The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 167

When Gideon heard this, his face went pale. "So, I can't work with Mr. Smith anymore? Honestly. I'm already happy. Just talking with you has earned me a few thousand, that's way better than slogging through takeout deliveries for months At that moment. Gideon bowed deeply to Lago, "Mr. Smith, I'm really grateful to you for giving me new hope!" Lago felt like he was floating with joy.

Even when Lago had his own company before, the employees were just mercenaries he couldn't rely on. But this young guy was different-he was honest, innocent, full of gratitude, and felt a need to repay kindness. Most importantly, he could help Lago make money. Lago gently lifted Gideon's arm, raising his bowed head. "Gideon, you've misunderstood me, we're just not going into the casino, but that doesn't mean we can't work together."

Gideon looked completely confused. "Mr. Smith, what do you mean...?"

Lago continued, "I really admire your skills and how you care for your family. Right now, I have several million just sitting around, enough to start a small company. Since you studied finance, why not help me manage

Pausing for a moment, Lago remembered Jessie's calculations from Modis. Gideon had faced a lot of struggles in his youth, but his luck in adulthood was bound to take off like a tidal wave, getting better and better.

Without hesitation, Lago decisively said, "No, you'll be the legal representative of my company. I'll give you more authority and dividends; as long as the company does well, you won't have to worry about your family's medical bills."

Gideon's eyes widened in disbelief, his innocent, student-like gaze filled with shock and growing joy. "Mr. Smith, are you serious? You really want to hire me?"

Lago couldn't help but chuckle at Gideon's clumsy, excited reaction, which almost made him bite his tongue. The more Gideon showed that enthusiasm, the more Lago felt confident about their success. "I believe in your abilities. I'm sure our partnership will lead this company to great wealth!"
