Building My Life Chapter 2927 Rodrigo Accepts an Invitation
At Vaztrans, Olivia and Sofia are bothered by the latest news regarding Caroline."Dear, you need to teach Carol to mind her own business," Sofia complains, unable to hold back any longer."Calm down, Sofia. Carol is studying for the college entrance exam. She promised to become a journalist to work at Maggiezine." Alan tries to console his wife.However, Sofia becomes more exasperated, "NO! How dangerous it would be for Carol to be a journalist! She would gossip countless barbarities about me, you can count on that!""I don't think Bernie Marçal would dare to create a copy of that journalist who gave them a hard time... what's her name again?""Gabriela Alves, Sandra's legitimate mother," Alan replied, "No, Maggie won't allow Carol to use her magazine for personal vendettas.""Let's hope not. But why does she have a grudge against Miss Lombardi?" Olivia complained about gossip but now wants to know about one."Carol, for some reason, wants Pete to end his relationship with Daniela bec

Erasmo passes by Reuben, panting and with sweat stains under his arms, marking his cotton dress shirt."You're sweating," Reuben said, distracted."Young man, focus!" Erasmo banged on his desk, "Announce me to your boss.""You're going to talk to Uncle Josias all sweaty?" Reuben asked indignantly."ARGH!" Erasmo almost had a fit, "How did you manage to be the secretary and representative of the most powerful man in Lagoon City?""Not sweating like a pig," Reuben replied as he picked up the phone, "Uncle Josias, Erasmo Vasquez wants to speak to you... Oh, you were expecting him. Did you also expect him to come all sweaty under the armpits?"Erasmo restrained himself from punching Reuben."OK, bye now." Reuben ended the call, "You can come in. But don't get too close to Uncle Josias. You're sweaty."Unable to control himself, Erasmo told Reuben to go to hell and hurried into Josias's office."Your secretary urgently needs a refresher on how to greet visitors!" Erasmo slammed the door shu
Building My Life Chapter 2929 Hope for Change
The next day, Erasmo was fearfully discussing with his family what Josias had decided.Olivia and Sofia had wide eyes."Is he going to kill my grandson if we don't comply with his wishes?" Olivia exclaimed horrified.Sofia instinctively placed her hands on her belly. "That's impossible! Father, you must be exaggerating.""No, daughter!" Erasmo insisted, "Either we put Alan as a partner, dividing some shares, or the loan will be denied!"Sofia clenched her fists. "This means that what Caroline has been braying about for years has been engraved in her father's mind and heart. She succeeded. We are now labeled as untrustworthy, and this is the treatment we receive when we're genuinely in trouble!"Alan approached wearing formal attire, missing his tie and suit."Good morning, family! Is breakfast ready?""Yes, Alan. But we are discussing a very serious matter," Olivia replied.Alan noticed the somber tone in her voice and the palpable oppressive tension in the dining room."What happened?

When Josias entered the mansion, he found Melissa dressed up to go out."Dear, I didn't want to ask you yesterday, but I saw that you were a little upset." Josias approached and kissed her cheek."Oh, you're referring to the mission you entrusted me with?" Melissa huffed and rolled her eyes at the same time, "Unfortunately, I couldn't be as efficient.""What does Kelvin claim?""He denied it the whole time, making me believe exactly what you said," Melissa replied disappointed with her ex-husband, "How am I going to tell the twins?""Don't tell them. They don't need to have their childhood traumatized," Josias advises her."Actually, they're pre-teens." Melissa jokes."How time flies, huh? Little Theo is going to be just as big as his father, and Pete is kicking out problematic tenants by brute force."Melissa laughs. Yes, she's getting old, but to her, it's interesting to watch the next generation grow.They walk towards the hallway."Darling, about you ordering the boys from the Bent

Daniela claps as if she were part of an audience watching Pedro's energetic action."Wow... fantastic. What a manly and strong boyfriend I have!""Am I still your boyfriend?" Pedro jokes, wiping his hands as if trying to clean the dirt off the evicted tenant.Beto laughs and comes out from behind the counter. "I'll pack his things."Beto goes up the stairs to 202."Pete, while I applaud your courage, I wonder if this could backfire on you one day." Daniela expresses her concern."How so?""For example, I always had a suspicion that guy from 202 was up to something shady." Daniela drops her smile, "Could he not try to seek revenge on you?""With the electronic gate and the fact that we're protected by Josias, nothing bad will happen to us, my dear.""But wasn't there a time when Caio suffered retaliation?" Daniela remembers the incident."Indeed, some drug dealers tried to harm Caio. But they paid dearly for it. The one who tried to kill my brother was found with his mouth full of ants
Building My Life Chapter 2932 Disappointment and Headache
In the cafeteria of the Teodoro building, Teresa talks to Daniela. The two watch the tenants having their meals."Daniela, how did things go with Caroline? Have you made up yet?"Daniela purses her lips. "No. She hasn't been here since, neither her nor Felipe.""I'm really sorry. As a friend of Melissa, I think I should talk to her.""Don't bother." Daniela smiles to reassure her, "I appreciate your dedication, Tess, but Caroline is my business. And honestly, I'm not in the mood to talk about it.""Do you think the anger will pass?" Teresa raises her eyebrows, "Caroline has an issue with Sofia that hasn't completely resolved yet.""Sofia Vasquez, her sister-in-law? Alan seems to be a happy husband. Why can't Caroline be happy for her brother?""Midnight Mysteries." Teresa shakes her head."Maybe I can understand what's going on. Sofia is pregnant, right?" Daniela's eyes sparkle, thinking of some plan of action."Yes, go visit her. She needs it." Teresa encourages her.Daniela starts c

Days passed. The slap that Caroline received from Sofia healed, but the emotional wound continued to feel fresh in her mind and heart.She can't concentrate on her college entrance exam books and turns up the volume on her MP4 player. Shakira's song "Did It Again" seems to make her deaf.Dora entered her room. "My granddaughter, the music is echoing throughout the whole mansion!"Caroline rolls her eyes and lowers the sound. "Why do you like to exaggerate the truth?""Because it makes you realize faster." Dora approaches the desk, "Why are you like this?""Did you know that Sofia Vasquez slapped me?" Caroline vents with wrath in her eyes.Dora is frozen for a few seconds, realizing something else."Why did you call your sister-in-law by her maiden name?""GRANDMA!" Caroline stands abruptly, "You're not taking me seriously!""Don't be unfair, girl. You need to understand that Sofia is pregnant and her hormones are not in harmony. I'm sure she will come here today to apologize to you."
Building My Life Chapter 2934 A Tool of Jealousy
At Rocha Mansion, Melissa doesn't want the living room to turn into a battlefield."Are you here to complain about what's going on?""Yes, Melissa." Sofia asserts confidently and decisively, "I believe it's time to put an end to this talk once and for all, don't you think? Or do you also believe I came here to steal money from you?"Melissa swallows nervously. "I must admit that initially, I had my suspicions too.""Before or after Caroline opened her mouth?"The door opened and Caroline entered with Dora."No need to talk behind my back anymore. I'm here." Caroline announced pompously and arrogantly."Daughter, what's going on here?" Melissa frowned as she stood up.Caroline glanced sideways at Sofia, barely acknowledging her sister-in-law's presence. She addressed her mother."Sofia told you she slapped me in public at Café Montanha?""WHAT?" Melissa exploded, glaring fiercely at Sofia, "The pregnant woman has the strength to hit MY DAUGHTER?""Don't use my pregnancy as an excuse to

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

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,
Chapter 3228 Sarah Shouldn’t Have Let Her In
At the General Hospital, Diane was causing a scene in the hallway while Felipe was being treated in one of the rooms. “What is happening? Someone please give me answers!!” Matthew approached the desperate woman. “Mrs. Mountain, we ask for your calm. Your son is not in life-threatening condition.” “He should never have been in this situation to begin with!” Diane shouted. Eugenio approached. “Mrs. Mountain, we’re very sorry. I tried to call Suzy, but she is at an appointment with Cardozo Perfumes.” “Why is she at my brother-in-law’s company? More investments?” Diane was taken aback. “Perhaps,” Eugenio narrowed his eyes. “She didn’t tell me exactly what she intended to do.” “Oh, this situation is killing me. Doctor, how is he?” “He is sleeping under the effect of sedatives. We are waiting for a room to become available to conduct some tests to understand why he isn’t waking up,” Matthew informed her. “Well, if my boy isn’t going to wake up for now, I need to reach my husband.
Chapter 3227 Business First, Boyfriend Later
At the Rocha Hotel, Luís couldn’t stand being called “Spanish Stallion” for the umpteenth time and gave Felipe the biggest beating he had ever received in his life. However, Eugenio was not in favor of violence and quickly called using his desk phone. “Security, there’s a fight happening in my office!” Eugenio’s euphoric voice jolted Luís out of his trance. When he came to, Felipe was unconscious, with a bleeding nose and cuts on his face. “LUÍS, look what you’ve done!” Eugenio panicked. “How am I going to defend you from this?” “I couldn’t control myself, Eugenio! You know how much I hate that nickname!” Luís shouted passionately. “It doesn’t matter! If you can’t keep your self-control, you’re going to get into serious trouble like right now!” Eugenio pushed Luís away from Felipe as he spoke. He knelt down and checked Felipe’s vital signs by holding his wrist. “At least he’s STILL alive,” Eugenio said sarcastically. The security team arrived in record time. “Here we are, ma
Chapter 3226 The Nickname as a Trigger
At Crystal Blue, the restaurant was still closed, but Suzy was there at the bar, having a drink in celebration. Diane was the one who prepared two shots, both toasting. “A toast to success and personal fulfillment, my future daughter-in-law!” They both drank. Suzy took a deep breath. “What a relief! It’s so good to be victorious!” “It really is a wonderful feeling.” Diane nodded. “Now, do you think the annoying people will finally leave you alone?” “No, of course not! It seems the war is going to intensify even more.” Suzy replied excitedly. “And you are confident that you can fight, win?” “Of course! I have the truth on my side.” Suzy took another sip. “It all started with Sofia discussing salary increases in front of the employees.” “I feel like she did that on purpose, huh?” Diane raised her eyebrows suspiciously. “Yes, I see it that way, too, after thinking it through. What a coincidence that Sofia heated up the discussion just as I showed up warning against making too ma
