“Ms. Lynch!” they shouted in unison, which startled Gilda. She looked at the crowd and was a little confused. “Alan, what are you doing?”

Alan patted his belly and sat down on the sofa. “Ms. Lynch, we’re here to check on you.”

Gilda was speechless.

“You wouldn’t come to me if you didn’t have something to ask of me. What’s up?” Gilda said directly. Alan walked up to her and said with a flattering face, “You are so smart.”

“Here’s the thing. I’ve been studying chess recently, and I have learned some new skills. I just want to play chess with you.”

Gilda raised her eyebrows and asked, “That’s it?”

Alan nodded repeatedly.

After losing to Gilda before, he admired her chess skills. However, it also intensified his desire to beat her.

After practicing diligently at home for some time, he decided to come over to compete against Gilda.

“Ms. Lynch, can you give me a chance please?”

Alan looked at Gilda pleadingly. He didn’t look like a gang leader at all. His eyes were full of obsession with chess.

Gilda rejected him. “I can’t do it at this time because I need to inspect a project on an island. I will compete with you when

we return.”

Alan was dispirited at once and nodded listlessly.

Gilda didn’t bear to see his disappointment and added, “It is in Azalea Bay. The round trip only takes two to three days. You can also take this opportunity to sharpen your skills…

Alan was furious. “Ms. Lynch, you are a bit mean at this moment.”

Gilda smiled and said, “I hope to see your progress next time.”

Alan was too angry to say anything.

Gilda went back to work. Alan didn’t want to disturb her any further since she seemed busy: He informed Gilda that he was

leaving and left with his men.

But only after they came out did Alan realize something wrong. He asked, “Where did Ms. Lynch say she would go?”

“Azalea Bay?”

“Alan, didn’t we sell the island to that foreigner two days ago? Why is Ms. Lynch going there?”

Alan glanced suspiciously and frowned. “Ms. Lynch said she was going there for a project. Maybe she is going to work with the foreigner.”

They didn’t think much about it. “That may be the case. After all, Ms. Lynch has an extensive range of businesses and might need to deal with anybody”

Alan hurriedly interrupted them. “Enough. This is Ms. Lynch’s business. Let’s stay out of it. Let’s go back. I will practice playing chess harder. When she comes back, I will go compete with her.”

His men said nothing.

In the evening. Alan played chess with his friend.

The two people were equally matched in strength, and the chess game was tense. Suddenly, a man rushed in and exclaimed, “Alan, something has happened!”

Alan waved his hand unhappily. “Go away. I’ll talk to you after I finish this.”

“But…”

The man wanted to say something more, but Alan shot a cold look at him. He was frightened and bit back his words.

Alan finished the game an hour later. He had checkmated his opponent and was in a good mood. He said, “1 win! It was great to play chess with you.”

“Alan, you’re getting better at it!”

Alan was very proud. “I learned from the best. My leader taught me this.”
