“Ms. Schofield, there’s one more thing. These men are Desmond Hewitt, Tobin Hewitt, and Septimus Hewitt…” He pointed to each of them. “They all served in the First Legion and were elite soldiers. But during missions at the border, their mental power was badly damaged. They couldn’t stay on the front lines, so they retired and came back to the Hewitt Castle to handle the security work.”

Elizabeth looked at the seven men immediately.

They stood tall with sharp, steady eyes.

The way they moved just now, fast and perfectly in sync, and how calm they stayed even with guns pointed at them showed they were on a different level than ordinary guards.

They were at least as good as Melton and Tiffany, maybe even better in some ways.

This was exactly what she needed: a strong and reliable core for her security team!

Especially for the private route she planned to build back to her distant hometown. She needed a loyal, heavy–hitting force to watch over it.

Jeremy continued, “Madam considered your situation, and she knew you were bound to run into trouble like today sooner or later. Planet A001 has a special environment, and your farm needs stronger, more professional security. These seven are loyal and highly capable. Their only issue is their old mental power injuries, which need long–term care. They heard that your farm’s products can help stabilize mental power, so they’re all really eager to come. Madam asked me to see if you’d be willing to take them in. They can work for you while also recovering in your farm’s environment. It’s a win–win.”

Elizabeth understood perfectly.

The Hewitts were using “seeking treatment” as an excuse. In reality, they were giving her an extremely valuable gift–a small but elite private security team!

This favor was huge.

She suppressed her excitement and said seriously, “Jeremy, I’ve seen what they can do, and I’m incredibly impressed. People with skills are priceless. My farm is just starting, and there’s so much to do. Of course, I’d love to have their help. But because of that, I can’t just accept such a big gift for free. As for their ‘treatment,’” they need potatoes and sweet potatoes. As long as I have them, they’ll have plenty. That’s not a problem. But besides that, if they work for me, they deserve a salary and benefits that actually match their skills. I don’t believe in unearned rewards. That’s my principle. Please tell Madam I appreciate her kindness, but I can’t just take them for free. We can sign a formal employment contract and do everything by the book.”

Jeremy’s smile widened. He could see that Elizabeth wasn’t the type to take advantage of people. Her honesty and principles made her even more impressive.

He nodded. “Ms. Schofield, Madam already knows what kind of person you are. In that case, we’ll do it your way. You can discuss the contract details with them directly. Madam only said that letting them follow someone worth following is the best thing she could do for them.”

Elizabeth finally smiled, feeling a huge weight lift off her shoulders. A sudden surge of confidence and excitement washed over her.

She looked at Desmond and the others and said loudly, “Everyone, thanks for the help just now! I can’t promise much yet, but if you work with me, I can at least guarantee one thing. You’ll have all the potatoes you need to help with your mental power! I’m counting on you all to keep this farm safe from here on out!”

Desmond, the leader of the seven, stepped forward. His words were simple but firm. “Ms. Schofield, we’ll do our duty. You can count on us.”

The other six nodded in perfect sync, their eyes full of determination.

With this new team on her side, Elizabeth felt much more confident.

She turned to Fiona and the others with a smile. “Alright, show’s over. Let’s get back to business! Jeremy, everyone, today we have a special deal. Everything at this stall is 20% off. What would you like to buy?”

The stall quickly became lively again, even busier than before.

People traded and chatted with excitement and curiosity, still talking about the intense yet satisfying scene from moments ago.
