But he kept his thoughts to himself.

Perhaps it was because they didn't know each other well yet.

At the start, both Old Master Fisher and Franklin were playing somewhat erratically.

But as time went on, they seemed to get a better sense of each other's style. Old Master Fisher favored an aggressive strategy, while Franklin worked on defending while also trying to create new opportunities. Tappeared that Franklin was struggling a bit.

In reality...

Maggie watched closely, her focus intensifying.

Johnny, who also understood chess, turned to her and asked, "Who do you think will win?"

Maggie replied, "It's hard to say."

Julia and Levi, who were seated nearby, overheard Maggie's vague answer and thought it was no different than saying nothing at all.

But Johnny knew she had more to say, though she just didn't want to say it out loud.

Maggie did indeed feel it was hard to say.

Because while Franklin appeared to be at a disadvantage most of the time, he always found ways to turn

the tables.

Or rather, he could have been leading Old Master Fisher into following his moves.

It was always made to look evenly matched.

However...

The reason she said it was hard to say wasn't because she didn't know how the game would end.

It was because she wasn't sure if Franklin wanted to win.

As a junior, if he didn't want to win against Old Master Fisher...

She was still thinking about this when Old Master Fisher chuckled and said to Franklin, "Young man from the Wilson family, while I may not be a great expert, you're being too polite. I'm starting to get annoyed, you know?" Franklin smiled, "It's been a while since I played, my hands are a bit rusty,"

Old Master Fisher snorted and ignored him.

In fact, Old Master Fisher was quite skilled, but after more than ten minutes, he finally lost a piece and

was defeated by Franklin.

Old Master Fisher didn't get angry. Instead, he was even more excited and wanted to test Franklin's true abilities.

Franklin smiled and gestured for him to continue.

Old Master Fisher, not one to be modest, began the next round.

This time, Franklin played a much more aggressive game. Old Master Fisher stared at him, and Franklin laughed, "You're too kind."

Old Master Fisher was quite pleased, as he hadn't experienced such a quick and clean defeat in a long

time.

He challenged Franklin to another round.

Before they began, he said, "Show me your real skill. Don't think you can fool me just because I'm getting older."

Franklin replied, "You're mistaken, Old Master."

"Hmph." Old Master Fisher didn't pay him any more attention and focused seriously on the game.

Of course, in this

und, he lost again.

He placed his pieces down, stood up, and said, "I admit defeat, you're truly skilled."

Before Franklin could respond, Old Master Fisher added, "Anyone else want to take a turn? Not to defeat him, but at least stop him from winning so easily." Maggie was reviewing their chess game when she heard the words, and her heart skipped a beat.

At that moment, she heard Julia say, "Old Fisher, after watching your match, I'm really tempted to try. But my skills are limited, so if I were to face Frank, I'm afraid-"

"It's alright, it's alright, I was just joking earlier," Old Fisher laughed, "Since you're interested, let's do it."

Julia was about to respond when someone else laughed and said, "Miss Brown, judging from your words, whether you win or lose is really hard to say, haha."

"Exactly, even though President Wilson's chess skills are remarkable, if he were to win against Miss Brown, I'm afraid he'd have to kneel on durians when he gets home, right?" As the voice spoke, many people around burst into laughter.

Did Fisher hadn't known about the relationship between Julia and Franklin.

At this moment, seeing Julia's outstanding appearance and confident demeanor, he thought she did indeed seem well-matched with Franklin.

He chuckled and teased Franklin, "Oh? If that's the case, I'll be watching closely to see if you can still be as relaxed with me as you are when playing chess with your girlfriend."

Julia, now the center of attention, was unruffled. She turned to Franklin and said, "I'm not someone who can't accept defeat. Let's just play a normal game."

A faint smile appeared on Franklin's handsome face. "Alright."

Someone couldn't help but comment, "They haven't even started yet, and they're already showing off their affection."

"Showing affection is one thing, but Miss Brown is a top graduate with a PhD from a world-class university. With her confidence, her chess skills are definitely not to be underestimated." Old Fisher, who hadn't known much about Julia before, said, "So you're a PhD graduate, huh?" He then turned to Franklin, saying, "You've got a good eye, young man." Johnny, who had been quietly observing, rolled his eyes.

Actually, he had intended to ask Maggie if she wanted to join the game.

But before he could speak, Julia interrupted him.

Now, watching the scene unfold, he felt a headache coming on. He pursed his lips and muttered, "If you're going to play, just play. Why so much talk?"

His voice was soft, but Maggie and Harry still heard him.

Maggie smiled slightly.

Harry glanced at her. Seeing that her expression was calm, neither happy nor sad, he felt a little

reassured.

At this point, Franklin and Julia officially began their game.

Maggie could tell that Julia really knew how to play chess. She wasn't a beginner.

However...

After watching for a while, Maggie shifted her gaze away.
