2021-05-31 19:15:47Admired by Josias's decent and civilized stance, Teodoro congratulates him. “Very well, Josias Rocha! I see that you acted with principles. I would say that your father would be very proud of you, but it looks like he didn't teach you that.”
"No, he didn't teach me." Josias confirms, "My mother taught me something about ethics and citizenship before she got divorced and disappeared from the city."
“Anyway, once the subject of the bar has ended in a happy ending,” Teodoro rubs his hands, “we will continue to deal with the first subject. Young Rocha, you spoke as if you had lost Melissa. Aren't you going to ask her father for permission?”
"I went to the football field to look for him, but I found Pamela first." Josias is crestfallen and shoulders slumped.
“Pamela? Did she tell you?” Teodoro frowns, "Isn't she the one you suspected of slandering you to Mr. Campos?"
“Yes, but nothing has been proven

William gets a fright as if he were not the reason for his mother's fright.“Calm down, mom, what is this astonishment for?”“What happened to you, my little boy? Did you fall, were you mugged?” Dora approaches her son with great concern.Simeão, however, smiles maliciously. “It's the fans, dear. William is very skilled, scoring a lot of goals, a performance worthy of a professional player.”“And that is why they tear up his clothes and chase my son?” Dora does not want to hear about young girls chasing after her son. She turns to William and looks at him, almost menacingly. “Son, remember one thing: Mom wants you to finish high school and fight to fulfill your dream, to be a football player. Don't get distracted by these bitches, don't get any girl pregnant, because that will ruin everything, understand?”“Yes, mother, I understand,” William speaks obediently and submis

Friday. Uélton and Josias talk about what happened yesterday.“Jeez, where does this Fabrício come from when you least expect it?” Uélton asks with a frown.“It looks like someone let him know when he must show up. The worst is that this is becoming dangerous.” Josias shakes his head in denial, “She has already accepted a gift, that is, she has already opened the door to a possible friendship.”“As long as she stays just in friendship, and date with you...” Uélton tries to add.“No way, buddy.” Josias enters the bathroom to finish the tiling job, “If Melissa is my girlfriend I will be her friend. Without space for others, this is how it will be.”Romualdo approaches the two with money in hand.“Ah, you are here, so let me take advantage.” Romualdo enters the bathroom and separates the notes.Uélton and Josias each rec

As in the movies and soap operas, this time no cars or pedestrians are passing on the avenue to help Pamela. She runs and screams like a possessed, but Fabrício is faster and grabs her around the waist.“NO! Let me go, you bastard!” Pamela screams at the top of her lungs.“Schiii!” Fabrício orders in her ear, “Do you mean that the best friend is keeping an eye on her younger brother, seducing the minor?”“I am too, damn it!”“But, he's younger, and he's Melissa's brother! Come on, Pamela, you're on fire for Josias and him, but you're not for me?”“Get your paws off me, let me go! Or I tell Melissa everything, and the plan is over!”Fabrício smiles wickedly, somewhat devilishly. “If you tell her, I'll tell her next that you're misleading the little brother. She will never forgive you. And I can add some details to shock her even more.”

Pamela tries to be as false, lying, and evasive as possible. Never that she will admit the plan, even more to the family that never understands her!The first time, she came into the house all dirty, her clothes torn, crying for the rest of the day, and they didn't give a damn. It had to Melissa show up to suggest to them that Pamela might be raped. Even so, Mrs. Chaves only assumed that Pamela had been mugged.“This is a lie, Carmen! I don't want to sleep with Josias. He is my best friend's future boyfriend!”“Are you talking about the ‘assistant bricklayer’? You used to call it that nickname with scathing contempt. What has changed?” Carmen approaches her like a shark, “Did you happen to see him work without a shirt and fell in love with his worked body?”“It’s only a lesbian so as not to be turned on by Josias without a shirt!” Pamela yells defiantly to Carmen, “The point is that i
Building My Life Chapter 94 Costly Distraction
Dora is not at all upset to see Melissa drop an expensive portable stereo. But Carmen, like Melissa, is well aware that this walkman cost a fortune. The two crouch at the same time and pick up the walkman, anxious to see if it broke.Apparently, everything is under control. Melissa presses 'play' and Donna Summer continues to sing “On the radio” on her headphones.“Good thing, it didn't break.” Melissa presses 'pause' and continues to say, “Carmen, this is not funny.”“How can you think I would ask something like that as a joke? Pamela is behaving out of the normal.” Carmen straightens up on the couch, “She's getting a lot of calls, and she never says who is calling. I’ve seen her after those calls; she’s always nervous and tense.”Dora sits on the other couch, next to her daughter, to listen better.“Do you remember the day when she appeared all tearful and desperate?

There’s panic and commotion on Raul Coelho Avenue, with the running over of Pamela. The blow that she suffered was so strong that she even flew for a few centimeters. She fell on the asphalt and is now unconscious.“PAMELA!” Melissa screams at the top of her lungs.The other students who approached the school flock to it. The driver gets out of the car and despairs at the scene.“I'm sorry, it wasn't my intention! Why did she cross out of the crosswalk and all distracted?”The students tried to blame the driver and discredit him, but Melissa defended him. She notes that the driver is black and burly; if he gets irritated, he may want to attack clueless students with punches and kicks.“Jenny, go back to the slum and tell her parents!” Melissa orders, even though she knows that only Carmen will come.Jenny runs out and crosses the favela, drawing the attention of the neighbors once again.&ldqu

“I know the driver.” Josias says solemnly, “It's Tiago Bento, who lives with us. Excuse me; I'm going to talk to him.”Melissa and Uélton are amazed at the coincidence. Romualdo is also startled and narrows his eyes, but with one more reason...Josias approaches Tiago who is reporting to the police.“... And then she appeared out of the blue, walking distractedly, looking at the sky. She looked like she was saying a prayer to the Lord. I honked, I freed, but there was no time and she didn't wake up from the trance.”“Drugs?” The policeman asks insensitively.“Pamela is not a drug user.” Josias strikes firmly.Once again, Josias's temperament makes him defend people (mainly women) without being asked to do so. The policeman is irritated to see a boy in dirty cement clothes interrupting the questions.“Boy, wait your turn, if you can help us.”“O

Whoever cuts class will be disapproved!”Students run fearfully to school, some complain that they did not have time to mourn the accident. Melissa turns to Josias.“Honey, thank you so much for coming.”“I didn't do anything, Melissa,” Josias says.“Just being here has already nurtured my heart.” Melissa smiles and Josias smiles back.Jenny appears and pulls Melissa by the uniform shirt. “Come on, or the principal is going to drop us off!”Melissa says goodbye to Josias and runs to school with Jenny. The principal makes a face at them but allows them to come in.Uélton smiles and gives a little shove in Josias's shoulder.

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.

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
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

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

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—”

Diane and Karen stood nearby, visibly emotional to see him back.“Easy does it, son,” Daryl said with paternal care as they guided him.Felipe chuckled, amused by the fuss. “I’m fine, Dad. Don’t worry.”Diane’s eyes brimmed with tears. “My baby boy...”“Hey, Mom!” Felipe greeted her playfully. “Back from vacation — just please, for the love of God, don’t make me sit or lie down already!”Laughter erupted from everyone. Kelvin settled him into the comfortable armchair.“Doctor’s orders, Felipe. You just had surgery,” he reminded.“I swear, I’m okay!” Felipe insisted.“Maybe now, it looks that way,” Diane said gently. “But we can’t push our luck.”“Exac
Chapter 3238 Mary’s Quinceañera (2)
The quinceañera celebration continued in full swing at the Rocha Events Hall. Mary was now dancing with her uncle William. Despite his age, William still had the charm of a man who once graced soccer fields and magazine covers, and Mary’s friends were more than a little impressed.“My mom still keeps pictures of Mr. Campos from the ’80s,” one of her friends whispered to another, watching them dance. “He was such a heartthrob when he played soccer.”“I think my mom mentioned him too,” the second girl replied with a laugh.Andrew, catching a bit of their conversation, raised an eyebrow. “What are you girls talking about?”With mock innocence, the first friend smirked. “Jealous, Andrew? Don’t be. He’s just her hot uncle.”Andrew rolled his eyes, not rising to the bait. He knew exactly who William was.Meanwhile, William glanced around the dance floor and smiled at his niece. “I think I’m confusing your suitors, Mary.”“Let them be confused,” she replied sweetly. “I’m having a blast, Uncl

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
