Study Balcony.
Nathan and Nathalie were engrossed in a gof chess when Dominick led the butler into the room. Nathan,
without even looking up, said in a serious tone, "Whatever it is, it can wait until we're done with this game."
"Understood," the butler replied, standing quietly to the side, watching the gunfold. Nathan played chess
with a laid-back attitude, making moves on a whim.
Nathalie, on the other hand, was still learning. She was trying hard, sticking to the basics she had memorized,
but hadn't quite figured out how to adapt. No sneaky moves, no defense, just straightforward play. Her skill level
was about on par with a kindergartener's.
The butler couldn't help but feel a bit awkward watching them. With such basic skills, how could they be enjoying
the gso much? Especially when Nathan had plenty of chances to capture Nathalie's pieces but seemed to
intentionally overlook them, keeping the ggoing indefinitely. The butler sighed quietly.
He found it a bit painful to watch. Eventually, he couldn't resist and gently reminded Nathan, "Sir, you can put
her in checkmate now."
Nathan shot him a fierce look, making the butler quickly cover his mouth in fear.
Nathalie, thanks to the butler's hint, realized Nathan could checkmate her. She looked at him, surprised, "You

Nathalie chuckled and ruffled his hair, "Nathan, after all these years, how cyour chess skills haven't
improved at all?"
Nathan replied humbly, "Yes, yes, | should practice more with you."
Nathalie, with playful pride, said, "You still haven't improved. Maybe chess just isn't your thing. We should find
something else to do for fun." Nathan's lips curled into a knowing smile. "Honey, playing chess with you makes
Such a straightforward guy.
As simple and honest as can be.
But it was still quite the challenge not to take her pieces.
Nathalie glanced at the butler, "Alright, back to business."
Nathan tossed the chess pieces back onto the board with a hint of impatience, "What's going on?"
The butler reported, "Sir, the Rowland family patriarch, along with your father, stepmother, and brother, are here
to visit."
Nathan waved dismissively, "I don't want to see them. I'd like to live a bit longer, thank you."
The butler added, "If you don't want to see them, they've specifically asked to see madam."
Nathan's face turned stormy with anger, "They dare..."
Seeing him so worked up, Nathalie gently patted his shoulder to calm
him down, "Nathan,

hoping you'll go easy on them..."
Nathan grimly replied, "They can dream on. Everything he has now cfrom my mother's dowry. It's bad
enough he never treated her well, but he's been heartless to both of us. He doesn't deserve any of it. I'm taking
it back."
Nathalie had never seen Nathan so upset, and it tugged at her heart.
