Excruciating

3 Weeks After

“It has been a big surprise for the insurance business industry to learn about Mr. Magalona’s shocking resignation in PSJ. Mr. Magalona is known for his great contribution in aiding the said corporation return to its heights. Information has it that Atty. San Jose, Mr. Magalona’s girlfriend and President of PSJ, had a serious misunderstanding with him and thus broke up. Many analysts suggests that this incident is not a good sign for PSJ for their clients will perceive the unstable ground of PSJ regarding how personal matters between its bosses affect the corporation. Worse, it seems that the predictions were right since after the said resignation, PSJ is starting to suffer some loses and their finance becomes stagnant. Will PSJ still able to recover now that they lost another ace?” Cesare read the business journal “…(Laughs) way to go Elmo! That was such a heat! You sure are one of a kind kiddo!” He proudly added.

“Sheesh… we haven’t done anything yet Cesare, don’t count your chicks first before they hatch.” Elmo rebutted.

“Oh, I am 100% sure PSJ will fall. No one’s going to help them now. Exodus is still on his sick bed, and I have the best damn swindler in the country! It’s ours to lose!” Cesare grinned.

“Even if you are old, you’re still such an airhead… by the way were you the one who ordered to attack Exodus?” Elmo inquired.

“Oh that one? No, that was merely a coincidence I think… that person has a lot of enemies you know. Anyway, I am still thankful that it happened to him.”

“Good riddance…”

“Exactly!”

“So do you still plan to sit here in your mansion and laugh your heart out? Or do you prefer to do something more productive?”

“(Laughs) Young bloods… truly hasty… well I give you the honors to drew first blood Elmo, I am here just to give you everything you need.”

“Fine… then I’ll take my leave then. I’ll just give you a call when I need your help.”

Cesare grinned.

PSJ Corporation

“Atty. San Jose, Mr. Magalona’s resignation is starting to affect our company already. I knew I shouldn’t trust that person.” Mr. Von Benedict commented.

“Worse, most of our clients were trusting him. Now that he is not with us, who will they trust in our company?” Mr. Einhard added.

“Sooner than we think these clients will withdraw from our services and find another insurance company… Atty. San Jose did you get any word from Brione irons?” Mr. Rodgriguez butted in.

“I know. Everything you said was right. Elmo was a big factor in our company but we can’t just let his resignation affect us. He is not the heart of our company.” Julie answered.

“So you mean that Brione Irons will stay?” Mr. Rodriguez repeated.

“They assured that the stocks I bought from Elmo would remain but the other shares; that they can’t assure.” Julie gloomily said.

“But Julie we should hold on to Brione because they are our assurance in obtaining additional profit…” Mr. Rodriguez insisted

“I know, and Brione also knows it. That is the reason why they are using it against us.” Julie said.

“Julie if we can’t handle our partners anymore we will end up losing them.” Mr. Von Benedict interrupted.

“That is why we should show them that we are still capable even without Elmo.” Julie commanded.
