President West

Isabella sat on the hospital bed with her palm folded, as she tried to remain calm.

"You seem nervous, Should I open the curtains?" Lizzy who was by the side asked.

"She is fine, There is no need to worry about her" Sebastian who was reading the newspaper replied.

"Sometimes I wonder what's your job is? Shouldn't you reject him?! How can I see him this morning, Why would he suddenly want to come this morning?!"

"Is the first time seeing you so nervous, Is obvious that you have seen him before " Sebastian muttered.

"I walked past him then. I hope he doesn't hold a grudge against me!"

"You had the whole of last night to Prepare. And it's not like is your fault that you that you don't remember what he looks like!"

"Can you please not remind me about that!" Isabella glared at him.

"Fine!"

Just as they were talking, Someone knocked on the door as Sebastian stood up and went on to open the door.

"President West" Sebastian called as a man in suit walked into the ward.

Isabella cocked her hesd to make out his face, "He is very handsome!" Lizzy whispered in her ear.

"He is not an old man?" Isabella asked not realizing how loud her voice is.

"I don't know what Miss Isabella might have heard but I'm not an old man" A magnetic and enticing voice sounded in the room.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect for it to be so loud" She muttered.

President West walked in fully and sat on a seat next to her bed, "Is nothing. People tend to have such prejudice against me" He smiled slightly.

"President, I don't know why you decided to visit today?" Sebastian asked helping Isabella out of the awkward situation.

"Of course. To see my money making machine"

"What?!"

He chuckled slightly and waved his hand "Is a joke you don't have to take it seriously. Is just that you are the one that makes the most profit in the company and of course I have to care about you"

"Thank you for your care. As you can see, I'm fine" Isabella replied without looking at his face.

"I can see that. Your Manager took care of everything, so of course I can see how much he puts in your public image"

"Of course I'm very grateful" Isabella nodded awkwardly, while looking at Sebastian for help.

"Looking at you, Seems like you have not read the news this morning." Julian West looked at the faces coldly.

"The news? No. But if it's about what happened with Lizzy and Glean last night then it's nothing for you to worry about." Isabella responded.

"Then I guess you haven't seen the news this morning. The Police station released a public statement!" He announced.

"What?!" Sebastian exclaimed and pulled out his phone immediately.

Only to see that he has received more than a 100 missed calls.

Unfortunately, he didn't notice since his phone was on silent.

Seeing that most of them where from a media company, he went on to browse, and there was Isabella's name and the station lying at the No 1 of the search engine.

He clicked on it, after a few minutes of reading it he threw his phone on the floor with anger, "That annoying Bastard!" He yelled as Lizzy who was also checking her phone hurriedly picked the phone that has part of it's screen smashed.

"About the death of Miss Gelly, We promptly request for the cooperation of Miss Isabella's team, who has refused to cooperate.

Please heed to these or else he will have no other choice but to sue you for obstruction of justice" Isabella read out the news without any change in her expression.

"You don't seem surprised?" Mr. West asked her.

"Of course I'm very surprised. But I trust the PR will take care of this. After all I'm the best money making machine for the company" She smiled as Mr. West chuckled slightly.

"I'm grateful that I let the company push your potential forward. Don't worry about the post online, We will take care of it" Mr. West assured her.

"How?" Bella still skeptical of this CEO that she has hardly had any encounter with.

"Let them in" He ordered as the door opened and several doctors and nurses came in with their equipment.

"What's the meaning of this?" Sebastian asked.

"Since she is in a critical condition. We have to make it real. The detective and the Reporters will be here in less than an hour. So you can keep your questions aside and try to cooperate first." He glanced at Sebastian who made way for the doctors.

Soon before Isabella could administer what was happening, Her leg was bandaged heavily and hung high.

Her head and her hands didn't escape too. Then a fake drip was administered. And the machine was turned on

After everything was over, the Doctors and Nurses bowed and walked out.

"What's the meaning of this?!" Isabella muffled voice came from the gauze that wrapped her face.

"You just have to close your eyes and act. They can't find out that you are faking."

"What do you plan to gain with this?!" Lizzy who was standing aside asked.

"This is to stop the paparazzi and reporters from coming to the hospital. Since they know nothing about your condition, they will continue sneaking around.

Then what happens if one of them capture you perfectly fine.

So, we use this opportunity and stop them from coming. Because they will sympathize and try their best not to slow your recovery." He explained.

"It sounds great! But why are the police coming?" Sebastian touched his jaw and asked

"Insider information told me they are coming to take you and Lizzy in for questioning. If the reporters come with them, not only will they take picture of this scene and of them taking you away.

In that way, The public will stop criticizing and blaming you. Instead they will pity her and then criticize the police! Perfect isn't it?" He clapped his hand.

While outside the hospital, Several cars were lined up. and several reporters held their cameras under the hot sun and waited

~~"Hey! You are here too?!" The reporter asked the person from an opposite media, through the car window

~~"The Police are coming to take her manager and assistant in for questioning. Maybe this is an opportunity to know how she is." The other person replied.

~~"Why are the police not here yet?!" Those standing wiped off the sweat and asked.

Soon, just as they expected. A police van drove into the premises.

Seel looked around, not knowing where to pack the car, "For some reason, this place seems really crowded than the last time."

"Over there. That's the reason" Nelly pointed at the Reporters.

"Huh? Why are they here today?! Oh I guess they are looking for a chance to ask about her condition.

She is my goddess and I also want to know about her condition" Seel muttered.

"Just park at the middle, we will be leaving immediately!" Nelly instructed as Seel nodded and drove to the middle.

Seeing them, The Reporters swarmed them hurriedly the moment the car was opened.

~~"Lieutenant Nelly, Are you really going to take them in for questioning?!"

~~"Do you think they refused to cooperate because they are suspects?!"

"Is strange. They shouldn't be interested in us!" Seel muttered and almost felt the microphone trying to blind him.

"Let's go in" Nelly turned to Seel as they made their way out of the crowd.
