Bethany snickered and teased, “Oh, your mouth is jinxed.” “Hmph! There's no point in stopping her since she wants to play the hero. | hope she falls.” Zoe gritted her teeth and narrowed her eyes dangerously at Bella's confident face.

Wyatt, Celeste, and Asher exchanged looks.

“Ms. Thompson, horse racing isn’t child's play. The race concerns a commercial deal and the honor between our four families.
Logan sized the insolent girl up. “It’s fine to back down from the competition. Chairman Thompson will be heartbroken if you fall or if anything happens to you.” In other words, Bella would be making a fool out of herself.
They all believed Bella would embarrass herself.
“Yeah, Ms. Thompson. Do you see any women competing? | don’t think you should participate.” Since Logan had spoken, Zoe joined in the taunting. “We know that you are competitive, but know your limits.” “Ms. Hoffman, do you think horse riding isn’t a sport for women, or do you believe women are inferior to men?” Bella looked indifferently at Zoe and smirked. “As far as | know, your grandmother was a well-known equestrian in her time. Your grandmother represented our country in international competition and brought hthe trophy when equestrian wasn’t popular in our nation.

“No! N-Nothing!” Carrie shook her head violently.
As the nightmare of her past cback to haunt her, Carrie took a deep breath and closed her eyes, trying hard not to be pulled back into her trauma. She broke out in a cold sweat.
“Don’t bite off more than you can chew.” Bella smiled at Logan, her eyes sparkling. “Mr. Hoffman, thank you for your concern, but | don’t take risks unless I'm sure | can win.” Logan was taken aback. His opinion of the lady changed for the better.
Bella's fearlessness reminded him of his late wife.
