Building My Life Chapter 2757 Is Karen Not Diabetic?
The next day, Cláudio showed up at his apartment with bags from the bakery and a bright smile. Karen was in the middle of the living room, allegedly working out in the rhythm of Jennifer Lopez’s song “Do It Well.”“Honey, why are you so smiling?” Karen noticed this.Cláudio broke part of his smile. This ‘honey’ and other affectionate expressions that Karen keeps saying don’t cheer Cláudio up.“Well, since you’re curious, I’ll tell you.” Cláudio replied, “I received a call from Quantium Agency while I was passing through the lobby here. They want to see you for a campaign they’re organizing!”Karen stopped ‘dancing’ and opened her eyes wide. “Am I hearing you right? Will I be hired?”“Calm down, Karen.” Cláudio laughs, “First, you’ll talk to them, do an interview, maybe take some photos... but with my thumb extended upwards, you already have one foot in!”“Ah, my love!” Karen hugs Cláudio very tightly, but she is sweaty.“Karen, behave!” Cláudio lets go of her. “Let’s have breakfast fi

At Marçal Publishing, Maggie and Rosemary talk about the favor Beto asked.“I just came from Jane Motta’s house,” Rosemary tells Maggie. “The baby is beautiful. She is a girl and she’ll be called Anne.”“Very interesting,” Maggie responds, gesturing to the chair. “Sit down, Rose. Let’s talk about the favor your father asked of me.”“I’m a little embarrassed to bother you, Maggie.” Rosemary sits down.“Don’t be like that. It’ll be a pleasure to help you. We need to make it clear to people on the Internet that you’re happy and fulfilled as a woman with a kind and attractive guy like Thierry Lafayette. By the way, where is he?”“He’s working in his studio on other projects,” Rosemary replied.“Can we do a story in the studio?” Maggie starts writing down notes in a notepad, “Not only will we have the interview, but you can also promote his studio.”“Hmm... Interesting. I’ll ask him if he approves.” Rosemary smiles widely.“It’s great to see you smile. Your father was very worried when he
Building My Life Chapter 2759 Model Without Bad Influence
At Quantium Agency, Karen took improvised photos in a green setting, striking poses ordered by the agency’s photographer. She smiled, crossed her arms, blew kisses, sat on a stool and crossed her legs, etc. Cláudio was around, smiling at the result. Everything indicated that Karen would be approved and offered a good contract to be part of their cast. Maybe Karen will be able to catwalk in the fashion show that Josias organizes for charity... “There, Karen, congratulations!” The photographer smiled. “You did great! I can’t wait for the photos.” “Thanks.” Karen smiled at Cláudio as if to say ‘I killed it’! Cláudio’s agent leaned in to gossip, “Did you know? Angel Store signed a contract with us and will use our models for their commercials. It seems like Karen would be perfect for this type of commercial.” “Serious?” Cláudio widened his smile. “Does Karen already have a job waiting for her?” “Well, some are turning down work, so there’s room for others.” His agent responded with a
Building My Life Chapter 2760 Octavio, Seducing Sofia?
Cláudio bought the newspaper and was shocked by what he read in João Paulo’s column. Sitting on the bench in Ibrahim Square, his hands were shaking, as if he were going to crumple the pages of the newspaper.“But... Who saw us in the sand... was it Carol? But she protected me! How did these people find out?”Felipe passed by at this moment and heard Cláudio’s last question. He smiled victoriously.“How did the people find out? Obviously, you moaned so loudly that the residents of Sunset Village recognized your breeding dog voice!”Cláudio removed the newspaper from him and glared at Felipe. “You... KID! Was it you?”“It could be anyone. Your presence is stamped on the sands of the beach.” Felipe scoffs, “I better bring chlorine and disinfectant to step on the sand when I go there.”Cláudio smiles evilly, “You’re jealous because you’re still a virgin and you couldn’t convince a girl to moan your name under you on the beach! You’ll never know how good it is to love a woman...”Felipe ge
Building My Life Chapter 2761 One of Us Must Leave
In the next issue of Maggiezine, two important articles appeared in the magazine. The first, the cover story, showed Octavio and Jane smiling with Anne Motta on her mother’s lap. On the inside pages, there was an interview with Rosemary and Thierry, revealing that they were in a serious relationship.Josias read the magazine with pleasure in his office at Rocha Mansion.Melissa came in and found him engrossed in reading. “Do you like it, darling?”“Yes. Rosemary has never been as happy as she is now. Maggie knew how to conduct the interview very well.” Josias put the magazine on the desk.“We have a lot of couples who are going to progress to marriage. Especially our daughter.” Melissa positions herself on the other side of the desk.Josias is interested in the subject. “Has our daughter expressed any desire to go through with the wedding?”“Not yet, but her brother’s wedding has motivated her.” Melissa smiles, “She’s not even attacking Sofia like she did before.”“I hope this fight e
Building My Life Chapter 2762 Routine Examinations to Not Die Early
At Rocha Mansion, Josias and Melissa discuss the subject brought up by Caroline cautiously.Melissa hugs Caroline. “Daughter, we’re happy with your concern. But the situation cannot be treated like that. First, wouldn’t we ironically be foreshadowing the death of our elders?”“It sounds crazy, Mom, but I need to be aware of the fact that no one is eternal.” Caroline answers, “Who could say that Reuben’s father would no longer be with us?”Josias takes a deep breath. Caroline has a point. Uélton would be forty-three or forty-four years old now. He died younger.“I understand, daughter.” He approaches her, “But if you want a wedding like this, everything will be rushed. Maybe your plans of having a beautiful and perfect wedding won’t come true.”“I’m willing to give up comfort and preferences, as long as my future husband doesn’t suffer because someone else in his family was unable to attend our wedding ceremony,” Caroline states with conviction.Melissa and Josias are amazed at their d
Building My Life Chapter 2763 Caroline Doesn’t Deserve to Sacrifice Herself
At Rocha Mansion, Josias and Melissa were talking to Simeon and Dora about Caroline’s concern. Everyone was now in Melissa’s office. The maid served cornstarch cookies with lemon tea.Simeon laughs heartily, “He, he, he... Is my granddaughter afraid that I will die before I see her married? That’s a granddaughter’s love.”Dora, however, nudges Simeon with a grimace. “Stop laughing, husband! That’s not funny.”Simeon kisses his wife’s cheek to appease her. “Honey, it’s funny, because these things can’t be predicted. Supposing I had died last year with my skin condition, how would Carol and Reuben be?”“They would be miserable, and knowing them, they might call off the wedding,” Josias responds worriedly.Dora seeks support, “Josias, put some sense into this man’s head. I don’t want to be a widow anytime soon.”Simeon, however, is more resigned. “Guys, thank you for your concern, but the fact is that I can’t guarantee that I’ll live forever! I don’t want my grandchildren to feel guilty
Building My Life Chapter 2764 Reuben’s Messy Message
At Rocha Constructions, Josias received Reuben’s mistaken message in his office.He reads, “Hello, Uncle Josias. Sorry for my delay. Carol and I are going to talk to Grandpa Frank and Grandma Isabel about getting married before one of them passes away. Carol had the same idea as me. Meanwhile, Cláudio Guzman slept with a committed woman again—WHAT?”Josias was under the impression that the last part wasn’t for Reuben to type. Caio entered the office at this moment.“Uncle Josias, Reuben wasn’t at his desk.”Josias chuckles. “He’s trying to convince their grandparents not to die before he and Carol get married.”Caio stood still for a few seconds, unable to follow Reuben’s logic.Josias laughs more. “I know, it sounds crazy, but Carol came to me with the same idea. They want to get married this year so that Simeon, Dora, Francisco, and Isabel can be present.”Caio nodded, understanding better. “Ah, okay. Well, here are the projects I approved.” He comments later, “At least, Grandpa Sim

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,
