The Bodyguard System

Chapter 296 The Higher-ups



The lady was silent for a while, as she was not sure on how to respond to what Jaden had said. But after a few seconds, she managed to regain her composure.

The smile on her face did not disappear, as she said, "That's good as well. Since you have decided to bring the song that you have composed to us, I do believe that you have the intentions of handing the lyrics over to us as well?"

"That's right. I will hand over everything, before leaving everything to you." Jaden agreed.

"Okay then. Allow me to go over and make arrangements for this. I will be back in a little while, please be patient with me." The lady said, before turning around and leaving the waiting area.

There was silence between the four people. Castro did not know what to say, as he found it incredible that Jaden actually possessed way better skills than him.

Even though it had not yet been confirmed that Jaden was the same person that had written the lyrics for the song, but nonetheless, the possibility for something like that happening was quite high.

But even if they left the matter of writing the lyrics aside, just from the fact that Jaden, being younger than himself, was actually capable of composing a song that was accepted easily by Dazzling entertainment, this implied that Jaden possessed better capabilities than himself.

"When did you suddenly become a music composer? From all the time that we had been together, I never knew of that." Scarlet suddenly spoke up.

"I never revealed everything that I could do. And, you never asked if I could compose songs." Jaden responded while shrugging.

Scarlet could only pout. After all, what Jaden had said was the truth. Previously, they thought that everything that they had seen about Jaden was everything that he had. But from the looks of it, it seemed that he was having many more things that he was still hiding from them, or at least, he had not shown it to them.

Sylvia on the other hand was contemplating on what Jaden had shown. From this, it seemed that the Johnson family had gone a great loss by losing Jaden.

She did not know what had really happened, considering that after Jaden had gone to see Lynette, he ended up resigning from his position as a bodyguard. Even though Lynette had said before that it was Jaden's intention to quit, Sylvia was still doubting.

"Well, where did you learn about composition?" Castro voiced out his curiosity at this moment.

"I just did some self studying." Jaden responded honestly.

"You are joking, right?" Castro looked at Jaden with a speechless expression on his face. It was clear that he could not believe what Jaden had said. Was it possible for a person who was capable of composing a song that was at the level that a company like Dazzling Entertainment would want to buy all the rights of, have studied by himself?

Even himself, someone who was considered as some kind of genius in the field of composition, was not capable of reaching the level that was demanded by Dazzling entertainment for the time being. Yet, he was someone who had studied in one of the best music schools that could be found in the first tier city that he was from.

"I'm absolutely serious." Jaden shrugged. In any case, that was the truth. He had studied everything by himself, and it was all thanks to the fact that he possessed the mastery ability.

Even though the mastery ability took most of the credit, at the end of it all, it was Jaden who was studying, and if he did not want to learn, the mastery ability would not enable him to master anything.

"Just say it loud if you don't want to tell me who it was that taught you how to compose songs. Or, could it be that it was just by a fluke that you managed to compose a high level song?" Castro asked, not bothering about trying to get more information about where Jaden had studied.

"You can put it like that." Jaden did not have the intentional continuing in this conversation, and so, he decided to end it here.

At this moment, two people also came in. It was to be expected, considering that when Jaden had come over, there were already people that were waiting here. So, it was not strange that more people would be coming over, considering that Jaden had been here for over 30 minutes already.

Castro did not continue with the conversation this time. Instead, he remained silent, showing no intention of leaving. It was clear that he was quite curious about what was going to happen next considering Jaden's moves.

Was he going to be invited to join the composers of this company as well? That was something that Castro wanted to know.

But there was another thing in his mind. He understood that he would have to go back and study hard. Even though he possessed so much theoretical knowledge, he would have to use that knowledge and be serious for once.

Scarlet and Sylvia did not say anything as well. The two ladies continued sitting there, doing their own things. Jaden on the other hand simply remained in the same place as well, waiting for the result of the lady going to communicate with others. Your next journey awaits at empire

As they were waiting, 2 minutes went by, before finally, a group of people came from the same direction that the lady had left in. It was a group that consisted of the lady, and three other men that were wearing official suits.

When they arrived next to where Jaden was, the man in the lead had a broad smile on his face. He stretched his hand towards Jaden for a handshake.

"It is nice to meet you Mr. Moore. My name is Philemon. And I am one of those that are in charge of reviewing the song compositions. You can say that I am the boss of this floor." The man said with his hand stretched towards Jaden.

As a form of etiquette, Jaden also stood up, before stretching his hand and shook the man's hand.

"It's nice to meet you too." Jaden responded politely.

After the two of them had released each other's hand, the man went ahead to speak. "To say the truth, I am really impressed by the level of the song composition. I'm impressed by your skills that were involved in the composition of this song. If I may be a little straightforward, may I know who your teacher is?"

"I did some self studying." Jaden responded honestly, even though he understood that Philemon would obviously not believe him.

As expected, the smile that was on Philemon's face froze for a moment. Nonetheless, he recovered within a span of just 2 seconds, before he continued speaking.

He said, "Oh, that is… unexpected. As for another thing, I would like to ask if Mr. Moore would be interested in joining our composition department. We can discuss the matter of the contract and so on as long as you agree."

Castro was still seated could not help but raise his brows upon hearing Philemon's suggestion. It was clear that they viewed Jaden with importance. That was the actual reason why the manager of this particular floor came over in order to invite Jaden personally.

To say the least, he was a little envious of Jaden, but he was once again encouraged that he should work hard in order to improve his skills. After all, learning from the best school would not directly make a person an expert. They will have to put in some effort as well.

Jaden was about to respond, when suddenly, a commotion suddenly erupted towards the direction of the elevator of this particular floor.

When Jaden and the others looked towards that direction, they realized that there was another group of people that was rushing over. This group of people was exquisitely dressed, yet they seemed to be rushing, as if they were afraid that if they were late, they might end up losing something great.

When Philemon and the other staff of Dazzling Entertainment saw who were coming over, they could not help but be surprised. The people that were coming over were none other than the top management of the company, including the CEO of the company.

Philemon obviously went ahead to greet them, but he was completely ignored by the crowd. Instead, something that he had never expected happened.

The CEO and the other higher ups of the company went towards Jaden, before they showed respectful expressions on their faces, as the CEO went ahead to greet Jaden.

"Forgive me boss. I did not know that you were coming over today." As the CEO of Dazzling Entertainment spoke, there was a hint of nervousness in his voice.

This was something that left the people on this floor, other than those that had come together with the CEO speechless and completely confused. In their minds, they could not help but begin questioning themselves, what the hell was going on here?

"Don't sweat it. I decided to visit this company today. I did not have anything to do after a tiresome period, so I decided to come and pay a visit to you and see how things work here." Jaden responded casually as he shook the CEO's hand.

"Jaden, you are actually the boss of Dazzling Entertainment?" At this moment, Scarlet could not help but suddenly exclaim as she stood up from her seat, while looking at Jaden with widened eyes filled with disbelief.
