Gomez looked at Lance with an expression full of "it can't be this way," but behind this emotion, there was also a sadness of "why is it this way."
Because he vaguely knew, Lance was right.
He was too wealthy.
"I have a vivid memory of your gold lighter, Gomez."
"I know you far better than I know Diego, but even if I don't know him well, I know that in his eyes, the entire country is his personal wealth."
"Including you."
"Do you know why Casia can earn his trust, but you cannot?"
"That's the issue here!"
Lance tapped his finger on the table, "Casia is very poor, even though he became the Deputy Minister of Commerce, holding great power, he remains very poor."
"I heard him say before that he and his family are still cramped in a small house because he doesn't have the money to buy a bigger one."
"That's why Diego trusts him, believing he would be a useful tool."
