The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 1103

Ronan rolled his eyes so hard it was a wonder they didn't stick that way. "Shut it. What's for breakfast tomorrow?"

"Eastside's crispy croissants!"

Ronan... just stared.

Those croissants were legendary, and the queue for them was a minimum two-hour wait. He was doing this on purpose!

Humming a tune, Grayson made his way back home, where he was greeted with an unexpected presence.

"Grayson."

Wallace stood up. "You're back."

Seeing Wallace, Grayson raised an eyebrow in surprise. "What brings you here? Weren't you in training?"

"The Welandia exchange delegation is arriving soon, and Piper wants to invite you to be the chess club's coach," Wallace explained, clearly sent by Piper for this mission.

"I'm not going."

Grayson shook his head so vigorously it was like he was trying to ward off a swarm of bees. "I'm too old for this crowd."

Wallace tried to argue.

"Ask your teacher. He might be interested." Grayson passed the buck. "It's late. I'm off to bed."

Wallace wanted to protest but Grayson brushed past him, leaving no room for further discussion.

After more than an hour, Keegan Wright returned home.

"Teacher."

After hearing the purpose of Wallace's visit, Keegan readily agreed. "Sure, I'll head to the chess club tomorrow morning."

"Great."

With the task completed, Wallace left, satisfied.

The Wright family, father and son, were renowned figures in Craneville. Grayson, in particular, was a celebrated chess master. Even though he had retired from the competitive scene years ago, legends of his prowess still circulated.

He was the first from Craneville to clinch the Global Chess Championship.

A master among masters in the chess world.

His retirement was due to a lack of worthy opponents.

Post-retirement, his son Keegan took up the mantle, sweeping through the chess world with his own prodigious talent, teaching students who even surpassed their master.
