Upon hearing Kenneth’s words, a flash of anger crossed Upton’s eyes, but he quickly masked in
“Now is not the time to be stubborn, Kenneth. If Angela really gets hurt, it’ll be too late for regrets! Upton warned.
Kenneth looked coldly at Upton. “If you’re so worried, why don’t you go and persuade her yourself?”
After hesitating for a few seconds. Upton quickly walked toward Angela.
By the time he reached Angela, the instructor had already brought the horse to her side and was explaining safety precautions.

“Ms. L
Lewis, this horse isn’t suitable for you. You should choose another one, or you might lose control and get injured,” he advised.
Seeing the genuine concern in Upton’s eyes, Angela smiled, “Thank you for your concern, Mr. Cooper, but I’ve already made my decision,”
He couldn’t help but frown and said in a hushed tone. “Even if you’re trying to make a point to Kenneth, risking your own life isn’t the way.”
At this, Angela chuckled. “Mr. Cooper, you’re overthinking it. He’s not that important to me for me to do that.”
She then effortlessly mounted the horse. Angela’s smooth and graceful movements showed no signs of being a first–time rider.
Upton was momentarily stunned, his gaze involuntarily fixed on Angela
Dressed in a maroon riding outfit, Angela’s perfect curves were accentuated. Her slender waist seemed as though it could be wrapped around with just one hand. With her long hair pulled back into a ponytail, Angela radiated a refreshing and spirited vibe. Her beauty was so captivating that it
was almost hard for Upton to look away.
Realizing he was getting lost in her look, Upton quickly lowered his gaze to hide the emotions in his eyes. But, as he was about to speak, Angela had already ridden off into the field.
Kenneth watched intently at the figure on the horse dressed in a maroon–colored outfit. Her long hair fluttered with the wind as the horse galloped away, and even her silhouette was enough to captivate,
He had never seen this version of Angela before.
To Kenneth, Angela had always been submissive, like a vine clinging to a sturdy tree, too weak to survive without his support
Thus, when their relationship spiraled out of control, Kenneth was caught off guard, feeling like he never truly understood Angela.

Seeing Kenneth’s
“Debra, I feel like riding too. Will you join me?” Jennifer suggested.
Debra and Jennifer exchanged a look, instantly understanding Jennifer’s intention
“Sure, we haven’t ridden together in a long time. Hen, would you like to join us? Debra asked
Henry turned to ask the other, but seeing
ng their lack of interest, he dismissed the idea, saying, “Debra, you go with Jennifer. We’ll wait here for you”
Debra and Jennifer quickly changed into their riding gear and chose smaller, gentler horses.
The rest of the group sat in the rest area beside the field, watching as the two slowly rode into the field.
The field was vast, and Angela’s figure had long disappeared from their view.
After about 15 minutes, Debra and Jennifer were also barely visible in the distance.
The group chatted casually in the resting area. Henry sincerely apologized to Kenneth, “Kenneth, I admit I was foolish before. I realize i now. I promise not to do anything stupid again. Please forgive me this time”

Kenneth calmly looked at Henry and replied, “As long as you keep your love–struck foolishness in check, we won’t have any issues!
Henry was then at a loss for words, not knowing how to respond.
Owen looked at Henry with a complicated expression and spoke up for him. “Kenneth, don’t worry: Upton and I had already s there’s a next time, I doubt he’ll have the face to ask for your forgiveness again.”

Kenneth nodded and ordered coldly, “You better warn your girlfriend to stay away from Angela!”
Henry and Owen exchanged glances, both seting surprise in each other’s eyes.
They thought in disbelief, Is Kenneth actually standing up for Angela right now? But what about Jennifer?”
Owen and Henry had grown up with Jennifer, so they hoped Kenneth would end up with her. Moreover, since Angela had lived in the countryside until she was 16, although they never openly admitted it, they looked down on her, feeling she wasn’t worthy of Kenneth
Henry asked, “Kenneth, now that Jennifer is back, what are you planning to do about Angela?”
Kenneth gave Henry a cold glance and replied emotionlessly, “What does Jennifer’s return have to do with my relationship with Angela?!”
Henry frowned, “Everyone knows you and Jennifer were a couple before, you.”
Before he could finish, Kenneth coldly interrupted him, “You said it yourself. That was before. Now, I only see Jennifer as a sister?
Henry continued. “Then what about Angela? Have you fallen for her?”
The atmosphere around them instantly tensed up after Henry finished speaking.
Kenneth looked at Henry coldly once more. “What happens between Angela and me is our business. I have no obligation to explain it to you.”
Henry realized he had crossed a line with Kenneth and dared not say anything more
Meanwhile, Jennifer and Debra had caught up with Angela at the horse field, surrounding her from both sides.
Debra smirked as she looked on with mockery. “Angela, is your horse too difficult to ride! Let me help you!”
As she finished speaking, she fiercely whipped Angela’s horse on its behind with her riding crop.
The horse, startled by the sudden strike, let out a cry and then bolted forward in a frency
Jennifer and Debra then followed closely behind on their horses, their faces filled with malice, eagerly waiting for Angela to fall off.
A flicker of icy determination passed through Angela’s eyes as she gently pulled the reins to calm the horse and headed in a different direction
To Jennifer and Debra, it looked like Angela was panicking and running aimlessly, as she should have directed the horse toward the stables.
Jennifer and Debra exchanged excited glances, both eager to teach Angela a lesson, hoping she might even end up paralyzed.
They then chased after Angela and eventually cornered her in a secluded spot.
Angela looked at Jennifer and Debra indifferently. What are you both trying to do?”

Debra sneered, “What are we trying to do? Angela, you embarrassed me in front of Lithoria’s largest advertising screen. Don’t you think I should get my revenge?”
Jennifer, who was on the side, quickly chimed in while pretending to be conflicted. “Debra, I don’t think Angels meant any harm by it. How about I have Angela apologize to you? For my sake, can we put this belind us?”
Debra disdainfully raised an eyebrow and replied, “That depends on how sincere her apology is and whether it’s enough to appease me.”
Jennifer turned to Angela and asked with a gentle tone, “Angela, why don’t you apologize to Debra? I don’t want to see you troubled by her
When Angela was watching their coordinated act, her eyes sparkled with amusement. “You two should consider a career in acting. One is sweet- talking yet deceitful, the other fierce and feisty. You both would surely be a hit in showbiz!”
Fuming, Debra’s face turned unsightly grim as she stared coldly at Angela “You’re really asking for it!”
She then raised her riding crop and whipped is fiercely toward Angela’s face. Seeing this, Angela’s eyes narrowed menacingly.
Debra had put all her strength into the blow, and had it landed on Angela’s face, it would have surely disfigured her.
Jennifer, who was beside them, just watched indifferently and had no intention to intervene.
Angela thought that since they were being so malicious, she did not need to hold back.
Just as the whip was about to hit Angela’s face. Debra was suddenly thrown to the ground before she or Jennifer could even discern how Angela hai
