The next morning.
The front pages of major media outlets were dominated by a piece of gossip.
In bold, Linton City's biggest and most eligible bachelor, Young Master Lawrence, Baron Lawrence, was reported to have appeared at the Orchid Club last night, spending the evening with a female celebrity.
Low pressure seemed to be permeating the entire President's office. Everyone wished they could dig a hole in the ground to bury themselves, lest they be swept up in the torrent of anger.
"President Lawrence, we've found what you asked us to investigate. The photos from last night were taken by a paparazzi. He confessed that he received a call from a female celebrity telling him to stake out the Orchid Club, claiming there would be a big scoop. So he went there to stake it out and snapped pictures of you. Knowing that news about you wouldn't make it to print media, he sold the photos to an internet portal site."
