Chapter 58
Til take care of it Mikayla said, clutching the newspaper.
"After what happened today, this meeting is over!" Jorge ordered. After all, he was the chairman of the company.
It was not only Mikayla's problem but also the company's. He had to handle it fairly. "Mikayla, I'll ask the I'R
department to help you." Jorge said.
Thank you, Mr. Salvatore she replied.
Mikayla had been thinking about how to handle it since she left the board meeting.
Back in the marketing department, Mikayla went straight to her office and closed the door. She wondered. Did
someone do it on purpose, or did the paparazzi happen to nun imo uv
As Mikayla looked out the window at the endless traffic, she began to calm down just then, the phone on the
table rang. It was a number Mikayla was very familiar with.
"What?" Mikayla's tone was harsh. She had grown more impatient with Jaxon
Mikayla's voice made Jason frown slightly. "We're exes, after all. Do you have to do this?" he said.
She retorted, "If you want us to get back together. I'm busy"
"| just heard you're in trouble. Do you need my help? | mean it!" Jaxon said. He realized that he could only
compromise with Mikayla. He had no idea why, but lately, he had been missing her more and more. He had also
dreamed about her many times
He broke up with her not just because of Hugo, but more importantly because he loved her, When Jaxon knew
Mikayla was distancing herself from him, he realized he loved her more than he thought. So he wanted to try to
win her back.
"Are you involved in this? Or is it your dad? Mikayla inquired, increasingly convinced that it might be the case.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"It's me, | guess! If you agree to cback to me. I'll make this news disappear immediately... Jason said. He
knew Mikayla was smart, and he didn't want to hide it from her because she was his target. Mikayla laughed,
realizing how stupid she was. | didn't expect to be so charming! Thank you for your concern," she said and hung
up.
Jaxon threw his phone to the ground and smashed it into pieces. He thought, "You're hanging up onagain!
Since you're so determined, despite my repeated pleas to change your mind, | will make you get down on your
knees and begto be with you, Mikayla
Mikayla was lost in thought as she looked out of the window at the blue sky.
After years of being with Jaxon, he was a man she loved with all her heart. Although she had no intention of
forgiving him for his betrayal, she thought she could treat him as a stranger and not interfere with each other.
But his increasingly extrbehavior disgusted her more and more. When she cto her senses, she took out
her cell phone and made a call. The phone rang twice before being answered
"Hey, Mikayla! How cyou have tto call me?" Juliet asked. She had just gotten up. Judging by the time,
Mikayla should still be at work.
Juliet, | need to borrow your media for something!" Mikayla said. She was straightforward about her intentions.
Juliet's family owned the biggest TV station in Xosa. They also own several well-known media outlets and
celebrities they've trained and developed
themselves.
"Okay! I'll call my dad now," Juliet replied. She did not ask much, as she could tell that Mikayla was anxious.
The call ended. If Mikayla could find a media company to connect with, it would save her a lot of trouble.
Moments later, she called Quinnlyn and Patricia into the office. She showed them the newspaper she had
brought from the board meeting. "You know the whole story. Quinnlyn, borrow two people from PR department.
Then announce that we're having a press conference at 3:00 p.m. Notify security beforehand to keep the place
orderly Mikayla instructed. The pen in Mikayla's hand tapped on the desk, making a crisp sound. "Yes" Quinnlyn
replied and left the office.
"Patricia, only the media | mentioned will be allowed into the press conference this afternoon. The others are
banned. You can write a press release about their questions and my answers. Don't forget to givea copy. You
and the other two from PR department will coordinate with the media" she ordered
Chapter 59
Patricia looked at Mikayla with admiration as she sat in front of her desk, thinking, She has already figured out
what to do in a short tand doesn't act like a newbie in the office at all?
It was basically cheating. Mikayla did not have much tto deal with the tricky media because they could easily
make things worse. The tabloids were only good at making things up,
Mikayla's experiences were from her professors when she was in school and from the notebook Jorge had given
her a few days ago. She thought she might have inherited Jorge's talent for business or been born with sof

When Patricia was about to leave the room, Maxius knocked politely twice before pushing the door open.
"Have
you heard about it?" Mikayla asked. She was not surprised if Maxius knew about the matter, as news traveled
quickly in a company.
"Yeah, | just cfrom Mr. Salvatore's office, Maxius replied, lowering his gaze.
"It's all right. Get back to work! Tve already found a way to deal with it," Mikayla assured.
When Maxius saw Mikayla's smile, his eyes flickered. He finally turned back to his office without saying anything
In the meantime, everything was ready, and the press conference began at exactly three o'clock in the
afternoon. Mikayla sat on the stage while Patricia chose the reporter to ask questions.
Since they had communicated with Mikayla beforehand, they would not go too far with their questions or
embarrass her. Mikayla, on the other hand, was quick to answer.
"As the daughter of the Salvatore family and the team leader of Salvatore Group's marketing department, do you

"If I am accused of having an affair when | accompany a departmental employer who has just returned from
abroad to check out his house, | hope they can take more detailed photos next time. Because such unfounded

added her thoughts instead of giving them the pre-written answer,
Another reporter asked, "Ms. Salvatore, as a team leader, why did you personally go out to dinner with a male
subordinate and check out his house? Why did you not ask the other team members to accompany him?"
Mikayla replied. The employee was a senior at my former school, and I've hired him from overseas. It's not too
much to buy him dinner! It's his first tin this unfamiliar city. In his only friend, so it's only natural that |
brought him there"
A few more related questions were asked, and Mikayla's answers were flawless. The reporters in the audience
nodded in agreement.
A reporter asked, "As the only daughter of Mr. Salvatore, are you going to surprise us by entering the business
world?"
Mikayla chuckled and replied, "I can't answer that right now. Three months later, | hope to show you the so-

Mikayla's perfect answer handled the issue and set the stage for three months later,
The audience began to applaud and cheer.
One reporter exclaimed, "We look forward to your surprise in three months!"
