Chapter 134 - Annual Salary

"Peter, let's go. Maybe Professor Curt still needs to talk to you?" Harry pulled the oblivious Peter away.

Didn't you hear her call you Parker?

She didn't even look at you properly.

Harry knew how formidable his uncle was.

In this eorld, there are only two kinds of men: Aaron, and everyone else.

The path he has walked can absolutely not tolerate anyone else passing through.

No woman, after being with Aaron, could look at other men properly again.

Peter was a bit reluctant. He wanted to show more of his masculine prowess and ability in front of Mary. But Harry covered his face and pulled him away.

"What's wrong, Harry?" Peter was very confused.

Harry rubbed his forehead and said, "Don't you think Mary has something on her mind? When a woman is deep in thought, never disturb her. Otherwise, she might distance herself from you because of it."

Peter nodded at the words.

That makes sense.

He glanced at Mary again.

He said hesitantly, "Harry, Mary seems to be looking at Mr. Aaron."

You finally realized?

Harry secretly shook his head and said truthfully, "After all, no woman can refuse uncle. His talent, wealth, and appearance are enough to make any woman crazy."

Peter felt a little sad at the words.

Alright, compared to Aaron, he was still a loser.

He really hoped he could also become the center of attention.

"By the way, Harry, why do I feel like you're very strong?"

This wasn't the first time Peter had felt this way. At school, Harry had once knocked out the school bully with one punch and beaten up seven or eight people by himself.

Harry shrugged. "Because I have a good uncle."

He didn't state the reason. Without Aaron's permission, it was best not to tell outsiders about such matters.—

Due to Aaron's arrival, Gwen left the exhibition early. She no longer needed to stay there to maintain order, because there was no need at all.

Aaron took her back to the office.

Hill looked up, her eyes lighting up when she saw Gwen.

But then she muttered to herself, "Another girl is going to be in trouble."

"This is my other work secretary, her name is Maria Hill. She used to work in a certain government department."

"This is Gwen Stacy, a student at Empire State University, a very capable genius."

Aaron briefly introduced the two.

Gwen proactively shook hands with Hill.

"Due to certain reasons, there's a backlog of personnel arrangements within the Corporation. You need to get into work mode as soon as possible, can you do that?"

Gwen glanced at the mountain of documents and didn't feel intimidated. Instead, she was eager to try and ready to tackle a big project.

"No problem, boss, but the school..."

"Don't worry, I'll have Norman communicate with them. From now on, you'll handle documents with Maria. If you don't understand anything, just ask her."

(T/N: Hill will now be referred to by her first name, Maria.)

Aaron, with a single sentence, threw the troublesome task of training someone to Maria.

The latter rolled her eyes.

Boss, have you forgotten? I've only been with the company for one day.

To be honest, I'm also new, and I also need someone to train me.

And you're making a new person who's been here for one day train another new person.

Gosh, this is too outrageous, unheard of.

Although Maria kept complaining internally, she still nodded. "Leave it to me, boss. I'm short-handed here. If you have any other candidates, please be sure to give them to me."

Regardless, Maria still hoped to have more assistants.

Don't know how? No problem, a little training and they'll get the hang of it.

These words also had another meaning: Boss, when are you calling Felicia, the secretary, back? The two of us are not enough.

Aaron simply pretended not to hear. "Then I'll leave it to you two. How about this? Given the special circumstances, you'll be converted from interns to full-time employees. All salaries and benefits will be paid according to official employee standards, with an initial annual salary of five million, plus various year-end bonuses and so on. How does that sound?"

Maria instantly perked up. "No problem."

Five million US dollars is no small sum. Even as the Deputy Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., her combined salary and benefits didn't amount to that much.

This wasn't just a secretary, it was a professional manager.

However, to some extent, what they had to do might be even more important than the work of a professional manager.

Thinking about it that way, it seemed fine.

Of course, this was also because Aaron didn't treat money like money and wasn't short on it.

Otherwise, even Tony would shout about squandering money if he heard this.

Gwen was stunned by the sudden surprise.

Five million annual salary? Since when was a secretary's salary calculated annually? Was this really a secretary?

Gwen suddenly felt the money was too hot to handle.

"Boss, I'm afraid I don't have that capability."

Aaron shook his head. "Gwen, if I say you have the capability, you have the capability."

"All my secretaries are treated equally. Do you want them to take a pay cut because of your personal issues?"

Gwen immediately fell silent upon hearing this.

But inwardly, she was thinking that she must work hard to earn as much money as possible for Aaron.

But as a secretary, did she have that ability?

Maria pulled Gwen away. Although she wasn't overly enthusiastic about money, if there was money to be earned, why refuse it?

Moreover, this job was actually not easy.

Aaron nodded in satisfaction and left upon seeing the situation.

He glanced at the time. He had already been working for over an hour.

The morning clock-in period was over, and now it was personal leisure time.

Just then, Felicia called, saying she wanted to take Savannah and Nina to an amusement park.

Aaron thought about it.

Since he had time in the afternoon, he decided to personally take them out to play.

Including Jean, the group of five headed to the seaside amusement park on Coney Island in Brooklyn District.

The five of them happily played all afternoon, deliberately refraining from using their abilities.

Midway through, the ferris wheel at the amusement park malfunctioned, and Jean used Telekinesis to rescue a child trapped on it.

Thankfully, no one noticed their actions. Savannah and Nina expressed their praise for Jean's righteous deed and bestowed upon her the blessing of the Light Elves.

Jean felt more relaxed in mind and body, and physically more pleasant. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but Jean felt her entire brain relax considerably.

Aaron was surprised and glanced at Savannah upon seeing this.

"Brother-in-law, what's wrong?" Savannah blinked.

Suddenly, she noticed a similar ray of light appearing in Aaron's hand.

Savannah and Nina simultaneously widened their eyes.

"Bro... Brother-in-law! How are you able to do that?"

"Maybe I just have strong learning capabilities?" Aaron smiled.

Theoretically, he possessed all the capabilities and characteristics of Savannah and Nina, so naturally, he could also bestow blessings.
