Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie novel Chapter 20

20. A Test from Mister Harper

“Unfortunately, other children can also tell stories. Isn’t there something more special that you can show?” Rowan Harper raised an

eyebrow.

“Louis is good at counting.”

“No, you’re the smarter one, Emily.”

Before the twins argued, Rowan tested them with simple mathematical operations. Amazingly, the twins always answered quickly and precisely. Then, he tested their numeracy skills with more complicated cases. Again, the questions given seemed easy for them.

“Last question. One of our subsidiaries plans to add computers. The research department needs 8, IT needs 5, marketing needs 3, and administration needs 2. But, the available budget is only enough to buy 16 high-end computers of the same type. What should we do?”

Louis and Emily looked at each other. They didn’t expect to encounter such a problem.

“The total required is 18.”

“That’s right, 2 units more than budgeted.”

Rowan Harper secretly smiled proudly. Such a small kids could already discuss things beyond their age? Truly extraordinary!

“Sir, may we ask you something?” Emily looked up. “Why do marketing and administration departments need additional computers?”

“The marketing department needs to conduct market research and process data, while administration needs to manage documents.”

ley don’t have to use high-

specifation computers for those light tasks, unlike research and IT departments.”

Emily elbowed Louis in the arm. “Specification, Louis, not specifation.”

“Yes, that’s what I mean.”

Rowan Harper’s laughter suddenly filled the air. In his entire life, it was the first time he had encountered such amazing children.

“Great! Very great! It would be an honor for our company to be able to pay for the schooling of children as genius as you two.”

“So, can we take part in the selection?” Louis asked enthusiastically.

“What is the selection for? We will immediately accept you two.” A second later, Rowan called the women near the door to come closer. After the official announcement, contact these children’s parents. Collect their documents. Don’t forget to invite them as special guests at the inauguration event.”

Knowing their success, Louis and Emily laughed out loud. They

jumped up and down before running around Rowan Harper and the female employees.

“Buzz buzz buzz, the worker bees managed to get the nectar.”

“Buzz buzz buzz, the queen bee will definitely be very happy.”

Watching the twins’ behavior, Rowan sighed lightly. He understood. Even though Louis and Emily were geniuses, they were still children.

‘If Frank hadn’t put off getting married, I would have had great- grandchildren at their age.’

“Sir, the jury is waiting for your presence,” one of the female

employees said after receiving a message from a small device in her

ear.

Rowan snapped out of his reverie. Instead of taking a step, he straightened up his finger.

“Convey that I trust their judgment. I have more important thing to do

now.”

Then, with a firm expression, Rowan turned to a burly man behind his

back.

“Sean, let’s meet Frank. That boy must be urged. He won’t be able to give me offspring if he only thinks about the company and his ego.”

***

Frank again found himself lost in thought looking at the secretary’s

desk. There was no one there. Neither Vivian nor the HR team knew

“In the elevator.”

Frank swallowed hard, worried that Rowan would notice his incompetence today. While moving half of his pile of documents. under the table, he ordered the bodyguard to remove the dust from the table near the sofa.

A moment later, an old man in a brown suit stepped in with his personal assistant. “Good afternoon, My Grandson.”

Frank was stunned. Rowan Harper wasn’t usually that friendly, even towards him.

“Afternoon…, Grandpa.”

“Where’s Jeremy?”

Frank blinked stiffly. Since when did the grandfather care about his assistant?

“I’m sending him out of town.”

“And your new secretary?”

Frank’s breath suddenly hitched and his body stiffened. How could Rowan Harper put Kara’s image in his mind?

“She…,” Frank took a deep breath, “just went out to buy my lunch.”

Rowan twitched an eyebrow and nodded. Before he could continue, Frank interrupted. “Why are you here, Grandpa? Shouldn’t you be at the library?”

Rowan casually sat on the sofa. After briefly inspecting the room, hel widened his smile.

“Why don’t you come to the library? Are you too in love with these walls? You even let your secretary get your lunch.”

“I plan to go there after lunch,” Frank nodded stiffly, but looked natural. That was indeed his style whenever he faced his grandfather.

Rowan’s eyebrows rose high. The wrinkles on his forehead were more visible. “I actually stopped by the library before coming here. I met two genius toddlers there.”

Frank’s eyes suddenly narrowed. “Is it Emily and her brother?”

Rowan almost flinched, but quickly controlled his astonishment. “You know them?”
