Chapter 389
Shawn couldn’t keep his concerns to himself. He wasn’t the type of person to remain calm and composed. He was deeply worried about Andrew, and he couldn’t wait any longer. He shut down his computer and headed towards the door.
Copper stopped him and said with a patient tone, “Please don’t meddle in this matter. Mr. Andrew is just playing some games and there’s no harm in it.”
To be honest. Copper didn’t think it was a significant issue.
He had initially felt sorry for Andrew, believing that even though he was born into a wealthy family, he would likely become an indulgent and idle rich kid. In the future, he would only be a man with nothing else but money.
However, after Andrew’s questioning. Copper had a change of heart.
Andrew was smart, rich, good–looking, and would have a brighter future. There was no reason for others to pity him.
Moreover, seeing how he learned the violin and painting, as well as how he displayed a wide range of knowledge, it was evident that he had put in effort, and his family had nurtured him well. Since that was the case, why were they worried? Copper tried to explain, “Didn’t you hear him earlier? Mr. Andrew has to practice. the violin and learn painting. He can only play games in his free time. How can that be considered ruining him?
“He’s only six years old, even if he plays all day, it’s not ruining him.”
Shawn listened to Copper’s advice and felt that it made sense.
He realized that Andrew hadn’t wasted his time. He simply didn’t have the time to learn programming.
Once he understood this, Shawn felt remorseful and ruffled his hair, saying, “Copper, you don’t know how smart Andrew is. If he learns programming, he will definitely surpass me and become a top international expert in the future.
“Even so, we can’t force him to do something.”
“I just want him to be enlightened.” Shawn plopped into his chair.
Copper gave him an idea. “You can try to tempt him. Kids are easy to influence. Tell him that programming is fantastic, and he’ll want to learn.”
Shawn’s mood brightened as he considered Copper’s suggestion.
He promptly called Andrew and said, “Andrew, do you still want to learn. programming? We can create our own exciting games.”
Andrew’s voice was full of enthusiasm. “I love learning programming. I’m already. very good now, and Olivia says I’ve made great progress.”
The mention of Olivia irritated Shawn. There was a look of disdain flashed in his

– wang you programming?”
Andrew nodded and enthusiastically said, “Yes, Olivia is very talented.” Upon hearing this, Shawn’s anger flared. He sternly stated, “Nonsense! Programning requires outstanding logical thinking. What I can teach you is profound knowledge. You should learn from me, and you’ll become a powerful hacker in the future. What is she teaching you? Isn’t it a waste of time?”
The more Shawn thought about it, the angrier he became. He felt that Olivia was really scheming. She had coaxed Andrew so much and now Andrew only listened to her words.
She hadn’t even married into the family, but she was already so scheming.
When she really married into the Sullivan family and gave birth to her own child, would the Sullivan family still have a place for Andrew?
Although Shawn’s rationality told him to mind his own business, he could not bear to see a genius like Andrew destroyed.
He suppressed his emotions and advised Andrew, “Andrew, come and find me. I’ll make a better game for you.”
Andrew expressed disbelief with his widened eyes. “Better? Is it better than the game designed by Olivia?”
The little boy’s tone was doubtful and made Shawn chuckle.
As an internationally renowned computer expert, creating a game was just a simple task for him.
Copper also found Andrew’s doubts quite amusing. After all, this was Shawn, the internationally renowned “Lord Toole.”
Daniel had put in a lot of effort to bring him on board.
But now, Shawn’s capability was being doubted by a little boy who hadn’t entered primary school.
Copper leaned back on the sofa with a mischievous look in his eyes. He said, “Today, you can give the kid a good demonstration.”
His recent work had been exhausting, so it was a good way to unwind. Andrew didn’t believe Shawn, but Shawn was so confident in his words that it provoked his competitive spirit. So, he insisted on a comparison.
Olivia was in the living room on the first floor. When she saw Andrew running. down with his phone, she asked curiously, “It’s so late. Where are you going?” Andrew hugged his phone and leaned against Olivia. He said angrily, “Shawn said that the game he made is better than yours, but I don’t believe it.”
“What’s the big deal?” Olivia ruffled his chubby cheek. “There are always people more talented than others. There are many brilliant people in the world, and the game I design is not the best.”
