“Really.”

Daphne felt her husband was being overly cunning. Just as she was thinking of another way to

interrogate him, Felix embraced her, his touch extremely gentle and tinged with an enticing aura.

Daphne could never resist him when he was like

this.

After comforting his wife, Felix sought out Joshua Having just returned and causing his wife to worry,

he ought to give Joshua a good talking–to

When he found Joshua, Joshua was on the phone with Cynthia, likely complaining about being

reprimanded upon his retum, expressing how upset he was

“Cynthia, can you come and pick me up earlier? I’m really not happy here.” Joshua’s attitude had done

a complete one–eighty. “Really now?” Felix stand outside the door, his voice casual.

Joshua furrowed his brows. His instincts were telling him this man was about to spoil his plan.

“Your grandfather and Cynthia are quite close. If I tell Cynthia about the attitude you just displayed

toward your grandfather, what do you think will happen?” Felix genuinely did not want Old Man Neal or

his wife to worry about this boy anymore.

“You wouldn’t dare.” Joshua mouthed the words without making a sound.

What wouldn’t I dare to do? Do you dare to hit me?” Felix was nonchalant, completely at ease.

Joshua really wanted to punch this man. What kind of father was this? He served no other purpose

besides making his life difficult and causing problems. Joshua truly did not understand how he had

managed to survive in this kind of family with such a calm character.

“Okay.” Joshua responded to Cynthia first and then lied, “Grandfather just asked someone to call me

over. I have to hang up

now.”

With that, he ended the call. His hands, which had been hanging at his sides, slowly clenched.

“What do you want,” Joshua felt that his father was seriously being a nuisance!

“Do as Cynthia instructed you. Your grandfather is old, he can’t take any surprises, and he can’t be

overly worried either.” This time Felix was not joking with him, his tone becoming more serious.

Joshua had already changed his attitude toward his grandfather. “I don’t need your reminder.”

“Go and play a few games of chess with your grandfather later. If you can’t play, just cheat using a bot,

but don’t let it show,” Felix did not forget to remind him.

Joshua did not like this suggestion at all. What was all this talk about cheating? It made it seem like he

was incompetent However, he did not have any memories now, and as far as a tactical game was

concerned, he could not learn it overnight.

After playing a game of chess with Old Man Neal based on his own ability and losing terribly, in the

end, he had to resort to cheating using bots.

Initially, Old Man Neal had been wondering why his technique had regressed so quickly. However, after

the start of the second game, he dismissed his doulets. The two were very focused on the game, one

seriously playing while the other was multitasking, simultaneously making his moves and checking his

phone hidden beneath the table.

In doing so, Joshua did not pay much attention to his surroundings. Moses came over with a freshly

brewed cup of tea. As he passed by his older brother to set down the tea, he saw the phone hidden

beneath the table. Naturally, he saw the chess game on the screen.

The positions of the pieces on the mobile screen mirrored those on the board before them.

What was going on?
