Building My Life Chapter 1811 Conducted at the Police Station
Josias is horrified to see that Caio self-deprecates in this way, “Leech, you? No, Caio, I never thought of that!”“But that's what I think.” Caio gets up and walks away, “Uncle Josias, if you weren't rich, we'd all be in the favela today. No one has the same talent for business as you. My father would be the salvation, but he ruined his football career. My aunt Melissa would have married a guy from the favela and would still be poor today.”Josias gets up and tries to ease Caio's conscience, “My nephew, I never accused you of taking advantage of my wealth. On the contrary, I was always happy to help. Do you remember when we all lived close together in the little house in Green Park? I just couldn't leave your family behind.”Caio smiles bitterly at Josias, “Yes, and at that time my father was your great friend. How convenient. Now that my father no longer needs your money, he hates you.”Josias scratches the back of his head, “Your father’s question is more complicated.”“So, Uncle J

Caio goes to his grandparents' house. Dora is sweeping the living room to the tune of “Angel” by Robbie Williams, the new British singer who is stealing the hearts of Brazilian women.“Beautiful music, huh, grandma?” Caio asks playfully.“And the singer also is...” Dora answers without thinking.“What did I just hear?” Simeon suddenly appears from the kitchen, shirtless, freeballing in wet shorts and plumber's gloves.Caio bursts out laughing as Dora tries to fix herself, “Ehr... What is it, hubby, you know I love you. Even more so when you appear to me like this, all sexy, shirtless, and sensually wet...”Simeon pretends he's not getting carried away by the mood, “Don't make it up, woman. That water is what was stagnant in the kitchen pipe.”Dora was going to snuggle up against her husband's hairy chest, but when she feels the stench of dirty water from the sink mixed with detergent and grease, she wrinkles her nose and pulls away.Caio is happier to see his grandparents acting like
Building My Life Chapter 1813 Katherine is Interrogated
Katherine is ushered into the police station as if she were a suspect in murder or money laundering. Some photographers who were covering other news noticed her and photographed her. An LCN reporter got excited and ran to the van where the rest of the team was.“Someone please call Vernon Queiroz! It's urgent, Mrs. Rocha has just been arrested!”Amoreira watched Katherine walk serenely through the corridors behind a mute Ivan.“Moraes, what is going on here? Why didn't you ask these photographers not to take pictures of Mrs. Rocha?”“I can't stop the press from speaking out,” Ivan responds ironically.“Yes, you may, unless Mrs. Rocha has been formally charged with a crime!” Amoreira defends her.“Don’t interfere with my investigation, Amoreira!” Instead of pushing the photographers, Ivan pushes the detective, “This way, Mrs. Rocha.”Katherine decides to keep quiet. After all, anything she says now could be used against her in court.When they are closed in the sergeant's office, Ivan

At Rocha Hotel, Vernon is red and almost having a heart attack when talking to his co-workers. Vernon was one of the few Lagoon City citizens to use a cell phone, “Listen here, you morons: Don't do bad press with my son's wife! I know he is not my legitimate son, but believe me when I say that you are not ready to face the wrath of Josias Rocha! If you want to report something, talk about how Mrs. Rocha was shamefully and unfairly misled, without the prerogatives of the legal process, do you hear me?”He ends the call by nearly dunking the button on his Motorola device. Elsa is worried.“Careful, dear. This cell phone cost a lot of money.”“But I could afford it, and I suggest you buy one for yourself.” Vernon smiles slightly, “They're all buying.”“OK, but with this news I heard on the radio, I'm not even in the mood to buy a pair of shoes.” Elza crosses her fingers, “Why did they take our darling daughter-in-law? I'm so busy with the hotel that I don't have time for anything else.”

At Crystal Blue, Daryl is presenting Diane with a cell phone. There were two boxes on top of the bar counter.Diane is delighted with the gift, “Oh, my love! Everyone is buying this stuff to communicate remotely.”“Everybody who has money, you mean.” Daryl jokingly states, “That device cost me a kidney, imagine buying two.”“Well, what's the use of just one of us having a mobile phone?” Diane shrugs and picks up the instruction manual to see how to handle it without breaking it on the first day.“You're right.” Daryl gives a light kiss on the cheek and also takes the manual for his device.Maggie nervously enters the restaurant, “Hello everyone! Can you tell me if Kate has left the police station safe and sound? Many commented that they saw Miguel Damascene’s car going at full speed to the police station.”Daryl and Diane stare at Maggie, “I don't understand. What happened to Kate?” Daryl asked.“She was taken by Sergeant Moraes to the police station to discuss the loan shark’s death.
Building My Life Chapter 1816 Wallace gets permission
Vera returns from the psychiatrist with renewed spirits. Teresa is listening to the radio.“And the information we have is that Mrs. Katherine Rocha left the police station flanked by Josias Rocha. The two refused to speak to the press. Ironically, Mrs. Rocha is responsible for Public Relations at Rocha Constructions, so we couldn't get any explanation. The Lagoon City Police Station also didn’t respond and asked reporters to leave. Now continue with our normal schedule.”The radio started playing “Quit Playing Games (With My Heart),” but Teresa and Vera weren't thrilled with the Backstreet Boys.“How absurd is all this, sister-in-law!” Vera slams her purse on the counter, “Will Josias Rocha ever find peace?”"I'm glad it's Katherine and not Melissa." Teresa opines, “Can you imagine a lady who gave birth to twins facing such a challenge?”Vera opens her purse and searches for a piece of paper, “I got the number of a male psychiatrist to help my Wally.”“Hope it all works out, my frien
Building My Life Chapter 1817 Unpopular Matter
The following week, the cover of Maggiezine was on another subject, but there was a lead for an inside article about Katherine's questioning at the police station. Readers went to the indicated page and revolted about the situation.As a result, countless citizens flooded police stations with letters of protest. At City Hall, the secretaries had their ears swollen from receiving so many curses and swear words.Tobias is in front of the Chief of the Police Station, a white-haired gentleman with a face expressing more than thirty years dedicated to the profession of serving and protecting.“Mayor...”“Chief Kleberg, you need to control that sergeant of yours, Ivan Moraes.” Tobias extends the Maggiezine open to the article page. A huge photo of Katherine being led away made the Chief blush, “This can't be repeated. An investigation has become a media circus and my constituents are blaming me.”“It's definitely not your fault, mayor.” Chief Kleberg clears his throat nervously.“Good thing

Jack and Octavio are clearing their throats and looking in every direction but their father's face. The shame is too much.Ronaldo seems to enjoy the children's embarrassment, "Come on, it's not such a difficult question."“Father, you are in a great hurry,” Octavio responds with nervous chuckles.“I'm not. It’s my life that is passing by.” Ronaldo says, “Maybe I won't have time to hug my grandchildren, but just knowing that you will have them is already a comfort for me.”“For that, it's better for us to get married before.” Jack jokingly states.“And what are you waiting for?” Ronaldo is excited like a child, “You've been just stalling since 1996. Later, your ladies will be the next to press you. No woman likes to be lied to.”Octavio states, “Dad, I need to get to know Jane even more.”“What else is there to know?” Ronaldo asserts, “Jane is beautiful, a good girl, decent, respectful, hardworking, responsible, dedicated... she’ll be the perfect mother of your children.”Octavio thro

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

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,
