Chapter 387: Reason

Chapter 387: Reason

Oscar was relieved. He couldn’t share the steak specially made by brother Aidan for him—this was the best steak he had eaten in this country.

He swallowed the last piece of his steak as he closed his eyes, feeling the watery meat melt in his mouth. After a while, he rinsed his mouth with a glass of red wine before he said, "What do you want to know?" His voice was cheerful, reflecting his mood.

"Why did the young madam’s mood suddenly change? This morning, when she left the house, she was fine. Did something happen at the office?" Laura was worried because her mistress’s schedule was supposed to end in the afternoon. Still, now that she was back, she even wanted to take a nap—something that had never happened.

Oscar stopped drinking his wine, remembering his boss’s strange attitude. He put down his wine glass and looked at Laura with eyes that couldn’t be described with words. He just stared at her for a moment before he answered.

"I don’t know either. Lady Boss just asked me to take her home in the middle of our lunch...."

Now Laura understood why Oscar was eating at home.

"Did something happen at the restaurant?" Laura asks again—According to Oscar’s story, it seemed the young madam’s mood changed when they arrived at the restaurant.

"What I remember... Big Boss Evan extended his visit to New York and couldn’t come back to celebrate Christmas with Lady Boss, but when we started lunch, she was still fine...." Oscar suddenly stopped talking. As it crossed his mind, Rose asked about Carla Miller.

Did Lady Boss’ mood change because of that?

"What’s that!?" Laura was surprised to see the worry clearly plastered on his face.

Oscar furrowed his brows as he looked into Laura’s eyes, "Lady Boss suddenly asked about Carla Miller... does it have anything to do with it? Because after she asks about the movie star, she immediately instructs me to go home."

"Carla Miller?" Laura was a little surprised to hear the name. "What did she ask?

Is it about work?"

Laura didn’t know why her madam was suddenly asking about Carla Miller. Still, she guessed, maybe her madam wanted to discuss work, right!?

"No. It’s not about work." Oscar stopped his words, trying to remember what had happened during their lunch today. After some time, he continued. "She asked me, have I ever met Carla Miller in person? At that point, I said yes. And... after that, her mood dropped to zero. It’s weird..."

Instantly the room fell silent. Nobody spoke. They were both lost in their thoughts as if they were trying to figure it out; why did Rose’s mood change after asking about Carla Miller?

"Did madam meet Carla Miller at the restaurant?" Laura’s question broke the silence between them.

Laura wondered why Rose’s mood had suddenly changed—perhaps it had something to do with Carla Miller. Laura knew that Carla Miller was acquainted with young master Evan. In the past, she had overheard young master Evan talking to young master Sean and others about her during their visit to this house. This happened more than once.

Was Young Madam jealous of Carla Miller because she knew young master Evan? This thought distresses Laura.

"Meet Carla? No, of course not. Well, I didn’t see Carla Miller when we got there. Ah...but I saw Sean Spencer’s car. It’s just that when the boss and I had lunch, I didn’t see Sean..." He thought Sean had left the restaurant when he went into the kitchen to meet Aidan.

Laura could only take a deep breath while trying to get rid of what was on her mind. But after trying to get rid of her thoughts—that Rose met Carla at the restaurant—she still couldn’t.

"If only we could see the CCTV footage in the restaurant...." Laura muttered and stood up from her seat. She walked out of the room while praying in her heart; that her young madam’s mood would return to normal again.

"I can..."

Laura stopped and turned to look at Oscar, "What?" She asked.

"Obtained CCTV footage at the restaurant." A calm smile appeared on his face. "Why do you want to see it?"

Laura’s eyes lit up. She sat back in her chair and looked at Oscar with sparkling eyes. A sign of extraordinary relief. She just wanted to know why her young madam looked upset.

"Please, get the tape now, Oscar. Let’s see what happens in the restaurant. Maybe we can find out why my young madam suddenly became sad...."

Like getting a bright light after walking through a long dark tunnel, Oscar smiled, looking at Laura.

Damn! Why hadn’t he thought of this before?

Oscar quickly reached for his laptop and typed fast. While Laura waited for him at the side in shock.

Seeing Oscar’s fingers typing so fast on the keyboard with sharp eyes staring at the black screen in front of him made Laura stupefy.

"O-Oscar, are you a hacker?" Laura looked away from Oscar’s fingers, which were still dancing on the keyboard. She looked at Oscar’s cold-looking side profile in awe.

This skinny pale man is a hacker?

Oscar could only curse himself a hundred times in his heart after hearing Laura’s question. He was so stupid to reveal his secret in front of this girl. Damn!

However, this is a critical moment. Oscar had no other choice but to continue what he was doing.

Without stopping what he was doing, Oscar answered Laura, "Miss Martin, it’s a child-play... you don’t have to be a hacker to be able to check CCTV footage. Even Sam can do it after learning from watching videos on youtube..." Oscar could only praise himself for finding an excuse to deceive Laura.

"Wow! Really?"

"Ayee!!"

"Can I learn too?" Laura felt like learning. Maybe in the future, this ability can make her job more manageable.

"S-Sure!! I can teach you..." Suddenly Oscar’s throat felt dry. Since becoming Oliver’s teacher, he never intended to teach anyone else. But it turns out that the simple answer made Laura motivated to learn about hacking!?

He felt like crying.
