The Bodyguard System

Still, in case he felt that Jaden was intending to make sure that the company collapsed, he would not hesitate to quit that position. To him, it was better for him to leave the company, rather than stay within it as it collapsed.

He could stay and try as much as possible to make sure that the company did not collapse, as long as he was the one at fault. But if it was the fault of a certain rich young master, he would definitely not take responsibility for that mistake.

As for the amount of money that he had mentioned, in most situations, most companies with the same net worth as them would not be able to raise such an amount.

It was a good thing that if there was something that this company was good at making, that was money. Most of the projects that they had taken gave them quite a surmountable amount of money.

The only reason why they could not accumulate money faster was simply because they worked on contracts, and the longer the contract, the higher the amount of money they would receive. They would receive money once, or periodically, but on a determined period of time.

Upon hearing that the company could fork out $30 million, Jaden was surprised. He had not expected that they were going to have such a large amount of money. Even when he had gone through the information previously, he thought that at most, they could get about $15 million. .net

But from that looks of it, it seemed that he had underestimated this company. With that thought in mind, Jaden suddenly thought of something else. If this amount of money was something that could be taken from the company\'s account within 2 days, then, could the company perhaps get a loan or something?

"Is it possible to secure a loan? In case you go all out, how much can you secure from a bank and other financial institutions?" Jaden asked as he estimated in his mind.

Matthew was so shocked upon hearing that question. Could it be that Jaden was not satisfied with 30 million dollars, and wanted even more? But that was too much, right? Was he trying to make sure that the company collapsed in one fell swoop?

Had it not been that Jaden was his boss at this moment, Matthew would have gone ahead to scold this young man. How could he be so reckless?

Jaden noticed the change in expression on Matthew\'s face. He understood the reason why Matthew was having such a shift in expression. It was to be expected, and Jaden had already expected it the moment that he asked that question.

But in any case, he did not care. But there was one thing that he noted in his mind, and that was the fact that Matthew was a good person, at least he was the best candidate to continue running this company.

So, Jaden would ensure that he maintained this position, as long as he could continue with the same spirit. But if he changed for the worst, then, Jaden would definitely not tolerate him at all.

Gritting his teeth, Matthew responded, "If we go all out, we can raise about $100 million. This is just an estimate amount, the actual figure can be more or less than that."

Jaden thought about it for a while, before he finally said, "Okay. I would like you to try as much as possible and find $100 million. Please, try to make sure that it is possible within 2 days. This is an emergency situation."

The moment that Jaden said those words, he could practically see Matthew\'s face turning red. It was clear that he was not happy with what Jaden was saying.

So, Jaden decided to say something about it. "You don\'t have to worry much about the money getting lost or something like that. After 1 week, I should be able to return that money with something on top of it. It\'s not like I\'m going to gamble, instead, the money that I was expecting has experienced a delay."

Even though Matthew did not want to believe what Jaden had said, still, what could he do? All the same, he hoped that what Jaden had said was actually true. If it was just that the money that Jaden wanted had experienced a delay, then, it would be possible for the money to be brought back to the company after Jaden received the money that he was waiting for.

But if it was otherwise, then the company was definitely going to collapse. And, this was going to affect the other shareholders. Of course, the person that was going to be blamed was none other than himself, other than Jaden.

He was the one that was going to follow the orders given to him by Jaden. He had of course thought of informing the other shareholders, but he gave up on it. It was definitely going to be impossible for the other small shareholders to be able to make Jaden to change his mind.

So, he decided that within one week, if Jaden did not return the money, he would report this matter to the other shareholders. That way, he will try as much as possible to make sure that he was not going to be blamed.

"Okay Mr. Moore. Be assured, within 2 days, I should be able to gather that money. Should I send that money to the account that was given for the dividends?" Matthew asked with an uncomfortable expression on his face.

Jaden had already seen the account that had been mentioned. It was his bank account. The system was surely efficient. So, he nodded.

Since there was nothing else to do, he rose from his seat and said, "I will get going then. There is something else that I need to handle for the time being. Just send the money directly to my account when you get it."

"Sure Mr. Moore." Matthew responded. Then, he also stood up from the seat, before following Jaden towards the exit. The two of them went past the receptionist who was still standing within the room, not sure on what to do.

When they reached her, Matthew looked at her and said, "Mercy, I want you to look for Rose. Contact her and tell her to come back as soon as possible. There is something of great urgency that needs to be taken care of."

Rose was Matthew\'s secretary. She was currently out, dealing with something involving the acquisition of a certain facility that was going to be used for the training of the security guards.

"Yes sir. I will do that." Mercy responded immediately. Then, she waited until the two of them disappeared inside the elevator, before she went towards Matthew\'s desk.

There, she took a phone and made a call. She was calling the secretary, to inform her about what she had been informed by Matthew.

Jaden left the building under the gaze of Matthew. Of course, Matthew sending Jaden out personally had immediately attracted the attention of many people that were present within the building.

They already knew about the identity that Matthew possessed, and so, they were quite surprised and curious about who Jaden was. After all, it was not that easy to be able to make the CEO of a multi-million dollar company to send them out personally.

Jaden did not pay much attention to them, got inside his BMW, and left. The only one who remained behind while watching Jaden\'s car disappearing into the distance was Matthew.

To say the least, he was surprised by the car that Jaden was driving. He had thought that Jaden, a person who owned 51% shares of such a large company was going to drive a fashionable sports car, just like the other youths. But that car was definitely not like that.

Added to the fact that Jaden was dressed so simply, and the car that he was driving, Matthew was having a shift on his opinion about Jaden. Still, he could not help but think that perhaps it was not Jayden being humble, but instead, it was simply because he had lost a lot of money before.

Actually, it was not impossible that Jaden had lost everything to gambling. No matter the probability, Matthew still hoped for the best. And for that reason, he decided to go back and arrange for everything.

Of course, he was not going to work hard to get the money. If he really went all out, he could get more than what he had said in front of Jaden. But that would be plunging the company deeper into trouble, in case Jaden was not genuine in what he had said.

….

Two days later, Jaden was inside his room within the Johnson residence. He was still scrolling through the information, trying to look for another company that might be his next target, other than the one that he had already decided on.

At this moment, his phone suddenly rang, with his phone app displaying over the browser app that he was using. Jaden noticed that it was Matthew\'s number.

Matthew\'s number was on the documents that he had come with from the company. That was where Jaden took the number, and saved it in his phone.

The moment that Jaden received the call, Matthew\'s voice came from the other end, "Hello Mr. Moore. I have managed together the amount that you needed. I have already initiated the transfer, and the money should be transferred in your account within the next 10 minutes."
