Building My Life Chapter 3094 She Regrets Not Being Sober
Olivia woke up with a headache so intense that, for a moment, she thought she might be having a stroke. She managed a faint smile, furrowed her brow, and pressed her fingers to her neck, feeling reassured when everything seemed normal.No, it wasn’t a stroke — just a brutal hangover from the previous night. As she became more aware, she noticed a new ache, particularly from her waist down.Pulling the blankets away, Olivia’s heart sank as she realized she wasn’t wearing a nightgown. Her eyes darted around the unfamiliar room, her confusion growing when she saw Luis lying beside her. He was completely naked, face-down with his head buried in the pillow.“Calm down, Olivia,” she muttered to herself. “Let’s try to remember what happened last night...”But as she tried to piece the evening together, the pounding in her temples only intensified.She could only recall fragments: a different, attractive man, leading her toward a secluded corner of the club meant for private encounters. But t
Building My Life Chapter 3095 Embarrassing Conversation
Alan walked into Crystal Blue, spotting Jake at the maître d’ station. Alan was too engrossed in his cell phone conversation, frowning as he listened.“I don’t understand,” Alan said into his phone, confusion clear in his voice. “Are you apologizing if I was offended in some way?”Jake waited politely for the Rocha Constructions heir to finish his call, all while he prepared the system to reserve a table.“Yes, Olivia Vasquez — my mother-in-law,” Alan continued. “Was she disrespected?”Jake covered his mouth with his right hand, hiding a mischievous smile as he listened in.“Okay, apologies accepted,” Alan concluded. “She likes to have fun with her friends and needs peace. The last thing I need is Uncle João Paulo making a scene about this. Thank you.” He ended the call and turned to Jake.“Sorry to keep you waiting,” Alan said. “I need a table for two, please.”Jake nodded. “No problem, sir. Trouble with your mother-in-law?”Alan shot him a suspicious look. “And why would that intere
Building My Life Chapter 3096 We Need to Talk
Erasmo was furiously typing a notice on his computer, addressing an unexpected issue with his employees.“With this,” he muttered, reading aloud as he typed, “I urge you, my dear collaborators, to refrain from bringing girls or your wives to engage in intimate activities inside the buses while they are in the garage—”Suddenly, Daryl burst into the room. “So, your workers really go that far, huh? They say employees reflect their boss’s character.”Startled, Erasmo clutched his chest, feeling a sharp pain. “Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!” he grimaced, his hand pressing his left side. Daryl just chuckled.“If I took a picture of this...” Daryl teased.“I’m on the verge of kicking the bucket here, and you’re MAKING JOKES? Call an ambulance!” Erasmo demanded.Daryl ignored him, calmly closing the office door. “Come on. You’re not going to die of a heart attack like old man Reis.”“The ‘old Reis’ died in 1985, sixteen years before I came to this city,” Erasmo replied, somewhat collected. “Though
Building My Life Chapter 3097 The Nickname Was a Trigger
Suzy catches Luís trying to share explosive news. She walks into the office and closes the door. “Come on, Luís, spill it! Who did you sleep with this time? Your cousin Sofia?” Luís’ eyes widen to their maximum, and he shakes his head vehemently. “No, you crazy! Sofia is, as you said, my cousin!” “So it was your aunt Olivia then?” “SHUT UP!” Luís’ voice echoed like thunder. Suzy purses her lips, trying to understand better. “For sure, you slept with someone you shouldn’t have, which is why you’re in such a panic. And it’s someone close to you, since you said ‘my’.” “Did you marry Sherlock Holmes or Hercule Poirot?” Luís asks her sourly, squinting in annoyance. Suzy flashes a slight smile. “No, I’m just enjoying seeing you uncomfortable.” “And all of this is revenge because we’re not dating? We can fix that.” Luís tries to get closer to her. Suzy, on her part, takes two steps back. “No, thanks! I don’t want Jake to show up here hearing you all desperate, lamenting that you sl
Building My Life Chapter 3098 Daryl Takes an Interest in Social Programs
At Café Montanha, Rodrigo was having a quick chat with Neilton about the conditions of the place. Rodrigo was wearing a tie and formal clothing, contrasting with Neilton’s more eclectic style and that of the other employees. “We’re missing instant coffee, milk, cheese, ham... what else?” “Baking powder for the cakes,” Neilton replied, adding to the list. “OK...” Rodrigo noted it in an electronic organizer. “I’ll bring everything from the supermarket.” “And will we get a discount?” Neilton joked, “I have some coupons...” “No, we won’t be getting discounts; I’m not charging you, you clown.” Rodrigo laughed as well. Diane and Daryl entered, talking and heading straight to a table. “You should have seen Helen’s shock when I revealed that Karen will be taking care of the Cardozo stores, darling,” Diane said as they sat down. “It’s always like this. These people don’t forgive or forget,” Daryl pulled out a chair for Diane to sit like a lady. Diane, melting from the gesture, smiled
Building My Life Chapter 3099 João Paulo Doesn’t Get Tired of Being a Journalist
At Crystal Blue, Benjamin and Jake return to the lounge. Felipe is pouring himself a shot of brandy to calm his nerves. “I think I’ll want a shot too,” Jake jokes, not eliciting any laughter from anyone. “Your uncle just left,” Felipe announces grimly. “And what did he say? Does he want you to fire me?” Jake’s eyes widen. “No, he came to apologize for having a quarrelsome maître,” Felipe shoots him a reproachful look. “Well, it’s not like I do this every day,” Jake gestures dismissively. “I was just angry at the possibility that Luís Vasquez deflowered my sister.” Felipe raises his eyebrows. “Is it still just a possibility?” “Exactly,” Jake confirms, embarrassed. “Well, I’m off to my duties,” Benjamin pats Felipe on the shoulder and walks away. Daryl and Diane pass by Benjamin and greet him. They approach Felipe, sensing the gloomy atmosphere. “What happened here? Jake, did you fight a thief?” Daryl asks. “No, I fought with Luís Vasquez.” Daryl and Diane exchange ironic gl
Building My Life Chapter 3100 Everaldo Talks to Another Person
At the Rocha Hotel, the kitchen was ‘burning’ with activity. Benjamin was sampling dishes from the cooks with his critical and analytical sense, frowning when he sensed something was off—particularly with Sybil’s dishes.“Sybil, I keep getting rubbery or bland shrimp.” Benjamin warned her with the typical tone of voice that a chef uses.“Chef Teixeira, I’m doing my best!” Sybil retorted, slumped at the appetizer station.Benjamin pointed to the chef next to Sybil. “Let me see your dish.”Benjamin tasted it. The shrimp was delicious and perfectly seasoned.“Send this to table 12.”“Yes, chef!”Sybil reacted in disbelief, feeling unjustly treated. “What’s wrong with my dish?”“Come with me!” Benjamin took Sybil and led her out of the kitchen into the hallway.“What’s the problem?” Sybil grumbled.“I should be the one asking you that question.” Benjamin complained. “Did anything happen while I was gone?”“David Rocha insulted me, and I insulted him back,” Sybil chose to reveal.“What?

Building My Life Chapter 3101 The Year Starts Off Bad for David
The Mountain family celebrated the fireworks in the living room of the Mountain Penthouse, where they could observe the famous balcony through the access door. Tony watched closely from the balcony, filming the spectacle for posterity, as he said. Daryl poured champagne for everyone. Diane grabbed her glass, and they both clinked, smiling, confident that everything would turn out well. Kelvin and Karen were on the sofa, taking care of Anthony, who, surprisingly, was not bothered by the fireworks. The baby, about to turn one, looked around with bright eyes as if he were aware of everything happening. “It’s his first New Year’s Eve, dear.” Kelvin kissed Karen’s cheek. Daryl raised his glass to the ceiling. “Guys, it’s time to share something that will excite everyone! Hey, Tony, come here for a moment!” Tony returned to the living room. “I managed to capture a good angle of the show.” Felipe came in from the kitchen holding a platter of fried snacks. “Here’s more cheese balls and

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

2012.After the celebrations, Alan was standing in his office, talking to Josias on his cell phone. Rocha Constructions was relatively empty, but the heir was there early in the day, setting an example."Dad, I had an idea regarding Everaldo's prophecy."On the other side, at Rocha Mansion...Josias was still in bed, being cuddled and clung to by a persistent Melissa who was stroking her hand on her husband's fit and virile body."Erh... what did you think, SON?"Josias emphasized the 'son' to get Melissa to stop her mischief, but she giggled and continued to pinch some forbidden parts of her husband."I think Everaldo was warning us to be careful with Suzy Cogo," Alan replied seriously."Why?" Josias frowned."Because Sofia has been on alert with her since last year," Alan answered. "And she's the only investor I have in mind.""Son, Sofia needs to relax and stop causing trouble with other women." Josias tried to push Melissa away. "If not, I'll think she's jealous of her cousin.""O

There was now more food around, and everyone was conversing, sharing stories and reminiscing about moments from 2011.Felipe had arrived, bringing Suzy with him.“Suzy, come closer! Oh, where are your uncle and brother?” Diane asked kindly.“They didn’t feel worthy of attending,” Suzy replied humbly, also feeling out of place in the luxurious penthouse.Daryl shook his head. “Nonsense. Call them and tell them they are welcome.”“They’ll manage at Crystal Blue along with other hotel members.” Suzy sat down in the spot indicated by Kelvin.Felipe sat next to Suzy. “Well, dear. You already know they will be welcome next year.”Karen joked, “Maybe next year, Suzy will be completely integrated into the family.”Everyone laughed and applauded, leaving Suzy blushing but happy.Yes, that is what she wants – to
Chapter 3199 A Gift That Made William Sad
At the Rocha Mansion, Dora and Simeon were talking to William in a corner of the living room about Stacy Moreira, now Stacy Bento.“Son, do you still miss Stacy?” Simeon asked, surprised.“I don’t know, Dad.” William sighed, still holding the package. “I didn’t expect to receive a gift from her after all these years...”“Well, she seems to harbor no grudges. Neither she nor her husband,” Dora commented.“I don’t even know if I should open the gift. I’ll decide tomorrow.” William finally got up and placed the package under the tree.Simeon and Dora exchanged worried glances. Melissa approached them.“Dad, Mom, what happened?”“Sweetheart, Will received a gift from Stacy.” Simeon added ironically, “Do you remember her?”“I remember, unfortunately.” Melissa pouted. “Isn’t she happy and married to Igor in Victoria?”“Yes, but she decided to mess with my boy’s emotions.” D
