Chapter 26
CHAPTER TWENTY SIX. Dressed in a pair of purple suit and her short hair styled beautifully, Jennie walked into the conference room, she looked down and thousands of eyes were staring back at her. The hall was filled with reporters, netizens and even some curious public personnels. She particularly chose this hall because it was in the heart of the city and the show would be broadcasted live so how would Teresa Martins refuse her when she makes the announcement, the thought of working with her brought a smile on her face. She mounted the podium in a prideful manner as the reporters clicked pictures of her. " Good day everyone, I am Jennie Wilson of the GoodLife agency. I am here to sincerely apologize for what has been going on with our agency. I really hope the public can see our sincerity and please forgive us, we will try to be transparent from today, we are really sorry" as she said those words, tears were streaming down her eyes. Deep in her heart, she cursed everyone for making her shed tears..
The reporters and everyone around were enraged by her fake speech and wanted to ask her some questions but sensing their minds she quickly spoke up.
"I have one more announcement to make". Everyone listened with rapt attention," because of this scandal, most of our investors have pulled out but someone else has agreed to partner with us now.... Teresa Martins". As the name left her lips, everyone began to talk at once. The new business woman of New York City wanted to partner with this criminal but why?.
The public and netizens went into an uproar and the internet was in a frenzy.
"Is Teresa Martins really not aware of what this woman has done?".
"If she decides to invest in the GoodLife agency, all the respect I had for her as a woman will be gone". "I can't believe she wants to partner with such a company". "She should step out and clear her name"
"I think the GoodLife agency just wants to use her name to create hype".
"We have never even seen the person that wants to invest in the business". "What does this Teresa Martins look like?". "I bet she is some old sleazebag".
These were some of the comments of the netizens online and even the reporters were getting ready to ask Jennie how she managed to bag the Deal when the door to the conference room flung open and a tall slender figure walked in. Everyone was stunned at who this woman was, her charisma and poise could not be ignored and she had an authoritative aura emanating from her. Everyone wanted to know who this woman was but she had her face covered with a face mask "Who is this woman?" Some of the people asked each other. Jennie was surprised at the woman who entered and stole everyone's attention, she also wanted to know who the woman was. Her walking step, her charisma and Even her person screamed of elegance.
Teresa walked up to the podium followed by Jemima. She personally wanted to face slap Jennie by herself but she couldn't give her the luxury of knowing who she was so easily.
"Good day everyone" she spoke into the speaker, everyone was amazed at how authoritative her voice sounded, even Jennie found herself moving a few meters away from the podium. She wanted to know who this woman was to interrupt her press conference like this.
"lam Teresa Martins". Immediately the words left her mouth, the whole hall went into an uproar, reporters struggled to take as many pictures as possible. Everyone tried getting a glimpse of her even if she wore a face mask. "Oh my God, even with a face mask on she looks so graceful'.
"I hope she slaps the GoodLife agency so hard on the face".
"Her aura is just too much to handle"
"Teresa, please let us see your face".
The netizens who were criticizing her a while back suddenly turned to her fans, in less than fifteen minutes she had become the highest searched on the internet.
"I believe Miss Jennie Wilson here has made an announcement that I would be partnering with her, this is something I am not aware of and as I had the announcement, I had to personally come here" she said turning to Jennie," when did we make this agreement that I am not aware of?" She asked in such a voice that Jennie felt goosebumps on her body.
Teresa turned to the thousands of eyes on her again as she spoke into the microphone again.
"I believe Miss Jennie Wilson has made a wrong announcement because I will not invest in a company that has no integrity and any shame at all, all the evidence against her is real so why would I waste my time in investing in her company when she would go down the drain sooner or later. Immediately I heard her announcement, I went in search of Information about her and sad to say but I will not work with a company who kills her own models for selfish gains' she collected some documents from Jemima," In this document, contain all the details of her illegal dealings". Jennie could not believe it, just a while ago she was on the road to stardom again and now she has been destroyed beyond repair, no matter how she tried, she has been destroyed.
"So since Miss Wilson wanted to use me to create hype, I believe I should help her do that, for the fact that I am new to this place and not from the entertainment industry doesn't mean I will spare anyone who tries to anger me, this is my warning to you" her voice held so much authority that everyone was left speechless by her including Jennie.
"And as for this Information I have, I will give it to the company that deserves it'. Saying that she immediately walked out of the hall followed closely by Jemima. For a few minutes, nobody in the hall said anything, they were all dumbfounded with the face slap from Teresa Martins, even Jennie was stupefied. What the hell just happened.
Quickly Dolly walked up to her," we have to leave now ma, the police will be here soon".
Jennie just stood and was looking at Dolly like she didn't know her, she was in her most vulnerable state right now and her expressions didn't go unnoticed by the people around.
"I feel my face swollen from Teresa's slap".
"Oh my God, she is so cool".
"She might not be a celebrity but from today I am her fan".
"I wished she would show us her face".
"She is really cool".

She muttered under her breath as she scanned through the comments, she was too surprised to say anything. Truly this man has a way of always making her feel loved.
"Ma, the big boss is waiting for you in the parking lot". Soon after Jemima finished her sentence, Teresa quickly grabbed her bag and rushed off. All she wanted to do now was hug the man she loved.
Immediately she boarded the car, she threw herself in his embrace and sobbed. He just stroked her hair lovingly and didn't say anything, this woman in his embrace was just too easy to please. "Hubby" she said amidst sobs," why?".

"Thank you so much" she replied, still clinging onto his embrace, she didn't want to leave him for fear that he might leave her." Don't ever leave me okay". "The day I do that is the day I wish to die" he replied and kissed her forehead. Seeing her reaction now he was glad he did it, she was really happy about it. He so much wanted to show her to the world but he also knew it was not time yet. For now he would keep making her happy and feel loved.

" Thank you for coming into my life too baby" he replied and kissed her. "Let's go on a ride hubby". "As you wish” he replied and zoomed off with the car.
