Building My Life Chapter 2659 Exerting Your Citizenship
Rosemary and Thierry go to Cardozo Perfumes to talk to Kelvin about the next campaign.They find a beautiful secretary leading them to the representative’s office.“Wow, Mr. Mountain!” Thierry whistles, “How chic! Are the photos making that much profit to invest in staff?”“Yes, and we’ll double our earnings with a new campaign.” Kelvin invites them both to sit down.Then, he moves to the other side of the desk and sits down, “And then, Thierry, I want to hear your ideas.”“Well, Rose became famous with cute and simple photos, reaching the young adult audience.” Thierry begins, “We can continue in this vein. The first photos were of her dancing and vibrating as if she were at a party. I think we can repeat the dose with a little more realism.”“A real party scene?” Kelvin asks interested.“Exactly. That’s what people like nowadays, right? Here in Downtown, there is a nightclub that has been operating since the 80s, called Night Lagoon. Can we contact them?”“Noted,” Kelvin takes out a
Building My Life Chapter 2660 Who Really Worked
At the Night Lagoon nightclub, Kelvin, Maggie, Thierry, and Rosemary look around the place to decide where the best spot for Rosemary to be photographed will be. The nightclub has all the lights on and is empty, which is strange for older people.“Guys, who knew I could go into a nightclub without the deafening music and drunken people bumping into me?” Rosemary asks, making the others laugh.“Don’t say something like that.” Kelvin says good-naturedly, “The owner of this place wants you to always be the party girl, shouldering all the burdens.”Kelvin scratches his ear and Maggie notices it. “What’s up, bro?”“This morning, I took the twins to the beach and they wanted to bury me in the sand.” Kelvin speaks with a smile, showing no resentment towards his children, “They buried me completely, and by the time Melissa realized this, the tidal waves had already advanced past where I was. The people not only had to dig me up but also prevent me from drowning!”“What about the twins?” Thier
Building My Life Chapter 2661 A Message
Early in the morning, Kelvin and Felipe had breakfast. Kelvin realized that Felipe still hadn’t gotten over Alan’s visit.“Felipe, I need you to understand something.” Kelvin speaks, wanting to break the hateful silence, “Alan was raised by me while Josias and Melissa were divorced. Now they are back, but the bond that was formed between the two of us won’t be broken. So don’t feel offended when he comes around to chat.”“I heard you interacted with the twins... and Melissa.” Felipe takes everything to the evil side.“We went to the beach, and the twins buried me in the sand. But when it was time to dig me out, the tide quickly came in, covering me back up. It was a rush to get me out of the sand before I drowned.” Kelvin laughs, remembering the dangerous but fun occasion.“Uncle Kelvin, I see the sparkle in your eyes.” Felipe insists, “You still miss family life. You still love Melissa Campos.”“Her name is Melissa Rocha, and I hope you don’t forget that when you’re in front of her.”

“Caio? CAIO!” William was desperate. He heard gunshots being fired. Caio hadn’t ended the call and was talking to someone, probably at the gate...“Hello, son?” William, desperate, tried to run, but his left leg always let him down. He returned to his seat and took a deep breath.“Something happened...” With his cell phone still in hand, William ended the call and dialed Josias’ number.Josias was in his mansion, in the master suite, dressing formally for another day of work.“Daddy was calmer today, darling,” Melissa comments as she combed her hair. Now she has adopted a shorter, nape-length hairstyle that is easy to maintain.“Yes, fortunately,” Josias thoughtfully comments, “When we get things off our chest, we feel emotional relief. Your father was hiding something important.”“By God, I hope this doesn’t happen again.” Melissa shakes her head, “At his age, we need to be prepared for the worst, but without knowing what’s happening, it’s impossible. If this skin problem was a case
Building My Life Chapter 2663 Caio Is Strong Like His Father
Josias finds the living room of Caio’s house in a normal state. The only thing different is that the sofas were pushed out so the paramedics could attend to Caio.Brigitte couldn’t bear to see the blood and snuggled into her brother’s strong chest.But, to Caio’s relief, such despair was not necessary.“Officer Amoreira, don’t worry. The victim is alive but will need to be taken to the hospital. He was shot in the shoulder.”Josias looked at the open living room window. “Wasn’t that an accurate shot?”“Before we applied a sedative, Mr. Campos said that the shooter was at the gate.” The officer who first responded to the call informs the others of this.“We’re ready to go.” Another paramedic arrived with the stretcher.“Brigitte, go with them.” Dylan comforts her, “I need to stay and investigate here.”“OK, little brother... get these bastards, please!” Brigitte asks through tears and walks away, following the paramedics and her unconscious boyfriend.Josias takes a deep breath, mainta
Building My Life Chapter 2664 Not a Simple Job
At Café Montanha, Helen and João Paulo celebrated the result of the job interview. The radio was playing “Chelsea Dagger” by The Fratellis.Neil served two cups of cappuccino and a plate of diced chocolate-covered sponge cake.“Do I deserve to know the reason for the celebration?” Neilton asks charismatically.“Of course you can!” Helen exclaims happily, “I was hired to be a saleswoman at Cardozo Perfumes!”Neilton is startled, looking at João Paulo.The husband laughs. “Hey, what’s the matter?”“Ehr...” Neilton doesn’t know how to express himself without offending those involved, “How is Mrs. Queiroz going to work as a saleswoman when you’re a great journalist?”“My friend, it seems that you still don’t understand the dimension of the thing.” João Paulo states in good humor, “Cardozo Perfumes is not a small fry company that will pay a measly sales commission salary. It’s becoming popular, expanding the market, and winning over new buyers. You must thank that to Rosemary and my nephew

Pedro is discouraged by the announcer’s announcement. “Oh no, more bad news? Who died this time?”“Calm down, Pete!” Beto approaches the radio to hear well.The announcer announces, “An unidentified man was found dead on the banks of the river that surrounds the city, but there was a large sheet of paper pinned to his clothes with the words: ‘Here is who tried to kill Caio Campos’. The police are being summoned to this mystery. Caio Campos is still in the hospital, recovering from surgery. For more information, stay tuned to us, or follow the LCN newscast...”Suddenly, the radio starts playing “Sin, Sin, Sin” by Robbie Williams.Beto and Pedro look at each other.“Father, do you know what this means?” Peter asks.“Did Tiago’s ‘boys’ attack again?”“In this case, they did justice.” Pedro states with the vehemence of a teenager, “If Caio died... he’s my brother, damn it!”“I know, son.” Beto nods, “I think you should also go to the hospital to share the news—” Beto choked up as he tried
Building My Life Chapter 2666 Neilton Is Honored In the Soap Opera
A few days passed. The police investigation was awaiting Caio's identification to determine whether the person found dead in the river was the same guy who spoke to him at the gate of his house minutes before the shooting.Caio, in turn, rested peacefully in his hospital bed. He was awake and received visitors.William visited his son. “My son is a big man who can even withstand bullets from a gun! Did I create the new Superman?”“Come on, Dad.” Caio laughs, not too loudly so as not to move his shoulder, “I was lucky or divinely protected.”“You always suspected that crazy guy was going to shoot, huh?” William strokes his son’s messy hair.“Always,” Caio nodded, “A guy I’ve never seen in my life was at the gate, waiting for me to just go there to ‘get a message’. If only he was disguised as a postman or messenger... but not even that!”“Tsk.

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,
