Chapter 428 Grandpa Dave knew that he was going to lose after looking at the placements of Sean‘s w
hite pieces.
‘He‘s so young, yet so intelligent.‘
However, it was not too late, and Grandpa Dave still had a chance to turn the game around.
Grandpa Dave got serious and moved his black piece. Molly had watched them play for quite some tim
e now, so she could understand what was going on and her chess skills were improving too.
The battle between Sean and Grandpa Dave was so intense that Molly felt kind of intense too just
from watching at the side.
However, it was not right for a spectator to make any comments in a chess game,
so she tried her best to control herself and watched the game quietly.
Sean knew that it would not be easy for him to trick Grandpa Dave, so he had a backup plan.
Grandpa Dave could not help but smack on his thigh after the game was coming to an end.
“You scheming fox!” Grandpa Dave was so angry that he started laughing. He did not expect

very much.
Sean smiled faintly and said, “You‘re too kind.”
Having a better strategy was
the way to win a chess game. There was no reason for Grandpa Dave to feel dissatisfied since Sean
was clearly better than him. He was not expecting Sean to take a dive just because he was older anyw
ay. Otherwise, the game would be pointless!
Molly was still looking at the chess board. The white pieces were like a pack of
cunning wolves; the black pieces were like an ambush of vicious tigers. The wolves had the tigers surro
unded in the end, and the tigers could not find a way to free themselves to defeat the wolves.
‘But… the game is not over yet.‘
Molly arched her brows as she said with her head down,” It‘s not a checkmate.”
Sean and Grandpa Dave started to be interested in the game again because of what she said.
“Is it?” Sean was curious.
Grandpa Dave was happy and surprised. “Are you sure?” He asked.
“Yeah. It looks like a checkmate , but it‘s actually not!” Molly picked up a black piece.
Then, she placed it down on the chess board after saying
that.
It was a very threatening move to Sean’s white pieces. On the other hand, the tigers just got another
chance to turn the table around!
Sean started to look stern as he looked at the chess board seriously again. He picked up a white
piece after thinking for a while before continuing the game.
Grandpa saw that and he was delighted as he happily said, “Hahaha, even Molly knows how to play ch
ess now. That move was not bad, and it looks like she‘s talented! Like grandpa like granddaughter.”
“Grandpa , you‘re way better than me.” Molly smiled as she made another move after Sean made his.
Grandpa Dave replaced Molly as the spectator. The
awareness of the overall game and mindset was the key to winning the game since it was
already coming to an end. However, both of them were extremely calm.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVery soon, the game was over.
Sean held his white piece for a long time before placing it down. He stared at the chess
board and realized that he had nowhere to place it. It seemed like he could not put up a fight anymore.
In the end, Sean exhaled deeply, and he put the white piece back into the chess box.
He looked at Molly admirably as he earnestly said, “Well
done.”
He was very happy that Molly won the game. However, Molly could only win because he threw the gam
e last time. He did not expect her skill to grow so quickly.
Molly was very humble. She waved her hand and said, “I was just cutting corners. My
skills are nowhere comparable to the both of you.” Molly could only
win the game because of how Sean and Grandpa Dave placed their pieces before she took over.
There was no way that she could defeat Sean if they played a new game.
She still remembered how badly she lost previously.
“Sean, the Mays are very supportive of one another. You better not be angry at me because I got mysel
f a helper! Haha!” Grandpa Dave was very happy that his granddaughter frustrated the fox.
