The CFO - what a load of absolute cobblers. Sounds like they're getting worse. Sheer crab mentality - jealousy.
500 pesos is enough to turn a corrupt filipino employee and get you that stamp if they get arsey.
And anyway, even if they say no, it's irrelevant. Buy a return ticket to Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, etc, fly there, (no CFO stamp needed), then buy a ticket to London and forget the return flight.
The philippines, with its laughbly deluded sense of importance, has still failed to realise that its nonsense laws and restrictions on freedom are completely ignored by the modern world, who couldn't care less if there is a CFO stamp in the passport before allowing you to fly to the UK (visa is all that counts), and who happily ignore the nonsense Philippines instruction banning filipinos from travelling to Iraq.
Once she's out of that country, you're home free. Maybe 1 in 100 immigration guards genuinely wish you well as your filipina travels on to her new life in a less backward country. The rest let you through with gritted teeth, overwhelmed with crab mentality and seething that one of their own has managed to escape her slavery there, and with a foreigner as well!
Get her out of that hellhole and don't look back!!
