Chapter 188
The air was thick with anticipation, every eye in the room swiveling to the entrance. The buzz of curiosity was palpable as they all wondered just what Griffin looked like.
Could she possibly be the next Snow White?
But the backlighting obscured her features, presenting only a striking silhouette.
Rebecca watched as the figure drew closer, her mind racing.
Was this Griffin? Why did she feel as though she knew that silhouette?
Was she seeing things? It had to be.
How could she know a cheater, a jester in the court of life?
A smirk curled at the edges of Rebecca’s lips. Griffin certainly had nerve, showing up at the gala.
Was she unaware that she was nothing more than a joke, a blight upon decent society?
But, Rebecca mused, having a fool to contrast her own radiance might just be perfect.
Like a rose among thorns, her nobility would only shine brighter.
Her smile grew more pronounced.
The rhythmic sound of high heels on marble echoed closer.
With every step, the breathtaking features of the girl came into clear view. She was dressed in a scarlet off–the–shoulder gown, her sexy shoulders and delicate collarbones exposed.

She was the winter bloom amid the snow, stunning and splendid.
The live camera feed captured her in all her glory, projecting her image onto the giant screen.
Even magnified, her beauty was flawless, she seemed perfect.

It was really her.
Fiddling with his cufflinks, his deep eyes betrayed nothing of his thoughts.

What other secrets did she hold?
Doniel swallowed hard, emotions tangled within him.
Rebecca’s pupils dilated as she processed the revelation.
Anthea? Anthea was Griffin? Griffin was Antheat
But when had Anthea learned to play chess? Why had she changed so much recently? Had Anthea been rebom as well?
A chilling thought crossed Rebecca’s mind.
But Anthea had been nothing in her past life, even a rebirth wouldn’t suffice…Unless Anthea had a system too?
What should she do now? How could she win against Anthea?
How could she capture Mr. Christensen’s heart?
Bitch! Anthea was nothing but a bitch!
She was here to steal Mr. Christensen from her. Shameless!
Rebecca’s hands clenched into fists at her side, a sheen of sweat on her forehead.
Then, the voice of the system rang in her ears: [Host, don’t worry. I have equipped you with top–level chess skills. Even against a grandmaster, you have nothing to fear. Moreover, my scans have confirmed that Anthea carries no system. So, rest assured, Anthea is not your rival.]
Upon hearing this, Rebecca breathed a sigh of relief, regaining her composure.
No system, no problem.
What did it matter if Anthea was beautiful? Beauty couldn’t cleanse her of her cheater status!
When the time came, Rebecca would crush her with sheer skill.
Meanwhile, the chat exploded into chaos.
