Chapter 133: I’ll Listen To You
Charles smiled and asked the workers to take them to the stable. Given that the yard with the horses
was a bit far away, they drove there using a golf card. From the golf card, they enjoyed the beautiful
scenery around them as the worker explained to them everything about the place, acting as a tourist
guide.
It took nearly half an hour to get to the horse track. As expected, the place was empty except for a few
workers. Since Charles had been here before, he had his own horse in the stable. Charles helped
Sarah to change into appropriate riding clothes, then took his horse out of the stable to the race track.
It was a big, beautiful brown horse. It was the first time for Sarah to come so close to such a big horse.
Surprised, she exclaimed. “A Ferghana horse!”
Charles laughed proudly. “If you praise it, Dragon will be happy! Isn’t it, Dragon!” He touched the
horse’s main. The horse neighed as if it understood Charles.
Sarah was surprised again and said, “His name is Dragon? Can it understand what you say?”
“You think?” Charles laughed as he guided the horse to the track, Sarah following him. She wanted to
ride the horse, but Charles was too worried about her safety and just rode the horse in front of her,
giving her a private show.
Sarah looked at him and shouted. “I usually only get to look at handsome cowboys in telenovelas, but
today I have a private show all for myself!”
Charles stopped beside her and asked, “And who do you think is more handsome?”
“Of course, you're more handsome… no one can compete with you !" she teased him.
Charles jumped off the horse and embraced her tightly, and they laughed and played with each other.
Once the workers noticed them happy and content, they left and went on with their work.
After a while, Sarah insisted on riding herself, but Charles was still worried about her and said, “Only if
I’m leading the horse for you, you can ride slowly. I will control the horse, understand? If you don’t
promise, I won’t let you ride!”
Sarah had no choice but to agree, and Charles helped her get on the horse, but was still very worried
about her safety and kept repeating. “Be careful, hold the reins tightly. Don’t kick its belly.”
Sarah felt him overprotective and said energetically, “I know, I know, I am not a three-year-old child
anymore, I’ll listen to you!”
After a while, when Charles saw that Sarah was following his instructions, he finally felt a little
reassured. Charles led the horse strolling around the track, so slowly that Sarah started to feel bored.
She wanted to ride by herself, but Charles kept refusing.
Suddenly Charles’s phone rang. Given that he had left his phone in his suit pocket on the foyer,
Charles asked Sarah to get down from the horse, but she wasn't done riding yet and urged Charles to
answer the phone. In this way, she would be able to ride alone for a little bit.
Charles was still hesitating to leave, but Sarah insisted. “I'll stay here and let the horse walk slowly
around the yard. You hurry to answer the phone. I’m Okay!”
Charles saw that she was enjoying herself and looked really happy, so he finally agreed but still kept
repeating to stay safe. Finally, he left to answer the phone.
Sarah didn’t move, just sat there and allowed the horse to graze on the grass. Although she wasn't
riding, she felt happy to have escaped Charles's overprotectiveness for a moment.
The horse walked peacefully for a while, then suddenly noticed a piece of red cloth in front of him. The
horse stared at the red material for a while without moving.
Sarah felt that the horse had stopped walking and looked up in the same direction, where she saw a
man waving a red flag. Before she could recognize who it was, the horse suddenly started to run away.
Sarah almost fell and tried to sit firmly, but the horse ran even faster. At a loss of what to do, she
started shouting out, “Charles, Charles!”
Charles was on the phone, occasionally looking toward Sarah to make sure that she was okay.
Suddenly, he saw the horse running, and he quickly ran after them, also shouting, “Sarah!”
The horse ran faster and faster until suddenly a string of firecrackers was thrown on its path from
behind a bush. Once the horse stepped on it, the firecrackers exploded. The loud sound frightened the
horse, which neighed loudly as it jumped out of the fixed training ground and ran towards the broad
racetrack.
Sarah was almost frightened to death and started to cry, holding tightly onto the horse, but since the
horse was galloping full speed, it was still very bumpy. She felt that she was going to fall and kept
calling out to Charles. “Help. Help!”
Charles was so frightened and kept shouting her name, “Sarah!” and quickly jumped onto another
horse and chased them as fast as he could.
Galloping after Sarah, Charles kept shouting her name repeatedly. “Sarah, Sarah!”
Sarah was in a state of shock, the wind whirling around her ears. She couldn't hear Charles’s voice at
all. The only thing she heard was her own heart, which was beating so violently in her chest as if it was
going to explode. She grabbed tightly around the horse's neck but still felt that she was going to fall.
She was terrified.
Charles also was afraid of her falling down and was worried about her pregnancy. If she fell, there was
a high chance that she would lose the baby. Hearing her scream, his heart nearly jumped out of his
chest. He whipped the horse to run faster and catch up with Dragon. Once he came closer, he started
throwing a rope over to Dragon's neck, trying to reel him in.
After several attempts, he finally succeeded in throwing the rope over the Dragon's head, pulling it in Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
an effort to make him stop running. He wanted to come close enough to grab the reins himself to
control the horse and called out. “Sarah, don’t worry, I’ll help you.”
