章 359: You Actually DO Like Me!

"You want to put me in charge of what?" Aiden asked in disbelief.

Aaron had called him into his office to discuss the plans to redo all of the cybersecurity for Hale Investments and possibly develop additional software to sell to other high-security institutions. Now the kid looked like he was about to go into shock.

A conversation they had over a year ago popped into his head. Aiden thought he didn't trust him. It made sense that he would be thrown off with this sudden offer that proved Aaron thought highly of him. Did he really criticize Aiden that much?

He sighed. He didn't want the kid to get an overinflated ego—he was always going on about being Aaron's favorite—but if he didn't properly express his appreciation at some point, Aiden might get headhunted by someone else or choose to start his own business. He didn't want that to happen.
