Believe me, I know that one firsthand. I was, in fact, very recently submitted to exactly that same scenario. If not for the assistance of a... very dear friend and Iron Man, I would very likely be dead right now.
My company, Stark Industries, was originally a weapons manufacturer. After I discovered that weapons I created were being sold under the table to the very people I created them to fight, I attempted to shut down that portion of my company. In response, my friend and partner at my company tried to have me killed by stopping my heart - the second time he had done so in a month. I was able to keep my heart going while Iron Man stopped my partner and ended the issue, permanently.
Since then, I've been working to redeem myself for the... errors of my ways and my long-held ignorance - working with you and others like you to help ensure that innocents aren't harmed by my creations being my main effort.
I know that my story doesn't exactly help too much with trust, but I hope it lets you know where I'm coming from.

Your bodyguard, huh?
... Well, it depends if we can trust you or not.

And what can I do to help in trust issues then, Ms. Harlequin?

I 'unno. Just this world is full of people who will do the whole "I'm your friend" thing and double cross you.
