Chapter 1295

I stood on one side and lowered my head to look at the chessboard.

They were playing chess. At this moment, Grayson no longer had a bishop. Theo had his rook aimed at the queen. He was destined to lose this match.

He knew he was definitely going to lose, but as an elder, he did not want to embarrass himself. Hence, he called me over to ease the embarrassment. I looked at Theo. After several days of not seeing him, he still looked charming as ever, though he seemed a little haggard too

When he caught me staring at him, he raised his eyebrows and locked at Grayson, saying, "It's your turn, Mr. Louis.”

Grayson brushed his nose. "How should I go on playing this?"

He would lose no matter what step he took. He raised his head to lock at me before getting up and saying, "Continue the game for me, child. I'll go help your mom with the cleaning."

He hurried away after saying that.

I was a little speechless. Was it really okay for him to leave this mess to me?

I sat down and was not in the mood to play chess. I looked at Theo and asked, "What are you doing here?" Theo frowned, not answering the question, * Why didn't you tell me that you've returned to Whaldorf City?"

I lowered my head to look at the chessboard and moved his rook away, saying with a bland voice, "Mr. Grant, you have a myriad of things to attend to every day. Why are you concerned about such trivial manners?"

Theo sighed, moving away his rook that was aiming at me. He relented as I had expected. "It was a misunderstanding that night. Zedd was there toc. You can ask him if you don't believe me." Was he explaining himself to me?

I pursed my lips and placed the last of my pawn at his side. "I know. Actually, you don't have to explain yourself to me, Mr. Grant. You're rich and powerful, so it's normal for you to have mistresses. I totally understand.”

Theo frowned, looking a little unhappy now.

He captured the pawn I placed on his side. I got up and said, "Make yourself at home, Mr. Grant. I'm taking my leave now." He got up as well and pressed both hands on my shoulders. I was pressed back to my seat on the sofa.

He sighed, putting back the pawn he just took in the same place. He then placed his rook in front of my pawn. "Let's continue.” I frowned and tock his rook directly.

Theo looked completely powerless but did not say a word

At this moment, Grayson walked over withan expectant and N surprised expression. "Weren't we losing? Why are we on par now? Looks like my daughter is truly a genius at chess.” FindNovel.Org -

I pursed my lips, not saying a word.

It was not that I was good at chess but Theo dared not win against me.

"It's your turn," Theo said with a smile,

He had only two bishops left, whereas I had a rook and a pawn left. I continued playing.

When Pet(aserved fruits, she IN stopped Bustling aboutinthe kitchen and watched us play chess. Cassey woke up and came Oo downstairs, joining the fun: as well.

Theo moved his bishop to me and let me take it. I had no reason not to take it.

Grayson was speechless and turned around to'leave, mumbling as hedid $0," These two aren't playing chess the ght way. Who plays chess like that? What a joke." t6 FindNovel.Org a

Cassey heard him and said with a disgusted look on her face, "What do you know? How can couples ever play chess seriously? Are they even playing chess?

What they're playing is affection. You're such a nerd.”
