Building My Life 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
Building My Life 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
Building My Life 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
Building My Life 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
Building My Life 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
Building My Life Chapter 3223 Henrique Is Eighteen Years Old
Suzy talks to Maggie about the article she wants to write for Maggiezine.Alone in her office, Suzy took the opportunity to express her opinion, “Maggie, you should be congratulated for Henrique.”“What’s up with my baby?” Maggie raised her eyebrows.“BABY?” Suzy laughed heartily. “Come on, girl! Your son is all grown up, sporting a beard! Your husband said that while I watched him serve coffee to me. Is he going to inherit Marçal Publishing Company?”Maggie smiled like every proud mother. “Yes, he is. And you’re right. No matter how much I still see my son as a baby, he’s eighteen now, reaching legal age. We have many plans for him...”Suzy was surprised. Henrique is already eighteen?“Well, let’s get to the main topic.” Suzy shook her head. “Can you save a page where I can tell some truths to that crowd that hates me?”Maggie smiled mischievously. “I might even give you a cover article, my dear!”“I would appreciate that opportunity. We’re at war, Maggie. I need to clear my name.” S
Building My Life Chapter 3224 João Paulo Promised to Be Different
Melissa appeared in João Paulo’s office. The journalist and brother-in-law was surprised by her visit.“Melissa! Hello, so good to see you!”“João Paulo, we need to talk urgently.” Melissa closed the door.“I see.” João Paulo’s smile faded. “Josias sent you to scold me.”“Believe me, Josias is trying his best not to come here and give you a few slaps.” Melissa approached his desk.“Why would he bother? I’m fine.” João Paulo placed his hands behind his neck.“No, you’re reigniting a war that you won’t be able to handle.” Melissa warned him lovingly. “Josias won’t protect you if Suzy Cogo asks for compensation again.”“That girl wants to get rich at my expense?” João Paulo scoffed.“No. You’re the one giving her the chance. Stop these articles, João Paulo, and she will leave you alone.”João Paulo grew more serious. “She and her boyfriend came here, insulted me, I was slapped, and insulted my wife. With my father’s death, I couldn’t take my revenge.”“But you’re back, with the chance to
Building My Life Chapter 3225 Counterattack Effect
In the next issue of ‘Maggiezine,’ Suzy Cogo was the big sensation, gracing the cover with a smiling, confident photo, hands on her hips, and a stance that suggested she was ready for battle. The article attracted the attention of thousands, with sales and online access tripling in spreadsheets and counters sales. Whereas Suzy had previously reacted with fury and rage, now she danced in the kitchen without knocking over the table or breakfast. Jake improvised dance steps with his sister while Eugenio read the article with exaggerated pride. “‘Therefore, it was never my intention to imply that I don’t care about my employees’ salaries. I support administrative discussions to check if Vaztrans has the appropriate funds to fulfill our promises.’ Wow, niece, with that one sentence, you dismantled the whole narrative!” “Didn’t I tell you, uncle? The journalist was very competent.” Jake remarked, “He used his fingers to do good, unlike that other guy.” Eugenio closed the magazine and

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, “

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
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—”
