I Quit, Mr. Shaffer by Isabella Symons

Chapter 28

Isabella kept the fact that the Gates and Shaffer

families jointly developed the horse ranch in mind

because she was afraid to bump into Seth.

Fortunately, they didn’t encounter anyone they

knew before entering the pasture, let alone Seth.

Gordon took good care of her at first, but as Tyrone

and the others teased him, he ended up mingling

with the other men.

While Isabella knew how to ride a horse, she was

not that proficient in it. The last time she had any

substantial lessons was when Seth was in the

mood to teach her. Therefore, she felt uneasy while

holding the reins at this moment and didn’t dare to

squeeze the horse’s belly too hard, fearing it might

suddenly bolt.

Meanwhile, Lyra and Freya were chatting with each

other, and since Isabella wasn’t familiar with them,

she looked to be ousted. Unknowingly, the men’s

female companions had surrounded her.

“Isabella, where are you currently working?”

“You really are something. I haven’t seen Mr.

Dunkstein treat anyone as good as he treats you.”

“Why don’t you teach us a trick or two?”

Once those words were said, Isabella immediately

knew that these women were probably hostesses

from high–end clubs. Therefore, she held the reins

and clamped down slightly harder on the horse’s

belly, not bothering to engage with them.

“What’s with the act? You’re just the same as us. Do

you think you’ll earn more money just because you

have a cold face?” one of the young women.

muttered from behind.

Holding tightly onto the reins, Isabella turned

around and saw the one who spoke was the young

woman named Kiki.

“What are you glaring at us for? Do you think we’re

afraid of you?”

hushed tones. They wore smiles on their faces as if

they were getting along well with Isabella.

Isabella found it quite repulsive–a group of young

women, not even twenty years old, who acted that

way. Also, beneath those delicate faces harbored

countless sordid thoughts, and they were afraid

that someone might steal their business.

She wanted to ignore them, but the girls were

persistent and gradually approached her while

seemingly unintentionally surrounding her horse.

“You guys pushed me into this,” she whispered.

Kiki snorted, obviously not taking her words.

seriously.

Then, Isabella tightened the reins and suddenly

raised her leg to kick the horse on her left, followed

by kicking the one on the right. Both horses were

startled at the same time and neighed in unison

before frantically running away.

“Help!”

All four horses surrounding Isabella got startled,

and since all the young women didn’t know how to

ride them, they were all scared out of their wits.

Isabella had been holding tightly onto the reins in

advance, so her horse turned two circles and soon

calmed down.

The commotion drew everyone’s attention, and the

men quickly noticed them. They rushed to get the

ranch’s personnel to go after the startled horses.

Being the kind woman she was, Freya was worried

for the few hostesses and insisted that Gordon and

the others head over to check on them. Therefore,

the men threw away their reins and ran after the

horses, leaving Isabella and the other two women

alone.

As the surroundings quieted down, Freya and Lyra

approached Isabella.

“Would you like to ride a few rounds?” Freya came

over and patted Isabella’s horse.

Isabella shook her head. “I’m not that skilled in

riding horses, so I’m afraid I’ll fall.”

Chuckling, Lyra waved her hand and assured

Isabella, “It’s fine. This horse is very gentle. It won’t

run wild as long as you don’t do anything stupid like

those idiots.”

Her horse was privately kept, so there were quite a

few decorations on her saddle, which chimed

wherever her horse moved.

Upon hearing that, Isabella was intrigued and

thought perhaps she should take the horse for a

few laps. The horse was indeed very gentle.

“Oh, gosh!” Lyra’s sudden exclamation brought

Isabella back from her thoughts.

“Quick! Your horse’s mane is caught on my bell.”

Looking down, Isabella noticed that the two horses

were too close together, and her horse’s mane got

snagged at some point. She hurriedly bent over to

untangle the horse’s mane but discovered it was

snagged too tightly and couldn’t be untangled.

Moreover, her horse was clearly agitated from its

mane getting tugged on.

The originally gentle horse began to rear up. The

large movement was intended to throw Isabella off

its back, but it broke the strand of hair, causing the

horse so much pain that it went crazy on the spot.

“Quick! Get someone to help. I can’t control it.”

Isabella panicked and could only grip tightly on the

reins while screaming for Freya and the others to

get someone.

However, everyone around them had gone to

chase after those idiots, so the place was empty.

Not even a single rider could be seen.

The horse was in so much pain that it couldn’t be

calmed down. Then, it stubbornly reared up,

insisting on throwing Isabella off its back.

At first, Isabella could still grasp the reins, but she

couldn’t hold on after it attempted to shake her off

several times.

“Watch out!” Freya’s yell wasn’t put to much use

because when the horse kicked out its front hooves

once again, Isabella fell straight from its back. The

horse was tall, and falling from it rendered

Isabella’s back in excruciating pain.

Before she could yelp in pain, she felt a wave of

fear wash over her.

“Isabella, get out of the way!”

Get out of the way? How am I going to move?

Isabella’s eyes widened, and she had no time to

dodge. All she could do was watch as the horse’s

hooves came down on her. Instinctively, she moved

an inch to the side, but it was useless.

Bang! A gunshot sounded.
