Building My Life Chapter 2953 Another Paralytic in the Family?
Caroline is now at Rocha Mansion, in the comfort of her room, studying for the college entrance exam. She has already written the article about the birth of her nephew and handed it to Maggie.Smiling, she looks forward to the moment when she will be dealing with more serious and important subjects, such as Politics and World Economy.Her phone interrupts her daydreams and she answers when she sees that it's her father."Hi, Dad! What's up?""Daughter, I ask you not to panic," Josias speaks directly.It's the kind of phrase that has the opposite effect. Caroline started to feel shivers down her spine and her heart raced."Dad, when you say that, something horrible must have happened. My nephew...?""Nothing happened to your nephew, but to your fiancé."Dora enters at this moment. "Carol...""WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO REUBEN?" Caroline yells in despair.Dora approaches and puts her hands on Caroline's shoulders.Josias is in the hospital corridor, sighing deeply. "Erasmo showed up at t

Josias holds Caroline, who trembles with fear."Daughter, remember what I told you?" He gazes at her, advising her affectionately."Father, don't come to me with tales." Caroline shakes her head, "Reuben is dying and I want justice! I want, I DEMAND, that you dig a hole in the beach sand and bury Erasmo alive! He needs to die! An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!"Simeon and Dora feel compassion and distress at seeing their granddaughter so desperate and bloodthirsty."Where is Melissa?" Josias turns to them."Melissa is with Izzy at LCN, in a meeting with the soap opera directors," Simeon explained."OK. I need you to take care of her." Josias hands his daughter to her maternal grandparents.Dr. Hogan repeats the information, "We still don't know the results of the tests, but your fiancé won't die, Miss Rocha. But he probably won't be walking well on the day of the wedding."Caroline starts trembling in stress again. "No, doctor, this can't happen! Our wedding is scheduled, we've

In the General Hospital lounge, Dr. Hogan reappeared with a calmer expression."Everyone, Reuben is being taken to surgery. I hope everything will be alright. Unfortunately, his right leg was affected, and we detected a fracture in the exams."Melissa was present. Josias pointed her out to the doctor."Dr. Hogan, this is my wife, Melissa. Your mother also treated her.""He's Dra. Silvana's son?" Melissa looked closely at the doctor and noticed the resemblance."Yes. And he's treating our friend Reuben." Josias nodded.Flávia approached Josias. "Josias, although I think Caroline exaggerated out of desperation, I agree with her that Erasmo needs to take responsibility."William echoed the complaint. "Exactly. He knocked the boy down and then shut the door with him still in the doorway. What kind of violence is that? All because his loan was denied?"Josias looked at the ground, pondering the implications of the events."Reuben didn't help by calling him 'senile old man.' But I agree, Er
Building My Life Chapter 2956 A Logical Question
Hours passed. Reuben woke up from surgery and found himself lying in his bed in the Intensive Care Unit.Flavia and William were the first to see him."Mom, what happened?""Take it easy, son." Flavia smiled through tears, "You only broke a leg. You need to rest to recover.""Recover?" Reuben has the same anxiety as Caroline, "Mom, I can't relax. The wedding is coming! Carol has already bought her wedding dress!"William approached and put his hand on his shoulder. "Reuben, calm down. I know this is annoying, but this unexpected event happened, and you need to take care of yourself. You don't want to walk down the aisle in a wheelchair or crutches, do you?""No, that would take all the grace and glamour out of the occasion," Reuben joked with a grimace.He wants to be healthy to perform well on the honeymoon!Flavia was relieved to see her eager son understanding. "Okay. Carol is already comforted thanks to Pete. And since the wedding will be at your future father-in-law's ceremony, t

Caroline enters Rocha Mansion with a triumphant smile.Hector greets her at the entrance. "Good afternoon, Miss Rocha. How was the entrance exam?""I'm confident that I'll pass, Hector. Thank you very much for your concern." Caroline winks at the butler.Hector smiles gently. "It's not a matter of concern. I know that you will ace it.""Thank you, Hector. I really need good vibes."Melissa appears from the living room. "I hear voices... Oh, it's you, daughter. Was the entrance exam very difficult?""Many questions, Mother. The essay was tough." Caroline sighs and pretends to be tired after running a triathlon.Melissa hugs her daughter. "Soon, we'll have our daughter coming out on top in the overall results.""I'll settle for first place in Journalism." Caroline smiles happily, "I don't want people to think that Aunt Maggie is putting me in Maggiezine out of favoritism or nepotism."Melissa releases the hug and shakes her index finger. "Don't think that way. You are a smart young lady

Caroline visits Reuben. Pedro is already gone."Hi, my love! I ran into Pete in the hallway. He has been a great friend, hasn't he?"Caroline kisses Reuben. Reuben would have possessively held Caroline's head if it weren't for his condition."Yes, and I hope he continues to be a friend." Reuben hints.Caroline sits in the visitor's seat. "What do you mean?""Why do I have this strange feeling that Pete will be my rival?" Reuben frowns.Caroline, however, dismisses the hypothesis with a kind smile. "It's just your impression. You can't listen to Daniela's gossip.""Is Daniela his girlfriend, right?" Reuben frowns, "Why does she say these things about her boyfriend?""Because she's a bitch." Caroline responds as if it were something simple, "Anyway, can I talk about the entrance exam I took?"Reuben pushes his insecurities to the back of his mind and smiles lovingly. "You don't need to. You aced the whole exam and got a perfect score on the essay.""How do you know that?" Caroline laugh

At the Vasquez Mansion, the family finishes breakfast. Sofia is at home with A.J. in her arms, breastfeeding him."He still wants more, guys. I'll have to stay here.""I'll keep you company, dear." Alan offers lovingly."No, my love, you need to show up at Rocha Constructions." Sofia declines with a beautiful smile."My father said I can take as many days off as necessary." Alan caresses the head of his eldest son.Alan's phone rings and he answers, curious about who is calling."Hello, Uncle João Paulo? Yes, go ahead... Yes... OK, see you there. Tell the people at the entrance not to stop me. Bye."When Alan ends the call, Erasmo, Olivia, and Sofia are staring at him with curiosity."Uncle João Paulo wants to talk to me," Alan only says this."I wonder if he wants to do another interview," Olivia asks excitedly, thinking about publicity."He probably does. But we're already going to be in Maggiezine thanks to my sister."Sofia makes a face, continuing to breastfeed.Olivia gets up, "

Alan enters LCN and is welcomed by João Paulo in his office."Hey, don't make that suspicious face. Everything is going to be okay." João Paulo smiles like a spider, leading Alan to the visitor's seat."I'm still curious and spent the whole trip in my car trying to guess what you could want with me," Alan admits uncomfortably."Wow, am I that dangerous?" João Paulo forces a laugh that doesn't convince Alan.Alan looks at his uncle suspiciously. "I think I know what you really want. No, the loan wasn't authorized. In fact, it was denied. My father WANTED to lend."Seeing that they had decided to be frank and direct, João Paulo widened his mischievous smile even more and proceeded to take notes in his notepad. "Hmm... I see, and what did your father-in-law not agree to?""Is that really your business, uncle?" Alan furrows his brow."The public needs to know if Vaztrans will or will not be a subsidiary of Rocha Empire." João Paulo smiles maliciously."Rocha CONSTRUCTIONS, as the name sug

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.

Melissa and Mary visit the Mountain Café.“A guava juice for me, Mr. Mountain!” Mary requested, smiling sweetly.“Of course, my princess!” Rodrigo replied, thinking Mary was very adorable. “Neil will make a delicious cup for you.”“Thank you. But the princess is Carol,” Mary responded, striking a serious pose.Melissa and Rodrigo laughed heartily. Mary is something else...“Rod, how has it been managing the café in your father’s absence?” Melissa asked seriously.Rodrigo served a baked chicken pastry with ketchup to Mary. “I'm getting by, Melissa. Josias was here earlier, more concerned about my loss than his own, as always. Isn’t he supposed to be resting?”Melissa nodded. “My husband is like that: he only relaxes when all of us are relaxed.”“An impossible mission because of certain people.”Neilton approached with the glass. “Who ordered a guava juice?”“I DID!” Mary grabbed the glass and went to a table.Melissa leaned forward, “Neil, Rod, how are Daryl and Diane? Behaving?”“Cont

Chapter 3146 We Need to Talk - Dad
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.

Chapter 3145 João Paulo Is a Good Father
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

At the Rocha Mansion, Josias receives a visit from Benjamin. “How have you been, Ben? Any news about your parents?” The two embrace. “Actually, that’s what I want to talk about.” Benjamin scratches the back of his neck. 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

Chapter 3142 Let’s Launch Another Biography
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 Rocha and his family returned to Lagoon City. Those who were waiting for them stayed in the mansion and greeted them cheerfully in the foyer. “WELCOME BACK!” Melissa, crying, embraced her parents, William, and the twins fervently. 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. We’ll go shopping together another time, okay?” “Do you have pictures?” Ignacio asked anxiously. “Yes, son, we took some pictures.” Melissa sat on the couch, pulling out a package from her bag. Josias sat in the armchair, taking a deep breath. William approached him.

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
