Carl Gillies was clearly targeting Jessica Daimler with his words.
As expected, the latter fumed as soon as she heard that. 'He expects me to go against his disciple? He's clearly looking down on me. Does he think that he's too good for me and that I'm only worthy of a match against his disciple?'
Yet, she never once stopped to think that she was the one who had made this proposition first. "Carl Gillies, are you saying that your disciple is worthy of playing against me?"
"What do you mean by that, Ms. Daimler? It's just guiding our juniors. Don't you think you're going too far with your words?"
Although all of San Francisco Chess Association's members respected Jessica Daimler, they had spent much more time with Carl Gillies. Naturally, they felt disgruntled that he was being bullied.
"Ms. Daimler, if you're unwilling to teach Mr. Gillies's disciple, why should he teach yours? Don't you think you're having double standards?"
