Chapter 1986

When the TV showed the special highlight from the chess tournament, Jared scrolled through it with

curiosity. Suddenly, he seemed to have seen something. His eyes widened as he stared at a name.

Ellen? Why is her name on the list? Jared knew there was no mistake. It was Ellen’s name. At that

moment, he returned to his senses and quickly clicked on her name to rewatch her match.

When the screen switched scenes, Ellen’s beautiful face unfolded right before his eyes. Looking at her,

he stood up in bewilderment. He couldn’t believe he would find

Ellen, the woman who had disappeared for one and a half years, this way.

Ellen had changed a lot. Jared could tell that she was more mature. At the match, she wasn’t wearing

anything classy, sporting a plain turtleneck, looking sharp. When the camera zoomed in on her, she

didn’t cower away, looking like a porcelain doll.

Immediately, Jared grabbed his phone and dialed Stanley’s number. “Stanley.”

“Yes, Mr. Presgrave.” “How did you find her?” “It looks like you have watched it.

Except for work, I love to play chess. Hence, I knew a chess tournament would be right around the

corner. Since I have nothing much to do, I watched the video and saw Miss Reiss.”

“Is… Is she still in Averna? Which hotel is she at?” Jared suppressed the excitement in his voice.

“Are you going to see her tonight, Mr. Presgrave? It’s already 10.00PM, though. Why don’t we meet her

tomorrow morning?” Stanley suggested.

“Do you think I can wait until tomorrow? I want to know which hotel she stays in within ten minutes.”

Jared wouldn’t give him the time to slack off.

Hearing his words, Stanley shook his head and smiled. Fortunately, he had done some. research

beforehand and replied, “I have already checked that. I’ll send the address to you right away. I’m sure

you know Miss Reiss is the champion, right?”

“What?” ‘Don’t you know about it?” “Really?” “Yes. I just watched her last match. It was amazing. She is

truly gifted as a chess player.”

When Jared heard his words, he felt a pang in his chest. Does that mean more men will like her? Will

she be popular around people? A sudden rush of jealousy surged toward his heart as he thought about

the possibilities.

After a while, Stanley hung up the phone and sent him the address, including Ellen’s room number.

Immediately, Jared grabbed his coat and quickly rushed to the garage.

He didn’t want to wait any longer. At that moment, all he wanted to do now was to find her and ask

about her sudden departure. That was enough to make him look for her!
