“Oh, I’m here to visit General Murray,” Dustin answered with a smile. Vivian looked at him disdainfully
and commented, “Hmph! What a suck-up!”
Ever since the band-aid incident, she had a grudge against Dustin. But she had to admit that he was
pretty skilled. That was because Vivian found out she had lung cancer after being shot and
hospitalized.
Fortunately, they detected the cancer in time. With Vivian’s family’s wealth, she got the best treatments,
and her condition stabilized.
Meanwhile, Sheila’s attention was on Dustin. “My grandfather has gone out to attend to some matters.
He won’t be back for a while. “Why don’t you come in for coffee first? I have some questions to ask
you, too.”
Without waiting for Dustin’s response, Sheila immediately dragged him into the Murray residence. She
finally got the chance to get close to him. So, Sheila would not let him go.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Sheila, didn’t we agree to practice horseback riding?” Vivian reminded. “Oh, you’re right! I got so
excited that I forgot about it.”
Sheila looked at Dustin and asked cautiously, “Dustin, there’s a horse ranch at the hill behind my
house. Why don’t you hang out with us while waiting for him?
“When my grandfather returns, I’ll take you you?” to meet him. Is that fine with “Sure.” Dustin nodded in
response. After all, he did not want to ruin her mood.
“That’s great. Come on! Let’s go!” Sheila exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear. She turned around and
led the group to the hill at the back of the Murray residence.
“Evan, just look at how happy Sheila is. It seems like she’s interested in this man. You better be
careful,” Vivian lowered her voice and warned Evan.
Evan looked at Dustin with contempt. He sneered, “Hmph! He’s just a martial artist without power or
status. He’s not worthy of Sheila!
“Even if she likes him, the Murray family would never agree. It’s because they’re from different worlds.
“No matter how hard he tries, he’ll never get into our social circle.”
“That’s true.” Vivian nodded noncommittally. She knew Dustin’s martial arts skills were impressive. He
also possessed some knowledge in the field of medicine.
But these two expertise alone were not enough. Sheila was Christopher’s beloved granddaughter. So,
there were three criteria her future husband must meet.
First, he must come from an influential family. Secondly, he has to be full of potential. And lastly, he
must have exceptional skills. Dustin was just an ordinary person. So, he did not meet those criteria.
The Murray residence was huge. Within a ten-mile radius, there were mountains and rivers. Everything
in that area was theirs..
The group walked for over ten minutes. Finally, they arrived at the private horse ranch. It was located at
the foot of the hill.
There were over a hundred horses on the horse ranch. Moreover, most of the horses were of high-
quality breeds. Anyone from the Murray family could train or race horses there. Some talented

Sheila was familiar with the surroundings. She called over the stable manager and led everyone into
the stable. They were getting ready to choose which horse they would ride.
The stable was large and had numerous stalls with horses. Since the workers cleaned the stable
regularly, it was spotless. They could even smell a hint of grassy and woody aroma.
“Dustin, what do you think of this horse?” Sheila asked as she led him to a white horse. The white
horse was around five feet tall. It had a well-rounded and graceful body with a slender neck and limbs.
It also had a shiny coat.
The horse moved with a light, elegant gait. It looked majestic. “Not bad. It’s truly a fine horse,” Dustin
nodded with admiration.
“Hehe! This is Gale, and he’s my ride. Whenever I’m free, I’ll come by to visit him.” As Sheila spoke,
she reached out to stroke the horse’s face. “Dustin, don’t underestimate Gale. He’s a prized horse.”
“Every time my family hosts horse races, Gale never loses. He’s always the champion!” Shelia’s eyes
lit up. As soon as Sheila said that, a voice came from the stable entrance.
“Never loses? Well, today, I’ll be the winner!”
