Chapter 405
Bemard felt a bit of a weight lift off his chest when he saw her smile.
He grabbed her hand and led her to the changing room. After helping her into her riding gear, he turned
and ordered someone to fetch his own. Eleanor waited outside, leaning against the fence and idly
kicking at the rocks. Suddenly, the door behind her slowly opened…
He was perfectly proportioned, wearing a white tight shirt and a black belt around his waist.
His lower half was in white riding breeches, and he wore black knee–high riding boots
Holding a helmet in one hand, he stood against the light,with his head slightly tilted.
He walked up to Eleanor and buckled the helmet on her.
As he did all this, every move he made radiated an innate nobility and elegance:
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEleanor was a bit taken aback looking at Bernard. But he didn’t seem to mind and led her to pick a
horse.
He chose a very gentle pony for Eleanor. He helped her into the saddle and led the pony around the
ring.
Eleanor looked down at the man teaching her to ride and smiled.
“I might need some time to get the hang of it, you go to hang with your friends…”
He looked kind of funny leading a pony that was shorter than him, and people in the ring started
laughing at him..
Eleanor felt bad making him stay with her and let him be the butt of his friends‘ jokes so she told him to
go with his friends.
Bernard glanced at the men who were laughing and said to Eleanor, “Just wait here for me.”
He didn’t want to ride, but he wanted to make those who laughed at him regret their words.
He lifted Eleanor down from the pony, left her under the guard of his bodyguards, and mounted a tall
white horse.
Pulling on the reins, he quickly charged off toward the far end of the ring where he could go full
speed….
Eleanor watched his tall figure on the horse.
Just as he said, he really was a superb rider.
She sat in the rest area, watching Bernard ride, when suddenly someone appeared in front of her.
“Ms. Shultz, long time no see.”
The woman in the white riding gear looked down at Eleanor, with her hands behind her back.
Hearing the familiar voice, Eleanor looked up and saw Teresa blocking her view. Her face fell slightly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTeresa ignored Eleanor’s reaction and just sat down next to her. Her eyes were full of obsession,
always staring at Bernard in the ring.
“Do you know, I fell deeply in love with him when I saw him ride in college…”
Eleanor didn’t really want to hear Teresa recounting her non–existent past, but Teresa carried on
anyway.
“Back then, Bernard only agreed to compete riding to help our medical school.”
“He blew all the med students away the moment he appeared, especially me. That’s when I fell for him
deeply.” “But he’s so cold, almost no girls dared to approach him. And he didn’t let any girls get close to
him either…”
She paused here and turned to look at Eleanor, sizing her up.
“You’re gorgeous. But I think I’m pretty too. Why wouldn’t he give me the time of day, but treats you so
differently?
