Chapter 810

Chapter 810:

The layout on the phone matched the one on the board exactly. Kristian was cheating!

“Kristian, what are you...” Liam's words trailed off as his eyes dropped to Kristian’s phone—blatantly being used

to cheat—then flicked back to him with a knowing look.

Kristian stiffened for the briefest second. It was instantly clear to him that he’d been caught red-handed.

“What?” Lionel snapped, cutting him off before he could say another word, his tone suddenly cold and laced with

stern command. “Sportsmanship starts with silence during another's turn. Not a sound.”

Liam threw him a few more curious glances.

Kristian, offering only a fleeting look in return, resumed the gwithout so much as a tremble. His calm was

almost unnerving.

Though questions swirled in his head, Liam chose not to call him out right then. Instead, he quietly took a seat

nearby, deciding to bring it up once the match was over.

Using anto cheat wasn’t something Kristian would normally stoop to.

Kristian didn’t stay in the gwith Lionel much longer. After three rounds, he found a convenient excuse to

wrap it up.

The real reason was simple—his phone had died.

“What's going on with you today?” Lionel frowned at the chessboard, scrutinizing the pieces.

Kristian responded smoothly, “What do you mean?”

“The way you played these last three games—it’s nothing like your usual style,” Lionel said, his expression

caught somewhere between confusion and suspicion. “And your skill level's taken a nosedive. What's up with

that?”

“Maybe I'm just tired from flying,” Kristian answered with practiced ease. “I couldn't really concentrate.”

Lionel brushed the excuse aside almost immediately.

Exhaustion or a distracted mind wouldn't explain such a tic shift in strategy, as if he were playing with

someone else’s brain. “Forget it,” Lionel muttered, deciding not to push further, assuming Kristian was still bitter

over earlier issues. “Get srest. We'll have a proper rematch in a few days.”

Kristian gave a brief nod. “Alright.”

They packed away the pieces and left it at that.

Kristian made his way to the backyard, intending to get sair. As soon as he sat down, Liam sauntered over,

wearing a mischievous grin. Kristian glanced at him but stayed quiet.

Liam slid into the chair beside him, propping his head on one hand and half-teasing, asked, “Kristian, don’t you

have something to say?”

“Say what?”

“I saw you using your phone to cheat,” Liam said bluntly. “Aren’t you scared I'll tell Grandpa?”

“If you're so eager to send him into a rage, be my guest,” Kristian said flatly, playing his part to perfection,

though his mind was miles away. “Doesn’t bother me.”
