After about ten minutes, a sleek, black Bugatti stopped outside a detached building with a courtyard in the suburbs of Sothbale.
That was the headquarters of Madison's security firm. She had specifically asked Brett to find a building with a huge compound, making it convenient for the company staff to live, eat, and train there.
Brett immediately approached her when he saw her getting out of the car. "Ms. Quinn."
Several tall, burly men in training clothes followed him. Madison could tell from their identical hairstyles and the way they conducted themselves that they were all military veterans.
"You've worked hard, Mr. Herman." Madison smiled slightly at Brett and nodded at the tall and burly men beside him.
Brett began introducing them one by one. "This is the general manager of the company, and his name is Landon Quilton.
"This is the manager of the human resources department, David Statten. These three men are from the finance department—Philip Shelward, Ronald Jonson, and Luther Dorston."
"Hello, Ms. Quinn." The new staff members greeted her politely.
Madison nodded and led them into the office to talk. On the way, she briefly got to know each of them.
Landon was the oldest among all of them. He looked as if he were about 45 years old and was the most grizzled out of all of them. He seemed as if he would have many stories to tell.
Apart from Landon, there were Luther, David, Philip, and Ronald, in order of age.
Madison asked, "Are the rest of the staff here today?"
David nodded. "Yes, they are."
"If so, tell everyone to come to the conference room. I have some arrangements to announce regarding your work."
"Got it." David took out his phone and tagged everyone in their work group chat.
While waiting, Madison asked David for a copy of all the information on each staff member.
Those he looked at immediately sat straight up in their chairs and looked ahead.
Madison pretended that she had not seen the exchange and spoke up. "I'm sure you all know who I am, so I won't introduce myself. I'll get straight to the point.
"I summoned you here today because there are three jobs that I would like to assign.
"Firstly, I need a female assistant, and I already have a candidate that I'm interested in."
Madison looked down at the documents she had and scanned the faces of the crowd. Her gaze alighted on a woman who had short hair, who was around the age of 24.
The woman was wearing an army green training uniform, looking aloof and intimidating.
Madison looked at her and said, "Danielle, would you like to be my personal assistant? You'd live with me every day and help me deal with personal matters.
"Apart from your salary at the security firm, I'll also pay you an annual salary that amounts to 300 thousand after taxes. You'll also receive bonuses from time to time, as well as staff benefits. Of course, if you have other matters to attend to, you can ask for time off as long as you tell me in advance."
