Building My Life Chapter 2391 Amoreira is Interested
Reuben is surprised at the possibility of moving in with his mother. He clears his throat and starts expressing his doubts.“Guys, I don’t mean to be rude. But, would that be the best idea? I’m turning eighteen next year, and I intend to marry Caroline. My mom can get in the way of the process, don’t you think?”Isabel takes her grandson’s hand, “Reuben, we believe your mother will need help and support. She was a long time without having your coexistence. At least, while you’re still engaged to Caroline, you can live here or somewhere else.”“Don’t you think it would be better for her to live here?” Reuben looks around.“We don’t know how she’s going to react to living back in Green Park.” Francisco says, “We can invite her to live here as a test. If she adapts, she can choose another house. The fact is, she’s going to want to be independent, and it’s up to you, Reuben, to decide whether you move in with her or not.”Reuben still has doubts, “People say I’m a lot like my father. What
Building My Life Chapter 2392 What Josias Didn’t Do
At Crystal Blue, Josias is smiling mysteriously, waiting for William to confess to his fashion show antics instead of him bringing up the subject.William continues to stare at the menu without choosing a dish, “Hmm... Melissa told me something that intrigued me.”“What she said?” Josias asks, holding back from laughing.“She said you didn’t do anything to fix the shame that was laid down by Mrs. Vasquez.” William continues to stare at the menu, “No wonder the Vaztrans company is in dire straits.”“Vaztras is run by her husband.” Josias corrects William.William doesn’t give up and looks up, “I imagine she must opine and poke her nose into everything, undermining Mr. Vasquez’s authority as employer and husband. Anyway, she must have had a hard time when Rodrigo found out, huh?”Josias pretends to jump on William’s bandwagon, “I don’t know, Will. I went backstage and saw that the Claudio Guzman sticker was still there. Afterward, I saw Rodrigo getting ready and being made up in the com

Josias trips over his desk, causing his computer monitor to wobble, and some personal objects to fall. He drops his glass of whiskey, shattering to the floor with an ominous crash.Ivan just faces Josias’s shocked reaction with a victorious smile, envisioning the arrest warrant that he will have edited to drag Josias to the joint.Josias is careful not to step on the shards and turns to Ivan, “What kind of bad joke is this, dude?”“DUDE?” Ivan breaks the smile and is outraged, “You never manage to keep your composure, eh, Mr. Rocha?”Josias doesn’t care, “I want to know how you consider me a suspect, and then ask the suspect if he had the victim killed, hoping I’d answer ‘yes’!”Ivan shrugs, “Sometimes we ask that question just to get a reaction.”Josias rages upon realizing he’s fallen for the trap, “Hey, the fact that I reacted with surprise—”“It means you are to blame.” Ivan completes with a provocative smile.“I had my back to Cláudio Guzman!” Josias screams.“I know.” Ivan cross
Building My Life Chapter 2394 That’s What Friends Are For
Josias now receives Raymond in his office. Both hug each other fervently.“Ray, I haven’t had a chance to speak to you one-on-one during the fashion show yet. I’m sorry, but I’ve been very busy.” Josias apologizes.The hug is broken, and Raymond comments, “Don’t feel guilty. I imagine that your routine became more tumultuous after the terrorist attack. So, any clues?”“Yes, we have a clue!” Josias goes to the drinks table to make Raymond a drink, “I’m the prime suspect, according to the police station!”Raymond’s jaw drops, “It can’t be! Josias, you had your back to the model!”“Well, you know, they think I hired the guy so I wouldn’t get my hands dirty.” Josias hands Raymond a glass of brandy.“This is ridiculous. I read everything about Cláudio Guzman. He gave you a headache in 2001 concerning Katherine and J.J.’s deaths. He’s the one who might try to kill you, not the other way around!”“Exactly!” Josias goes to the desk, “But don’t worry about it. I’m under the protection of God,
Building My Life Chapter 2395 Examining the Photos
At Rocha Constructions, it’s Thierry’s turn to visit Josias. The young photographer hands over the envelope that Daryl has been eagerly coveting.Josias takes the envelope and removes the contents. He looks at the pictures with pleasure and interest.Afterward, he looks at Thierry and notices the uneasiness in his face, “Is there a problem, Thierry? Don’t you want to sell me the pictures?”“I’d give you the pictures for free.” Thierry responds, “The problem is, I ran into Mr. Mountain, and he wanted the pictures too.”“Mr. Daryl Mountain?” Josias is startled.“Yes.” Thierry pours himself a drink, “He got more excited as soon as I said the pictures were for you.”Josias chuckles, “Don’t worry about the imbecile. He only asked you to buy the pictures because he knew they were for me.”Thierry takes a sip of whiskey, “It’s not like that, Mr. Rocha. This isn’t the first time Mr. Mountain has asked me for pictures of you. The first time, he asked for a picture of your son dancing with Miss

At Crystal Blue, Daryl and Patrick continue to talk. “YOU want to quit, Pat? That is the most meaningless talk I have ever heard in my entire life.” Patrick is wide-eyed, “You have to believe me, Mr. Mountain! Your child is becoming arrogant and dangerous! Soon, even you won’t be able to control him!” Daryl refuses to believe the accusations, “My son is just reacting to years of teasing from you. Pat, if you spent your energy making peace and living peacefully with my son, we wouldn’t even have this conversation.” “OK, OK, I promise I won’t let my job down anymore when it comes to Felipe being the maître d’!” Patrick gestures and starts to sweat. “And you promise to live peacefully with my son, being friends?” Daryl raises an eyebrow. Patrick is silent for long seconds, then answers, “I need to get back to work, sir.” Patrick leaves the office and slams the door shut like he’s running away from some dinosaur. When Daryl

At the General Hospital, Cláudio is still resting in his hospital bed, attached to devices and an oxygen mask that guarantee his survival. The electrocardiogram monitor leaves doctors at ease with heartbeats at normal levels.“It’s only a matter of time before he wakes up.” The doctor who operated on him reports this to the nurses. Everyone leaves the room.In the hallway, Josias appears and addresses the team, “Good morning, doctor. How is the patient?”“He’s still the same, Mr. Rocha. Thank you for your concern. Few people come to visit him. It seems he has no relatives alive or living nearby.”“I had some boys investigate.” Josias alludes to the ‘boys’ of Tiago, “We found no living parents or brothers who live far away. I believe that Cláudio is already a guy alone in the world...”Perhaps this explains Cláudio’s eagerness to have a rel

Josias smiles like the king of the jungle while Ivan feels like a zebra subject.“OK, you already came here and showed off in front of me. Typical of narcissistic people like you.” Ivan asserts, “Now excuse me, we need...”“I won’t excuse you!” Josias exclaims, “We need to talk about what I discovered in the photos taken from the fashion show!”Amoreira is interested, “What photos, Mr. Rocha?”Josias approaches the detective, “I ordered Thierry Lafayette to take some pictures of the fashion show for me. I found the way in which he photographs and edits interesting. So he handed me an envelope, I went through them, and found something interesting in one.”Amoreira perks up, “Mr. Rocha, I also asked for some pictures of Young Mr. Lafayette and discovered something interesting.”Ivan feels lost, “Don’t tell me you two...?”Josias turns to Ivan, removes the photograph in question, and takes it out of his pocket, “It was this photo.”Ivan, against his will, stares at the photo and comes to

Chapter 3210 Josias Junior in Action
At Vaztrans, William questioned Sofia about the company’s finances, which are now in order since her parents stopped interfering.“Uh, I think the explanation is simple. With my father no longer here, we don’t have that urge to prove we’re always the best public transportation company in the city.” Sofia sat face to face with him. “I remember my father would always freak out when people mocked the old bus models we had.”“Yeah, and he would waste money buying expensive buses that we couldn’t afford to maintain.” William accepted this explanation for now. “So, Sofia, you wouldn’t be offended if I said your father was just playing at being a manager?”Sofia made a face. “My father managed Vaztrans since its inception. I’m here to continue his legacy.”“I know you’ll do a good job.” William leaned back in his chair. “I just want us to keep things this way now that we’re in control.”Sofia crossed her arms. “Great. I hope that doesn’t mean any insinuation on your part – or from that littl
Chapter 3209 Time to Look for Other Girls
Vaztrans, morning. Brand new buses come in and out of the garage, with drivers and fare collectors smiling in their new uniforms. In William’s office (which used to belong to Olivia), he scratched his forehead while researching and checking the financial spreadsheets. Sofia, greeted like a diva by the staff, entered the office. “Good morning to you too! Have a good day at work!” She approached the desk. “Good morning, Will! What’s with that long face?” “I’m not making a long face. I’m making a face of someone who doesn’t understand this accounting,” William replied, still looking at the monitor. “What’s the problem? Are we broke again?” Sofia’s eyes widened. “No.” William finally looked at her, with a mischievous smile. “We have so much slack that we could pay off one of the installments of the loan we took from Josias if we wanted to.” Sofia continued with wide eyes. “Oh, that’s incredible, right?” William kept smiling. “Sofia, you’re not getting my astonishment. The point is
Chapter 3208 A Night in the Cell to Reflect
At Rocha Constructions, Josias and Alan faced a dilemma: should they start a war against the Borges brothers? Thierry noticed their initial hesitation. “If it’s too much for you two, forget it. J.J. and I will manage on our own. Maybe Daryl can help us.” The mention of Daryl made Josias react, “Wait a minute, Thierry. We never said we wouldn’t help you. On the contrary, I feel the same way: that truck was deliberately sent against the supermarket to cause that accident.” “Yeah, a way to force J.J. to choose between focusing on the farm or on Vasconcelos. No one but the Borges brothers was interested in that.” Thierry smiled slightly. “The problem is we have no proof.” Josias put his hands in his pockets. “The truck was on the street, there are no surveillance cameras nearby.” Alan asked, “But J.J. decided to stay with Vasconcelos, right?” “Exactly. That was our way of getting back at them.” Josias nodded. “So, our only form of investigation will be to observe how Reynaldo Borges
Chapter 3207 The Law Must Be Obeyed
Just out of spite, David was taken to the Happiness Slum police station, where Dylan was now interrogating him and pressing him against the wall. David was shaking while handcuffed, thinking he might have a chance to escape. “What is going on here? LET ME GO! This station is not equipped to handle my problems!” Dylan sat at the desk, keeping one of his subordinates nearby, standing by the door. “Oh really? It just so happens that it’s the opposite: Commissioner Tavares said he doesn’t want to see your face at the headquarters!” David was horrified by the remark. “What does that mean? We can’t allow such abuse! Call my dad immediately!” Dylan, grinning with delight, leaned back in his chair. “Mr. Souza, it was your father who ordered us to remove you from the Rocha Constructions building.” “That’s IMPOSSIBLE! My dad never ordered Alan’s arrest!” “Isn’t it because Alan Campos Rocha has never given the police any reason to detain him?” Dylan asked ironically. “And on what charges
Chapter 3206 Is Daniela Pregnant?
At the management office of Lafayette Supermarket, Thierry was signing a fat check for a member of the Cintra family. The man, who was the victim’s brother, was staring at everyone with disdain and arrogance. “You have to understand that we can no longer shop at this supermarket, right?” he kept saying. “My poor brother used to come here because the wine prices were cheaper, but now... we’re going to have to resort to the little store closer to home, even if it costs more!” Nadia was outraged. “Mr. Cintra, don’t be arrogant!” Mr. Cintra raised his chin at Nadia. “I can sue you for this too, you know?” “No, you can’t,” Thierry emphasized, tearing the check from the invoice and hastily extending it to him. “Take it and get out of our sight!” “You are in the wrong and still want to play the victim!” Mr. Cintra simply felt entitled to cluck. “Thank goodness my brother didn’t die! Otherwise, we would tear this crappy supermarket down! It was much better when the Ramos family ran this
Chapter 3205 At the Height of Despair
The next day, Daniela was talking to Dr. Matthew Hogan at General Hospital. “Alright, Daniela,” he said with a smile. “I hope we don't find anything serious in your tests.” “Could I... be pregnant?” Daniela asked in a whisper. Talking to Matthew inevitably reminded her of Silvana Hogan, his mother and a famous obstetrician. “My mother is now retired and enjoying the Bahamas,” Matthew said kindly. “If your test results indicate you’re expecting, we’ll refer you to the appropriate department.” “Thank you so much, Dr. Hogan!” Daniela extended her hand, and Matthew shook it. A few moments later, Daniela was walking through the corridors, thinking about the possibility of being pregnant. She even placed her right hand on her belly, already imagining herself carrying the heir of the Reis family. She smiled mischievously as she recalled the countless nights of passionate love where Pedro ravaged her mercilessly, only stopping when the alarm rang the next morning. How could she not
Chapter 3204 Someone is Not Feeling Well
Melissa worried about her parents' objection regarding the twins getting involved with their paternal family. "Mom, Dad, I understand your concern." Melissa broke the silence. "But in a way, they're right. I don't have the right to completely cut them off from Kelvin. Besides, they have another little brother." Dora looked at her wristwatch. "At this hour, Mary must be in the penthouse, keeping an eye on Anthony." "Oh, did they say they were going to do that?" Melissa smiled slightly. "Yes, someone texted them asking for it. Probably Kelvin," Simeon replied seriously. Dora explained, "Daughter, let's hope Daryl doesn't take advantage of the closeness to poison our grandchildren's minds." Melissa was alarmed. "What are you saying, Mom? I won't allow that!" "No, I know you won't allow it." Dora frowned. "That's why I hope you visit Kelvin and set some boundaries." "If I bring this up, I'll unintentionally be starting a stupid war," Melissa retorted. "They know their boundaries.
Chapter 3203 Long-Term Consequences
At Rocha Constructions, Sofia is eager to prove that she was right all along about Suzy. She leaned back against Alan again, wanting information. "Dear, before we were interrupted, you were saying something about me being right to be suspicious of Suzy Cogo. I knew that smartass was planning something!" Alan scratched the back of his neck. "I feel like she was the one Everaldo mentioned in the prophecy." Sofia's eyes lit up. "That's true! Suzy is the only one investing out there! Do you think she will want a slice of Rocha Constructions?" "I sincerely hope my dad doesn't agree to sell any shares. I won't do that. Better warn Caio." Alan became serious. "Well, I'll have to put up with her at Vaztrans." Sofia sighed, feeling discouraged. Alan turned to his wife with curiosity. "Speaking of which, dear, we haven't heard any news about Vaztrans being in trouble this year. Did you finally manage to control the spending?" Sofia looked confused. "Uh, I don't know what you're talking a

Sofia reacted, obviously pleased, when none other than her husband stated that she was right.Unable to resist any longer, she sat on Alan's lap and delivered THAT delicious, passionate kiss.When the kiss ended, Alan was perplexed, eyes wide."What was that for?" He asked, lost."You silly!" Sofia began to laugh. "This is your reward for believing in me. And tonight, you'll have another reward that's under my panties—"The last phrase was clearly heard by Caio, who was opening the door at that moment.Sofia quickly bounced off Alan's lap, trying to disguise the intimacy. Caio blushed slightly, smiling awkwardly.Alan smiled nervously. "Wow, everyone decided to start early in 2012! Good morning, cousin."Caio avoided looking at Sofia. "Good morning, cousin. Do we have any updates regarding our annual meeting?""My dad appointed me president – again." Alan's cat-like grin indicated that he wasn't complaining. "And we'll have all the important people, just like last year."Caio's face g
