Chapter 1155
Both of them spurred their horses and the two animals charged out together.
A gasp went up from the crowd in the stands, and a few people from the nearby shooting range were looking at
them with hopeful eyes. When they saw Chloe riding out, they were all very surprised. Her horse–riding posture
definitely didn’t look like a beginner’s.
“Oh my God, she… she can actually ride a horse?”
Kane couldn’t help but exclaim, his gaze fixed on the situation on the training field.
Damon’s eyes darkened, but a smile couldn’t help but creep up on his lips. His wife had given him too many
surprises.
It seemed like all this time, he never really understood her. Because she had too many secrets.
Seeing Chloe charging out almost at the same time as her, Wendy was very surprised. Just now at the shooting
range, she, as a beginner who had never even touched a gun, was able to achieve such results. Although she was
unwilling to admit it, it was truly impressive. Because those were real bullets. Most women would be afraid to even
touch them, let alone hit the target on their first try.
Now, her horse–riding skills were actually on par with Wendy’s.
The horses‘ hooves kicked up dust, and the two of them seemed to be getting faster and faster.
A beginner riding a horse that had never been on a racecourse before was now keeping pace with her, which made
Wendy feel greatly humiliated. She whipped her horse, and with a crisp sound, the horse neighed in pain and sped
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtup even more.
She quickly pulled away from Chloe and ran to the front. A triumphant smile finally appeared on Wendy’s face. She
looked back at Chloe, controlling her horse to block Chloe’s path.
Chloe shot her a cold glance, then saw the first bend not far away. She sneered, letting Wendy run ahead of her,
even pulling away from her.
Listening to the diminishing sound of hooves behind her, Wendy relaxed her guard, full of contempt. She wanted to
see how Chloe would face the humiliation when she caught up in the second round.
Her horse galloped at lightning speed, as fast as an arrow.
She would never lose to Chloe! Want her to embarrass Damon? No way!
Her relationship with Damon was unparalleled by any woman in the world!
Today was all trouble Chloe brought upon herself. With such a great opportunity, how could she not take advantage
of it to teach her a lesson?
Ahead was the first turn of the course. Wendy had to adjust her horse’s direction. But in the split second she was
preparing to turn, Chloe suddenly sped up, closing the distance between them as Wendy successfully turned.
The sound of hooves behind her had Wendy’s heart tightened. Seeing Chloe close behind her, she gritted her teeth,
her heart starting to panic.
The audience began to cheer. Many people felt that it was unlikely for Chloe to win the race, but most people
sympathized with the underdog, so they hoped for a comeback. Therefore, Chloe catching up to Wendy caused
quite a stir.
Nathan’s eyes widened in surprise at the situation after the first bend.
“Damn! Bro, is this a coincidence? Your wife’s cornering technique is really awesome!”
Wendy couldn’t see Chloe ahead of her, but when Chloe turned on the inside curve behind her, she bent her body
low, and the horse bent into a difficult angle towards the inside. She didn’t waste any time, and from the distance
between them, it was clear that her skills were slightly better than Wendy’s. Damon squinted his eyes at the
galloping horses on the field, his expression calm.
He looked very relaxed. But his gaze suddenly turned to Stanley standing next to him. Even though he was facing
the racecourse, Stanley looked very relaxed, his facial expression didn’t change much. He even seemed to be
enjoying the show.
Enjoying the show… This meant that he had never doubted the outcome of this race, as if Chloe winning was the
most normal thing.
His behavior at the shooting range, asking Chloe to show off her skills, his disdain for Wendy, and now, his confident
demeanor…
Damon’s hands clenched, and his face gradually turned cold. Stanley had confidence in Chloe. He might understand
Chloe even more than Damon did. This realization made Damon extremely annoyed.
On the racecourse, Chloe’s pressure completely disrupted Wendy’s rhythm. In any type of competition, mentality
was very important. Once it was shaken, it would directly affect the final result.
Wendy kept whipping the horse, even though it was running fast, but at the final turn, Chloe who was closely
following her still managed to overtake Wendy using the bend. She slowly saw Chloe and her horse’s head on the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmside, then the horse’s neck, the saddle…
Seeing these meant Chloe had surpassed her.
Wendy, who kept whipping the horse, looked panicked, lost her cool, and became irritable; while Chloe sat on the
horse, easily controlling the steed, her legs comfortably placed on the saddle, her posture cool and steady, looking
too at ease.
Elizabeth excitedly grabbed Royce’s arm, her face flushed with excitement. “Chloe has overtaken her! She is
amazing!”
Royce looked at the situation on the field from a distance. He usually only showed expressions when facing
Elizabeth, but now, a faint smile appeared on his face. Before, when he found out that his son, who was usually
indifferent to women, was suddenly getting married, he was very surprised. Regardless of whether he had met
Chloe or not, he never interfered too much in his son’s choices.
But when he saw Chloe in person, he knew Damon’s choice wouldn’t be wrong. Her appearance, temperament,
and even her intellect, were all admirable.
The only pity was her family background. Royce didn’t mind these, and he never cared too much about her family’s
status. Although he trusted every decision his son made, he still had some doubts about Chloe.
The Harper family’s background was not simple. Even if Chloe didn’t have the support of her own family, it was fine.
But if a woman didn’t know how to protect herself, she would eventually become a burden to Damon.
Now it seemed, his previous worries were unnecessary. Even if she only had a few self–defense skills, she was way
better than a woman who couldn’t stand on her own two feet and needed a man to babysit her all the damn time.
But his daughter–in–law, she was a curveball he didn’t see coming.
