Chapter 36: Personal Guard



"It\'s fine. Are your thoughts in order now?" Henry asked.

"Yes, Dad. I feel much better after a good night\'s sleep," Rachael said with a smile.

Henry stared at Rachael\'s face for a bit. He could see the subtle traces of dark circles under her eyelids which she had tried to hide with her make. He didn\'t point it out and just nodded at her.

"That\'s good, Let\'s start with our breakfast then,"

The food was soon brought to the table and breakfast soon began.

When they were almost finished Henry brought out a topic which was there in his mind for a while.

"Rachael, from how things are I don\'t want to take any risks anymore. I\'ll be assigned a personal guard for you who\'ll be there to guard and monitor you all the time," Henry said with a serious expression.

"But da-"

"No buts, I know you like your freedom and don\'t want your private time to be disturbed by others but you must also understand where I\'m coming from. What if the two guards you chose to bring out with you yesterday weren\'t there? What if you had decided to sneak out alone like usual? Do you think you could have escaped those men?" Henry tried to convince Rachael.

"This…" Rachael was at a loss for words. On one side, she wanted to have her personal space and not be bothered by a guard all the time but on the other side, the thought of something similar to yesterday happening again haunted her.

After careful consideration, she finally made a decision,

"I understand Dad, I\'ll do that but is it possible for me to choose the guard whom I want by my side?"

"Are you talking about the one that saved your life?" Henry asked. He had already been informed about that by Johnson.

"But he\'s still new…do you really want him?" Henry voiced out his concerns

"Yes, if it\'s him I\'ll be at ease. Those kidnappers told him to leave me be and they would let him off but he still fought them and protected me. I believe I can trust him," Rachael said with an honest expression.

"Alright then, I\'ll inform him about it," Henry said after a thought and the breakfast soon came to an end.

Since Jin did an early morning shift yesterday, he was to take his post in the afternoon today. However, this didn\'t mean that he could relax and sleep extra hours.

In the dormitory, except for those in night duties, everyone wakes up by 6 in the morning. Those who have shifts directly report to it and those who are free engage in physical exercises.

The gym was quite well equipped and Jin loved it the moment he entered it. After an intense one-hour session he freshened up and went for his breakfast.

After he was done with that, he had planned to spend the rest of his time in the entertainment room to pass the time but Anna, the maid, informed him something.

"William, the family head is looking for you. The head butler called me just now and told me to tell you to report to the mansion,"

"Alright, thanks for informing me," Jin went to his room to dress up properly and reported to the mansion soon.

The butler was waiting for him and soon guided him to Henry\'s office room.

Knock Knock.

"Sir, I\'ve brought him," The butler said as he knocked on the door.

"Let him in," A voice escaped from the room. The butler gestured for Jin to go inside.

The moment Jin entered he felt a piercing gaze directed towards him from the center of the room. Henry\'s gaze was scrutinizing Jin from top to bottom.

Before Jin could greet him, he was met with a question, "So you\'re William?"

"Yes sir," Jin replied.

"I\'ve heard a lot about your exemplary display of courage and bravery from Johnson. Good performance needs to be rewarded so you can expect a bonus to show up in your account by today evening," Henry said with a smile on his face.

"Thank you, sir!" Jin replied. He didn\'t know how much he would be getting paid but any amount was good.

"Alright, then let me come to the main reason as to why I\'ve called you today," A serious expression took over Herny\'s earlier expression as he continued, "\' I\'ve made some enemies in this business world and they are now targeting Rachael. What I want you to do is to protect Rachael with everything you have until I deal with these bastards. Can I trust you with this task?"

"I\'ll do my utmost to live up to your expectations sir, "Jin replied.

"Johnson\'s waiting for you outside. He\'ll brief you on what you need to make sure while performing your duty. You may leave," Henry said and Jin soon left the room.

Outside like Henry had said Johnson was waiting for him. He handed him a document containing the SOPs he needed to make sure while guarding Rachael.

"I\'ve changed the roster and you don\'t need to work today. Get familiar with everything that\'s in this file by the end of the day. You\'ll be starting your new post as a young miss\'s personal guard starting tomorrow. Understand?" Johnson asked.

"Yes sir," Jin replied.

"Good," Johnson patted Jin\'s shoulder and told him to leave. He then turned around and entered Henry\'s office.

"Is the A team ready?" Henry asked when he saw Johnson\'s arrival.

"Yes sir," Johnson replied affirmatively.

"Start with the purge then," Henry said with a ruthless gaze. Johnson nodded and soon left the room.

By the next morning, several underground businesses run by the Richard Group had turned to ashes. Various important documents were procured and were under the scrutiny of Henry\'s men for anything which could be used against the Richard Group.
