The Bodyguard System

Jaden had already left the private room. This time, he was heading straight to the managers office. Previously, he had left this place without receiving his monthly salary. So, he was going to ask for his share. He could not work for an entire month without being paid, right?

In just a matter of a few minutes, Jaden had already arrived at the entrance of the managers office. Currently, there were two people at the entrance, they were in charge of security in this part of the club.

When they saw Jaden coming over, even though they felt that he was slightly familiar, they did not think much about it. Instead, one of them took a step forward and asked, "May I know what you are here for?"

"I'm here to see the manager. There is something that I would like to discuss with him." Jaden responded nonchalantly.

He was not surprised that the two of them could not recognize him. In any case, he always worked outside the club, at the entrance. So, it was normal for him to have minimal interactions with those that worked inside.

In fact, they had already met several times, but even then, the interaction between them was not that deep. Other than a few casual exchanges, there was not much to discuss between them.

After hearing Jaden's words, the two of them looked at him. It was as if they were trying to judge if what he was saying was actually true. In any case, within the club, it was normal to find that there was somebody that would come over to cause trouble.

But of course, it was not an impossibility to find that there was someone who really wanted to discuss business with the manager of the club. So, they were currently not sure if Jaden was really serious about what he had said.

Looking at the way that he was dressed, he was quite decently dressed. In any case, they could estimate that the clothes that he was wearing were definitely worth about a few thousand dollars.

"What kind of business would you like to discuss with the manager? In case it is something that another person can handle, we will direct you to them." The bouncer stated after contemplating for a while.

"Oh, it is just a little matter really. I'm here to look for my payment. Even though I did not complete an entire month working here, still, I should receive my payment, right?" Jaden responded with his head cocked to the left.

The two bouncers immediately frowned after hearing that. This guy was here to ask for payment? What kind of payment was he here for? Additionally, this guy was claiming that he had been working here for about a month, and had not been paid?

"If you are here to cause trouble, I would advise you to leave right now. Today, we have a special guest that the manager is currently attending to. So, I do hope that you do not cause any unnecessary trouble. Otherwise, we will have no choice but to throw you out of the club." The bouncer stated with a cold expression on his face.

Since they were not sure if Jaden was here to cause trouble or not, they could not make a decision immediately. So, it was better for them to give a warning first. In case Jaden tried to cause trouble, they could simply take care of him.

Additionally, it was a good thing that the manager was currently dealing with an important guest. So, even if they took care of Jaden, the manager would not blame them. After all, they would be helping the club, considering that they would be making sure that the guest that was being attended to was not disturbed.

Jaden's expression remained unchanged. He simply smiled slightly and said, "Well, I'm not here to cause trouble. I have already stated the reason why I am here. As long as I receive my pay, I will leave immediately and deal with my own business."

The bouncer who was communicating with Jaden was about to respond when the other one suddenly pulled him back. Then, he looked at Jaden and asked, " Are you sure about that? Believe me when I say that, if we find that you are only here to cause trouble, you will not have a good time."

Jaden nodded his head and said, "You can simply verify by asking those that are related to the employees of the club about the staff register. You'll find my name there."

"What's your name?" The bouncer asked curiously. He could tell that Jaden was quite serious, and it seemed that he had been working here.

In any case, despite the club being slightly smaller as compared to the top clubs within the city, still, it was quite big nevertheless, and the number of staff within the club was quite big.

So, it was impossible for him to be able to know each and every person that worked within the club. Additionally, he was currently stationed to guard the office that belonged to the manager of the club. So, his interaction with the other staff members of the club was quite minimal.

"My name is Jaden Moore. I was working as a bouncer at the entrance of the club." Jaden responded.

The expressions of the two immediately changed after hearing the name, along with the role that Jaden was playing. Not long ago, they had heard that one of the bouncers had been beaten up by somebody who had come over to the club.

Initially, they had been infuriated after hearing that. Even though the relationship between them and the bouncer who had been beaten up was not that close, but even then, they were colleagues. So, they had to take care of each other.

But they immediately changed their minds the moment that they knew who it was that had beaten up the bouncer. The background of that person was not something that people like them could meddle with.

So, despite the displeasure that they felt, they had no choice but to keep silent. Additionally, from the way that the manager was treating the other party, it was clear that if they tried to stand up for the other bouncer, they might end up losing their jobs, and even worse, they might even end up in the same situation as the bouncer who had been beaten up.

He tried scrutinizing Jaden. But no matter how many times he looked at him, he did not see any injury on Jaden. It was as if this guy had not suffered any injury recently.

At this moment, he could not help but doubt that Jaden was someone who had been beaten up. Perhaps he was just somebody who had decided to give up the job, or had been sacked. Nevertheless, he had to confirm first.

Immediately after that, the bouncer immediately took out a walkie-talkie. Then, he immediately contacted those that were in charge of handling the staff of the club.

"Hey Nathan, do you know any person by the name Jaden?" The bouncer asked urgently.

"Jaden? Let me confirm…." A male voice came from the other end of the walkie-talkie. Then, there was a moment of silence before a response came from the other side. "Oh, yeah. There was somebody called Jaden. He was working as a bouncer at the entrance of the club.

But he was beaten up a few days ago, on Friday I think. After that, nobody knows where he went to. Is there any problem?"

The bouncer was immediately relieved after hearing that Jaden was part of the club's staff. So, he lightly replied, "He is here right now. He came to see the manager to ask for payment. But the manager is currently busy. So, I do believe that you can handle that, right?"

"He is there? Are you serious? I'm pretty sure that with the injuries that he suffered, it is impossible for him to come over right now. Could you have mistaken him for somebody else?" Nathan asked confusedly.

The bouncer was also slightly stunned after hearing the response. Jaden was the one that had been beaten up? He had not been there during that day. Still, he had heard rumors about how badly Jaden had been beaten.

According to the rumors, the injuries that Jaden had suffered would not heal for several months. Additionally, he would be a cripple even after he healed. The medical expenses themselves were definitely not something that Jaden, an ordinary bouncer could handle.

Even if the medical bills were settled by somebody else, it was impossible for him to be able to heal up in just a matter of a few days. So, could it be that there was something wrong here?

The bouncer looked at Jaden suspiciously. No matter how many times he looked at Jaden, there was no any indication that this guy was injured recently.

He squinted his eyes. He wanted to question Jaden further, but decided against it. Instead, he responded to Nathan and said, "Well, I am sending him over. He is quite strange. You'll understand when you see him."

Immediately after that, the bouncer ended the conversation between them. Nathan on the other hand was completely confused, not understanding what was strange about Jaden. Could it be that this guy had come over with several bandages all over him?

Although he was curious, he decided to be patient. In any case, the bouncer had said that he was sending Jaden over. So, he would be able to see how strange this guy was.

The bouncer on the other hand looked at Jaden and said, "As I had informed you before, the manager is currently dealing with something important. So, it is impossible for him to handle matters related to you. Nevertheless, you should know Nathan, right? So, just go over to him and he will sort things out for you."

"Alright." Jaden responded. In any case, he was not here to cause trouble. He was simply here to ask for his payment. So, if there was anybody else that was going to handle the matter, there was no need for him to waste time looking for the manager. He decided to go over and look for Nathan.
