The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 448

"Right, you're too narcissistic. I must be overthinking." Willow nodded.

Caspian and Mia had never met before, so there was no way they could have a connection.

Seeing Willow drop the topic, Caspian breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, Landon approached, holding two checks. "Ms. Stewart, Mr. Lynch, this is the 200 million dollars Ginger tried to bribe me with."

200 million dollars was indeed a big temptation, but Landon wouldn't dare accept that.

"Well done, Landon. You resisted the temptation," praised Caspian.

This marketing manager was not bad.

"Ms. Stewart is so good to me. How could I do such a thing?" Landon smiled.

He meant what he said. Willow treated the employees well.

On a side note, he also feared Caspian, given the numerous rumors about him in Southlake City. He was afraid that Caspian might take action against him.

"Consider this money as a reward for resisting temptation," Caspian said, pointing at the check.

"What …" Landon was taken aback.

He hadn't expected Caspian to be so generous. What had he done to deserve this? Was Caspian testing him?

"Take it. Southlake Corporation won't mistreat loyal employees. Since you refused the bribe and didn't betray the company, you deserve this reward," Caspian said calmly.

Willow nodded in agreement.

For a corporation, 200 million dollars was nothing. But if Landon had truly betrayed them, the losses would have been more than the mentioned amount.

"Thank you, Mr. Lynch! Thank you, Ms. Stewart! I'll do my best to repay your trust."

Landon was so excited that he was overwhelmed and speechless.

"Don't get too excited yet. I have another task for you," Caspian said.

"What is it?" Landon asked nervously.

"Southlake Corporation is about to expand its business to the north. As the marketing manager, you need to lead the way. Of course, there will be risks.

"If you're willing to do this, take the 200 million dollars. If not, it's fine. You'll still remain as the marketing manager," Caspian explained, looking directly at Landon.

Caspian wasn't one to use forceful methods. The decision rested entirely on Landon. If he lacked confidence, Caspian wouldn't force him.

"I'll do my best to help Southlake Corporation open up the North Diatoran's market," Landon replied with determination.

200 million dollars was an amount most people couldn't earn in several lifetimes.

"Well, then. Prepare yourself. Be ready to set off at any time," Caspian said with a smile.

"Understood."

Landon took the check and left the office.

Willow seemed contemplative as he watched him leave.

"Hubby, can we trust Landon?" Willow asked with concern.

Expanding business into another group's territory wasn't an easy task.

The first step was always difficult. If that didn't go smoothly, every step afterward would be very challenging.

"Don't worry. Since Landon can resist the temptation, it means he's trustworthy," Caspian replied as he pinched Willow's rosy cheeks.

Hearing that, Willow nodded.

She initially considered sending Miranda to open up the northern market.
