Chapter 289: Chapter 289 - Skill At Its Work
"HAha haha… No no, It isn\'t. I don\'t mean that all the accusations that I made against you are completely baseless but… for now I would need to conduct more research and see whether all are truly real or not." Ramiel said.
"And if some were was…"
"Then you can call me anytime and I will gladly come over here to discuss about them with you." William said.
"Fannntastic" Ramiel said and looked towards the camera, "Well there you got it folks, Mr. Trust. Now it\'s time to say farewell to you all but before that I would like for you to pray for the late Mr. Trust to your respective gods and also for the kingdoms of Escana.
Thank you for listening, This is me, Ramiel Cang, METRO Light News."
The TV screen changed to an ad as the news ended. Carl kept looking at the screen while having a suspicious frown on his face as he said, "You bought them."
"Of Course, we did." Delmar gave a creepy smile, "Why else would a news station famed for hating most families and us as well, suddenly turn so sweet on us."
"Still it was still a shock to me when I saw, Ramiel acting like nothing had happened between us, smiled and talked like that… truly a good actor… don\'t you think?" Delmar asked looking towards Carl.
"How much did you give him?" Carl asked.
"What?" Delmar asked confused.
"How much did you give them to act like that?" Carl asked again.
"Well let\'s just say… a little more than average." Delmar smiled as he didn\'t say anymore.
...…..
Back in METRO Light News station.
The camera shut off as the recording also turned off and William got off the chair and to the dressing room where the people there helped him unequip all the audio and other equipment\'s there was.
They then turned to his face and started to apply makeup on it as he frowned and asked, "Hey! What are you doing?"
The girl who was doing his makeup said, "Oh! I\'m sorry for not telling you before but we need to do your makeup before you leave. There may be some fans who would be in front of the station after watching the news and if you were to get out without any makeup then… Not like I am saying that you need any… you look godly." She said with a twinkle in her eyes.
William saw that but didn\'t care enough to address it as he said, "Alright do it but don\'t try to make it obvious… I don\'t do such things."
"Of course sir… why would you when you have such a great face."
"…"
Coming out of the dressing room, William took a breath as the perfumes and the smell of other beauty products had overwhelmed him.
He was never a fan of makeup and beauty products and even in his past life he had didn\'t like it when his sisters would spend so much money on useless products such as this.
But he didn\'t mind when it came to other women using them… specially when it came to the part of them using only light makeups that would hide some of their faults and view most of their natural face.
"Nauseatic, right?"
William looked to his left to see Ramiel standing out of his own dressing room with a smile on his face.
"Yeah, it is. Never thought perfumes could have so many varieties… when all of them have the same smell."
Ramiel nodded as he laughed a bit, "Yeah yeah… I too once felt nausea whenever I had to finish up with this dreadful thing but after so many years… I can see that it is the most important factor in my life."
William nodded understanding what he really meant.
"Was it your first interview?"
"Was it that noticeable?" William asked with a nervous smile.
"Not really no. I was just asking out of pure curiosity but you did a good work. Couldn\'t really tell whether it was your first time or your 100th."
William smiled and said, "You did a nice job out there too, really made me feel like I was being interrogated by you."
"Talk about acting foolish," Ramiel said, "No matter how many times I asked you a unsettiling question, you would always come it with a counter strike and make it into a profitable one."
"Well can you blame me for doing that, I am now the owner of a flourishing business." William said, "And should you really be saying that to me when you yourself was trying to make your ratings go high."
"And high it did. I am sure that it would be quite high after today." Ramiel said before his eyes turned crescent. "You shouldn\'t say this too considering you are the one that will get the most benefit out of this, boss."
William smiled as he understood that Ramiel was talking about the other thing. The thing about him buying off the METRO Light News completely and becoming the sole owner of it.
It\'s also the reason why Ramiel was so friendly with him. It was partly an act and most of it were real. Not because Ramiel was a good man at heart, no. It was because of the contract they signed.

This skill had finally shown its true power to him. William had bought the whole METRO Light News Station with a total amount of 21 Billion Dollars. Because it was a one-time contract and that it would finish immediately after signing, the influence too was huge.
He remembered when he had first contracted Ramiel, the man was too arrogant and talked way too much. But after he had finished signing the contract and had taken a moment in the joint, the man\'s temperament changed completely and now it felt like they were joyful friends who never bickered.
"So what is it?"
William broke from his thoughts as he looked at Ramiel and asked, "What did you say again?"
"I said, what do you want me to call you now? Boss or Young Master?" Ramiel said with a teasing tone.
William smiled and shook his head as he said, "Neither, call me William."
"Well then William, I can suppose this is the start of a great relationship then?"
"Yeah you can. I don\'t want you to make good stuff about me always but… would appreciate it sometimes."
"You are the boss, I only do what you say…" Ramiel then furrowed his brows, "Can you ask you a personal question?"
"Shoot"
"Did your father really die from that accident?... not that I am doubting you… it\'s just quiet a big thing to understand."
William nodded, giving a sad act, "He did. We tried to save him… but it was just his time." He ended with a sigh.
"Well Gods bless him… I really wanted to meet him."
"Yeah, many others did too."
