Building My Life Chapter 2616 Josias Wants This Wedding Happening?
At Rocha Constructions, Josias meets with Adelaide.The door opens and Reuben leads her inside, “Uncle Josias, the person you were waiting for has arrived. This way, Mrs. Cardozo.”After the door closes, Adelaide approaches Josias with an elegant smile and wearing a sober, graphite-colored suit.Josias stands up and greets the lady. “Mrs. Cardozo...”“I need to marry Hilton soon to change this surname.” Adelaide jokes.“Sit down.” Josias smiles at the joke and indicates the sofa. With his left hand, he points to the drinks table, “Would you like a drink?”“No, thank you. I look forward to hearing what you have to propose.”Josias sits on the other sofa. “How are things at Cardozo Perfumes?”“They’re fine.” Adelaide keeps her smile.“I was wondering if by chance...” Josias smiles like a lynx, “You would need support. Do you know, Mrs. Cardozo, that I helped Vasconcelos Fabrics when the majority partner was also involved in personal scandals? The company continues to prosper to this day
Building My Life Chapter 2617 Forced Peace
At Rocha Constructions, Josias feels offended by Erasmo asking if he wants the marriage between Alan and Sofia as if the answer was negative.“Erasmo, I want this marriage. I believe that Alan and Sofia love each other and deserve happiness. If my daughter Carol can make the situation easier, that would be ideal for everyone. I’m fighting like hell to get the two of them to understand each other, but now you’re telling me that your daughter has decided to be problematic too. And you come to ask ME if I still want the wedding?”Erasmo swallows hard and tries not to lose his poise, “Then let’s arrange for the two of them to talk and make up. I don’t want my daughter to lose her boyfriend because of this.”“Alan has every right to be angry. And it’s now clear that my daughter had nothing to do with the photo. Can we bury this matter?”“For sure. I already buried it.” Erasmo smiles yellowly.“Then let’s toast.” Josias grabs a glass of brandy.Both gentlemen toast the union of their childr
Building My Life Chapter 2618 Josias’s Business Plan
The next day, Erasmo received a call from Josias while he was still sleeping. The cell phone rang, disturbing the Vasquez couple who expected the alarm to ring an hour later.“Argh, darling, who dares to disturb our sleep?” Olivia complains, rubbing her eyes, “Just when we get tangled all night long...”Erasmo was so tired from the amorous and turbulent activity that he hadn’t even put on his pajamas. He answered, yawning at the same time, “Hellooooo...”On the other side, contrasting with the sleeping couple, Josias was already in the office of his mansion, dressed in his microfiber suit, with a stern expression, “Erasmo, good morning. Tell Sofia that I want her in my office at nine in the morning sharp.”“Couldn’t you call her directly?” Erasmo complains.“Would she answer my call?” Josias responds, “Please, pass on the message.”“OK...” Erasmo felt that Josias had already hung up, “Josias wants our daughter to show up at the office at 09:00 sharp. It must be to make peace with Caro
Building My Life Chapter 2619 The Advertising Campaign Begins
Sofia was at Café Montanha, slowly sipping a cup of coffee with milk, and unaware of the scheduled meeting because Erasmo was unable to get the message to her in time.Isabel meets Alan’s girlfriend and has a displeased reaction.“Was she attended to?” She asks Francisco.“Sure, honey. And Neil didn’t spit in the cup.” Francisco responds seriously.“Oh, I can’t be happy about that.” Isabel snorts, “That girl is throwing away a golden opportunity. Any girl who was hoping to be the next Mrs. Rocha would treat the family with respect.”“Looks like the wedding is still going to happen, darling.” Francisco opines.“Let’s find out.” Isabel goes to Sofia’s table, “Excuse me, Miss Vasquez...”“Mrs. Mountain, hello.” Sofia smiles angelically.Isabel doesn’t buy the angelic smile. “Excuse me, but I need to ask about something that was discussed here. Yesterday, your boyfriend came desperate to tell his mother that you were trying to harm Carol and Reuben’s relationship.”Sofia puts the cup on t
Building My Life Chapter 2620 The First Step
Melissa visits Rodrigo and Nadia’s apartment. Nadia was working. Rodrigo, wearing sweatpants and a gray tank top, comes from the kitchen with two cups of coffee.The way the sweatpants and tank top were crooked made Melissa suspect that Rodrigo was missing those pieces and hurriedly put them on, “Did I wake you up, Rodrigo?”“It’s time to wake up.” Rodrigo responds mysteriously, “How can I help you, Melissa?”“Well, Rod, you know that Josias is going to get involved with Cardozo Perfumes, you know?” Melissa takes her cup.“I heard something about it.” Rodrigo sips his coffee.“Well, Josias and Mrs. Cardozo finally talked and he authorized me to put the action plan into practice. You are being invited to be our model for men’s perfumes, what do you think?”Rodrigo smiles gently, “I think that’s wonderful, Melissa. I just wanted a recommendation.”“Yes?” Melissa stays alert.“I had a little talk with my Dad.” Rodrigo explains to her, “And he brought to my attention the fact that I’ll be
Building My Life Chapter 2621 Decoration Dispute
At the Vasquez mansion, the decorator didn’t know how to tell Helen that the owner of the house was in continuous intimate activity with her hubby.“Ehr... Who do I talk to?”“Mrs. Queiroz,” Helen responds in an intimidating tone.“Mrs. Queiroz, unfortunately, Mrs. Vasquez—”“Mrs. Vasquez will be able to answer her.” Olivia suddenly appears from the top of the stairs, wearing a discreet robe and her hair still damp from the shower.Helen raises her eyebrows and half-guesses what Olivia is doing. “Did you take time for lunch?”Olivia walks down the stairs as she asks back, “What are you doing here, Helen? I’m busy, as you can see.”“Yes, I see you’re busy redoing the whole house! Why?” Helen smiles mockingly, “Don’t I deserve to have a fancier dresser than yours?”Olivia waves to the kitchen, indicating that the conversation will continue there. The decorator and other workers focus on what is their business.“No, you don’t deserve it.” Olivia responds sternly, still with her back to H
Building My Life Chapter 2622 Respect My Sister or Forget Her
At the Lafayette supermarket, Nadia is in the management office with countless matters to attend to, but she is smiling, sitting at the desk, massaging her belly as if she were six months pregnant.Rodrigo opens the door and finds her like this. He smiles, “Calm down, anxious mommy.”“Hello, future daddy.” Nadia smiles back, “I can only imagine the moment. I have so many things to resolve and authorize, but I...”“Honey, don’t you want your Dad to take control for now, until you have our baby?” Rodrigo pulls out another chair and sits next to her, “I believe it will become more difficult for you as the pregnancy progresses.”“Perhaps. Let’s think about it later.” Nadia straightens up in her chair, “You look like you came to tell me something.”“Yes!” Rodrigo grins, “Melissa wants me to model for the Cardozo Perfumes advertising campaign. Josias will get involved in the company as a form of support, just as he did with Vasconcelos Fabrics.”“I wasn’t here during the history of Vasconce

Olivia turns to the decorator, “We’ll continue tomorrow. Thank you very much.”The decorator nods and leaves, almost bumping into Sofia. The daughter of the Vasquez family burst into the kitchen like a hurricane.“I don’t even need to guess what happened.”“Where’s my father?” Sofia asks furiously.Olivia swallows hard. “Ehr... He’s resting, daughter.”“OK, when he’s done resting, tell him that Caroline and I are still enemies!”“But that can’t be!” Olivia grabs the decorator’s catalog and slams it on the top of the kitchen island, “You should try to make amends! And now?”“I don’t know! Mom, let’s cancel this whole thing. As much as I love Alan, there’s no point in rowing against the current that sinks us! Even if Josias doesn’t say anything, he’ll say later that his little princess is right! I suggested that Alan and I elope and he told me no!”Olivia wrinkles her nose. “Elope? I want to help you with your wedding dress, daughter.”“Well, now we don’t know if we will have a wedding.

Chapter 3237 Mary’s Quinceañera (1)
That evening, the Rocha Events Hall was elegantly lit, and the soft sound of a waltz floated through the air.It was a joint celebration for Ignacio and Mary Campos Mountain. But more than just a birthday party, it marked Mary’s fifteenth birthday — her quinceañera.Because of that, the entire hall had been reserved for this important and unforgettable occasion.At the center of it all, Mary danced gracefully in a flowing, elegant pink gown that made her look like a miniature bride. Her dance partner, a close friend of sixteen, guided her with surprising poise.Around them, seven other couples glided across the floor, including Ignacio, who partnered with a girl from a well-known family. Henrique, as the cousin of the twins, also had his partner following the waltz.From the sidelines, Kelvin and Karen watched the scene with quiet pride, while Melissa and Josias — especially Melissa, mother of the birthday twins — took in the moment with emotion.“Look at your daughter,” Josias whispe
Chapter 3236 Support Your Wife
In the Mountain Penthouse living room, the atmosphere was far from serene. The heated discussion between Suzy and her boyfriend’s family showed no sign of calming down.“I can’t believe this!” Suzy exclaimed, her voice tight with indignation. “You all actually think I’m in love with Luís Vasquez!”Karen raised an eyebrow, her tone biting. “You’re not?”“OF COURSE NOT!” Suzy barked back. “I’m in love with Felipe — I love him!”Kelvin, unmoved, folded his arms. “Just not as much as you love your money and your... ‘investments.’”Diane lifted a hand, hoping to bring reason to the conversation. “Suzy, I’ve turned a deaf ear to all the gossip about you. I want to believe the best. Please don’t disappoint me.”Suzy’s voice wavered slightly as she responded, “I swear, Mrs. Mountain... Diane... I don’t know why Felipe insists on believing the lies João Paulo QUEIRÓS keeps spinning!”Daryl’s expression darkened. “So the problem lies with the journalist, then. Looks like I’ll have to deal with
Chapter 3235 I Don’t Want Cursed Money
The Mountain Penthouse living room was filled with tension that morning. Everyone was taken aback as the truth behind the fight that had sent Felipe to the hospital came to light.“Well, if that’s how it is...” Daryl began, clearly processing the news.Diane, urgent to defend her son, jumped in. “But wait, why exactly did Felipe and Luís decide to fight?”Suzy’s lips curled into a sly smile. It was time to drop the bomb.“According to my uncle Eugenio,” she began, “Felipe barged into his office and announced that he wanted to break up with me — because my uncle was happy about me being featured on the cover of Maggiezine.”Everyone looked even more stunned.“Wait, what does that have to do with anything?” Kelvin asked, frowning.Suzy explained, “Felipe saw my uncle thanking Luís for sort of encouraging me to accept the interview with Maggie.”Daryl exhaled sharply. “So my son just had a jealous outburst. That’s all it was.”Diane shrugged. “He wasn’t serious about breaking up with you
Chapter 3234 The Girlfriend Showed Up
At the Mountain Penthouse, Kelvin and Daryl were relieved that everything had turned out okay. Diane and Karen were nearby, on the sofas, chatting cheerfully. “God was merciful and allowed our son to live a few more years,” Diane declared. “Now, you both need to rest,” Karen patted Kelvin’s chest. “We slept beautifully while you two were in that sterile lounge.” Kelvin yawned once more. “I think I’ll take my dear wife’s advice; what do you think, Daryl?” “Who said we own the place?” Daryl yawned as well. The ladies laughed at their funny husbands. The doorbell rang. Tony passed through the living room, offering, “I’ll get it.” When Tony opened the door, he was surprised by the visitor. “Miss Cogo?” “How funny, you don’t call me by my first name. Did Felipe manage to talk to you before the coma?” Suzy asked bitterly, without smiling. Tony reacted perplexed by this torrent of unfriendly words. “Uh... Come in, please.” Suzy entered, ready for the storm. “Who is it, big brothe
Chapter 3233 A Surprising Report
The next day, Matthew Hogan entered the General Hospital lounge and found Daryl and Kelvin incredibly exhausted but hopeful. “Doctor, how did it go?” Daryl nearly jumped on Matthew. “Calm down, the patient survived the surgery. It’s just a matter of time before he’s back in his room.” “Oh, thank God!” Kelvin cheered. Daryl couldn’t resist and hugged Matthew. “Thank you so much, doctor!” Matthew smiled, somewhat awkwardly, but aware that it was a common reaction. “You’re welcome, we did everything we could.” “Yeah, I understand.” Daryl released the hug, rubbing his eyes — whether from sleep or wiping away a tear. “It’s going to take a little while. I suggest you both go home and rest a bit,” Matthew said. “I think we’ll do just that,” Kelvin yawned. “Now that the danger has passed, I think I deserve it. Doctor, let us know if anything happens,” Daryl requested, patting the doctor’s shoulder. “I’ll do. And congratulations to you both.” Matthew left the lounge. Kelvin yawned a
Chapter 3232 The Detective I Trust
At the Rocha Hotel, Eugenio and Jake are talking to Suzy about what is happening. Jake was upset. “Suzy, haven’t you gone to visit your boyfriend yet?” “I don’t know if it’s a good idea to show up there right now.” Suzy lowered her head. “The fight happened... here?” Eugenio responded indignantly, “Yes, in my beloved living room. Luís lost his temper when Felipe called him ‘Spanish Stallion.’“ Suzy lifted her head, completely changing her posture. “WHAT? Well, then, the beating didn’t come out of nowhere!” “Come on, sis, don’t go along with this,” Jake advised her. “They’re saying Felipe’s condition is serious.” “Serious is Luís getting teased every single day by the nickname he despises the most!” Suzy exclaimed. Eugenio decided to tell the whole story, “Suzy, there’s a lot more you don’t know.” “Tell me, uncle!” “Felipe, before being assaulted, said he wouldn’t continue dating you, claiming that the Cogo family would always prefer Luís.” Suzy reacted, paralyzed by this inf
Chapter 3231 The Viper of Lagoon City
Rodrigo and Nadia entered the General Hospital lounge, finding Karen and Diane. “We’re here! Where’s Daryl?” Nadia approached the couch. “He went to check with Kelvin for more information,” Diane sniffed. “Thanks for coming.” “We wouldn’t be family if we didn’t show up,” Nadia sat down near them. “And I’m a mother too.” Rodrigo poured himself some coffee. “Any news?” Diane took a deep breath. “Felipe is still awake. Dr. Hogan said the tests revealed a concussion, and they’re now deciding if surgery will be necessary.” “How horrible.” Nadia shuddered. “Well, whether surgery is necessary or not, I hope everything goes well for Felipe.” “Now, I find it strange that Suzy still hasn’t shown up!” Karen frowned. “Did you see her outside?” “No. We thought she was inside or with Daryl,” Nadia replied honestly. Diane shook her head. “No, guys, I can’t believe Suzy would choose to work or handle investments instead of checking on her boyfriend!” Rodrigo took a sip – the coffee wasn’t a
Chapter 3230 The Lady of Lagoon City Makes a Powerful Speech
At Vaztrans, William swallowed hard before answering Sofia’s question.“Sofia, your cousin really went too far this time,” he began cautiously.“What do you mean?” Sofia narrowed her eyes. “I know Luís can be a bit difficult, but—”“Yes, the hot Spanish blood speaks louder sometimes, right?” William took a deep breath. “Luís assaulted Felipe. Daryl rushed to the hospital.”Sofia reacted with her mouth open, holding her breath.Then she composed herself. “How could he do such a thing?”“Do you want to hear my guess?” William asked with a sly smile.“No! It can’t be because of Suzy Cogo!” Sofia ran her hands through her hair as if to pull it out.“It seems we were wrong to have accepted her partnership, huh?” William shook his head.“If she starts to tarnish Vaztrans’ reputation...” Sofia paced around the office. “First, her statement: her reluctance to raise the salary of the employees here. Now, this love triangle that I thought was over...”“Everaldo warned us to be careful with her,”
Chapter 3229 Despair at the General Hospital
At Vaztrans, William and Daryl were discussing the repercussions of Suzy’s article in Maggiezine.“People are accepting Suzy’s apologies and explanations,” William broke the silence, holding a copy.Daryl pursed his lips. “Whatever. Sometimes I think João Paulo is lurking, ready to pounce on anything to throw us into confusion.”“But the salary bonus we promised will be paid, right?” William smirked.“Of course, what choice do we have?” Daryl pointed to the magazine. “She made it clear in the interview. We’re not going to contradict her, are we?”William laughed ironically. “It seems Suzy is going to be the kind of person who does anything to get out of trouble, even if it means contradicting herself.”Daryl’s cell phone rang, and he answered, seeing it was Diane. “My dear is calling. Hello, Di?”Diane was at the hospital entrance, trying to be strong. “Hello, Daryl. We need you at the hospital.”“What happened?” Daryl’s eyes widened.“Luís Vasquez beat our son to a pulp, as they say,
