'Dude, you'll definitely thankafter tonight,' he thought.
One of the women asked, "Mr. Denzel, is your friend here today too? We're just worried that if someone does manage to solve the puzzle, and the person who set it isn't around, things might get tricky." "Don't worry, he's here," Jason replied with a smirk.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe gwent on for about half an hour. Everyone who knew how to play, and even those who didn't but thought they might have a chance, had already taken a turn.
No one else stepped forward.
Jason started to feel a little puzzled. Rachel had looked so serious while studying the board earlier. But now, she hadn't moved at all. There wasn't even a single reaction.
Did I just overestimate her?' Then again, it made sense. Even top players online hadn't been able to solve this. How could she when she wasn't even a shatranj expert? He should've known better than to bring out such a difficult puzzle.

Jason gave a helpless shrug.
'Sorry, dude. I tried.' He was about to signal the nearby waiter to pack up the board when a clear female voice suddenly rang out. "I'll give it a try." The moment Jason heard that voice, a flicker of light returned to his eyes. He couldn't help but sigh in relief. He had been waiting for this.
In the crowd, Tyler's expression remained unreadable. His gaze was fixed on Rachel the entire time.
The second she spoke up and said she would try, the trace of weariness in his eyes vanished entirely.
He had set this shatranj puzzle, and so far, not one person had cclose to solving it.
Now, even he was curious. What method would Rachel use to crack it? Rachel stepped up to the board, essentially making her the evening's grand finale. Given who she was, it was no surprise that all eyes instantly turned toward her.

An illegitimate daughter?" "Who'd have guessed Mr. Lloyd was such a player in his youth." "What's so surprising? In our circle, wealthy men having affairs and kids outside of wedlock is practically normal."
"True. Still, I think she has way more class than that Yvette girl they m brought backVater. She looks so much more like a true Lloyd."
"Shows how little you know. Yvette was brought in from the countryside. Of course she doesn't have any poise! The Lloyd family practically built her image from scratch with money."
Yvette overheard this and clenched her jaws in anger. She grabbed her skirt so tightly that her fingers turned e red and the veins bulged on the back of her hand. Her eyes burned with fury, as if she could scorch Rachel just by glaring. She was furious that the man she had sent all those years ago hadn't managed to get rid of Rachel.
She was rightfully part of the family by blood. So what if Rachel was the same? She was just an illegitimate child! How could Rachel compare to her? What was wrong with all these people?
