Envy can be a bitter pill to swallow!
Rosemary had been blessed with the good fortune of studying chess under the guidance of Mr. Albright for over a decade, starting when she was just a little girl. Was she seven or eight years old? Or could
she has been even younger, around five or six?
Having someone to mentor her from such a tender age, no wonder she had surpassed them all in talent.
It was only now that they realized why, despite their overt and covert attempts to persuade Mr. Albright to take on protege, he had always refused. He had his eye on someone all along, and what an exceptional choice Rosemary was.
With her by his side, why would Mr. Albright ever consider anyone else?
They would have chosen Rosemary as their protege too.
They had made fools of themselves, thinking too highly of their own children's abilities.
"Does Rosemary have any plans to take on any protege?"
