Jack Martin was a successful businessman at the age of 25, he had taken over many of his father's businesses after he passed away in a road accident a month before Jack completed his business administration course at Harvard.
Though Jack was devastated by the sudden demise of his father, he put up a strong front for his mother, younger sister and the business. Jack knew he had to be strong, he took over the business the day graduated and started working his ass off day and night to increase the value of his company manyfold to the level even his dad couldn't imagine.
Jack was assisted by his mother in taking over the business. She had originally been his father's P.A. when they fell in love and even after they married she kept up with her duties and after so many years, she was well versed with the business.
Jack's mother had helped him with the business for the past two years and now that Jack was fully in control she had decided to put her papers in despite Jack's constant protesting.
Jack had a P.A. and advisor in his mother and he was reluctant to let her retire, but she was determined to leave the office and devote her time in charitable causes. Though Jack was relieved by the fact that his mother had taken it upon herself to find a perfect replacement before she left.
It was a month after she announced her retirement, Jack's mom told him his new P.A. would be joining office today.
After a while his mother came into his office and announced the arrival of his new P.A. "Jack, I would like you to meet your new P.A. Mellisa robbins."
Whatever Jack had imagined his P.A. to be, he did not expect the vision in front of him.
Mellisa Robbins turned out to be a tall blonde with captivating brown eyes and a charming smile. Jack noticed that she wasn't wearing excess makeup and natural beauty, however, the most intriguing fact about her appearance was her conservative clothing which he thought were an attempt to look unattractive. "But Why?" he thought.
His mother cleared her throat and brought him back to his senses.
"I'll leave you two to get acquainted." Jack's mother said and left his cabin.
"Have a seat, Ms Robbin," Jack said in a business-like a tone.
"Thank you, sir." Ms Robbin said in a very shy voice which sounded like music in Jack's ears.
"Tell me about yourself Ms Robbin," Jack said, keeping his voice calm with immense effort.
"My name is Melisa Robbin, I am 24 years old. I passed out of secretary school a year ago and worked with a local firm until I was hired by your company to work as your P.A. I live in New York, but I was born and brought up in Florida where I lived until my parents passed away a few years ago."
Jack could see her face squirming in an attempt to stop the tears from coming out, he decided not to dig into her personal life further and get down to business.
"Ms Robbin I assume you have been briefed about your tasks and duties by my mother?" Jack asked.
"Yes sir, I have been told all of my tasks from preparing your coffee to scheduling your meetings, I will start from tomorrow," Mellisa answered.
"That's all then, you may leave," Jack said.
