Female Novel
Chapter 314 Chess Is a Gamble
"Ms. Lewis, what do you think?"
Grace could guess Max's intention, but she made herself clear. "Max, putting chess aside, you have to
give me an explanation."
Max reset all the chess pieces. While rearranging the pieces, he spoke calmly, "Of course. Let's use
this game to determine the winner.
"If you win, you can take Shane away, and I won't say another word. If you lose, we'll forget anything
happened, and we can put this in the past."
The general idea was that the chess game was like a gamble.
Upon hearing Max's words, Shane's expression relaxed a bit. He knew Max was protecting him. After
all, Max's chess skills were second to none in Pamore.
Grace had no chance of winning against him.
"So, Ms. Lewis, what do you say?"
Shane couldn't help but jest, knowing that if Grace agreed, she would undoubtedly lose.
Grace shook her head.
Max thought she was backing out. His expression darkened, but to his surprise, Grace added, "The
stakes seem a bit too small for this gamble."
Max was very intrigued.
"What do you propose?"
Grace looked at him gravely and said, "How about we add more weight to the stakes? What do younovelbin
think?
"I think you've been in power for quite some time. How about we change the player?"
Shane burst out, "Grace, what do you mean? How dare you suggest taking down Max? You would
have to go through us!"
Grace ignored him and looked at Max.
"If you lose, I'll change the helm of your little faction. How about that?"
Max's face darkened, seemingly evaluating the sincerity of Grace's words.
Sensing that she wasn't joking, he regained his confidence and said, "Ms. Lewis, if you win, I'll give up
my position to you. I'm willing to acknowledge you as the leader and follow your orders. I will heed your
every command."
His statement left everyone around them stunned.
No one had expected Max to make such a big bet on a simple chess game.
The entire fate of their gang was subjected to this game.
As everyone was confused, Max added, "But if I win, in addition to putting our past behind, I want you,
Grace, to marry me."
The surrounding people went into an uproar.
In unison, they cheered, "Max! Max! Max!"
Grace's face instantly turned dark.
"So, what do you say?" Max asked.
After a brief hesitation, Grace said, "Let's begin!"
The crowd cheered, and all eyes shifted to the chessboard.
Everyone's hearts were on edge as they eagerly watched the chess match.
