Caleb froze for a moment and then increased his driving speed.

Meanwhile inside the Woland Residence’s study.

Three rounds of chess later, James was looking at Alice with disbelief.

He loved chess and had been studying it since he was young, and he had a talent for it. Since he turned eighteen, he had never lost when competing with others. It could be said that he had never lost a game of chess.

Of course, his opponents had various skills, but if he were born into this generation and joined competitions, he would win prizes.

However, he lost to a young woman today, and he lost three rounds in a row.

In all three rounds, he had lost by one move, and it was that reason that made him even more shocked. The young woman seemed to have the ability to read his thoughts and knew all his moves so that she could win by only one move.

As if winning him wasn’t hard enough, she could even maintain such a highly skilled win every time. How could James not be shocked and amazed by that?

No wonder she behaved so arrogantly just now. It was because she does have the capability to support her arrogance. Hmm, this girl isn’t as simple as I thought she’d be.

“Old Mr. Rowland, I won.” Alice looked at James, grinning without any trace of being modest.

Actually, Alice also had a deep knowledge of chess and was talented in psychology as well. That was how she won against James.
