Elliot playfully teased the girls with that information but told them to stay tuned because soon there would be a trial against their ex-friend's parents. Before saying goodbye to them, they exchanged phone numbers.

"What's wrong. Debbie?" Elliot asked, noticing her melancholic expression.

"It felt strange talking with people my own age," Deborah admitted.

"Well, you'd better get used to it, my love, because this will be your new way of life." Just then, Jayden arrived carrying a large gift bag.

"Hello, my love," Deborah greeted him with a kiss on the lips.

"How was the shopping?" Jayden asked, noticing that they weren't carrying any bags.

"Excellent! Debbie just bought me a luxury gaming chair"

"The new one with the cup holder?"

Yes, that one," Elliot said, happily showing off a photo of his new chair.

"Wow... I'm going to get jealous because my Deborah hasn't given me such an expensive gift," Jayden joked, noticing that Deborah was blushing at the comment. "It's because I'm special, right, Debbie?"

"Not everyone gets a diploma," Deborah said with a smile.

"Well, you're right, and that's why I brought you this," Jayden said, handing over the bag he was carrying.

Elliot took the bag and, upon opening it, screamed with excitement as it contained the latest video game console that had just been released for pre-order.

"Oh yes, thank you!" he said, hugging Jayden. "Now I have the full game."

"Congratulations, little genius. I assume you haven't had dinner yet?"

"No," both replied.

"Let's go to the new Asian restaurant that just opened Jayden suggested, noticing their excitement.

With that, they spent the evening enjoying a good meal and listening to Elliot's plans. Thanks to the success of the new jewelry collection pre-orders, the few partners still loyal to Roger had changed their minds and were now supporting Elliot. "It's good that you're gradually earning respect, and the important thing is that your work shines on its own," Jayden commented.

"Hm... that's what my dad told me, and with this, I now have more support for a new collection," Elliot said excitedly.

"Do you have a new idea already?"

"Yes, I have a few ideas and have started working on the designs, I'm even thinking of a children's line for

The couple listened as the teenager spoke with excitement about his designs and the precious jewels. and metals he was choosing.

After dinner, the couple took Elliot home, and after making sure he had entered his house, they headed to their own home to rest. "How did work go?" Deborah asked.

"Good, so far everything is in order, and if we continue like this, we won't have problems with the delivery."

"Why do you say so?"

"Well, love, in a month, the rainy season is supposed to start, and as a builder, I need to be aware of that, especially since we leave the gardens and exterior details until the end." "True, but I'm sure everything will be fine, and Mother Nature will let you work well."

"I hope so," Jayden said, starting to park the car. "How about we put on our pajamas and watch a...

Christian?"

Deborah looked at her partner, showing confusion until she noticed that Christian was waiting for them at their doorstep.

"Hi, have you been waiting long?" Jayden greeted as he got out of the car.

"I just crossed over to see if you were home," Christian said, helping Deborah out of the vehicle.

"Thank you," Deborah said, smiling as she took his hand. "What do you need?"

"I want to talk to you about something very important, Christian said, becoming slightly serious.

The couple understood what he was referring to and led him inside to speak privately.

"Would you like some coffee?" Deborah asked.

"Make enough for everyone, I brought some cookies to go with it," Christian said, making Deborah smile as she saw her friend entering the house. Jayden went to the kitchen to help his partner with the coffee.

After everything was served, the four sat down to talk.

"First, I want to tell you that the trial will be this Monday at 10, Christian informed Deborah, looking her in the eye.

"Finally, this will be over," Jayden said.

"Yes, in fact, I'm preparing to end it and ensure they stay in prison forever. But I wanted to tell you that I discovered something more about them." "More?" Jayden asked, frowning.

Yesum Deborah, I know this will be horrible to hear, but I want you to know this before they uses

"What..." Deborah said, scared as she covered her mouth with her hands as she began to tremble.

"Deep breaths, my love," Jayden said, trying to comfort her with an embrace. "Christian, how sure are you about this?"

"Today, Frederick's lawyer hinted that we wouldn't reach trial because Deborah would forgive them, which made me uneasy. So, I started investigating," Christian said, taking a breath before continuing.
