Building My Life Chapter 1401 Fake Interview
1994Josias is sitting in the armchair in the living room, calmly reading the new issue of Maggiezine. Although the magazine was more aimed toward the female audience, Josias feels that he is honoring Melissa by reading it.Katherine would burn with jealousy at other times, but she holds back because at any moment Maggie's interview could appear in the magazine.J.J appears, walking into the room. The boy will be three years old and is already eating solid things.Josias notices his son's presence and smiles, “Hello, J.J! Exploring the penthouse?”“Daddy!”J.J goes to him. Josias picks up his son and puts him on his lap. Josias tries to read the magazine, but the son keeps pointing and trying to move the pages.“Calm down, son, let daddy read the magazine.”“Mommy!”Josias is surprised by J.J’s eagle vision. Neither had he noticed.On the left page of the magazine, there was a picture of Katherine taken on the sofa in the same living room they are in. The title of the report reads: “M
Building My Life Chapter 1402 Carmen Pregnant
Josias enters Rocha Constructions for another day of work. Carmen is exclusively happy that day.“Good morning, Carmen.”“A great day for us all, sir!”Josias smiles and is surprised, “Wow, did something happen that I don't know about?”Carmen stands up, “Sir... it finally happened. I'm pregnant!"Josias joins in the excitement, “Wow, Carmen! Congratulations, I thought Tiago was sterile!”Tiago appears as if by magic, “Who is sterile here?”Everyone laughs. Josias hugs Carmen and then shakes hands with his friend and financial director.“Congratulations, guys. I am very happy with the expansion of the Bento family.” Josias comments.“Unfortunately, Marcelo is not here to celebrate with us.” Tiago sighs, “But we still have Igor as an uncle and Elisa with a cousin for my firstborn.”“We still don't know the sex of the baby, but that comes with time.” Carmen replies, “Oh, I'm so happy.”“It reminds us that we're going to need a new secretary.” Tiago erects his index finger.Josias has a

Josias is very comfortable in his presidential chair. The room has been renovated and the wall is painted light gray.He's calling his mother, “Hello, Mom, this is your dear son.”On the other side, Elza is sitting at the desk with a bright smile, “Hi, my son! And so, have you seen the report of the first months of Rocha Hotel?”“They’re encouraging, Mom. Customers looked for our hotel, especially at Christmas and New Year.”“I just hope our competitors don't want to build a hotel right in Sunset Village. That’s where the fireworks after the countdown take place.”“Yes, since 1983...” Josias gets melancholy.He remembers that when City Hall started the New Year's Eve tradition at Sunset Village, Josias was there with Melissa. Both had promised to work hard and Josias had promised to get his driver's license.“Son? Josias?” Elza called him to reality.“Hi, Mom, sorry. I was rambling.”“What were you thinking about?”Josias takes a deep breath, "I can't hide anything from you, huh?"“Of

The following week, Katherine was sitting on the couch reading the new issue of Maggiezine. The living room radio played “Mr. Vain” by Culture Beat.Suddenly, Katherine feels her blood boiling as she reads a page.Instead of a well-written article, Maggiezine took only a quarter of a page to debunking the entire interview she had done with Katherine.“In a note, we want to apologize to our dear readers for announcing that Katherine Bezerra would be the next Mrs. Rocha. Josias Rocha appeared at our office and denied the information.”After reading this, Katherine throws the magazine to the floor, "Damn, you bastard!"Josias enters the living room at this point, “Who are you cussing so much?”Katherine gets up, wide-eyed, “YOU! Why did you go to Maggiezine to humiliate me even more?”Josias smiles from the corner of his mouth, “Who told you to chat with Maggie Marçal here in my penthouse, without my permission? Kate, I told you from the beginning to stay away from the media.”“Well, I d

Josias is uncomfortable with Diane's request to regain full custody of Caio just to secure her relationships with Daryl, Melissa, and Kelvin.“I don't know if that would be wise, Diane.” Josias responds as best as he can, “Many people accuse me of being nosy.”“I already feel divided.” Diane states, “I am a direct cousin to Adrian, the man who hated you for ten harrowing years. For that fact, you should hate me and Daryl should tell me out to graze.”Moacyr is moved, “Don't say that, niece...”“And now I'm going to have another cousin who's going to cause trouble for my boyfriend's sister-in-law. I'm sure she will demand that I support her, while Pam will demand that I support the Chaves side.”Moacyr narrows his eyes, “You're not obligated to take either side, Diane!”Josias takes advantage of Moacyr's statement, “Exactly, Diane. You and Daryl can date peacefully and nothing bad will happen. As for Melissa, I know her very well and she will be reasonable.”Moacyr agrees, “Melissa has

Josias tells Angela that she needs to be prepared for the bonus and burden of being the next Mrs. Rocha.Gustavo clears his throat, “Excuse me, gentlemen, I need to go to work.”“Have a good journey, Gus,” Angela says goodbye to him.Josias nods and Gustavo leaves.Angela takes a deep breath, “Are you going to tell me what the attributes are for such an important placement in society?”Josias smiles slightly, “First, you need to love Mr. Rocha. Is that possible?”Angela's eyes are shining, “Oh... Josias, what question is that?”Josias chuckles, “Well, that's what I thought. Second, you will be the target of the tabloids and Maggiezine. Can you handle the pressure from the media and High Society?”“Of course I do, let them try to intimidate me. You will be surprised.” Angela adopts a confident tone.“And the most important thing is that the humiliation done by Katherine is not repeated on your part.”Angela does the Girl Scout gesture, “Deal!”“Okay, Angela, so we can ask Maggiezine to

Josias is now in the presidential room watching the upcoming projects created by Octavio and his group of architects. They analyze a floor plan stretched out on the desk. The drawing is of an apartment building.“We can take the same model, make some color changes, and apply them to different projects built in different cities,” Octavio comments excitedly.“Absolutely, Octavio.” Josias nods in wonder, “I still don't understand why I'm surprised at you.”“You've been repeating that since we met.” Octavio laughs.“Well, for me these projects are all approved. I hope Rocha Hotel makes enough money to help us.”“And how is your mother as the hotel manager?”“Do you believe she has done a good job?” Josias happily comments, “Madam was born to such an important position. And to top it all off, she keeps her busy so she doesn't plot against the Freire family.”Octavio purses his lips, “Do you think your stepfather won't try anything?”Josias waggles his index finger, “This year there's nothi

At Simeon's house, the awkward situation continued. Dora is surprised by William's unexpected return.“Mother, you still haven't answered me.” William insists aimlessly, “Do you hate me for sweeping the rubbish off my feet?”Dora manages to utter the words, “Of course not, son! You know I love you!”“Excellent!” William enters without waiting for an invitation, “So we're fine. When does Caio get home from school?”William goes to sit on the couch, but Dora grabs him by the shoulder, “Hold on, William! Let's talk! What's this about disappearing for months without telling all of us?”William grins evilly, “You mean you missed me? I thought Josias was going to convince you guys to hate me.”“Josias never said anything about it, that's your imagination!”“Okay, I needed to clear my head. Has Pamela ever stolen my son?”“She couldn't act without you around.”William sighs, “She thinks she'll have me around to rub the deed in my face.”“Son, allow me to call your father. Let's talk calmly.”

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.

But the princess is Carol,” Mary responded, striking a serious pose.Melissa and Rodrigo laughed heartily. Mary is something else...“Rod, how has it been managing the café in your father’s absence?” Melissa asked seriously.Rodrigo served a baked chicken pastry with ketchup to Mary. “I'm getting by, Melissa. 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?

Chapter 3146 We Need to Talk - Dad
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

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
