Building My Life Chapter 1744 Josias Is Told of the Truth
Later, after Beto returns from the bus station, he is in the office at the Teodoro building, conferring with Josias and Tiago.“Very well, gentlemen.” Josias takes the reins of the meeting, “Time to let me know exactly what's going on in town. Why was I not informed about the supposedly poisoned candies?”Beto responds, “Josias, I didn't want to bother you. You've been so busy with your company and the construction of the new headquarters... I needed to take control of the situation.”“I'm not saying you're incapable, Beto.” Josias clarifies, “I want to congratulate you for taking the initiative to protect your family.”“I know you always want to help.” Beto smiles, “The children are very fond of you, calling you Uncle.”“It must be because I was there from the birth of all of them,” Josias responds with a smile.“Anyway, Josias,” Tiago clears his throat, “There's something you need to know.”Josias stares at Tiago intently.“I had a private conversation with Renan Vasconcelos a while
Building My Life Chapter 1745 Distrusting the Host
A week later, Beto received the first letter from his children. He smiles and his eyes fill with tears.“So, dear, how are they?” Teresa approaches her beloved.They are in one of the living rooms of the Rocha Mansion as guests. Beto delights in the soft upholstery of the sofa.Beto responds, “They ate the expected chocolate cake, Grandpa Raymond welcomed them with hugs and kisses, Grandma Cristina and Seu Moacyr visited them too... and Mom Pamela is working as an executive secretary.”The last part of the letter left a bitter taste in Beto's mouth. He is certain that Pamela is actually her boss's lover and that her position as secretary is merely a cover.Teresa has the same feeling, “Well, the kids are at Grandpa’s house, right?”“Yes, they are re-meting Junior. The boy must be gigantic.” Beto scratches his chin, “Sixteen years old, older than Caio.”“Can I read the letter?”“Sure.” Beto passes the letter to his girlfriend.But when Teresa picks up the letter, she notices Beto's som
Building My Life Chapter 1746 The Love Nest?
At the Rocha Mansion, Teresa wants to know what Beto means by suspecting Josias.“Darling, you're not thinking of making up rumors and gossip about the man who saved our lives, are you?”“These aren’t rumors.” Beto responds frowning and slightly rude, “I overheard the conversation, and was present when they mentioned the loan shark.”“The loan shark?” Teresa is confused.“That guy who ordered to collect the debt from Josias’s father and the henchmen ended up killing him.” Beto responds, “Tiago Bento said that Renan Vasconcelos was the criminal's henchman, but when he was killed, Renan fled to Victoria... and now he's back as an industrialist.”Teresa also feels strange, “And this has to do with Josias?”“That's what I didn't understand... Mr. Bento also said that he recommended Secretary Ernesto to flee. As far as I knew, Ernesto and Lilian went to take care of her mother who had cancer. Was that then a lie?”“Ernesto also knows Renan Vasconcelos...?” Teresa covers her mouth with her
Building My Life Chapter 1747 A New Love for Isabel?
At Rocha Mansion, Katherine and Teresa sunbathe on lounge chairs by the pool. The sun is excellent, and maids serve them orangeade. Katherine is wearing sunglasses.Not far from them, a portable radio plays “Love Won't Wait” by Gary Barlow.Teresa asks, “What is happening in the 90s? Countless groups are breaking up. Did you know this singer was from Take That?”Katherine gasps, “No, impossible! What a horror, our adolescence is falling apart...”“Well, I collect the records they released as memorabilia.” Teresa smiles.“So, Tess, are you enjoying staying at the mansion? Josias nailed it when he built this place.”The mention of Josias makes Teresa remember the conversation she had with Beto. Would it be wise...?“Kate, what do you know about the loan shark?” Teresa asks without thinking.Katherine removes her sunglasses, “I don't want my face to be marked. Did you mention the moneylender, the evil one who killed my late father-in-law?”Teresa wiggles, “Believe me, my dear, nobody mis
Building My Life Chapter 1748 The Nightclub Owner
At the police station, Beto is arguing with Amoreira about the clowning going on at the police station. Both are in the detective's office.“Mr. Amoreira, how are the investigations into Renan Vasconcelos going?”“The sergeant stuck them in that place!” Amoreira barks, pounding on the desk piled high with copies of Maggiezine.Beto snorts, “There's no way, the madman will end up kidnapping and killing my dear sister. And the worst of all is that my life is also in danger when he thinks I am her lover!”Amoreira purses his lips in disgust, “I thought you were Miss Reis's brother.”“Of course we are siblings; so it indicates how much Mr. Vasconcelos is sick and retarded! He cannot live in a society! How did he manage to be an industrialist?”“According to what I read in Maggiezine, he took over the company built by their parents, who are now in their advanced age.”Beto tries to reconcile this information with what he knows, “So, he ran away from here after the loan shark died and took
Building My Life Chapter 1749 Permission from the Mayor
Vera is sitting comfortably on the sofa while listening to the song “Cantare é d'Amore”, by Amedeo Minghi. Someone outside claps and she gets up to see who it is.Through the living room window, she smiles, “Beto! To what do I owe the honor of your visit?”“Sister, we need to talk urgently. It's time you knew some truths.”Vera worries and hurriedly opens the door for Beto, “Get in quick, bro. I don't want Renan's spies to see you.”“Do you think they will dare to do so?” Beto enters and Vera closes the door.“You never know with these freaks. So what's the big news?"Beto takes a deep breath. He's sweaty and his face shows big brother's concern, “I just came from the police station. Do you know why Mr. Vasconcelos 'saved' you from the nightclub and you were never bothered again?"“Because the imbecile thought he was going to marry me,” Vera speaks with disdain.“It's more than that, Vera. Renan Vasconcelos owns the nightclub.”Vera is stunned to the extreme. What?******At the polic
Building My Life Chapter 1750 Deep and Detailed Explanation
At Simeon's house, Vera turns off the radio so she can talk better with Beto.“Beto, please, don't lie to me...” She's shocked, she doesn't know where to turn.Beto leads Vera to the sofa as if she were an elderly woman, “Sit here, little sis. I know this comes as a shock to you, but unfortunately, that was the result of the Amoreira investigation.”“At least some law enforcement official decided to do something.” Vera says ironically, “For a moment I thought Renan was above the law.”“We're going to defeat this guy, Vera, and everything will go back to normal. After all, it ties in with some of the stuff I've heard. For example, while Renan was staying at the Rocha Hotel, there was an unusual influx of prostitutes.”“You think he owns a prostitution ring and I was part of it without knowing it?”Beto crosses his arms, “Vera, how did you get into this mess?”“I read the wanted ads and found the ad looking for a nightclub employee,” Vera answers simply.Beto narrows his eyes, “Just tha
Building My Life Chapter 1751 Matter of Your Interest
At Crystal Blue, the discussion continues between Renan and the Mountain brothers.Renan looks at the table kicked by Renan, “Poor table, Mr. Mountain.”“Don't worry about it. I kicked the table thinking I'd kick your head!” Kelvin blusters.“Should I take that as a threat?”Daryl walks over and tries to lead the freak out, “Mr. Vasconcelos, there is not the slightest reason for you to stay here. Please, leave.”“I just wanted to know how Melissa is doing!” Renan feels entitled to feel misunderstood, “Why do you think I want to hurt her?”“Because you insist on being around her when she doesn't want you,” Daryl responds sagely.“When she gets to know me better—”Kelvin can't take it anymore and punches the businessman, knocking him out.“KELVIN!” Daryl scolds him.“Looks like this asshole only understands this language, Daryl!” Kelvin exclaims, “We've been asking him to leave for ages, but he won't!”Renan wakes up from the temporary stupor and massages his sore chin, “Ouch... now the

Chapter 3210 Josias Junior in Action
At Vaztrans, William questioned Sofia about the company’s finances, which are now in order since her parents stopped interfering.“Uh, I think the explanation is simple. With my father no longer here, we don’t have that urge to prove we’re always the best public transportation company in the city.” Sofia sat face to face with him. “I remember my father would always freak out when people mocked the old bus models we had.”“Yeah, and he would waste money buying expensive buses that we couldn’t afford to maintain.” William accepted this explanation for now. “So, Sofia, you wouldn’t be offended if I said your father was just playing at being a manager?”Sofia made a face. “My father managed Vaztrans since its inception. I’m here to continue his legacy.”“I know you’ll do a good job.” William leaned back in his chair. “I just want us to keep things this way now that we’re in control.”Sofia crossed her arms. “Great. I hope that doesn’t mean any insinuation on your part – or from that littl
Chapter 3209 Time to Look for Other Girls
Vaztrans, morning. Brand new buses come in and out of the garage, with drivers and fare collectors smiling in their new uniforms. In William’s office (which used to belong to Olivia), he scratched his forehead while researching and checking the financial spreadsheets. Sofia, greeted like a diva by the staff, entered the office. “Good morning to you too! Have a good day at work!” She approached the desk. “Good morning, Will! What’s with that long face?” “I’m not making a long face. I’m making a face of someone who doesn’t understand this accounting,” William replied, still looking at the monitor. “What’s the problem? Are we broke again?” Sofia’s eyes widened. “No.” William finally looked at her, with a mischievous smile. “We have so much slack that we could pay off one of the installments of the loan we took from Josias if we wanted to.” Sofia continued with wide eyes. “Oh, that’s incredible, right?” William kept smiling. “Sofia, you’re not getting my astonishment. The point is
Chapter 3208 A Night in the Cell to Reflect
At Rocha Constructions, Josias and Alan faced a dilemma: should they start a war against the Borges brothers? Thierry noticed their initial hesitation. “If it’s too much for you two, forget it. J.J. and I will manage on our own. Maybe Daryl can help us.” The mention of Daryl made Josias react, “Wait a minute, Thierry. We never said we wouldn’t help you. On the contrary, I feel the same way: that truck was deliberately sent against the supermarket to cause that accident.” “Yeah, a way to force J.J. to choose between focusing on the farm or on Vasconcelos. No one but the Borges brothers was interested in that.” Thierry smiled slightly. “The problem is we have no proof.” Josias put his hands in his pockets. “The truck was on the street, there are no surveillance cameras nearby.” Alan asked, “But J.J. decided to stay with Vasconcelos, right?” “Exactly. That was our way of getting back at them.” Josias nodded. “So, our only form of investigation will be to observe how Reynaldo Borges
Chapter 3207 The Law Must Be Obeyed
Just out of spite, David was taken to the Happiness Slum police station, where Dylan was now interrogating him and pressing him against the wall. David was shaking while handcuffed, thinking he might have a chance to escape. “What is going on here? LET ME GO! This station is not equipped to handle my problems!” Dylan sat at the desk, keeping one of his subordinates nearby, standing by the door. “Oh really? It just so happens that it’s the opposite: Commissioner Tavares said he doesn’t want to see your face at the headquarters!” David was horrified by the remark. “What does that mean? We can’t allow such abuse! Call my dad immediately!” Dylan, grinning with delight, leaned back in his chair. “Mr. Souza, it was your father who ordered us to remove you from the Rocha Constructions building.” “That’s IMPOSSIBLE! My dad never ordered Alan’s arrest!” “Isn’t it because Alan Campos Rocha has never given the police any reason to detain him?” Dylan asked ironically. “And on what charges
Chapter 3206 Is Daniela Pregnant?
At the management office of Lafayette Supermarket, Thierry was signing a fat check for a member of the Cintra family. The man, who was the victim’s brother, was staring at everyone with disdain and arrogance. “You have to understand that we can no longer shop at this supermarket, right?” he kept saying. “My poor brother used to come here because the wine prices were cheaper, but now... we’re going to have to resort to the little store closer to home, even if it costs more!” Nadia was outraged. “Mr. Cintra, don’t be arrogant!” Mr. Cintra raised his chin at Nadia. “I can sue you for this too, you know?” “No, you can’t,” Thierry emphasized, tearing the check from the invoice and hastily extending it to him. “Take it and get out of our sight!” “You are in the wrong and still want to play the victim!” Mr. Cintra simply felt entitled to cluck. “Thank goodness my brother didn’t die! Otherwise, we would tear this crappy supermarket down! It was much better when the Ramos family ran this
Chapter 3205 At the Height of Despair
The next day, Daniela was talking to Dr. Matthew Hogan at General Hospital. “Alright, Daniela,” he said with a smile. “I hope we don't find anything serious in your tests.” “Could I... be pregnant?” Daniela asked in a whisper. Talking to Matthew inevitably reminded her of Silvana Hogan, his mother and a famous obstetrician. “My mother is now retired and enjoying the Bahamas,” Matthew said kindly. “If your test results indicate you’re expecting, we’ll refer you to the appropriate department.” “Thank you so much, Dr. Hogan!” Daniela extended her hand, and Matthew shook it. A few moments later, Daniela was walking through the corridors, thinking about the possibility of being pregnant. She even placed her right hand on her belly, already imagining herself carrying the heir of the Reis family. She smiled mischievously as she recalled the countless nights of passionate love where Pedro ravaged her mercilessly, only stopping when the alarm rang the next morning. How could she not
Chapter 3204 Someone is Not Feeling Well
Melissa worried about her parents' objection regarding the twins getting involved with their paternal family. "Mom, Dad, I understand your concern." Melissa broke the silence. "But in a way, they're right. I don't have the right to completely cut them off from Kelvin. Besides, they have another little brother." Dora looked at her wristwatch. "At this hour, Mary must be in the penthouse, keeping an eye on Anthony." "Oh, did they say they were going to do that?" Melissa smiled slightly. "Yes, someone texted them asking for it. Probably Kelvin," Simeon replied seriously. Dora explained, "Daughter, let's hope Daryl doesn't take advantage of the closeness to poison our grandchildren's minds." Melissa was alarmed. "What are you saying, Mom? I won't allow that!" "No, I know you won't allow it." Dora frowned. "That's why I hope you visit Kelvin and set some boundaries." "If I bring this up, I'll unintentionally be starting a stupid war," Melissa retorted. "They know their boundaries.
Chapter 3203 Long-Term Consequences
At Rocha Constructions, Sofia is eager to prove that she was right all along about Suzy. She leaned back against Alan again, wanting information. "Dear, before we were interrupted, you were saying something about me being right to be suspicious of Suzy Cogo. I knew that smartass was planning something!" Alan scratched the back of his neck. "I feel like she was the one Everaldo mentioned in the prophecy." Sofia's eyes lit up. "That's true! Suzy is the only one investing out there! Do you think she will want a slice of Rocha Constructions?" "I sincerely hope my dad doesn't agree to sell any shares. I won't do that. Better warn Caio." Alan became serious. "Well, I'll have to put up with her at Vaztrans." Sofia sighed, feeling discouraged. Alan turned to his wife with curiosity. "Speaking of which, dear, we haven't heard any news about Vaztrans being in trouble this year. Did you finally manage to control the spending?" Sofia looked confused. "Uh, I don't know what you're talking a

Sofia reacted, obviously pleased, when none other than her husband stated that she was right.Unable to resist any longer, she sat on Alan's lap and delivered THAT delicious, passionate kiss.When the kiss ended, Alan was perplexed, eyes wide."What was that for?" He asked, lost."You silly!" Sofia began to laugh. "This is your reward for believing in me. And tonight, you'll have another reward that's under my panties—"The last phrase was clearly heard by Caio, who was opening the door at that moment.Sofia quickly bounced off Alan's lap, trying to disguise the intimacy. Caio blushed slightly, smiling awkwardly.Alan smiled nervously. "Wow, everyone decided to start early in 2012! Good morning, cousin."Caio avoided looking at Sofia. "Good morning, cousin. Do we have any updates regarding our annual meeting?""My dad appointed me president – again." Alan's cat-like grin indicated that he wasn't complaining. "And we'll have all the important people, just like last year."Caio's face g
