Debra had returned in a hurry, unaware of the rumors.
Michael glanced at Ben and said, “Debra just got back. Let her settle in and get familiar with recent business. We’ll handle everything else later.”
Ben nodded. “Madam, there are too many eyes around here. Let’s head upstairs first.”
Debra noticed the nervous glances from the employees. Without saying anything, she followed Michael and Ben up to the office.
The moment Debra stepped inside, her eyes landed on the massive pile of paperwork. stacked on her desk.
She gasped, “Geeze! I’m sorry for putting you into this, Michael.”
Michael brushed it off, “No big deal, just a few simple contracts. All I had to do was sign.
While he busied himself organizing the files, Debra turned to Ben. “Why are people avoiding me? What’s going on?”

Even young people, who typically avoided newspapers, were hooked, and it became a trending sensation in no time.
Michael saw her smile. “You’ve been slandered, and you’re happy about it?”
“Why wouldn’t I?” Debra shrugged. “Even the biggest new agency here couldn’t boost their sales like New Age has. I bet someone clever is pulling the strings behind the scenes.”
Michael and Ben exchanged confused glances. Any clever person would pick something other than a newspaper to make money.
Debra handed the paper to Michael and said, “I want to meet its owner. Set it up for me.”
