Building My Life Chapter 2483 New Bus Line
Maggie visits Crystal Blue and talks to Daryl about what she decided. They’re both in his office.“Daryl, won’t your new boss mind?” Maggie asks with some mockery.Daryl smiles evilly, “He’s too busy posing immodestly for female perverts to drool over his naked body. Meanwhile, it’s like I never stopped owning this restaurant. The only thing that bothers me is the fact that my son was demoted to waiter and Pat was promoted to maître d’.”“Why?” Maggie’s eyes widen.“Because Felipe stayed at home for several days lamenting what Josias did. Pat took advantage of his absence and offered to replace him. When Felipe returned to work, Cláudio didn’t want to put him back in his position. For me, he did it on purpose.”Maggie shakes her head, “I hope things can get back to normal. Meanwhile, I came to announce something interesting to you.”“What?” Daryl is interested.“Bernie and I decided to do a DNA test on Henrique to shut our mother up.” Maggie frowns, “She keeps saying that Henrique’s f
Building My Life Chapter 2484 Who Really Helped
At the General Hospital, Dr. Silvana is talking to Henrique. Bernardo and Maggie are with him.“Henrique, we’re going to go in that little room to take a little blood from your arm, OK? It won’t hurt or anything.”“Don’t worry, doctor, I’m a man, that’s what my father said,” Henry speaks boldly.Dr. Silvana and Maggie laugh, finding Henry very cute. Bernardo winks at his son approvingly.“OK, let’s get to the procedure then.”Dr. Silvana’s current assistant takes Henrique by the arm and takes him to the laboratory.Dr. Silvana drops her smile and becomes serious with Henrique’s parents, “Does that mean the old witch is back with the lying gossip?”Bernardo sighs, “Unfortunately, doctor. We’re using this trick, hoping she understands once and for all.”“Don’t worry. When she swallows the truth, you will have eternal peace.” Dr. Silvana extends her thumb.“I want to end this nightmare soon.” Maggie takes a deep breath, “And worst of all: she’s gone and we don’t know where she is.”“She
Building My Life Chapter 2485 Reuben the Secretary
On another day, Caroline was talking to Reuben on a bench in Ibrahim Square. Pedestrians passed by, recognizing the couple and smiling at them.Reuben grins, “Honey, they think we’re married when we’re still dating.”“We’re not dating, Reuben.” Caroline is crestfallen.“Then let’s fix this!” Reuben says playfully, “Be my girlfriend, Caroline Campos Rocha.”Caroline smiles weakly at Reuben.“Let’s not joke about serious things, Reuben.”“But I’m serious!” Reuben exclaims, but his playful expression doesn’t convince Caroline, “I love you, Carol, you always knew that.”“Yes, I know. But I’m not in the mood for that right now, Reuben.”Reuben continues smiling, “I know. You’re upset because Alan is dating Sofia.”“I wish it was just that.” Caroline stares at him, “I suspect her family’s intentions. Now they managed to improve the company and save it from bankruptcy. But I wonder what it would be like when Alan and Sofia were married.”“If that happens, Uncle Josias would help, but in retu
Building My Life Chapter 2486 The Princess of Lagoon City Is Already Betrothed
At Ibrahim Square, Felipe and Caroline are surprised by Cláudio’s interference. He’s wearing business clothes and a tie, not looking remotely like the sexy model who poses in only Speedos.“Mr. Guzman, what do you want now?” Felipe rolls his eyes.“I want to know why you’re late for work. Then you complain to your father that I won’t let you be maître d’ at MY restaurant.” Cláudio responds mockingly.Caroline gets scared, “Felipe, are you late for work? Oh, my God, I didn’t want to hold you back!”“No way, Caroline!” Felipe shakes his hands, “Don’t feel guilty. I was the one who wanted to stop and have a chat. But you’re right, I need to go.” He glares at Cláudio.“While you go, I’m going to have a word with the Princess of Lagoon City.” Claudius scoffs, “Now I’m qualified for such a privilege.”“Bye, Carol.” Felipe walks away, swearing under his breath.Caroline turns her attention to the former swimming instructor, “What do you want to talk to me about, Cláudio?”“Carol, weren’t you
Building My Life Chapter 2487 Embarrassment in the Teodoro Building
At Rocha Constructions, Josias announces to Alfred and Octavio that Reuben will work at the company. The gentlemen are walking through the halls, among busy employees.“Guys, Reuben will replace Pollyanna. Go easy on him.”“I don’t understand why.” Octavio jokes, “Reuben is an intelligent guy, and very smart.”Josias smiles at the corner of his mouth, “You know very well that he’ll make a lot of mistakes in his first days as secretary. Don’t make him feel stupid or inferior. Be patient with him.”Alfredo jokes, “If you have patience with him, Josias, so will we.”“I know it sounds strange, but I’m actually hoping Reuben will help my son when he takes the throne.” Josias stops in front of the elevator and presses the button.“Meanwhile, Caio retires me.” Octavio takes a deep breath.“Are you already thinking about retirement, Octavio? It’s still early!” Alfred laughs.“Keep dreaming!” Octavio giggles, “Look how time flies! And to think that I joined this company in 1983 and now it’s 20
Building My Life Chapter 2488 The Truth Everyone Knew
In the hallways of General Hospital, Maggie, Bernardo, Daryl, and Diane are anxiously walking to Dr. Silvana’s office.“I didn’t expect the test to come out so quickly!” Maggie exclaims.“These are the wonders of modern technology, my dear!” Bernardo jokes, “And I couldn’t take the anxiety anymore.”Daryl nods, “Let’s put this doubt to rest once and for all.”“A doubt that is only raised by your mother.” Diane frowns, “How I wish she was around to know—”The four stop their steps as they turn the corridor to the right. They are shocked when they catch Shirley talking and shamelessly flirting with Dr. Braggart. She smoothes her hand over his chest, getting him embarrassed.“Dr. Braggart, how do you get your body in shape?” She licks her lips, thinking she is a twenty-year-old woman sensualizing the man she loves.“M-Mrs. Mountain, I’m a doctor, it’s pretty normal that I take care of my health.” Dr. Braggart tries to be polite.“Congratulations. You look like my man, Frank, equally musc

Olivia later finds herself in another peculiar situation. Not only did she have to dodge her daughter’s questions, but she has noticed someone else dodging: Cláudio.It was a beautiful day when she was crossing Ibrahim Square and noticed her beloved Cláudio trying to jump over a bench to get to the other side of the square, running away from Olivia as if she were Lady Death.“CLAUDIO!” Olivia screams, unaware of how ridiculous and needy she looks, “What do you think you’re doing? You look like you’re trying to get away from me.”Cláudio swallows hard. Melissa’s warning for him to stop the plan echoed freshly in his mind.“I’m sorry, Mrs. Vasquez. I have to work and I don’t have time for your gossip.” He responds distantly.“But I have time to honor Crystal Blue to eat your salmon.” Olivia blinks mischievously.“The salmon is not mine. The recipe was created when the Bento family—”“You got it, don’t be cute.” Olivia laughs, thinking that Cláudio was laughing.“Mrs. Vasquez, what do yo
Building My Life Chapter 2490 Let’s Drop the Formality
Olivia is now in her office talking to someone on the phone. She is impatient with the meeting she had with Cláudio hours before, resulting in something she did not expect.“Yes, the wages of drivers and changers have been increased, as my dear husband promised... Oh, didn’t you read that in the minutes? Well, believe me, my dear... If you don’t pay what we promised, they will go on strike, and we cannot allow our company to go through yet another embarrassment. Do you know how much we sweat to get João Paulo Queiroz off our back?”Erasmo enters with a triumphant smile. He is slightly surprised to find his wife so stressed on a historic day.“OK, my dear husband has appeared.” Olivia puts her hand on the mouthpiece, “Honey, isn’t it true that you promised our employees a pay raise?”Erasmo was going to deny it, but something was stopping him. He smiles fakely and ‘confirms’, “Yes, dear? Isn’t that in the memo?”“They say you forgot to type that part.” Olivia rolls her eyes. Those inco

Chapter 3212 Can We Give a Raise?
Reynaldo and Leonardo were talking in the former’s office, tension and anxiety taking over their voices and expressions. “So you mean the idiot knows everything?” Leonardo asked illogically. “If J.J. discovered our plan, then he’s not an idiot, man.” Reynaldo corrected him. “You understood what I meant!” Leonardo gestured. “And now? What are we going to do?” “Most likely, Josias Rocha knows too.” Reynaldo sighed, discouraged. “As our father said, we need to wait for the dust to settle before we act again.” “We need to make you the majority partner.” Leonardo asserted. “Leo, sometimes I’d prefer if you stayed out of this.” Reynaldo admitted from the bottom of his heart. “You have a career as a lawyer that precedes you. If things get worse, if you’re exposed, not only would you be fired from Damascene Lawyers – no agency would have the guts to hire you.” Leonardo smiled and patted his brother’s right shoulder. “Don’t worry about me. Avenging our father is more important than anyt
Chapter 3211 Sofia Is Innocent
At Vasconcelos Fabrics, the biggest and most controversial conversation J.J. had ever had in his life was taking place. If he saw himself acting all tough and wild with Reynaldo, he wouldn’t recognize himself. Footsteps echoed down the hallway toward the office. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, man!” Reynaldo mustered the courage, hoping someone would come to save him. “Okay, it’s understandable that you don’t want to produce evidence against yourself.” J.J. smiled ironically. The office door opened, and Leonardo appeared. “Is something going on here?” “Hello, big brother!” J.J. continued in an ironic tone. “The coincidence of you showing up here is almost timed!” “Have you been drinking?” Leonardo frowned, and then looked at a terrified Reynaldo. “J.J. isn’t feeling well; it’s best to leave him alone.” Reynaldo’s expression told Leonardo what was really happening. “Alright, I need to talk to you about some matters. Have a good day, J.J.” Leonardo, in an attorney’s po
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.
