Building My Life Chapter 1214 Angela Charges the Child Support
Carmen and Tiago visit Moacyr and Cristina at the hospital. Moacyr continues to look carefully at his wife as if his gaze had the power to wake up Cristina. “Seu Moacyr, how are you?” Carmen asks. “I'm better, daughter.” Moacyr sighs, “And that's what revolts me.” “Why do you say that, sir?” Tiago asks. “Because I should be in a coma or six feet under the ground!” Moacyr can't hold back any longer and starts crying, “I was driving that damn car, I saw the car coming in the parallel direction and I couldn't stop. Worse, I don't even know if I tried to brake. And my wife was saying goodbye to you guys, without her seat belt. How could I be so careless?” Carmen hugs Moacyr to comfort him. Pamela arrives at this point with the offside order. “Oh, I hope I haven't come at a bad time.” “Come on, Pam.” Tiago makes room, “Seu Moacyr is much shaken.” “I hope I can lighten the mood.” Pamela smiles slightly and shakes the envelope, “Miguel has issued a court order to prevent Adrian from e

Igor is apprehensive when Angela charges a high amount of child support. Will Melissa pay? “Miss Sousa, I suggest you charge a moderate amount.” Angela takes offense, “Mrs. Rocha has no idea how much we spend with a baby? Didn't she have two children?” “Baby expenses, yes.” Igor quips, “But it looks like you want to guarantee money until your son turns 30!” Gustavo interjects, “Mr. Lawyer, if Josias were alive, he would pay child support until David is 18.” “I know that very well, don't teach a priest how to say Mass, little boy!” Igor gets angry. “So this is my price.” Angela cackles, “R$100,000.00 and I won't bother you anymore. In the future, I will look for a job to make things easier, and I hope my son has the same successful trajectory as his father.” “Except impregnating the luxury escort.” Igor scoffs getting up to leave. Angela was going to tell him to go to hell, but she shuts up in time, afraid of losing the deal. ****** Kelvin walks past the newsstand and its owne

Don't I deserve to be happy too, Bernie?” Maggie feels her heart go cold when she hears her mother's hiss and immediately breaks the hug. Her face catches fire as she hears her mother so intimately, “Who authorized you to call my HUSBAND 'Bernie', you—” “MAGGIE!” Bernardo sternly warns her. Where was that sweet, honeyed wife from before? Shirley smiles, pleased to end the happiness in the room, and adds more fuel to the fire, “Bernie, didn't you promise me you wouldn't sexually exploit the image of my baby?” “What baby?” Maggie laughs, “Wake up, Mom! Kelvin is now twenty-eight, handsome, and hot,

Thursday. At Vernon's, he's lounging around in his armchair, smoking cigars he bought on his credit card, still in his pajamas and slippers, in no mood to leave the house.His radio plays “Finally” by Ce Ce Peniston.Elza approaches him, “Did you finally find a job?”“No, darling.” Vernon sucks the cigar and puffs, “Since nobody wants to hire me, I'm going to relax!”“But what about our bills?” Elza gets angry, “The hotel is not ready yet!”“They didn't even build the foundation.” Vernon scoffs at his wife, “If you wait for these people, you'll be unemployed forever.”“This is not true. The Rocha Hotel was Josias’s promise.”“Wife, since that folk hates us, they won't build the hotel anymore to harm you, simple as that!”“Melissa doesn't hate us and she's the one in control.”“That Tiago Bento is the one who appears in the newspapers as responsible because the world is too sexist to recognize Melissa as the president of Rocha Constructions.” Vernon laughs evilly.Elza was going to cou

Reuben is in the office watching cartoons on the portable TV.In keeping with tradition, the radio is always on, this time playing “Bohemian Rhapsody”. After Freddie Mercury's death, Brazilian radio stations played this song again as a tribute.It is at this moment that Benjamin enters tired from school and yesterday's journey.“Little sister, is there aspirin on the counter?”“I have it in the first-aid cabinet that is in the office.” Flávia turns down the volume on the radio so as not to disturb her stepbrother.“School made me impatient today. The Portuguese teacher wants me to read Machado de Assis for a school project.”“I think this fatigue is due to the restaurant.” Flávia approaches him, “If you want my advice, it's better to take it easy.”“Well, sis, you know how things work: when you're a new employee, you have to show your best sel

Melissa is upset to see the possibility of two gentlemen fighting over her.At this moment, Frederick appears to work and witnesses the discussion.Melissa interposes between Adrian and Kelvin, “You guys, stop and get over it! Nobody here will fight!”“He disrespected you, Melissa!” Adrian yells.“And who are you, the knight in silver armor to save the maiden?” Kelvin questions him ironically.Frederick holds back not punching Adrian because of Josias. He pretends he doesn't hear the fight and passes them by unnoticed.Adrian takes a deep breath and calms down to impress Melissa, “Okay, I'll pretend Melissa wasn't disrespected. Book me a table.”“Mrs. Rocha has reserved the last!” Kelvin lies, seething with rage. There are still seven tables available.“I hope it's a table for two because we're going to have lunch together.” Adrian turns to Melissa, “What do you think, Melissa?”“It's all right.” Melissa 'agrees' after the crazy person invites himself.Kelvin makes the reservation, fe
Building My Life Chapter 1220 Discovering the Enemy
As if sensing that William was being sexist to his own aunt, Simeon has kinda discomfort while having lunch with Uélton and Adolfo at the construction site.“What is it, Simeon?” Adolfo notices him restless.“My son keeps complaining that Tiago Bento called Melissa to help him in the presidency of Rocha Constructions.”“He did this so Melissa wouldn't be in the penthouse with depression all the time.” Uélton sums up the whole story.“The problem is that Will thinks he should be in charge because he was in the same position as Josias before he was president,” Simeon responds with embarrassment.“Ah, but he will finish the SENAI course this year,” Adolfo remembers this detail.“It's not just that.” Simeon continues, “He still hasn't forgiven Josias for what happened and he lives to insult his memory. There will be a day when Melissa will scold him severely.”At this, Uélton drops his fork on the floor, “What a...! This is already too much! I need to talk to this guy!”“Take it easy, Uél

In the hospital lounge, Carmen is being cared for by a nurse while Tiago talks to Amoreira in a confidential tone.“I thought you told your wife.” Amoreira accuses him.“There's so much going on in our lives that I forget about some things.” Tiago scratches the back of his head.“Well, next time, make a note in your diary: ‘reveal to my wife who tried to kill my mother-in-law.’”Tiago purses his lips, not taking the joke well. Carmen starts to wake up.“Gentlemen, the patient is reacting.” The nurse informs them and gets up.“Carmen, how are you, my love?” Tiago approaches her.“Tiago... what a horrible thing...”Tiago sits next to his wife, “Forgive me for not telling you sooner.”“Does Pam know?”“No, I didn't tell her either.”Carmen nods, “Well, since she got the injunction for Adrian not to show up here, it makes sense to know that the newlyweds' car was sabotaged.”Amoreira approaches them, “Mr. Barbosa peremptorily denies it and begs me to innocence his son. He believes it was

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
Chapter 3213 Time to Think About the Future
Sofia and Suzy started arguing in the middle of the employees in the Vaztrans garage. “Suzy, don’t be stingy!” Sofia exclaimed. “After many years, our company finally had some financial breathing room. I want to celebrate this achievement by doing something nice for our hardworking employees.” “That’s right, Mrs. Campos Rocha!” The employees cheered. Suzy smiled maliciously. “I see your little game.” “What do you think I’m doing?” Sofia crossed her arms. “You’re staging a publicity stunt or trying to win the hearts of the employees. Well, that’s not going to happen!” “You...” Sofia held back the urge to slap Suzy but decided to take the high road. She turned to the drivers and conductors and shrugged. “I tried.” Sofia made a strategic retreat, leaving Suzy alone in front of disappointed employees. “Hey, wait...!” Suzy felt she was about to be lynched and ran out of the garage. The employees booed and cursed her without mercy. ****** At João Paulo’s house, he was sitting in
Chapter 3212 Can We Give a Raise?
Reynaldo and Leonardo were talking in the former’s office, tension and anxiety taking over their voices and expressions. “So you mean the idiot knows everything?” Leonardo asked illogically. “If J.J. discovered our plan, then he’s not an idiot, man.” Reynaldo corrected him. “You understood what I meant!” Leonardo gestured. “And now? What are we going to do?” “Most likely, Josias Rocha knows too.” Reynaldo sighed, discouraged. “As our father said, we need to wait for the dust to settle before we act again.” “We need to make you the majority partner.” Leonardo asserted. “Leo, sometimes I’d prefer if you stayed out of this.” Reynaldo admitted from the bottom of his heart. “You have a career as a lawyer that precedes you. If things get worse, if you’re exposed, not only would you be fired from Damascene Lawyers – no agency would have the guts to hire you.” Leonardo smiled and patted his brother’s right shoulder. “Don’t worry about me. Avenging our father is more important than anyt
Chapter 3211 Sofia Is Innocent
At Vasconcelos Fabrics, the biggest and most controversial conversation J.J. had ever had in his life was taking place. If he saw himself acting all tough and wild with Reynaldo, he wouldn’t recognize himself. Footsteps echoed down the hallway toward the office. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, man!” Reynaldo mustered the courage, hoping someone would come to save him. “Okay, it’s understandable that you don’t want to produce evidence against yourself.” J.J. smiled ironically. The office door opened, and Leonardo appeared. “Is something going on here?” “Hello, big brother!” J.J. continued in an ironic tone. “The coincidence of you showing up here is almost timed!” “Have you been drinking?” Leonardo frowned, and then looked at a terrified Reynaldo. “J.J. isn’t feeling well; it’s best to leave him alone.” Reynaldo’s expression told Leonardo what was really happening. “Alright, I need to talk to you about some matters. Have a good day, J.J.” Leonardo, in an attorney’s po
Chapter 3210 Josias Junior in Action
At Vaztrans, William questioned Sofia about the company’s finances, which are now in order since her parents stopped interfering.“Uh, I think the explanation is simple. With my father no longer here, we don’t have that urge to prove we’re always the best public transportation company in the city.” Sofia sat face to face with him. “I remember my father would always freak out when people mocked the old bus models we had.”“Yeah, and he would waste money buying expensive buses that we couldn’t afford to maintain.” William accepted this explanation for now. “So, Sofia, you wouldn’t be offended if I said your father was just playing at being a manager?”Sofia made a face. “My father managed Vaztrans since its inception. I’m here to continue his legacy.”“I know you’ll do a good job.” William leaned back in his chair. “I just want us to keep things this way now that we’re in control.”Sofia crossed her arms. “Great. I hope that doesn’t mean any insinuation on your part – or from that littl
