Chapter one : April 11th, Monday, 8:45am

"Ms. Montego, Mr.Sawyer wants to see you in his office immediately" Sarah said peaking her head around the cubicle wall. Malia sighed , stretching her stubby legs before standing up.

"Do you know what for" She asked walking next to the slim woman. Sarah was a blue eyed , blonde hair that was straight to the bone woman. She was literally the beauty standard for female journalist. Malia sighed as the two women walked side and side struggling to figure out why such a beautiful , charismatic women like Sarah decided to be a production manager when clearly with a smile like hers she belonged on the america's next top model.

"He didn't say much but to come and get you. He doesn't seem angry though so, maybe it's good news"She was a soft spoken woman, some may even say posh with the way she carried herself. Malia nodded shaking off the thoughts and pulling herself back into reality. As she walked her black 4-inch heels that she had gotten in the clearance aisle in saks fifth clanked on the marble floor. She neverously made her way up to Mr.sawyers office.Sarah noticed the dread on Malia's face and smiled at the young women , letting her know she'd be just beyond the doors as always if she was to need anything. Malia braced herself , thanking Sarah before entering Mr.Sawyers office.

"Ah Ms.Montego , just the person i wanted to see" Sawyer said greeting Malia. He was a averaged sized man , about 5'10 , olive skin ,a shaggy haircut and the fashion sense of a confused teenage jock. Sawyer was typically a nice man though , good to his staff , easygoing however he always seemed to come down hard on Malia. She had been working there for about a year and a half and was the only journalist who hadn't even been considered to do a special.

"What can i do for you Mr.Sawyer" Malia said standing awkwardly by the door. The last time she was in his office he'd almost fired her for a printing mishap with one of her articles even though it wasn't her fault.

"Please sit down, i have some exciting news" Malia sat across from the older man , giving him a pointed looked that motioned for him to go on.

"We have a upcoming day-time special about one of the richest Ceo shadow moguls in New York City" Before Malia could react he continued.

"I think you'd be perfect for lead interviewer on this special" Malia could barely stay still in her seat. She was shocked , her first very own day-time special. She genuinely believed the day would never come.

"OF COURSE" She shouted , covering her mouth immediately after and correcting herself.

"I mean of course Mr.Sawyer, thank you for the opportunity" He smiled before pulling a file out of his file cabinet and sliding a file labeled H.I across his desk to her.

"Here's everything you need to know , and your schedule for the upcoming week. Please go back to your desk and review the file , if you need anything just let sarah know and i'll be right down to help" She thanked him again , taking the file. He stopped her before she could fully exit.

"I expect great things from you Ms.Montego don't let me down" She nodded waving, before letting herself out.

Malia had spent most of her lunch break reviewing the file and searching up any intimate details she could find about Mr.Harlen Ivory. He was practically nonexistent but with a net worth of 1 billion dollars you'd think you'd be able to find more about him on the internet. His age was unknown , relationship status and only one image of him popped up on google search. She sighed running her hands down her face, in the file Sawyer had given her it said he was a private man with a cold intimidating figure. She stopped for a moment wondering to herself had Sawyer done this to her on purpose ? Her first day-time special and their isn't even as much as a picture of the guy on google. She was lucky that one was even included in the file Sawyer had given her. This picture was way clearer than the one on google, he was a white man , looked roughly 5'11 , with a low cut and chiseled face. You could practically see his six pack begging to get out of his button up shirt as he glared at the camera. Just the aurora she got from the picture sent chills down her spine.

"Stop looking so dull Malia" Sarah said coming around the corner of the cubicle wall.

"How'd you guess" Malia said looking up from the file.

"The whole floor feels of your sulking"

"Besides Sawyer wouldn't have given you this task if he thought you couldn't handle it" She smiled pulling up a chair next to malia.

"I know Sarah but this is my first big special and i just wanna be prepared and in control" She said tossing the file on her desk.

"You can't even find as much as his current permanent home" Malia's stomach began to growl as Sarah laughed.

"Come on hungry butt , let's go get you some food and we can discuss more than"

April 11th, Monday, 1:27 pm

After a delicious lunch with Sarah, Malia was more confident with how she'd approach this interview. Sarah was inspirational to say the least, she was a confident women , always knew what she wanted and was willing to go the extra mile to get it. It was like a breath of fresh air to Malia , being that she was the exact opposite , she loved that Sarah knew exactly what to say to bring her out her funk and get her motivated. 30 questions in total would be asked throughout the 2 part series. In the file notes it stated "Mr.Ivory is a very busy man so be weary of the questions you ask as he may not give you the opportunity to ask another one" Sarah was gracious enough to email Malia a list of questions she could ask him to ease her nerves. She came up with some questions of her own as well and by the time she layed in bed that night she was bit more peaceful. She was set to meet him at the futmental hotel at 6:45am sharp tomorrow. Her thoughts drifted to the photo she had seen of him earlier. He was a good looking man to say the least , his eyes looked as if he had died inside though. She tossed and turned for awhile with the photo at the back of her mind as sleep ultimately consumed her.
