Chapter 98 The Lord Suffers A Trick
After Jayna and Iwan took their seats, Hannah asked a waitress for the menu. Holding the menu, she ordered some dishes in English before passing it to Jane. After Jane finished ordering, it was Jayna's turn. Looking at the delicate cuisine on the menu, Jayna didn't even know what to order for an instant since most of the dishes were strange to her. Besides, it was the first time she had dined at the most high-end French restaurant in Cleveque City.
Just as Jayna was at a loss, Iwan, who sat at her side, suddenly smiled at the waitress and ordered for her in French.
"You, you can speak French like a native speaker?" The waitress looked at Iwan in surprise.
Smiling, Iwan nodded. "Yes. I once stayed there for some time."
Noticing some subtle details in Iwan's sitting postures, the waitress was even more excited and said, "Dear sir, you must be the most distinguished guest in our country. Wish you a good time here." NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
This beautiful waitress was rather excited and even made a gift of a violin piece for free after taking their order.
After the foreign violinist finished the piece, Jane and the others were all amazed and looked at Iwan in surprise, asking, "You, why do you know so much about French cuisine?"
Iwan nodded with a smile and replied, "Well, I know something about it since I've been to France several times." As he spoke, he helped Jayna arrange the tableware in front of her. He used to be invited to parties by the royal family of the top level in France. As to whether he accepted their invitations, it depended on if he was in a good mood and available.
Looking at the surprised looks on Hannah's and Jane's faces, Jayna was also amazed first and then smiled as she realized that her husband was more than a powerhouse who was skilled at fighting. Seeing his wife like this, Iwan was left somewhat speechless, thinking, "My girl, just wait and see. I'm not going to hide anything from you, so you nned to be ready to be greeted with continuous surprises."
After that, they started the lunch, accompanied by Jane and Hannah glancing at Iwan from time to time. Then the two of them came to the conclusion that they couldn't see through Iwan no matter how hard they tried. It seemed that Iwan had so many various sides that they had different feelings of him every time they tried to observe him from another perspective.
Near the end of the meal, Jane suddenly asked Iwan, "Mr. Cliff, have you found a job?"
Iwan smiled and replied, "Not yet, but I'm going to find one. I returned only a short time ago and just finished adapting myself to the new environment." Iwan was telling the truth. He spent the past five years either fighting in External Regions against hostile forces or being on the way. At that time, he was burdened with so much that he had to force himself to be stronger all the time. So when he just returned home, he found it somewhat hard to fit in with the peaceful life which was weirdly secure for him.
Now after living with Jayna peacefully for two months, he finally adjusted to it as he buried his endless ambitions, which wouldn't be awakened until he might have a chance in the future to fight in the battlefield of External Regions along with millions of soldiers of Heaven Domain.
Jana took a sip of coffee and continued after thinking for a while, "Then Mr. Cliff, would you like to work for NAH Technology? I'm establishing our own security department with Hannah."
Hearing her words, Iwan was left speechless as he gave a weird smile and looked at Jane. "Well, Miss Cook, do you mean you want me to work for you as a security guard?" Iwan sneered and
found that the two women were so ridiculous by asking the peerless Lord of Heaven Domain to condescend to work in their small company as a security guard.
Jayna, who sat at Iwan's side, also found the idea so weird. She knew Iwan used to be a God of War in External Regions. But despite her beauty, Jayna was too innocent to understand how much power such a title meant. According to her understanding, she only thought her husband was powerful but not that formidable.
So given her knowledge of Iwan's identity, Jayna gave a weird look as she looked at Jana, shaking her head and saying, "Jane, thanks for you offer. But Iwan hasn't decided on his future career."
Aware that Jayna had some misunderstanding, Jane hurriedly said to her, "Jayna, don't mistake me. We won't let him work as a security guard but the managing director of the security department in the company. He'll be of the same rank as me, offered an annual salary of several hundred thousand dollars."
"A managing director will be offered such a high salary?" Jayna asked excitedly, thinking it was much higher than her monthly basic salary of less than three thousand dollars. What was more, this was a hard-won job.
Smiling, Jane nodded. "Of course. Or do you think I was tricking you into it?"
At this time, Hannah also looked at Iwan, saying earnestly, "Mr. Cliff, I have the same idea as Jane. Would you like to help us?"
Given Hannah's earnest invitation, Jayna also said to Iwan, "Iwan, what do you think of it? What about having a try? After all, staying at home all the time is bad for you."
Iwan was speechless as he heard his wife's silly idea. He was sure that Jayna must have been tempted by the annual salary. Thinking of this, he was so helpless. Although he had no idea how
much money he had exactly, he knew his wealth was enormous enough to support the family. Iwan even had the impulse to spank Jayna but gave up after thinking for a while since he didn't have the heart to do so to such a beautiful wife.
So Iwan said to Hannah helplessly, "Miss Bass, thanks for your offer, but I believe there must be numerous powerhouses who are glad to work for you given that you have the Bass family which ranks second in Cleveque City to back you up. So stop joking with me by saying you need my help."
Hannah hurriedly shook her head. "It's not the case. I don't trust those powerhouses from the Bass family. As you know, a big family tends to be full of schemes, so I won't trust them."
Iwan was amused as he looked at Hannah. "It will be funny if you tell me that I'm trustworthy. After all, we just met for the first time."
Unexpectely, Hannah nodded seriously. "Mr. Cliff, I do trust you given that you're willing to sacrifice everything for Jayna, even having retired from the Military Headquarters for her. I'll appreciate your help if you join us. I indeed need your help since I have no friends in Cleveque City other than Jane and Jayna. I can offer you a higher salary as long as you agree to join us, okay?"
At this time, Jayna also shook Iwan's arm, saying, "Iwan, just agree on it since Hannah and Jane is really having a hard time running a newly started company."
Once again, Iwan was left speechless and helpless and didn't even know what to do with his gorgeous wife who was making his situation difficult. Anyway, she was his beloved woman.
Then Iwan said to Jane and Hannah with a helpless smile, "You've gotten this plan in advance, right? But I'm wondering why you both are so confident of my power. What if I can't even be a rival to a bodyguard of the Bass family?"
Hearign Iwan's question, Jane and Hannah smiled and exchanged tacit glances. The two of them were bound to be confident of Iwan's power. After all, given Jane's meeting with Warrior No.1 that night, she felt that she wasn't a rival to him over time. So Jane was sure that Iwan must be formidable enough to have such a powerful subordiante as Warrior No.1. According to Jane's judgment, Iwan must be at least at the top of a half-level God of War and had a lot of experience in fighting in the battlefield of External Regions. So Jane thought Iwan must be much more powerful than her.
Although Jane thought highly of Iwan's power, she never expected him to be a powerhouse of God of War. She didn't believe such a God of War from Dragon Kingdom who got his title in External Regions would retire to reduce himself to returning and leading a normal life. After all, the God of War in Cleveque City, Max, was already in charge of most authorities in this city despite its less power than the God of War in External Regions. That was why she only graded Iwan as a powerhouse who was at the top of level below God of War.
This was the furthest where Jane's analysis could go given her intelligence.
Iwan fell silent. He had been aware of something from the two women's eyes. It should be Warrior No.1 who happened to expose himself in front of them, so they were confident of Iwan's power considering that.
But he couldn't work for the Bass family's group, or he was afraid that Owen would be scared to death if he showed up in front of Owen. For an instant, he was so helpless as he was aware of the expectant gazes of the two women, as well as his incredibly gorgeous wife.
Much later on, Iwan had to compromise, saying to Jane and Hannah, "Are you sure you need my help?"
The two of them nodded excitedly. "Of course. Mr. Cliff, does it mean you've promised us?"
The corners of Iwan's mouth twitched as he nodded under Jayna's expectant gaze. "Fine. But the salary you offered is too low for me."
After saying so, Iwan paused before adding, "Well, let's talk about that later. I can work for you for a month first and let's leave other issues to be decided a month later."
Hearing his words, Jane smiled faintly as she stirred her coffee with an iron spoon. "Well, are you requesting a higher salary? Mr. Cliff, are you a powerhouse of God of War in External Regions? If so, you do deserve a higher salary. But if not, the salary we offered is decent enough even for a powerhouse at the top of half-level God of War." At this time, Jane was somewhat annoyed since Iwan was dissatisfied with the salary although he had promised. She felt Iwan was asking too much as a powerhouse of no more than half-level God of War from her perspective.
But when Jane finished speaking, Jayna smiled and looked smug about that only she knew her husband was God of War. But she tried to keep a low profile by keeping it a secret.
As for Iwan, he also smiled and didn't even bother to speak. He realized that the reason why Hannah and Jane gave this treat was to aim at him. Jayna might know it in advance but still worked with the two of them to deal with him.
At this time, Iwan sighed as he looked at his innocent wife who lowered her head with a smile at his side, thinking, "No wonder you worked so hard in bed last night. It turns out you were guilty."
Iwan looked up at the ceiling and decided to bother to work for one month. Since he already began to reveal his second identity in front of Jayna, he decided to make Jayna the president of Morgan Group when she made some achievements a month later. At that time, it would be time for her to know how wealthy her husband was and if he deserved a salary of several hundred thousand dollars. He was so helpless to see her help others deal with him.
