At the Marçal bookstore, Isabel was visibly upset by the question of the journalist that couldn't be more than twenty-five. Is he still an intern or apprentice to Vernon?“Young man, I don't want to discuss this unpleasant matter.”“Do you think the swimming instructor is innocent or guilty?” He insists as if he didn't hear what Isabel said.Francisco tries to push the journalist, “Comrade, move away or ask questions concerning the autograph session. We don't want to get involved in other people's affairs.”“But you are practically the family!” The journalist tries to convince them, “Mr. Mountain, you are Melissa Campos's current husband's uncle. Surely you—”The door opens and Bernardo and Maggie enter.“Is everything okay here, guys?”“Bernie, get rid of this abusive journalist!” Isabel demands, “He doesn't want to ask about my books or my family; he only came to reap more controversial statements about Josias and Kate!”Maggie takes the lead, “Young man, I suggest you stick to what
Building My Life Chapter 1928 Session of Confusion
Isabel's autograph session began. Security guards and store inspectors had to control the flow of fans so they wouldn't crowd like wild animals at the famous writer's table.Some had already bought the book but wanted to buy another one just to have Isabel Freire's valuable autograph. Who knows, in the future, this copy may be sold for a more appreciated value...Francisco being on Isabel's side scared away men between 50 and 60 years old who were romantically interested in her. Isabel never showed her age and was considered a 'hot grandma' by them.“Honey, why do readers break their smiles when it's their turn?”Francisco smiles from the corner of his mouth, “It's not because they see you, honey, it's because they see ME. Smarties...”“Your girlfriend is famous and coveted by senior males. Can you handle it, honey?” Isabel asks playfully.“Of course!” Francisco responds good-naturedly, “At the end of the day, I'm the one with you...”Isabel melts like sugar. The next reader appears a

Mrs. Rocha, why did you hit my wife?”“Your wife is a damn gossiper!” Katherine screams at the top of her lungs, “By what authorization did she have to divulge personal matters?”Maggie massages her burning cheek. Bernardo keeps holding her so she doesn't jump on top of Katherine.“Kate, I thought I was doing a public benefit!” Maggie asserts, indignant, “That man harassed you. Why would you want to keep it hidden?”“This wasn’t necessarily hidden, the police were already taking care of it!” Katherine retorts, “Now the swimming instructor is going to flee Brazil when he sees his face in the magazine. That’s if he hasn’t already!”Bernardo responds, “Wait, until yesterday, this guy was giving C

She's already in her nightgown even though it's still afternoon.J.J. enters the room and is startled by what he sees, “Mom, are you feeling ill?”“Don’t worry, son. Mom has already taken a pill. Go play with Alan.”“Alan left, remember?”“Fortunately...”“What?” J.J. widens his eyes.“It was nothing, son, Mommy has a fever.” Katherine doesn't face her son.“I'm going to check if Daddy's coming.” J.J. slowly walks out of the suite.Coincidentally, Josias appears and bumps into his son in the hallway, “J.J., is your mother here?”“Yes, Dad! She's in the room with a fever! Don't worry, she's already taken a pill.” J.J. responds with an angelic smile, “Daddy, Mommy isn’t going to die, is she?”Josias had to stop himself from saying yes.

Building My Life Chapter 1932 Tiago Bento to the Rescue
At Marçal Bookstore, Wallace, Vera, and Reuben appeared to greet Isabel. The session is finally over and Isabel exercises her hand to relieve the pain of so much autographing.“It seemed like the queue would never end!” Isabel exclaims with a smile, “But I'm glad the session was a success.”Wallace clears his throat, “I was at the construction site when the radio announced an assault here.”“Yes, Kate came out of nowhere and slapped Maggie. It was because of the article.” Isabel shrugs.Vera wonders, “But why is Kate nervous? I think everyone should know about the depraved instructor!”Isabel purses her lips, “Tiago Bento and Carmen informed us that Mr. Guzman is innocent and that Kate invented this slur. It's all a misunderstanding that's growing like a snowball. Josias, the poor fellow, still hasn't read Maggiezine or his father's article.”“This is impossible!” Wallace exclaims.“That's why I also feel like there's something wrong with this story.” Isabel scratches her chin, “But m

Now he noticed when he got out of the shower.Katherine still has a seductive expression on her face, “I guess my 'discipline' wasn't enough yet...”“What is it, woman?” Josias chuckles, “Don't tempt me.

Chapter 3148 Josias Is Insane
Josias visits the Rocha Hotel since he didn’t have a day off for the staff. In the management room, Eugenio gathered David, Benjamin, and Sybil. “Why is that mere cook present at this meeting?” David asked disparagingly. “Because that’s how our boss ordered it,” Eugenio replied dryly. “I didn’t say anything and didn’t call this meeting, so if you’ll excuse me...” Benjamin and Sybil were horrified to see David leaving the meeting just like that. However, when he opened the door, David came face to face with his father. “David, where do you think you’re going?” “DAD!” David exclaimed, extremely surprised. “I didn’t know you were coming!” “Didn’t Eugenio tell you I was coming?” Josias asked with a scowl. David understood who the ‘boss’ was. Benjamin and Sybil felt vindicated. Josias sat down at the desk, taking Eugenio’s seat, while the manager remained humbly standing. “Very well,” Josias began the meeting in a formal tone, “I’m here just to make things crystal clear.

But the princess is Carol,” Mary responded, striking a serious pose.Melissa and Rodrigo laughed heartily. Mary is something else...“Rod, how has it been managing the café in your father’s absence?” Melissa asked seriously.Rodrigo served a baked chicken pastry with ketchup to Mary. “I'm getting by, Melissa. Josias was here earlier, more concerned about my loss than his own, as always. Isn’t he supposed to be resting?”Melissa nodded. “My husband is like that: he only relaxes when all of us are relaxed.”“An impossible mission because of certain people.”Neilton approached with the glass. “Who ordered a guava juice?”“I DID!” Mary grabbed the glass and went to a table.Melissa leaned forward, “Neil, Rod, how are Daryl and Diane?

Chapter 3146 We Need to Talk - Dad
At João Paulo’s house, he and Josias were about to have a significant conversation.“Walter, do you want to go with your mom to the kitchen?” João Paulo asked, looking at Helen. “I think she made some walnut cake.”“It was carrot cake,” Sandra replied, already getting up from the couch.“You got it.” Helen appeared and picked up Walter in her arms. “Let’s let Dad and Uncle Josias talk.”“Bye, Uncle!” Walter waved goodbye to Josias.“Bye-bye, I want a piece later!” Josias chuckled.Once alone with João Paulo, Josias became serious. “Don’t let anything or anyone ruin this family scenario, little brother.”“I’m fine. No one wants to ruin anything,” João Paulo replied casually.“Well, I hope David hasn’t caused you any trouble.”“He probably doesn’t even know I exist, man.” João Paulo shrugged.“But I stopped by Café Montanha and found out that the Vasquez family has replaced the Mountain family as the ‘annoying people.’”João Paulo sighed in disappointment. “Yeah.

Chapter 3145 João Paulo Is a Good Father
Josias visits Café Montanha for a coffee and finds Rodrigo there. “Rod, how have you been?” Rodrigo is taken aback. “How am I? You’re the one who suffered a horrific loss recently!” “But you also lost your father. We’re in the same situation,” Josias explained as he sat down on a stool. “I’m okay, Josias. Life has a way of cheering me up. For example, I’m back at the diner after Thierry decided to take his place at the supermarket.” Rodrigo smiled. “What about the photography studio?” Josias smiled back. “It’s still going to operate, and Thierry will make periodic visits. But he’s going to appoint one of the staff to manage the studio.” Rodrigo served a pizza pastry to Josias. “Thank you. Well, I hope everything is alright between you two. I need to visit Rosemary and meet Jean Luc — is that the name of the baby?” “Yes, the name of the supermarket heir. Meanwhile, Frank will be here or somewhere else.” Josias interjected, “If Frank wants to work at Rocha Constructions, count

At the Rocha Mansion, Josias receives a visit from Benjamin. “How have you been, Ben? Any news about your parents?” The two embrace. “Actually, that’s what I want to talk about.” Benjamin scratches the back of his neck. The embrace breaks. “Let’s go to my office.” The two gentlemen enter Josias’s imposing office. “Any problems with Adolfo?” Josias asks, becoming serious. “Not yet, but I hope not to have any,” Benjamin replies with some sadness. “You know, Josias, what happened with your father made me think about my family, about how important it is for all of us to be together in the final moments.” “That’s true. João Paulo can tell you that better than I can.” “I think you can say it too. Vernon was the father you never had.” Benjamin clears his throat. “So, I’ve been looking into some hotels and realized there’s a demand at the Rocha Hotel in Victoria.” Josias looks at Benjamin, understanding where he’s going with this. “You want to go to Victoria to be close to your pare

Someone rings the doorbell at João Paulo’s house. The homeowner goes to answer after taking a shower and putting on clean clothes. But when he opened the door, João Paulo felt like slamming it in the visitor’s face. “Don’t be rude!” Erasmo exclaimed. “What do you want, you old bore?” João Paulo shot back. Erasmo barged into João Paulo’s foyer. “The mourning is over. Let’s pick up where we left off.” “Are you crazy? Who decides how long mourning lasts? We just got back from the trip!” “Not exactly, it’s been a day. Life goes on, my friend!” Erasmo replied mockingly. João Paulo remained serious. “But I don’t want to continue living this way, where fights and intrigues are the order of the day. Mr. Vasquez, you have a business to run, and I have a family to raise.” “But you found time to slap my son-in-law when he was here defending his family, didn’t you?” “Alan was extremely rude, but that was some time ago.” João Paulo frowned. “I don’t feel the same anger as before.” “So a

Chapter 3142 Let’s Launch Another Biography
At the Vasquez Mansion, Alan could hardly believe that the people were thinking about more intrigues and disputes. “Guys, don’t you understand that I even forgot the reason I slapped Uncle João Paulo?” “Ridiculous!” Erasmo gestured. “You just maintained respect because it was a difficult occasion. But now, the mourning is OVER!” “Do you think João Paulo will rest, dear?” Sofia asked, sitting next to him. Alan shook his head. “If Uncle João Paulo doesn’t want to rest, then he is truly despicable. But my dad is back in town. He wouldn’t dare to do that.” The news should have been uplifting, but the members of the Vasquez family merely exchanged silent glances. With Josias present, it’s quite likely that he will put a stop to their fighting. Alan turned to Olivia. “In the meantime, we should celebrate the recovery of my dear mother-in-law!” Olivia and Sofia smiled awkwardly because of the secret they were keeping. “That’s right, let’s celebrate life!” Erasmo wrapped his arm arou

Josias Rocha and his family returned to Lagoon City. Those who were waiting for them stayed in the mansion and greeted them cheerfully in the foyer. “WELCOME BACK!” Melissa, crying, embraced her parents, William, and the twins fervently. Josias greeted them with a light smile. “Where’s João Paulo?” William asked. “He went straight to his house. His kids needed to rest from the trip.” Melissa wiped her tears with her fingers. “Alan went straight to his mansion. Especially now that his mother-in-law has woken up from the coma.” “That was a scare; I thought we’d have two funerals,” Simeon commented. Everyone headed to the living room. “Is Paris very beautiful, Mom?” Mary asked. “Yes, sweetheart, it’s stunning. We’ll go shopping together another time, okay?” “Do you have pictures?” Ignacio asked anxiously. “Yes, son, we took some pictures.” Melissa sat on the couch, pulling out a package from her bag. Josias sat in the armchair, taking a deep breath. William approached him.

At Café Montanha, Daryl walks in for a coffee and finds Rodrigo at the counter while Neilton serves the others. “Hey, are we back to the old tradition?” “Don’t be a clown, man.” Rodrigo laughs. “Yes, Thierry is at the supermarket, as we agreed.” “Hi, Neil. Can you make me a cappuccino while I enjoy a natural sandwich?” Daryl places his order. “Sure thing, Mr. Mountain.” Neilton heads to the back. Daryl sits on the stool. “So, how do you feel after getting back to your element?” “I don’t regret at all helping my dear wife at the supermarket, Daryl,” Rodrigo admitted while preparing the natural sandwich. “I’m not talking about regrets.” Daryl joked. “But it’s undeniable that after Uncle Francisco’s passing, you prefer to stay here, carrying on the legacy he left.” “Just like Crystal Blue.” Rodrigo smiled. “Hey, I’m aware that you’re looking to open another restaurant in Sunset Village. Do you think you can manage it? How’s the prospecting going?” Daryl picks up the sandwich but
