Building My Life Chapter 2606 Amoreira and Adelaide are Sweethearts
At Marçal Publishing, Bernardo kisses his champion son’s forehead. The trophy is on his desk, clearly visible for everyone to see.“My son, writing champion. I predict a bright future for you, Henrique.”“Thanks, Dad.” Henrique is excited. It seems like he is still assimilating the victory, “I’m glad you liked it.”“Of course. You’ll one day replace your old father and run this company, correct?” Bernardo gestures around his office.“You can bet on that!” Henrique hugs his father.Maggie enters the office and smiles at the familiar scene. “How beautiful to see father and son like this...”Henrique breaks the hug, “Mommy, did you come to tell Dad about Aunt Addie?”“What about ‘Aunt Addie’?” Bernardo asks curiously.Maggie takes the trophy, “Son, she’s waiting for you to leave with her. Remember, put the trophy on the shelf in the living room.”“OK. Bye, Dad!” Henrique kisses Bernardo’s cheek and leaves.Bernardo grins, “My puppy. And to think that your mother said he was Jack Motta’s
Building My Life Chapter 2607 Jane’s Shattered Dreams
At Café Montanha, it seems that Isabel has some proposal to make to Adelaide and Amoreira.“What are you talking about, Mrs. Mountain?” Adelaide asks interested.“Mrs. Cardozo, would you allow me to make a storyline for my soap opera based on what you went through?”Adelaide and Amoreira’s eyes widen.“Why do you want to do this?” Adelaide is intrigued.“Because your life story has everything a good soap opera needs: drama, adventure, strong emotions! And most importantly: a happy ending.”“My husband was killed by a car and my sister fell from the balcony of a penthouse!”“For that reason: the villains were punished and the protagonist was rewarded with true love.” Isabel points to Amoreira.Amoreira is embarrassed, “Mrs. Mountain, I don’t know if we want our lives exposed on TV.”Isabel pulls up a chair and sits next to the couple, excited as a cosmetics saleswoman, “Hey, I’m not thinking about using your real names or casting actors who look like you! I’m just thinking about writin
Building My Life Chapter 2608 Reuben Follows the Protocols
At Isabel’s house, she is already at the computer feverishly typing the general outlook of the storyline she wants based on the dramatic experience of Adelaide and Ulysses. Afterward, she intends to bring together her junior writers to break down the plot into several episodes, among other preparations.Before that happens, Dora shows up at her house, “Is anyone home?”“Come in, Dora!” Isabel calls her.Dora finds her longtime friend typing intently, “Oh, but I’m going to disturb you like this...”Isabel stops typing, “Not exactly. How can I be of help, my friend?”“Melissa informed you?” Dora approaches the computer, “We’re throwing Nadia and Rod’s baby shower. Do you want to help us with that wonderful walnut cake that only you know how to make?”Isabel feels her stomach growl at the prospect of eating walnut cake, “Hmm... Sure, let me handle it. It’ll be a pleasure.”“I imagine Francisco is very excited. He will be a grandfather. What about Jack and Veronica?”Isabel shakes her hea
Building My Life Chapter 2609 Felipe Does Not Live Up to His Role
Octavio almost went deaf from his crazy wife’s scream.“Jane, keep your voice down. I’m in my office.”“And?” Jane cackled, “So I can speak in the desired tone!”“No, my helpers will listen to you!” Octavio reasons with her, “Why do you want me to talk to Josias?”“Elza doesn’t want to recommend me as a replacement!” Jane screams at the top of her lungs, “She’s thinking of other candidates to be the hotel’s next manager!”“And that’s what she’s supposed to do, it’s her prerogative.” Octavio explains patiently, “She can’t give the impression that you’re the favorite. It needs to be fair.”“Fair? Is there anyone more qualified than me?” Jane disdains the others.Octavio tsk with his tongue, “Honey, you took the promotion for granted just because we are friends with Josias. It’s not quite like that. Josias is my best friend, but I won’t take advantage of the bond for personal favors. I hope Elza isn’t picking up on your screams, or she’ll become even more convinced that you’re not qualif
Building My Life Chapter 2610 Olivia Will Burn the Sandwiches
In Jane’s office, she felt extremely offended by Elza’s question.“How absurd, woman! Is it so difficult to understand that I want to be your replacement? I didn’t think I needed to be more obvious, I was afraid of scaring you with my frankness!”Elza shakes her head, “I’m sorry, Jane. But I couldn’t just give you my position without figuring out if you’re ready. And remember: my son will have the final say.”“You can put in a good word of me to Josias.” Jane blinks.“He knows you’ve been my helper since the beginning.” Elza explains patiently, “But you’re still young, and you have Augusto to raise. What would happen if you got pregnant again?”“I won’t be, I swear!” Jane pleads, “And as for Augusto, well, he’s already big, he’s already going to school...”“I know. But when I started working as general manager of this hotel, the fact that João Paulo was already finishing high school and going to college made it easier for me. Don’t worry, Jane, it’s not decided yet. But if you don’t h

At Crystal Blue, Cláudio and Caroline talk in his office.“Tell me what ails you, my friend.”“Did you change the decor?” Caroline narrows her eyes.“I didn’t know you used to come to this office when the other one worked here.”Caroline smiles slightly, “I must have come in once or twice when I was talking to Felipe. Anyway, I wanted to know what happened with the photos. Did you get any more?”“No.” Cláudio smiles lightly.“And you continued to pervert Mrs. Vasquez?”“Neither. It seems like she got scared and stopped lusting after me.”Cláudio turns on the computer and sits at the desk, “What about you, Carol? How did your situation with Sofia resolve?”“We still haven’t spoken, but my father said we should cool down and make up later,” Caroline says with displeasure.“Your father is a wise man.” Cláudio smiles kindly.“He should have been wise enough to realize that the Vasquez family cannot be trusted.” Caroline crosses her arms, “If he knew the truth... He said he would call off
Building My Life Chapter 2612 The Third Boy
In the canteen of the Teodoro building, Rosemary and Thierry continue to talk.“Rose, can we start our story again?” Thierry asks lovingly, “Last year, Caroline showed up at my house informing me that you asked for me. That means you don’t hate me, correct?”“No. Time has helped me forgive and forget.” Rosemary smiles.“Excellent. What about Patrick?”Rosemary is wary, “I haven’t heard good things about him. I heard he’s the new maître d’ at the Crystal Blue. My congratulations to him.”Thierry nods, “Yes, he is very well off. But he doesn’t care about you. I’m just afraid he’ll change his mind when he sees us together.”“If that happens, we won’t care.” Rosemary frowns, “I’m not going to give reason to those who only value it when they lose it.”“OK. Let’s take it slow for now. How about dinner at my mansion? Maybe my parents would like to get to know you better.”“It will be a pleasure. I’ll be waiting.”Rosemary and Thierry stand still for a while, and then he decides to give her a
Building My Life Chapter 2613 Now, It’s Official
Josias enters Rocha Constructions and is greeted by all the employees. “Hello, Mr. Rocha! Congratulations!” “We wish your beautiful daughter lots of happiness!” “When is the engagement date?” Josias is amazed. “Engagement? They’re still dating, folks.” The employees laugh, thinking Josias is joking. But Josias is genuinely surprised to hear everyone talking about Reuben and Caroline more effusively. Didn’t they already know the couple was an item? As he passes Reuben’s desk, Josias nods, beckoning him to come in. “Uncle Josias, I—” “Any updates on you and Caroline?” Josias asks, heading straight to the drinks table. Maybe he needs a drink... “I formalized our relationship in the most dramatic, traditional, and cheesy way there is. I felt like I was in Grandma Isabel’s soap opera.” Reuben jokes. Josias pours himself some brandy. “Very good. Here’s to you and my little princess.” Reuben doesn’t dare help himself. “Is everything okay, uncle?” Josias takes a few sips, “Everyth

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?

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

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

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
