Chapter 1111: Recruiting
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lucas said loudly, “Please show them in.”
Soon, the door to the general manager’s office was pushed open. Alexander, Ashley, and a noblewoman in her fifties whom Lucas had never met entered.
Alexander suppressed the excitement in his heart and immediately greeted Lucas, “Mr. Gray!”
Ashley was just as excited. The moment she saw Lucas, her heart started racing, and a touch of rosiness appeared on her face. She greeted shyly, “Lucas!”
Lucas nodded slightly at the two of them and then looked at the noblewoman behind them.
!!
Needless to say, this noblewoman was naturally Elise, the mother of Alexander and Ashley and the woman Flynn had just praised.
Elise should be 53 or 54 years old this year, but she had been living in luxury at the Steele residence for years and had taken care of her health. So she looked like she was in her forties and had a calm and stable temperament.
Elise was also sizing Lucas up carefully.
He was a tall, handsome, and extraordinary young man who exuded a faint domineering aura that only those of superior status would have. It wasn’t deliberate but rather acquired after being in an esteemed position for a long time.
Even Greg, the helmsman of the Steele family, was far inferior to him.
Elise was inwardly surprised by how extraordinary Lucas was. It was no wonder that he gained Alexander’s trust and Ashley’s romantic admiration within such a short time.
Elise originally thought that Alexander’s advice to the Steeles in front of the main residence was to plead for Lucas. But after seeing him in person, she finally realized that what her son had said was all true. The Steeles would really face a catastrophe if they offended Lucas!
The Steeles obviously couldn’t afford to offend someone like him.
Seeing his mother just sizing up Lucas quietly, Alexander quickly introduced, “Mom, this is Mr. Lucas Gray, whom I’ve mentioned to you before.”
Elise immediately smiled and said, “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Gray!”
Her voice was extremely pleasant, and her smile was neither proud nor humble, making her amiable and approachable.
“Please have a seat, Ms. Bale.”
After Lucas invited them to take a seat on the sofa, he instructed his secretary to serve some tea and coffee.
After sitting down, Ashley asked eagerly, “Lucas, why did you send someone to pick us up and bring us here?”
Both Alexander and Elise looked at Lucas, waiting for his answer.
Lucas smiled slightly. “It’s very simple. I would like to ask for your help with some matters.”
Alexander, Ashley, and Elise were stunned.
They originally thought that Lucas had brought them here because he wanted to help them, but they didn’t expect that he would ask for their help instead.
They had been kicked out by the Steeles. Even though they were highly competent, likely no one in DC would dare to hire them out of fear of offending the Steeles.
But why Lucas wasn’t afraid that the Steeles might retaliate even more intensely against him for helping them?
Although it was a great opportunity for them now that they had nothing to their names…
Seeing the hesitation in their eyes, Lucas said, “Don’t worry about giving me a reply right away. I can give you three days to think about it carefully before giving me an answer.”
After understanding that Lucas really wanted to hire the three of them, Alexander was naturally overjoyed and immediately wanted to agree.
But the moment he parted his lips to speak, he felt someone pinch his arm hard from the side.
Elise said, “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Gray. We don’t need three days to consider it. Please give us ten minutes, and we’ll give you an answer soon.”
Lucas naturally nodded. “Okay. In that case, why don’t you stay here to discuss it while Mr. Davis and I go outside?”
“Alright, thank you,” Elise said with gratitude.
Lucas quickly took Flynn out.
In the large general manager’s office, only Alexander, Ashley, and Elise were present.
“Mom, did you interrupt me just now because you don’t want to agree to Mr. Gray’s offer?” Alexander finally asked in puzzlement.
Elise said, “Would you have agreed immediately if I hadn’t stopped you?”
Alexander nodded without hesitation. “Of course! Mom, it will be our blessing to work for Mr. Gray!
“Since things have come to this, I might as well tell you some things. You know that I represented the Steeles at the land auction the day before yesterday. I ended up losing the auction for the land in the eastern suburbs, which Mr. Gray bought for 1.2 billion dollars.
“At the time, he bought it for 1.2 billion dollars without even batting an eyelid. This means that he has far more liquid funds than this, and he likely has such a massive amount of wealth that even the Steeles might not measure up to it.”

“So, after returning home that night, I sent people to investigate Mr. Gray. I discovered that although he seems to be only a worthless outcast that the Huttons expelled years ago and have no other status, there was a six-year gap missing in his information. No one knows what he did in those six years, and everyone just guessed that he joined the military.
“Later, I asked a friend to help me investigate Mr. Gray. But with his status, he couldn’t find out anything about Mr. Gray at all. All the intelligence about him during his time in the military is classified as top secret! Mom, you should know what this means.
“In addition, Mr. Gray is not only very affluent, but he’s also highly skilled in martial arts. He easily killed Trevor’s strongest expert within seconds at Club Illuma yesterday. I think even the top experts under Grandpa are no match for Mr. Gray.
“Now that someone as powerful as Mr. Gray has extended an olive branch to us and wants to get our help, don’t you think it’s a huge blessing for us?”
After hearing the praises about Lucas, Elise couldn’t help being astonished.
In particular, one of the things Alexander said made Elise’s heart skip a beat.
“Are you saying that… he had a high rank in the military?” Elise asked, her throat tensing up.
Alexander nodded solemnly. “Yes. I even suspect that Mr. Gray was among the few top powerhouses directly subordinate to one of the heads of the four borders!”
