2021-07-01 19:22:19The next day, Vera is talking to Teodoro and Beto at her father's apartment. They decided not to talk in the kitchen so as not to be caught by Pamela or Jeremiah.
"After he showered, Pamela got up immediately and took the clean clothes for Wallace to put on in the bathroom, to prevent Wallace from leaving the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around his waist." Vera laughs, "Too bad, she didn't let me see the 'husband's' ripped body..."
Beto no longer finds it so funny. "Watch out, sis, don't get contaminated by the promiscuous one."
"Hey, we're talking about my future husband." Vera replies in a mocking tone, "I will see a lot more on the honeymoon."
Beto purses his lips and Teodoro is embarrassed, "Calm down, dear daughter, one step at a time. No rush, so as not to spoil the plan."
"I need to continue to come right at this time when he comes home from work." Vera goes on to say, "Coming here with her alone is not enough."

"Josias, my love, can we talk in the kitchen?" Melissa asks. Her serious, dark face is making Josias worried."God, what was that calling about?" Josias asks and decides to follow Melissa into the kitchen. The phone rings again and Romualdo answers it."Silva Construction Company, Romualdo Silva, how can I help you?" He frowns, "Ah, young Mr. Barbosa... what was it this time?"While Adrian tells the whole story of yesterday in his version, omitting everything wrong he did, Josias and Melissa are already talking in the kitchen."Josias, I want to be straightforward. Since we're getting married, we can't have any secrets between us. A while ago, Adrian got in touch over the phone, we started talking and he said he's dating Carmen. She spoke a lot of lies about us. I was furious and started to disprove it, so Adrian said we could meet up to talk in person."Josias puts his hand on her shoulder, patient and understanding. "And you went."Melissa

Wallace is ready to leave for work when Pamela catches his eye. She is breastfeeding Caio. "Honey, how about we register our son as soon as possible?"Wallace stops walking and turns to her with a smile. "Yes, dear, we need to do this. My job... anyway, I'm going to talk to the supervisor and ask for tomorrow's day off so we can go out and go to the registry office."Pamela smiles with relief. She thinks that with Wallace registering Caio as his son, Josias would have no chance of taking her son. "And what's the full name?""We will call him Caio Chaves Freire, as it should be." Wallace shrugs, "Never that it will be Caio Rocha, because the other refuses to admit that he is a father, right?""Okay, let's get him out of the boy's life." Pamela snarls, "Caio will never know that he had a father who rejected him, the poor guy can grow up traumatized by that.""Well then, honey, I'm going to work. See you later." Wallace exchanges a light kiss on Pamel

Pamela is more and more surprised by what Cristina said. Was that her mother, that lady who just wanted to sit on the couch and religiously follow the soap operas?Cristina had a different attitude: that meekness and passivity of yore had disappeared and now we see a strong and determined Cristina to help her daughter.Pamela pulls out two chairs for the two of them to sit on; the daughter with more urgency to sits down. "Mom, what are you saying?""You are the mother of this baby, and it is not fair to take my grandson out of your arms just because people don't like you." Cristina reasoned with her.Pamela decides to pretend that she didn't know this, so as not to reveal that she is in cahoots with Jeremiah. "But, mother... this is horrible! Will I ever be at peace? Wallace is already willing to take over my son and tomorrow we are going to the registry office. Why do these people want to complicate things?""It's because they believe you will be

At night, Josias is talking to the Campos family. He is sitting in Simeon's armchair while the others are on the sofa."And then, dear," Melissa asks, "What did Igor tell you?""He said the ideal option would be for William to be eighteen and have a stable life." Josias answers.William reacts discouraged. "By then, Wallace has already registered my son as his."Josias smiles and reassures him. "Don't worry, Will. Igor made sure this is not irreversible. The biological father always has more rights than his stepfather. It will be much better for you to fight for your son when you can provide for him. And preferably, married.""This is still going to take time," William responds with relief. The rest laugh."So it would be the case that we try." Simeon says, "Raymond agrees. Cristina is out of the cards.""Yes, Igor prefers that you plead for custody of the baby in court until William reaches the age of majority," Josias explains.
Building My Life Chapter 296 The Truth Comes Out
The discussion continues, now with William actively participating. He is angry, he even trembles with rage, and he can't take Pamela anymore. Pamela would rather die than admit that William is Caio's father, so she smiles weakly and begins to disguise: "Don't be a clown, William! I know you are dying to own my body, but we never—" "Enough of lies, you crazy!" William screams, frightening the others, "Everyone here already knows that the father is me! Caio, is that my son's name? So that's it, Caio is our son!" Pamela's mouth opens, and then she reacts: "And how are you going to prove that you are the father?" "In the same way that you will have to prove that the father is Josias," William replies. Pamela gulps. "Well, we never—" "Of course, Pamela, don't you remember?" William takes a deep breath to continue, "That night when we had a soccer game on the field here, and I caught you talking to Josias, thinking that the two of you were c

"Getting married, Pamela?" Wallace is gaping when he hears Pamela ask if he wants to marry her. "Have you become a lesbian? It's the man who asks the woman to marry him."Pamela takes offense at the question and crosses her arms. "So you're gay, because we have been dating for centuries, lived together, raised a child, but you never asked me to marry you! Do you want to stay like this all your life?"Wallace feels pummeled by the Reason. Pamela is right; they are already practically a family, without the required documentation!"Let's take advantage of that you have time off tomorrow to get married, so it will be easier for us to register Caio with your last name!" Pamela tries to coax him with some exasperation.It is Pamela's anxiety that makes Wallace curious. "Is something going on, Pamela? I agree that we need to get married, but that idea came a bit suddenly, don't you think?""There is nothing sudden!" Pamela snorts, pushes a chair, and sits

Pamela feels trapped as if she were an animal about to go to the slaughterhouse, but who insisted on hiding in vain from her destiny. She starts to sweat and shiver. The hands that hold the baby stroller also shake and that bothers Caio. He groans with impatience."Stop bothering the baby!" Melissa warns her."Pam, is that true?" Wallace asks her, frowning and very irritated, "You said you went yesterday to your mother's house, that you two made up.""Exactly, that's why I can't have talked to Josias," Pamela responds smartly.However, Josias was not going to allow the lie to continue; today was the day of truth: "I was visiting my girlfriend's family and Pamela came by surprise, giving insults and we ended up arguing. Some truths came out."Pamela's eyes widen and she looks at Josias as if she says: 'please don't tell!'"So that's why you went all weird back to the apartment." Wallace continues, "I knew, I felt that you were very anxious an

Josias narrows his eyes, trying to understand Pamela's last words. "What did you say? What did I get?""You won. Didn't want to be with Caio, take him on as a son? There, problem solved. You can have him."Josias widens his eyes in such a way that he is comical. "Are you completely out of your mind? Are you giving me Caio's custody just so I don't have to tell the truth to Wallace, so he can marry you?""Yeah!" Pamela speaks with emotion, tears are almost shedding, "Don't you understand, Josias? Marrying and being happy with Wally is the only thing I have left. Wally is the only man who respects me, who treats me with affection and dignity. You may even be right when you said that I don't feel love for him, but I still don't want to walk away from him! And that's what will happen if you or William opens the mouth."Pamela can't take it anymore and lets the tears spill down her face.

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.

But the princess is Carol,” Mary responded, striking a serious pose.Melissa and Rodrigo laughed heartily.

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.

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

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

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 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.

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
