Chapter 207 Kneel Before Her
Hans only pulled Kelsea toward him and uttered, “Get on your knees.”
Kelsea could not believe that Hans was asking her to kneel despite hearing what had happened earlier.
Scrunching up her face, she refused to get on her knees.
“I won’t! The only ones I will kneel before are my parents and my mentor. I’ll never get on my knees in front of her for a ridiculous chess game.”
Everett frowned and agreed with Kelsea. “Mr. Jewell, I don’t think that there’s a need for her to kneel. Even if they did make a promise, kneeling seems a little too much. I’d say Ms. Moore is at fault for this, not Kelsea.”
Kelsea glanced at Everett with a grateful look. She was sure that others would listen to Everett’s words, for he was Han’s favorite student.
Yet, Hans’ expression remained grim as he uttered, “I’m asking you to get on your knees. Ev, get on your knees as well.”
Instantly, Kelsea and Everett both widened their eyes.
Confounded, Kelsea asked, “Why? Mr. Jewell, it’s one thing for me to kneel before her, but why are you asking Everett to kneel too? What has he done wrong?”
Unlike the agitated Kelsea, Everett was first to calm down.
He was sure that his mentor was not someone unreasonable.
In the next second, Hans announced, “That’s because she’s my mentor, and therefore, your mentor as well.”
Those words made Kelsea freeze.
With trembling lips, she whispered, “W-What did you just say?”
Hans repeated, “She’s technically your mentor as well. She’s the mentor I learned from while I was in Lightspring. She’s the one who had come up with Lightspring Maneuver.”
Everyone fell silent.
They had only heard of Hans meeting an excellent chess player overseas, but they had never expected his mentor to be so young… and pretty.
Vinson, too, glanced at Arielle, but there was more admiration in his eyes than shock.
