THE PRESIDENT'S FAVORITE JOURNALIST 84. JOINT FORCE
MONICA’S POVI was thoroughly disturbed about the feedback my secretary brought me about the people that I told her to contact and schedule a meeting with. I knew it would be an easy move but I was not expecting such a large percent to turn me down immediately.“I thought they said they were loyal to my mother, why are they refusing to help her daughter then? With everything I have done for them in the company to show that I am capable of carrying on her legacy, they still do not trust me enough?” I kept muttering to myself as I drove to the address Madam Antonio sent to me.I was glad that I accepted her lunch invitation, if not I would have been curled up in my office and getting depressed over the fact that what I wanted was not working. With those thoughts running through my mind, I pulled up in front of the cozy restaurant and was ushered immediately without even asking me any question about my identity.“The madam had given us the instruction to usher you inside immediately you

Marcus stood in front of the mirror dressed in his tailored suit as he checked himself out. Several thoughts were running through his head as he stared at himself.“Will I do well? I am afraid that I will mess everything up. I have never done this in my entire life” he kept soliloquizing to himself as he waited for the person who was to pick him up.“You are ready sir, shall we?” his secretary walked into the room with a bright smileHe turned to see who was talking because the voice was unfamiliar and saw a new face standing in front of him in a blue shirt and black knee length skirt. She was neatly dressed and stood politely with her hands in front of her abdomen.“And you are?” he asked, staring at her“Your new Secretary, sir. You can call me Amy” she gentle responded“I see, Amy.” He muttered and added “Please take care of me. As you can see, I have a lot to learn” “I will be glad to be of great help to you sir. It is my pleasure” she answered and gave a slight bowHe turned to
THE PRESIDENT'S FAVORITE JOURNALIST 86. UNRAVELLING
Irene, Monica and I grew up together and they knew that I was always reserved. I rarely use the harsh and curse words except I was extremely worked up. I didn’t have any choice but to lash at Irene when she kept questioning the reason why I had to go to the hospital.“Irene! Can you fcking go to the hospital?” I growled coldly and I could see her shudder at my actions.“Hey Petals, is something wrong? You rarely get worked up like this” she muttered, trying not to rile me up the more but I rather kept quiet than yell at her again so I just glued my eyes to the road instead.We all arrived at the hospital and I asked for one of the doctors that I was acquainted with. Thankfully, he was around and not busy so he attended to us without hesitation.“I don’t know why these spots keep getting many instead of disappearing. They told me that they were syringe marks that he obtained during the time he was sick at the hospital but they weren’t as many as this those times. I wonder why it keeps

“Why are you being like this? Is something attached to the orphanage? Do you even know the woman?” I asked, rushing after him as he left the room in a hurry.He paused and sighed. “I told you that everyone in that picture are the people I am looking for to complete a specific task. They are extremely needed” he responded, trying not to sound too sensitive“Oh I see but that woman is not in her right state of mind though” I stated and it got him puzzled again“What do you mean by she’s not in the right state of mind? Did something happen to her?” he questioned and I shrugged“I don’t know the origin of her sickness but then she’s living in the small building at the back of the orphanage. I happened to walk in on her by chance and I couldn’t find out any reasonable information about her but then one thing was obvious, her love for the kids” I explained“She has always loved the kids like her own children. Only her has their best interest at her” he mumbled between his breath and I nodde
THE PRESIDENT'S FAVORITE JOURNALIST 88. WHERE IS JANE?
MEI’S POVI was feeling skeptical about visiting my mother since it’s been ages I heard from her. I didn’t even tell her about me schooling in another country because I didn’t want to look selfish considering the relationship between her and my sister.Ever since she got remarried, everything went downhill between all of us. I could remember that we were a happy family that loved each other and would do anything for each other.

THE PRESIDENT'S FAVORITE JOURNALIST 89. SOMEONE'S MISFORTUNE
By the time I woke up, I was told that I had been out for more than forty eight hours. This time, I was much calmer and back to my old self even though I was still remembering all the memories I just recovered.“Are you feeling pain anywhere? Do you need attention in any part of your body?” my doctor asked over and over in order to make sure that I was indeed fineI nodded with a faint smile and responded “Don’t worry, I can always call the button if I am in need of you” and he agreed“Don’t stress yourself for the time being and just rest. The IV will run for more days so you will be hospitalized till then. I hope you bear with us for those times” he said with care and I was touched by his gentleness“I know it’s not easy to stay in bed” he added with a bright smile which I returnedI shrugged and also said “I just have to get used to it. It will be over soon after all” and we bumped knuckles before he left my ward.I kept thinking about what could have happened that day but nothing
THE PRESIDENT'S FAVORITE JOURNALIST 90. A GIRL I KNOW
Even though I wasn’t supposed to visit the orphanage at that moment, I had to visit the orphanage the next day. Immediately I sighted Pureza, I ran over to check his shoulder to see if there was no new spots that were different from the ones he had before I left the last time.“Aunty” he called out slowly with a cute voice and my mouth hung open in surprise.That was the first time ever he opened his mouth to say a word ever since I had been visiting him. He preferred silent gestures and expressions that I would understand instead of talking and seeing how he called my name, I was almost moved to tears.Trying to control my emotions, “Oh baby, how are you doing?” I said back at him and he responded with a cute smile lurking on his lips“I am fine” I patted his shoulders after pulling his cheeks slightly and said “You are now a grown cutie. Let’s talk more from now on” He nodded in response and we both walked back to the open field where I spread out all the delicacies I brought for
THE PRESIDENT'S FAVORITE JOURNALIST 91. HER CRISIS
Madam Antonio took hold of what Monica said about her hearing that Laura owns Elite painting that she was digging into when she saw her picture.“I heard they are an upcoming company but if they could snag a contract with such a company then they have a powerful backing. It all makes sense now if Laura is truly the owner of the company” Madam Antonio thought aloud to herself as she paced to and fro the balcony before her aide arrived“You asked for me ma’am” the man said to call her attention and she halted.Turning to him, she closed the distance and kept her voice low. “Look into Elite painting, look for something that might prove the link between Laura and the company” she instructedWith a bow, he responded “I will do that with immediate effect” and walked away to carry out the task“You better not be the one behind all these mess. If not, I will show you how vicious a woman can be because of her child” she muttered, her eyes brimming with anger.Few hours after, her aide came bac
