The meeting place was in Caleb's office. It was supposed to be on the restaurant on the ground floor of the building, but then, there were still reporters waiting outside. They weren't as many as before but we would still have a hard time getting away from them once they see us. Surely, they would be completely gone after a week of not getting anything from us unless Stephanie would do something about it again and that's what she would do for sure after what happened last night.Besides, with the press conference that we would have with ZNA TV, they would still try to get something from us. That wouldn't be a problem anymore then, we would just wait till the fire dies. And then I could start with my new job in ZNA TV which we would also talk about tonight.Henri's team would escort me on the way to Craige Inc. as per Caleb's instructions to them. Since the day we came back here and the press started bombarding us, the security team was now always escortin

 The two of them were still surprised with my sudden determination, until now, they couldn't still believe that I decided to take the press conference now, hence here we are, getting ready on one of ZNA TV's studios. Mr. Zamora came with us and personally led the preparation to make sure that everything would go smoothly and accordingly.Holding the prepared script for us, I read the lines again. Mr. Zamora and Caleb already talked about this, hence Mr. Zamora was able to prepare the script sooner. It wasn't literally a script of what we would say, just the chosen questions that the reporters of ZNA TV would ask us. This was what Caleb was talking about, he controls what would come out to the public and what would stay with him, he controls what to let the public see and know."Sir, we will now post our teaser for your press conference."Caleb nodded to the staff who informed us about the teaser release, we would start one and half hours from now. T

 "You did a great job there, baby."I smiled as I made circles on Caleb's chest. My head was resting on it while he was combing my hair with his fingers, kissing the top of my head from time to time. His tender kisses and fingers were soothing and I couldn't help but to close my eyes as the Advil I took this morning started losing its effect and now my head was aching again, add what had just happened at the entrance of Zamora Newscasting Agency.The beat of his heart was like a soft rhythm in my ears, I couldn't help but to smile even more as I hear it. I was starting to get sleepy, so I didn't respond to him and just listened as he talk, complimenting me."I'm glad to see you fighting back and not letting them have the satisfaction of defeating and ruining you, baby. I like your bravery, fierce and hot.""It wasn't easy though." I wasn't able to help myself help but to respond when he complimented me for being brave. "You know, I'm afraid o

 Thankfully, later on, that day, Geraldine called back and told me she was on her way home. CBNews fired her from work just because of what happened in the bar when it doesn't have something to do with her as one of CBNews' journalists anymore. She was off duty that night and whatever happened at the bar does not have something to do with her duty as a journalist.But then, we were talking about the dirty company of CBNews, so, it wasn't surprising that they did that to her. And for sure, they gave her a feedback that no other news company would accept her. A character reference that was manipulated with lies. That's just how they worked.When I asked her if we could meet, she declined and I could feel it in her voice that she didn't want to talk to anyone for a while. Of course, she probably felt bad after being fired to work and knowing what CBNews did to her character reference. Just like me, Geraldine was a self-supporting individual, so she needed to

 Hazel Quin'sSince the call ended, I stayed silent and stopped reviewing. My mind was clouded with thoughts and I couldn't concentrate. I was just focused on the thought of Caleb's secret. He was finally giving it to me, he was doing it in his will.My eyes then looked at the screen of my laptop where my first draft of the article about Caleb's secret that I was supposed to write. It was still incomplete, of course. The last draft that I had was the time when he met his father again and after that, I was able to continue it after things happened.His father.I remember the time when he cried on me while we were in the car, it was the first time he opened up to me about his backstory. And that's when I found out that Caleb didn't have a good life before, his early life was away from the wealth and glamour that he has right now.He was a struggling working student back then and a scholar closed to a malnourished teen. His father always
