Standing like nothing had happened, I became very hungry but the truth was that I was not allowed to move away from my position until I was instructed to do so. I knew I would have to face so many challenges are the end. The people we were fighting had power but we're weak. I thought about when next I would see Mia Jane. But regardless of what happened, I did not get to see her.
Hart, on the other hand was preparing for a book program to be held in the company. That was my first time I did not get to attend it. Even though I was appointed as a spy, he should had at least try all his possible best to invite me. To me, it looked like the whole of L'art book company had abandoned me. But, what could I do? I had to make money to feed myself and my family. Despite the occasion, I was still a little bit excited. L'art book company would pay me my normal monthly salary and the Miami book company would pay me for my service. It looked like I was working for two companies. But whatever happened , I decided to focus on what I was doing.
"You have come. " We all bowed to greet a particular man whose facial appearance and body appearance showed that he was in his seventies. Then, some board of directors came to greet them.
"Bienvenido" They greeted in Spanish.
"Es un honor conocerte. " He replied. Even though I didn't understand Spanish, I knew that 'bienvenido' means welcome. It turned out the man happened to be Spanish. That made my suspicions increase. There must had been indeed someone hiding who really owned that company. If not, how would Mia Jane who didn't have up to a million dollars in her account, know so many rich people. There might had been someone who happened to be the sole of that company.
After several research , the next day, I took a leave and went to L'art book company. Everyone was busy that they didn't notice my presence. I didn't bother to disturb them and went straight to Hart's office.
"Good day sir. " I greeted with so many things running in my mind.
"Secretary Mesa, it is nice to see you here. Are you on a shift?" He asked showing emotions of happiness.
"Yes sir. Actually, I came here to give you some information. " I said.
"What is it?" Hart asked looking very concerned.
"For the past few days that I've been in that company, Mia Jane didn't show up. But instead, some people began to come everyday. Yesterday, it was an author who worth billions of dollars. Today, a Spanish man came instead. The twist is that they all came with the same car. The letter F was written on the cars. I did not seem to understand the woke matter till I made some research. That letter means Fazio, an Italian name. I looked at most of the directors' cars and noticed that it was written in all of it. Till now, I have not found who Fazio is. But, I think the whole matter is confusing. " I explained.
"Fazio? That is so much confusing. Or, is it that they so called Fazio is the sole of Miami book company?" He asked.
"That is what I was thinking. Fazio is a male name. So, there is ninety nine percent chance that that person is masculine. But, is it that the person owns Miami book company?"
"Mr Mike said their real owner is dead, what if the reverse is the case. If their real owner is dead, then Mia Jane's salary must have been paid by that Fazio. So, I don't think anything of such could happen. Fazio might be the real owner. Firstly, let's find Fazio. " He concluded.
"Since he is an Italian, I think he should be in Italy. "
" Then, let us visit Italy. We must do all our possible best to find whoever he is. " He said.
"What? Italy? Sir, I still have some work to do over there. I still have to find who some people are. And again, we are not even sure he is in Italy. It is just an assumption. " I replied.
"You are my secretary after all. I cannot go myself. You have go follow me. There is no way he would be in Korea, that is what I am sure of. If he is not in Italy, we will travel to all the country in the world to look for him." He said. At this point, I could not do anything to stop him. I had to agree to the whole matter.
"Yes sir. "

I began a thorough search about Fazio. Regardless the situation, I wanted to meet him and question him about the whole matter. "This year is just not my year. I cannot believe I have to stress my self this much because of one useless book company. I have always been paid three hundred thousand dollars per month, but I have to clear most of the debts my family had. Apart from that, I will pay for tax, electricity, food, clothing, rent, transportation and several more. At last, I will be left with less than twenty thousand dollars. My life is a mess!" I said to myself as I laid on the bed looking at the ceiling like it was going to give me a better idea. Regardless of the circumstances, I believed that no one's life was worse than mine. Even the twenty thousand dollars will not be enough for me for a month. I had to save five thousand dollars per month hoping that one day I would use it. But, in the end, I kept fighting against a book company. I had to act like a spy, gather information and do things not related to my field of study.
"I should not have studied counseling. What is the usefulness?" I used to think so. But, I knrw myself that things would work out no matter what would have happened. I kept telling that to Hart and reassuring myself that I would be fine. If you have the chance, tell yourself that things would work out and things would really work out as long as you put that in mind no matter the circumstance. Fighting against the Miami book company silently taught me something. The fact that everyone had at least someone to fight and we all want to fight them without any other reason than the fact that we want to fight.
