Chapter 484: Meeting Jayson Spencer
Earlier, Evan was curious to see her sitting on the couch staring at her cell phone. He thought she was watching something on YouTube or reading the news, but she was playing a game.
What kind of game makes her ignore her surroundings?
It was the first time Evan saw her like this, playing something on her cell phone. It makes him curious.
Rose really blamed herself, drowning in her assignment from Oscar. Now she has lost her chance to talk to Sean — she doesn’t know when she will meet him again.
"No. I didn’t talk to Sean that much..." She said,
While playing ’game coding,’ she only knew Oscar was sitting with her. She had even forgotten that the big guy Sam was with them.
"What game are you playing?"
"I don’t know the game’s name. Oscar gave it to me, and he challenged me to finish the game..." Rose said while looking around. She wanted to find Oscar.
Where is he? Has he gone home too?
"Can I see?" Evan Ask.
Just before Rose wanted to answer, Aidan came up to them. Evan took the opportunity to say goodbye.
"Brother, drive carefully..."
"Don’t worry. Sam will drive..." Evan waved his hand and headed outside, holding Rose’s hand.
Once they were both in the car, Evan asked her again about the game. He was curious.
Rose gave her cell phone to Evan. It was difficult for her to explain since the game didn’t have a name. After all, it’s not a game like the mobile games she knows. But all that appeared on her cell phone screen were numbers and symbols that she had to match.
To others, the game might appear utterly confusing. But for her, she just watched Oscar play it, she could solve the puzzle.
It’s just that when she tried at the medium level, her fingers couldn’t keep up with the speed of the numbers that appeared on her cell phone screen. That’s why she always failed to reach the 3-minute challenge. She was stuck for 15 minutes.
Rose believed her hand speed would improve if she practiced. She was really tempted to finish the task from Oscar.
Evan was shocked when he saw the game on her cell phone. Instantly his mind filled with all kinds of questions. Why did Oscar give Rose this game?!
"Wife, you say Oscar gave you this game?"
"Hmm..." Rose couldn’t finish her words.
Did she make a mistake? Why did Evan’s face darken!? Like he’s mad!?
"May I know why he suddenly gave you this game!?" Evan asked calmly, but his tone was cold. That made Rose and Sam feel the temperature inside the car suddenly drop to its lowest point.
Is it because Oscar’s identity as a hacker cannot be known by others, including her? That’s why Evan is mad!?
Suddenly she felt guilty. The reason is that she exposed Oscar’s identity and forced him to teach her.
"H-Hubby... I asked Oscar about games, and he gave me this game." Rose felt guilty for lying to him.
Evan slowly caressed her blushing cheeks. He smiled gently at her, "I will not be mad at you. But I was hoping you could tell me the truth. Can you do that!?"
Rose immediately nodded, and she told him everything — how she found out Oscar’s identity and finally asked him to teach her how to hack.
Evan could only laugh bitterly in his heart after hearing her explanation. He feels proud of her intelligence. She didn’t need anyone else to tell her, but she could immediately guess Oscar’s identity.
He didn’t know whether to be proud or sad about this.

A few days later, on the weekend.
Rose and Evan headed to a private restaurant. The restaurant is usually visited by certain people — the old money in this country. Well, not only old money, but they must be influential in the politics and business field.
In fact, Evan rarely visited the restaurant because he could only go there when his father or grandfather invited him. As for Rose, this is her first time visiting this top culinary place.
The place was near the city hall and surrounded by a large wooden park. Reportedly, state guests are often invited to eat here by the President.
And today, they’re meeting up with their uncle, Jayson Spencer, for lunch in this pricey restaurant.
After Evan parked the vehicle, they didn’t get out right away. Rose needed to call Oliver first to make sure he was ready.
She was worried that Oliver would run away because he was too nervous to face her uncle.
"Where are you?" Rose asked when Oliver picked up the phone.
"My car is next to yours." He rolled down the car window and waved to Rose with a blooming smile framing his calm-looking face.
Rose was surprised to see Oliver had arrived first.
"You look calm, Mr. Hester." Rose chuckled. "Are you ready to meet your future father-in-law!?"
"I’ll take that as a compliment, Rose!" Oliver said while laughing.
Even though he looked calm now, he could feel a storm wreaking havoc in his heart and stomach. This feeling is pretty unusual to him.
Since arriving at this place, many thoughts had crossed his mind. Most notably, Jayson Spencer disapproves of his relationship with his daughter.
"Okay! You wait here. I’ll go see my uncle first and explain to him. I’ll call you after that..." Rose explained their plan. Oliver could only nod in agreement and hope for the best.
Oliver was touched that Rose and Evan wanted to help him to meet someone as significant as Jayson Spencer. Not just anyone can get his time, and Oliver is pretty sure that he is just a nobody in Jayson Spencer’s eyes. Mainly when it is about someone who probably cherishes the most, his daughter Keira.
Soon...
Rose and Evan entered the VIP room where Jayson Spencer was.
"Oh, you guys finally came." Jayson Spencer stood up and greeted Rose and Evan. "Come in! Uncle ordered food for you. So, you can eat it right away," he chirped.
"Uncle, thank you for meeting us," Rose calmly said while trying to read her uncle’s mood.
After making sure her uncle was in a good mood, she didn’t linger and said her goal was to meet him. In the middle of explaining it, Evan helped her.
But it seems their plan is on the edge of failure.
Rose felt chills as she watched her uncle’s expression slowly change — changing from a gentle smile to great shock and then realization, followed by a look of anger.
Damn it!!
Did they fail to convince him?
Even after they told him about Oliver’s background as a hacker, the look on her uncle’s face remained the same. It was like there was a dark cloud hanging right over his head.
"Oliver, I’m sorry!!! Looks like our plan failed!!" Rose grumbled in her heart. Feel sorry for her best friends.
She didn’t want to hear what Evan and her uncle were talking about anymore. She diverted her mind by eating the delicious dish on the table.
Maybe swallowing whatever is in front of her can shift her feeling guilty because she failed to convince her uncle to meet Oliver.
This is her most enormous failure, and it is shameful. Now, she felt sorry for Oliver because she had promised him that this method would work. But this turned out to be a total failure.
Rose starts to eat. But, later she was taken aback when her first bite, melting in her mouth, tantalized her appetite. Instantly her mind became clear like spring had come early in this place.
This food! It was so delicious! It’s heavenly food. No wonder this restaurant is only exclusive to state officials and the rich people of this country.
Even though her mission failed but slowly her mood rose again after enjoying the food.
"Rose... Wife... Did you hear?"
Vaguely Rose heard her name being called by Evan.
Slowly she lifted her head and saw Evan now looking at her. "Did you hear what uncle said earlier?" He asked.
"Huh!? Hear what? Sorry, I didn’t hear..." She felt embarrassed to be caught in a daze while eating.
"Uncle wants you to contact Oliver. He needs to talk to him first." Evan’s words made Rose’s eyes widen in shock.
She looked at her uncle, "Uncle, do you want to meet Oliver?"
"I have no choice. If you and Evan guarantee he’s a good person and talented, why should I hesitate?" Jayson Spencer said.
"T-Thank you, uncle. I’ll call him now. Uncle, can we continue eating before you talk to him?" Rose said in a pleading voice. She craves its food, and it would be a shame if she had to leave without finishing her food, right!?
"Sure! You can order more." Jayson laughed.
"No need, uncle. This is enough." Rose shyly said. She immediately called Oliver to come inside to join them.
Rose was in a good mood, and her mission had been completed. Oliver must try to convince her uncle to give him permission to date Keira.
