Noah exited the ward and as he pa.s.sed the guards who had been stationed there to control the group of reporters from disturbing the patients or making noise, he gave away a secret signal to one of the guards there with his eyes. That guard was tall and had bulky muscle. His skin was tan. Apparently, before he came to North West Land, he had a.s.signed Oscar to stand by there and disguised as the guard and bribed the other guards to let Noah in when he said that he was Mia Wilson"s friend. Obviously, other reporters had tried this trick by buying them our or pretending as one of Mia"s acquaintances but his trick worked well because he had put Oscar in place to ensure his plan sailed smoothly.Noah then went to Casey and Zavier who were waiting at the lobby for his good news with his mourning face.
"I"m sorry, I couldn"t help both of you. She"s in a bad state. She"s kind of traumatised of what happened this morning. So she doesn"t want to see anyone. Maybe you can pa.s.s your message to me and I"ll let her know. Probably by then, Mia has changed her mind."
"If so, then we"re not going to bother her. Just give our contact to her and let her know we always welcome her at our office. We wish that we could help to gain justice if this incident is truly the O"Ryan"s doing." said Casey while pa.s.sing her contact card to Noah which he accepted it with a nod.
"Sure! Then how about the damage to your car? I"m really sorry about that."
"Ermm... about the damage, give me your contact and I"ll send the repair bill once the car is repaired."
Noah then exchanged his number and sent both of them to the parking lot. Soon after Casey and Zavier left, a car stopped in front of Noah and the driver came out from the car, leaving the engine on. It was Oscar.
"Give this card to her. For now, your job is to keep her safe. O"Ryan may send people to harm her this time."
Casey"s contact card was pa.s.sed to Oscar before Noah sat on the driver"s seat and took off.
Noah was one step nearer to his goal as he managed to accomplish today"s mission. Although Mia hadn"t given him the reply, Noah believed that sometime later, she would come to him to agree with the deal. While for Casey"s case, he just needed to approach her casually for this task and in the future, he would have many chances to get her to join his party as one of the Council Committee members.
Noah drove back to Mansion West Wing in Central West Land with a satisfied expression. Now, in his mind, he started to strategise his move on his second target, Martin Douglas. Winter Academy would be holding a talk series on the topic of Government Policies: Good or Bad and Mr Douglas was invited as one of the speakers. This was a great stepping stone for Noah to appear in the public officially as the talk would be broadcasted live. This talk was intended to promote positive rapport for the current government party by faking a platform to criticise the policies that had been made and implemented by the government. In life, there was nothing perfectly good or too bad and to achieve a balance between these two sides would be considered as too ambitious.

It was an open secret that the whole talk and the media were bought to show only the good things. Obviously, it was a risky move to streaming the talk live as everything would appear real but here was the trick. The questions are pre-arranged and the speakers would choose certain individuals that are paid to ask the questions. Any disturbance would be considered as an unprofessional protest and those who created scenes would be detained.
Noah had two choices. One, he silently complied with the acting or second, he led the protest. Either of these two, he would be able to make an impression, however, it wasn"t enough to get Mr Douglas seriously listen to his words. Probably Mr Douglas would see him as a small fly that tried to catch his attention. Surely he had to use dirty methods to buy Mr Douglas"s time but what kind of trick he should use against this junior of O"Ryan?
Among all the politicians, Mr Douglas was one of those that had been so discreet about his personal life and he had no controversy that tarnished his reputation. He was clean in all aspects. However, the more you being secretive about something, the more guilty secrets you held and to err is only human. Politicians were bound to be related to dirty gossips or scandals. It was just a matter how smart you could hide your actions and cover up your tracks.
Mr Douglas had two sons and one daughter. The eldest son followed the father"s career pathways while the second son was a businessman. The only daughter started her career in the modelling industry but then became an actress. Politics, business and entertainment, all these three were the centre of controversy but if you could survive without being involved in gossip, you were like an angel fell from the sky and not all gossip was baseless. If got no wind around, how could the leaves on the trees sway?
