Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks novel Chapter 635

Chapter 635

Cherise’s words successfully tickled Carson’s funny bone, lightening the atmosphere. “Alright, very well, let’s have some coffee. After coffee, we’ll have a good game of chess. It’s been ages since we last played together

“Sure!” replied Cherise.

They drank two cups of coffee before Cherise moved the chessboard over.

The chessboard she brought over was for Gomoku, not the chess they usually played.

After moving it, they sat opposite each other.

“Here, Cherise, you take the white pieces, and I’ll take the black ones. How about that?”

“Alright, as you say.”

With that, Carson placed the first black piece at an intersection of the board.

Then, Cherise took out a white piece and placed it steadily on the board.

The white jade piece made a crisp sound as it landed.

Kitten, lying behind the bookshelf, lazily lifted his head, yawned, and then buried his head back down, closing his eyes.

Just two seconds later, Kitten suddenly lifted his head again.

His eyes widened for a few seconds before narrowing.

It seemed he had sensed a hint of danger.

Without getting up, his fur bristled, and the vigilance of a beast encountering a hunter was evident to him.

At the same time, after Carson placed the black piece on the board, his gaze also changed slightly.

Then, after exchanging a glance with Cherise, they continued their game unaffected.

The second hand of the old wall clock in the study ticked away. The next second, the sliding door of the study was opened. The person standing at the door was none other than Tristan, who was currently in the eye of the storm.

He looked at them, who were still calmly playing chess, unaffected by his sudden entrance.

He let out a low chuckle, “Oh, isn’t this Morris’s wife, Cherise? You’re here too. It seems my trip here was really worth it.

“I didn’t expect Mr. Dorian Finch and Mrs. Chivers to be in such a good mood. On such a fine day, instead of going out for a walk, you two are hiding in the study playing Gomoku? I wonder if I may join your game.”

Cherise and Carson remained completely undisturbed.

“Master, it’s your turn!”

Carson picked up the last black piece and placed it on the board. This time, the movement was not light.

It was heavier, creating a sound that was not crisp but somewhat grating.

“Master, I lost, willingly admitting defeat!”

Carson laughed heartily, “You’re too kind! Today, you were definitely going easy on me.”

“I know what you want me to do, and I advise you not to waste your effort. The will of heaven is already set, and all your actions are in vain.”

Hearing this, Tristan did not retreat but instead took a step forward. “Master, I call you that out of respect for the years you nurtured me.

“To be honest, over the years, I haven’t treated my own parents as well as I’ve treated you. Why can’t you help me?

“Moreover, I said I wouldn’t leave empty–handed today.

“If you still refuse to go with me willingly, don’t blame me for being rude. I’m sorry! Master, shall I push your wheelchair and take you with me?”

Carson’s tone grew firmer. “No way!”

With that, Tristan bowed deeply to Carson, and then his expression changed drastically. “Then I’ll have to offend you, Mr. Dorian Finch! Come on, help me take Mr. Dorian Finch back!”

As soon as he spoke, dozens of men in black poured into the study from all directions.

They all seemed highly skilled and moved with remarkable agility.

The men, eyeing Carson who had no legs, prepared to approach him in a disciplined manner.

However, as soon as their legs stepped into the study, Kitten roared and shot out from behind the bookshelf at lightning speed, standing in front of Cherise and Carson.

It bared its huge, bloodthirsty mouth, with two sharp fangs aimed at the intruders.
