Ellen was stunned for a moment. She got angry and followed Hedy, trying to pick on Hedy, “Who do you think you are to talk to me with such an attitude? Believe it or not, I’ll…”
“Stop it!” Vincent grabbed Ellen and shouted in a low voice, “When you opened your wallet, the bank card fell on the ground by itself. No one took it!”
“What?” Ellen lowered her head. Sure enough, she saw a bank card on the ground.
She leaned over to pick up the bank card and looked up, aggrieved and weeping,
“Vincent, this woman threatened me and said she would send me to jail…”
Vincent turned a blind eye, came to Hedy, and thanked earnestly, Thank you for helping us get the wallet back. I apologize for her rudeness.”

“It was a… draw!” Ronin muttered, falling headlong in front of Grace.
“Dad!” Grace quickly helped her father to rest on the small bed in the cubicle.
She skillfully prepared the hangover beverage and medicine. She was used to dealing with such situations.
“Draw! Draw!” the drunk Ronin shouted angrily, full of unwillingness and humility.
Grace stopped tidying up, and couldn’t help crying.
Hedy came to the door of the cubicle, and her eyes fell on Ronin who closed his eyes tightly.

After a long while, she said in a low voice, “It’s his obsession after the competition in the early years.
“The big game where he was sent off because of a fight?” Hedy blinked, thinking of the past about Ronin.

“The prize money of the competition was enough to pay for my surgery, so my dad immediately signed up for the competition.
“On the day of the competition, my condition deteriorated, and the hospital kept calling him. He was so distracted and worried that he lost games one after another.
“It came to the most critical round when my dad met the person he hated the most, his former best friend who had stolen his wife and deliberately pissed him off at the game Jackson Jones.
“It was different then. Jackson was one of the most promising candidates to win the championship, well-dressed and complacent.
“My dad, with his unshaven beard and shabby clothes, sat across from
him.
“My dad had to take care of me, so he didn’t have as much time to practice chess as before, and he was no match for Jackson.
“When my dad was about to lose, he begged Jackson to make a draw.
“As long as they could draw in this round and neither side lost points, my dad could play in the next round, and there would be hope to win the surgery fee for me.
“But Jackson refused.
“No matter how much my dad begged, he just would not agree.
“In the end, Jackson won. The next day, the headline in the newspaper was very eye-catching, “The humble pleadings of the former genius could not stop the birth of a new chess king.”
“Some people satirized, saying that my mom had betrayed my dad because he was too incompetent and he deserved it.”

Grace burst into tears again, “This game was the last straw for my dad. If the former principal of Lowell High School hadn’t extended a helping hand, invited him to teach chess at the school, and helped him pay for the surgery, I wouldn’t be alive today.
“Now, my dad is teaching chess in high school, and Jackson is the president of the Chess Association. As long as my dad doesn’t stop playing chess, he will think of the painful experience Jackson brought him every day.
