The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 1010

Chapter 1010

“You never told me who you gave those jade chess pieces I gifted you!"

His words detonated like a bomb in the crowd.

Everyone was too stunned to speak. From the sounds of it, Mr. Eugene seemed to have quite the relationship with Arabella.

The jade chess set that Mr. Eugene mentioned, could it be the same one that caused a sensation worldwide?

It was rumored that the selection process for the jade stones was rigorous, any stones with cracks, uneven color, or too small were dismissed as materials.

It took three years to select the materials and another three to craft the 361 pieces, all by hand. Each piece was valued at $20,000.

When it was finished, it drew the attention of many chess collectors. In the end, Mr. Eugene bought it for $18 million, treating it as a treasure.

But now, it seemed that Arabella had given away that priceless chess set after Mr. Eugene gifted it to her!

How dare Arabella?

That was a gift from Mr. Eugene himself!

Even if they ignored the immense value, the sentiment behind the gift was not something she could just disregard!

She was being utterly disrespectful!

Arabella smirked, asking with interest, "Are you looking to settle old scores, Grandpa Eugene?"

That chess set was given to her by Mr. Eugene when he lost a game to her!

Fair and square.

It was hers, and she was free to do with it as she pleased.

"That chess set was my pride and joy. I insist that you play a game of chess with me today!" Mr. Eugene demanded.

“Here?” Arabella glanced around. The crowd had grown quite large, blocking every exit.

The old man was ecstatic, "Right here!"

He had finally found her. How could he not satisfy his craving for a chess game?
