Chapter 2176
Romeo discovered the secret hidden within the chessboard. With a few strategic moves, he managed to turn the tide, snatching
victory from the jaws of defeat.
The bridesmaids nced at their smartphones where Mr. Eugene had sent the answer of the test. Then they looked at outside to
the chess game Romeo was ying, and it was an exact match!
How on earth did he do it?!
The main door swung open for him, and the bridesmaids ran upstairs again, lining up in front of Arabe’s room, determined not
to let the groomsmen through easily.
“Come on,dies, please be merciful and let us in.” the groomsmen pleaded, waving their treats.
“Don''t be stingy, give us a few more!” Cathy chided, prompting the groomsmen to reluctantly fish out all the small gifts they were
carrying.
Each bridesmaid ended up with several gifts, each worth about a thousand dors.
Their faces beamed with joy, yet they still didn’t open the door, instead signaling to the servants.
Nine servants came forward, each holding a painting, forming a straight line before the groom.
“One of these masterpieces was painted by Be. If Mr. McMillian can guess which the right one is, I’ll let you in!” Cathy stood
behind the line of servants, spoke with a bit of pride. The tables had turned; today it was her turn to “challenge” her cousin.
He had “punished” her plenty in the past!
Romeo and his groomsmen surveyed that each painting depicted different things.
“| must say, these are quite well done.” Timothymented with genuine admiration.
Although unsure which piece was Arabe’s, Timothy, having grown up around great artworks, could tell these were not the
creations of ordinary artists.
Derrick couldn’t figure it out; it would be easier topare if the nine pieces were simr, but as it was, it was hard to tell the
difference.
Jeffery, who had always admired Arabe’s art, felt that two of the paintings could very well be hers, yet he hesitated to guess
which.
The other groomsmen simply shook their heads in doubt.
“This one,” Romeo said, his voice clear and mellow, as pleasant as sound of a babbling brook.
The groomsmen thought he had a discerning eye for art, recognizing it so swiftly. But as they were about to rejoice, they saw
several servantsing out holding items like a keyboard, a washboard, and even a durian.
Had Romeo guessed wrong?!
Awave of anxiety swept through the groomsmen, but before they could intercede, Romeo’s voice, deep and sonorous like a
cello, interjected, “I wasn’t finished. The one | just pointed out was painted by Luna.”
All eyes turned to Luna, even Luna herself was surprised.
How had he spotted her work among so many, especially when she had tried to imitate Be’s style?
“Not bad. Your skills have improved,” Romeoplimented, and Luna’s lips curved into a smile, her eyes sparkling with pride.
“This one’s by Carol,” Romeo indicated another painting.
Finally, his gaze settled on a beautiful phoenix painting, “This is Be’s.”
The bridesmaids were astounded.
“Are you sure? If you''re wrong, there''s a penalty!” Joyce teased, trying to mislead him.
“If you guess your cousin''s but mess
up your wife''s, she’s gaing the!

But Romeo was confident, “It’s this one; I’m sure.”
“Why are you so sure?” Deborah asked, puzzled.N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.
“Have you seen her paint it before?” Freda was equally intrigued.
“It''s her style,” Romeo replied, having witnessed her previous works and familiar with her distinctive ir.
