"Get me everything you can dig up with this Nickolas Travis." She ordered on the phone, talking to her technical team.

If he had some dirt lying around, her team could find it easily. But for the more juicy ones, she would need someone else to do that for her, another source that had been reliable for some time.

For the rest, she could do the digging herself. She wanted everything she could use against this man. Nobody messed up with her and had gotten away with it.

"What are you still doing here?" Her assistant said when he saw her still busy on the phone. 

He came by her hotel room to get some of her stuff, only to be surprised that she was still inside. He had expected her to be at the palace or at least on her way.

But the only response he received was a signal to keep quiet while she was on the phone. He zipped his mouth shut and started tidying up the room. 

A bit surprised to find that her bed was neat and still in order as if nobody slept on it. Although scenes like this were not new to him, he still wondered who his boss ended up hooking up with last night.

"Aren't you supposed to be in the palace by now, covering the most talked about wedding of the century?" He quickly asked when he noticed her ending the call.

As one of the best reporters in this country, his boss was always given special privileges in the palace. She was the first to get the latest scoop that would happen before it was announced to the public. 

Today, she would have a sit-down interview with the lovely couple. An inclusive to the lives of the Prince of their country and the Princess of New York City. The union of two powerful and wealthy families.

"I just dealt with some asshole, but I am about to leave right now." She realized that she would be late if she did not leave immediately.

She had to vent on someone before she exploded, and her assistant was the best in handling her mood. Since she left the place of the man she had slept with last night, she had been hell-bent on making him pay for humiliating her.

She was not usually bitter when a one-night stand ended badly, but she was never treated that way before. She liked the uncomplicated sex with a stranger because it did not tie her to a relationship.

But it did not mean that the guy had a right to treat her like trash. In her book, no one had a right to be rude, judgemental, and an asshole after getting what he wanted.

"Oh! I knew it. Something happened last night." He giggled excitedly, knowing that it would be something intriguing and fun.

Whenever his boss went on a trip, she always winded up with a man on her bed. Or, in this case, she was on his bed. But he had never seen her this riled up.

"It is far from what you are thinking." She contradicted him, seeing that he was beginning to formulate his own ideas. "Do you want to ride with me? I will tell you all the details."

She grabbed her bag and put her phone inside, taking her keys out in the process. Then, she walked towards the door. She had to hurry. She did not want the royal family to wait for her.

Her assistant quickly took the things she might need for today with him and hurried after his boss. She could not wait to be inside the car and hear all about her sexcapade or the disaster afterward.

"That man was a total shithead." He exclaimed, adding a few more profanities with his description of him. "But he is indeed a devil in an angel's disguise." He whispered.

He could not help but admire his angelic face and superb body structure. If he was his boss, he would also fall for the guy's charms. 

But his boss was also correct. No woman deserved to be disrespected in such a manner, not even him, he supposed. If the same thing happened to him.

Not even if the man had the looks of a god, wealth, and all the power in the world. He still did not have the right to step in anyone's shoes.

"Anyway, I am taking him as my personal mission. A special project. I will make sure he has not seen the last of me yet." She told her assistant as she continued to drive to their destination.

She was not doing this only for herself, but for all the women he had done wrong. She could bet she was not the only one who suffered under his atrocious behavior.

She believed if she searched in the right direction, his stench would lead her to the largest landfill of his trashes. Then, it would be a field day for her and her colleagues.

"Count me in." He also would like to join in this personal vendetta of his boss. "But before we focus on that, let us first discuss your latest story."

Although he could already see the wheels in her head turning about this new personal assignment she was thinking about. There were pressing issues that needed to be addressed.

"Are the crew set up already on the site?" She suddenly shifted back to her job, putting aside her other task for a later discussion. 

She had to focus her attention on her job first, allowing the royal couple to showcase their royal affair to the world. As of now, this was the biggest news of the season.

A true-to-life love story of a modern-day prince and princess. A royal wedding, ending up in a happy ever after. A story that the world would eat up in the palm of her hands.

"They are already waiting for you." He confirmed, proud of his skills in handling all her needs. 

He knew that this story would once again put his boss at the top of the leader chart in broadcasting. She might not be well known worldwide, but this could be her stepping stone in the international market.

"Good, but while I am doing my interview, keep a lookout for this man. I have a feeling that he would be appearing in the scene." She instructed, indicating the picture on the screen.

She already suspected that a man like him would find an opportunity to be on the guest lists, especially if he was the ex-fiance of the bride.

After making a quick search on the web, she did find a handful of articles about his business and failed relationship with the bride. A very intriguing story that she could not wait to get her hands on.

"He will not be hard to spot if he decides to grace us with his presence. He had a way of standing out in a crowd." Her assistant commented, looking again at his facial features.

He could see that it would be an exciting change in their pace. It had been a while since his boss had been passionate about a story.. He would like to see where this treasure hunt would lead them to.
