The Luxury of Discount King novel Chapter 39

Ashley also finished the race. After stopping the treadmill, she gasped to recharge. After half a minute, she came and said to Conrad, "You're awesome. It's a pity you are not an athlete."

"I'm not interested in being an athlete. Not everyone who is fit will be an athlete." Conrad said.

"You're right," Ashley extended her hand, "I am Ashley Shawn."

"Conrad Porter."

Conrad shook her hand, thinking to himself that he had known her name. She was famous here.

"Would you like to get a drink with me?"

Both of them had sweated a lot and were thirsty. So, Ashley pointed to the window and spoke.

"Sure."

Conrad and Ashley came to the window. As a gentleman, Conrad paid for Ashley's iced lemon juice. He bought a bottle of mineral water, which could quench his thirst after exercise.

"So, what exactly do you want from me?" Conrad took the initiative to ask. A beautiful woman like her would not compete with him for no reason.

"You're smart. Then, I'll be straightforward."

Ashley suddenly lowered her voice, and approached him and said, "I want to hire you to be my bodyguard."

After she got close, Conrad could clearly feel her good figure and the fragrance of her body, which was very nice. In general, people should smell of sweat after exercising and sweating. But Ashley was the exception. Conrad could not help but sigh. Maybe the ancient fragrant princess was real.

Although Ashley was beautiful, Conrad had never considered to be a bodyguard. He did not need money and did not have to be the bodyguard to make money.

"Sorry, I have no such intention. I am just strong and have not been professionally trained. You can hire a professional bodyguard." Conrad graciously declined.

Ashley shook her head slowly and said, "Those professional bodyguards are too ugly and old."

Conrad was speechless and wandered if she was picking a bodyguard or a boyfriend. But on second thought, was it an affirmation of him? When he thought of this, Conrad was a little happy!

"I am willing to help but unable to do so about this. I'm a bit busy and don't have time to be a bodyguard." Conrad said.

"Forget it then." Ashley was a little unhappy and drank juice alone.

"Are you in any trouble? If it's convenient, you can tell me and I will help you." Conrad asked kindly.

Ashley examined Conrad for a while. She could tell from his eyes that he was honest and was not like those who looked at her with evil intentions. So, she whispered, "I met a pervert who always followed me."

Conrad nodded and understood. Ashley had such appearance and figure. Even he wanted to see her more. It was normal for her to meet a few men with evil intentions.

"If it's just a pervert, I can help you out." Conrad decided to do a good thing, so that the girl would not be harassed and even in danger.

"Really?" Ashley was very happy, "You are so strong that you can definitely do it. Please help me beat him up and take his phone. He has taken a lot of my photos. If something happens, I will bear all your losses."

"No need. I am just going to teach a bad guy a lesson. Nothing big will happen. Does he dare to call the police? Then he will be in jail first."

Conrad smiled and clinked his mineral water bottle against Ashley's to celebrate the cooperation.

They then left the Mount Fitness Center.

Ashley changed into casual clothes. She seemed to be intentionally hiding her good figure. She was wearing loose clothes to hide her curved figure. This was also a way for Ashley to protect herself. Not every girl liked to be stared at by men when she walked in the street.

"He always follows me after I work out. So, I'll go out first later. If you see a man who was about 5'7'' tall and 35 years old with a beard behind me, that's him."

After they had a discussion, Ashley walked in the street alone with her backpack, while Conrad hid in a corner and stared behind Ashley.

It was dusk now. The afterglow of the setting sun stretched Ashley's shadow, adding a different beauty to her. When she walked in the street, she was eye-catching.

Conrad became serious because he did see a man sneaking behind Ashley. His appearance was very similar to what Ashley described.

"That's him!"

Men knew men best. Conrad went over to quietly observe, finding that this man had a beard and behaved obscenely. He stared at Ashley's buttocks and took out his cell phone to take photos. He must be the stalker.

Conrad suddenly patted his shoulder. The man was startled. When he turned his head and saw that it was a man, he was annoyed and asked, "What are you doing?"

"You should know well what I am doing." Conrad sneered, "Why are you always following Ashley?"

"I'm not following her! The streets are so wide. I can go wherever I want!" the man denied.

Conrad raised his eyebrows, "Really? Since you have a clear conscience, then let's go to the police station!"

For people who committed crimes, they feared the police station most. As soon as Conrad asked him to go to the police station, the man panicked and was about to turn to run away.

However, he forgot that Conrad's hand was still on his shoulder. Conrad pressed his hand hard and pinched the man's shoulder blades. The man couldn't move at all.
