What's Your Decision?

Scarlet went to one of the fridge available within the gym and took a cold drink. After that, she continued relaxing within the gym, completely ignoring the crowd that was looking towards them.

The only thing that she wanted at the moment was to recover. At the same time, she could not help but think about her cousin Sylvia. Every time that she fought against Sylvia, she would always lose. At this moment, she was thinking, was it possible that Jaden could beat Sylvia?

She was not really sure about the capabilities that Jaden possessed, but even then, she believed that he was extremely skilled. At this moment, she understood the 'reason' why her parents had decided to hire him as her bodyguard.

Even though she understood the reason why her parents had decided to take Jaden to become her bodyguard, that did not imply that she was willing to have a bodyguard. She was a person that liked freedom, not one that liked a strict life where she would be followed by her bodyguard wherever she goes.

To say the least, her impression of Jaden had improved by quite a good margin. But even then, she was definitely not happy about his attitude. He was completely different from the other bodyguards that were always subservient to her.

Deciding not to think much about it, he decided to rest a little more before leaving this place and going back home. Of course, she could have gone to clean up in the area designated for the females within the gym, but she did not like that area. Instead, she planned to go back home to do that.

In any case, the plans that she was having for tonight would definitely have to be forgotten for now. With Jaden following her, it was impossible for her to be able to do what she was doing before. So, she could only hope that somehow, Jaden would decide to not work anymore.

Jaden on the other hand had not gotten tired even after sparring with Scarlet for a long time. It might look like he was using a lot of strength and speed when dealing with Scarlet, but in actual sense, he was just being casual.

It was also at this moment that Jaden understood the fact that intermediate combat skills were definitely not to be underestimated. Nevertheless, he had not been able to completely exhibit his full strength not only because Scarlet could not handle it, but instead, even his body could not do the same.

As for the crowd that was observing, Jaden did not pay them much attention. Of course, he had also realized that Lucas had come over. The moment that the guy came over, he looked at him with a hint of killing intent.

At that moment, Jaden immediately understood that this guy was definitely planning something. But even then, he believed that in the face of strength, it was definitely impossible for schemes to succeed.

The only problem here was the fact that he could not handle bullets currently. But if it was just a one-on-one fight, that was something that he could easily handle. In fact, if that group of gangsters came to attack once again, he would be able to deal with them more than three times faster than before.

After Scarlet rested for more than 20 minutes, she finally got up and left the gym. Jaden followed behind her without saying a word. The crowd on the other hand made a way for them to go through, before they began chattering once again the moment that the two of them had left.

At this moment, they understood that it was definitely impossible for the two of them to have any form of argument. After all, from the way that they were leaving, it was clear that they were going to the same destination once again.

If they were arguing with each other in such a way that they ended up fighting, they would definitely not be walking together, right?

At the same time, they could not help but wonder who Jaden was. After all, for the majority of the people here, this was the first time that they were seeing Jaden. In fact, a few of Jaden's classmates were among the crowd. But only a few people had seen Jaden, considering that he had not been too much outstanding within the class during the lecture.

Among the crowd, Mason was present. But at this moment, he did not try to approach Jaden at all. The reason behind that was none other than the fact that Scarlet was present. He was among those that were completely terrified by Scarlet.

But at this moment, he could not help but wonder about Jaden's identity. It might be true that he did not try to approach Scarlet, but even then, that did not imply that he did not possess much information about Scarlet.

In fact, he even understood Scarlet's background. Although he could not clearly tell her position, but she was surely related to the Johnsons. He was not that much sure about the relationship between Scarlet and the Johnsons, but even then, he believed that she was part of the family.

At the end of the day, even here in school, she used the name Scarlett Johnson. So, what he was not sure about was if she was part of the main family, or if she was just part of the branch.

Jaden and Scarlet did not know much about what the crowd was thinking, and neither did they care about what they were chattering about. They left the area, went to the area where Scarlet had parked her Ferrari f8 spider.

Scarlet got into the car, Jaden followed and entered into the passenger seat. Scarlet did not say anything, and immediately began driving out of the school.

With the two of them getting into the same car, rumors had already begun flying again. This was to be expected considering that Jaden was the only man who had ever gotten into Scarlet's vehicle. But nevertheless, the majority of them were wondering what Lucas was going to do about this issue.

It took more than 30 minutes for Scarlet to be able to drive back to the Johnson's mansion. Along the way, the two of them remained silent with their own thoughts.

The moment that they arrived, as usual, the gate was opened without much of questioning. After the two of them alighted, Scarlet immediately headed to the main mansion, while Jaden headed towards his living quarters.

The moment that he got into the room, he decided to relax. At the same time, he could not help but wonder when he was going to be allowed to go out. He had to go back and make a few arrangements, considering that he had not expected that he was going to remain here after coming over.

On the other hand, after Scarlet entered into the living room, she found that her parents were currently discussing something. She did not care about that and immediately went ahead and vented about the attack.

When her parents told her that they already knew about it, she was not surprised considering that it was normal for them to be able to find something like that after the gangsters had been taken to the police station.

But even then, at this moment, she was completely exasperated about the fact that she had been attacked. This was the first time that she was being attacked like that, and he did not like it one bit.

According to her thought process, if she was continuously attacked, that implied that it would be giving a good reason to her parents to continue having a bodyguard staying by her side. So, it was good if they dealt with the reason why she was attacked as soon as possible, so that no more attacks would be launched at her.

Clifford and Lynette could not help but feel a little helpless. After all, it was not as if they did not want to deal with the issue, it was just that the Williams were going all out. It was as if they did not care about the losses that they were experiencing.

Due to the fact that they were going all out, many people that wanted to gain something from the Williams before they collapsed decided to help them out. In this way, they would be able to find something from the Johnsons after they had been dealt with by the Williams, before turning and dealing with the Williams after they were completely weakened in the battle between the two families.

Of course, Clifford and Lynette believed that there was something that the Williams were depending on. Otherwise, it was impossible for them to be attacking them like this without caring about the losses.

"Can you call Jaden over for me?" Clifford asked Scarlet after a moment of contemplation.

Even though Scarlet was not sure about why she was asked to call Jaden, she followed the instruction nevertheless. She went to Jaden's room and called him. After that, she immediately went to the gym, to look for Sylvia. She was wondering how much she had improved after sparring with Jaden today.

Jaden on the other hand entered into the living room. The moment that he arrived, Clifford asked him to sit down. A moment of silence reigned in the room before Clifford finally began speaking.

"Jaden, I do believe that you have already experienced what I was telling you before. The job itself is quite risky, and you might lose your life while on duty. So, I would like to ask, are you willing to continue with the job or would you like to quit?" Clifford asked with a serious tone.
