Building My Life Chapter 3173 Suzy Invests in Vaztrans
Rocha Hotel, late afternoon. Luís, reinstated in his job, was back at his old desk checking what he had missed. The door opened, and Eugenio appeared. “Comfortable, Luís? Good thing David didn’t change anything.” Luís frowned as he replied, staring at the computer, “He didn’t mess with the office, but he really messed things up here. There are tons of computer viruses coming from adult sites.” Eugenio blushed to the roots of his hair. “That bastard son of Josias must be his worst regret.” Eugenio closed the door before expressing what was stuck deep inside him. Luís smiled slightly, agreeing. “He’s downstairs, taking care of the receptionists and bellboys like old times.” Eugenio cleared his throat before continuing, “Luís, what do you intend to do regarding the front-page story in the newspaper?” “I need to handle a few matters first,” Luís replied in a dark tone. Eugenio grew more fearful. There was an aura of destruction around Luís that he had not known before. No one wou
Building My Life Chapter 3174 Embracing the Mission
At General Hospital, Luís had a long conversation with Dr. Matthew Hogan. Matthew was checking the X-rays of one of the patients who had been at the Lafayette Supermarket when the accident occurred.“A disastrous event, don’t you think, Mr. Vasquez?” Matthew asked, his back turned to the visitor. “Thank goodness it wasn’t one of your family’s buses.”Luís saw this as an opportunity to bring up the subject. “Dr. Hogan, can you tell me the circumstances under which you slept with my aunt?”Matthew let the X-ray sheets fall to the floor. He turned to face the visitor and saw him smiling mischievously.“You didn’t come here to consult with me.”“Not at all.” Luís leaned against the examination table. “I want answers.”“It’s not something I take pride in sharing.” Matthew shook his head somberly.“Don’t worry, doctor. I was also a victim of my own aunt’s lust.” Luís assured him with the same smile.Matthew, however, was left dumbfounded, too horrified to think clearly.“She really is a pro
Building My Life Chapter 3175 Will It Be Tonight
Josias notices how much the Vasquez family is bothered by João Paulo’s articles. “If you’d like, I can talk to him,” Josias promised in a calm tone. “But you must understand that Luís has become a well-known figure in town. I believe that ‘He’s back’ refers to him, not to the strange nickname.” Erasmo retorted, “Strange is putting it mildly, Josias! It was a crude and very suspicious nickname to have been created by a MAN!” Josias pursed his lips, trying not to get irritated with the outrageous comments. “Well, I didn’t come to ruin your celebration,” Josias stated, looking toward the exit. “I need to go. It’s good to know everything is in order here.” “We’re managing to pay off the loan,” Olivia hinted, unsure if that was what Josias wanted to discuss. “I’ll rely on Alan to check on that. See you soon!” Josias smiled charismatically and left. Olivia slammed the door shut, complaining, “Do you think he’ll talk to the youngest brother?” Erasmo calmed down, sitting at the desk.
Building My Life Chapter 3176 Making a Difference in the City
João Paulo had just finished rinsing the soap and shampoo from his hair when he felt an extra breeze. He turned around and, to his great shock, realized there was an audience watching him in the shower! “ARGH!” João Paulo closed the shower curtain, leaving only his head visible. Josias, laughing at the silliness between brothers, teased, “Usually, people have a tan line on their butt, but you’re completely bronzed, little brother! Have you been to a nude beach?” João Paulo neither confirmed nor denied it, wanting to change the subject. “What’s going on, Josias?” “Do you also want to play amnesia? Fine, I’ll give you clues to refresh your memory.” Josias stepped back, leaning against the sink. “It has to do with the photo of two people toasting at Crystal Blue.” João Paulo frowned, turning off the faucet. He reached out to grab the towel, but Josias was quicker and took the towel. João Paulo’s hand groped at nothing. “Hey, where’s the towel?” “First, answer me,” Josias provoke
Building My Life Chapter 3177 Two Thorny Conversations
Night fell in Lagoon City, more specifically, in Green Park. At Pizzeria Campos, the crowd was the same as always. Waiters served customers and pizzaiolos baked the ordered pizzas. Ambient music made the place more pleasant. William was not present. Simeon and Dora were helping, as always. Rosemary entered, finding Caio and Brigitte at one of the tables. “Hello, Rose,” Simeon greeted her. “How’s everything?” “Everything’s great, Mr. Simeon,” Rosemary smiled gently. “And how about you? Do you still have the energy to manage the pizzeria?” “We can’t come every day to help anymore,” Simeon joked. “But we come when we can or when Will needs us.” Rosemary looked around and noticed that William was not there. “Well, I want to talk to that couple over there.” “Go ahead. They ordered the house special pizza,” Simeon teased. Rosemary laughed and approached their table. “Good evening, lovely people!” “Good evening, sis,” Caio exclaimed happily upon seeing Rosemary. “Sit down! Look,
Building My Life Chapter 3178 A Pleasure Doing Business With You
Brigitte was questioned by Rosemary about Leo Borges’s behavior. “Um... Rose, you don’t need to worry. I know very well that Leonardo Borges is an ethical lawyer with his colleagues. And he wouldn’t be foolish enough to mess with the son of the owner of the largest law firm in Espírito Santo,” Brigitte replied. Rosemary sighed in relief, leaning back in her chair. The waiter brought the steaming pizza. It was a tempting sight. “This pizza is calling me...” Rosemary joked, getting up. “But I need to go.” “Stay, sis,” Caio insisted. “Or at least take some slices with you.” “Afraid of losing your toned belly?” Rosemary teased him, causing laughter from the Campos couple. “You can overcome that with a few sit-ups.” “Actually, sit-ups are more for strengthening the belly, not for losing weight,” Caio replied, as someone knowledgeable about fitness. Rosemary burst into laughter, but unable to resist any longer, she took two paper napkins and chose a slice of pizza. Waving goodbye w
Building My Life Chapter 3179 Tell a Convincing Story
The next day, Brendon opened the iron doors of Angel Store. Some employees were already waiting. “Good morning, everyone.” “Good morning, Mr. Souza!” “Oh, you are Mr. Souza?” One of the people, a sweet young woman around twenty, approached him. Brendon looked at the girl with dark blonde hair and a gentle smile. She was holding a brown envelope, probably a resume. “Yes, I am.” “Nice to meet you. I’m Sarah Paes, and I’m looking for a job.” Sarah extended the envelope. “Sarah, nice to meet you. Look, we are hiring salespeople, but we have someone specific to handle that – and she hasn’t arrived yet.” Sarah had a special sparkle in her eyes, indicating that she wasn’t just cute – she was determined. “I know, but it’s always good to go straight to the top, right?” Brendon smiled, pleased with her courage. He took the envelope. “From what I see, you’ve done some research about the store.” “Yes, I need to know where I’m likely going to work.” Sarah wisely used the word ‘likely.’
Building My Life Chapter 3180 Eagerly Job Hunting
At the Cardozo Store, the sight of customers coming in and out with purchases was pleasing to Diana and Karen. Especially after they discovered that Daryl’s plan had worked. They were chatting at the counter while no sales associate was nearby.“My husband is a genius. And we owe it to Will Campos as well,” Diane said proudly. “Yes, he was very helpful and a victim in this whole situation,” Karen reflected. “Just imagine what he must have gone through, feeling guilty for breaking Erasmo Vasquez’s ribs, only to find out it was all just lies!” “Now he’s going to sneak off to Spain while his daughter runs Vaztrans, along with my husband, Will, and Suzy Cogo,” Diane smiled triumphantly. “Let’s see if we’ll still hear about financial troubles after the management change,” Karen joked, causing both of them to laugh.In doing so, they didn’t notice Sarah approaching them. “Good morning. I came to leave my resume for the sales position.” Karen and Diane jumped slightly. As the manager,

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

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, “

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

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

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—”
