Chapter 1030
“You scared me!” Arissa hammered Benjamin's chest, her face lingering with worry. The man flashed her a devilish
smirk and chuckled. “Sorry, my bad.”
Arissa glared at him and snapped, “Why didn't you tell me before you were going to do that?”
Benjamin sat her down and assured her, “I'm confident to not let you fall. My heart will ache if that happens.”
Arissa's heart raced as she felt his hot breath sweep past her face.
Benjamin circled her waist tightly with his arms and said, “Sit tight! Let me take you for a ride!”
Black Wind started galloping when Benjamin gave its ribcage a light squeeze with his legs.
That was Arissa's first time experiencing a horse's speed.
It was thrilling, but she became increasingly uneasy when the horse ran faster and the ride became bumpy.
“Slow down... Please slow down...” she pleaded.
Benjamin's lips twitched in amusement when he saw Arissa's anxious expression.
He directed, “Lean slightly forward and follow the horse's momentum. Just relax!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFollowing his advice, the woman eventually got more comfortable.
“Are you feeling better?” asked Benjamin, whispering next to her ear as he controlled Black Wind to slow down.
Arissa's eyes brightened as she replied delightfully, “Yeah!”
The man gave her a quick peck on the cheek before getting Black Wind to pick up speed.
Arissa felt her ears burn as a sweet sensation swarmed within her heart.
The two of us riding the same horse seems like a scene straight out of a romantic period drama.
Benjamin rode with Arissa for a couple more laps to let her experience the thrill of speed.
After getting the horse to slow down, he asked, “Well? What do you think? Was it fun?”
“It certainly was!” Arissa responded enthusiastically as Benjamin's breath fanned a few stray strands of her hair.
He smiled as he saw Arissa's cheerful face before directing Black Wind to a narrow path.
Perturbed by his actions, Arissa turned and asked, “Where are we going?”
Benjamin's eyes gleamed as he lowered his gaze to her. “The view over there is awesome. Let me show you.”
Arissa smiled and returned her gaze to the front. To her surprise, the view in front of her was stunning, unlike
anything she had ever seen.
“Wow! It smells great here!” Arissa inhaled deeply as she marveled at the breathtaking scenery. “I had no idea the
ranch has such a lovely landscape.”
Benjamin stroked her hair gently and teased, “What did you expect a ranch to look like?”
Arissa grinned so widely that her eyes became mere slits. “I expected it to only have racetracks and nothing else.”
“To manage a ranch well, one must also think outside the box and keep up with trends!” he replied.
Arissa turned around to gaze at Benjamin when he started talking business, and in response, the man lifted his
brow and asked, “Do you like the view at the racetracks better, or do you like a spacious ranch better?”
The woman giggled and responded, “I like being close to nature!”
Benjamin's eyes twinkled with a smile as he controlled Black Wind to speed up. “Let me bring you to experience the
wonders of nature, then!”
Arissa blinked, unsure if he was referring to what she assumed.
“There's a meadow here?” she asked.
Benjamin simply grinned without responding.
A few minutes later, the narrow shady path disappeared from sight. Instead, they were greeted by a wide green

“Wow!” Arissa gasped when she saw the vast open meadow that seemed to stretch far to the horizon. There was
even a mountain range some distance away.
“It's so huge!” she said in astonishment. The place was more than ten times the size of the race tracks earlier.
Arissa turned to Benjamin and asked, “Why didn't you bring me here right away?”
The man replied calmly, “You need some warm-up before you can come horse-riding here. I'm sure if I brought you
here right away, you wouldn't be able to stop yourself from galloping away.”
Arissa chuckled quietly, impressed that Benjamin knew her so well.
She did not really know how to ride a horse, but the scenery here was so beautiful that she wouldn't be able to
resist galloping around recklessly.
“Come on, get your horse to speed up!” Arissa urged Benjamin excitedly.
The man smirked and instructed, “All right, sit tight!”
“Okay!” Arissa nodded enthusiastically.
“Hyah!” Benjamin gave Black Wind a kick, and they took off.
