My Hitman System

Chapter 37: Standing Guard



\'Isn\'t this a bit too boring…\' Jin thought to himself. He had only read three pages of this ten-page-long document. What was worse was the fact that he had been staring at the 4th page for about half an hour or so thereby wasting away his time.

"You must always stay close to the person you\'re guarding…" Jin started reading each and every word out loud to force his mind to focus on the given task.

From the way things were going, it was clear that this would take quite some time to finish.

*BUZZ*

A notification sound came from his phone and Jin picked it up to check.

\'50,000 Draks had been credited to your account\' The message read. [A/N:- It took me a while to come up with a name for the currency. TADA~ Here it is. With 50k Draks one should be able to buy a PS5 console in our world]

"Sweet!" Jin exclaimed.

\'This must be what the family head was talking about,\' Jin thought. His earlier dull mood was soon overtaken by joy. This helped Jin concentrate on the document. If he did good in his task then he would definitely be getting more of such bonuses in the future.

Jin managed to finish the document by 10 PM. Before going to bed, he updated Mr. Robert about the latest happening. \'Maybe he might give me a bonus as well,\' Jin thought as he sent the text message.

A reply soon came.

"That\'s great! Try to gain her trust and we might be able to find something significant in the future," The text read. To Jin\'s disappointment, there were no bonuses.

"Cheapskate," Jin clicked his tongue. He soon went to bed.

The next day Jin woke up early in the morning. He was thankful that he read the whole document because, on its last page, it was written that he needed to shift to a guest room in the mansion so that he could keep watch on the young lady in a much better manner.

There wasn\'t much to pack so it took around thirty minutes to get everything inside his bag and he left for the mansion in the morning. Much earlier than usual.

At the mansion, he was soon shown to his room which was on the ground floor. Since it was such a huge mansion it was not just used by Henry and Rachael. The maids, butlers and cooks all lived here in the mansion on the ground floor. There were an adequate number of rooms for all.

The best thing about this was that everyone had a single room to themselves. Jin arranged his room and got ready. He ate his breakfast at the staff mess and reported to Johnson in the morning.

"You\'re all done with the shifting?" Johnson asked.

"Yes sir," Jin replied.

"Good, wait here. After the family and the young miss are done with their breakfast I\'ll guide you to her room," Johnson told him.

Jin acknowledged. After about half an hour Jin was guided to the dining room by Johnson. Both Herny and Rachael were sitting there.

"Here\'s the guard you were talking about, He\'ll standing guard outside your room every day. Take him along if you want to go outside," At Jin\'s arrival Henry told Rachael. She nodded.

"Also, I hope you don\'t try to sneak away anymore. I\'m only appointing you a single guard but if you do something like that I\'ll have to assign more," Henry cautioned just for the sake of it.

"I know Dad, I won\'t," Rachael folded her hands and said in annoyance.

"Haha alright," Henry chuckled and turned towards Jin. "I expect you to do your task in the best possible manner. No harm should come to my daughter, understand?"

"Yes sir," Jin acknowledged.

"Alright then, I\'ll be going to see the company," Henry told Rachael and left the seat. Johnson went along with him.

"What\'s your name by the way?" Rachael asked as she got up from her seat.

"It\'s William," Jin replied politely.

"William, thank you for saving my life back then. If not for you I don\'t know what might have happened to me. Therefore, if you need anything and can\'t ask my father for it due to some reasons don\'t hesitate to ask me for it," Rachael said in an earnest manner.

"I\'ll keep that in mind, ma\'am," Jin nodded.

"Follow me then," Rachael said as she walked towards her room upstairs. "I won\'t be going out for a while so you only need to keep a guard at the door. If there\'s anything I need I\'ll call for you,"

She said as she walked up the stairs.

"I understand," Jin responded while following her.

"That\'s my personal maid, Angela," Rachael introduced a maid to Jin who just exited out of Rachael\'s room. You\'ll be meeting her a lot.

The two greeted each other politely. Rachael soon went inside her room which was all cleaned up by Angela and opened up her laptop. She was going the binge the rest of the series which she was watching.

"So, you\'re young miss\'s guard. I heard a lot about you," Angela gently smiled at Jin. She was a woman in her early thirties and looked very responsible.

"Yes, Nice to meet you, Miss Angela?" Jin said with a doubtful face.

"Mrs. actually," She lifted her left hand to show her ring to him with a great smile on her face. "You can just call me Angela though. Don\'t stress about the age. Everyone does the same here,"

"I\'ll keep that in mind, Angela," Jin replied.

"That\'s better, I\'ll be going then. I need to take care of other chores. Take care of the miss while I\'m away," She waved her hand at him and left.

Jin stood guard right next to Rachael\'s door.
