Bring Your A Game, Mr -
Chapter 521
Chapter 521 Extreme Insult
"Elise can only behave arrogantly for just this moment. Once she is done with the match, she'll definitely be kicked out of here!"
"That's right, Sophie. Soon, we won't have to see her annoying face. The prouder she is now, the worse she will suffer later on when she loses! Do you feel better thinking this way?"
"That's right. Haha! If she picks Sophie as her first opponent, then she'll be doomed! Sophie learned her skills from the president of the Cittadel Chess Club-Mr. Warren Reynolds himself. Elise would very likely be begging for mercy within ten moves!" "That's quite obvious. I reckon that the only person who is comparable in chess in this organization would be Kenneth. How can Elise be comparable to Sophie?!"
Sophie's girl squad voiced out one after the other to the point where they practically praised Sophie to the skies.
The smile gradually reappeared on Sophie's face as she regained her glow once again.
In each past gathering, she had hoped to have the chance to defeat Kenneth in a match so that he would have a different lasting impression of her. However, she had never won a match against him.
Last year, she had practically spent all of her spare time studying chess moves, so she was confident that she would be able to win the match against him and be seated on the same stage.
At this moment, Sophie took a deep breath to realign herself.
She was determined not to allow Elise to control her. After all, Elise's presence meant nothing at all since the person she wanted to face was Mr. Ross, who was her main opponent.
...
On the other end, Elise sat together with Kenneth at a corner and got to know each of the elites in the different industries. She carefully kept each of the business cards she received aside and placed them in a separate compartment of her bag. These people were involved in different industries and she might have a use for them in the future.
Shortly after that, there was a drum roll to signal the official start of the chess match.
The first round was conducted by the method of drawing lots to select the opponent.
Somehow, the two who held a grudge against each other clashed in the first round. Elise had drawn Sophie as her opponent.
Meanwhile, Kenneth glanced at the number Elise had picked and he probed out of concern, "If you aren't confident, I can still liaise with the organizers to call off the chess match so that you don't have to go through this."
"That's not necessary." Elise flung the ball in her hand into the air and caught it again. It was indicative of her carefree attitude.
As soon as he saw that, he had no choice but to stifle the advice he had for her. So, he merely said, "Don't stress and have some fun then. I'll be back real soon." Subsequently, he walked off toward his opponent. Meanwhile, she went to her table according to the number on the ball and Sophie was already seated and waiting for her.
Sophie gave a cynical smile as soon as she saw Elise and there was a look of disdain on her face. "Tsk! Tsk! We're playing against each other indeed. Elise, do you need me to explain the rules of chess with you?" Sophie's words had successfully attracted the attention of the neighboring tables.
All of them wore incredulous expressions on their faces. After all, other than the waiters, how could the organizers allow anyone who didn't even know the rules of chess into the room? It was pretty much impossible. Did she gain entry by taking advantage with the help of someone in position?!
Besides being surprised, all of them were amazed by Elise's stunning looks as soon as they saw her face. Once they had returned to their senses, they nodded their heads knowingly since good looks were indeed quite powerful too.
Elise didn't care about these people's attention as she met Sophie's eyes with a nonchalant look and a casual smile. "Thanks, but no thanks."
Sophie was quite disdainful at the response. She didn't believe that Elise-the country bumpkin just back from the countryside would know anything about chess. Ultimately, Elise was just putting on a tough front, that's all. However, she pretended to show her refinement, so she patiently started to explain the rules to Elise, "I'll take the black pieces and you can have the white..."
At this moment, Elise remained calm as she listened in a laid back manner.
Finally, it was time for the start of the match.
Sophie made the first move.
Subsequently, Elise smiled and made her move too.
...
At the fifth move, Sophie became quite aggressive and took Elise's piece.
Meanwhile, Elise's lips curled into a sly smile before she slowly made her sixth and her seventh moves.
After ten moves, Elise started to run after each of Sophie's pieces. When Sophie finally realized it, nearly half of her pieces were gone.
At that point, she leaned forward and blinked her eyes quite hard in a daze.
