Building My Life Chapter 3083 Counting on Daryl’s Support
Caio is in his office, now holding with both hands a large colorful banner of ‘Residential Brigitte,’ showing an aerial view of the finished project. An architect assistant is next to him. “Does reality match the advertisement?” he asked. “Definitely, haven’t you seen the construction site?” Caio smiles satisfied. William enters the office. “Ahem... Son, can we talk?” “Yes, Dad. Fábio, can you give us a moment?” Caio rolls up the banner. The assistant leaves for his desk. Caio gestures towards his cabinet, where William follows him. After closing the door, Caio starts, “So, Dad?” “I think I know how we can get started, son.” William suggests seriously. “It sounds crazy, but have you heard that Daryl Mountain is back in town?” Caio points to a copy of Maggiezine on his desk. On the cover, everything about Francisco. “There’s a page dedicated to his return. Maggie has been quite generous with her older brother,” Caio replied, not getting involved. “I know. But he is now the pa

By the pool at the Rocha Mansion, Dora chats with Simeon while watching him swim. “Do you know who was interested in buying Izzy’s house, my love?” Simeon stops swimming and positions himself at the edge. He adjusts the loose Speedos he’s wearing. “Who?” Dora noticed her husband’s ‘crack’ but decided not to make a joke. “Leonardo Borges, a lawyer from Damascene Lawyers.” “Are you serious?” Simeon raises his eyebrows. “Does he have a family?” “He has a younger brother. Maybe one of them will start a family in the future.” Dora sighs, “A nice-looking guy with a personality like Attorney Borges won’t stay single for long.” “Izzy doesn’t want to sell the house to some single guy who lives in wild parties and promiscuity. That house has sentimental value; it means a lot to her that the buyer is someone responsible and family-oriented,” Simeon comments, returning to his laps. Dora looks at the beach horizon. “Yes, I can understand her perfectly.” William appears from behind and kiss

The Teodoro Building was buzzing with excitement at the return of Pedro and Daniela from their honeymoon.Beto, Teresa, Maycon, Rosemary, and Thierry were in the lobby waiting for them.“We’re back!” Daniela exclaimed as she passed through the gate.“YAY!” Everyone cheered and clapped. Teresa hugged Daniela.Pedro entered, loaded with bags. Beto and Thierry rushed to help him, laughing at the scene at the same time.“Hey, Pete! Looks like you got stuck with the pack mule job, huh?”“I bet you carried a lot of bags too!” Pedro retorted with chuckles, “That’s what happens when we go through Paris.”“Did you happen to run into Josias and Melissa while you were there?” Teresa asked curiously.“Yes, and his parents too.” Daniela’s smile faded a bit. “His dad, Mr. Queiroz, is getting really old.”Pedro solemnly added, “Yeah, everyone, we heard what happened around here. Poor Mr. Mountain...”Beto nodded. “I didn’t have the courage to go to the funeral. Strong emotions don’t do well for me,

Daniela and Pedro entered the apartment that would now be reserved for the two of them.“Oh! Home sweet home!” Pedro exclaimed, extremely excited.“And the best part, no dad to bother us,” Daniela replied humorously.“Darling, I found it quite offensive that your dad vanished like this,” Pedro’s smile faded as he looked at his wife with concern.“How so?” Daniela placed one of the bags on the sofa. “He asked for it, right?”“I bet he’s out there complaining in bars, lamenting to his drunken friends about how he has an ungrateful and disloyal daughter.”“You’re exactly right: drunken friends. That doesn’t count,” Daniela shrugged off the idea.“Okay, so it’s good that our children get used to their paternal grandparents.” Pedro sat down on the sofa.Daniela sat beside him. “And your mother?”“The grandmother of our future children will be Tess,” Pedro replied somewhat abruptly.“But our future children will see you call her ‘Tess’ and not ‘Mom’.” Daniela stroked Pedro’s hair.“When the

At the Rocha Hotel, Luís enters Eugenio’s office to discuss a work-related issue. His eagle-eyed vision goes straight to an acrylic candy jar containing chocolate truffles wrapped in gold foil. “Gene, there you are. I took care of the water leak happening in suite 1150... Can I have one of those truffles?” Eugenio replied, still focused on his computer, “Help yourself! And it’s great that we fixed that annoying leak. Fancy guests can’t have that kind of problem, or they’ll blow the whistle, scaring off the next ones.” Luís can’t resist his curiosity. “Since when do we have truffles...” He unwraps one and chews, “HMM! Since when do we have such delicious truffles available, my friend?” “Since the day João Paulo Queiroz kept his word and paid my niece for calling her a ‘bimbo.’” Eugenio continues to fixate on the computer. Luís, excited, pulls up a chair and sits down. “Seriously? She managed?” “You’re acting like it’s something impossible for my niece.” With that, Eugenio looks a

At Damascene Lawyers, Leonardo entered Brigitte’s office. “Brigitte, can I have a word with you?” “Make it two.” Brigitte was typing something on her computer. Leonardo kept the door open, approaching her. “Did I do well by showing up at your house earlier?” Brigitte stopped typing, bewildered. She stared at him. “What’s this about?” “I had a strange feeling that the hubby didn’t like it.” Brigitte smirked. “HE didn’t like? I told him he should have worn a shirt instead of showing off that beefy, hairy physique to you.” Leonardo swallowed hard. “Good thing it wasn’t you showing up in a sheer nightgown.” Brigitte laughed heartily, “He, he, he... Leonardo, since you and your brother are our neighbors, feel free to come by anytime.” “But not so early. At night, after ‘Love Spins the World.’” Leonardo winked and left. Brigitte laughed some more until Leonardo closed the door. Then, she turned back to her desk and glimpsed a photo of herself with Caio on their wedding day, sm

At Crystal Blue, a fight is almost breaking out between Pedro and Felipe over Daniela. Being grabbed by the collar by the former, Felipe grins defiantly. “Come on, tough guy, hit me! Go ahead and do some damage to my restaurant! Let’s celebrate twenty years of ownership of Crystal Blue with a fight!” Pedro calms down and releases Felipe, controlling his anger. “I’m not going to bother. Daniela never paid you any attention.” “Not like you paid attention to Caroline, even if it was little, but enough to annoy Reuben. That’s why he kidnapped her,” Felipe provokes him again. “You’re asking to be punched, man!” Pedro complained, “Are you a masochist?” The door opens and Daniela enters with shopping bags. “Dear, I’ve already bought the clothes I wanted. Do you think Josias will be upset that I bought some lingerie at the Angel Store?” Daniela finally acknowledges Felipe’s presence. “Hello, Mr. Mountain.” “Why so formal?” Felipe smiled, thrilled by the news of Daniela buying lingerie.
Building My Life Chapter 3090 The Pact of 2010
At Crystal Blue, William and Daryl seal the pact of 2010. “Count on me to unmask these clowns, Will.” Daryl requests eagerly. “Starting with Mrs. Vasquez. This lady had the audacity to betray her husband with his permission, just to have something on the poor doctor to use.” “Do we know this doctor?” Daryl asks with interest. “Dr. Matthew Hogan, son of the legendary Doctor Silvana Hogan. She retired,” William answers nostalgically. “That doctor helped bring practically the entire second generation into the world.” Daryl remembers. “She helped Maggie when she was pregnant with Henrique.” “That’s right, and Henrique is already growing hair on his belly.” William laughs. “Okay, Will, I’ll think of something. We’ll keep in touch.” Daryl and William shake hands. It’s at this moment that the door opens. Felipe walks in to find the scene. “Dad, why are you shaking hands with Mr. Campos?” “First, you greet Mr. Campos, correct?” “Oh, what rudeness on my part.” Felipe smiled at Willi

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?

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
