Building My Life Chapter 2118 Josias Begins to Confront
Simeon and Dora go to the Mountain Penthouse to take care of the grandchildren. Melissa is on the couch in the living room, checking scripts with Caroline.“Mom, you mistyped, you wrote ‘gouse’ instead of ‘house’.” Caroline points to a sheet.Melissa giggles, “Oops, thanks for letting me know, my baby girl.”“Hello, happy family!” Simeon exclaims.“Grandpa!” Caroline gets up and hugs her grandparents.Dora is overcome with happiness, “Melissa, has Will told you the news yet?”“No, Mother, but something tells me you will be the herald.” Melissa laughs.Dora sits down beside her, careful not to sit on top of the scripts, “Will told us he raised the peace flag for Josias! Yesterday, they talked and didn't fight!”Melissa and Caroline are thrilled.“Oh… Mom, Dad, what excellent news!” Melissa applauds, “William is back to being the sweet little brother I know.”Kelvin approaches from the corridor.“And Josias won't even suspect him about being the mysterious sender,” Simeon announces.Kel
Building My Life Chapter 2119 Time to Discard the Useful Idiot
In the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin is flabbergasted to hear from Simeon's mouth that Josias is suspicious of the entire Mountain family.Melissa is equally aloof, “Dad, stop it! Josias wouldn't be able to—”“For sure he would be able to.” Simeon retorts with a frown, “And if I may be allowed my opinion, to me it makes perfect sense.”“SIMEON!” Kelvin exclaims with a fierce frown, “I don't allow my family to be maligned!”Dora tsks with her tongue and asserts, “For anyone who thinks they are innocent, you are pretty nervous.”“It's because we know what happens when someone irritates Josias Rocha,” Kelvin speaks in a shaky tone.“Nobody is going to be thrown into a concrete tank.” Simeon shrugs, “These things only happen in gangster movies.”Caroline turns to Melissa with pleading eyes, “Mom, did you cause Kate and J.J. to die?”“No, my daughter!” Melissa hugs her daughter tightly, “Your mother wouldn’t be able to.”Kelvin roars, “See what you're doing? You are stirring up intrigue among
Building My Life Chapter 2120 Beggar with Money
In Beto's apartment, he is drying Maycon after he takes a shower.“Can you do this alone, son?”“Yes!” Maycon responds very excitedly.Teresa enters the room and smiles when she sees the interaction between father and son, “Don’t take too long to dress him, dear, or Maycon will catch a cold.”“I know, honey.” Beto blinks. He goes to the dresser and picks up clean clothes for his son, “Are we going to wear the Spider-Man shirt?”“I want!” Maycon jumps up and down with excitement.Teresa informs her husband, “Beto, one of those beggars who have nowhere to drop dead has appeared. Patrick made a fuss about being the bum who accosted him and Rosemary at the entrance to the supermarket.”Beto chuckles, “Is Pat feeling threatened by a homeless guy?”“I don't know why so much jealousy if he hasn't asked our daughter on a date yet,” Teresa says jokingly.Beto scratches his head, “My daughter has to go to college first… but I admit I wish she had her first relationship with Pat. He seems like a

The next day, the Mountain family met again to discuss the plan which backfired. Melissa, once again, was excluded.In Daryl's apartment, the radio in the living room was playing “It Wasn't Me” by Shaggy, but Diane turned it off with anxiety and nervousness.Maggie and Bernardo enter and meet her, Daryl, and Kelvin.“We arrived!”“Sit down, people.” Daryl invites them in and sits in the armchair, “Let's get started. As I said yesterday over the phone, unfortunately, we’ll have to adopt that drastic alternative.”“Cancel the plan and get rid of Gabriela?” Maggie sits up, worried, “Daryl, she'll never accept this.”“I talked to my wife.” Bernardo adds, “It’s very likely that Gabriela will be furious with us and vent everything to Josias.”Daryl responds calmly, “If she says everything we've done, besides her never marrying Josias again, he won't accept the child even though it's his. Gabriela would have done it if she wasn't pregnant, but now she has the baby's future to think about.”K
Building My Life Chapter 2122 Campaign for Divorce
Josias is embarrassed to bring up the subject of the death of his wife and son in such a tragic way. And it all started with a suggestive article in Maggiezine...“I visited Daryl and also questioned him about the 1999 turmoil.” Josias turns to William, “That article implying that Kate and Claudio were cheating on me was the trigger.”William narrows his eyes, “Did they ever tell you WHY such a paper was approved? It doesn't seem to me that they wanted to harm you on purpose. Katherine must have done something BEFORE that, and we don't know about it.”Josias puts a hand to his forehead, “If you must know, Will, I don't care about that anymore. Kate is dead, she's no longer here to tell us what the matter was. The Mountain family could be honest with me and say what actually happened, but I feel like they are holding it back.”“So, there is no doubt.” William faces Josias, hoping he will conclude that the Mountain family is to blame.“No, there's no doubt about it.” Josias finishes dri

Kelvin finds Melissa in the halls of LCN with episode scripts in her hands. Next to her, two supporting actresses commented on her scenes.“You two will have more screen time. Seize the opportunity. If everything goes well and the public likes you, maybe Daniel Oliveira can change your contract, from recurring to main cast?”The eyes of budding actresses shine with emotion, “God hear you, Melissa! Thanks for helping us!”Kelvin feels another sinking in his heart. Is he doing the right thing in asking Melissa to quit her job because of what they've plotted against Katherine?Melissa sees him and approaches him, “Honey! Hello, how are you?”“Melissa, I urgently need to talk to you.”“Let's go to my office.” Melissa leads him into the enclosure.As they enter, Kelvin views the 'Best Writer' Press trophy that Melissa won last year. He feels a lump in his throat and his decision gets harder.“Speak, my love.” Melissa sits down.Kelvin stands up, “Melissa, we have to do something, but I won
Building My Life Chapter 2124 Saying Goodbye
Kelvin takes offense at Dora suggesting he would stay away from the family, “What do you mean by that, Dora? Of course, my family will come along!”Caroline is shocked, “Are we moving to Victoria?”Melissa sits next to her on the sofa, “Yes, daughter! Let's live close to Ray Chaves, see Junior, Cristina, Moacyr, Uncle Adolfo, and Aunt Vânia... wouldn't that be nice?”Caroline wonders, “Yeah, that would be nice... but what about the rest of our family?”“We’ll see each other on school holidays and at the end of the year, Carol.” Kelvin argues, “I’ll also miss the direct contact, as I’ll be alone in the capital while my brothers remain here. But the restaurant is doing very well and we cannot miss this opportunity.”Caroline looks at her grandmother, “I was hoping to work with Aunt Maggie and Mary.”Melissa convinces her, “Carol, you and Mary need to go to Journalism College in Victoria. Sooner or later you would have to move to the capital. Why don't we get on with it sooner?”Dora nod
Building My Life Chapter 2125 Chicken Carcass
Josias has the odd feeling that Melissa has brought Caroline along to make it easier for him to accept that they are leaving Lagoon City.So, he continues to chat with Caroline and totally ignores Melissa, “What about your Mom's soap opera?”“Mom will talk to the LCN guys tomorrow. And we're going to have a little farewell party. Will you appear?”“No, daughter. We better say goodbye here.” Josias feels his voice trembling.“OK, see you on school holidays, Daddy!” Caroline hugs Josias once more.“Can I have a few words with your mother, Carol?”“Sure! I'm going to the mansion to say goodbye to Alan.” Caroline breaks the hug and leaves the lounge.Melissa's peace of mind went down the drain when Josias proposed to his daughter to leave.After the door closes, Josias shoots Melissa a stern look, “So you've decided to leave?

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.

Melissa and Mary visit the Mountain Café.“A guava juice for me, Mr. Mountain!” Mary requested, smiling sweetly.“Of course, my princess!” Rodrigo replied, thinking Mary was very adorable. “Neil will make a delicious cup for you.”“Thank you. 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? Behaving?”“Cont

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. They—”The doorbell ran

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

Chapter 3144 Benjamin Requests a Transfer
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

Chapter 3143 Return
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

Chapter 3141 Respect the Mourning
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.

Chapter 3140 Let’s Request a Transfer
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
