Building My Life Chapter 1668 Street Saleswoman
After the exams, Dr. Silvana is elated. Melissa captures her good mood.“Doctor... By your face...”“Congratulations, Melissa! You are indeed pregnant! How is it that the morning sickness still hasn't set in?”“They'll probably show up now.” Melissa stands up, “Oh Lord, I'm expecting a baby from Kelvin Mountain!”“Congratulations, Melissa.” Silvana squeezes her hand, “Your hubby is handsome and healthy, I hope the good genes pass on to your son or daughter.”“God hear you, doctor! And thank you so much for everything!”Dr. Silvana holds out the brown envelope to her. Melissa hugs the doctor, barely holding on with happiness, and says goodbye already with tears in her eyes.******At Crystal Blue, the conversation remains tense between Daryl and Kelvin.“Daryl, stop calling Josias's other sons 'bastards'.”“Am I telling a lie?” Daryl counters with a sarcastic smile, “They were born out of holy matrimony. One of them caused the divorce, and Melissa suffered greatly from it. Glad she met
Building My Life Chapter 1669 Solving Problems with Josias
Tuesday. Maggie is instructing the nanny on how to take care of Henrique.“Any more questions, Cleide?”“No, ma'am.” Cleide nods with a helpful smile.“Great, here's my phone in case you need it. I'll be back at lunchtime for you to eat and rest.”Maggie hands Henrique over to her. Henrique is already big and walking, but the ladies insist on picking him up.“Whoa! How heavy he is!” Cleide jokes.“Time passes. I'm getting old.” Maggie responds between giggles.“Imagine how I am!” Bernardo approaches, “I hope to be able to witness the graduation of my heir.”“You will surely witness this.” Cleide says, “And the college will be journalism.”“Better journalism than traveling sales,” Bernardo grumbles.Maggie is embarrassed by the comment, “Ehr... That's all, Cleide, thank you.”Cleide leaves with Henrique after Maggie kisses her son on the cheek.“No need to spoil the mood by commenting on the street vendor.”“Do you want us to have a meeting condemning her presence?” Bernardo worries.M
Building My Life Chapter 1670 The Natural Order of Commerce
At the entrance of Marçal Publishing, Bernardo and Maggie find Shirley again selling her butter cookies to the company's employees. Even the security guards at the entrance who were supposed to expel her surrendered to the taste of the delicacy.“Thank you very much, young man.” Shirley greets them mockingly, “Oh, good morning? Do you want a bag of shortbread cookies?”“Which of these does not contain potassium chloride?” Maggie asks bitterly.Shirley just laughs, “This daughter of mine was always good-natured.”Bernardo is short and direct, “The point is this, my mother-in-law: Josias Rocha has determined that you must sell this crap at the entrance of the Vargas Building. It seems that the people at Rocha Constructions miss this delicacy.” The word 'delicacy' came out with irony.Shirley breaks the wry smile, “They miss my cookies, but not me?”“You got the message.” Maggie warns her, “If you refuse to sell to more customers and expand your sales, then that means you're only here ou
Building My Life Chapter 1671 Caio Wants to Help
Harold and Wallace are furious at the prospect of Vera showing up at their house at any moment.“This is absurd! We need to call the police!” Wallace states shaking with rage.“But on what charge would we order her arrest?” Harold scratches his chin, “Should I use the revolver?”“Mr. Freire,” Beto's voice trembles, “I want to take this opportunity and ask you not to go to that extreme. Please, don't kill my sister.”“Mr. Reis..."“You can call me Beto, or Roberto.”“My young Roberto, your sister has done a tremendous amount of harm in our lives, and apparently, she won’t stop until she sees me dead.”Wallace hugs his father tightly, “You're not going to die, Dad. I forbid you!”“But how will my heart take so much stress?” Harold questions him, “I won't put up it, just like Teodoro couldn't bear it.”Beto lumps in his throat, “Mr. Freire, if Vera shows up here, you can call the police and accuse her of disturbing the peace in the neighborhood. But please, hide the gun from Mrs. Freire.

Diane took the liberty of turning the living room radio back on. As Metallica's song "Hero of the Day" sets in the living room, she's calling Maggie.On the other side, in her office, Maggie answers the call, “Hello?”“Maggie, this is Diane, your future sister-in-law.”Maggie smiles, “I already consider you part of the family. What is it, Diane?”“Are you aware that Melissa is pregnant?”“Yes, my brothers informed me yesterday.”“It seems that Will Campos is not joyful with the good news. He said Kelvin raped Melissa just like in the 19th century and now she is pregnant against her will.”Maggie rages and punches the desk, “What an imbecile! I don't know how Melissa still puts up with this irresponsible person! And to think he was a famous soccer player ten years ago...”“He failed as a soccer player and he failed as a member of the Executive Board of Rocha Constructions...” Diane still has questions in her mind.Maggie notices this, “Diane, do you still have any questions?”“Don't be
Building My Life Chapter 1673 Kind of Unexpected Visit
Wednesday. William and Caio are getting ready, the father going to work, and the son going to school.“Today will be my last day at the warehouse, son.” William excitedly announces, “I’ll resign to start building our store.”“Have you decided whether to be an ice cream parlor or a pizzeria?” Caio asks as he puts on his sneakers.“Which do you prefer?” William turns on the radio and Andrea Bocelli's song “Vivo Per Lei” fills the living room.“How chic we are with Italian music.” Caio jokes, “I prefer pizzeria.”“We would have to hire a pizza maker. And the store will always be open at night.” William warns him.“Great, so I can help you,” Caio assures him with a smile.Someone knocks on the door. Caio smiles in anticipation.“Who will be?” William opens the door and immediately wants to close it in Josias's face, “NO! GET OUT!”Josias holds the doorjamb masterfully, “Don't insult me, William!”“GET OUTTA HERE, DAMN IT, NO ONE CALLED YOU!”Caio gets up, “Actually, father, I was the one
Building My Life Chapter 1674 We Have Job Openings
William turns off the radio angrily and doesn't know whether to beat Caio for calling out to his enemy.“Caio, why and what did you call Josias, eh? By what authority, who allowed you to step over me, challenge me in such an outrageous way—”Josias cuts the melodrama, “Stop it, what an endless sentence! Will, Caio wants the best for you.”“GET OUT, you're in my house! I don’t step foot in that damn mansion.”Josias, like any businessman, doesn't want to waste time, “William, Caio came to me wanting your business to be built by Rocha Constructions. I feel kind of offended that YOU didn’t come to me.”William's eyes are bloodshot, “You mean I'm obligated to hire you, you worm?”“In a way, yes. Like it or not, I was married to your sister and you have two nephews. Caio is also my nephew, we are all from the same family!”“Cut that talk!”“And I won't even go into details about the fact that Rocha Constructions is the best civil construction company. In three months your pizzeria or ice c
Building My Life Chapter 1675 Wrongdoings at the Rocha Hotel
Caio is flattered when Josias says he deserves to work at Rocha Constructions.“Thank you, Uncle Josias, but I prefer to work with my father.”“Well done, you idiot!” William cheers, thinking that Caio has offended Josias.But neither Caio meant to offend, nor did Josias feel offended.Josias declares, “I'll send you the quote, William. And don't even think about turning it down.”“OF COURSE I’LL REFUSE!”Josias breaks his smile, “If you refuse, I will take steps to ruin your business. Don't you want to leave a legacy for Caio? The Bento brothers remain loyal to me.”“DAMN YOU!” William screams at the top of his lungs.“That's what I thought. Bye, Caio, keep studying to be someone in life.”Josias withdraws, ever mighty and sovereign. William punches the bookcase, nearly knocking the radio over.“Dad, calm down! What can Tiago Bento do wrong?”William doesn't respond. He just imagines Tiago and Igor setting fire to the pizzeria with him and the customers still inside, screaming and ch

Chapter 3330 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,
Chapter 3228 Sarah Shouldn’t Have Let Her In
At the General Hospital, Diane was causing a scene in the hallway while Felipe was being treated in one of the rooms. “What is happening? Someone please give me answers!!” Matthew approached the desperate woman. “Mrs. Mountain, we ask for your calm. Your son is not in life-threatening condition.” “He should never have been in this situation to begin with!” Diane shouted. Eugenio approached. “Mrs. Mountain, we’re very sorry. I tried to call Suzy, but she is at an appointment with Cardozo Perfumes.” “Why is she at my brother-in-law’s company? More investments?” Diane was taken aback. “Perhaps,” Eugenio narrowed his eyes. “She didn’t tell me exactly what she intended to do.” “Oh, this situation is killing me. Doctor, how is he?” “He is sleeping under the effect of sedatives. We are waiting for a room to become available to conduct some tests to understand why he isn’t waking up,” Matthew informed her. “Well, if my boy isn’t going to wake up for now, I need to reach my husband.
Chapter 3227 Business First, Boyfriend Later
At the Rocha Hotel, Luís couldn’t stand being called “Spanish Stallion” for the umpteenth time and gave Felipe the biggest beating he had ever received in his life. However, Eugenio was not in favor of violence and quickly called using his desk phone. “Security, there’s a fight happening in my office!” Eugenio’s euphoric voice jolted Luís out of his trance. When he came to, Felipe was unconscious, with a bleeding nose and cuts on his face. “LUÍS, look what you’ve done!” Eugenio panicked. “How am I going to defend you from this?” “I couldn’t control myself, Eugenio! You know how much I hate that nickname!” Luís shouted passionately. “It doesn’t matter! If you can’t keep your self-control, you’re going to get into serious trouble like right now!” Eugenio pushed Luís away from Felipe as he spoke. He knelt down and checked Felipe’s vital signs by holding his wrist. “At least he’s STILL alive,” Eugenio said sarcastically. The security team arrived in record time. “Here we are, ma
Chapter 3226 The Nickname as a Trigger
At Crystal Blue, the restaurant was still closed, but Suzy was there at the bar, having a drink in celebration. Diane was the one who prepared two shots, both toasting. “A toast to success and personal fulfillment, my future daughter-in-law!” They both drank. Suzy took a deep breath. “What a relief! It’s so good to be victorious!” “It really is a wonderful feeling.” Diane nodded. “Now, do you think the annoying people will finally leave you alone?” “No, of course not! It seems the war is going to intensify even more.” Suzy replied excitedly. “And you are confident that you can fight, win?” “Of course! I have the truth on my side.” Suzy took another sip. “It all started with Sofia discussing salary increases in front of the employees.” “I feel like she did that on purpose, huh?” Diane raised her eyebrows suspiciously. “Yes, I see it that way, too, after thinking it through. What a coincidence that Sofia heated up the discussion just as I showed up warning against making too ma
Chapter 3225 Counterattack Effect
In the next issue of ‘Maggiezine,’ Suzy Cogo was the big sensation, gracing the cover with a smiling, confident photo, hands on her hips, and a stance that suggested she was ready for battle. The article attracted the attention of thousands, with sales and online access tripling in spreadsheets and counters sales. Whereas Suzy had previously reacted with fury and rage, now she danced in the kitchen without knocking over the table or breakfast. Jake improvised dance steps with his sister while Eugenio read the article with exaggerated pride. “‘Therefore, it was never my intention to imply that I don’t care about my employees’ salaries. I support administrative discussions to check if Vaztrans has the appropriate funds to fulfill our promises.’ Wow, niece, with that one sentence, you dismantled the whole narrative!” “Didn’t I tell you, uncle? The journalist was very competent.” Jake remarked, “He used his fingers to do good, unlike that other guy.” Eugenio closed the magazine and
Chapter 3224 João Paulo Promised to Be Different
Melissa appeared in João Paulo’s office. The journalist and brother-in-law was surprised by her visit.“Melissa! Hello, so good to see you!”“João Paulo, we need to talk urgently.” Melissa closed the door.“I see.” João Paulo’s smile faded. “Josias sent you to scold me.”“Believe me, Josias is trying his best not to come here and give you a few slaps.” Melissa approached his desk.“Why would he bother? I’m fine.” João Paulo placed his hands behind his neck.“No, you’re reigniting a war that you won’t be able to handle.” Melissa warned him lovingly. “Josias won’t protect you if Suzy Cogo asks for compensation again.”“That girl wants to get rich at my expense?” João Paulo scoffed.“No. You’re the one giving her the chance. Stop these articles, João Paulo, and she will leave you alone.”João Paulo grew more serious. “She and her boyfriend came here, insulted me, I was slapped, and insulted my wife. With my father’s death, I couldn’t take my revenge.”“But you’re back, with the chance to
Chapter 3223 Henrique Is Eighteen Years Old
Suzy talks to Maggie about the article she wants to write for Maggiezine.Alone in her office, Suzy took the opportunity to express her opinion, “Maggie, you should be congratulated for Henrique.”“What’s up with my baby?” Maggie raised her eyebrows.“BABY?” Suzy laughed heartily. “Come on, girl! Your son is all grown up, sporting a beard! Your husband said that while I watched him serve coffee to me. Is he going to inherit Marçal Publishing Company?”Maggie smiled like every proud mother. “Yes, he is. And you’re right. No matter how much I still see my son as a baby, he’s eighteen now, reaching legal age. We have many plans for him...”Suzy was surprised. Henrique is already eighteen?“Well, let’s get to the main topic.” Suzy shook her head. “Can you save a page where I can tell some truths to that crowd that hates me?”Maggie smiled mischievously. “I might even give you a cover article, my dear!”“I would appreciate that opportunity. We’re at war, Maggie. I need to clear my name.” S
Chapter 3222 What Motivated Luís
Josias and William entered the latter’s office, while the former huffed and held back from punching someone. “Hey, hey, hey...” William closed the door before Josias decided to leave. “Don’t be mad about what Daryl said.” “I think I’m more outraged by the fact that he called João Paulo ‘half-brother.’” Josias clenched his fists and took a deep breath. “You know I hate that term, William!” “Yes, since the ‘80s.” William chuckled. “We’ve been on this life road for a long time, huh?” Josias calmed down and smiled slightly. “That’s true... you were a teenager, fifteen years old, now you’re forty-seven.” “And my son is married; soon I’ll have grandkids to spoil.” William sighed. “Josias, I don’t think I’ve ever thanked you enough for that.” “Thank me?” Josias gestured modestly, dismissing the idea. “Don’t be like that!” William insisted. “If it weren’t for you taking care of Caio, can you imagine what he would be today? Maybe he’d be in jail for getting involved with organized crime
