Building My Life Chapter 1594 A New Opportunity
In Gustavo's apartment, he is afraid to go to work in a role other than that of a stocker or packer at the supermarket. After he was released from the police station and William fulfilled his promise to withdraw the complaint, Angela told him about the condition.Now he's walking into the apartment with the bag of bread and the new issue of Maggiezine. His fear doubled with the cover of the magazine. The radio is playing the song “Scream”, by Michael and Janet Jackson.But Angela doesn't care about fearful men, “You can stop with that fearful face. You'll do just fine in the supermarket store. Who knows, maybe this will help you become more muscular and attractive...” She bites her lower lip, imagining a ripped and naked Gustavo.Gustavo gets angry, “Do you only think about immoralities, woman? Something tells me I'm walking into a trap just trying to protect you.”“I didn't ask you to lie about the car theft!” Angela picks up the bag of bread, “You were supposed to deny everything.”
Building My Life Chapter 1595 We'll Talk
Wallace realizes that he has something wrong with asking about Uélton when he sees everyone upset.“Did I drop the ball?” he asks fearfully.“Not you, son.” Isabel replies, annoyed, “Your brother decided to be the prodigal's brother in reverse.”“Why doesn't he want to forgive me?” Wallace narrows his eyes, “He wasn't directly affected by my crimes.”“I think Uélton, as a father, fears that Reuben could be misled,” Josias answers wisely.“This is nonsense.” Wallace defends himself, “I won’t teach my son to violate his wife on their honeymoon! In fact, I hope I never have to touch this subject again. I...” Wallace feels a lump in his throat, “I need to talk seriously with my little brother.”Isabel's eyes were watery, “It's amazing, Wally. Someone else would have expressed hatred and rancor, but you willingly want to clear up the misunderstanding.”“This is how it has to be, Mom.” Wallace answers determinedly, “I wasted nine years of my life away from you guys. I need to make up for th

Gustavo enters Beto's office. His little radio is playing “Secret Garden” by Bruce Springsteen. Beto is sitting, leaning back against the back of the chair, with his eyes closed, enjoying the song.For a moment, Gustavo didn't think his situation would be so drastic, but Beto noticed his presence and opened his eyes, “Hello, Gustavo! Do you want some water, some coffee?”“No, Mr. Reis. Thank you very much.” Gustavo closes the door and approaches him, “Well, here I am.”“That's great.” Beto straightens up in his chair, “Shall we go to your new job? Orders from Mr. Ramos. He was very upset by the news of your arrest...”Gustavo feels his heart sink, “If Mr. Ramos wishes, I can explain to him—”Beto gestures with a mischievous smile, “No, let's not bother Mr. Ramos. He assigned me a manager to take care of the dirty work.”Gustavo understood that the ‘dirty work’ would mean taking care of his situation and clenched his fists in anger.Beto gets up, goes to the door, opens it, and calls s

Hours later, Harold and Wallace are waiting for their test results at the General Hospital.“Wallace, are you okay with your mother calling you by the forbidden nickname?” Harold takes a risk while they are helping themselves to coffee in the lounge.“Who said calling me Wally was forbidden?” Wallace chuckles.“Uélton.” Harold takes a sip, “He said we can't remind you of the bitches who called you that name.”“That's true, but I don't want to be a coward.” Wallace helps himself too, “I need to remember the past from time to time so I don't repeat the mistakes in my future.”“That's nice.” Harold smiles, “So if all goes well, will you take the job Josias offers?”“Looks like we’ll have spots on Uélton’s team, right?” Wallace takes a sip, “Melissa's uncle is moving to Victoria, and Seu Simeon is approaching retirement age. Yes, I think I will.”Harold nods, but he doesn't want to say that Josias will probably put Wallace on another team, not the same one as Uélton, so there's no Indian

Flávia meets Isabel in the corridors of LCN. She has a victorious smile and her mother-in-law already understands what this is about.“No need to tell me: you got the house!”“I got it, Izzy!” Flavia exclaims exultantly, “We're going to live in Green Park!”The two ladies hug each other, excited.After the hug, Isabel sighs, “Now I just need to hear about my son. If he doesn't have any disease contracted from prison, Uélton will have one less reason to show prejudice.”Flavia loses some of the joy, “Izzy, I've been trying hard to instill common sense in his head. What else should I do?”“We must bend the knee and pray to the Lord, may Uélton become reasonable.” Isabel raises her hands to heaven as if she was a prophetess, “And let the harlots not return to the city.”“From what I've heard from Vera Reis, she will die of STDs before she can even think about coming back,” Flavia responds contemptuously.“Continuing the matter, Josias offered Wally a job. With your dad moving, there's on

Flávia and Uélton meet again at Harold's house to celebrate the acquisition of the new house.Isabel was pouring glasses of mango juice for everyone. The living room radio was playing “Vulnerable” by Roxette.“Do you have cake, grandma?” Reuben asks sweetly.Isabel laughs, “Grandma has carrot cake in the kitchen, do you want it?”Flavia stops him, “No, Izzy, this will spoil his appetite.”Uélton, as always, releases and allows everything, “Ah, honey, we're going to eat right here. Let our heir have fun just for today.”“Thanks, dad!” Reuben runs to the kitchen.Flávia surrenders to the men in her life and smiles again, “And the best of all is that the house is not far from here. Just three blocks away.”Wallace asks, “Does the house need renovation?”Uélton turns to him, “No, bro, my wife didn't choose a ramshackle house.”Flávia notices the discomfort and tries to fix it, “Well, there are some walls that need to be repainted.”Harold offers, “Leave it to me. And Wallace can help.”Re
Building My Life Chapter 1601 Marital Problems
1996Josias is taking the elevator up to the Mountain Penthouse. His face was serious and worried, trying to prepare himself to bring up a difficult subject to deal with. A personal and family affair, not exactly his family.When he got into the hallway, he walked unhurriedly to the double doors and pressed the bell. The residents of the penthouse already knew he was coming.With that, the door was opened. Melissa greeted him with the same concern visible on her face, “Good morning, Josias. Glad you can help us.”“I don't know exactly what to do.” Josias enters. He noticed that the penthouse had undergone a renovation.The wall with the radio and phone table is now orange, and the zebra-striped sofas have been replaced by more modern sand-colored ones.On one of the sofas, Maggie is still in her nightgown and pink robe, with no makeup, looking like she has the flu, but in fact, she's been crying. Kelvin is sitting in the armchair that used to be Josias's.“Good morning, everyone.” Jos

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,
