The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

Piper looked pale as a ghost.

Wallace bit his lower lip hard, "I'm sorry."

He hadn't performed well, leading their team to a loss in the chess match, embarrassing them all!

Piper hadn't expected Wallace to drop the ball like this. A flicker of disdain passed through her eyes, but she mustered her strength and put on a solemn face. "Wallace, it's okay to lose once. It's all about keeping a cool head. You'll need to work on that." Wallace pursed his lips.

His mental game was off.

Losing to Ulysses wasn't a one-time occurrence.

The harder he tried, the more elusive victory seemed!

Keegan returned, "Piper, I'll go up for a match. The old man has already agreed to come over."

His experience and calm demeanor made dragging out a game for an hour seem like no big deal.

"Okay."

Keegan stepped up to the plate, and Ulysses, noticing his arrival, toned down his usual intensity, greeting him, "Please, take a seat."

Keegan and Ulysses weren't from the same era of players; this was their first face-off.
