Chapter 229: Willow Stone

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Right then, the boss of the internet cafe realized that he’d been tricked. However, he couldn’t afford to blame the person who had played him.

After all, Andre Cavill had already said that that man was his boss. He’d simply be seeking death if he were to put the blame on the other.

With the boss leading the way, Andre Cavill quickly arrived upstairs.

He spotted Finn Taylor at once. “Mr. Taylor, the 30,000 you wanted.”

“Give it to him.” Finn Taylor pointed at the boss, who dared not receive the money.

Earlier on, he’d been in the dark about Finn Taylor’s true identity. But now that he knew it, he was in a fluster. “Bro, I was wrong. Please forgive me for what I did!”

Finn Taylor smiled. It seemed like a gentle and welcoming smile, but it evoked true fear. “Take it.”

The boss dared not go against the other.

“I told you to take it, so you’d better take it.”

The boss wondered what Finn Taylor was up to, yet it seemed like he was asking for a beating if he didn’t take the money. As such, the boss eventually stepped forward to receive the stack of cash.

However, he made a mental note to return this sum of money to Andre Cavill. Otherwise, he’d definitely suffer for this!

“Since you’ve taken my money, do something for me.”

The boss was so frightened that he fell to the ground on his knees. He’d seen many bosses saying such words and what they wanted was for their men to kill themselves!

By now, the boss of the internet bar was frantic.

“Why are you so scared? All I want you to do is beat him up and teach him a lesson. Be as brutal as you can be as long as you spare his life.”

The boss of the internet cafe was dumbfounded.

Finn Taylor was pointing at Ginger, not him!

‘What’s going on? Isn’t he here to save Ginger? Why is he asking me to beat him up? Are all bosses this unpredictable?’?The internet cafe boss was utterly confused.

“Did you hear what Mr. Taylor said? Can you get that done?” Andre Cavill spoke up to confirm Finn Taylor’s intentions.

‘What? Even Andre Cavill is like that too! Don’t tell me that Mr. Taylor isn’t joking with me but being serious?’?

“No, Mr. Taylor. Are you not just joking with me?”

Finn Taylor didn’t reply to the boss and turned to Ginger instead. “I remember telling you not to touch my wife before coming back, but you refused to listen to me and even went to Number One Pacific Heights. On account that this is your first offense, I’m not going to kill you.”

The boss of the internet cafe could feel Finn Taylor exuding a murderous aura. He now understood that Mr. Taylor hadn’t been joking at all.

The moment Finn Taylor left, a blood-curdling scream could be heard from within the internet cafe.

If Finn Taylor had intended to kill Ginger—whose background was unknown—he would’ve done so a long time ago. However, he felt that he would be able to learn of the much more sinister secrets the other was hiding if he were to keep him alive.

Nonetheless, Finn Taylor wasn’t going to simply tolerate his nonsense.

…

On the way home, Finn Taylor made a stop at Hunter Sullivan’s house to get an update about what had happened in San Francisco while he had been away. Then, he assigned the other with a task—to head to San Diego and kill Jerry Wood.

In Chicago, Finn Taylor had already told Wendy Jensen that he would kill Jerry Wood. Since he had already said so, he’d keep to his words.

When Finn Taylor arrived home, he noticed that his wife had set up a chessboard. “Wow, have you gotten into chess too?”

“Not really, but I was the vice-chairman of the chess club in college.”

Finn Taylor knew that there was a reason why his wife had suddenly brought a chessboard out. “Go on. Why did you set this chessboard up?”

“It’s simple. Willow Stone is back.”

“Willow Stone?”

“That’s right. She was our classmate back in college and a close friend of mine back in the dormitory. She was also the president of the chess club.”

Finn Taylor waved her off, and he was confused.?‘What does Willow Stone coming back got to do with Yvette taking out the chessboard?’

“It’s because she likes playing chess. Since she’s back, I’ll invite her over. She’ll definitely give me an earful for not having a chessboard out at home. One of the most classic quotes from her is that chess is more important than food.”

After hearing Yvette Larson’s words, her husband’s curiosity toward Willow Stone was piqued.

“Oh right, didn’t you say that you attended a chess competition when you went to Chicago last time? I think she participated in that competition too.”

“The World Youth Chess Championship?” At that, Finn Taylor’s gaze revealed his surprise.?‘I thought that she was just fooling around. I didn’t think that she’d be such a serious player!’?

“Once she comes, I’ll get her to give you some advice. That way, you won’t lose too badly when you participate in that competition.”

‘Er…’?Finn Taylor didn’t know how to respond.?‘Is she looking down on me?’

“But I’m very good at chess. Do you still remember that young lady who visited us the last time?”

“Yes.” Yvette Larson naturally remembered that young lady. At that time, she had misunderstood her husband and had even thought that the young lady was Finn Taylor’s mistress!

“Her name is Megan Daimler—she’s Jessica Daimler’s disciple. I beat her.”

“You beat Jessica Daimler’s disciple?”

“Yes, I even beat Jessica Daimler!”

Yvette Larson sneered. “Don’t joke around. Why don’t we make a bet? I’ll kiss you if you can win a game against Willow Stone.”

Over the duration of four years, Willow Stone had made a deep impression on Yvette Larson that she was unbeatable in the chess world. In fact, the latter even thought that the only one who topped Willow Stone was Jessica Daimler.

“That’s a deal. Don’t go back on your word.” All of a sudden, Finn Taylor couldn’t help but look forward to his game against Willow Stone. “Oh right, when is your friend coming over?”

“Humph! Remember not to try to eavesdrop on our conversation! Otherwise, I’ll get jealous!” Yvette Larson warned her husband, who shrugged indifferently.

‘She was the one who had brought up her friend in the first place. I wouldn’t have known about her otherwise, yet it seems like I’m the one who invited her friend here!’?However, Finn Taylor would never refuse his wife’s requests. As such, he didn’t ask anymore.

Just then, Kimberly Gold made a call to Finn Taylor, saying that her grandpa—Third Master Gold—had something important to tell him.

Although Finn Taylor didn’t know if this was simply an excuse Kimberly Gold was using, he knew that it was time to make the latter understand that a relationship was simply impossible between the two of them.

Finn Taylor was no fool, and he had obviously felt Kimberly Gold’s attitude toward him. Since he had no interest in her, there was no point in leading her on any longer.

Very quickly, Finn Taylor arrived at the Gold family’s residence.

Upon pushing upon the gate, he spotted Kimberly Gold shaking her leg while sitting leisurely on a chaise.

“Where’s your grandpa?”

Kimberly Gold harrumphed. “Humph, you’re not even asking about me! The first person you asked for after arriving is Grandpa?!”
