Invisible Security Guard
Chapter 190: Money is Bastard

Chapter 190: Chapter 190: Money is Bastard

In the presidential suite of the Sheraton, Yusuf Zuck met Daisy Wilkinson, and got a taste of her lifestyle.

Protected by over a dozen bodyguards, and each one clearly skilled in martial arts, both Yusuf Zuck and Fleur Carson were left tongue-tied, wondering if this woman was part of the underworld.

After exchanging greetings with Yusuf Zuck, Daisy Wilkinson took Mia to her newly opened room, while Yusuf Zuck stripped off his clothes and leaped into the surf pool.

This was his first time staying in a presidential suite, and he couldn’t help but rib Fleur Carson for knowing how to live it up.

"Haha, brother, I’m coming!" Fleur Carson laughed heartily as he too stripped and jumped in.

"Are you out of your mind? Get out, get out, you damn queer!" Yusuf Zuck couldn’t help but laugh and cry at Fleur Carson’s antics, two grown men surfing in one pool, what was this all about? So, he grabbed Fleur Carson and attempted to throw him out.

Of course, Fleur Carson wasn’t about to let himself be thrown out, so the two of them started wrestling naked in the surf bathtub.

Meanwhile, in another room, Ross’s mother was bent over, recounting all that she had seen and heard that night, with Mia occasionally interjecting. Of course, she mostly exaggerated Yusuf Zuck’s wisdom and unmatched valor.

Daisy Wilkinson listened calmly, occasionally asking for more details.

"All right, Ross’s mother, you can go now," said Daisy Wilkinson with a gentle wave of her hand after hearing her account, and Ross’s mother bowed and left.

"Mia, were you scared?" As soon as Ross’s mother left, Daisy Wilkinson drew Mia into her arms and began to comfort her softly.

"I was scared at first, but not after Yusuf Zuck came. You have no idea, she killed sixteen people all by herself. It was so cool!" Mia said proudly.

"You once said that this Yusuf Zuck is Ruth’s boyfriend?" Daisy Wilkinson smiled and asked.

"Yeah, yeah," Mia nodded vigorously: "At first, he was just a small security guard. Later, when Ruth had an accident, I recommended her to hire a bodyguard, and that’s how we found Yusuf Zuck. It was me who helped Ruth to check him out. Eventually, he started driving for Ruth, and they began to flirt with each other. But he’s a likable guy, not the kind to rub people the wrong way!"

"So, are your feelings for him merely a platonic friendship?" Daisy Wilkinson asked with an amused look, "It’s pretty rare for a man to come rescue you through gunfire across thousands of miles!"

"That’s just how he is, very loyal. I understand him and know him well. He’s the type of man who would go through thick and thin for his friends and brothers. He came because he heard from Ruth that I was in trouble. Of course, we have a pretty good relationship too," Mia said, blushing.

"Hehe," Daisy Wilkinson, being a woman herself, knew after Mia’s rambling praises that Mia harbored an unusual affection for Yusuf Zuck, and perhaps, Yusuf Zuck felt more than friendship towards Mia as well.

"Go take a bath and rest. I’ll go talk to him!" Daisy Wilkinson stood up and said.

"What are you going to talk to him about?" Mia tensed up, knowing her aunt was wonderful to her but also aware that her aunt’s methods were sophisticated. Many who had contact with her feared her, and she was no ordinary person!

Daisy Wilkinson smiled, "I’ll talk to him about becoming your bodyguard!"

"Then don’t go. He won’t agree. I’ve mentioned it to him, and he disagreed!" Mia shook her head.

"Hehe, he’ll agree!" Daisy Wilkinson patted Mia and then turned to leave.

Mia didn’t stop her. Actually, she was quite looking forward to having Yusuf Zuck as her personal bodyguard. If that happened, she could travel the world without worrying about her safety. Besides, being with Yusuf Zuck made her happy, and to be honest, she liked him.

That’s right, she liked Yusuf Zuck. Escaping from the Mainland in the middle of the night was also because she was extremely troubled. Yusuf Zuck was truly an exceptional person, and she feared the more she interacted with him, the more she would fall for this scoundrel. Yet, this scoundrel was her best friend’s man, so she chose to withdraw.

She was somewhat fond of him, but also afraid to indulge that fondness, so her running away was also to put distance between them, lest she fall deeper.

Her aunt proactively going to talk with Yusuf Zuck to ask him to be her bodyguard made her quite expectant. Her aunt had numerous tricks up her sleeve—maybe she could make Yusuf Zuck agree.

"My bad, my bad, Ruth, I’m not trying to steal your man. I just want him to be my bodyguard. My bad, my bad, Ruth, please don’t be mad at me!" Mia prayed silently, trying to justify her actions to herself.

When Daisy Wilkinson knocked on Yusuf Zuck’s door, he and Fleur Carson happened to be stepping out of the bathtub, both wrapped in bath towels, sitting at the suite’s bar and drinking red wine.

"Who is it?" Fleur asked upon hearing the knock.

"It’s Mia’s aunt!" Daisy answered from outside.

"We’re asleep, come back tomorrow!" Neither Fleur nor Yusuf Zuck were dressed, and since Mia’s aunt was a senior figure, albeit a seductive one, they couldn’t meet her without clothes. Hence, it was better not to meet at all.

"I need to speak with Mr. Zuck." Daisy’s voice was calm.

"Please wait a moment, I’ll be right there!" This time, Yusuf Zuck responded, signaling Fleur to get dressed.

Fleur muttered under his breath, "I’m going to sleep inside." Without dressing, he went straight to sleep in the suite.

Yusuf Zuck got dressed before opening the door.

Daisy had put on perfume, a very light scent, so the moment Yusuf Zuck opened the door, he was greeted by fragrance. Mia’s aunt, resembling a seductive demoness, especially with her red lips which were incredibly sexy, and her tall figure that exuded sophistication. She carried herself like a queen, lofty and aloof.

"Sorry about that, I was just taking a shower," Yusuf Zuck said, gesturing for her to come in.

"Hehe, I hope I haven’t disturbed you, Mr. Zuck!" Daisy gave a formulaic smile to Yusuf Zuck.

The two sat down on the couch, facing each other. Yusuf Zuck unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it to Daisy, saying, "You are Mia’s aunt; I should also call you ’aunt,’ but may I know what brings you here?"

"Here’s the thing, Mr. Zuck. Since you and Mia are good friends, and I can see that you both share a close relationship, I’ll get right to the point!"

"Go ahead," Yusuf Zuck prompted.

"Mia’s recent accident was due to several external factors, but personal factors also played a significant role. If she hadn’t been running about impulsively, it might not have happened. Moreover, Ross’s mother and Lyn, though they know martial arts, weren’t quick and effective in dealing with unexpected situations. So, I’d like to ask you, Mr. Zuck, to be Mia’s security consultant."

"Security consultant?" Yusuf Zuck raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, security consultant," Daisy nodded. "A security consultant is not just any bodyguard or guard, but someone fully responsible for all of Mia’s safety issues, including recruiting a security team, and so on. For safety matters, you’d have the final say on Mia’s behalf."

"Of course, as for the salary, I’ll propose a figure, but we can negotiate if you disagree."

"Thirty million yuan per year," believed Daisy, thinking the sum was substantial for just a bodyguard. After all, which bodyguard earns thirty million a year? She felt this figure should seem astronomical to Yusuf Zuck!

"Actually, Mia previously said she’d offer me several billion a year, which I didn’t accept. Didn’t she tell you?" Yusuf Zuck looked at Daisy curiously, "I didn’t come to save Mia for the money, nor am I here to profit from her in the future. I believe that friendship cannot be measured with money."

"You might think I’m being insincere or trying to raise the price, but what I want to tell you is that, in my eyes, money... is bullshit. So, I’m sorry, Ms. Wilkinson, but I won’t be Mia’s security consultant."
