Building My Life Chapter 3166 David Burned His Chances
Dylan and his men cordoned off the damaged area of the Lafayette Supermarket, ushering onlookers away before the supermarket structure harmed anyone else. The injured were transported by ambulance to General Hospital. Nadia was taken home. Thierry and Rodrigo remained nearby, answering questions.“Rod, you can go back to the cafeteria if you want,” Thierry suggested inside the management office.“I’ve been around and checked the truck. I need to give my testimony,” Rodrigo replied.Dylan entered the management office, finding the two gentlemen there.“Well, has anyone found the driver?” Dylan asked seriously.“He’s being questioned by one of your men outside,” Thierry said as he approached the blinds and pulled them back.He could see from a distance the pale and frightened truck driver, swearing his innocence while Dylan’s subordinate merely took note of what he said with an indifferent expression.Dylan broke the silence, “At most, Josias Junior will have to bear the costs.

Building My Life Chapter 3167 Josias and David Seal the Peace
At Crystal Blue, the patrons who show up for lunch are discussing the truck accident at the Lafayette Supermarket. Suzy walks in, finding Jake at his post as maître d’.“Jake, how are the investigations into the accident going? It’s all anyone talks about on the streets.”Jake shook his head. “They say the truck driver forgot to engage the handbrake. The truck was empty when it crashed into the wall. No one died – so far.”“What a horror.” Suzy took a deep breath, focusing on why she was there. “Has Luís arrived yet?”Felipe passes by and is startled when Suzy casually asks about Luís.“Suzy, are you going to have lunch or go out with Luís Vasquez?”Suzy turned to him, smiling affectionately. “That’s right. I need to keep him informed that I plan to invest in his uncles’ company.”“Don’t you think it would be better to talk about this with Mrs. Vasquez or Sofia Rocha?” Felipe asked, trying not to sound jealous.“I don’t think they like me; I can’t imagine why.” Suzy scratched her fore

Neilton and Beto enter Café Montanha. Neilton’s helpers breathe a sigh of relief at the return of their supervisor. “We thought you got run over by that out-of-control truck!” “Not this time, Phil!” Neilton laughed as he went behind the counter. “I’m perfectly fine. I just picked up a lost box from my old apartment.” Beto pointed to the display case, where baked cheese and ham pastries mesmerized the customers. “But now you’re one of my happy tenants. Give me that pastry, please.” Neilton served the pastry but teased, “Does your wife know you’re eating cheese and ham?” “That stays between us.” Beto chuckled. He grabbed the pastry, but just as he was about to take the first bite... “ROBERTO REIS!” Beto nearly had a heart attack—figuratively—and looked toward the entrance. Josias approached him, in a good mood. “Does your wife know you’ve been sneaking pastries?” “Baked pastry, please. There’s not a drop of soybean oil in here.” Beto pretended to be offended. He just wanted to
Building My Life Chapter 3169 He’s Back
On the cover of the LCN newspaper, the headline blared in bold letters: HE’S BACK.Below it, a colorized and enlarged photo of Luís Vasquez toasting with Suzy Cogo.Jake had seen the annoying and intrusive photographer, so he left his post as maître to chase down the miscreant.But the photographer seemed to be a disciple of Batman or Peter Parker because he vanished without a trace.At the Vasquez Mansion, tensions were running high. Luís intended to take revenge against his aunt, but now, this issue had postponed the main concern.Olivia was reacting hysterically, not because of the article itself, but because it was Suzy — and not her...“This is OUTRAGEOUS!” Olivia neighed, disturbing the peace of everyone at the breakfast table.Erasmo, filled with rage, ripped the newspaper into shreds, throwing the pieces to the floor, confident that the servants would clean up the mess afterward.“We need to fight back.” Erasmo said, panting like a Spanish bull.Alan shook his head. “I can’t g

Bernardo approaches Erasmo and leads him to the nearest chair. Maggie served him a glass of cold water. She said, “Calm down, Mr. Vasquez. You’re hyperventilating.” Erasmo grabs the glass of water and drinks it eagerly. “Ah, thank you... phew, I really needed this miraculous glass of water. Where were we?” Bernardo scratches the back of his neck. “You called me ‘Bernie’ and asked for a cover story...” “Ah, yes, about Suzy being my business partner.” Erasmo smiled mischievously. “Did Suzy agree to such a story, Mr. Vasquez?” Maggie asked cautiously. “No, but that’s what the surprise is for, right?” Erasmo winked. “I want to surprise this bunch of fools who’s been whispering nasty things about the poor girl and the real reason she had lunch with Luis.” Bernardo and Maggie exchange awkward glances. Bernardo opined, “Aren’t they in a relationship?” “No, Suzy wants to date Felipe Mountain. Well, they could have been dating if it weren’t for João Paulo Queiroz’s disgusting articles

In Crystal Blue, love is in the air. Felipe and Suzy seal their relationship with the first of many kisses. “Is it official now?” Felipe asks cheerfully. “Now it’s official!” Suzy digs into her pocket and pulls out an expensive phone she bought with her settlement money. “Call the Teodoro Building and tell them we’re dating.” Felipe chuckles, taking the phone. A good opportunity to rub his victory in certain people’s faces... At the Teodoro Building, Pedro checks important matters on the computer while Daniela sorts the mail into the tenants’ mailboxes. The landline ringing breaks the monotony of the lobby. “Teodoro Building, Pedro Reis, good morning?” “Pete! This is Felipe Mountain!” “Should I hang up on you if you say something stupid?” The unusual question made Daniela raise her eyebrows. Curious, she decides to get closer... Felipe chuckles and continues, “You need to listen to me. You and Daniela no longer need to worry. I’m dating Suzy Cogo.” Pedro feels a jolt of s

Rocha Hotel, late afternoon. Luís, reinstated in his job, was back at his old desk checking what he had missed. The door opened, and Eugenio appeared. “Comfortable, Luís? Good thing David didn’t change anything.” Luís frowned as he replied, staring at the computer, “He didn’t mess with the office, but he really messed things up here. There are tons of computer viruses coming from adult sites.” Eugenio blushed to the roots of his hair. “That bastard son of Josias must be his worst regret.” Eugenio closed the door before expressing what was stuck deep inside him. Luís smiled slightly, agreeing. “He’s downstairs, taking care of the receptionists and bellboys like old times.” Eugenio cleared his throat before continuing, “Luís, what do you intend to do regarding the front-page story in the newspaper?” “I need to handle a few matters first,” Luís replied in a dark tone. Eugenio grew more fearful. There was an aura of destruction around Luís that he had not known before. No one wou

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,
