Johnny also watched for a while, but then, for some unknown reason, he rolled his eyes again. He felt like he couldn’t stay any longer. 

Seeing that Maggie seemed uninterested in continuing to watch, he asked, “Do you want to go back to Maggie’s side and sit for a bit? Have something to eat?” 

Maggie shook her head. “No need. Let’s wait a bit longer.” 

Harry had noticed earlier than Johnny that Maggie’s attention had shifted away from the chessboard. 

When Franklin and Old Fisher were playing, he saw that Maggie had been very focused. But now, with 

Franklin and Julia playing, she had only watched for a short while before losing interest. 

Although the game between Franklin and Julia was quite engaging, Harry could tell that Julia’s chess 

skills were still not at the level of Old Fisher, let alone Franklin. 

But she was certainly very skilled. 

Maggie’s reaction seemed to imply that… 

“She’s okay, I guess.” 

Just then, Old Hall’s voice suddenly came from the side. 

He and Jimmy, no one knew when they had arrived, were now standing next to Old Fisher. 

Old Fisher smiled and said, “She’s pretty good, indeed.” 

After a moment, Old Fisher turned to Jimmy and asked, “Why didn’t you bring your paintings over? 

“I was worried you’d say I wasn’t being attentive, so I came over to check,” Jimmy replied with a grin. 

“Go, go, go, get busy with your own things. Don’t disturb me while I’m watching the game,” Old Fisher said with a wave.

Jimmy, however, didn’t leave. 

The Brown and Green families, upon hearing Old Fisher and Jimmy praise Julia, were visibly pleased.

Many people in the room were already familiar with Julia. 

As expected, she was someone who could make both others admire and envy her. 

After all, Julia had both beauty and a stellar educational background. Now, with her chess skills catching the attention of Old Fisher and Jimmy, she had become the focus of admiration. 

Furthermore, Julia’s charm had won Franklin’s deep affection, which had helped elevate both the Brown 

and Green families in status. 

With a daughter like this, who wouldn’t want such a blessing? 

Some people couldn’t help but express their envy, saying, “Old Mrs. Brown, Mr. Brown, Mrs. Brown, you 

really have a wonderful granddaughter, a great daughter!” 

“Indeed, indeed,” others chimed in, following up with, “Could you share with us how you raised her so well, so outstanding? We’re all friends, Old Madam, Mrs. Brown, would you be willing to share some parenting tips with us?” 

Soon, the ladies from the elite families surrounded Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Green. 

Julia, receiving so much praise and admiration, couldn’t help but feel proud. Tracy shared in her delight. 

She glanced at Maggie, who was standing over there, and smirked, whispering to Janice, “Compared to Julie, she’s really just standing on the sidelines.” 

Janice’s face grew cold, clearly displeased that Tracy was comparing her daughter to Maggie. 

The Brown family, including Old Lady Brown and Logan, also overheard Tracy’s words. 

They too turned to look at Maggie. 

Indeed, in every regard, Julia was clearly superior to Maggie. 

Thinking this, they returned their attention to Julia, their gazes filled with warmth and affection. 

At this moment, Julia stood up and said to Old Fisher, “Sorry, I lost.” 

Old Fisher smiled kindly and said, “Even if you lost, you did very well. After all, not everyone is like that young man from the Wilson family. A young person who is good at both studying and playing chess like you is already very rare.” 

Hearing Old Fisher’s praise, Julia smiled modestly. “You flatter me, Old Fisher.”

Old Fisher then asked, “Would you like to try again?” 

Julia shook her head with a smile. “One round of showing off is enough. I’ll leave the opportunity for 

others.” 

Old Fisher, still enthusiastic, asked, “Is anyone else going to play?” 

A silence fell over the room. 

Harry, who had been watching, turned his gaze to Franklin. Only then did he realize that Franklin was 

holding a piece of chess and was looking directly at him. 

Just then, Maggie stepped forward and said to Franklin, “How about a game?” 

Franklin paused with the chess piece in his hand and looked up, his gaze locking with hers.
