And so, in the blink of an eye, December had arrived–a month that marked the end of the year. With it, Deborah and Jayden were busy wrapping up the final tasks at the company before their holiday break. They were so focused on this that they put everything related to the wedding on hold. The year–end account closures took priority, and, unfortunately, their parents agreed with them. However, they made them promise to pick up where they left off once the new year began.
At that moment, Deborah was in her office, finishing up her review of several important investment accounts for the month. But after staring at numbers for so long, she started feeling dizzy and stood up to gaze at the sky for a while.
As she watched the clouds drift by, she couldn’t help but reflect on everything that had happened up until
now.
For her, living through these moments felt like some kind of dream; after all, this year had brought about such a dramatic change compared to the last.
She had divorced Roger at the beginning of the year, reconnected with and rid herself of Frederick and his family in the middle of the year, and shortly after, gave birth to her little angel. She had remarried, found her real father, and now she was working in her grandfather’s office, preparing for the company’s Christmas party.
Certainly, when thought of in that way, it seemed as though she were recounting her life as if it were a novel. But this wasn’t fiction–it was her reality.
“Believe and you can achieve,” she whispered, taking a sip of her hot coffee.
Those words perfectly summed up everything that had happened, because everything occurred because she was determined to change, and she’d succeeded. Now, she would continue to move forward on the new path she had chosen.
Just then, she was interrupted from her thoughts as the office door opened.
“Boss, here’s what you asked me to find and… ah… oops,” Danielle entered, excited because she had found what Deborah asked for, but quickly fell silent when she saw the little one asleep.
“Hehe, don’t worry, he just fell asleep, and I doubt you’ll wake him,” Deborah replied, placing her cup on her desk. “So, did you get it?”
“Yep, they still had a few left,” Danielle declared, handing her a book. “And they mentioned that you can place an order with this catalog. Look here,” she said, opening it to show her. “You fill in the buyer’s details here, and for each image, there’s a space to specify the quantity you want to order. There’s also a section to note how the toys should be wrapped. And finally, for a negotiable fee, they can deliver the gifts in a truck,” she explained, pointing out all the specifications.
“Oh, that’s great.”
“Yeah, they’ve really improved, especially since this toy store is special and famous for providing gifts for events and Christmas parties.”
“They’re definitely capitalizing on the market and the season,” Deborah commented happily. She had secretly bought some shares in the company. Now that she was about to sell them, she had managed to

make a profit, which she intended to donate to the orphanage.
“Hm… by the way, Boss, are these toys for the company’s Christmas party?”
“No, I’ll be using this catalog to order the gifts for the children at the orphanage, since they sent us their
letters to Santa.”
“Aww… that’s such a kind gesture,” Danielle remarked. But can I ask why you were so deep in thought?”
“Am I that obvious?”
“Well, it’s my job to notice all the details around me.”
“Hehe, true. I was just thinking that sometimes it feels like I’m living in a dream because of everything that’s happened,” Deborah confessed, turning to look out the other window at the workers walking up and down the hallways of the company. Her gaze settled on her father, who was chatting with Max and some employees,
“Well, I think it’s normal to feel that way, considering the crazy year you’ve had.”
“Hm… but the most important thing in all of this is that I’ve reconnected with my mother and grandfather, and have James with me,” she said, smiling.
