Jack was talking at length with Susan on his way to the office, he gave a message to his new servant to take care of Anne perfectly. Although he couldn't talk to Anne because she was sleeping, Jack was quite satisfied when he saw Anne lying on her bed.
"I almost forgot, Alice, are you going to work in this outfit?" Jack asked the secretary quietly when the car they were driving arrived at the Muller Finance International parking area.
Alice confidently said, "I already kept a change of clothes on my desk, Sir". Luckily she listened to Erick's advice earlier to always have a change of clothes at the office, so that she wouldn't get into trouble in urgent times like this.
"Good, you are such a reliable secretary," said Jack sincerely as he put his cell phone back into his pocket. He was quite satisfied to know Anne's current condition.
The compliment from Jack made Alice smile, and so did Erick. He was happy that Alice followed his advice. Soon, both Alice and Erick got out of the car following the boss. However, just as they were about to walk into the office, they stopped right away when they saw the Henderson sisters standing in front of them. It seemed that the Henderson sisters were deliberately standing in front of the Muller Finance International office waiting for Jack, the CEO to arrive.
"What should we do, Erick?" Whispered Alice quietly.
"Just wait for the order from the boss," replied Erick curtly.
"Okay, I understand," Alice said quickly as she walked back and stood next to Erick. Jack's two trusted employees looked displeased with Marissa and Kimberly Henderson standing in front of him at this time.
Seeing the man she had been waiting for was now standing in front of her, Marissa Henderson was smiling happily. Today, she deliberately did not dress luxuriously and her makeup was kept simple. She wanted to change her image in front of Jack to become a good girl, she was even willing to replace her expensive bag with a simple cheap backpack to seek the sympathy of a Jackson Patrick Muller, the new Casanova in London.

"Security..."
"Wait, Sir. Please don't call security. I only need to talk to you for two minutes. After that, my sister and I will go voluntarily without having to be dragged by security, like the last time," Marissa shouted quickly, cutting Jack's words while showing her left arm that was wrapped in a bandage, she wanted to show Jack her wound she got from his security guards a few days ago.
"You two go in first," Jack said quietly, asking Erick and Alice to get into the office.
"Are you sure, Sir?" Erick asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, I have to welcome the two guests here first," Jack answered quietly without taking his eyes off Marissa and Kimberly Henderson who were still standing two meters in front of him.
Without being ordered twice, Erick and Alice finally got into the office first according to Jack's order. The two of them walked past Marissa and Kimberly Henderson leisurely without saying anything.
"I'm sure both of you have a certain agenda in coming to my office so early. Now, tell me quickly what your purpose is to see me today?" Jack asked uninterestedly to Marissa and Kimberly as soon as Erick and Alice entered the office.
Bug
Instead of answering Jack's question, Marissa and Kimberly knelt in front of Jack while bowing their heads.
"What are you guys doing!!!" Jack shouted, he was shocked and couldn't believe he saw the Henderson sisters kneeling in front of him.
"Please, help us, Mr. Muller. You are the only person we can ask for help right now, Sir," Marissa and Kimberly spoke in unison without lifting their faces.
"Stand up! What do you mean by that?" asked Jack, confused.
"Our father's company has been declared bankrupt, Sir. And we are currently struggling with funds to maintain the company. That's why both of us, as his children, decided to come here begging you as our company's business partner to help our company," Marissa replied pitifully.
Jack raised an eyebrow and said, "Bankrupt? Really? Why haven't I heard anything about this? Both of you better not try to fool me. I'm not an idiot you can fool around with a cheap trick like this."

"If you don't believe me, you can look on the internet for today's business news, Sir. Our father has clarified this last night, even though he said last night that our family company was fine and will survive. In reality, we have to declare bankruptcy this morning because the shareholders withdrew their shares from the company, Sir." Kimberly Henderson, the youngest daughter of Romeo Henderson joined the conversation, trying to convince Jack.
Still doubting the truth of what the Henderson sisters had said in front of him, Jack then grabbed his cellphone and tried to find out the truth about this news. He had to determine for himself whether Romeo Henderson's company went bankrupt or not. Jack couldn't believe their words because the Henderson family company was a well-known company with their women's bag products made of crocodile skin. And that kind of bag was being loved by almost all women in this world.
It was normal for Jack to doubt Marissa's words. When Jack looked for information on the internet about the truth of what Marissa and Kimberly Henderson said, he was shocked to learn that the company producing crocodile leather bags was declared bankrupt after shareholders had withdrawn their shares after knowing that they were not getting the expected profits. Because the bags produced by the Henderson company were deemed to fail to compete with similar bags from Paris, they agreed to withdraw shares from Romeo Henderson's company which resulted in the company collapsing overnight.
"Please, help our family company, Sir. Let me be useful as a child just this once."
"She's right, Mr. Muller, please help our family company. I really can't bear to see my father like that, he is very depressed because of this, Sir. Please, have mercy on our family, I also apologize for my disrespectful behavior towards you earlier."
Marissa and Kimberly begged Jack for forgiveness and help, they both looked like children who were very devoted to their parents because they dared to risk their pride for the family company. In the end, their action touched Jack a little, because he knew well who Marissa and Kimberly Henderson were.
"Get up, don't kneel like this. It's an uncomfortable scene for others to see, I'm not a snobby arrogant person. Come into my office, we'll talk inside," said Jack quietly.
Marissa, who was kneeling next to Kimberly, touched her sister's hand lightly as a code. Kimberly, who understood what Marissa was implying, only smiled a little. She was glad that their plan last night seemed to work.
"If in a minute both of you are still kneeling there, don't blame me if I won't help you," Jack continued his warning loudly as he turned to look at Marissa and Kimberly who were still kneeling in their place.
Hearing Jack's words immediately made the sisters get up almost at the same time and because they were too excited to stand up, Kimberly almost fell. But because Marissa was alert and quickly caught Kimberly's body, the girl didn't fall onto the hard asphalt. Seeing Kimberly's attitude made Jack smile cynically, he couldn't believe that there was such a careless woman. Because he didn't want to linger around for too long, Jack finally went straight into his office. The two security guards at the entrance greeted Jack right away. However, as soon as Kimberly and Marissa entered the office, they both just acted normal, because they knew who the women following their master were.
"Damn you, securities. What lowly workers! Just you guys wait, after I become Mrs. Muller I will kick both of you out of this office." Marissa thought, cursing the actions of the two security guards who disrespected her.
