The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 1093

Piper's eyes sparkled with amusement, "Rest assured, Your Majesty, I'll make sure to shine."

"For the upcoming delegation from Welandia, we're planning to scout the city for the most skilled chess players to form a team. We'll host a friendly match to showcase Craneville's dedication to chess, and to foster cultural exchange and elevate the game's prominence."

The Queen was very pleased with the plan, "Excellent, I'm entrusting this to you."

Piper grinned triumphantly. She had been looking forward to making a splash during the Welandia Chess Federation's visit to Craneville.

Brittany, on the other hand, seemed indifferent.

But Piper couldn't let it go, "Ms. Lynette, I've heard you grew up in Imperial City, you must have some knowledge about chess, right?"

Suddenly, all eyes were on Brittany.

Eltham looked at Brittany with eager anticipation.

Brittany smiled gently, "I've never formally studied chess. I only played a few games with my elders. I'm no match for Ms. Walker, who has won championships."

That was exactly what Piper had been waiting to hear, "Ms. Lynette, if you're interested in chess, you're welcome to observe our chess club anytime."

"Thank you," Brittany responded, brushing off Piper's challenge.

Piper felt like she had punched a pillow - utterly unsatisfying.

As the dinner party progressed, Brittany excused herself early due to fatigue.

Eltham offered to escort her, but the Queen had other plans for him.

Upon leaving the estate, Brittany leaned against the wall, gasping for breath, her stomach in turmoil.

She discreetly took a sour candy from her bag, the intense flavor helping her suppress the urge to vomit.
