Building My Life Chapter 3180 Eagerly Job Hunting
At the Cardozo Store, the sight of customers coming in and out with purchases was pleasing to Diana and Karen. Especially after they discovered that Daryl’s plan had worked. They were chatting at the counter while no sales associate was nearby.“My husband is a genius. And we owe it to Will Campos as well,” Diane said proudly. “Yes, he was very helpful and a victim in this whole situation,” Karen reflected. “Just imagine what he must have gone through, feeling guilty for breaking Erasmo Vasquez’s ribs, only to find out it was all just lies!” “Now he’s going to sneak off to Spain while his daughter runs Vaztrans, along with my husband, Will, and Suzy Cogo,” Diane smiled triumphantly. “Let’s see if we’ll still hear about financial troubles after the management change,” Karen joked, causing both of them to laugh.In doing so, they didn’t notice Sarah approaching them. “Good morning. I came to leave my resume for the sales position.” Karen and Diane jumped slightly. As the manager,
Building My Life Chapter 3181 Josias Has a Good Memory
Sarah Paes is Brazilian and never gives up. Here she is, walking through the halls of Rocha Constructions, her smile lit up by a charismatic grin, with an elegant canvas bag filled with resumes. She looked like a sower spreading the seed of love across the barren fields of this world. As she approached Tony’s desk, she smiled as she pulled out yet another resume, taking care not to let the papers get wrinkled inside her bag. “Good morning! I came to leave my resume for the assistant position,” she said. “Huh? Beautiful young lady, there is no assistant position.” Tony tried to explain gently. “The job openings are posted on our official website. You can apply there and fill out your information.” “These days, everything is computerized, right?” Sarah commented, maintaining her stance. “That’s right, it’s to make life easier for young ladies like you,” Tony played along. “I can tell you’ve been walking in this scorching sun, handing out resumes.” “Thank you, but I need to show th
Building My Life Chapter 3182 Beto Says Goodbye
Sarah reenters the Teodoro Building. She found a commotion in the lobby, which seemed to be a farewell.Beto, Teresa, and Maycon were packed and hugging Pedro and Daniela goodbye.“Dad, are you sure you’re doing the right thing?” Pedro asked with an emotional voice.“Finally handing over the reins of the building to you?” Beto asked, smiling as he looked around. “Yes, I am. You’re ready, Pete.”Teresa nodded with a sigh. “We’ll miss you, we’ll feel nostalgic, but you understand, right?”Sarah approached them. “Excuse me... Is Mr. Reis leaving?”Daniela confirmed, “Yes, Sarah. They decided to live near Vera, his sister, because of his health.”“It was great while it lasted, but I need to move on with the years I have left.” Beto turned to the wall where his father’s portrait, the legendary Teodoro Reis, hung. Next to it was a picture of him taken years ago, when his hair was still black. Now, Beto showed gray strands, and the vigor of youth was fading.Josias appeared, taking advantage
Building My Life Chapter 3183 Josias’ Helping Hand
At Café Montanha, Neilton was tending the counter while Rodrigo was in the kitchen. Some baked goods were in the oven while Rodrigo monitored the coffee maker.“Yeah... Beto Reis is leaving after many years here.”Nadia nodded sadly. “Rose is at the building, saying goodbye to her dad. He will be missed.”Suddenly, the couple heard voices.“They’re inside.” Neilton was saying.“Thank you.” It was Maggie’s voice. Then she entered. “Hi, everyone! Can someone confirm if what I’m hearing is just gossip?”“If I can help...” Rodrigo joked.“Well, it’s about Beto Reis?” Nadia jumped in. “It’s not gossip. He is indeed moving to Belo Horizonte to be closer to family. Pete will take over the building.”Maggie nodded. “I’m aware of that and plan to run an article in the Maggiezine. But I’m referring to Erasmo and Olivia Vasquez.”Nadia smiled teasingly. “PFF... no, that’s not gossip either. Erasmo and Olivia are apparently traveling to Spain.”“Why did I sense emphasis on ‘apparently’?” Maggie a
Building My Life Chapter 3184 Pedro Keeps the Tradition
Sarah is in her apartment, watching the activity in the slum from her balcony. Her room, interestingly, had the same layout as Josias and Jeremiah’s rooms: rectangular. Right at the entrance was the sofa and a shelf containing the TV, radio, books, and other items. Further in, there was space for a stove, refrigerator, sink, and water filter. The only difference is that her apartment had its own bathroom, unlike the 80s. Sarah didn’t need much; after all, she was single. Sarah’s phone rang, and she hurried to the bed where the device was vibrating. Upon answering, she sat on the mattress. “Hello?” “Hello, this is Karen Britton Mountain.” Karen replied from the counter of Cardozo store. “Am I speaking with Sarah Paes? You left a resume here.” “Yes, I dropped it off last week!” Sarah exclaimed excitedly. “Well, I’m calling to invite you for a job interview. A position has opened up here; would you be interested?” “What kind of question is that? Of course, I’m interested! Where
Building My Life Chapter 3185 Let’s Talk About the Second Topic
Teodoro Building, the next day. Pedro and Daniela are in the lobby, attending to their tasks. Pedro checks on who is defaulting on rent while Daniela sweeps the floor. Some tenants pass by and greet them. Sarah is the next to come down, wearing a stylish gray suit. “Good morning, Reis family!” “Good morning, Sarah,” Daniela replied. “Wow, that suit looks great on you.” “Thank you. I finally got a job. Consider the next rent payment taken care of,” Sarah commented, beaming. Pedro pointed to the computer. “That’s good, I was getting worried.” “PETE!” Daniela lightly scolded him, causing Sarah to laugh. “Well, I need to go.” Sarah positioned herself at the gate. Pedro pressed the button to open the electronic gate. But someone took the opportunity to come in: Felipe. Felipe almost bumped into Sarah as he entered. “Oh, excuse me... you left a resume at Crystal Blue the other day, didn’t you?” “Yes, thank you for your attention,” Sarah replied, somewhat annoyed at being reminded
Building My Life Chapter 3186 This Year We Won’t Be Broke
At the Teodoro Building, the situation was quite embarrassing for Felipe, Daniela, and Pedro. Pedro stepped out from behind the counter and approached his wife. “Aren’t you tired of embarrassing yourself, Felipe?” “Isn’t it true that you’re now dating Suzy Cogo?” Daniela narrowed her eyes. Felipe smiled mischievously at Daniela. “It’s too late for you to regret it, Daniela.” “Who told you I’m—” Daniela shook her head. “Oh, that’s what you get for arguing with crazy people! Where’s the broom?” Daniela grabbed the broom and threatened to hit Felipe with it. He dodged. “Hey, calm down! Why can’t you talk civilly in this place?” “In this place? Are you suggesting we lack civility?” Pedro crossed his arms. “I didn’t come to fight. I just wanted—” Felipe gestured. “To disturb our peace!” Pedro grabbed Felipe by the sleeve of his shirt. “And guess what: you succeeded!” Pedro, in a robust, manly gesture, removed Felipe, pushing and dragging him out without mercy. “Wait, WAIT!” Feli
Building My Life Chapter 3187 Feeding the Stress
Pedro entered Café Montanha, finding Rodrigo and Neilton.“Good morning, Pete! How about a little cup of coffee...” Neilton interrupted himself, noticing the stormy expression on his friend and landlord’s face. “Or should we go with chamomile tea?”“Bring me some tea that has the strongest effect to calm my nerves, please, Neil!” Pedro slumped down on the stool.“Tough day, and it’s not even noon yet, Pete?” Rodrigo tried to help.“You don’t know the half of it. My dad just moved out, and Felipe showed up at the building, apparently wanting to know how we were doing!” Pedro slammed his fist on the counter, startling the owner.“Uh... maybe Felipe just wanted to check on you...” Rodrigo ventured a suggestion.“He knows I want him far away from my dad’s building!” Pedro replied aggressively.Neilton returned from the kitchen with the aforementioned chamomile tea. “It wasn’t made recently, but it’s still warm.”“Thanks.” Pedro took a few sips. “What do I do, Rod? After all, he’s your cou

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
Chapter 3202 No Evidence, No Investigation
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
Chapter 3201 Maybe You're Right
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

The night wore on, and so did the party at the Mountain Penthouse. 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
Chapter 3198 Humiliated in a Crowded Store
Josias wants the family gathered to celebrate the end-of-year holidays, but Alan is more worried about the integrity of the gifts in case João Paulo and Luís stomp on them during a potential fight.“Alan, don’t think about that. There won’t be a fight,” Josias responded confidently.“The only way you can guarantee that is by not inviting one of them. And I know you wouldn’t leave Uncle João Paulo out,” Alan asserted, noticing that his computer had shut down.“I don’t want the family incomplete this time,” Josias replied emotionally. “Carol is still in Rio. David has become a pain and isn’t answering my calls. I only have you and J.J. as my children.”Alan frowned. “It saddens me to know that you considered inviting David. Wasn’t it you who fiercely reprimanded David months ago?”“Yes, and he has been behaving since then,” Josias replied, unaware that his son was causing a scene at Angel’s store at that moment. “In fact
Chapter 3197 Don’t Worry About the Gifts
At the Rocha Mansion, in addition to the Christmas spirit, everyone was eagerly awaiting the Great Phone Call from Everaldo. “Mom, is today the day that Prophet Everaldo is going to call Uncle Josias?” Mary sweetly asked as she hung ornaments on the Christmas tree in the living room. “Maybe, dear,” Melissa replied, checking her phone. “He usually does it between Christmas and New Year1s.” Simeon and Dora entered, also checking their phones. “There are no messages on my phone,” Simeon commented. “Not even on mine,” Dora said as she sat down on the couch. “And I still can’t believe that last year, the call ended up at the Mountain Penthouse.” “What a miracle they behaved this year, huh?” Simeon joked. William, who was organizing the gifts on the carpet, suddenly stopped, feeling guilt weigh on him. Not only did Daryl NOT behave, but he was also part of the mischief! William resumed what he was doing, convincing himself that it was for a good cause. Ignacio noticed the pause. “
Chapter 3196 Permission to Date
At Café Montanha, David was only served by another waiter since Neilton was deliberately attending to other customers. “Your supervisor lacks professionalism,” David said. But the helpers, also coming from the Uélton Freire Orphanage, just shook their heads, refusing to interact with David. He wanted coffee, they served coffee. Just that. Looking back at the table where Suzy and Felipe were interacting romantically, David felt a burning sensation in his stomach. He approached them again, holding a cup of cappuccino. “Feeling better, Suzy?” “I was much better before you approached,” Suzy replied, dissatisfied. Felipe huffed. “Dude, don’t you know when you’re not welcome in the conversation?” “I’m Josias Rocha’s son,” David replied arrogantly. “I don’t need to be ‘welcome’ in conversations. I approach and talk to whoever I want, as I please!” Suzy finished drinking her coffee, banging her cup on the saucer. “Are you done, dear? Come on, I need to stop by Vaztrans.” David narrow
