the only one who’s not on bad terms with him, right?”“Be careful, Daryl. João Paulo is more treacherous than his late father,” Sofia grumbled.Suzy decided to counterattack, “This is all because of the ‘Spanish Stallion’? Get over it, dear. Don’t go catatonic like your mother.”Sofia shot Suzy a furious look and did
