"You sly devil, how can a newbie defend so well?" Nathalie couldn't help but chuckle. "Dad, Nathan's really smart," she reminded him.
Lincoln, even more puffed up, boasted, "Oh? Your dad's a math genius, a champion at the International Math Olympiad back in the day." Nathalie fell silent.

Lincoln furrowed his brows, "What do you mean? You think I'm a sofe m loser? Ha, you're quite the Cocky one. Lettell you, not only have I Let never lost at chess, but I've also never lost any competitive game." Nathalie tugged at Lincoln's sleeve, "Dad, let's be a bit humble."
