Led by the butler, Rachel and David arrived at the Water Cloud Courtyard in the southeast corner. There was a clear pond in front of lush vegetation. The irises looked delicate and fish could be seen swimming under the leaves.
Old Mr. Jones sat under a nearby pavilion, dressed casually and playing a game of chess.
The chess board was an 8-by-8 grid, and the game was still ongoing with no clear winner between the black and white pieces. The black pieces seemed to be dominating, but their strength was dwindling. while the white pieces were in a disadvantageous position but remained in control.
All it took was a slight change in strategy and the black pieces would lose the entire game.
Old Mr. Jones was clearly aware of the situation. He fiddled with the chess piece using his fingertips. and didn’t place it down for a while.
Hearing footsteps, he slowly widened his eyes and glanced at Rachel. A subtle cold glint flashed in his
eyes.
David took a step forward and placed a chess piece on the chess board.
Old Mr. Jones frowned and said in a deep voice, “You’ve been away for so long that you’ve forgotten the rules.”
“The outcome has been decided. Even if you don’t make a move, there’s nothing you can do to change the result,” said David as he gazed at Old Mr. Jones.
“Nothing is absolute.” Old Mr. Jones took a sip from the cup next to him and said in a kind tone that also had a hint of seriousness, “Despite my age, I can still discipline you if necessary.”
“I wouldn’t dare to disobey you,” replied David. He was hesitant to follow Old Mr. Jones’ teachings, but he still had some respect for him. “You know that’s not what I meant.”
If he didn’t want to follow the Old Mr. Jones’ rules, he wouldn’t have brought Rachel to the old residence.
“Do you know how to play chess?” Old Mr. Jones changed the topic and pointed at Rachel.
The astonished Rachel replied, “I know just a little.”
Old Mr. Jones chuckled. “That’s humble of you.”
He put down the cup in his hand and gestured for Rachel to sit opposite him. “Fancy a game with me?”
Rachel replied calmly, “Of course, it’s better to obey than to be polite.”
She sat in front of the chess board and placed a white chess piece on it.
At that moment, Billy Jones entered from the outside. “Sir, I’ve brought everything.”
