"Do you mind telling me what you get after I join your company, and go on the job?" Jaden asked after a moment of contemplation.
Of course there was no way that Jaden was going to believe that Alex was going through all this trouble simply because he thought that was going to benefit Jaden. At least, for him to undergo all this trouble in order to look for a person who could take the job although the company was already facing such a situation, it was obvious that there was something that he was going to gain as well.
Alex from the other hand was not that much surprised after Jaden asked the question. Of course, he believed that such a question of going to rise up, especially considering the promises that he had made.
Although not directly, he had somehow told Jaden that he was going to earn big, during the time that he accepted the job.
Alex immediately decided to reveal what he was going to gain in this. Of course he felt that it was good enough that Jaden had not outrightly decided that whatever Alex had said was just a lie.
"For my part, I'm going to get a boost in my finances. I'm currently in trouble, as you can see that the company is about to close down due to the pressure that It is facing. So, as long as I manage to get someone that can do the work, I'm going to be assisted out of this situation." Alex responded with an honest expression on his face.
Jaden thought about it and realized that it seemed to be true. After all, the situation that the company was in, it desperately needed finances in order to pay the debts that it was having.
But of course, it needed more than that, considering that the reputation of the company had already suffered, and the majority of the employees of the company had already decided to resign. But even then, as long as there was enough money, it was definitely not impossible for Alex to start the company afresh again.
"But there's something that I'm still confused about. For a bodyguard, there is usually a standard that is required. So, do you think that I am qualified enough to take the job? After all, I do believe that there is testing that is required in order for someone to get a job, especially a lucrative job like this one." Jaden asked with raised brows.
Of course no matter how small the company was, as long as it was related to safety, those that wanted to work in that company had to undergo some testing period, before they were allowed to join.
At the end of it all, if a person joined the company and was not capable of the responsibilities that were given to him, the reputation of the company would definitely go down the drain.
After hearing Jaden's question, Alex's expression became a little complex. He looked at Jaden and said with a helpless expression on his face, "I'm currently stuck. I don't really have a way out of this situation. Right now, I can only take what is available."
Jaden immediately understood what Alex was trying to imply here. With the reputation of the company right now, it was definitely impossible for him to be able to get a person to join the company. After all, joining the company would immediately make that person the enemy of the person who was targeting this company.
Additionally, there was no guarantee that there was going to be income for the person who joined the company, considering that the company was about to go bankrupt. In such a situation, who would try to risk joining such a company?
"What about the one who is giving out the job? Doesn't he have some standards of the bodyguard that he requires?" Jaden asked once again. According to the income of the job that he was being offered, it was clear that it was kind of risky.
Since that was the case, that implied that a skilled person was actually required for this job, and not just anybody. And right now, Alex had just met with Jaden, and he did not know much about him at all, but still, he was already offering him the job.
"Just like I said before, I currently don't have much of an option. Additionally, it is not just me, but the situation over there is definitely not good as well, and that is the reason why they came to such a small company as mine in order to get a bodyguard. Otherwise, don't you think that they would have just gone to those big organizations in order to get the bodyguard that they wanted?" Alex responded with a calm expression on his face.
Jaden relaxed his mind for a while, as he began thinking about the situation clearly. It was clear that right now, he was being given a job, which was related to the system mission.
But then again, it was very clear that the job that he was being offered was somehow dangerous. Otherwise, it was definitely impossible for him to be able to receive such a lucrative salary. Additionally, how was it possible that they were just going to give him a job like that? It implied that his life would definitely be at risk, considering that most of the times, bodyguards would always put their lives in danger first before the person that they protected.
Alex on the other hand simply looked at Jaden. He did not say anything, and simply waited for Jaden to come to a decision. Of course he believed that it was going to be difficult for Jaden to accept such a job, if he did not believe what he had told him.
But even then, he possessed hope that Jaden would do so. As long as Jaden accepted, everything would be okay, not only for Jaden, but even for himself. He could already tell that Jaden was having some troubles with money, just considering that the suit that he was wearing right now was kind of worn out, although it was well maintained.
After a while, Jaden finally looked at Alex and said, "I agree."
Alex was a little startled by the response from Jaden. He had expected that Jaden was going to ask a few more questions, but he had not expected that Jaden was going to accept just like that.
But in the next moment, he became excited. Since Jaden had already accepted, then that implied that the future of his company was definitely going to be better. But even then, he understood that it depended on the performance that Jaden possessed during the time that he was going to be at work.
He himself was not that much sure about the details of the job, considering that he had just been asked to bring a bodyguard there. As for who it was that was going to be protected and so on, he was not sure, considering that it was being kept as a secret.
With bright eyes, Alex looked at Jaden and said, "Thank you for accepting. Believe me, as long as you manage to do your job well, and if you are lucky enough, you should definitely be capable of earning more than just $10,000."
Jaden did not say anything, and remained silent. Of course he understood the reason why Alex said something about being lucky. If the job was filled with danger, he might actually die on the same day that he began the job, or maybe even before.
"All that I need from you right now is a few details about yourself. I just require your ID number, together with your full names, and your place of residence. That's all." Alex stated hurriedly, as if he was afraid that Jaden would go back on his word.
Jaden did not say much, and immediately provided the required details to Alex, before Alex recorded them. As for why only a few details had been taken, Jaden did not care much about it, because that was none of his concern for now.
Although the job that he had taken this time was full of dangers, but as long as he completed the mission from the system, everything was going to be okay. Additionally, it was not as if he was not going to get stronger anyway.
The system had informed him that it was capable of giving him missions, and as long as he succeeded, he was going to be rewarded with something that was going to make him stronger. So, if he managed to get even more strong, stronger than even the special forces, did that not imply that the dangers that were in the mission could be completely ignored?
After everything was finally out of the way, Jaden had finally joined the company. The company's name was Assured Bodyguard Association, a name that Jaden really doubted.
In any case, after he had completed everything that was required for him to join the company, a system prompt a immediately appeared in front of him.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the mission of joining a bodyguard Association. The reward for joining a bodyguard association is information editing.]
[The reward has already been granted, and the host's information is being edited. The host's information would be fully edited in the next 2 minutes.]
Jaden was finally relieved after that prompt. This mission of him joining a bodyguard association, although it looked quite simple, it was quite difficult, if the situation did not favor him. But even then, he had already completed it before the limit was over.
With a little smile on his lips, Jaden finally left the building, leaving behind the exhilarated Alex, who felt like his life had already been saved.
