Chapter 44: Three Conditions
"My personal bodyguard? Suzanne?"
Skyview looked at Suzanne, his mouth wide open in astonishment, unable to speak for a long time.
Skyview originally thought that the bodyguard Hekka had arranged for her from the military would be a tall, muscular soldier who could knock out a cow with one punch. But Skyview never expected that his personal bodyguard would turn out to be such a delicate beauty, and with such a broad chest, would it not affect her ability to protect him effectively?
"He wouldn't happen to be the billionaire I'm supposed to protect, would he?" Suzanne looked at Skyview with disgust, surprised. Suzanne couldn't believe that this vulgar person, Skyview, was the one she was supposed to protect. Suzanne had seen all kinds of wealthy individuals, but she couldn't see a trace of a billionaire's demeanor in Skyview. He only exuded the arrogance of a rich man.
Hekka smiled, "This is Mr. Scott, the chairman of the Twin Group. Your future job is to ensure Mr. Scott's safety."
Suzanne said, "Can I..."
Suzanne wanted to refuse to protect Skyview. During their initial encounter, Skyview's gaze lingered on her chest with a lecherous intent, as though he harbored intentions of violating her body. The prospect of having to safeguard Skyview in close proximity filled her with dread, as she worried about the possibility of him crossing boundaries with her. She was resolute in her stance that her dignity was not something to be traded for money!
"You'll get a monthly salary of two hundred thousand!" Hekka calmly said.
Suzanne fell silent for a moment and said, "Okay, I agree to protect him!"
Suzanne had served in the military, and didn't earn much money. Hearing such a large amount of money, she was just unable to say no.
A monthly salary of two hundred thousand, an annual salary of over two million, no matter where you put it, it was among the highest salaries. Among bodyguards, this salary was enviable. It's worth noting that bodyguards of other tycoons only earned about a million a year. The salary Hekka offered Suzanne was double that of other bodyguards.
In theory, with Suzanne's status, even without her military uniform, the salary the army provided her was not low, enough to sustain a basic life for a middle-class family. However, Suzanne had already spent over a million buying a house for her brother Daniel, who was incompetent and addicted to the internet. Their parents spoiled Daniel excessively, and any money Suzanne gave her parents would be taken by Daniel.
Daniel played a popular online game where most players were wealthy. He spent a lot of money on the game, quickly depleting the family's funds. When Suzanne found out, she wanted to give Daniel a severe beating, but he was her own brother, and their parents doted on him, protecting him. Suzanne had no way to discipline Daniel!
Therefore, Suzanne had to come out to work. However, when it came to her abilities, she found that she was only good at security and modeling. Security work didn't pay well, and she didn't like modeling. In comparison, the job as a personal bodyguard recommended by her former commander seemed promising.
Money is all-powerful. Although Suzanne felt uncomfortable around Skyview, she decided to take the job for the money's sake.
"If Mr. Scott dares to violate me, I'll make sure he learns his lesson."
Suzanne was determined in her heart.
"Very well, from now on, Mr. Scott's safety will be entirely your responsibility. Suzanne, I've heard of your name before. With your level of professionalism, protecting Mr. Scott should be no problem!" Hekka was well aware of the rules in the military and knew that a strong woman like Suzanne in the military must possess extraordinary combat skills, hence her confidence in her.
"Don't worry!" Suzanne said proudly. "I've been through wars, so protecting the chairman of a listed company is a piece of cake! But Mr. Scott, if you're willing to hire me, you must agree on three conditions, or I'd rather give up this job!"
Skyview asked with interest, "What are the three conditions?"
"First, when it comes to personal safety matters, you must listen to me. For example, if I believe a certain trip poses a fatal danger, you must cancel it!" Suzanne said.
Skyview smiled. "Leave the professional matters to the professionals, that's my motto!"
Suzanne continued. "Second, you cannot engage in activities that harm national interests or plot against others. I know the business world is like a battlefield, but if you engage in any illegal activities, I will be the first to report you!"
Skyview spoke seriously, "I am a morally upright person, you don't have to worry about me breaking the law. I am a law-abiding citizen!"
Suzanne then presented her third condition. "Third, you are not allowed to harass me sexually!"
"What do you take me for?" Skyview said with righteous indignation. "Even if I'm a playboy, I wouldn't sexually harass my own personal bodyguard. And you need to be careful not to make a mistake."
"What mistake?" Suzanne asked, puzzled.
Skyview said self-assuredly, "I'm a handsome, young, wealthy, powerful man. Back in college, I was like a celebrity. Many women liked me, wrote me love letters, confessed their feelings, and some shameless girls even gave me hotel room keys, trying to seduce me, but I rejected them all! A man as outstanding as me is fatally attractive to women. I hope you don't fall for me. I'm too fickle; you'll get hurt!"
Hekka chuckled.
Suzanne's facial muscles twitched continuously. Gritting her teeth, she said, "You are too self-absorbed. Even if you were the last man on the planet, I wouldn't fall for you!"
Skyview widened his eyes and said, "What a coincidence, my nickname is Mr. Worldwide!"
"You..." Suzanne had spent a long time in the military, and males in the military were all disciplined and decent. This was the first time she had ever encountered someone as vulgar as Skyview.
