Keira’s offhand remark made Lewis frown and blurt out involuntarily, “No way!”
Ellis hadn’t expected Keira to agree. All he wanted was to humiliate her with a few words and use her to mock Lewis, to thorouqhlv slap their faces in public.
So when Keira agreed, he was momentarily stunned.
Then, hearing Lewis’s words, he immediately laughed. “Why not, Lewis? Could it be that you don’t have confidence in your own wife? It’s just horse racing, isn’t it?”
Lewis’s sharp gaze instantly turned toward Ellis, and he said angrily, “Don’t you know the dangers for a novice in horse racing?”
Ellis pursed his lips. Although he had a nasty temperament, he hadn’t actually wanted to cause a fatal accident, so he quickly retorted, “Tsk, if you can’t handle it, then don’t participate! She wants to join in everything without the ability, but she should just stay home and be a trophy wife. Don’t come out and disgust us!”
The group of rich heirs behind him immediately echoed one after another:
“Exactly, Mr. Horton. You treat an illegitimate daughter like a treasure. If she’s so precious, she shouldn’t be brought out to embarrass herself!”
“Of all people, Lewis Horton is infatuated with a woman, to the point of being blinded, who would have thought…”
“Hey, illegitimate daughter, if I were you, I’d just be his canary and not leave home to embarrass him!”
Amidst the mockery of the crowd, Isla and Jake exchanged glances, excitement gleaming in their eyes.
This time, Keira had made a huge fool of herself!
Once back home, Nathan would certainly seize this point to push for their divorce again.
How could the Horton family have such a disgraceful hostess?!
Isla took the opportunity to speak. “Mr. Olsen, please be reasonable. My aunt has never seen such a scene…”
Ellis snickered. “It’s so disappointing to have something that can’t even make a public appearance!”
After saying that, his gaze turned back to the racetrack, and upon spotting Chasing Wind, his eyes immediately lit up. He then said to Lewis, “I’ve long heard there’s a horse in Oceanion named Chasing Wind, and seeing it today, it truly is outstanding. Lewis, a hero deserves a splendid horse. With you, the horse is just a tool to amuse a beauty. How about this, since your wife dares not race with me, why don’t you sell the horse to me? Name your price!”
Ellis had long been drooling over Chasing Wind.
Fine horses were hard to come by, especially one with a wild temper that only obeyed its master. It was a genuine treasure for any horse enthusiast.
Seeing Chasing Wind leisurely strolling in the racetrack with Lewis had nearly infuriated him.
In his view, a horse like Chasing Wind deserved respect!
Lewis replied coldly, “Not for sale.”
Ellis pressed on, “Yet you let this illegitimate daughter to spoil it? When we were in school, how did I not realize you had become so lovesick?”
He frowned. “Moreover, I heard that when Chasing Wind was sent to Oceanion, no one could tame it; it nearly starved to death alive! It was Oceanion’s most skilled horse trainer who subdued it in the end. Are you really honoring the trainer’s efforts by doing this?”
Someone behind him asked, “Which horse trainer?”
Ellis explained, “In recent years, a horse trainer appeared in Oceanion. Rumor has it she’s a woman who can tame any horse. Many untamable wild horses would rather die of starvation than submit, but this trainer really understands them. The horses she has tamed still retain their wild nature; she’s quite remarkable!”
“A woman? Taming horses? Is that true?”
Ellis snickered, “Of course, it’s true. Chasing Wind was tamed by that person. Just look at its condition now…”
Leaving behind those words, he was so transfixed that he entered the horse ring and walked to Chasing Wind.
His passion for horses had reached an obsessive level, and he exclaimed in astonishment, “Look at that shiny coat and all those muscles. It’s just standing there, yet I can imagine how the muscle lines would flow when it’s running at full speed… Do you know what the most incredible thing about that horse trainer is? The wild horses she tames hardly ever get hurt…”
Ellis said, “I really want to meet her!”
Jake said hastily, “Then, Mr. Olsen, stay a few more days. I’ll invite her over, so you two can meet.”
Ellis immediately scoffed. “Clance is so far from Oceanion; I’m staying a few days for sure. But you don’t need to call anyone. If I get any news of that horse trainer, I’ll personally pay her a visit…”
Someone beside them laughed. “Mr. Olsen, it’s just a horse trainer. Is it worth
Ellis lifted his chin right away. “How is it not worth it? So many strong men can’t tame that valuable horse, yet she can. She’s truly a heroine among women!”
After saying that, he deliberately looked toward Keira. “Unlike some people who have never ridden a horse. She still needs someone to hold the reins when riding a horse. How pretentious!”
Keira the horse trainer herself was just called pretentious…
She figured it out.
Ellis wasn’t displeased with her identity; he disliked her as a person.
Thinking about it carefully, she knew what was going on. It must be because of something Isla had said…
While she was pondering, Lewis had already stepped forward. “Ellis, if you have the guts, race me on horseback. What kind of man constantly targets women?!”
Ellis chuckled. “I wouldn’t compete with you. I couldn’t beat you abroad, so I’m not stupid enough to humiliate myself here.”
After saying that, he approached Chasing Wind, subconsciously wanting to pat its head.
But he didn’t expect that in the next moment, Chasing Wind suddenly lifted its front hoof, let out a neigh, and aimed a kick at Ellis’s groin!
Ellis was terrified and immediately took two steps back, stabilizing himself just in time.
The others didn’t believe this was happening, and one muscular man shouted, “Hey, is this horse that wild? I’ll give it a try!”
He grabbed the reins and mounted the horse.
He was Ellis’s exclusive riding coach, usually the best at taming horses, but Chasing Wind was different from ordinary wild horses. As soon as the man mounted, it immediately started bucking in place. Not even two minutes had passed before it threw him off!
“What a fiery horse,” praised the coach.
The people around them immediately gathered to watch the horse.
After throwing off the rider, Chasing Wind instantly raised its head and spun in place. It was an arrogant pose.
Others wanted to step forward and try, but the coach stopped them. “This horse isn’t to be trifled with. I just provoked it, and now it’s in a state of agitation. It could be dangerous to approach.”
Everyone immediately started to back away.
Keira was enjoying the commotion; just as she was about to take a step back, a sudden force from behind pushed her forward, sending her straight in front of
Chasing Wind!
