Building My Life Chapter 1945 The Master Interrogates the Servant
At Lagoon City P.D., Attorney Figueira looks like he wants to hide a laugh when he hears his client's question.“Mrs. Rocha, since you want to be direct, let's be direct. Do you really believe that you’ll come out of this story unscathed?”Katherine forces an act, “I didn't mean to kill that girl, lawyer!”“Wow, the girl hasn't died yet. And to be honest, I hope the worst doesn't happen.” Mr. Figueira pulls up a chair and sits down, “You are in dire straits, and we can only count on the judge’s sensitivity.”Katherine decides to drop the acting and be herself, “OK, what's the procedure?”“I need to know why you hit that writer.”Katherine thought hard about what to say. She couldn't repeat that she wanted 'the investigation under wraps' because at the time there wasn't even an investigation, “Maggiezine hinted that I had flirted with Mr. Cláudio Guzman and now I would be pretending that he was the one who took the first step. This is slander and I want redress.”“Would justice be done
Building My Life Chapter 1946 Gabriela Woke Up Vengeful
At Rocha Constructions, Tiago is immediately asked about Claudio's whereabouts.He is calm and confident, “What is it, master? Has the charge been dropped? Can he come back yet?”“I have withdrawn my complaint.” Josias slowly gets up with a mocking smile, “But my wife had hers done right after.”Tiago is stunned, “Master... We told you that story is a lie!”“So my father and Mrs. Marçal lied too?” Josias raises an eyebrow.Tiago responds cautiously, “Look, I confess I was intrigued when the articles came out. I thought that either your wife would come to her senses and confess the truth, or she would take advantage of the publicity to back up her lie. At first, she did neither one thing nor the other. But now she decided on the second option, why?”“She was angry about the articles because she didn't want publicity on top of it.” Josias calmly explains, “But her anger weighed more heavily on Maggiezine because the writer implied that Kate was posing as Potiphar's wife.”“That is, mast
Building My Life Chapter 1947 Gossip at Rocha Hotel
Josias remembered that he had forgotten to tell Katherine about her banishment. He scratches the back of his neck, embarrassed.Katherine sees the confused expression on his face, “What is it? Doesn't one of them work? Don't worry, I'll go Downtown to buy a new one—”“Save your credit card, honey.” Josias gestures, “You won’t go to the engagement party, let alone the wedding.”Because Katherine said 'Wally', Josias started to accept what Tiago and Melissa always say about her being on fire for Claudio.Katherine is outraged by the information, “WHAT? What impudence is this? Who stopped me?”“The party owners, of course,” Josias answers indifferently, going to his closet, "WALLACE showed up in my office saying that both families don't want your presence at the festivities.”“This is ridiculous! I never thought that Wally—”Josias closes his closet door with a bang and strides into the bathroom to shower. Katherine, still not realizing her husband's jealousy, follows him.She is surpris

Maggie and Bernardo visit Gabriela at the hospital. She's better, the color is back in her face, and she's ready to get even.“Mrs. Marçal... Maggie... Thank you so much for always being by my side. And I’m sorry for making the situation worse.”Bernardo is startled, “What do you mean by that, my dear? None of this was your fault!”“If we think about it calmly, yes it was...” Gabriela sinks into the pillows, “I provoked the crazy woman and she fell on top of me, spanking me as if she were a boxer. I thought I was going to die...”Tears begin to form in Gabriela's eyes.Maggie strokes her hair, “Don't worry, Gabriela. You didn't know the creature, but Katherine always had a history of hysteria and histrionics. The education she received from her father in the countryside was not the best.”“I still don't understand what went wrong.” Gabriela sniffs, “Looks like she just confirmed what we wrote was true. It would be much easier to write to us claiming that the insinuation we have made i
Building My Life Chapter 1949 Wallace and Vera Get Engaged (1)
At Isabel's house, she is about to throw Katherine out if she doesn't admit her sins and stop calling her remaining child 'Wally'.“Stop calling my son by his nickname.” She angrily warns her, “You don't have the intimacy. The engagement is between him and Vera Reis.”Katherine sneers, “After everything I've heard about this girl, is he still going to marry her? And I won't even delve into the story that took place during the 80's... Josias told me every spicy detail...”Isabel grabs Katherine by the arm and pulls her off the couch, “I need to finish my work, so get out of here, you crazy girl!”“Isabel Freire!” Katherine exclaims outraged, “See how you treat Josias Rocha's wife! I am the most powerful lady in this city, remember that!”Isabel smiles confidently, “Well, wait until Josias finds out what you came to my house to do! You may be his wife, but I'm his best friend's mother. The Freire family is under the protection of your husband, so YOU are the one who owes me respect!”Ka

Katherine is walking through the corridors of the General Hospital intending to go to Gabriela's room. But for that, she had to go through the information desk.“Excuse me, I want to speak with Gabriela Alves.”The attending nurse narrows her eyes, “Sorry, Mrs. Rocha, but your visit is not authorized.”Katherine smiles smugly, “Nurse, I'm not asking your permission. I said I WILL speak to Miss Alves. Tell me her room, please.”“And I'm telling you that you shouldn't, I didn't allow or forbid it. Orders from Lagoon City P.D. because we are in a delicate situation.”“Oh, you know what? Forget it, I'll look from ward to ward—““POLICE! Stop this crazy abuser!” The nurse screams as soon as Katherine has barely taken two steps.Muscled security guards appeared like magic and grabbed Katherine.“Hey, what's going on here? Let me go, I need to talk—”Dr. Silvana emerged from one of the corridors, heading home after a series of treatments for pregnant women. She freezes her steps when witness

Simeon, Dora, and Caio arrive at the Rocha Hotel ballroom. Wallace greets the new arrivals.“Where is Will?” he asks effusively.Dora is embarrassed as she answers, “Wallace, we're so sorry. Will said he doesn't feel comfortable seeing everyone getting married while he remains single. Therefore, he decided to take care of the pizzeria and allowed us to come and honor you.”“Congratulations, Wallace!” Simeon exclaims with a forced smile.Wallace smiles and decides not to overextend on this matter.But Vernon would suggest to one of his staff reporters, “Write in the story: Melissa Mountain’s loser younger brother, Will Campos, refused to attend the engagement lest he feels more miserable than he already is.”The reporter chuckles as he takes notes.Francisco and Rodrigo are next to arrive, “Hey, we're not late, are we?”Isabel is impressed by her boyfriend's elegance in a tuxedo, “Wow... it was worth the wait. You look so cute, Francisco.”Francisco approaches Isabel and whispers an ob

Josias raises his champagne glass, “A toast to the fiancée and fiancé!”“TO THEM!” Everyone toasts and takes a sip.Wallace and Vera share a chaste kiss and everyone cheers. Reporters are delighted with many photos with flashes.Finally, the party continues. The DJ, seeing many children, played the song “Bring It All Back” by S Club 7.Reuben exclaims, “Whoa, let's dance, guys!”The adults laugh and let the kids have fun on the dance floor. Josias perks up and tucks himself in with them. Photographers also record this moment.Melissa smiles satisfyingly and nods to Kelvin, “Look, honey. Josias managed to stay with his three children at the same time. Look how Alan is very friendly with J.J.”“That is, that talk that the two half-brothers would dispute the throne of Rocha Constructions was nothing more than some intrigue by Katherine.” Kelvin responds, “I'm glad she didn't come.”Melissa breaks her smile and says, “Kelvin, Bernie and Maggie are hatching a plan to replace Kate. They say

Josias sat comfortably in his executive chair, reviewing printed spreadsheets when a hesitant knock interrupted his focus. The door creaked open slowly, and Tony cautiously peeked in.“Mr. Rocha?” he asked, his voice uncertain.Josias barely looked up. “Speak, Tony.”“Do I still have my job?”That made Josias pause, lifting his eyes in surprise. “And why would I fire you?”Tony hesitated. “I don’t know... talking about your son seems to make you nervous.”Josias let out a reassuring smile to ease the secretary’s nerves. “You won’t be punished for that. Now, tell me.”“He’s at the reception, causing quite a commotion.”Josias kept his smile, but inside, he had the sudden urge to throw something out the office window. “Send him in.”Tony nodded and quickly left. Only then did Josias’ expression darken.The adjacent door swung open, and Alan appeared. “Dad, I—”“Oh no, son! David is on his way up.”Alan’s expression turned incredulous. “Why the hell did you let that happen?!”“He’s proba

The morning at Lafayette Supermarket was calmier as the crew wrapped up the filming of a commercial. Rodrigo, ever the charismatic host, beamed at the camera with his signature charm.“And don’t forget,” he said enthusiastically, “the best prices can only be found here at Lafayette Supermarket!”“Cut!” the director called out.Contrary to what some might expect, Rodrigo’s radiant smile didn’t fade as soon as the cameras stopped rolling. He maintained his warm demeanor as he approached Nadia.“Sweetheart, what was that outburst with our customers?” he asked with a teasing lilt.Nadia, still flustered, huffed. “The years go by, but you remain as handsome as ever. I have to protect what’s mine.”Rodrigo chuckled, his eyes twinkling. “You have nothing to worry about anymore.”Pulling her into a loving embrace, he kissed her. As they parted, Thierry approached, clapping Rodrigo on the back.“That was great, Rod! You still got it.”Rodrigo smirked. “It’s like riding a bike. But the day will
Chapter 3162 Can We Trust Brendon?
That morning, at Rocha Constructions, Josias and Alfred walked down the hallway, engaged in a serious conversation about Brendon.“So, Alfred?” Josias asked, his tone sharp with curiosity. “Can we trust the guy?”Alfred nodded with confidence. “We can. Unless he’s twice as cunning as David.”Josias scoffed. “Impossible. My son took masterclasses in villainy.”Alfred hesitated for a moment before asking, “You’ve really given up on him, haven’t you?”Josias sighed, his voice tinged with regret. “I always tried to be fair, to integrate him into the family... but he’s been strange since he was a kid. I think he still expects me to marry his mother.”As they made their way through the bustling office, Alfred stifled a chuckle. “Pfff... Sorry, Josias, but that’s absolutely impossible. You love Melissa.”“I always have,” Josias admitted. “Of course, when she was married to Kelvin, I kept my distance.”“But things didn’t work out with Kelvin, and now you two are back together.”“And this time

The next day, the Rocha family gathered for breakfast, joined by Simeon, Dora, Ignacio, and Mary. The atmosphere was peaceful and harmonious.Hector appeared at the doorway, hesitant to interrupt but clearly carrying important news.“Speak, Hector,” Josias prompted.“Mr. Rocha, your eldest son is here,” Hector announced.Melissa looked up in surprise, dabbing her lips with a napkin. “This early?”“Let him in,” she said, setting her napkin down.Mary beamed. “Yay! Alan is joining us!”Ignacio, less convinced, muttered, “Maybe he already ate.”Dora glanced at her husband. “Could something have happened at the company — or at Vaztrans?”Simeon smirked. “I’d bet on the second option.”Just then, Alan entered with a broad smile.“Good morning, beautiful people! Oh, how I’ve missed these breakfasts!”“Don’t just miss them,” Melissa teased. “Pull up a chair and sit down!”Unable to resist, Alan sank into a seat, momentarily reliving his teenage years.Josias leaned in. “Tell us, son.

Alan sat at his desk in Rocha Constructions, focused on some important matters on his computer. The night had fallen outside, but he was too absorbed in work to notice. The office door opened, and Alfred stepped in.“Alan, may I have a word with you?” he asked.“Come in,” Alan replied without looking up.Alfred approached the desk. “The order processing team came across an unusual request.”Alan stopped typing and turned his attention to Alfred. “What kind of request?”“A renovation request for Angel’s Store.”Alan immediately flared up, rising from his chair. “What kind of joke is this? Cancel the request IMMEDIATELY!”“Normally, they would,” Alfred explained, “but the online form was submitted by Brendon Souza.”Hearing the name, Alan calmed down, reconsidering the situation. “Is he related to David? Someone who took over the store while David was at the hotel?”“Maybe. He placed the order through the website,” Alfred said.Alan crossed his arms, deep in thought. “I doubt David woul

Luís stepped into the Vaztrans Mansion, taking in the surroundings with a sense of nostalgia. He glanced around, a faint smile on his lips as he took in the familiar space. Engrácia passed behind him, carrying his luggage up to his old suite. Alan and Sofia stood nearby, watching him settle in.“I need to get back to the company as soon as possible,” Alan said, turning to Sofia. “Can you help him get settled in?”“Of course, darling,” Sofia replied before addressing Luís. “So, cousin? Feeling nostalgic?”Luís sank onto the couch with a mysterious smile. “Did you guys change the decor again?”Sofia nodded. “I had some input this time.”“I see. Aunt Olivia does have extravagant tastes, doesn’t she?” he teased.Sofia flushed slightly, a bit uncomfortable. “You have no idea how happy I am to have you back, cousin.”“I doubt everyone is as thrilled. I can think of at least two people who aren’t.” His tone was light, but the implication was clear.Alan and Sofia exchanged uneasy glances. “M

At Café Montanha that afternoon, the atmosphere grew tense as Neilton, Rodrigo, and Nadia found themselves momentarily flustered by Brendon’s introduction. Brendon, however, remained standing with his hand extended, his expression puzzled.“Uh... did I say something wrong?” he asked.Neilton hesitated before replying. “Uh, sorry, Mr. Souza. But your cousin just left here making a huge scene.”Out of politeness, he finally shook Brendon’s hand.“Typical of him, right?” Brendon said with a yellow smile. “I hope to be a contrast to that.”Rodrigo, ever the curious host, inquired, “Are you new in town? Where are you from?”“Rio de Janeiro,” Brendon replied. “I’ll be representing my aunt at Angel Stores.”Nadia narrowed her eyes slightly, studying him. He didn’t seem to share David’s unpleasant nature.“Is your father Angela’s brother?” she asked.“No,” Brendon said, shaking his head. “My father passed away. In business, I use my mother’s surname. But of course, when I get married, I’ll us

Erasmo, Olivia, and Sofia stood anxiously in Erasmo’s office at Vaztrans, their anticipation filling the room. Olivia clutched a coffee cup — certainly not her first of the day. Sofia eyed her mother with concern, her brows furrowed.“Mom, do you want to have another nervous breakdown?” she asked with worry.Olivia exhaled sharply. “I’m just trying to calm down, sweetheart.”Erasmo chuckled. “No, woman. Coffee will just make you more jittery than you already are.”Olivia suddenly froze, staring at the cup in her hands as if seeing it for the first time. “No! I thought I was drinking chamomile tea!”Erasmo burst into laughter as Olivia rushed to pour herself a cup of actual chamomile tea.Just then, the sound of footsteps echoed down the hall. Sofia perked up, instantly recognizing her husband’s steady, confident stride.The office door swung open, and Alan entered with a triumphant smile.“Son-in-law! What great news do you have for us?” Erasmo asked eagerly.Alan’s grin widened. “THI

Melissa and Brigitte sat in the office at Damascene Lawyers, but this wasn’t a friendly chat. Tension filled the air as Melissa got straight to the point.“Melissa, what are you saying?” Brigitte asked, already wary.“I’m saying you need to help me with this delicate matter,” Melissa replied firmly.Brigitte looked shocked. “Why?”“Because I don’t like scheming against family members,” Melissa said, crossing her arms. “And you are part of the family. You know Leo Borges well, right?”Brigitte shifted uncomfortably in her chair. “Yes, I know Attorney Borges.”Melissa smirked, catching the deliberate formality in Brigitte’s words. “Well, since he’s not available, could you please ask him to let J.J. work peacefully at Vasconcelos Fabrics?”Brigitte hesitated. “But that’s his brother’s business!”“I’m sure you can help us,” Melissa insisted, her gaze unwavering.Brigitte sighed. “Melissa, you’re putting me in a tight spot!”Melissa leaned in slightly. “Do you know why Josias bought share
