Chapter 268

Have a Try

In the Barton family in Los Angeles.

After seeing off the distinguished guests, the small yard returned to its usual quietness.

What was even rarer was that William didn’t argue with his father, nor did he want to leave. He even
had a chess game with Charle.

William was originally playing chess with Harold, but unfortunately, he couldn’t think straight. After
losing several games in a row, he quit.

It just so happened that Jaquan’s game with his father was over because Jaquan hád something to do
in the company.

To everyone’s surprise, the usually cold-hearted Charle softened his tone and tentatively asked William
if he wanted to play a few rounds.

Not to mention William, even Sarah and the others who came over to have afternoon

tea and cake with them were shocked.

Charle, who had always been dignified, had never spoken to his son in such a tone.

They had always been strictly regulated. As a result, the usual casual chitchat became the standard for
lecturing. The family atmosphere became worse and worse because of the children’s growing up. They
could not even get together even if it was during the

Christmas.

Fortunately, Cierra was back now, which made the family look like a family.



“Since Dad wants to play two rounds, William, just give it a try. Since you can’t beat Harold, you will not
lose to an old man, will you?”

Cierra held onto Will’s hand and encouraged William. She even pulled out the chair to watch the battle.

William snorted. “I’ll give it a try. Why should I be afraid of him?”

William was a man who could be persuaded by reason but not be cowed by force. Since Charle asked
him in such a tone, he couldn’t put on a haughty attitude and naturally softened his attitude.

The chess pieces were ready quickly.

Chapter 268 Have a Try

Charle asked William to make the first move.

The latter was aggressive and did not play according to the conservative rules. He took offense as
defense.

The game of chess quickly entered the stage of fighting between the two sides.

Cierra didn’t know much about chess, but she was watching with great interest.

The scene also attracted the attention of the two old men next to them. They stopped the mess in their
hands, and they poked their heads out and pondered in their hearts.

The current situation was advantageous to Charle, and William was in a passive position.

However, even though Charle appeared to have the advantage, it could be broken by a single move.

Freddy, who was impatient, reminded William without thinking.



In an instant, the situation was reversed.

The outcome of this battle was already set in stone.

Charle shook his head with a smile and put down the chess pieces. He looked at the two elders with a
smile and said, “Sirs, you are partial.”

Freddy was thick-skinned and said calmly, “I didn’t say how to play. He is smart. Besides, wasn’t he the
one who did the first part? This is the foundation of the first part. Only then can the second part be won
easily.”

Charle laughed and said, “That’s right. He’s better than me. He’s quite capable!”

It was rare to hear such praise from Charle, and everyone could tell that it came from

the bottom of Charle’s heart.

Sitting opposite them, William raised his eyelids, and his casual expression was slightly

restrained, looking a little unnatural.

He thought. “What is this?

“A game of chess ended all previous grudges?”

William looked down at the mess with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

It wasn’t that William didn’t want to reconcile with his parents, but the estrangement in his heart wasn’t
so easily resolved.

William was ignored, suppressed, and denied in the past.



Whenever something happened, the first thing that came to Charle’s mind was that William was the
one who had done it. Even if Charle finally learned the truth and knew that he had wronged William, he
would not apologize.

Because William was a child at that time, and Charle was the most prestigious father in the family.

So even if Charle was wrong, he could pretend that nothing had happened.

Why should he pretend that nothing had happened and ask for reconciliation after so many years?

William couldn’t or weren’t willing to do it.

It wasn’t that William hadn’t tried it before. However, whenever he recalled the past, all he wanted to do
was to flee.

He wanted to leave this family that could not be considered a home.

He wanted to leave his father.

Today, if it weren’t for Cierra, he would never have stayed in this so-called ‘home’ for

so long.

He was willing to compromise because of family affection, but he was not willing to

compromise step by step.

Therefore, he didn’t care much about Charle’s praise at this time.

Only children would be happy because of their parents’ approval. He didn’t need it

anymore.



According to Charle’s attitude, he didn’t want to play chess anymore. William silently

put away the chess pieces and listened to Charle and two old men bragging.

“It’s so boring,” William thought.

“William, come with me.”

As soon as William put away the chessboard, he heard Charle’s voice.

William paused as if he had not expected that his father would take the initiative to look

for him. William frowned in confusion.

At the side, Sarah reminded him gently, “William, since your father asked you, you should go with him.
If his words are unpleasant to the ear, you can scold him back like what you did to Belle at the dinner
table today. You don’t have to care if he’s an elder or

not. Do you understand?”

Sarah had fallen out with Belle a long time ago, so she didn’t address Belle respectfully in front of the
children. Instead, Sarah called Belle by her name.

Hearing Sarah’s words, Charle was unhappy.

How could Sarah compare him with Belle?

Charle retorted, “I have something serious to talk to William. You can’t wrong me, Sarah.”

Although Sarah was weak, she had always been doted on by Charle over the years. It would not be an
exaggeration to say that Charle had raised Sarah as his daughter.



Sarah glared at Charle and said, “How can you say that? You were the one who provoked

William every time he came back. You could have explained it clearly, but you insisted on shouting.”

Charle didn’t say anything and he hoped Sarah could scold him more.

After all, every frown and smile was full of charm.

But Charle was worried about Sarah’s health, so Charle could only coax her patiently.

“I know I was wrong. I promise I won’t make the same mistake again this time. I’ll have a good talk with
William, okay?”

Hearing Charle’s patient tone, Sarah felt a little embarrassed.

Sarah pushed Charle away and said, “Didn’t you say that you have something to say to William? Why
are you talking about me? If you have something important to say, hurry

up and talk to William. Don’t waste time!”

Sarah thought. “Everyone is watching from the side, yet Charle has the nerve to come

over.”

Especially when Sarah saw Cierra looking at them, she felt even more embarrassed.

She was even clingier than the children at her age. How shameless!

“Okay. I’ll take William to the study right now.”

Hearing his wife’s words, Charle naturally didn’t dare to continue chatting with her. He looked at William
who was sitting there.



The father and son were still in a deadlock.

Cierra could tell that William was throwing a tantrum.

Cierra didn’t make any comments on William’s matter.

As a member of the family, she naturally hoped they could get along with each other

well.

So Cierra hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, “William, why don’t you go and have a look?
Mom also said that if Dad say something you don’t like, you can scold him back. Why are you afraid of
him?”
