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
Building My Life Chapter 3032 He Is a Vasquez
At Rocha Constructions, Alan talks with Reynaldo. Alfred steps out. “I’ll leave the gentlemen alone. Is your father here?” “Yes, in his office.” Alan points to the adjacent door. Alfred walks past it. “Well then, Mr. Borges.” Alan stands up, extends his hand, “I want to know how my half-brother Josias Junior was received at the company.” Reynaldo shakes Alan’s hand. “Well, the reception was great. Josias Junior, overall, was well accepted by the staff at Vasconcelos Fabrics.” “And what will his work be like there? Will he have an office just for himself and everything?” Alan asks, trying to maintain a kind tone. But Reynaldo feels a chill in his neck, sensing he is being interrogated. “That is the intention, Mr. Rocha. Why, is there a problem?” “No, nothing much. But Mr. Borges, I want to inform you that my half-brother doesn’t have much experience in the matter. When any problem arises, anything you don’t agree with, please don’t hesitate to call me.” “And what about your fa

At Vaztrans, William questioned Sofia about the company’s finances, which are now in order since her parents stopped interfering.“Uh, I think the explanation is simple. With my father no longer here, we don’t have that urge to prove we’re always the best public transportation company in the city.” Sofia sat face to face with him. “I remember my father would always freak out when people mocked the old bus models we had.”“Yeah, and he would waste money buying expensive buses that we couldn’t afford to maintain.” William accepted this explanation for now. “So, Sofia, you wouldn’t be offended if I said your father was just playing at being a manager?”Sofia made a face. “My father managed Vaztrans since its inception. I’m here to continue his legacy.”“I know you’ll do a good job.” William leaned back in his chair. “I just want us to keep things this way now that we’re in control.”Sofia crossed her arms. “Great. I hope that doesn’t mean any insinuation on your part – or from that littl
Chapter 3209 Time to Look for Other Girls
Vaztrans, morning. Brand new buses come in and out of the garage, with drivers and fare collectors smiling in their new uniforms. In William’s office (which used to belong to Olivia), he scratched his forehead while researching and checking the financial spreadsheets. Sofia, greeted like a diva by the staff, entered the office. “Good morning to you too! Have a good day at work!” She approached the desk. “Good morning, Will! What’s with that long face?” “I’m not making a long face. I’m making a face of someone who doesn’t understand this accounting,” William replied, still looking at the monitor. “What’s the problem? Are we broke again?” Sofia’s eyes widened. “No.” William finally looked at her, with a mischievous smile. “We have so much slack that we could pay off one of the installments of the loan we took from Josias if we wanted to.” Sofia continued with wide eyes. “Oh, that’s incredible, right?” William kept smiling. “Sofia, you’re not getting my astonishment. The point is
Chapter 3208 A Night in the Cell to Reflect
At Rocha Constructions, Josias and Alan faced a dilemma: should they start a war against the Borges brothers? Thierry noticed their initial hesitation. “If it’s too much for you two, forget it. J.J. and I will manage on our own. Maybe Daryl can help us.” The mention of Daryl made Josias react, “Wait a minute, Thierry. We never said we wouldn’t help you. On the contrary, I feel the same way: that truck was deliberately sent against the supermarket to cause that accident.” “Yeah, a way to force J.J. to choose between focusing on the farm or on Vasconcelos. No one but the Borges brothers was interested in that.” Thierry smiled slightly. “The problem is we have no proof.” Josias put his hands in his pockets. “The truck was on the street, there are no surveillance cameras nearby.” Alan asked, “But J.J. decided to stay with Vasconcelos, right?” “Exactly. That was our way of getting back at them.” Josias nodded. “So, our only form of investigation will be to observe how Reynaldo Borges
Chapter 3207 The Law Must Be Obeyed
Just out of spite, David was taken to the Happiness Slum police station, where Dylan was now interrogating him and pressing him against the wall. David was shaking while handcuffed, thinking he might have a chance to escape. “What is going on here? LET ME GO! This station is not equipped to handle my problems!” Dylan sat at the desk, keeping one of his subordinates nearby, standing by the door. “Oh really? It just so happens that it’s the opposite: Commissioner Tavares said he doesn’t want to see your face at the headquarters!” David was horrified by the remark. “What does that mean? We can’t allow such abuse! Call my dad immediately!” Dylan, grinning with delight, leaned back in his chair. “Mr. Souza, it was your father who ordered us to remove you from the Rocha Constructions building.” “That’s IMPOSSIBLE! My dad never ordered Alan’s arrest!” “Isn’t it because Alan Campos Rocha has never given the police any reason to detain him?” Dylan asked ironically. “And on what charges
Chapter 3206 Is Daniela Pregnant?
At the management office of Lafayette Supermarket, Thierry was signing a fat check for a member of the Cintra family. The man, who was the victim’s brother, was staring at everyone with disdain and arrogance. “You have to understand that we can no longer shop at this supermarket, right?” he kept saying. “My poor brother used to come here because the wine prices were cheaper, but now... we’re going to have to resort to the little store closer to home, even if it costs more!” Nadia was outraged. “Mr. Cintra, don’t be arrogant!” Mr. Cintra raised his chin at Nadia. “I can sue you for this too, you know?” “No, you can’t,” Thierry emphasized, tearing the check from the invoice and hastily extending it to him. “Take it and get out of our sight!” “You are in the wrong and still want to play the victim!” Mr. Cintra simply felt entitled to cluck. “Thank goodness my brother didn’t die! Otherwise, we would tear this crappy supermarket down! It was much better when the Ramos family ran this
Chapter 3205 At the Height of Despair
The next day, Daniela was talking to Dr. Matthew Hogan at General Hospital. “Alright, Daniela,” he said with a smile. “I hope we don't find anything serious in your tests.” “Could I... be pregnant?” Daniela asked in a whisper. Talking to Matthew inevitably reminded her of Silvana Hogan, his mother and a famous obstetrician. “My mother is now retired and enjoying the Bahamas,” Matthew said kindly. “If your test results indicate you’re expecting, we’ll refer you to the appropriate department.” “Thank you so much, Dr. Hogan!” Daniela extended her hand, and Matthew shook it. A few moments later, Daniela was walking through the corridors, thinking about the possibility of being pregnant. She even placed her right hand on her belly, already imagining herself carrying the heir of the Reis family. She smiled mischievously as she recalled the countless nights of passionate love where Pedro ravaged her mercilessly, only stopping when the alarm rang the next morning. How could she not
Chapter 3204 Someone is Not Feeling Well
Melissa worried about her parents' objection regarding the twins getting involved with their paternal family. "Mom, Dad, I understand your concern." Melissa broke the silence. "But in a way, they're right. I don't have the right to completely cut them off from Kelvin. Besides, they have another little brother." Dora looked at her wristwatch. "At this hour, Mary must be in the penthouse, keeping an eye on Anthony." "Oh, did they say they were going to do that?" Melissa smiled slightly. "Yes, someone texted them asking for it. Probably Kelvin," Simeon replied seriously. Dora explained, "Daughter, let's hope Daryl doesn't take advantage of the closeness to poison our grandchildren's minds." Melissa was alarmed. "What are you saying, Mom? I won't allow that!" "No, I know you won't allow it." Dora frowned. "That's why I hope you visit Kelvin and set some boundaries." "If I bring this up, I'll unintentionally be starting a stupid war," Melissa retorted. "They know their boundaries.
Chapter 3203 Long-Term Consequences
At Rocha Constructions, Sofia is eager to prove that she was right all along about Suzy. She leaned back against Alan again, wanting information. "Dear, before we were interrupted, you were saying something about me being right to be suspicious of Suzy Cogo. I knew that smartass was planning something!" Alan scratched the back of his neck. "I feel like she was the one Everaldo mentioned in the prophecy." Sofia's eyes lit up. "That's true! Suzy is the only one investing out there! Do you think she will want a slice of Rocha Constructions?" "I sincerely hope my dad doesn't agree to sell any shares. I won't do that. Better warn Caio." Alan became serious. "Well, I'll have to put up with her at Vaztrans." Sofia sighed, feeling discouraged. Alan turned to his wife with curiosity. "Speaking of which, dear, we haven't heard any news about Vaztrans being in trouble this year. Did you finally manage to control the spending?" Sofia looked confused. "Uh, I don't know what you're talking a

Sofia reacted, obviously pleased, when none other than her husband stated that she was right.Unable to resist any longer, she sat on Alan's lap and delivered THAT delicious, passionate kiss.When the kiss ended, Alan was perplexed, eyes wide."What was that for?" He asked, lost."You silly!" Sofia began to laugh. "This is your reward for believing in me. And tonight, you'll have another reward that's under my panties—"The last phrase was clearly heard by Caio, who was opening the door at that moment.Sofia quickly bounced off Alan's lap, trying to disguise the intimacy. Caio blushed slightly, smiling awkwardly.Alan smiled nervously. "Wow, everyone decided to start early in 2012! Good morning, cousin."Caio avoided looking at Sofia. "Good morning, cousin. Do we have any updates regarding our annual meeting?""My dad appointed me president – again." Alan's cat-like grin indicated that he wasn't complaining. "And we'll have all the important people, just like last year."Caio's face g
