?Chapter 1250:
“I am,” Jerome answered in a quiet voice.
“Let’s have a match,” Jesse said, his tone serious.
He had to show Nina who was really the best.
Jerome looked surprised. “You know how to hack?”
Jesse nodded. “Yeah, I do.”
“All right then,” Jerome said, epting the challenge.
Not long after, the two boys sat down topete.
n watched them, his mouth slightly open. Was this even real? Jesse being that good was already unbelievable—but Jerome too? The kind of skills n didn’t even understand were now being shown off by two little kids.
“Uncle n, who do you think will win?” Nina asked, eyes still locked on Jerome.<fn5de3> Updates are released by Find~Novel</fn5de3>
“Isn’t it obvious? Of course it’s Jesse,” n whispered, keeping his voice low so the kids wouldn’t hear. “Remember how good your mom is withputers?”
Nina pressed her lips together, her big round eyes filled with worry.
On a good day, she would’ve wanted Jesse to win. But Jerome was her guest.
What if losing made him feel bad?
“Can you make Jerome win instead?” she asked n softly.
n gave her a puzzled look. He wasn’t sure he’d heard her right. “Who did you say?”
“Jerome,” Nina said again, clearly.
“You don’t want Jesse to win?” n asked, surprised.
Jesse had only challenged Jerome because Nina had said Jerome was better.
Jesse wanted to prove himself—he wanted to show he was still the best.
But as it was, Nina was quietly hoping the other boy would win.
“In other days, I want Jesse to win,” she said honestly. “But right now, I hope Jerome wins.”

n just stared at her. Then he looked over at Jesse with a mix of emotions. Suddenly, he felt a little sorry for the boy.
They were only four years old, and yet Nina’s heart was already starting to lean away from her own brother.
While they spoke, Jesse and Jerome had already finished their match. Jesse won without any trouble.
“How is it that you’re so exceptionally good?” Jerome asked, staring at the screen. He’d always thought he was the smartest kid around. But now he saw—there’s always someone better.
Jesse lifted his hands from the keyboard and said calmly, “Learn from the best.”
Then, he climbed down from the chair and looked straight at Nina. “I won. I’m better than him.”
But Nina wasn’t looking at him. All her attention was on Jerome.
After Jesse finished speaking, she gave him a quick smile and said something nice, then turned her focus back to Jerome.
“Don’t look so down,” she said. “My mom’s really good at this stuff. When she gets back, I’ll ask her to teach you. Just learn from her for one month—you’ll beat my brother in no time! Don’t give up, okay? Come on, let’s go find something tasty to eat!”
