The Bodyguard System

Nevertheless, he was not willing to give in. So, he immediately responded, "It doesn't matter. I have already told you. This is the only chance. If you don't leave, then we are definitely going to take action, and we will be ruthless on you, no matter how beautiful you are."

Scarlet did not even bother to respond. Instead, she showed no signs of retreating, but instead, she began moving forward. At that moment, the gangsters could not help but frown.

The gangster with yellow hair could not help but feel that there was something wrong here. It was either that Scarlet had something wrong with her brain, or she had something to depend on.

Nevertheless, considering the importance of the mission, he could not allow her to enter. After all, if she came in, perhaps she might end up giving other people confidence to come over to try and enter into the company.

Of course, they were not planning on attacking anybody, considering that it was going to cause some problems with the police. But now, he had no choice. He decided that they would beat up these two people, just to scare others that would be having any intention of coming over.

So, looking at Scarlet who was ignoring him, intending to go towards the building, he waved his hand at one of his subordinates. The moment that the guy received the signal, he could not help but excitedly charge towards Scarlet.

"Hehe. Don't worry young lady, I will be gentle with you." The man said, before he stretched his hand to grab Scarlet.

Looking at the hand that was approaching her, Scarlet immediately kicked out. She did not have the intention of having anybody touch her, especially this lot of people.

Bang!

The speed of the attack was not something that the guy could react to, and neither had he been expecting that Scarlet was going to attack. So, the kick landed solidly on his left rib.

"Arrgh!"

The man immediately stumbled backwards as he cried in pain, before collapsing onto the ground. He was holding his rib, feeling that there was a bone or two that had been fractured by that kick.

That was to be expected considering that Scarlet was not holding back at all when she attacked. Additionally, the other party made no effort in blocking or defending himself against the attack. So, he was completely open to the attack.

When the others saw this scene, they could not help but be dumbfounded. None of them had ever expected that this young lady who had come over was capable of dealing with them.

Nevertheless, two people reacted immediately, and went towards Scarlet. Completely different from the first person, they did not underestimate her. Instead, they just put aside the weapons that they possessed, and attacked.

In the face of the two attackers, Scarlet managed to easily dodge the attacks by bending backwards. Then, she took a step backwards, dodging yet another attack, before she grabbed one of the arms that belonged to one of her assailants.

She pulled hard, pulling the guy who had not expected Scarlet to be so strong. As he was staggering forward, Scarlet raised her knee and hit him in the face, as he was leaning forward.

Thud!

Immediately after hitting him, she released his hand, allowing him to collapse onto the ground, next to her feet. As for the other guy, just after she managed to put her foot back onto the ground, she immediately whipped a roundhouse kick towards him.

Bang!

The kick landed on the face of the guy, and the guy was immediately thrown on to the ground as he held his face, groaning in pain. And just like that, in less than a minute, Scarlet had been able to take care of two more gangsters.

This immediately alarmed the rest of the gangsters. The leader of the group understood that sending the gangsters one by one was the same as sending them to their deaths. So, he immediately instructed the rest of the gangsters to swarm towards Scarlet and take care of her.

This time, as the gangsters charged towards Scarlet, they did not drop the weapons, instead, they went ahead to attack with them. For a moment, Scarlet could not help but feel a little flustered.

Then, she noticed something from the corner of her eye that made her almost shout in anger. At this moment, instead of coming to help her, Jaden was currently leaning on the car, observing the fight from the side, as if he was watching a show.

She could not help but want to strangle this guy. Did he not already understand that they were here to help Christine? Why was it that he was acting as if this matter did not involve him at all?

Or was he already expecting that she was going to pay him again? That was impossible. $10,000 was not a small sum of money. So, she was not willing to take it out.

She thought about it for a moment while trying to deal with the gangsters that had already reached her, and realized something. She could just continue fighting, and see if Jaden would not take action when she was in trouble. She believed that he would definitely take action in case she was in danger.

Even though she wanted Jaden to take action, that did not imply that she was willing to allow the gangsters to take advantage of her. That was an impossibility, as she had pride of her own.

Bang! Thud!

The fight between Scarlet and the group of gangsters kept on going on, as weapons were swung towards her, as she continued counter attacking. At some point in time, she was forced to pick a metallic baseball bat, and began using it as a weapon.

She had realized that it was going to be difficult for her to be able to handle this group of gangsters who held weapons when she was not armed. So, despite not being that good when it came to using the weapons, it was way better.

Jaden on the other hand continued observing the situation on the battlefield. For some reason, something that made Scarlet even angry was the fact that, no gangster attacked Jaden. They all ignored him, as if his existence was nothing.

They simply targeted her, forgetting about the fact that she came over with Jaden. Could it be that Jaden knew who these people were? Otherwise, why was it that they did not seem to be paying attention to him at all?

Jaden on the other hand appreciated how thoughtful this group of gangsters was. They did not attack him, and he was not intending to attack, at least for now. Right now, he was hoping that Scarlet would ask him to take action, leading to the generation of a mission.

But even after about 5 minutes, when Scarlet seemed to be kind of getting overwhelmed, she did not ask him to take action at all. It was as if she was hoping that he would take action by himself, something that he was not willing to do.

After all, if he took action when Scarlet was in danger, then that implied that he was going to lose the chance of getting a mission. So, he began approaching the area where Scarlet was, but that was just a precaution, in case Scarlet was in danger.

But before she was in danger, he was not going to take any action. As for him approaching, other than a few gangsters throwing him a contemptuous glance, nobody attacked him or paid any more attention to him.

Scarlet on the other hand was already sweating. She had been fighting for more than 5 minutes, but she had not managed to deal with the gangsters completely. It seemed that there were many of them, and they were way more powerful as compared to the last ones that she had dealt with.

Additionally, this group wielded weapons, making it even more difficult for her. They had managed to hit her a few times, but luckily, she had been able to move, suffering only lightly.

Nevertheless, she believed that if any of the attacks that this group of gangsters was launching landed on her, she would definitely be injured terribly. After all, they were not holding back at all as they swung the weapons towards her.

She gritted her teeth as she continued struggling, while from time to time, when there was a chance, he looked at Jaden. And the more she looked at him, the more infuriated she got. This guy was just standing there, observing everything that was happening, and showing no intention of taking action.

As for this group of gangsters, they did not pay attention to him at all. Why was it that they were not acting according to how it was supposed to be? In normal situations, when a lady and a man came over, when attacking, the gangsters would definitely attack the man first.

At the end of the day, compared to the two, the man was definitely the one that posed more danger as compared to the lady. But now, they actually thought that Jaden was completely harmless, and they saw her as a threat?

No matter how confused Scarlet was, she had no choice but to continue fighting. After all, if she did not continue fighting, she would end up being beaten, something that she did not want.

Finally, after about 10 minutes, after receiving two more hits, this time, stronger than before, she finally relented. No matter how much she did not like it, she had no choice but to ask Jaden to take action.

"Hey Jaden, are you just going to watch while they beat me up? You are my bodyguard, so you are supposed to be protecting me." Scarlet shouted amidst dodging an attack from one of the gangsters.

A few seconds later, when she realized that neither Jaden nor the gangsters had reacted, she had no choice but to give in even more. "Okay, $10,000. Deal with this group of gangsters."
