Building My Life Chapter 2637 Things Seem to Be Resolved
Cláudio is in his office, watching the commercial on the Internet with a victorious smile. The commercial was barred to anyone under 18 and he had to prove his identity before accessing it.“Wow, if after this commercial I’m still single, then there’s something wrong with me!”The door opens and Kelvin says angrily, “Yes, you don’t hold back on getting revenge!”Cláudio is startled and looks at the door with wide eyes. “YOW! What are you doing here?”“Don’t think I never came to this place.” Kelvin approaches him.Cláudio quickly pauses the video and opens another window to disguise it.Kelvin smiles mockingly, “What happened? Were you accessing immoral websites? Does your mother know about your perverted taste?”“It’s none of your business what content I browse!” Cláudio stands up, “I imagine you came to complain about your nephew, huh?”With the door ajar, Josias stops it and watches the conversation from here.“Yes, I heard he resigned. What did you do to stop such madness?”“ME?”
Building My Life Chapter 2638 Not Everyone Is Happy
Olivia and Erasmo are ecstatic with the turn of events. If before they felt that everything was lost, now their hopes have been renewed.Father, mother, and daughter collectively hug.“Congratulations, daughter! You applied my advice!” Erasmo exclaims excitedly.“I just understood Alan’s side, Dad.” Sofia breaks the hug, wiping away tears of emotion.Olivia was also crying, “How emotional... I thought we lost everything.”“No way. It won’t be sexy pictures of my man that will separate me from him.” Sofia shakes her index finger. “And what’s more, if this continues, I’d rather make my own collection.”Olivia and Sofia smile in complicity.Erasmo, however, becomes serious. “Calm down, ladies, let’s not be vulgar. It was just an advertising campaign. The next photo of Alan will be wearing a pinstripe suit, in his father’s office. The people of Lagoon City cannot mistake him for a gigolo.”“What’s that, my dear...” Olivia protests, smiling.“Dad, don’t worry. I don’t think Alan will want

At the Lafayette mansion, Thierry meets Rosemary in the living room. Ingrid had left to put the couple at ease.“Hello, Rose. Did you come to thank me for the photo in the magazine?” Thierry smiles gently.“Yes. It looked magnificent. What did you do?” Rosemary asks curiously.Thierry sits next to her, “I added a filter. I’m happy to see the result pleasing the public... especially you.”“I started signing some magazines for some tenants.” Rosemary giggles, “I’m becoming a celebrity because of you.”“You deserve this, Rose,” Thierry speaks gallantly.“Wouldn’t you have a problem if I actually became famous?” Rosemary asks cautiously, “Your father and mother informed me of the previous visit.”“Sofia Vasquez.” Thierry sighs impatiently, “What the hell. How can Alan put up with a grumpy woman like that? I’m aware that her mother is redecorating the entire mansion just because she was jealous of João Paulo and Helen Queiroz’s furniture.”Rosemary laughs. “Oh, God, some petty people. Caro

At Rocha Mansion, Josias is awaiting Hector’s pronouncement. The butler, in turn, is afraid to reveal what happened.“Come on, Hector. I don’t have all day. Did something happen?” Josias insists.“Mr. Rocha... There’s a buzz going on among the residents here. It’s about your son and his girlfriend. It looks like they’re going to take the next step.”“Did they set an engagement date?” Josias is amazed.“Yes. And Mrs. Rocha is worried because she wasn’t consulted. Would you, by any chance...?”Josias shakes his head. No, he didn’t even know that Alan and Sofia made up!“Where is your mistress?”“In the master suite, boss.”Josias nods and heads there.Inside, he finds Melissa in a bathrobe, fresh from the shower and drying her hair with a hairdryer. Her contrite face was reflected in the dressing table mirror.“Good evening, my dear.” Josias greets her.“Good evening, my love.” Melissa answers him, “How was work?”“It was good, as usual.” Josias takes off his suit and tie, “I hear the m

But he didn’t notice.Josias takes the wireless microphone and begins to speak briefly, “Many of you know why I’m interested in this place. It was here, decades ago, where I had to hide after going through the most difficult time that changed my life. I feel like I belong here. So now that I have the means, I couldn’t leave you all behind and not help you in any way possible. Please, accept this police station as proof of my gratitude.”More applauses.

Kelvin decides to let Josias in. “Come in, my comrade.

I’ll call him.” Kelvin goes to Felipe’s room.Josias resists the temptation to sit in Kelvin’s armchair. He notices that the piece of furniture has been changed. Daryl probably took his seat to Victoria.When sitting on the sofa, Felipe appears, wearing a tank top and dark blue sweatpants. “Good morning, Mr. Rocha. You’re back...”“I said I would help you, Felipe.” Josias smiles kindly.Felipe sits on the other sofa with conflicting emotions.

Building My Life Chapter 2643 Someone Is Incredulous
Adelaide showed Amoreira the key to a commercial office. They were both in her apartment.“What’s that, sweetheart?” Amoreira was on the couch reading the latest issue of Maggiezine.“This is a copy of the key to the new Cardozo Perfumes office. Let’s open a spot to establish a base here. Business is booming, dear!”“Really? And who will take care of the headquarters in Linhares?” Amoreira is curious, leaving the magazine in his lap.“My relatives and relatives of the late Ulysses.” Adelaide sits next to him, “I’ll stick around so we can be together.”Amoreira smiles widely. The two lean in and share a quick kiss.“How about we check this place out?” Amoreira gets up.“You seem very cheerful and calm after visiting the Happiness Slum police station.” Adelaide notices.“Josias Rocha assured me that my boy will have protection from the boys of the Bento family,” Amoreira speaks exultantly.“I don’t know these guys. What do they do? Are they private security for this important family?” A

William visits the Housing Department to check the old land of the house where he lived.After being served, the civil servant checked his computer, typing feverishly. On the other side, William was amazed at so much to type and research.“That’s a lot of land, Mr. Campos.” The man smiles gently as he types, “Especially in the case of Happiness Slum. Unfortunately, as it was an irregular occupation, it’s more difficult to determine exactly the legality of the claimed lands.”“It’s a shame. My parents were very poor and couldn’t afford a house in a regular neighborhood. But my sister met Josias Rocha, and everything changed.”“Thank God.” The civil servant nods, knowing the story, “Here it is... Well, the land, as expected, has no documentation. The city hall can, at any time, claim that location and do whatever it wants with it. Of course, just three families have decision-making power in the entire favela.”William scratches his chin, thoughtfully. Three families? Could it be the Ben

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.

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

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
