Richest Mogul

Chapter 1885

Manfred had initially let Vivian win in their chess game, hoping to entertain her

and make her happy. However, as they continued playing, Vivian's skills began to impress him.

Vivian had long noticed that Manfred was deliberately letting her win, but she didn't point it out.

Instead, she subtly showcased her abilities, keeping things balanced between them. It became a true exchange of skill, each trying to outplay the other.

Vivian quickly realized that Manfred was an excellent opponent. He remained completely focused throughout the game.

He was truly exceptional at strategizing, and before long, she found herself caught in the trap he had carefully set. However, Vivian was no pushover either.

They went back and forth, each move a careful response to the other's strategy.

Just as they were deep into the game, a maid's voice came from the door, announcing that the bath water was ready.
