Chapter 715 I Can't Afford Them!
"Who exactly is he?"
Emilia felt that something was unusual, but she asked herself honestly. She did not look down on Mike. She just felt that Oliver Walker's deception was a kind of harm to Katherine, so she was angry.
"He and Aiden are both famous mercenary kings! You might not know much about these things," Oliver Walker said. "But let me tell you this. He's not an ordinary security guard."
"For example, it's not an exaggeration to say that he alone can destroy the entire Black Dragon Sect!"
"This…" Emilia frowned.
Oliver Walker added, "I'm being serious. I'm not joking. According to the price in the industry, he'll be paid 100 million for each successful mission. If he were to be hired as a bodyguard, his annual salary wouldn't be less than one billion."
This wasn't an exaggeration. This was the value of a mercenary king.
Emilia's red lips moved slightly, but she wanted to say something but hesitated…
One billion!
This… Looking at her husband's expression, it seemed like he was not joking. In other words, Mike and Aiden alone would have an annual salary of 2 billion?
The total market value of her company was only a few billion!
Would they be able to afford these people to work for them?
"Mercenaries? A real mercenary?" Emilia asked. "Are they people who would do anything for money? No faith, no justice?"
That was what they said on TV! That was why she was afraid that if…
"Indeed!"
Oliver Walker did not deny it. "But you can rest assured. They are different. Mike's faith has changed. He is indeed working for me now. And Aiden, he almost died at the border just to get home! They are all serving the country now!"
He had seen countless people! Therefore, he still had this bit of confidence!
"What?" Emilia gasped. "Then I'll have to raise their wages, but… I can't afford it either!"
She didn't know if she should be happy or sad about this. She had always made a clear distinction between public and private affairs. She never squeezed the blood and sweat of the workers as her code of conduct.
However, who knew that there were two grim reapers sitting in the company? How was she going to pay them? If she really gave it to them, she would go bankrupt in less than a year!
"You don't have to worry about their salary! They are now supernumerary personnel of the special department," Oliver Walker said with a smile. "We will provide them with the corresponding treatment."
"As for them working here, it's considered earning extras. There's no need to feel any burden."
There were many capable people in the army. If they really paid according to the market price of mercenaries, how bad would that be?
A year's military expenditure was not even enough to cover a person's normal expenses. In fact, the salary of his five disciples wasn't that high either. Those who did this job were loyal to the country and the flag.
Who would join the army for money?
"That's good!"
Emilia's nervous heart finally heaved a sigh of relief.

At the same time, in the office!
"You have to think about it carefully. Our family motto is to be faithful until the end. You should know what kind of temper your father has. You can't be willful after marriage!"
After Katherine accepted Mike's apology, she began lecturing her daughter again. To be honest, if it weren't for Oliver Walker, she really wouldn't have agreed.
After all... Putting aside Mike's identity, there was no one who was worthy of their daughter.
"Mom! I've really thought it through!"
Sarah Lee went from being shy to nervous and afraid. Now, she was waiting for happiness to knock on her door.
In fact, what she liked was Mike's bravery and honesty. Among the young girls, some were materialistic, while others were realistic. Of course, there were also people who could risk their lives for love.
"Mike, you have to treat her well! Otherwise, Mr. Walker won't let you off!" Katherine turned around and said.
