Mr Martinez pov;

Someone in the television, "Affair between The CEO and a High-Schooler has been the hot topic for over a week. Alexander Martinez, who is a CEO of Skyland corporation, has been accused of having an affair with a High-Schooler a week ago but still it is the hot search. The pictures of them being intimate has been released online which created a ruckus in the business world. A 24 year old guy being intimate with a 17 year old school girl? Was that girl forced to be with him? What is the relationship between them?..."

Mr Johnson turned off the television while saying, "Why are you watching this sh*t? It's all over the headlines in every channel for a week, even though I said not to telecast and spread anymore, they're still doing it?" Mr Johnson whined beside me.

"What about Ms Garcia?"

"I've checked her house, school, and her workplace and places she took jobs. Everyone's saying that they don't know anything about her and her mother's whereabouts. They sound like Isabella and her mother suddenly disappeared. There's no point in investigating them anymore, Sir."

"What about her phone?"

"She left the phone behind in her house so it's another deadend. I wonder why she left before even the issue got big because if she left after the issue, it may make sense but disappearance of her even before the news got spreaded made me think about it a lot. Why did she leave before that? Why did she leave even before the news got spreaded. That looks so suspicious, Sir."

"Did you find the source?"

"Yeah, that's why I came to give you this. You wouldn't believe it if I said who it was behind it." And placed a file on the table and continued, "It has the names of who are related to this case. I investigated each and every person and the only name they're saying is Olivia, current president of Rodriguez corporation. I never thought she would be behind this. I know that she has a hatred towards you but even after you giving up the company for Ethan, she is still finding a way to disown you from the business world. Good god, after some explanation and giving some money, the board members somehow let it go. Otherwise, our company would have faced a drastic change in the market. I can't believe she used Isabella against you."

"I had a doubt. Now it's solved. I knew where Isabella might be."

"What? What are you saying? You know where she is. How did you know that?"

"Let's pay a little visit to Rodriguez corporation."

"Why are we going to Rodriguez corporation now? What are you going to do? Are you going to accuse her? No, if you wanted to accuse her, you would have done it a week ago, why would you wait all these days?"

"After being Isabella, you began talking like her."

"Sorry, Sir. Since she talked a lot without leaving a pause, I got used to talking like her to make my point highlighted when I taught her. I think it has become a habit now."

"Looking like, You did end up as her big brother after all."


At the Rodriguez corporation,

Every employee looked like they're working so seriously, no one talked to each other like they're in a prison. When Ethan took care of the company, it was more presentable than this. I wonder how Olivia treats them, making them work like ants. It seems like the company got its position right back into the stable business by working overtime.

I entered Olivia's cabin and saw her talking with her secretary. After seeing me, she still continued talking with her secretary. It's not the first time she's ignoring me so it wasn't a thing for me.
