A physical therapist recommended she should walk again to find out if her leg motor function had been affected.When Cristina starts walking with her hands on the iron bars, the physical therapist notices that she barely makes an effort.“Very well, Cristina.” He compliments her, “I can see you're just weak from the time you've been lying down, but soon you'll get that back too.”“Does that mean I won't be paralyzed?” Cristina asks anxiously.“Of course not, who told you such nonsense?”Cristina fades her smile, “I had the feeling when I saw my husband in the wheelchair. Looks like he doesn't get out of there.”“He is also recovering, my friend.” The doctor seems to be hiding something as he is not facing the patient.Cristina has the same feeling but decides to focus on walking between the bars.******At Angela's apartment, she enters with numerous plastic bags from the Ramos Supermarket.

Dora is upset to see that William practically confessed to her why he got punched.“You said you were robbed and the thief punched you!” Dora complains.“Who told you such nonsense?” William still has the nerve to pretend.“I just got a call from your uncle, reporting you.” Dora approaches him, “Who punched you, Tiago or Igor?”“It was a thief, mother, I was robbed!” William screams in panic like he's the same crybaby from 1980.Dora has the same feeling, “How ironic. You in that expensive and social outfit, as if you were an adult businessman, you actually behave as if you were still that whiny kid from the past, that boring guy who wanted Melissa to be a spinster.”William reddens, “Yeah, what's the use? Now Melissa is destroyed because the bastard allowed himself to die when he went to shut up his lover! If Melissa had obeyed me, none of this would have happened!”Simeon appears in the living room and joins in the conversation, “Son, if Melissa hadn't married Josias, we wouldn't ha

Actually, Raymond is in a bad mood because of everything he's been going through.He types the data provided by the new client with extra force into the computer. The bank brought this technological novelty and Raymond was forced to take a computer course at night, making him more tired due to the tight routine.“Would you not be the same Angela Sousa who claimed to be pregnant with Josias Rocha?” Raymond narrows his eyes.Angela gets outraged, “I didn't claim; David IS the son of Josias!”“The newspapers said that Josias was in a car accident on his way back from the capital after visiting you.” Raymond smiles sarcastically.“Yes, and I will be eternally sad about it.” Angela snorts.“And you didn't stop giving interviews t

Wait for my instructions.” Bernardo hangs up the phone and looks up when he feels someone enter the office, “Oh, it's you, my love. How was the interview with the sensation couple of the moment?”Maggie sits in the visitors' chair, dreamily, “Ah... how beautiful love is!”“You look like a teenager in love.” Bernardo jokes.“Well, I'm not that old yet.” Maggie chimed in, “The interview was a success. Mr. and Mrs. Barbosa love each other and are more united than ever. The face of Mr. Barbosa only withered away when he mentioned his son.”“His son?” Bernardo narrows his eyes.“I already had them search: Adrian Barbosa. This is the same nut who goes around saying he's going to marry Melissa Rocha.”“Careful, Maggie, we don't want to harm Widow Rocha,” Bernard

Tuesday. Melissa is standing in a graphite-colored pantsuit listening to the headlines on the radio.“And the residents of the Rocha residential complex had a little party yesterday in honor of the late Josias Rocha. Now enjoy Deborah Blando's new hit 'Innocence'!”The music starts to play, and the ballad leaves Melissa thoughtful, remembering the romantic and intimate moments she spent with Josias, the great love of her life.When Melissa was thinking about the night she asked Josias to perform a striptease dressed as a firefighter, the doorbell rang, and she decides to stop thinking to answer it.Upon opening the door, William appears without waiting for an invitation, “We need to talk, little sister!”Melissa rolls her eyes but closes the door and goes into the living room.She is shocked to see her younger brother turning off the radio, “Hey, why did you turn off the radio?

What the hell is going on here?”“Mother, did you correct my brother's crooked thoughts?” Melissa turns to her.Dora is also discouraged. Oh, damn, why did William decide to be so annoying?William massages his numb cheek, “Did you ladies agree to slap me?”“Will, don't you have to go to work?” Dora asks ironically.“I have, in the place I deserve.”“If you continue like this, Tiago will fire you!” Melissa asserts, “I want to see you try to get back into sports!”William feels extremely hurt, “I didn't need to appeal so low, sis.”“Will, just because Josias went from Head of Engineering to the president doesn't mean you have to go through the same promotion.” Melissa tries to explain with the patience of a teacher, “Tiago has been with the company since it started in 1981 and he knows all the details to run it.”“Okay, but the bastard who cheated on you with the luxury escort has appointed
Building My Life Chapter 1231 Does History Repeat Itself
In the Rocha penthouse, the tense and embarrassing situation continues. Alan approaches the others in the living room, stomping and scowling. “Uncle Will, how dare you to speak ill of my late father?” Melissa widens her eyes. Is the son speaking in the same firm tone as the father? William, however, just smiles petulantly, “Who are you to talk to me like that, brat?” “I am Alan Rocha, the heir of everything, so said my mother.” Alan boldly responds, “I still don't know what that means, but I don't like you cursing me, least of all my dad!” Dora approaches and takes Alan by the arm, “OK my grandson, don't get involved in the conversation, please.” “Ground him, Granny!” Alan demands of her. The two withdraw. Melissa smiles proudly for her son. “See why I wanted you single?” William doesn't turn the record, “Now you're alone and you're going to have to put up with two annoying kids.” “I ‘put up with’ both of them with the greatest pleasure.” Melissa counters, “The best thing I've

Chapter 3237 Mary’s Quinceañera (1)
That evening, the Rocha Events Hall was elegantly lit, and the soft sound of a waltz floated through the air.It was a joint celebration for Ignacio and Mary Campos Mountain. But more than just a birthday party, it marked Mary’s fifteenth birthday — her quinceañera.Because of that, the entire hall had been reserved for this important and unforgettable occasion.At the center of it all, Mary danced gracefully in a flowing, elegant pink gown that made her look like a miniature bride. 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
Chapter 3236 Support Your Wife
In the Mountain Penthouse living room, the atmosphere was far from serene. The heated discussion between Suzy and her boyfriend’s family showed no sign of calming down.“I can’t believe this!” Suzy exclaimed, her voice tight with indignation. “You all actually think I’m in love with Luís Vasquez!”Karen raised an eyebrow, her tone biting. “You’re not?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Suzy barked back. “I’m in love with Felipe — I love him!”Kelvin, unmoved, folded his arms. “Just not as much as you love your money and your... ‘investments.’”Diane lifted a hand, hoping to bring reason to the conversation. “Suzy, I’ve turned a deaf ear to all the gossip about you. I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane... I don’t know why Felipe insists on believing the lies João Paulo QUEIRÓS keeps spinning!”Daryl’s expression darkened. “So the problem lies with the journalist, then. Looks like I’ll have to deal with
Chapter 3235 I Don’t Want Cursed Money
The Mountain Penthouse living room was filled with tension that morning. Everyone was taken aback as the truth behind the fight that had sent Felipe to the hospital came to light.“Well, if that’s how it is...” Daryl began, clearly processing the news.Diane, urgent to defend her son, jumped in. “But wait, why exactly did Felipe and Luís decide to fight?”Suzy’s lips curled into a sly smile. It was time to drop the bomb.“According to my uncle Eugenio,” she began, “Felipe barged into his office and announced that he wanted to break up with me — because my uncle was happy about me being featured on the cover of Maggiezine.”Everyone looked even more stunned.“Wait, what does that have to do with anything?” Kelvin asked, frowning.Suzy explained, “Felipe saw my uncle thanking Luís for sort of encouraging me to accept the interview with Maggie.”Daryl exhaled sharply. “So my son just had a jealous outburst. That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you
Chapter 3234 The Girlfriend Showed Up
At the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin and Daryl were relieved that everything had turned out okay. Diane and Karen were nearby, on the sofas, chatting cheerfully. “God was merciful and allowed our son to live a few more years,” Diane declared. “Now, you both need to rest,” Karen patted Kelvin’s chest. “We slept beautifully while you two were in that sterile lounge.” Kelvin yawned once more. “I think I’ll take my dear wife’s advice; what do you think, Daryl?” “Who said we own the place?” Daryl yawned as well. The ladies laughed at their funny husbands. The doorbell rang. Tony passed through the living room, offering, “I’ll get it.” When Tony opened the door, he was surprised by the visitor. “Miss Cogo?” “How funny, you don’t call me by my first name. Did Felipe manage to talk to you before the coma?” Suzy asked bitterly, without smiling. Tony reacted perplexed by this torrent of unfriendly words. “Uh... Come in, please.” Suzy entered, ready for the storm. “Who is it, big brothe
Chapter 3233 A Surprising Report
The next day, Matthew Hogan entered the General Hospital lounge and found Daryl and Kelvin incredibly exhausted but hopeful. “Doctor, how did it go?” Daryl nearly jumped on Matthew. “Calm down, the patient survived the surgery. It’s just a matter of time before he’s back in his room.” “Oh, thank God!” Kelvin cheered. Daryl couldn’t resist and hugged Matthew. “Thank you so much, doctor!” Matthew smiled, somewhat awkwardly, but aware that it was a common reaction. “You’re welcome, we did everything we could.” “Yeah, I understand.” Daryl released the hug, rubbing his eyes — whether from sleep or wiping away a tear. “It’s going to take a little while. I suggest you both go home and rest a bit,” Matthew said. “I think we’ll do just that,” Kelvin yawned. “Now that the danger has passed, I think I deserve it. Doctor, let us know if anything happens,” Daryl requested, patting the doctor’s shoulder. “I’ll do. And congratulations to you both.” Matthew left the lounge. Kelvin yawned a
Chapter 3232 The Detective I Trust
At the Rocha Hotel, Eugenio and Jake are talking to Suzy about what is happening. Jake was upset. “Suzy, haven’t you gone to visit your boyfriend yet?” “I don’t know if it’s a good idea to show up there right now.” Suzy lowered her head. “The fight happened... here?” Eugenio responded indignantly, “Yes, in my beloved living room. Luís lost his temper when Felipe called him ‘Spanish Stallion.’“ Suzy lifted her head, completely changing her posture. “WHAT? Well, then, the beating didn’t come out of nowhere!” “Come on, sis, don’t go along with this,” Jake advised her. “They’re saying Felipe’s condition is serious.” “Serious is Luís getting teased every single day by the nickname he despises the most!” Suzy exclaimed. Eugenio decided to tell the whole story, “Suzy, there’s a lot more you don’t know.” “Tell me, uncle!” “Felipe, before being assaulted, said he wouldn’t continue dating you, claiming that the Cogo family would always prefer Luís.” Suzy reacted, paralyzed by this inf

Rodrigo and Nadia entered the General Hospital lounge, finding Karen and Diane. “We’re here! Where’s Daryl?” Nadia approached the couch. “He went to check with Kelvin for more information,” Diane sniffed. “Thanks for coming.” “We wouldn’t be family if we didn’t show up,” Nadia sat down near them. “And I’m a mother too.” Rodrigo poured himself some coffee. “Any news?” Diane took a deep breath. “Felipe is still awake. Dr. Hogan said the tests revealed a concussion, and they’re now deciding if surgery will be necessary.” “How horrible.” Nadia shuddered. “Well, whether surgery is necessary or not, I hope everything goes well for Felipe.” “Now, I find it strange that Suzy still hasn’t shown up!” Karen frowned. “Did you see her outside?” “No. We thought she was inside or with Daryl,” Nadia replied honestly. Diane shook her head. “No, guys, I can’t believe Suzy would choose to work or handle investments instead of checking on her boyfriend!” Rodrigo took a sip – the coffee wasn’t a
Chapter 3230 The Lady of Lagoon City Makes a Powerful Speech
At Vaztrans, William swallowed hard before answering Sofia’s question.“Sofia, your cousin really went too far this time,” he began cautiously.“What do you mean?” Sofia narrowed her eyes. “I know Luís can be a bit difficult, but—”“Yes, the hot Spanish blood speaks louder sometimes, right?” William took a deep breath. “Luís assaulted Felipe. Daryl rushed to the hospital.”Sofia reacted with her mouth open, holding her breath.Then she composed herself. “How could he do such a thing?”“Do you want to hear my guess?” William asked with a sly smile.“No! It can’t be because of Suzy Cogo!” Sofia ran her hands through her hair as if to pull it out.“It seems we were wrong to have accepted her partnership, huh?” William shook his head.“If she starts to tarnish Vaztrans’ reputation...” Sofia paced around the office. “First, her statement: her reluctance to raise the salary of the employees here. Now, this love triangle that I thought was over...”“Everaldo warned us to be careful with her,”
Chapter 3229 Despair at the General Hospital
At Vaztrans, William and Daryl were discussing the repercussions of Suzy’s article in Maggiezine.“People are accepting Suzy’s apologies and explanations,” William broke the silence, holding a copy.Daryl pursed his lips. “Whatever. Sometimes I think João Paulo is lurking, ready to pounce on anything to throw us into confusion.”“But the salary bonus we promised will be paid, right?” William smirked.“Of course, what choice do we have?” Daryl pointed to the magazine. “She made it clear in the interview. We’re not going to contradict her, are we?”William laughed ironically. “It seems Suzy is going to be the kind of person who does anything to get out of trouble, even if it means contradicting herself.”Daryl’s cell phone rang, and he answered, seeing it was Diane. “My dear is calling. Hello, Di?”Diane was at the hospital entrance, trying to be strong. “Hello, Daryl. We need you at the hospital.”“What happened?” Daryl’s eyes widened.“Luís Vasquez beat our son to a pulp, as they say,
