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?”

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
Building My Life Chapter 2641 Happiness Slum Police Station

A round of applause for the one who helped us to make the dream possible: the president of Rocha Constructions, Josias Rocha!”Everyone applauds Josias more enthusiastically than the mayor. 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. Beto has to control his emotions so he doesn’t have a heart at
Building My Life Chapter 2642 Josias Offers Job
Kelvin decides to let Josias in. “Come in, my comrade. Let’s see what you have to say.”“I guarantee you won’t regret it.” Josias smiles slightly, “Is the interested party here?”“Now that he’s unemployed, he’s in his room. 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. He wants to win over the daughter of the man who is trying to help him.Kelvin asks the question, “What did you find for Felipe, Josias?”Josias stares at Felipe. “Do you have anything against manual labor?”Felipe ponders for a few seconds to respond. “Are you offering me a job at your company’s construction sites?”“I hope I
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
Building My Life Chapter 2644 Exclusivity Agreement
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 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

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,
