Building My Life Chapter 1638 I Am Not Angry With Her
Beto and Teresa decide to cautiously tell Rosemary what is happening.“Rosemary, we are very angry about what your mother did.” Beto patiently explains, “Therefore, we want you to be spared our grief.”“Why can't Mom talk to me? Does she hate me too?” Rosemary asks not understanding.“No, I don't think she hates you.” Not even Beto could answer that. Why is Pamela so eager to talk to Rosemary? Maternal love or desire to annoy Beto?“It’s because we don't want you to get hurt.” Teresa helps her boyfriend, “For example, in the letter, she talks about wanting you to live with her without Pedro. Do you want to separate from your little brother?”“No, I don’t want.” Rosemary wiggles, “Mom could come back if she wants to be with me.”“Exactly, daughter.” Beto smiles, “Your grandmother is in Victoria to talk to her and make her understand.”“OK.”“And the next time you get a letter, give it to us,” Teresa remembers this detail.Rosemary nods, and calmer, she continues to eat breakfast.*****
Building My Life Chapter 1639 One Child Less
Teresa says goodbye to Beto and takes the children to school. Their father waves goodbye and sends his girlfriend a kiss with his hand.Alone, Beto looks at his father's portrait and smiles at him, “You sure would approve of Tess, Dad. I remember how I pissed you off for marrying Pamela, even though this crazy wedding was part of the plan. I blame Vera for your death, but I feel like I had a 40% share.”After this mea culpa, Beto goes to the radio and turns it on. Metallica's song “Until it Sleeps” fills the lobby as tradition dictates.Some tenants show up to pay the monthly rent and Beto takes care of that. As this occurs, Diane arrives from behind with suitcases and is startled by the sight of the owner of the building.After serving the tenants, Beto visualizes Diane and smiles, “We need to talk, my dear.”“You can undo that perverted smile.” Diane warns him menacingly, “You always wanted to bed me. Good thing that nanny snared you.”Beto continues with a charming smile, “Are you

But not everything is happiness. While everyone rejoices that Bernardo is on the mend, the patient is unsure if he will actually survive with Shirley standing before him!Shirley has no sense of the ridiculous and behaves as if nothing that happened was her fault, “Bernie, I'm glad to see you well. I didn't want these things to happen.”“What are you doing here?” Bernardo tries to say, “Out!”“Bernie, don't get carried away.” Shirley does the opposite, moving closer to him, “Look at the monitor registering an increase in heart rate. Try to relax, you need to get out of this.”But Bernardo is tossing and struggling on the bed, horrified at the approach of his cursed mother-in-law.“No, no... out... hel—”Shirley covers Bernardo's mouth before he yells for help, “Schi! Don't worry, Bernie. You'll get out of this and get on with your life, without Maggie, and Henrique. You're going to have a new wife... Me! Finally, you will marry someone your age. And after the wedding, you're going to

Everyone who went to visit Bernardo had their hearts aching with Dr. Farias warning that he didn't need heart surgery. Is it because... he didn't have time?But Dr. Farias responds in a tender voice, “We don't need surgery because the patient has stabilized.”Maggie kneels crying before Dr. Farias in gratitude.

My mother couldn't kill him.”Shirley widens her eyes, “What did you say?”Dr. Farias adds what Maggie meant, “Listen, ma'am, when I walked into the room, the patient was about to have an aneurysm. When Mr. and Mrs. Mountain were with the patient, he was normal and calm. You must have done something to irritate him.”“We'll find out when he leaves the room,” Kelvin responds menacingly.Shirley swallows hard and decides to say no more. After all, what she says c
Building My Life Chapter 1642 Gustavo Gives up the Fight
Gustavo introduces himself to Josias in our hero's library. While Josias is calm in his armchair with a copy of Stendhal in hand, Gustavo is frowning and indisposed.“My friend, if you already have that face, maybe it's not a good idea for us to talk,” Josias warns him.“Don't make fun of me.” Gustavo growls, “I came to talk about my friend Angie.”Josias produces a sarcastic smile, “Let's put the cards on the table. Angie is not and has never been your friend.”“What do you mean?” Gustavo frowns even more.“I don't know if Angela ever saw you that way, but at least you see her as more than a friend. I would say you were always in love with her.”Gustavo neither denies nor confirms, he remains silent.“Your silence is deafening.” Josias mocks, “And it only confirms my thesis. So sometimes I think that David is not my son.”“David is your son, you bastard!” Gustavo barks, “Don't try to escape responsibility!”“I don't escape. On the contrary, once David was introduced to me as my son,

Maggie enters the room that used to belong to Caio and that is now being occupied by Bernardo. She brings a tray containing a snack for her husband. Bernardo is better, leaning against the head of the bed, and receiving the tray with all the love in the world.“Thank you, dear. I'm giving you too much trouble, aren't I?”“No way, I'm trying to be the wife who helps her husband.” Maggie lovingly responds, “So, how are you feeling?”“Much better after knowing the whole truth,” Bernardo responds while helping himself to toast with honey.“Coffee is low in sugar, honey.” Maggie tries not to get into the thorny subject.“We're going to have to talk about this sooner or later, honey.” Bernardo sensed her intention, “Why not now?”“Because I don't want to see Dr. Farias so soon,” Maggie responds with a pout.Bernardo chuckles, “Don't be upset. I'm the one who should be upset that I've fallen for yet another Mrs. Mountain’s trick. It feels like I don't really love you.”Maggie doesn't want to
Building My Life Chapter 1644 We Thank You for Your Dedication
In Melissa's office, Jack Motta appears well-groomed, hair styled in gel, jeans smelling new and with the dye very fresh, and socks smelling like fabric softener. The woody scent caused a feast in Melissa's nostrils.“Wow, what is all this production due to?”“I need to impress the owner and head writer on the soap I'm going to work on,” Jack responds jokingly as he sits down.Melissa promptly extends his character spec sheet, “Here, Jack, take this for you to read and study the ‘Matias’ character. There we have all his previous information so you can dive right into the interpretation. We have the feelings, the wants, what he wants to achieve, and who he's going to interact with directly.”Jack marvels at everything so meticulously prepared, “Wow, Mrs. Mountain! How do you manage to prepare this with such care? I didn't know I had to go through all this.”“You know how it is, we need to create believable, flesh-and-blood characters, believable enough for the viewer to forget a little

You will be able to please the customers.” Daryl smiles encouragingly.“Then allow me to try again.” Diane prepares the ingredients for the third attempt.As Diane prepares another dose, Shirley strides into the Crystal Blue, looking desperate.“You really abandoned your mother, huh!” Shirley complains, “Because of that, I couldn't give you horrible news!”“Did Bernardo have a relapse?” Daryl asks, “Did he go back to the hospital?”“No, thank God.” Shirley sighs, “But your sister and sister-in-law won't let me into the penthouse for more details.”“And I can't blame them, can I, Mom?” Daryl scolds her lightly, “Tell me the bad news.”“Yesterday I was fired from Rocha Constructions!

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.

Melissa and Mary visit the Mountain Café.“A guava juice for me, Mr. Mountain!” Mary requested, smiling sweetly.“Of course, my princess!” Rodrigo replied, thinking Mary was very adorable. “Neil will make a delicious cup for you.”“Thank you. 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

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
