Chapter 89 - Jackson Company. (Past One)
PAST!
Valentina got out of the car stepping in front of the Jackson\'s companies. This is the guest ever time, she stepped in front of the Jackson Companies. Tears rolled in her eyes but she controlled because none of her parents ever bought her here ever... This is the first time, Valentina is going to step inside their companies to make the biggest decisions of their companies ever... Which can decide the future now. She doesn\'t at all ahve any idea what she gonna do inside the office. Heck, she was not at all sure that what she is going to talk about inside with the directors. Everything will decide today... Jackson\'s companies... Her father\'s prestige and his hard work of years are in her hands right now... It\'s scaring her for sure but she needs to do this... Anyway! This is the time she should prove to herself that she is capable of doing something and making her proud of her father. This is the time where the Jackson Companies future will be decided.
Everything is totally new for Valentina because she doesn\'t at have any idea who is who and what to talk with someone. There is no one to help her right now... She is all alone. She needs to fight alone now... Neither her mom can do anything right now... She is all alone in this and she knows that she will forever will be alone in this business.
Valentina looked around her and saw many employees starting to stare at her and Anthony PA walked towards her and gave a smile to her.
"Hello, Ms. Jackson." Anthony\'s PA, Mari said with a polite smile and Valentina looked up at her as she called Valentina, Ms. Jackson for the first time.
No one ever called her Ms. Jackson until now and she is a little scared to call herself Ms. Jackson.
Neither she ever tried calling herself Ms. Jackson and so this is making her heart beat fast.
"Valentina." Amelia\'s voice made her come out of her thoughts and Valentina turned her face and looked at Amelia.
"Let\'s go inside..." Amelia said and Valentina nodded her head in yes.
"This way, Ms. And Mrs. Jackson." Mari said and Valentina nodded her head in yes.
"The meeting with the directors is going to start in an hour. So, until then, do you want to look around?" Mari asked Valentina as they three walked inside the lobby. Valentina lost in looking around the company. She felt her heart full seeing the company. She stopped in her midway making Mari and Amelia frown and they stopped in their midway. Valentina closed her eyes and breathed in the smell.
"This is it! You can do this Valentina." Valentine said to herself grabbing the attention around her. Amelia shook her head at Valentina as she got embarrassed with her seeing the employees stare at her that make her feel ashamed of Valentina.
"Valentina." Amelia called Valentina making her open her eyes and Amelia looked at her with a nervous face as Valentina looked at her sternly.
"Let\'s go." Valentina said with a stern voice making Amelia and Mari look at her in shock.
"Let\'s go!" Valentina said again with a stern face and voice as she walked ahead and Mari followers her as a lost puppy. Amelia blinked her eyes seeing Valentina suddenly changing her attitude and voice. She took a deep breath and followed Valentina and Mari.
The girl women walked inside the Elevator and just then Mari was about to make Valentina remember that there is still an hour more to start the meeting but Valentina cut off Mari in mid-sentence.
"I will have a lot of time to look at my company later... But first, show me Mr. Jackson\'s office to me." Valentina said sternly and Mari nodded her head.
"And..." Valentina said as she turned around towards her.
"I want words... Not nodding your head... Talk with words! Understand?" Valentina asked sternly.
"Yes, Ms. Jackson." Mari answered and Valentina turned away from her. The elevator made the sound as Elevator reached the floor. They all walked out of the Elevator.
"This way, Ms. Jackson." Mari said and Valentina nodded her head. Amelia followed Valentina back as she and Mari walked ahead of her.
Amelia\'s heart was beating so fast because she is sure that Valentina doesn\'t at all have any idea about this company but still she with dare and risk she said that she will bring out this company out of this mess but still, Amelia is not at all confident about it because Valentina is a girl who is in just high school. She can\'t do anything with just high school knowledge. Surely Valentina is a girl with her straight A\'s and a top student in her school but still, she is not sure about Valentina\'s confidence. As she knows how the director of the Jackson companies and all, she is scared that they might not humiliate her or Anthony\'s name in any way. She is just praying silently to the Almighty to make everything alright. Amelia doesn\'t want to lose Jackson companies either because at last, this is what they have at last... If these out of their hands, they couldn\'t be able to do anything but just investing in few companies. If the Jackson\'s companies go down, then there will not be any value to Anthony\'s hard work.
She is scared that Valentina might make any mistake. She doesn\'t at all know anything about companies. Amelia requested a lot from the directors for the last meetings when they declined the meeting, Amelia was so angry but can understand that this is how it works... She sighed as she saw Valentina walk inside the Anthony\'s office.
"This is Mr. Jackson\'s office, Ms. Jackson." Mari said and Valentina nodded her head.
"Leave." Valentina said and Mari looked at her.
"I sad leave." Valentina said and Mari looked at Amelia.
"You... Might not understand few things about business... Let me explain to you a few..." Valentina cut off Mari in mid-sentence.
"I didn\'t ask you anything to explain me. Did I?" Valentina asked and Mari shook her head in no.
"No, Ms. Jackson. But still..." Valentina cut off Mari in mid-sentence.
"Too much nuisance... Get out now." Valentina said and Amelia sigh.
"Yes, Ms. Jackson." Mari replied and walked out of the office.
"I said everyone to leave." Valentina said making Amelia frown.
"You telling me to leave too?" Amelia asked.
"Isn\'t it obvious?" Valentina asked.
"Valentina... I think you need to get a few things in your brain from Mari." Amelia said.
"Ohh... Really? Then I don\'t need it... I know what I should do... So, better get out of here before you piss me off." Valentina replied.
"You are crossing your limits!" Amelia said making Valentina roll her eyes.
"I don\'t care... Leave me alone now." Valentina replied making Amelia sigh.
She shook her head at Valentina and walked out of the office closing the door behind her.
As soon as Amelia closed the door behind her. Valentina walked around the office and saw the CCTV at the corner of his room. She chuckled seeing them and walked away. She took out her phone and dialed Xavier.
"There are CCTV\'s here in the office." Valentina said on the phone with a chuckle.
"What the hell? Isn\'t it your dad\'s private office? Why will he keep a CCTV there?" Xavier asked?
"How would I know that?" Valentina asked.
"Alright. Be careful with every move you do. Don\'t forget I am with you to help you!" Xavier said on the phone.
"Yes... Thank you." Valentina replied.
"Don\'t thank me... Return home with the grand success. I know you can do this." Xavier said making Valentina smile.
"Yeah... I will." Valentina replied with a smile.
"Alright... See you soon. If anything, message me." Xavier sad.
"Yes... See you soon." Valentina replied and ended the call.
Valentina looked around and found few files which of no use to make anyone get into her talks. She sighed as she sat down on the couch.
"I don\'t think, I can do this..." Valentina said as she sighed but still got up and looked around the files until she heard someone knocking on the door.
"It\'s time for the meeting, Ms. Jackson." Mari said as she opened the door and Valentina sighed. She kept her hands on the table taking the deep breaths.
"Ms. Jackson, are you sure you can do this?" Mari asked and Valentina looked at her sternly.
"Sorry, Ms. Jackson." Mari said and Valentina walked away from the office and walked towards the Conference room with Mari.
Valentina took a deep breath before opening the conference room door and as soon as Mari opened the door, she saw around 10 members sitting in the conference room. They all looked at her with their eyebrows raise but Valantina walked inside as she is a boss and owns this place... And that is true... She owns the place and will return from here naming herself as boss.
