2021-07-01 19:23:50Wallace 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. Josias doesn't have time to get emotional; his mind is working, processin

At Melissa's house, all the people are together with Dora; they are still stunned by what happened a little while ago.Dora is lulling Caio to make him sleep. "So, guys, what went wrong?""Josias," William remains shocked, "why didn't you let me tell Wallace the truth?""Because of Pamela's proposal." Josias explains, with the serious and icy countenance of every CEO, "She guaranteed that she would disappear from the map, or at least she would leave Happiness Slum and she would never meet with us again; so that Wallace doesn't discover that I am not the Caio's father.""What a soulless wretch!" Melissa screams, "Did she give up her son's custody just to keep up the lie? There is the proof that she didn't deserve to be a mother!""She wants to get married and be happy with Wallace, although I don't think she loves him exclusively," Josias commented."Not really, but that's where I worry." William states, "If later on Wallace finds Pamela chea

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

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

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

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

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,”

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,
