Chapter 534
“Miss Young, hello. My name is Mason West.”
“And I’m Jason West.”
As soon as they finished speaking, the atmosphere fell into an awkward silence.
Aveline asked, “That’s it?”
Mason and Jason exchanged glances before Mason dryly replied, “That’s it.”
Aveline couldn’t help but laugh. Then she asked, “What are your skills? And what are your salary expectations?”
Mason and Jason exchanged another look and then both turned to Russell.
Russell sighed and said, “Have a seat first.”
Mason and Jason sat down.
Russell briefly introduced their situation and concluded, “As for the salary, just give them what you think is appropriate.”
Aveline shook her head, saying, “I can’t just decide on a whim. They’re responsible for my safety, and it isn’t exactly safe to be around me. This job can be quite dangerous. Whatever you’re paying them, I’ll double it.”
Russell raised an eyebrow, “You’re being so generous? Can I apply to be your bodyguard too?”
Mason and Jason immediately became nervous.
No way!
Russell was going to steal their job?
They couldn’t let that happen!
If Aveline hired them, they’d be getting triple the pay–it was like winning the lottery!
Russell couldn’t be serious, right?
Aveline hadn’t expected him to say that and quickly responded, “Russ, don’t joke around. If you became my bodyguard, I wouldn’t even be able to sleep peacefully.”
Russell smiled at her. “Oh? You’re that worried about me?”
Aveline’s eyelashes fluttered slightly as she turned to Mason and Jason. “You two don’t mind, right?”
“No objections.”
They both responded in unison.
With triple the salary, how could they have any objections?
Aveline took out her phone. “From now on, I’ll be counting on you both to protect me.”
Mason and Jason exchanged numbers and saved each other’s contact information.

Just then, the waiter brought all the dishes to the table.
Aveline said, “Alright, let’s eat.”
Russell looked at her serene smile, and a faint hint of disappointment flickered deep within his eyes.
After the meal, he said, “I’ll pick you up tonight and take you somewhere.”
Aveline asked curiously, “Where to?”
Russell smiled mysteriously, “You’ll find out when we get there, but I can give you a little teaser–you’ve been there before.”
Hmm?
What place could that be?
Seeing the smile on Russell’s face, Aveline couldn’t quite figure it out. But whatever it was, she’d find out tonight.
