Chapter 13 An Eccentric Security Guard
Jonathan didn’t mean what he said and only wanted to tease Jessica. Being flirtatious with a gorgeous lady was a pleasure to any man. Just then, he slid both his hands inside his pockets.
His actions looked as though he was going to take off his pants in front of them.
Jessica was taken aback and hollered, “What on earth are you doing? You pervert! What an oddball you are!”
She was about to lose her mind and felt that the world had gone crazy. At the same time, she wondered in distress where this guy came from.
After Jonathan saw her huge reaction, he took out his ID card from his pocket and said, “I’m showing you my ID card. What do you think I was going to do? You thought I was going to take off my pants, didn’t you? Oh lord, I didn’t take you to be so dirty-minded. But I like it!”
Yasmin was normally very ladylike. However, she wasn’t able to hold in her laughter. She laughed so hard that tears started rolling down her cheeks.
“Hahaha! Jessica, you’re so dirty-minded. He is just taking out his ID card,” Yasmin said.
In an instant, Jessica’s face flushed with embarrassment. Just then, she realized that Jonathan was wearing the security guard uniform of their company. “You are a newly appointed security guard, aren’t you?” she asked.
Jonathan chuckled. “Yes. It’s my first day here today.”
“What are you doing here?” Jessica asked sternly.
He realized that she couldn’t take a joke and replied, “I’m doing a safety inspection.”
His reply sounded serious as he put on a somber expression.
“Ok. You don’t have to come to work tomorrow. Go to the finance department and get a month’s worth of salary. Get out of here immediately,” Jessica said briskly.
Geez! Jessica’s words took Jonathan by surprise. He thought to himself, What a generous lady. I can’t believe she’s willing to pay me a month’s worth of salary when I’ve only worked for two hours. Too bad I’m not here to earn money but to protect Yasmin. I can’t leave.
A thought flashed through his mind instantly. He turned to Yasmin and said, “CEO, you must be very kind-hearted since you’re pretty. I recently changed my job from being a soldier and gave all my savings to my family. I didn’t dare to tell them that I was leaving the army. Please don’t fire me. It wasn’t easy for me to get this job. I promise to work hard in the future.”
Jonathan believed that Yasmin was soft-hearted and aimed at it.
As expected, Yasmin responded, “I see.” Then, she turned to face Jessica and said, “Jessica, I’m sure he was just messing with you. Let it go.” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Although Jessica looked austere, however, she wasn’t an unreasonable person. “Don’t let me catch you again, you pervert!” she warned.
Jonathan immediately left after that.
That was the first thing that he did. Soon after, words of this incident got spread out quickly and became the subject of everyone’s gossip.
Jonathan instantly became infamous for being flirtatious.
The second incident was about a PR executive of the company named Jossie Perez. She was a 28- year-old pretty lady. With a black tight-fitted dress on, this woman looked suggestive.
She looked like the type of woman that made men go crazy and beg for a fling but would not make her their wife.
That was the impression that Jossie gave off.
Not to mention, there were even rumors going around about how she slept with a customer.
Therefore, everyone liked to talk about her behind her back.
After lunch, in the security office, the security guards were all bored and started to gossip about Jossie again.
Everyone joined in on the gossip and gave harsh comments about her without feeling guilty.
Jonathan was new and wanted to blend in with everyone else. Thus, he joined in and talked about how Jossie had a perky butt and how amazing it would feel when touching it.
The crowd fell silent right after he said that.
Jonathan felt it was odd how quiet they had become. Just a second ago, they were talking about unpleasant things about her. He felt what he said was mild as compared to them.
All of a sudden, he felt something was wrong. He turned around and found Jossie standing right behind him. All she wanted was just to get a parcel from the security office. She didn’t expect to overhear something vulgar like that. Jonathan’s words angered her, and she looked as though she was ready to fight.
The sight of Jossie left Jonathan flabbergasted. All he wanted to do then was to hide.
Despite her anger, Jossie didn’t make a scene out of it. She only gave Jonathan a cold-eyed stare and walked off.
Everyone could sense that Jossie must have resented Jonathan.
The third incident was even more baffling.
Jonathan was very well-behaved this time round and was cleaning the security office.
Just then, the team leader of the Apparel Coordination Department came looking for him furiously.
Unfortunately, the team leader turned out to be Jennifer.
She asked Jonathan what he wanted from her in front of all the security guards right after she stormed into the room.
Jonathan was bewildered when he saw Jennifer. He couldn’t believe how coincidental all this was.
“Nothing,” he said innocently.
Jennifer exploded, “I can’t believe you are tailing me! I was wrong about you.”
“I wasn’t tailing you!” Jonathan wanted to tell her that this was a pure coincidence. However, even he couldn’t believe his own words.
Jennifer told Jonathan to resign and leave the place immediately.
However, this would never happen. Jonathan hadn’t planned to leave the company any time soon.
With no reaction from Jonathan, she fumed, “All right. I’m leaving since you’re not!”
Then, she went to see Yasmin to talk about her resignation.
To clear up the confusion, Yasmin asked to see Jonathan too.
The latter felt wronged. All he ever wanted was to work quietly as a security guard with no trouble. He didn’t think it would be difficult to achieve such a small wish.
In front of Yasmin, he swore that he wasn’t there for Jennifer. It was all a coincidence. Then, he turned to Jennifer and said in frustration, “You are so ungrateful, Jennifer. You wouldn’t be alive if it weren’t for me. It wasn’t easy for me to find a job. Yet, you’re getting in my way.”
“There are so many security guard positions out there. Why must you work here out of all the companies?” she argued.
With his glib tongue, Jonathan said, “That’s true. But now, I can’t leave. Because if I do, it will show that I’m guilty. All right. I promise that I will not bother you in any way. If I did, I’d get sacked immediately, and I won’t receive a single penny. What do you say?”
Unable to refute his words, Jennifer went silent.
With that, this crisis was over.
However, after everything that had happened, Jonathan became known as the star security guard of Rose Couture for being eccentric.
