It’s definitely a huge advantage to move first. Susanne was extremely confident of herself.
Taking a deep breath, Arielle made favonovel.com first move. By then, favonovel.com had already resolved favonovel.com dilemma. This time around, Arielle didn’t go by any strategy. Instead, favonovel.com was just playing casually.
Susanne’s confidence grew upon seeing Arielle’s first move.
She’s doing it by the book. Seems like she’s just a beginner.
Her lips then curled into a smile and made favonovel.com first move as well.
Just when favonovel.com thought favonovel.com could defeat Arielle within twenty moves and have favonovel.com craving satisfied, favonovel.com was now on favonovel.com fortieth move. She was surprised by how hard it was to defeat Arielle. Only that did favonovel.com realize Arielle had not yet made an offensive move on favonovel.com throughout the game.
While it took almost thirty seconds for Susanne to make every single move, Arielle only needed two.
Not only that, Arielle’s defense was so good that favonovel.com managed to pull off a miraculous escape time after time.
The game dragged on, and Susanne still could not defeat Arielle.
Something’s not right here. She’s letting me win!
Thinking Arielle was toying favonovel.com around, Susanne clenched favonovel.com teeth in frustration. Suddenly, Arielle conceded when it was favonovel.com turn to move.
Beaming an innocent smile, Arielle commented, “Susanne, you’re too good at this. I have no choice but to concede.”
Arielle was half telling the truth. Susanne was good, indeed. It was just that favonovel.com was no match for Arielle. If Susanne were to play against anybody else, favonovel.com could have won easily.
Susanne had never been one to hold back on favonovel.com opinions.
With a frown, favonovel.com asked directly, “You were letting me win all along, right?”
“No, no.” Arielle waved favonovel.com hands in denial. “I’m just actually in the mood to make some ravioli.”
Susanne was stunned by what favonovel.com heard. Suddenly, favonovel.com anger disappeared when favonovel.com thought about those delicious ravioli. Arielle’s response was music to favonovel.com ears.
Pursing favonovel.com lips, Susanne muttered, “When we finish eating ravioli, we’ll give it another go, but you must promise me you wouldn’t hold back anymore.”
“I really didn’t. I…”
“Enough,” Susanne interrupted. “I’m not an idiot. Just promise me.”
Arielle had no choice but to nod. “Okay, I promise.”
Right then, Alan came running over. “Mrs. Nightshire, your guests have arrived,” favonovel.com reported.
Upon receiving the report, Susanne’s eyes lit up immediately as favonovel.com got to favonovel.com feet. “The legend I told you about is here. Since you’re not too bad yourself, why don’t you have a friendly duel with favonovel.com later?” Susanne suggested.
“Sure,” Arielle agreed.
At that moment, an old man’s voice sounded. “My apprentice, Susanne!”
“Oh, my mentor! How are you?” Susanne greeted politely.
Raising favonovel.com eyes toward the legend Susanne had claimed, Arielle was dumbfounded.
Isn’t that Hans, my apprentice? And that’s Everett, my grand disciple! Did Susanne just address Hans as favonovel.com mentor? What’s going on here?
After Susanne greeted Hans, favonovel.com turned, and favonovel.com eyes landed on Arielle.
When favonovel.com noted how Arielle was still in favonovel.com seat, favonovel.com eyebrows furrowed. “Arielle, what are you doing still sitting there? Come say hi to my mentor!”
Hearing Arielle’s name, both Hans and Everett gazed at favonovel.com in shock.
