Chapter 33 - Agenda of the Urgent Meeting

I
Atty. Ninia looked at him with a puzzled look. “I don’t know. I thought you had a communication already. Anyway, would you want to see her first and greet her outside before we start our meeting?”
“Nope, let us start. She can actually wait. This matter is urgent.” Atty. Wilgreg said while opening a brown envelope on the table, in front of him. Atty. Ninia nodded and smiled at him.
“Atty. Ferrer, here are some pictures based on the CCTV footage of one of the casinos in Manila. You can see there that Marco Raguya is a constant customer. Marco Raguya is a gambler and he used the company’s money for gambling. Until now, he cannot submit any explanation as to where that millions of money that he cashes advanced for alleged projects really did go. He cannot even present any project related to that.” Atty. Wilgreg started laying down the purpose of the urgent meeting. His expression was quite serious.
“Where did you get these pictures?” Atty. Ninia asked while checking the pictures one by one.
“I asked my friend at the NBI to investigate Marco's case and they followed Marco for several days. Then they asked some staff in the casino and requested for the CCTV footage of past days.”
“Atty. Wilgreg, it is imperative to file immediately the Estafa case and issue to Marco a Notice of Suspension for one month first while his case is under investigation. I know both of you knows that.” Atty. Ferrer said while looking into the photos handed to him by Atty. Wilgreg.
Both Atty. Wilgreg and Atty. Ninia nodded."Yes Atty. Ferrer," they almost replied simultaneously.
“Ninia, we need to prepare all the pieces of evidence we have against Marco. Please coordinate with our Office Legal Team.” Atty. Wilgreg looked at Atty. Ninia, and gently tapped her hand on the table near him.
“That is done already. We will just start preparing the Complaint-Affidavit and the signatory can either be you or Mr. Damian Lincuja.” Atty. Ninia said seriously. She could not comprehend why Marco Raguya would cheat on Mr. Damian Lincuja, who treated him like a real son. He even had a high salary and special privileges in the company.
Upon hearing the name of his father, Atty. Wilgreg suddenly remembered his other reason why he required Atty. Ferrer to be present in this urgent meeting. “Speaking of my father, I am planning to visit him this weekend Atty. Ferrer, to also discuss to him this matter. Mom would not want to come as she has a prior engagement already. I and Ninia here will go there. We will leave here by Friday evening through a private jet so that no one will know.”
“That would be great Wilgreg, Damian will be much happy to receive you in his new place now. You will be surprised by how beautiful and relaxing the place is. It is good Atty. Ninia that you can accompany Atty. Wilgreg.” Atty. Ferrer exclaimed with enthusiasm in his voice. He knows how happy Damian would be, once he told him about his son’s visit.
“Today is Wednesday, so we still have two days to prepare Babe.” Atty. Wilgreg said while smilingly looking at Atty. Ninia, who automatically blushed and felt embarrassed.
Atty. Ferrer just looked at them with amusement plastered on his face.
II
After they finished their urgent meeting, Wilgreg through Atty. Ninia’s reminder got out of the conference room and greeted Atty. Lulu outside.
“Hey, Lulu, what’s up? Sorry, I was busy the whole afternoon.” He said while approaching her.
Atty. Lulu immediately stood up and almost ran towards Atty. Wilgreg.
“Hey Will, how are you, dude? I missed you!” she said while wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him on his right cheek.
Rose who was just in front watching was so surprised by the actions of Atty. Lulu. She immediately turned her gaze to Atty. Ninia, who together with Atty. Ferrer has been watching Atty. Lulu too.
Atty. Ninia controlled herself not to furrow when she saw what Atty. Lulu did. She kept calm and made her expression unreadable.
“Atty. Ninia, are you okay there?” Atty. Ferrer who is beside her standing asked in a very soft voice.
Atty. Ninia just nodded while giving Atty. Ferrer a short smile.
Atty. Wilgreg on one hand was also shocked when Atty. Lulu suddenly wrapped her arms on his neck and kissed him on his right cheek. He felt awkward, knowing that Atty. Ninia is just watching nearby.
“Err, Lulu, let us have dinner with Atty. Ninia and Atty. Ferrer, since I am also so hungry now.” Simply, Atty. Wilgreg removed Atty. Lulu’s hands from his neck and excused himself for a while, stating that he will just get his things in his office.
Atty. Lulu followed Wilgreg with an excited look and she cannot hide the sparkles she has in her eyes.
All of those never left unnoticed by the very keen, observant eyes of Atty. Ninia.
Atty. Ferrer made a fake cough and invited Atty. Ninia to have a seat first while waiting for Atty. Wilgreg.
While Atty. Lulu, without even looking at Atty. Ninia, continued standing, still eyes following the direction where Atty. Wilgreg went to.
Rose, the Executive Assistant of Atty. Wilgreg, made a short, soft sigh while looking at Atty. Lulu with a smirk. In her mind, she is guessing that this Atty. Lulu, will be bringing typhoon to the young, blossoming love affair of her boss and Atty. Ninia.
