Building My Life Chapter 3024 I Must Do the Right Thing
At Rocha Constructions, Alfred and Caio enter the presidential office and find J.J. reading the files that Alan had given him about Vasconcelos Fabrics.“Hey, buddy! How’s it going getting acquainted with one of your father’s companies?” Alfred smiles as he approaches him.“Great.” J.J. keeps his eyes on the file. “I’m learning a lot and coming up with some ideas.”“Will you have a managerial role there?” Caio asks excitedly. “All of Uncle Josias’s children do.”“Except Carol. She’ll continue studying Journalism.” J.J. looks up and faces them. “Maybe I should do the same.”“Study Journalism?” Alfred asks, astonished.“No, study Business Administration or something like that. Alan has a degree. David has experience with his mother’s store. And I?”Alfred reassures him, “You have experience in the countryside, at your grandfather’s farm. By the way, what’s going to happen with it?”“It’s mine, but it will be managed by the overseers there.” J.J. smiles, “And I also have some ideas for it
Building My Life Chapter 3025 Kelvin Finally Proposes
A few days had passed with Karen recovering in the hospital. Now she was waking up and had enough strength to hold and interact with the baby.“We still don’t know his name,” she commented in a fragile voice, smiling as she held her little angel.Kelvin, more excited, suggested, “What’s your father’s name?”“It was Antônio…”“Then we can name him Antony Britton Mountain. What do you think?”Karen nodded, smiling. “If my brother had a son, he would be Antônio Britton Jr.”“Oh, his name is also Antônio?” Kelvin became more interested in Karen’s family. After all, he was about to propose...“Yes, but we affectionately call him Tony.” Karen gently stroked the baby’s fine hair as he slept peacefully.“Wait, wasn’t Tony the name of Josias’s late father?” Kelvin felt awkward. The comparison would be inevitable...“Come on…” Karen frowned. “No one’s to blame for something like that. It was just a coincidence. The Britton family didn’t live here in the 80s. I came here looking for opportunitie
Building My Life Chapter 3026 David’s Sabotage?
At General Hospital, Karen shakes her head.Kelvin is surprised. "What’s wrong, dear?"“I must be dreaming. What did you say?” Karen’s eyes widen as the paleness in her face gradually fades with each passing minute of the conversation.“Yes, you’re wide awake.” Kelvin begins to laugh. “You’ll be Mrs. Mountain, Mrs. Kelvin Mountain. Isn’t that what you wanted?”“But… What happened? Why did you change your mind?” Karen asks, fearing this might be temporary, just a spur-of-the-moment decision.“I almost lost you. I didn’t want to raise a child without a mother. You would’ve been the second woman I lost if it weren’t for God’s mercy,” Kelvin replies tenderly. “That’s why I decided to stop being foolish and do the right thing.”Karen is touched, feeling her heart race. But this time, it doesn’t make her feel sick.Maggie enters the room cautiously. “Good morning! May I visit?”Kelvin straightens up, smiling more than ever. “Maggie, meet the next Mrs. Mountain in the family!”Maggie, still
Building My Life Chapter 3027 A Good Business Relationship
At Café Montanha, Kelvin updates his family about Karen and the baby."My son will be named Antony Britton Mountain. What do you think?" Kelvin asks with indescribable paternal pride."I'm very happy for you, nephew." Francisco gives a thumbs up. "We were talking, and we decided not to hassle you about your marriage.""That’s the right thing to do," Isabel echoes the sentiment."Thank you, everyone." Kelvin sighs with relief. "Finally, Melissa can rest easy, and we can lay to rest the rumors that I want to win her back."Isabel grins mischievously. "Well, Kelvin, it’s not like you’ve never thought about it. We know Melissa isn’t an easy woman to forget.""You were married to her for many years. It’s natural that you miss her," Francisco comforts him with an empathetic smile."Yes, but today, all I’m allowed to have from Melissa are memories. The past will be cherished in my mind and heart." Kelvin sighs melancholically."Do you want a coffee, nephew?" Francisco gestures toward the cof
Building My Life Chapter 3028 Crystal Blue Back to the Mountain Family
Josias notices Rodrigo entering the presidential office at Rocha Constructions. He gives a slight smile."Hello, Rod! How can I help you?""Um... It seems like I'm interrupting something." Rodrigo becomes nervous, "I can wait in the adjacent room—""Don’t waste your time. We’re short on assistants, as Reuben will be staying permanently in Rio de Janeiro." Josias stands up again."I wanted to let you know that my cousin Kelvin is going to marry Karen Britton," Rodrigo announces, noticing the perplexed looks from Josias and Caio.Caio shakes his head. "Didn’t I tell you all the Mountain family is bold and forward?""Come on, stop being so critical, buddy!" Felipe becomes annoyed, growing bored.Josias nods seriously. "I wouldn’t have wanted this to happen, but it seems that Karen’s near-death experience has moved Kelvin. If he can handle the consequences, I won’t object."Rodrigo smiles with relief. "Thank you, Josias. We wanted to inform you so you wouldn’t feel deceived. And as for yo
Building My Life Chapter 3029 New Tactic
The next day, J.J. wasted no time talking to Josias about his admission to Vasconcelos Fabrics. “Dad, I talked to Mr. Reynaldo Borges, a cool guy, and he welcomed me.” J.J. meets his father in the office of Rocha Mansion. Josias, dressed in a tie and formal attire, nods in approval. “Very good, my son. So, how does it feel to be back in the land of the living?” “Wonderful. And how are things at Rocha Constructions?” Alan was about to enter but left the door ajar upon hearing that question he dreaded the most. Josias responds nonchalantly, “We’re doing fine. Your older brother is taking care of everything. In fact, if you don’t see me around, it’s because I’ll be traveling to the Caribbean with Melissa.” “Oh, how nice! Good thing you guys have a private jet.” Alan can’t hold back anymore and steps inside. “J.J., take it easy. Just because you had a plane crash doesn’t mean all planes in the world are bound to fall. Don't curse our father on top of that.” J.J. is taken aback by
Building My Life Chapter 3030 Luís Goes to Battle
Pedro wasn’t in the mood to celebrate another guy's victories. “Sweetheart, are you paying attention to what you’re saying?” He asked, upset, refusing to embrace his beloved woman. Daniela felt misunderstood. “Um... What’s wrong, darling? I thought we talked about this. There’s no reason for you to feel jealous.” “You were way too cheerful about this news.” Pedro frowned. “And why would this be any of our concern? You’re no longer the accountant for that restaurant.” “I know, my love. But Felipe texted me and I couldn’t help but feel happy about it. Maybe he needed that encouragement to focus more on himself, his life, and forget us once and for all.” Daniela explained in a sweet tone. Pedro slowly begins to come around. “Are you sure that’s all it is?” “Yes! Come on, we can’t be enemies with him. I don’t want to hate anyone. He already knows I love you.” Daniela manages to cling to Pedro’s broad shoulders, sensually stroking his chest. The feminine contact stirs Pedro’s hormon
Building My Life Chapter 3031 Felipe... Give Up!
Daniela is shopping at Lafayette Supermarket. She walks past the pasta aisle and picks up some packages of lasagna. Felipe spots her from a distance and smiles upon seeing her. Without thinking much, he approaches her. “Lasagna for the tenants?” Daniela turns to him, taking a moment to reply in a formal tone, “Yes, my tenants deserve it. Although I’m also buying for myself.” “Isn’t Pete going to want to eat too? Oh, of course, you don’t want him to lose his six-pack, right?” Felipe tries to sound casual. Daniela remains unfazed. “Felipe, I’d like to personally congratulate you on reclaiming Crystal Blue. You needed that.” Felipe feels more encouraged, his eyes shining. “Really? You care that much about my victory, my friend?” “Yes, with that, you won’t be so focused on me and more on the restaurant,” Daniela replies, pouring cold water on the deluded man. Felipe’s smile fades. “Daniela, you still don’t understand. Crystal Blue belonged to my father, passed down to me. It was pr

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,
