Rescue!
The entire audience was stunned.
Zephyr leaped over the railing.
All four hooves were in the air.
His pale golden mane shimmered under the sunlight.
The astonishing height made everyone hold their breath.
An ordinary rider would have been thrown off instantly.
Even the professional coaches were sweating.
They could already picture Evelyn Ross being thrown to the ground.
Hooves trampling over her chest...
The image of blood splattering was terrifying.
Socialites screamed and covered their eyes.
The bolder ones stared intently at the arena.
The anticipated tragedy did not happen.
Evelyn was lying low on the horse's back.
She held the reins tightly.
She was as steady as a rock when Zephyr landed.
Their unity was like a war god descending.
"My God!"
The rich heirs couldn't help but exclaim.
"This love child is incredible!"
The coach relaxed for a moment before frowning again.
"This is just the beginning."
"The key is calming it down afterward."
Everyone's hearts were in their throats again.
A spooked horse is extremely difficult to tame.
It's impossible for anyone but a professional horse trainer.
...
Marcus Valentine felt despair.
He had tried every method but couldn't stop the horse.
The horse was becoming more frenzied.
Its speed kept increasing.
He was being jolted so hard his organs felt scrambled.
Falling at this speed would be fatal.
Marcus pressed his lips together.
He didn't regret provoking that love child.
Bullies deserved to be taught a lesson.
He only regretted that life was too short.
He hadn't found a wife for his third uncle.
He hadn't made his cousin marry Alexander Vance.
Most regrettably, he never met that legendary horse trainer.
This life was truly a loss.
The sound of hooves suddenly came from behind.
Marcus turned and saw Evelyn catching up.
Her expression was cold and stern, like a female knight.
Marcus immediately frowned.
"Why are you following me?"
Evelyn kept her eyes on the horse.
"Sit tight and hold on."
Marcus scoffed.
"Trying to save me? Don't overestimate yourself!"
Evelyn gave him a cold glance.
She continued observing the horse's condition.
Horses don't go wild without reason.
The Vance family's horses were all strictly trained.
Something must have spooked it.
Marcus grew impatient.
"Afraid my death will implicate you?"
"Stop bullying Mrs. Sophia Ashcroft and her daughter from now on!"
"I despise those who gloat when they gain power!"
Evelyn coldly snapped.
"Shut up!"
Marcus suddenly became serious.
"Can you do me a favor?"
Evelyn remained silent.
Marcus continued.
"My idol is a horse trainer."
"Tell her I admire her if you ever meet her."
Evelyn's eyes flickered.
This guy wasn't fundamentally bad.
He had protected her during the race.
Otherwise, she wouldn't risk saving him.
"Your horsemanship is quite good."
"Alexander Vance has decent taste."
"But stop chasing, you'll really die..."
Evelyn suddenly accelerated.
Zephyr caught up with the out-of-control horse.
Marcus was shocked.
"Are you trying to die together?"
"There's no need for a lovers' suicide..."
Before he finished.
Evelyn suddenly stood up.
She leaned sideways, hanging off Zephyr.
Using the momentum, she leaped into the air.
Marcus felt a weight behind him.
The girl had landed behind him.
Her arms reached around him to grab the reins.
Marcus was dumbfounded.
"Are you insane?"
"This won't work!"
"You'll be thrown off!"
He hurriedly turned his head.
He heard the woman's cool voice.
"Shut up!"
Marcus wanted to say more.
He heard another command.
"Sit tight and hold on!"
His waist was suddenly held.
Evelyn nimbly flipped over.
She instantly moved in front of him.
She took the reins and controlled the horse.
She leaned down to pat the horse's head.
She pulled hard on the reins.
She gently patted the horse's belly.
"It's useless, I tried!"
"Do you think you're my idol?"
Marcus gripped her shoulders.
He felt the horse's restlessness.
He had done the same thing.
It didn't work at all.
But a miracle happened.
The horse gradually calmed down.
