President Wilson sighed in disappointment when he heard Sheyan's explanation. He looked as if he had grown several decades older in an instant.

Compared to his predecessors President Bush Sr. and Jr., President Clinton, and Watergate President Nixon, Wilson really seemed like a saint. Zi pulled Sally, the president's secretary, aside and spoke to her. Before long, Sally had fetched some hot water and started getting busy at the cookery at the back.
