Chapter 150: There’s Always Someone Better
Lucy Campbell also signed the contract, and then their hands clasped tightly together. Lucy earnestly said, "Miss Lopez, I’m entrusting you with my company."
Gina Lopez nodded firmly, "Miss Campbell, you trust me so much, I definitely won’t let you down."
They released hands and sat down again. Lucy said, "I absolutely believe in your abilities. From now on, it’s all up to you. The company is still a blank slate at the moment. I only have one project here. As for how to proceed, that’s up to you to recruit and make it happen."
When Gina first arrived, she found that apart from a few security guards, there was no one else in the company, which was completely beyond her expectations. She had thought that taking over the company, there would at least be a basic scale established, but now she realized that everything was up to her to handle. While that was certainly much more difficult, it was also a great opportunity and challenge. She immediately said, "Okay, I will have a detailed business plan ready within a couple of days for Miss Campbell to review."
Lucy shook her head, "I am returning to the Capital of SSUP tomorrow, and I won’t be coming back for a while, so you can make your own decisions on how to proceed. There’s no need to consult me."
"Alright, then I’ll go ahead and do it," replied Gina succinctly, readily agreeing.
At this time, James Brown had walked over to the window and was looking outside through the floor-to-ceiling glass. Although it wasn’t a high story, the view wasn’t that broad, but there was a small garden outside. When the window was opened, the air was exceptionally fresh.
He had heard everything the two of them had said very clearly, and it was only now that he realized that not only had Lucy given him an empty title of CEO, but she had also granted Gina such great autonomy. To him, it felt as though Lucy had just tossed in five hundred million and then washed her hands of the whole affair. In the world of business, this seemed excessively careless—if Gina wanted to, taking the money would be all too easy.
James Brown didn’t believe Gina Lopez was that kind of person, but in the face of such huge interests, whether she could maintain her integrity was something he didn’t dare to judge. He had seen too many people change due to profit; who could guarantee that Gina wouldn’t be tempted by profit in the future?
