Building My Life Chapter 1300 Everaldo's Letter
Josias is sitting on the lounger looking out to Lagoon City's night skyline.He is meditating on the twists his life took especially in the 90s.In 1990, Everaldo warned him to be careful. Josias didn't pay attention and slept drunk with Angela in 1991. Still, in 1991, he bedded Katherine to vent the jealousy he felt for seeing Melissa and Adrian in a newspaper photo. The result of these two deviations was the generation of two children out of wedlock.Josias's main concern was that the two babies born are boys. Boys who will grow up to be men. Two men with the last name Rocha. What if they feel entitled to demand something?Katherine approaches him with a cup of tea, “Darling, as we don't have a maid, I brought you this cup for you to relax.”Josias narrows his eyes at her, “What do you mean, 'we don't have a maid'?

Now I will approach the rest of the group.”Jock decides to question Josias's half-brother, “João Paulo, are you the famous brother of Josias Rocha?”“With great pride!” João Paulo puts his teeth on the beach.“How is he?” Jock tries to ask casually, “We see on the news that another woman is living in the penthouse.”João Paulo breaks his smile, “She's one of the sluts who

In the photo, Melissa is laughing because of a joke told by Uélton. He, Flávia, and the children were registered in the photo. A familiar scenario.“There's nothing immoral here, Kate.” Josias returns the newspaper, “Don't bother me.”“Look again!” Katherine refuses to take the newspaper back.When Josias scrutinizes the photo, he finds the hottie Kelvin between Melissa and Alan as if he were the father and husband.Josias doesn't show the slightest bit of jealousy, “I repeat, Kate: there's nothing licentious about this photo.

Cristina and Diane talk with the newspaper open on the counter.“Looks like I can see you here in the corner of the picture, honey.” Cristina jokes while pointing to the photo.“It's me, Aunt Cris. I look ugly and dull while the other women wore sexy bikinis.” Diane ducks her head, “I don't even know how Daryl didn't dump me then and there for a hot blonde who was topless.”Cristina laughs, “It's because he respects you, honey. He chose you.”Diane lifts her head, “It's clear we've become great friends.”“All I need is for me to receive the wedding invitation!” Cristina laughs.Moacyr appears wheeling himself in the wheelchair, “What's so funny, honey?”“Diane thinks she's unlovable when in fact Daryl kisses the ground she walks on,” Cristina responds by being romantic.Moacyr gets in the mood, “Niece, you must prepare to be the future Mrs. Mountain and work at the restaurant.”“But, unc

Frederick doesn't understand why Benjamin keeps asking about Jock. The two remain talking next to the dumpster.“I have no idea of ulterior motives, Ben.” Frederick admits with a shrug, “Maybe he wanted to know like every person who moves here. You know, in the country we don't have Maggiezine to read.”“You mean the guy was just curious?” Benjamin crosses his arms to confirm.“Yes, he is working at Rocha Constructions.” Frederick smiles, “See how nice the hotel is turning out? He must be working alongside his ex-father-in-law and Uélton Freire, Josias's best friend.”“If Jock wants to know about Josias, it's Uélton he should ask questions.” Benjamin scoffs, “The two have known each other for 13 years. Well, let's get back to work, this garbage is more fetid than before.”The two boys go back inside Crystal Blue using the back door.******At Simeon's house, Dora is sweeping the living room with the radio on playing “Walking in My Shoes” by Depeche Mode.

Bernardo approaches the bar and strikes up a conversation with Daryl after Kelvin goes to his post at the entrance to Crystal Blue.Daryl is impressed by his brother-in-law's visit, “Bernie, how are you?”“I'm in big trouble, Daryl. I was wondering if you and Kelvin can help me.” Bernardo looks both ways, fearing that Shirley is nearby, “I want to know what this is all about that your mother is in love with me.”Daryl drops a crystal goblet to the floor. All employees turn their heads to what happened.Frederick approaches with a broom and dustpan, “Don't worry sir, I'll clean it up.”Daryl walks away and nervously leads Bernardo to the office.When the two gentlemen enter, Daryl closes the door. He's tense and worried, “Bernie, where did you get that idea?”Bernardo narrows his eyes as he analyzes Daryl. Is this an 'idea'? Why so much nervousness?“It doesn’t just sound like an old wives’ tale to me.” Bernardo correctly observes, “Maggie keeps accusing her mother of this, and Shirley

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

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,
