Chapter 251: Joining the Team

"Okay. It is a deal. I will immediately talk with Angela and make her increase the offer." Scarlet responded without hesitation.

The only thing that she would have to be worried about would be about Jaden's safety. Still, she possessed quite some confidence in Jaden that he was going to be capable of completing this mission.

In any case, she had been communicating with Sylvia in the past few days, and she realized that Jaden was definitely stronger than he was showing. It was no wonder that he was not agreeing to sparring with any of them.

So, she hoped that Jaden would complete the mission. But in case he ended up being injured, she would definitely not take the money. That was just how she was. Read latest chapters at M V L

Jaden was a little surprised that Scarlet agreed without hesitation. From the way that she was agreeing, it was as if she was the one that was going to give out the money.

Nonetheless, Jaden did not say anything. In any case, to him, all that mattered was the mission that he had been given by the system. He would have to consider everything in this mission, and ensure that it was completed cleanly.

He understood that for the optional missions, it all depended with his performance. As long as he performed well, the reward that he would get from the system would be better.

Now, the question here was on how to deal with this group of gangsters. They had guns, which implied that this was not going to be a physical exchange of fists and kicks with each other.

But, it was a good thing that somehow, Jaden had learned a little about using guns from the security guards in the compound. Most of the time that he was within the residence, he had decided to learn that.

Even though he did not have the license of using a gun at this moment, still, he might get it in the future. Yep, he had already considered having the license, considering that his job as a bodyguard might require him to use such a weapon in different circumstances.

Even though he had not learned for quite a long time, still, due to his current capabilities, he was able to show incredible capabilities while using the gun. Although he could not be considered as an expert when it came to using the guns, still, people might mistake him to have used the gun for several years already.

Of course, Jaden's learning capability had improved due to the physique enhancing pill. Even Jaden had previously not noticed this.

The physique enhancing pill improved Jaden overall physicality. Due to that, the capability of the brain was also improved, as the blood supply and other functions of Jaden's body were also improved. So, currently, Jaden's memory was quite good, and his learning ability had also improved by a tremendous amount.

Even though he could not be considered as a super genius, right now, he could be considered as a genius. And so, he was able to easily learn how to use the guns, due to the support of his learning ability, together with his reflexes that were improved, beyond the normal humans.

So basically, Jaden did not have much of a problem when it came to using a gun. He was quite a sharpshooter, but he could only use the pistols. As for the other types of guns, he had not yet been taught how to use them, though he had already studied how to.

Nonetheless, theoretical knowledge was not always a guarantee that a person could use something when it came to real practicality.

"What are you guys talking about that you don't want me to hear about?" Sylvia came over and asked. It had been quite a while that Jaden and Scarlet had been standing over here, and she could not hear anything that they were saying.

Quite curious, she decided to come over and ask. Could it be that the two of them were talking about some kind of relationship between the two of them? She understood that even though Scarlet was not saying it out loud, she was definitely interested in Jaden.

As for Jaden, it was almost impossible to be able to know about his feelings for Scarlet. But still, all that Sylvia had seen about Jaden was that he was quite professional, and never showed anything that was out of the topic that they were dealing with.

"Why are you so concerned about it?" Scarlet simply snorted in response. Then, she left the room, as she had to make arrangements and help Jaden in this mission. She had to make sure that Jaden succeeded.

It was not just about the money, but it was about the feelings that he was having. She was not willing to have Jaden getting injured or ending up dead.

One might ask why she did not just decide to stop Jaden from taking the mission, but still, it was simply because of the confidence that she possessed in him. And other than that, there was this mysterious curiosity that she wanted to exploit.

She was wondering just how strong Jaden was. And considering that Jaden had accepted without hesitation as long as a good amount of money was offered, she believed that he possessed confidence in handling this mission.

Ever since Jaden had become her bodyguard, she had never seen Jaden failing in anything. If he had to deal with a group of gangsters, he would always deal with them. Even though sometimes he would leave, for example the incidence where the three of them were taken by second tiger as hostages when the robbery failed, nonetheless, his ability to ensure their safety was something that she admired.

So, she was quite curious about Jaden's full capabilities.

….

Angela had somehow managed to get the money from her father. Of course, previously, her father had previously not intended to give her the money, unless he understood why she wanted the money for.

But when Angela spoke with her mother, her mother went ahead and convinced her father, and Angela managed to get the money. In any case, this was the first time that she was asking for something from her family, which was something that her mother thought that it was quite positive.

Now that Angela had gotten the money, she immediately went to see Jaden. But, she had no choice but to meet with Scarlet, considering that Scarlet insisted that she was the one that was doing the negotiation between the two sides.

In any case, it was just that Scarlet was trying to make sure that Jaden did not know the real amount of money that was being offered in order for him to take on the mission.

Just to ensure that Jaden was not informed about the money that was being offered by Angela during the mission, Scarlet talked about it to Angela.

"During the entire period of the mission, you are not supposed to mention anything about the money. You might end up making him asking for more money from you, which I believe that you don't want to see, right?" Scarlet asked with raised brows.

"Huh? That happens?" Angela was surprised upon hearing that. She had not expected that Jaden was such a person. Could it be that he was going to agree to do the mission at a certain price, then when he was doing the mission, he would suddenly increase the price?

That was definitely unethical. But nonetheless, she agreed with Scarlet. She was not willing to take any risk. After all, it was not going to be that easy for her to be able to get any other amount of money from her father, considering that it was quite lucky that her mother had managed to convince her father to give her the money.

But it would not always be the same if she continued like that. Perhaps even her mother would question her about what the money was being used for. And if they got to know that the money was going to be used to pay someone to do the police mission, and they understood that she was going to be involved in a risky mission, they would definitely not agree.

In fact, they would ensure that she was not involved in that mission at all. Of course, they currently did not know that she was part of the team that was supposed to take that mission. Otherwise, they would have already talked with the chief of the police, in order to ensure that she was not involved at all.

Having already come to an agreement, Angela met up with Jaden, and the two of them had to discuss about this issue. Angela went ahead and told Jaden about the details that she knew about the mission.

But considering the fact that Jaden was not going to do the mission alone, and instead, was going to go there with the other police, Angela talked with Christopher about this matter.

Even though Christopher was reluctant about this issue, considering that Jaden had agreed, and Angela, who possessed quite some influence, was also putting some pressure on him, he had no other choice but to agree.

He used the connections that he was having, and talked with the captain of their team, to allow Jaden to join them. Even though it was slightly difficult, still, it was completed, and Jaden finally officially joined the team.
