Chapter 288: I’ll Support You

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Finn Taylor ignored his mother’s questions.?‘Let’s see what you can gather. I’m not going to tell you anything.’

Just a week earlier, Wendy Jensen had thought that she’d definitely have the advantage over her son. She had full confidence in making the latter her puppet, yet she now realized that his abilities extended far beyond her imagination.

Finn Taylor got into the car with his mother, and they drove away.

In the car, Wendy Jensen couldn’t help but ask, “Where are we going?”

Silence!

There was pin-drop silence in the car, and nobody bothered to respond to her. This frustrated her, yet there was nothing she could do.

Compared to the rest, she was nothing. However, she wasn’t going to give up just like that.

Very quickly, the group arrived at the American Chess Association.

Upon seeing this, Wendy Jensen’s heart gradually started to calm down. Although she’d never been here, she’d heard Maximus Brugel mention Jessica Daimler in the past.

Since they shared a good relationship, the latter probably wouldn’t put her on the spot.

Megan Daimler was already waiting there for them, and she smiled at Finn Taylor. “You brought quite a few people with you. I was thinking of having dinner with you alone.”

“If you think they’re bothersome, we can ask them to have a meal somewhere else.” Finn Taylor paid no heed to his mother and Felicity’s feelings when saying so.

“Forget it. My master will chide me for having no manners.”

While Jessica Daimler was protective of her disciple, she was a very understanding person and was strict to the latter too. If Megan Daimler were to make a mistake, she would lecture her all the same.

“Please follow me.” Megan Daimler gestured for the group to follow her.

With her leading the way, they quickly arrived at a room.

After giving some instructions to the people in the room, dishes were served one after another.

“Have a seat. We might not have ordered enough, so let me know if you’re still hungry. I’ll get them to make more.” Everyone could tell that Megan Daimler was simply being polite. If she really thought that she hadn’t ordered enough, she would’ve ordered even more earlier on.

Anyone who took her word for it was truly a fool.

The group sat down, enjoying the delicacies.

In the whole room, only Finn Taylor and Megan Daimler spoke.

“Where’s your master?”

“With them.”

“Why are they here?”

“To invite my master for the World Chess Championship.”

“They already lost to me, yet they still dare to come?”

“They probably heard that you aren’t from the association. Their rule this time is that only members of the chess association will be able to participate in the competition and that the participants needed to be members before yesterday.”

“That’s a good strategy, but it’s a pity they didn’t realize the trouble they’d be bringing upon themselves.”

Suddenly, Megan Daimler went silent.

There was a long pause before she finally spoke up again. “My master told you to do whatever you want without any fear. She’ll support you all the way.”

Finn Taylor was stunned—he’d never expected Jessica Daimler to be so supportive of him.?‘No wonder my master is friends with her.’?

“Oh, right. My master has a message for you, but she wants it to be kept a secret.”

Finn Taylor glanced at the other two women present and replied, “That’s fine. You can just say it here.”

“To be honest, she’s on Mr. Brugel’s side. They want you to reclaim what’s yours. Do what you have to and come to the chess association if you run into any trouble. Nobody will dare to make trouble for you here.”

Finn Taylor hadn’t paid much attention to her previous words, but these words touched him.

Everyone knew that Finn Taylor was going against the entire Taylor family. It was no different from seeking death by doing so, yet Jessica Daimler had chosen to stand on his side.

He was indebted to her. No matter what kind of grudge he held against her in the past, he had to admit that he owed her a favor now.

Now, he was suddenly curious about the relationship between their masters.

Finn Taylor looked at the young girl, not saying a word. However, the expression on his face gave his thoughts away.

“Don’t look at me; I don’t know anything. You can ask them if you want to know.”

The man chuckled and waved her off. “Forget it. It must’ve happened in the past.”

The meal continued in silence.

After everyone had their fill, Megan Daimler sent each of them back to their rooms. Before leaving, she even eyed Finn Taylor and reminded him seriously, “Stay safe.”

The latter nodded seriously, telling Megan Daimler not to leave the room no matter what she heard that night.

The night darkened, and in the blink of an eye, it turned half-past two.

Most people would be in deep sleep at this time, but Finn Taylor had gone out. He was headed to the rooms that the chess association had assigned to Yoshie Masaki and Kuro Takeda.

Standing outside the door, he lit a cigarette.

They might all be chess players, yet they were nothing more than strangers now!

Finn Taylor walked into the room determinedly.

“Who’s that?” Both Yoshie Masaki and Kuro Takeda were acute and noticed someone opening the door straightaway.

Click!

As soon as they switched on the light, they spotted Finn Taylor.

The latter strolled in and glared at the pair as he shut the door.

“It’s you.” Kuro Takeda flared up as soon as his eyes landed on the other.

There weren’t many who were worthy of being called his opponents, much less match up to him. He’d always been the hope of Japan and was regarded as the next star of the chess world, yet he lost to Finn Taylor some time ago.

It had been an utter defeat.

“You won. Why are you here?”

“To settle the accounts.”

“Settle the accounts? We’ve never borrowed any money from you.”

“What, it hasn’t been long. Have you already forgotten about what you’ve done?”

“What did we do?” Kuro Takeda seemed to have remembered what they had done, and there was panic evident in his eyes.

“I guess you remember it now. Why don’t you end your own lives then?”

“End our lives? Do you really think you can kill me?”

“I’m leaving you some dignity by giving you the chance to take your own lives. If I take your lives, your bodies might not even be sent home.”

“Hehe. Do it then.” Kuro Takeda wasn’t just a master in chess; he was also a master in martial arts.

This was why he wasn’t the slightest bit terrified. He even thought that he would be able to kill Finn Taylor instead.

“Alright then. There goes my blade!” Finn Taylor struck.

With that, Kuro Takeda fell onto the ground, lifeless.
