Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire
Chapter 206 Do You Have The Right Thatâsâ¦
Kelsea Morganâs eyes lit up as she rushed toward the elderly man. At the same time, she proudly shouted, âMr. Jewell, youâre here!â
The others instinctively turned toward where Kelsea was. Then, they saw the founder of Haut Monde, Hans Jewell. With the help of his assistant, he was walking toward them with a cane.
Almost immediately, looks of respect crept onto everyoneâs faces.
Even the usually expressionless Everett Eakins walked over to lower his head at Hans and greeted, âMr. Jewell.â
Hans nodded. âIâm old, and itâs now inconvenient for me to travel around. I wasnât planning to come, but I heard that someone has solved Lightspring Maneuver.â
Everett nodded. âYes. Someone has solved Lightspring Maneuver. This is the person.â
Just as Everett was about to move aside to introduce Arielle to Hans, Kelsea huffed. âWhat Lightspring Maneuver? Mr. Jewell, you have no idea that Lightspring Maneuver is nothing but a mocking move.
This isnât chess at all!â
Frowning, Hans scolded, âKelsea, mind your words. This is my mentorâs game youâre talking about.
How could you say that itâs not chess?â
Kelsea hurriedly pulled Hans closer and pointed at the board. âMr. Jewell, look. Donât look at the chess pieces, but at the white pieces alone. What does it look like?â
âWhat does it look like?â Hans narrowed his eyes before widening them. âFool! I see. Once you fill in the Os, youâll resolve the tactic.â
When Kelsea saw the way Hans was all excited, she furrowed her brows. âBut Mr. Jewell, donât you think that this has no place as a chess tactic? Itâs clearly just mocking the opponent as an idiot.â
However, Hans was uninterested in her words. Turning to the crowd instead, he asked, âQuick, someone tell me. Who resolved this? I must meet them.â
âItâs me,â came a clear voice.
Arielle then emerged from behind the crowd and smiled at Hans. âOld boy, is Kelsea your student?â
The moment Hans saw Arielle, his eyes lit up.
Isnât this my mentor?
However, upon hearing Arielleâs words, Kelsea snapped, âArielle, what did you just call my mentor? Old boy? Do you think you have the right to do that? Hurry and apologize to my mentor right away!â
Hans waved his hand dismissively. âItâs fine, itâs fine.â
However, Kelsea shook her head. âMr. Jewell, youâre a big-hearted man for not holding her accountable for this, but we canât just keep quiet and watch her do that. Donât you know that this woman was born in a village? She has no sense of culture and manners. I lost in that ridiculous game, but sheâs demanding me to get on my knees! Donât you think that sheâs crossing the line?â
Now that Kelseaâs backup was here, there was no way she was not going to stand up for herself.
After all, she did not want others to think that she lacked sportsmanship.
Many around her were also Hansâ students, and they too commented, âItâs rude to call someone that.â
âMs. Moore, even if youâre brilliant in chess, Mr. Jewell is the leading figure of the world of chess here in this country. Please have some respect.â
Right as Vinson was about to speak on behalf of Arielle, Hans knocked the ground with his cane.
âThatâs enough.â
The others instantly fell silent, waiting for Hans to demand an apology from Arielle himself.
