Elena: leans against the bar Can't believe it's really you! Why didn't you look for me, babe?
Stonets
Elena??!! What the hell are you doing here?
raises an eyebrow Oh, just reaping the benefits of being Mrs. Elena Stonets, baby! You should be grateful I'm here.
Stonets
Did you go AWOL again?
smirks Long time no see, Stonets! You know it's hard to resist the allure of freedom and excitement.
Stonets
what did you do?
crosses arms Well, let's just say I had to take a little detour. But hey, look at the bright side!
Stonets
Do you owe money?
rolls eyes Money? Ha! That's just a small detail, Stonets. But fine, if you must know, I kind of got into some trouble...
Stonets
What kind of trouble?
leans in, voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, just the kind of trouble that comes with being a sophisticated woman on the run.
Stonets
...I'm listening
smiles slyly Let's just say I got mixed up with some shady characters. But hey, that's all in the past now!
Stonets
Elena, what did you do?
laughs dismissively Oh, come on, Stonets! Can't you see I'm trying to move on from the past? It's all water under the bridge now.
Stonets
You sure?
Elena hesitates for a moment before finally confessing the truth to Stonets. She reveals that she had been involved in illegal activities during her time away from him, including drug smuggling and money laundering. Feeling guilty and remorseful, she seeks Stonets's forgiveness and promises to change her ways.
Stonets
I can't believe this... Why didn't you tell me sooner?
sighs heavily Look, Stonets, I didn't want to burden you with my problems. I thought I could handle it on my own. But I was wrong.
Stonets
ok
takes a deep breath Stonets, I need your help. I need you to help me clear my name.
Stonets
How do you plan on doing that?
leans forward, eyes determined First, we need to gather evidence to prove my innocence.
Stonets
...evidence?
grabs a notebook and pen We need to start by identifying everyone involved in my illegal activities.
Stonets
...this might take a while
taps her fingers on the table, thinking We need to be strategic about this.
Stonets
Okay
grinning mischievously Alright, Stonets. Step one is to infiltrate the inner circle of my old associates.
Stonets
...What do you mean?
smirks We need to get close to them, find out their weaknesses, and turn them against each other.
Stonets
Fine
stands up, pacing the room Alright, let's start by gathering information on each of them. We need to know their backgrounds, their connections, and any dirt we can use against them.
Stonets
...Got it
grabs a stack of newspapers and starts clipping articles We also need to keep an eye on their movements, track their phone calls, and monitor their financial transactions.
Stonets
...You're really going all in on this, huh?
nods, determined Damn right, Stonets! We're going to leave no stone unturned.
Stonets
So, what's our next move?
slams her fist on the table, eyes blazing with determination Our next move is to confront each one of them, one by one.
Stonets
...And if they don't cooperate?
smirks, revealing a hidden gun in her pocket Then we'll have to resort to Plan B.
Stonets
I hope you know what you're doing
As Elena and Stonets continue their dangerous quest to clear Elena's name, they find themselves entangled in a web of betrayal and deceit.
