reporters.

The days began to pass quickly, and despite Roger and his lawyer's best efforts to prevent it, news of the trial became public. Now, all the media were digging for details about the big scandal, which meant that the families involved started getting harassed by curious In addition, gossip spread quickly within the Peterson Group.

"So...now he's just an ordinary employee."

"He deserves it."

"Yeah, God, it was disgusting to see that stupid blonde parading around like she owned the place."

"It's good that traitors get what they deserve."

'Now that he doesn't have money, he doesn't feel so untouchable anymore."

Roger frowned, gripping the pencil tightly and breaking it in the process-those' idiots' were talking as if he wasn't just meters away from them.

"When I become president again, I'll fire all of you. You'll see, I'll make you suffer,' Roger thought, cursing his so-called colleagues.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"Hey, you're here to work, so cut the gossip," Edgar's voice came, scolding his subordinates, who quickly apologized and got back to work. Roger silently thanked his boss for that and returned his attention to his current problem: crafting the jewelry depicted in the drawings.

The company's large workshop was one of the best, equipped with the necessary tools and machinery to shape precious metals. They also had a special vault stocked with the finest gemstones to create all kinds of jewelry. But Roger wasn't good at craftsmanship-he was only good at judging the authenticity of jewelry, not creating it.

"Why the hell didn't I go to the authentication department? Ugh..." he muttered, looking at the tools with hatred as he struggled to shape the gold as desired.

After a few hours, he stood up, took a look at the time, and went home. He didn't even go out for lunch anymore because he wanted to make those jewels. Besides, he also wanted to avoid all those reporters who kept harassing him and asking about Deborah.

Meanwhile, a certain brunette was watching the chaos unfold on TV, as it was the hottest topic of the year and almost all news programs were covering it.

As she listened to the reporters, she sighed.

'How interesting. More people are starting to take my side.' Deborah thought as she took her folic acid pill.

"And according to our correspondent, the trial will take place next Monday. With the way things are going, this trial will be quite a show. And of course, our channel will be there to bring you live coverage of the entire proceeding. Now back to the studio," the reporter said, smiling.

'Well, my baby, seems like we're going to be a spectacle for a lot of people,' she thought as she caressed her still-flat belly. I can't wait to see you grow a little more and know who you'll be
