Alex frowned. âI havenât disclosed why I came here yet, and you are bent on kicking me out already?â A
round faced security guard replied, âWhat else could you be up to? I have seen many people like you,
arenât
you the security guard from the parking lot located opposite our salon?
Is it too hot outside, so you are here to
scrounge for the free air conditioning? Are you even worthy to do so? Look at the expensive marbles
inside, what if you soiled them, can you afford to pay for it?â
âI did not come to cool myself down.â
âThen, are you here to apply for the position of security guard? I am sorry, our security guards have
high
standards. Poor bumpkin s like you are not qualified for the job. Hurry and get out of my sight as far
away as
possible, you are such an eyesore.â The other guard deeply agreed and chimed in, âThis bumpkin right
here must be envious of us so he also wants to apply to be a security guard here.
Our security guards at City Salon are well- treated. Other than high
salaries and great benefits, we are also blessed with the opportunity to see beautiful ladies every day.
Every
beauty who walks in and out of our salon is a rich and respectable person. Just imagine if a Miss
Perfect falls
for us someday, we will be set for life⦠Sadly, bumpkins like you have no chance with such an
opportunity.
Begone, why are you still here? Are you looking for a beating?â Alex scowled after hearing himself
being called a bumpkin over and over. âSo you guys are getting all stuck up after working as security
guards here? Whoâs your supervisor? I would
like to ask him how he even manages his job, can all kinds of garbage be hired as security guards
here? Could
it be that you are relatives?â
âDamn it!â
Infuriated, the security guards glared at Alex with bulging eyes. âWhat are you talking about, you little
jerk! Do you think you can see our supervisor whenever you wish? Do
you think heâs your father?â
âCome here and get down on your damn knees! Or leave two of your teeth behind!â Alex gently shook
his head. With these men working as security guards, they were bound to be trouble for
City Salon.
He would have let it slide if he werenât the owner of the establishment
However, as the current legitimate owner of City Salon, Alex would be held responsible if anything went
wrong at the salon. So, he couldnât just watch and do nothing. âYou both are rotten characters. You do
not deserve to work here as security guards. I hereby proclaim, you
both fired from your job.â
Upon hearing Alexâs statement, both security guards instantly burst into laughter. âFunny how we seem
to frequently stumble upon wacky characters this year.â
âYep, I think the heat must have done him dirty, he even has meningitis and starts having
hallucinations. Who
does he think he is, the boss of City Salon?â Alex nodded and said with an expressionless face,
âIndeed, I atn your boss.â
âHahaha!â
They guffawed again, they almost couldnât straighten up.
âOh my, Iâm out of breath.â
âHold on, hold on, I think he must have gone cuckooâ¦â Alex started to feel anger boiling in his body. In
his
eyes, such small fries like them were just like ants and he would usually ignore them. Yet, he did not
expect
how hurtful they could be with their words. It was truly infuriating.
A primly dressed lady approached them at that moment. With an umbrella in hand, she wore a sun hat
and a
pair of sunglasses. âWhat is going on here?
âWho let you make a racket here? What do you think this place is? Do you want to lose your job?
Begone if
you donât want to work here anymore! We have more than enough people to fill the positions, you are
not as
important as you think you are.
Such nonsense!â
It was a crisp and imposing voice but it felt a little too mean. The expression on both the security
guardsâ faces abruptly changed. Trembling in fear, they hurriedly greeted
the lady, âMiss Nancy!â One of them pointed at Alex and said, âItâs all because of this lunatic, Miss
Nancy. He came to make a ruckus
here, and thought himself as the owner of the salon.
It went a little out of hand because we tried to stop him
from entering and harassing our customers.â
âOohâ¦â The lady immediately put away her umbrella and looked toward Alex. âIf heâs here to make
ruckus, then what
are you waiting for? Give him a beating and throw him out.â Alex turned around and looked at her right
at the moment.
The lady, having clearly seen his face, reeled back in surprise.
âYou are⦠Alex Rockefeller?â Alex finally saw the face hidden behind the pair of sunglasses. Surprised
as well, he said, âHannah Nancy.â She was his high school classmate, the prettiest girl in his class.
If he remembered correctly, Hannah hailed from a mediocre background. Her parents were both
working-class
citizens. Compared to Alex, who was already the son of a multi-billionaire at the time⦠Well, there
could be
no comparison at all. However, she possessed an attractive face, enamoring countless boys together
with her enchanting eyes back
then.
