Building My Life Chapter 1868 Alan and William
Jack meets Octavio at Café Montanha. The big brother is sipping regular coffee while Mariah Carey's song “The Roof” doesn't get out of the radio charts.“Bro, how nice to meet you here.” Jack pulls up a chair and sits down, “I need to tell you something we decided.”“Yes. Jane and I also decided something.” Octavio smiles and places the cup on the saucer.“Veronica and I are thinking of taking our father to a quiet life in Sunset Village, or an apartment in the building where the Mountain Penthouse is located. The location is closer to the General Hospital.” Jack announces.Octavio is a little embarrassed, “Ehr... Jack, the idea is great. But Jane suggested that we live at home precisely to take care of our father.”Jack laughs. They are at an impasse.“Complicated...” Jack scratches the back of his head, “At least I know I don't want to live in Rainbow Garden anymore. And you, my brother, should think of another dwelling. You are the Head of architects at Rocha Constructions, your sa
Building My Life Chapter 1869 What Will We Do?
“Shut up, WILLIAM?”This question was asked by Dora when she was with Simeon at home in the living room. The sportscaster was lamenting the loss of the Brazilian soccer team to the French in the World Cup final. Since Simeon and Dora didn't want to suffer defeat anymore, they decided to talk about what was going on in their family.“Exactly, dear.” Simeon nods, “I couldn't take it. I saw William through our grandson. So the best way to have ended that fight was to call Alan by the name of the person he hates the most.”“Kids don't hate, honey.” Dora shakes her head.“OK, let’s say this is about dislike.” Simeon gestures. He picks up the TV remote and turns it off, “Alan had a meltdown just like our son and locked himself in his room. Poor Reuben stood in the middle of the living room not understanding where he went wrong.”Dora laces her fingers together, worried, “I don't like this, honey. When Reuben understands that he is being snubbed by Alan, he will buy a revolver when he comes

Josias shows up at Rocha Constructions and is greeted by everyone, from the girls who work in the lobby to the elevator operator and the cleaning ladies. He is truly respected and revered by all.When he arrives at his office floor, Josias finds Tiago waiting for him in the hallway.“Master, can we speak in your office?”“And when we couldn’t talk?” Josias jokes.“The matter is serious. I understand that the succession of this company is open again. Would that be necessary... or prudent?”As they walk to the office, Josias replies, “My successor is still Alan, Tiago.”“But it's that word 'still' that concerns me, master.” Tiago asserts, “You don't want Angela and Katherine to fight again and be Melissa's enemies, do you?”Josias takes the key from his pocket and unlocks his office door. Pollyanna had left the air conditioning on and the room was cool, “No, I don't. But my son is not making it easy for me.”Tiago rolls his eyes, “What did he do now?”“My ex-father-in-law said he was be

In the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin is outraged by a visitor mistreating the lady of the home.“Mrs. Rocha, Katherine, I don't know what you want to be called: don't come to my home to insult my wife.”Katherine smiles venomously and retorts rudely, “Don't you realize that none of this is really yours? You are living in the penthouse that was purchased by Josias and you are married to a woman who once slept with the same Josias, and to top it all off, you are raising two of Josias's children!”Melissa can't take it anymore and raises her hand to slap the insolent one, but Kelvin catches it in time.Katherine widens her eyes, “Let her go, Kelvin! Let's see if she has the nerve to slap me. In the next issue of Maggiezine, her reputation will be ruined!”“Maggie would never low herself to that role!” Melissa screams.“My dear, before she was your sister-in-law, she was editor-in-chief of the magazine that has grown the most in circulation. She wouldn't pass up this hot gossip.”Kelvin is d
Building My Life Chapter 1872 The Brother Wants to Help
Caio arrives from school still wearing his uniform, just in time to see his family arguing once more.“This is the height of absurdity!” Dora exclaims, “Caio said he would stay at the pizzeria helping you and you encouraged him. Now you want him to steal Alan's throne?”Caio widens his eyes at this information. But the adults have their backs to him. William could see him, but he's focused on pestering his parents.“Yes, I want the best for my child.” William asserts, “I agreed to let him stay with me at the pizzeria because I didn't see how he could own Rocha Constructions. But now that Alan is failing and proving to be an annoying guy, why can't I dream about the possibility? Josias is fond of my son and is sure to see to it if you ask—”Caio can't take it anymore and chimes in, “OK, let's stop this insane conversation now! What's going on here, can't you spend a week in peace in this family?”William smiles slyly, “Sonny, the position is open for you to succeed Josias in the compan

At Marçal Publishing, Bernardo is turning on his computer when the secretary appears in the doorway.“Excuse me, Mr. Marçal. Mr. Oliveira, from LCN, would like to speak with you.”“Send him in, even though we don’t have an appointment.” Bernardo is curious.Daniel enters the office in a suit and tie and with a sly smile, “Hello, Mr. Marçal!”“Mr. Oliveira, I am curious about your presence.” Bernardo greets him by shaking hands, “What can I do for you?”“Remember our proposal to adapt Isabel Freire’s latest book, ‘Love Spins the World’?”“Exactly. You came to give the answer.” Bernardo sits down.Daniel takes a seat in the visitors' seat, “Actually, I came to ask another question. Isabel Freire appeared on LCN announcing that she intends to write the biography of Uélton Freire.”“It's her late youngest son, you know.” Bernard nods.“The Board asked if it wouldn't be more interesting for us to do a limited series based on his biography instead of the other book.” Daniel smiles, showing
Building My Life Chapter 1874 A Risky Idea by LCN
At Marçal Publishing, Maggie was about to enter when she overhears the conversation between Daniel and Bernardo.“Mr. Oliveira... the biography of Uélton Freire is still being written.” Bernardo explains, “And Mrs. Freire has not signaled that she intends to authorize the book to be adapted for TV.”Maggie's eyes widen. What is that? Is LCN wanting to explore the sadness of others?Daniel doesn't give up, “Maybe we should talk to her properly.”“If Mrs. Freire knows that the biography will be adapted, she will feel unable to write interesting details.” Bernardo raises his index finger, “And we're still forgetting one detail.”“What detail?”“Certainly Josias Rocha will be included in the biography,” Bernardo responds as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.But Daniel shrugs, “Jack Motta could perfectly play the role of Mr. Rocha, and—”Maggie can't take it anymore and chimes in, "Hey, Mr. Oliveira, stop dreaming big! We have already given you an excellent book, 'Love Spins
Building My Life Chapter 1875 Josias Is the Best Man
William is startled and unbalanced when Caio asks if he wants a taxi. He wanted to be alone so no one would know he was trying to phone the police.“Son, don't scare your father to death. My defective leg is enough.”“If you didn’t play Spider-Man—”“Are you going to forever throw this in my face?” William crouches down to pick up the crutches, “How's the pizzeria? Ready for today's service?”“Now are you worried about your business?” Caio crosses his arms, smiling wryly, “Why don't you stay here and see for yourself?”“Your grandparents didn't like to see me near the cash register not doing activities,” William responds in mockery.“You were behaving like a lazy Roman emperor, that's right!” Caio asserts, “And why do you want to talk to Sergeant Moraes? Isn’t he the policeman who hates Uncle Josias?”William slowly walks out, “Don't make me correct you about who your uncle is, boy. Kelvin Mountain is the one who should receive the title. Now excuse me, or do you want to knock me down

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,
