NovelEnglishChapter 556
Stella thanked him while taking the bottle over. Then, she twisted it open and drank almost half the
water bottle.
’Your riding skills are quite good," Marshall complimented her.
"It's just average," Stella was very humble. Her skills, in the eyes of others, might have been
presentable. However, in the eyes of professionals, it would be inadequate.
Keegan glanced at her, "Marshall had learned horsemanship systematically. If he says you're good,
then you are good."
Stella was a little surprised. The last time Trevor came to challenge Keegan, Marshall did not join.
Hence, Stella assumed that Marshall did not know how to ride horses.
"You even learned horse riding professionally on purpose?" Stella asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMarshall chuckled, "I learned it together with Keegan. I wouldn't consider it especially professional. It's
just that I know a little bit about riding horses."
All locals speak very humbly of themselves. When Marshall said he knew a little bit, he definitely did
not just know a little about it. Remembering Marshall's resume on the law firm's website, she could not
help but be in awe that someone could be so versatile. Keegan saw with his own eyes how Stella's
expression had turned from astonishment to amazement, then to admiration. The jealousy in his heart
started to churn.
He said to Marshall, "Why not we have a duel by running two rounds together?"
Marshall smiled and said, "Better not. I haven't ridden horses for so long. I most probably am rusty."
Keegan's lips twitched into a smile, "If you're rusty, I'll let you start early by half a round."
Marshall's body froze. If he was letting him start early by half a round, then the intention for provocation
was too obvious. Naturally, Stella also heard it. She said with furrowed brows, Mr. Moore, if you don't
want to ride, then don't ride the horses. There is no need to acknowledge him."
Keegan stared at Stella while his expression fell slightly. Marshall suddenly gave a single chuckle, No
matter." When he said this, he looked at Keegan, "We can have a duel, but there is no need to let me
start early by half a round. I can win gracefully and also lose graciously."
Keegan tightened his lips and threw the keys to the room for harnesses to Marshall, "Prepare yourself
and choose a horse."
After ten minutes, Marshall walked out wearing protective gear and had chosen a brown horse from the
stables. This horse seemed to have been bought by Cordelia recently since Stella had never seen it
before. However, the horse's physique was on par with Juno's. The muscle definition on its body was
smooth, and its height was even taller than Juno's. However, it lacked steadiness compared to Juno,
as if it had not been wholly tamed and still had hints of its wildness.
Stella said in a low voice, "Mr. Moore, you should change to another horse. This horse doesn't look
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmvery docile."
Marshall pulled his lips into a smile while saying, "If it's too docile, it won't outrun Juno."
Stella heard this and could not bring herself to say anything more. The competitiveness in a man
cannot be revoked with just a few words of advice. Keegan had made such a blatant provocation, and
Marshall was hot-blooded. Despite how gentle he was, he could not swallow this disrespect.
Keegan looked at Stella's worried look, and his expression fell even more. By the time Marshall had got
on his horse, Keegan had swung his horsewhip and ran into the race track first. Marshall followed
closely behind.
On the horse trainer's count, the two stallions ran off together. However, unlike the last time when
Keegan competed with Trevor, he had purposedly slowed down to make the other person mistakenly
believe that he could catch up. This time, he had started to speed up from the beginning.
Juno was born as speed incarnate. Under Keegan's command, he ran forward with glee. However,
Marshall did not relent as well. The brown horse seemed to be feeling excited due to being able to
have a showdown with another horse on the race track. It followed Juno tightly with the speed of
lightning.
