Chapter 201 Extremely Talented,A Beauty with Multiple Masks
Kelsea thought that Arielle had not heard of him before. Rolling her eyes, she sneered, “You really are a dimwit. How can you not know who Mr. Jewell is? Let me tell you now. He is the founder of this annual event called the Haut Monde. If you don’t even know who he is, what gives you the right to attend this banquet?”
From her perspective, an ignorant country bumpkin like Arielle doesn’t deserve to be invited to such a prestigious event. Kelsea added snarkily, “If you know what’s good for you, you should leave right now. Don’t wait till I have wiped you out in the game.
By then, even your mom wouldn’t be able to recognize what’s left of you.” Just a moment ago, Arielle had a relaxed expression on. In fact, she had planned to play to a draw with Kelsea so as to not humiliate her. After all, she was Carter’s cousin. But after Kelsea brought up her mom, Arielle’s gaze turned frosty instead. Giving her an icy glare, Arielle asserted, “You wanted to know why am I worthy to be here? I’ll show you by defeating you in two minutes.” “Hah?” Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Kelsea responded as if she had heard something ridiculous. Rubbing her eyes, she wiped away her tears of laughter. She replied to Arielle in a condescending tone, “My dear, you can’t actually believe that you will be undefeated till the end?
To be honest, the reason you won your earlier games was that your opponents weren’t very good anyway. You were lucky not to have faced anyone strong. In fact, you can’t even beat my friends, let alone me!” “Is that so? What happens if I beat you?”
Despite her chilly gaze, Arielle was grinning ear to ear. Kelsea scoffed, “If you beat me, I will kneel and admit my defeat to you in front of everyone here! However, if you lose, you will do the same and apologize for your impudence.” Arielle chuckled. “Do we have a deal?” Kelsea gritted her teeth.
“We do!” Arielle scratched her ear. “In that case, see you at the chessboard.” With that, Arielle left in search of Vinson without saying another word. As for Kelsea, she was utterly infuriated by Arielle’s attitude. She swore to herself that she would make Arielle kneel before her in defeat. Clenching her fists, Kelsea turned around and headed for the break room. She needed to carefully consider which strategy to adopt in her attempt to decisively defeat Arielle. Meanwhile, Arielle found Vinson who was chatting with someone else. When Vinson saw her, his frosty expression broke into a smile.
He remarked, “Congratulations. I heard that you’re still undefeated.” Arielle humbly replied, “I’m just lucky to not have encountered anyone strong. However, the opposite seems true for you as you kept drawing formidable opponents. I didn’t expect you to be so good in chess though.” “Everyone has their hobbies.”
Just as he spoke, Vinson gestured toward a man who looked to be born of mixed parentage and introduced him to Arielle. “This is Mr. Eakins and he is Mr. Jewell’s favorite student. According to Mr. Jewell, Mr. Eakins is now a better player than he is. If you beat your opponent later, you will have to face him.”
Arielle had heard Hans mention Everett before. At that time, Hans told her that he had a very talented student, Everett. Therefore, she now had the opportunity to face her student’s student. After all, she was looking forward to seeing for herself how talented Everett was given the fact that Hans held him in such high regard.
