“Grandpa, I’m calling it a night.” Sadie announced her departure.
“Okay, go on along,” said Hugh.
While Kayson was making his next move on the chessboard, he asked, “Grandpa Hugh, I have something that I would like to ask.”
“Go ahead and ask. I will tell you everything I know,” Hugh replied while making his move.
“Actually, I wanted to ask about how you got acquainted with my mentor. What happened between the two of you? He told me that he owed you a favor. I know my mentor quite well and suffice to say, it’s not something common for him to owe someone a favor,” said Kayson. .
Hugh’s brow twitched before he moved one of his chess pieces and said quietly, “Your mentor … Owes me quite a lot. It’s not something that you can put a price tag on. Kace, why are you suddenly asking about this? Could it be that you are planning to leave when the favor is paid
Kayson maintained his composure while replying, “No. It’s just that I’m curious about what happened.”.
“Hahaha, what your mentor owes me is not just a simple favor. It won’t be so easy for him to clear up his debt,” said Hugh.
Kayson portrayed a look of helplessness and sighed. “It seems like I will just have to work harder then.”
Hugh replied to Kayson with a wise smile, “Well, there’s no need to work too hard for it. If you and Sadie can give me a great-grandchild, we will consider the favor to be returned!”
Kayson kept quiet. ‘Sadie and I? That’s going to be a tough nut to crack!’
Although Kayson was okay with Sadie, he was clear that Sadie felt repulsed by a poor chap like him, and there was just no chemistry.
“Checkmate!” Hugh won the match and stood up. “I’m tired. Looks like age has finally caught up with me. Let’s call it a night.”
“Okay.” Kayson collected and kept the chess pieces before heading upstairs to Sadie’s room.
As he went in, Sadie glanced in his direction but did not make a commotion. However, she asked Kayson with a cold stare, “When you left work today, did you get into a VW Beetle?”
“Yes-.” Kayson was speaking halfway when Sadie abruptly interrupted him. “It’s alright. I do not need an explanation. We are not in a relationship anyway. However, I just want to remind you to be more cautious in the future. If Grandpa learns about this, I won’t let it go lightly!”
