Mafia King’s Innocent Bride

CHAPTER 91: THE BIGGEST INVESTOR



Sophie’s POV

“Sophie, are you sure you’re going to be alright alone there?” asked Miss Felestine.

I still call her Miss Felestine because I still can’t address her as ‘Mom’ or ‘mommy’. She said that she can wait until I can finally call her that.

I smiled. “I want to practice talking to our company investors. You always go with me and you always save the conversation for me. I think I wouldn’t be able to practice my marketing skills with that. I will forever rely on you.”

“But I like it when you rely on me.”

She smiled. “Alright then, I would let you talk to our biggest investor today. He would meet you at the conference room at 10 am today.”

“B-Biggest investor? B-But Miss Felestine, what if I wouldn’t be able to convince him?”

“Then we lose our biggest investor.” she just said as if it wasn’t a big deal.

“But—

“I trust you, Sophie. You can do it as long as you believe in your self. Trust me, you can do it.”

I wanted to complain but the smile on her face was enough to calm me down.

Later on I went out from Miss Felestine’s office and called Venom.

“Miss Sophie?”

“Venom, I feel so nervous, what should I do?”

“Huh? Why do you feel nervous, Miss Sophie? Did something happen?”

“I will be talking to our biggest investor later. Miss Felestine asked me to do that.”

“You mean, your mom asked you to go there alone?”

“Yes. I feel so nervous, what if I fail?”

I suddenly heard Venom heaved a sigh. “Miss Sophie, you don’t have to feel nervous. There’s no need for you to feel that way because you already made it. Remember, next week your mom will finally announce that you are her one and only heiress? You will be announced as the new president of this company next week.”

“And that is why I feel more nervous. If I fail in convincing our biggest investor, then I won’t be deserving enough to be the next president.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“Calm down, Miss Sophie. You can do it, okay? Just trust yourself and say all the things that you want to say. We all trust in you. No matter what happens, you are still the best for me, Miss Sophie.”

I smiled because of what Venom has said. “Thank you so much for being always there for me, Venom. You never really fail to make me smile.”

“You can always count on me, Miss Sophie.”

***

I just stayed at the company lobby while I was waiting for the clock to strike ten.

My hands kept shaking but I just kept on convincing myself that I can do it.

And when it was time for me to go to the conference room, I stood up as I took a deep breath.

“You can do it, Sophie. Don’t feel nervous. Don’t feel nervous.”

My hands kept on shaking as I held the doorknob.

“You can do it.”

Then I pushed the door open. I closed it behind me and roamed my eyes around the conference room.

He’s not here yet.

I sat on one of the chairs as I heaved a sigh of relief.

Good thing I was the one who came first. I could still practice the things that I should say to him.

I wonder what he looks like and if he is an old bald man.

I bet he’s an old bald man.

If he’s our biggest investor, then he must be very rich. That only means that he has accomplished many things already.

By the way, the name of the man is Dylan Jacobs. I wonder is he’s related to Lance. I will probably ask him later.

Thirty minutes more have passed.

How can make me wait for so long here? Just because he’s our biggets investor he”s already thinking that he can arrive here anytime he wants?

What a very irresponsible man he is. I won’t even regret if I wouldn’t be able to convince him. If he can’t follow the said time, then how can he even assure us that he will be worthy for us?

“Miss Sophie, Mr. Jacobs is finally here.” said Pepper, one of our staff.

I stood up and nodded. “O-Okay. Let him in.”

Then the door finally went open. I made sure that I look presentable so I fixed my hair before finally lifting my chin up to look at the man who just came in.

My eyes widened as soon as the door went close.

“Good Morning, Miss Laurens.”

The smile on my face vanished as soon as I saw his face.
