Building My Life Chapter 1794 Nightmare's End
After the first session is over, Vera leaves and is surrounded by journalists curious to get some testimony from her.“Miss Reis, are you confident that the kidnapper will be put behind bars?”“How do you feel after finally being able to vent?”“Do you believe the nightmare is over?”Vera finally responds with a confident smile, “I am convinced that the nightmare is over. I contributed to society by having a little peace by denouncing evil and rottenness. Now I’ll sleep more peacefully, thank you.”A cloud of flash pops over Vera as the journalists try to elicit more answers, but Vera walks away with a graceful wave.Beto finds her, “Little sister, you were amazing! The imbecile has completely lost control.”“I don't think he ever had control.” Vera says, “We are the ones who let ourselves be carried away by his magnetism. But he was just an empty package covering nothing.”“That's great. Take away the famous and industrial Renan and we’ll only see an idiot.” Beto laughs.Wallace walk
Building My Life Chapter 1795 Banquet in the Canteen
Josias and Tiago enter Ivan Moraes's office. The sergeant is handling another case, coincidentally, on the day of the Trial of the Year.“Sergeant!” Tiago exclaims, startling Moraes, “What are you doing here? Were you not summoned to testify?”“I have been scheduled for the next hearing.” Ivan blatantly lies, still staring at the computer.“O really?” Josias asks wryly, “That's cool, so you'll meet with my parents. They’ll report that the defendant used to bring harlots to my hotel as if he wanted to set up a net on my property. How absurd, right?”Ivan types so hard that the keyboard could break loose at any moment, “What do gentlemen want?”“Laugh in your face.” Tiago responds without fear of being detained for contempt, “You fought like hell to let Renan Vasconcelos free. When Mayor Tobias withdrew his support, you tried to delay the trial by getting my master into the mess, digging up an unrelated matter. Now we have the result.”“You are very brave to come here to mock an authori
Building My Life Chapter 1796 Donkey Idea
Josias returns to Rocha Constructions and finds Katherine waiting for him.“Honey, shouldn't you be in the Teodoro building’s canteen eating with everyone else?”Katherine smiles romantically, “I'd rather celebrate with you.”“Are you prepared for the next action of our lives?” Josias asks softly, in her ear.Katherine feels goosebumps. Of course she's prepared! Being Mrs. Rocha is everything she's wanted since 1992.“My father called.” Katherine changes her tone, “He said he wants everything bad for our lives and that J.J. die.”Josias breaks the smile. The frown is so ugly that Katherine is even afraid of him.“I think I'll pay my father-in-law a visit.”Katherine already imagines the Bezerra Farm being set on fire while Ephraim is burned alive on a stake as if he were the scarecrow of the field, “NO, dear, don't stain your hands with blood! We are going to look for Everaldo so that he can pronounce a blessing instead of a curse.”“OK, let God take care of those who curse us.” Josia
Building My Life Chapter 1797 Josias and Katherine Get Married (1)
The big day of Josias and Katherine's wedding arrived.As agreed when Josias was still engaged to Angela, the wedding this time took place at the Rocha Mansion.The weather was generous: it didn't rain a deluge, but it didn't give a scorching sun that would make everyone uncomfortable.The altar was set up in the garden. As often happens in Hollywood movies, split seats were positioned between the bride and groom's side, a white canvas canopy was mounted over the altar, and a sound system was installed so the priest's speech could be heard well by those present.Guests marvel at the luxury of the mansion and can't wait for the moment to be able to enter it. For now, they would have to watch the ceremony outside.Josias had isolation tape put up in the pool area so no child or clumsy guest would venture out and fall.He looks very elegant in his black tuxedo. It was agreed that Josias would be the only one to wear a matching vest to differentiate himself from the other groomsmen.Uélto

Melissa doesn't understand why Kelvin got upset with Uélton's question, “Honey, it's not a big deal. Let's check if the kids are ready.”Kelvin steps in front of Melissa's steps with a frown, “Honey, answer my question.”Melissa stares Kelvin deep into his eyes, “No, you're not crazy or stupid to think I won't leave you, because I never will. I don’t want to do that. Not after everything we've been through, not with twins who aren't even a year old. Anyone who thinks that doesn't know me.”“Then let Uélton know about it.” Kelvin turns off the radio, “I already told Daryl.”Melissa starts to fret, “Actually, these insinuations offend me. No one thinks I prefer to stay with you. As handsome as Josias is, he decided to marry someone else today, and I want to be there because I am the mother of his two children.”“Looks like we're even.” Kelvin smiles slightly, “I also have two of your children.”Melissa calms down as she feels that her husband is lighting the gloomy atmosphere, “Yes, lif
Building My Life Chapter 1799 Josias and Katherine Get Married (3)
Katherine is in one of the bedrooms checking her dress and makeup in the mirror. She is emotional and tries hard not to cry. Finally, the day she's been looking forward to has finally arrived! It was ironic that until 1995 she thought the battle was lost, but when Angela decided to become a bad person, Josias boldly kicked Angela out and singled her out.One might imply that Katherine was the second choice, but she is too happy to care about that detail. So what if she was the second choice? It’s SHE who will walk down the aisle, confirm ‘I do’, and be Mrs. Rocha. What was the point of being the first and not getting the prize?The door opens and Melissa enters the room. She is impacted for a moment and analyzes the bride. The white, lacy dress, with golden details on the train, a defined waist, and a voluminous skirt gave Katherine the appearance of a princess.Melissa remembered that when it was her turn in 1984, her dress was much simpler. Is it '90s fashion, or did Josias take mor

Melissa meets with her family. Daryl and Diana arrive almost late and sit behind them.Kelvin leans towards her, “Where have you been, honey?”“I was talking to the bride, thinking she needed help.”Kelvin smiles, “How lovely, honey, you helped the bride...”“It wasn’t necessary.” Melissa responds dryly and faces the altar, “She was already dressed and made up by professionals. But I can't blame her. When I married Josias, I could count on my family and friends. Kate couldn't even count on the father who uttered curses when she tried to invite him.”“Glad you understand, sweetheart.” Kelvin kisses Melissa's cheek.Daryl is frowning and wanting to squeeze Melissa's neck, “Did you hear that, darling?” he whispered.“Yes, and I don't mean to make a fuss about it.” She whispers back.“She's comparing marriages—” Daryl cuts himself off as William takes a seat next to him, “Oh my God, did Josias invite you? I thought you hated him.”“And I hate him.” William snorts, “The invitation came on
Building My Life Chapter 1801 Inauguration of the New Headquarters
1998Great commotion and agglomeration in the East Lagoon neighborhood. Today is the inauguration of the new headquarters of Rocha Constructions!Josias keeps pinching himself to see if he's dreaming or if he's fulfilling yet another dream. He looks up and thanks God for all the achievements he has had.When looking at the crowd that awaits him, he instinctively looks for Everaldo. Where is he? Isabel swore he was at the wedding, but he didn't see him either among those present or at the wedding feast.Tiago was at the entrance of the building, on an improvised platform, speaking with a microphone to the crowd.“My dears, many of you know me as the 'money man'.” Laughter among those present, “Yes, I was the one who provided the start-up capital. There was a man, Romualdo Silva, who believed in a dream. After seeing how skillfully he and his team built my house in Happiness Slum, I couldn't stay quiet, I had to help him. Well, look how far we've come!”Everyone applauds effusively. Tia

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,
