Chapter 49: Meet Steve Adkins
Rose and Evan sat in the private room at the Italian restaurant waiting for Steve Adkins.
"Rose, may I ask you?"
Rose looked at Evan beside her. She nods.
"Why do you suddenly want to invest in a new startup company like Flash?" Evan actually wanted to acquire this company as well. But because Rose wanted to do so, he would step back after hearing her reason first. He is worried Rose does not understand the e-commerce business. Because there is no similar business model established in this country like Flash.
He hoped that Rose’s reason was similar to his, who saw that this business had a bright future if it was developed properly. And have a strong starting foundation.
"To be honest with you, this business will not be able to generate profits quickly...." Rose smiled when she saw that there was curiosity in Evan’s eyes. She continued, "However, I see Flash’s have great opportunities in the future. In just a few years, I believe a business like this will be booming in this country. And Flash will be the first company to be a pioneer and number one...."
"I know! But, do you have a way to make this company grow faster? You know Steve already spent almost a year building this company, but this company is still lost... No significant progress..."
"Of course, I have an idea for this venture! You think I just casually bought this company?" Rose laughed slightly. "But, I’m sorry, Mr. Collins! I can’t tell you what my plan is yet. This is a secret...." Rose proudly said. Of course, she had thought of a way to make this company progress faster than ever. In her memory, she had a 10-year-cheat of her previous life.
Evan felt relieved to hear how confident she was. He knows his girlfriend is brilliant, and indeed she has a similar point of view to him.
"I hope your meeting with Steve goes well." Evan raises her water glass to salute his smart girlfriend.
"Thank you, Evan!"
Later, they hear a knock on the door. Evan stood up and opened the door. He saw Steve Adkins in his black suit standing before him, looking nerdy with his black-frame round glasses.
"Evan Collins!?" Steve Adkins was surprised to see the man before him.
"Did I get the wrong number?" Steve looked again at the text message he had received from Rose Wilson. Then he looked at the door number. He was confused. Why did Evan Collins open this door for him?
"Hi Steve, you’re in the right room. Please come in...." Evan opens the door wider and gives him a way to come in.
Steve Adkins was confused, but he entered the VIP room anyway, following Evan.
When he entered the VIP room, he was surprised to see a beautiful young woman standing near the seating area. She looks stylish with her white shirt, blue jeans, and an oversize navy blue blazer. She was standing facing him while a beautiful smile framed her goddess-like face. He believes the girl is Rose Wilson.
He was mesmerized but only for a second because, at the same time, a sturdy palm landed on his shoulder, making him snap out, almost bewitched by the girl’s beauty.
"Follow me, Steve! Let me introduce you to Rose Wilson...." Evan pulled Steve Adkins to the sofa area.
"Do you guys know each other?" Rose is surprised that Evan seems to know Steve. They look familiar to each other.
"Yeah, we know each other..." Evan sat beside Rose while Steve sat opposite them.
"H-how do you know him?" Rose was surprised. She never knew that Evan was close to Steve Adkins because Steve is their senior. When they enter university, Steve is already in his third year.
"Well, he is our senior... Of course, I know him so well. What’s more, his ideas for digital business make me want to be friends with...." Evan’s explanation made Rose realize that there were many things she didn’t know about Evan. Rose had been too immersed in Dustin’s world that she ignored her class friends.
"Evan and Rose, are you guys a coup...." Steve, who had been surprised to see how beautiful Rose was, now had to be even more shocked when he realized that Evan and Rose were not just friends.
"Rose is my girlfriend..." Evan quickly answered Steve’s question. Then he turns to look at Rose. He was smiling when he saw her cheek turn blush.
"Wow! Evan, you finally found your beloved woman! Congratulations...." Steve raises his hand and gives Evan a thumbs up.
Evan and Steve exchange words that make Rose blush. She was too shy to look at them. How could these two men talk about her so casually? Like she was not there with them. Gosh! She hoped she could vanish from that place.
"Rose, shall we start our business now!?"
"Sure! You’ve read my offer, right? Anything else you wanted to know?" Rose is trying to calm her beating heart. Now, she must go back to her usual calmness. Because this meeting with Steve is one of her missions, to quickly acquire an e-commerce company, Flash.
Steve Adkins looked at Evan as if asking him for permission to speak.
"Steve, don’t mind me. I just came here to accompany my girlfriend. You guys can talk about business freely...." Evan places his hand on Rose’s lap, making Rose surprised, but she tries to maintain her expression. Afraid Steve will be suspicious about their intimacy under the table.
She could only scold Evan in her heart because his touch distracts her mind now.
"Rose, I just wanted to know why you wanted to buy Flash...." Steve Adkins’s eyes looked straight into Rose. He wanted to know how serious she was about her plan.
"I know what kind of trouble you are in right now, Steve. As a person who really understands business, the risk of investing in Flash is monumental. Many investors will think twice before investing in Flash." Rose could see Steve’s shock when he heard her words.
