Why are you here?”“For nothing.” João Paulo gets nervous.“Son, do not enter this illustrious restaurant in these simple clothes.” Elza advises him, “Where are those clothes that Josias told you about? They are of a good brand and more appropriate to be here.”“Okay, mom, I'll remember that.” Suddenly João Paulo remembers something to justify himself, “I wanted to see Ben.”“Ben comes in later since he studies in the morning,

Josias doesn't know how to respond to João Paulo. He even mentioned that it would be nice to let Melissa follow her heart. But would he be ready?“João Paulo, I don't know if I can answer you now.”“If you can't answer me, it's because you still love Melissa, and you can't bear to see her with another guy.”Josias tries to disguise, “Kelvin Mountain is a good guy; he's a better choice than Adrian.”“Then I won't interfere if she decides to date him. Well, that was it, I'll hang up. In the afternoon I pass some gossip to Fred.”João Paulo hangs up. Josias turns to Frederick.“And then?” He asks.“Prepare your ears. We have more revelations later.”******Jack is in front of Daniel Oliveira in the director's office.

Let’s celebrate Cristina’s recovery.”“Raymond, how long are you going to give up?” Moacyr didn't hear what Tiago said.“Never?” Raymond responds with mockery.“I suggest you give it up for Cristina's mental good. She won't like knowing you're going to jail.”Raymond undoes the smugy face.“Who says I'm going to jail?”“Detective Amoreira will realize that you were the one who sabotaged my car,” Moacyr answers somberly.“That's a lie! I would never do anything to harm Cris, precisely because I love her!”“You love her so much you'd rather her dead than live with another man.” Moacyr replies, “I know that kind of sick love.”Raymond rages, “Stop innuendo. Who should be investigated is your son! He was also against your marriage, but he didn't respect you.”“My son happened to be at the ceremony, I saw him from the altar.” Moacyr smiles evilly

No, father, you wanted to venture out with that indigestible Abigail, mother felt defeated.”“Defeat will be what she has now, having to support and care for an invalid.”Pamela turns around and sees Cristina taking forkfuls of cake in Moacyr's mouth.“This was also a result of the accident, but soon he's walking again,” Pamela responds hopefully.Melissa, Carmen, Vânia, and Shirley app

And time continues to pass. At the Bezerra farm, Katherine is still unhappy with the outcome of her bizarre actions in 1991. She caresses her eight-month-old womb, sitting on the couch watching television. Jock appears before her shirtless and in jeans worn from hard work on the farm. The same hard work left his chest strong and his belly with the famous six-pack abs. “Are you feeling all right, dear?” Katherine glares at Jock. They are married, but Katherine has sworn never to see Jock as a husband. She wants Josias! However, there could not be a more loving, caring, and gentle husband than Jock. His amber eyes are kind and his voice shows interest and concern. “I am fine! Go wear a shirt and leave me alone!” “If anything happens, call Adelina.” He does not return the rudeness and respectfully withdraws. Katherine grabs the remote and throws it away, almost hitting the TV. Damn it! Where did Josias go? She had decided to name the baby Josias when the doctor informed her that
Building My Life Chapter 1242 The Exams Result
However, Elza is warning her husband as they have breakfast. “Man, forget about this revenge bullshit. Isabel Freire has a closed body and nothing we do bothers or harms her.” Vernon frowns, “I thought you hated her.” “I hate the maid, Flavia. She married into the Freire family and with that, we hate them by association.” “But it was just the maid who caught me with Mrs. Marçal and threatened to report this to her husband,” Vernon says this to bring Elza to his side. Indeed, Elza chokes on her sip of coffee, “What? It was her? So, darling, we urgently need revenge!” “To know that Mrs. Marçal does not agree with the promotion of the illiterate woman’s book give us a chance.” Vernon chews the buttered bread. “We have to go unnoticed by Melissa. She has already declared her support for the soap opera. Let's hope the ratings fail!” Elza and Vernon toast with their cups. ****** Maggie and Bernardo have breakfast at Crystal Blue, before Kelvin and the waiters start cleaning up. Th

Josias is talking to Ernesto in his apartment. Frederick had already left for work.“Ernesto, get ready for the next step.” Josias announces with a serious face, “You will tell the Bento brothers that I am alive.”Ernesto leans back on the sofa, “Are you sure?”“Yes. The bank canceled my bank account and passed all my earnings to Melissa, as I instructed in the will. I'm going to need Tiago to help me. And there's more.”“What?”“The Bento brothers have this strange scheme of figuring things out. Let it stay between us, Ernesto, but they discovered the whereabouts of Jeremiah Ramos and took justice into their own hands.”Ernesto is startled by the information, “Was it that idiot who pestered you when you lived in Seu Teodoro's building?”“Yes, the one that nearly raped their sister and I saved her. How they discovered Jeremiah's whereabouts is beyond me, so I decided to ask them for help.”“The Bento brothers idolize the ground you walk on, sir; for sure they will protect you from tha

Chapter 3148 Josias Is Insane
Josias visits the Rocha Hotel since he didn’t have a day off for the staff. In the management room, Eugenio gathered David, Benjamin, and Sybil. “Why is that mere cook present at this meeting?” David asked disparagingly. “Because that’s how our boss ordered it,” Eugenio replied dryly. “I didn’t say anything and didn’t call this meeting, so if you’ll excuse me...” Benjamin and Sybil were horrified to see David leaving the meeting just like that. However, when he opened the door, David came face to face with his father. “David, where do you think you’re going?” “DAD!” David exclaimed, extremely surprised. “I didn’t know you were coming!” “Didn’t Eugenio tell you I was coming?” Josias asked with a scowl. David understood who the ‘boss’ was. Benjamin and Sybil felt vindicated. Josias sat down at the desk, taking Eugenio’s seat, while the manager remained humbly standing. “Very well,” Josias began the meeting in a formal tone, “I’m here just to make things crystal clear.

Josias was here earlier, more concerned about my loss than his own, as always. Isn’t he supposed to be resting?”Melissa nodded. “My husband is like that: he only relaxes when all of us are relaxed.”“An impossible mission because of certain people.”Neilton approached with the glass. “Who ordered a guava juice?”“I DID!” Mary grabbed the glass and went to a table.Melissa leaned forward, “Neil, Rod, how are Daryl and Diane?

At João Paulo’s house, he and Josias were about to have a significant conversation.“Walter, do you want to go with your mom to the kitchen?” João Paulo asked, looking at Helen. “I think she made some walnut cake.”“It was carrot cake,” Sandra replied, already getting up from the couch.“You got it.” Helen appeared and picked up Walter in her arms. “Let’s let Dad and Uncle Josias talk.”“Bye, Uncle!” Walter waved goodbye to Josias.“Bye-bye, I want a piece later!” Josias chuckled.Once alone with João Paulo, Josias became serious. “Don’t let anything or anyone ruin this family scenario, little brother.”“I’m fine. No one wants to ruin anything,” João Paulo replied casually.“Well, I hope David hasn’t caused you any trouble.”“He probably doesn’t even know I exist, man.” João Paulo shrugged.“But I stopped by Café Montanha and found out that the Vasquez family has replaced the Mountain family as the ‘annoying people.’”João Paulo sighed in disappointment. “Yeah.

Chapter 3145 João Paulo Is a Good Father
Josias visits Café Montanha for a coffee and finds Rodrigo there. “Rod, how have you been?” Rodrigo is taken aback. “How am I? You’re the one who suffered a horrific loss recently!” “But you also lost your father. We’re in the same situation,” Josias explained as he sat down on a stool. “I’m okay, Josias. Life has a way of cheering me up. For example, I’m back at the diner after Thierry decided to take his place at the supermarket.” Rodrigo smiled. “What about the photography studio?” Josias smiled back. “It’s still going to operate, and Thierry will make periodic visits. But he’s going to appoint one of the staff to manage the studio.” Rodrigo served a pizza pastry to Josias. “Thank you. Well, I hope everything is alright between you two. I need to visit Rosemary and meet Jean Luc — is that the name of the baby?” “Yes, the name of the supermarket heir. Meanwhile, Frank will be here or somewhere else.” Josias interjected, “If Frank wants to work at Rocha Constructions, count

At the Rocha Mansion, Josias receives a visit from Benjamin. “How have you been, Ben? Any news about your parents?” The two embrace. “Actually, that’s what I want to talk about.” Benjamin scratches the back of his neck. The embrace breaks. “Let’s go to my office.” The two gentlemen enter Josias’s imposing office. “Any problems with Adolfo?” Josias asks, becoming serious. “Not yet, but I hope not to have any,” Benjamin replies with some sadness. “You know, Josias, what happened with your father made me think about my family, about how important it is for all of us to be together in the final moments.” “That’s true. João Paulo can tell you that better than I can.” “I think you can say it too. Vernon was the father you never had.” Benjamin clears his throat. “So, I’ve been looking into some hotels and realized there’s a demand at the Rocha Hotel in Victoria.” Josias looks at Benjamin, understanding where he’s going with this. “You want to go to Victoria to be close to your pare

Someone rings the doorbell at João Paulo’s house. The homeowner goes to answer after taking a shower and putting on clean clothes. But when he opened the door, João Paulo felt like slamming it in the visitor’s face. “Don’t be rude!” Erasmo exclaimed. “What do you want, you old bore?” João Paulo shot back. Erasmo barged into João Paulo’s foyer. “The mourning is over. Let’s pick up where we left off.” “Are you crazy? Who decides how long mourning lasts? We just got back from the trip!” “Not exactly, it’s been a day. Life goes on, my friend!” Erasmo replied mockingly. João Paulo remained serious. “But I don’t want to continue living this way, where fights and intrigues are the order of the day. Mr. Vasquez, you have a business to run, and I have a family to raise.” “But you found time to slap my son-in-law when he was here defending his family, didn’t you?” “Alan was extremely rude, but that was some time ago.” João Paulo frowned. “I don’t feel the same anger as before.” “So a

Chapter 3142 Let’s Launch Another Biography
At the Vasquez Mansion, Alan could hardly believe that the people were thinking about more intrigues and disputes. “Guys, don’t you understand that I even forgot the reason I slapped Uncle João Paulo?” “Ridiculous!” Erasmo gestured. “You just maintained respect because it was a difficult occasion. But now, the mourning is OVER!” “Do you think João Paulo will rest, dear?” Sofia asked, sitting next to him. Alan shook his head. “If Uncle João Paulo doesn’t want to rest, then he is truly despicable. But my dad is back in town. He wouldn’t dare to do that.” The news should have been uplifting, but the members of the Vasquez family merely exchanged silent glances. With Josias present, it’s quite likely that he will put a stop to their fighting. Alan turned to Olivia. “In the meantime, we should celebrate the recovery of my dear mother-in-law!” Olivia and Sofia smiled awkwardly because of the secret they were keeping. “That’s right, let’s celebrate life!” Erasmo wrapped his arm arou

Josias Rocha and his family returned to Lagoon City. Those who were waiting for them stayed in the mansion and greeted them cheerfully in the foyer. “WELCOME BACK!” Melissa, crying, embraced her parents, William, and the twins fervently. Josias greeted them with a light smile. “Where’s João Paulo?” William asked. “He went straight to his house. His kids needed to rest from the trip.” Melissa wiped her tears with her fingers. “Alan went straight to his mansion. Especially now that his mother-in-law has woken up from the coma.” “That was a scare; I thought we’d have two funerals,” Simeon commented. Everyone headed to the living room. “Is Paris very beautiful, Mom?” Mary asked. “Yes, sweetheart, it’s stunning. We’ll go shopping together another time, okay?” “Do you have pictures?” Ignacio asked anxiously. “Yes, son, we took some pictures.” Melissa sat on the couch, pulling out a package from her bag. Josias sat in the armchair, taking a deep breath. William approached him.

At Café Montanha, Daryl walks in for a coffee and finds Rodrigo at the counter while Neilton serves the others. “Hey, are we back to the old tradition?” “Don’t be a clown, man.” Rodrigo laughs. “Yes, Thierry is at the supermarket, as we agreed.” “Hi, Neil. Can you make me a cappuccino while I enjoy a natural sandwich?” Daryl places his order. “Sure thing, Mr. Mountain.” Neilton heads to the back. Daryl sits on the stool. “So, how do you feel after getting back to your element?” “I don’t regret at all helping my dear wife at the supermarket, Daryl,” Rodrigo admitted while preparing the natural sandwich. “I’m not talking about regrets.” Daryl joked. “But it’s undeniable that after Uncle Francisco’s passing, you prefer to stay here, carrying on the legacy he left.” “Just like Crystal Blue.” Rodrigo smiled. “Hey, I’m aware that you’re looking to open another restaurant in Sunset Village. Do you think you can manage it? How’s the prospecting going?” Daryl picks up the sandwich but
