The Traps of the Black Swan (Book 2)

334

At the B-news office,

In the conference room, Maisie was sitting with her chin up. A smug smile was too obvious on the face.

When she reached the B-news building and demanded to meet the chief editor, it was a little difficult.

Then somebody identified her as Mrs. Kim. Assuming they might get some juicy news, an editor sat to speak with her. She simply stated it's sensational news about Ruby Jane, the president of Skylar.

She hesitated to give the envelope but still handed it to her. The editor who saw just a few lines - Ruby Jane is a mask to her real identity Jennie.

The editor understood the depth of the situation and took Maisie to the 5th floor.. The editor was alarmed because if they published any false news against Ruby Jane, she had the power to destroy whole B-news by filing a simple case of slandering.

On the 5th floor, Maisie was taken to meet the chief editor who was busy with other employees. The chief editor has the final decision about each news published by the company. So Maisie thought she would finally succeed.

The editor whispered to the Chief Editor and the expression changed on his face. Maisie read it wrongly. She was asked to wait five minutes mentioning they have to discuss something.

It took ten minutes and Maisie had the patience this time. Because she was plotting against Ruby Jane. She was thinking if she gets a chance to cry in front of the camera, she could make Ruby Jane and the Manoban family submit to her. Then she will again live a wealthy life, keeping them scared.

"Mrs. Kim, Managing director, would like to meet you personally. As this is very crucial information, he would like to handle this more carefully."

Maisie didn't understand the reason behind such great treatment. He was a chief editor, even some powerful families think ten times to have a conversation with him. Why will put himself down and treat Maisie, a cheater of her family so well?

Maisie didn't show her happiness and behaved like a highborn lady. That's how they reached the fourteenth floor. They served her drinks with a few snacks and the managing director rushed over to her.

"I am sorry for making you wait, Madam Kim. I am very pleased to meet you." He was a well-groomed man in his mid-forties.

Maisie shook his hand. Even without makeup, fancy clothes, or styled hair, her confidence was above the roof. "Mr. Watson. We have met before."

He flashed a professional smile, he had already called Milo Wen and the latter asked about the content of the letter. Milo Wen had requested none to speak with the lady except him or his most trusted employees. So excluding the Managing Director, his assistant, and the Chief director none were there in the hall.

He chose to let them know first because if they send the lady away, she will go to another media to create a ruckus. Staying on the good books of Manoban was too crucial.

About Skylar, if Ruby Jane knows their efforts without troubling her, that would be more than enough. They didn't dare to call Mino because he would break the face of Madam Kim. Who doesn't know Mino?

He took the paper, read it, purposefully flashing surprised, shocked expressions. Back in his mind, he was recalling Jaxon Evans and Ruby Jane talking with each other at the birthday banquet. He strongly felt Ruby Jane was a sister or a cousin of Jaxon, yet she was so low profile.

He took pictures of the letters, lying as he needed to prepare explosive headlines with the help of his team. Maisie fell on her face, she started narrating tales making Ruby Jane a villain of it and Maisie as a heroine.
