Jackson pov

I woke up in a better mood and started regretting the things I said to Shirley last night. Maybe if I was calmer with her I wouldn't have had so many horrible things to say about her. She looked really pissed too, I don't think she will ever forgive me for saying those things to her.

I got up from the bed and picked up my phone. I had so many calls that I missed, I was wondering who it could be that was calling at such an hour, and why they were calling. I decided to call my personal assistant, he's the only one that can give me full details on what's going on.

“Boss, we lost one of our boys.” My heart sank the moment I heard what he said to me. How did that happen and who could have done such a horrible thing? I kept asking myself as I angrily sat on the bed.

    Shirley povI could tell their conversation was very tense, I didn’t know what to say. I headed back to the sitting room when I realized that Jackson left his mother all by herself in the sitting room when they were in the middle of an important conversation.“How are you managing to stay here with him?” She asked me as she was sitting on the couch.“He’s been really good to me.” I replied to her almost immediately.“You know you can talk to me, I’m his mother, so I know how hard he can be.” Yvonne said to me. So far he has really been good to me so I had nothing to complain about.“Thanks but he’s been really good to me.” I insisted because I was telling the truth. Yvonne had no other choice but to believe what I said to her. She looked troubled, I could tell there was something she wanted to tell me but she was finding it hard to say it to me.“It’s her memorial in a few days.” I opened my eyes wider than normal when I heard what Yvonne said to me, Jackson was on his way back to the

    Shirley pov“What is going on here?” I asked all of them who were seated.“Sit down, have you forgotten what today is?” Amelia asked. I was confused because I couldn’t recall what it was.“What is it?” I asked Amelia curiously so that she could tell me by herself what the day is about.“Oh, mom, I can’t believe you wasted so many years training someone that cannot even remember your birthday.” I opened my eyes wider than normal, though I didn’t make it obvious that I was shocked, I wanted to give them the impression that I didn’t care about what the day is about, just to show them that I didn’t care about them anymore.“So why am I here? Birthdays are meant to be spent with your family, I’m not supposed to be here.” I picked my bag when I felt someone grab onto me tightly. I turned to look at who was holding me and realized it was Sharon.“Sit down.” She said to me calmly, I looked at her face and I almost forgot all that she made me go through.I removed my hand from her grip as she

I stood up from the bed and headed out of the room so that I can walk down the stairs and get myself a bottle of water. While I was walking downstairs I sighted Amelia walking upstairs.
