The Bodyguard System

According to the research made on the bodies, they have been in the basement for more than a week, and were dead more than a week ago. Additionally, after a DNA was done, the identities of the six was found." Steven reported through the phone.

Clifford\'s expression changed upon hearing this piece of information. How could bodies be found inside the warehouse? Additionally, it was the basement, where very important goods that belonged to VIP clients were stored while waiting to be transported.

Not just anybody could access that basement warehouse, and the security level was extremely high. So, he could not help but wonder who those six were. But he was not having a good feeling about the identities of these six people.

Without waiting for Clifford to say anything, Steven continued, "The identities of the six people was found to be those that were involved on the first attack that involved the young miss near the campus."

Clifford\'s expression turned heavy. He knew the implication of this happening. One, it implied that there was somebody that was working against the company, against the Johnsons. Two, with the bodies being found within the warehouse, the reputation of the company was going to drop by a good margin.

And finally, there was going to be an investigation that was going to be carried out against the company. After all, these bodies being found there implied that there had to be something wrong with the company.

The main problem here was that these six people were involved with the Johnsons, but not as friends, but enemies. Even though the level of the six of them was not something that the Johnsons would pay much attention to, still, they were used as chess pieces by the Williams, if Clifford could make a bold guess.

After all, according to Steven, those people had been dead for more than one week. That implied that they died not long after they had left the police station.

Unless investigation was carried out, and evidence that would support the Johnsons was found, people would definitely be pointing fingers towards the Johnsons.

Many people would definitely make assumptions that the Johnsons were quite furious about this group of six people attacking the young miss of the Johnsons, and ended up using underhanded methods to kill them.

And perhaps they had forgotten to dispose the bodies, and decided to hide them within the basement warehouse, where they believed that they would not be found out. But unlucky for them, due to the stench that was being given out by the bodies, they were found out.

"Okay. Try to handle the matter as much as you can. But don\'t do anything as of now, other than trying to control the situation. As for the rest, leave it to me." Clifford stated.

"Yes master." Steven responded before he ended the call.

Clifford on the other hand thought about this matter deeply. Of course, it was impossible for those bodies to have appeared within the warehouse more than a week ago. This implied that they had just appeared the previous night when nobody was working within the warehouse, or early this morning.

The smell that could come from the dead bodies of six people, who had died more than a week ago, was not something that could be missed. So, if the bodies had appeared long ago within the warehouse, they would have definitely been discovered long ago.

But now, it seemed that either, the person that belonged to the Williams had only managed to get to the company recently, or somebody within the management of the company had just been recently bought over by the Williams.

None of this was good news for Clifford. Either way, he had to look for a way to eliminate this mole that belonged to the Williams. He could not allow the mole to continue staying there, as the damages that the company might suffer in the future would only increase with that mole\'s presence.

\'I will have to use all methods possible to dig out this mole.\' Clifford thought to himself, before he left his study room.

….

The following day, Jaden sat on the passenger seat inside Scarlet\'s Ferrari f8 spider. Scarlet was driving, with an excited expression on her face.

It was currently 5 in the morning, on a Monday. Jaden was not sure about what was making Scarlet happy, that she came over to call him at 4 in the morning. After he was done with his preparations, they left the residence at around 5 a.m.

Despite not knowing what was making Scarlet so enthusiastic about going to school, Jaden had a guess of his own. Perhaps she was feeling too much suffocated for being asked to stay within the residence for the past few days, without going to campus for over a week.

So of course, she has to be excited, considering that in campus, other than following the school rules, she could literally be free. Additionally, after finishing the lectures, she would be free until evening when she was supposed to return home.

Jaden maintained his silence, as he continued going through the information that he was currently focusing on. The information was related to his relatives, and the businesses that they were involved in.

The moment that he goes to Maco community, that is the time that he would start dealing with his relatives. He might not have planned to start dealing with them for the time being, considering that he did not believe that he possessed enough capability of dealing with them.

But, that did not imply that the other party would not start finding trouble with him. So, even if he was not going to be able to give them with a strong enough blow to be able to take them down, he would still have to find a way of resisting them.

He was not planning on involving the Johnsons in this matter. This was a personal issue, and he would like to solve it by himself. So, he had to look for a method of protecting himself, when the time came.

Information was power, and knowing himself and knowing the enemy was a method of winning. Of course, he would also need the capability of dealing with the shortcomings of the other party if he found them, otherwise, the information would be useless.

But Jaden did not doubt that he would be able to get the capability of doing that soon. As long as he got a few more missions, he would be able to possess enough capabilities of crushing them all.

Another thing that Jaden wanted to deal with when he got a chance was about that flash disk that he had gotten back in his apartment. Until now, he had not gotten a chance of purchasing a laptop. As for the matter of borrowing a laptop from Scarlet, he did not even consider that.

It was obvious that there was something about this flash disk. For it to be able to attract the attention of somebody powerful like Lucas Smith, who possessed a bodyguard who was powerful enough to be able to make Jaden feel danger. Jaden did not doubt that there were many secrets involved with it.

So, it was better if he did not reveal anything about it to anybody else. Of course, he could just borrow the laptop and say that he was going to use it, but according to the level of the technology that was contained in that flash disc, he could not tell what would happen after he inserted it inside the laptop.

Who knows, it might even transform the laptop into something different, making it difficult for him to return the laptop to the owner. So, to avoid anything unnecessary, it was better for him to purchase a laptop of his own. As for the money, he currently possessed enough to do that.

The two of them managed to get to school at 5:37 a.m. Scarlet was kind of crazy on the road, as she drove to school. And after she parked the car, she did not head towards the lecture block where the lecture was supposed to be held, as the lectures would begin at 8:00 in the morning.

Instead, she was heading straight towards the fighting club gym. It seemed that she had communicated with Lucas Brown and the others, considering that while they were approaching the gym, they met up with Lucas\'s group.

Lucas gave Jaden a venomous look, before shifting his attention to Scarlet, completely ignoring Jaden. As for Jaden, even though he noticed the way that Lucas was looking at him, he did not care at all. Instead, he simply followed Scarlet, quite curious about what she was going to do.

"Have they arrived?" Scarlet asked as she looked at Lucas Brown excitedly.

"They told me that they will be there in about 5 minutes. It seems that they are still looking for that guy called Alfie. Without him, it is impossible for them to be able to do anything to us." Lucas responded.

As he mentioned Alfie, there was a hint of gloom in his voice. After all, he had been defeated by Alfie, and he had no choice but to suffer the defeat, without having a chance of retaliating. Alfie was just too strong for him (Lucas) to be able to make a comeback against him.

"That\'s good. But it would have been better if they had already arrived." Scarlet responded as she pumped her face together. The excited and bright expression on her face was impossible to hide, making her appear even more beautiful.
