Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 526

Chapter 526 You Kneel Too

At Warren’s gleefulness, Sophie was visibly disaffected. “Master Reynolds, don’t you think this completely disobeys the true essence of chess? She’s obviously insulting her opponent! How distasteful!”

Nevertheless, Warren disregarded her words and grabbed Richard, excitedly questioning, “Where’s the person, the person who broke through the tactic? I must see them for myself!”

“I’m here.” A clear, treble timbre traveled from within the crowd behind him.

Warren turned around and saw Elise steadily standing beside Kenneth. “So Sophie’s your student, huh, Old Reynolds?”

When Warren turned around and saw Elise, he almost forgot to breathe.

Seeing her so complacent, Sophie rushed forward and rebuked, “Show some respect, Elise Sinclair! ‘Old Reynolds’? Who do you think you are to call my master that? You better kneel down and apologize, and we might look past this! Or else…”

Thump!

Before she could finish, Warren was already kneeling on the ground.

“Master, wha—” Sophie was dazed and turned to the direction he was kneeling toward, only to see Elise in the way. He’s kneeling to Elise?

“You kneel too!” Warren even raised his head to scold her.

However, Sophie simply wouldn’t kneel. She stared at Warren in stupefaction, thinking her master must have gone insane.

“No way. I’d naturally kneel before my parents and master, but for a dumb game of Scrabble? Not a chance!”

Richard attempted to pull Warren up. “Master Reynolds, even I think kneeling is a bit much. Even though they have their personal bet, kneeling is still fatal to her pride. Miss Sinclair is just being difficult and overly competitive, and Sophie doesn’t deserve this.”

Sophie was immensely grateful to Richard’s words. Since Richard’s words carried more weight in Warren’s ears than those of hers, she assumed that Warren would spare her her pride.

Little did she expect, Warren was much more persistent. With vexation written all over his face, he infuriatingly grasped his walking stick and struck the floor. “If you still take me as your teacher, kneel down this instance!”
