The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 971: Teach Nathalie to Play Game

Candice Yancey had an important phone call conference to attend.

Only after entering did she find out that inside Rivendell, mobile signals were blocked; she could only exit to ask the board of directors to postpone the conference and rearrange her schedule.

It was supposed to take some time, but Candice Yancey was uneasy about Nathalie Quinlan being alone inside, so she only made a twenty-minute phone call before coming in.

When she came in, she saw Jethro Yapiter bending down and talking respectfully to Nathalie Quinlan, but she didn’t think much of it, especially since Jethro walked away soon after.

"Nathalie, have you been waiting long?" Candice Yancey sat down next to Nathalie Quinlan, her robust and efficient face wrapped with a smile, softly and gently explaining to the girl beside her: "There was a meeting at the company. I told them I was busy today, but after my assistant finished, she forgot to notify them. Everyone had already arrived, so I could only give remote instructions."

Candice came over, and Nathalie closed her phone game, politely replying: "No, I didn’t have anything else to do either. I was just playing a game."

"Isn’t there no signal in Rivendell?" Candice Yancey noticed the game on her phone and curiously asked, "You can still play games without a signal?"

Nathalie lazily put away her phone, not mentioning that a signal blocker of this level couldn’t block her phone signal at all. She could crack the signal blocking system here anytime she wanted, but she was lazy and besides, today was Pinecone Group’s venue, she didn’t want to cause trouble: "I was playing a single-player small game."

Seeing that Candice Yancey was still looking at her, Nathalie added: "...Something like Tetris."

"Oh!" Once she said that, Candice Yancey immediately understood.

Tetris, huh? She often played it when stressed with work, but in recent years she preferred the Matching game, which is both intellectual and time-consuming.

She seemed to have found a common topic with Nathalie, her eyes brightened, quite happy: "Which level are you on?"

"..."

Nathalie felt embarrassed to say she was at the maximum level.

Candice Yancey didn’t even know this small game had a pass-through stage, gleefully sharing her game experience: "I remember I played up to level 68, Amadeus used to play these too, he’s a bit better than me at it, I think 108 levels?"

Candice said with an unsure expression: "Seems like it was 108 levels... I can’t quite remember, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen him play."

Nathalie didn’t know Amadeus Yancey also played these kinds of mobile puzzle games, her eyes dimmed slightly, and she sounded quite sincere: "That’s pretty impressive."

Tetris and Matching game are games that become more difficult as you proceed, and in some ways, they are also types of intellectual games.

The fact that Amadeus Yancey could advance to the later stages shows his intelligence is not lacking.

Candice Yancey didn’t see which level Nathalie had been playing, but smiled and confidently patted her hand, "No worries, the game has some tricks. I’ll teach you a few little tricks later, and you can advance beyond level 100 too."

"..." Nathalie, who had already mastered these small games, replied with a hoarse voice: "...Alright."

Back row.

Sherly Iversen and a few others had already taken their seats, from the moment Jethro Yapiter went to talk to Nathalie Quinlan, she had been unable to sit still in her seat, frequently paying attention to the situation in the first row.

Later, seeing Candice Yancey come in and head straight towards Nathalie Quinlan’s direction, sitting next to the girl, the two started chatting animatedly.

Although she didn’t know Candice Yancey, she vaguely felt a sort of pride from Candice Yancey that even her own background didn’t possess.

That kind of pride, she had seen plenty of in Beijing.

It was the aura of someone inhabiting a high position.
