Chapter 1: An Ordinary Security Guard

"Mr. Hunter, what do you think are your advantages compared to other candidates?" asked the beautiful female interviewer Pepper Potts, looking at the handsome man in front of her.

"Just call me Sean, um... I think my advantage should be described as 'big and good at sex'~" Sean replied with a smirk on his face.

"..." Pepper's face was dark, thinking what a weird answer this was.

"Hahaha, don't get me wrong, I mean rich experience, strong body and serious and responsible attitude." Sean explained with a smile.

"..." Pepper was a little speechless in his heart, the guy in front of him was really a bit confusing.

"I noticed that it was written on your resume that you were a 3A-level bodyguard who specialized in protecting important people?" Pepper continued to ask.

"Yes." Sean nodded.

"Stark Group also cooperates with major bodyguard companies. Judging from your resume, why don't you choose to apply for our bodyguard position, but come to apply for security?" Pepper asked puzzledly.

"As you can see, because I am as handsome as the faces of most male readers, I have had enough of the harassment from employers in my previous work experience (PS: both men and women), so now I just want to be an ordinary security guard." Sean shrugged helplessly.

"..."

Pepper Potts looked at the man in front of her and fell into silence again. It was the first time she heard such a reason. She didn't expect that she would meet such a top-notch person when she went from the president's office to the human resources department to participate in a recruitment interview on a whim. Although this person is very handsome, there is no need to be so narcissistic, right?

However, his resume is really something. As a former 3A-level bodyguard, no matter what kind of task, the completion rate is 100%, the employer's praise rate is 100%, and the human resources department has verified the authenticity of the content of this form.

So Pepper thought about it. It's just a security guard anyway. Why not spend a little money to hire such an experienced talent?

Just when she was about to formally issue the employment notice to Sean, who was sitting upright in a suit, her phone rang.

"Excuse me, I need to take a call first."

"Of course, go ahead~" Sean smiled professionally and raised his hand to indicate that he didn't care.

Just as Pepper walked out of the conference room to answer the phone, Sean listened to the conversation on Pepper's phone outside and couldn't help but frowned slightly, thinking: Is it such a coincidence? It happened at this time?

Sean in the conference room turned his head and looked at the door of the conference room, as if he saw Pepper's anxious face outside through the door.

Outside the door.

After Pepper answered the phone, she learned that Tony's convoy was attacked. She first had an unbelievable expression on her face, and then she looked around and couldn't help covering her mouth with her hand to prevent her emotions from collapsing too much.

The person who called her was her boss, Tony Stark's friend, James Rhodes, a colonel in the US Air Force.

"Pepper? Pepper?"

Hearing Rhodes's shouting in the receiver of the mobile phone, the emotional Pepper came back to her senses.

"Oh my God, how could this happen? Rod, aren't you with him? How is Tony? What's his situation now?"

Hearing Pepper's series of questions, Rod on the other end of the phone could only say: "I can't tell you the specific situation now, but Tony was not found at the scene of the exchange of fire, so the military is now actively looking for him. You must stabilize the Stark Group first, and be careful not to let the news spread widely. Even if the news is spread, don't let public opinion ferment. Do you understand?"

"Okay..." Hearing the news that Tony's life and death are uncertain, Pepper's answer can't help but have a hint of tears.

"Hey~Pepper, calm down, listen, I will definitely bring Tony back safely, I promise."

After Rod hung up the phone, Pepper was at a loss for a few seconds, and then quickly sorted out her emotions.

She then called the head of the human resources department, ready to explain the interview just now and then quickly deal with the more important business of the group.

But she suddenly thought of the resume just now, which clearly stated: Sean Hunter not only has rich experience in security and escort, but also can easily infiltrate and rescue targets. He has never failed, and his employers have always rated him with five-star praise.

The HR manager who came over trotted over and waited anxiously for Pepper's instructions. He didn't know what happened to the goddess in front of him today. When his leader told him that Pepper Potts, the personal secretary of the group's big boss Tony Stark, was going to the HR department to participate in recruitment, he went crazy.

Although Pepper's position is only the boss's personal secretary, her level is high. Have you ever seen anyone who can freely enter and leave the boss's mansion and take care of the boss's life and work arrangements?

Maybe his leader has a backer behind him and can ignore Pepper, but he dare not. If the little girl tells the boss something, who will support his family of eight?

While the HR manager was struggling with his inner struggle, Pepper had already made up her mind. She was a strong-willed woman, and she would do what she decided to do. So she waved away the HR manager who was looking down on her, sorted out her emotions, turned around and pushed the door into the meeting room.

"Mr. Hunter, our group has already understood your situation very well. With your personal ability, you are more than qualified for the position of security..."

Pepper walked towards the interviewer's seat while calmly speaking to Sean who was sitting opposite her.

"But?" Sean looked at Pepper and said the turn she wanted to say later.

Hearing Sean's interruption, Pepper did not feel any dissatisfaction. After she sat down, she looked at Sean and continued: "I have a private commission and want to ask you for help."

Sean heard this familiar opening remark and thought of his previous employers. He couldn't help rolling his eyes, but he knew that Pepper was not talking about that.

"Let me make it clear first, I sell my art but not my body."

WTF?

Pepper, who was sitting opposite, looked at Sean with a puzzled look. What are you thinking about, brother?

But she still sorted out her words and made a final confirmation to Sean.

"Mr. Hunter, if there is a person who is kidnapped by terrorists in Afghanistan, can you rescue him?"

Hearing Pepper's question, Sean did not answer, but tapped the table with his hands.

The meeting room was very quiet. Pepper looked at Sean seriously, waiting for his answer.

"Do you have specific information about the mission?" Sean asked.

"I can ask someone to send it to you." Pepper answered immediately after hearing Sean's voice.

"Mission reward?"

"Good to negotiate!"

"Well, then I only have one additional request."
