Chapter 360 Something’s Wrong With the Island 

The group greeted Grace loudly, startling her. Puzzled, she looked at them. “Max, what’s going on?” 

Max patted his stomach, comfortably sitting on the couch. “Ms. Lewis, we came over to see 

you.” 

Hearing his answer, Grace felt speechless. 

She spoke straightforwardly. “You won’t come without a reason. Spit it. What’s the matter?” 

Max quickly moved closer to Grace, looking very eager to please her. “You’re indeed smart, Ms. Lewis.” 

He continued, “Well, I’ve been studying chess recently and figured out-some new tricks. I just wanted to find an opportunity to play a round with you.” 

Grace raised an eyebrow and asked, “Youre here just for this?” 

Max nodded repeatedly. 

Since losing to Grace last time, he had accepted defeat, but his desire to win against her had intensified. 

So he had been practicing at home during this time, and now he had found a chance to come and go against Grace. 

“Ms. Lewis, can you give me a chance?” 

Max looked at her pleadingly, showing no signs of a gangster boss. His eyes were filled with an 

obsession for chess. 

However, Grace rejected him. “I can’t do that this time. I have a project to inspect on an island. After the inspection, I’ll play a game with you.” 

Max suddenly wilted, letting out a dispirited sigh.. 

Noticing his disappointment, Grace added, “The island is called Azure Bay. The whole trip will be over in two or three days. It’s not long. You can take this opportunity to hone your skills.” 

Max was out of breath with anger. “Ms. Lewis, I sense deep malice from you. 

Grace smiled, encouraging him. “I hope to see your improvement next time.” 

Max was at a loss for words. 

After that, Grace returned to her work. 

Seeing Grace so busy, Max didn’t want to disturb her further. After bidding her farewell, he

After they left, Max belatedly realized something “Walt, where did Ms. Lewis say she’s going? Azure Bay?” 

“Hey, Max. Isn’t that the island we sold to that foreigner a few days ago? Why is Ms. Lewis going there?” 

Max squinted suspiciously, his eyebrows furrowed. “She said she’s going to inspect a project, so she’s probably working with the foreigner.” 

They didn’t think too much about it. “That’s possible. After all, Ms. Lewis does business on such a large scale. She could be dealing with anyone.” 

Max quickly interrupted their conversation. “Alright, let’s not interfere with Ms. Lewis’ affairs. Let’s go back. I’ll practice a bit more, so that when she returns, we can have a good game of chess.” 

In the evening, Max sat around the chessboard, playing with his chess friends. 

The two sides were evenly matched, and the game was very intense. At this moment, a subordinate rushed in. “Max, there’s a situation.” 

Max looked displeased, waving his hand. “Get out. Talk after I finish the game.” 

“But-” 

The subordinate wanted to say more, but Max shot him a look. Startled, the subordinate quickly swallowed his words. 

Max finished the game an hour later. Since he had delivered a checkmate, he was in a good 

mood. 

“Bro, you’re good.” 

“Max, your chess skills have improved.” 

Max was very proud. “Thanks to the excellent teaching of my boss. I learned these moves from her.”
