Chapter 121
“I’ve been busy lately, so I couldn’t pay you a visit. It’s not that I don’t like you. Why are you angry?”
“Does it understand what you said?” Marshall walked up to her at some point.
Stella nodded. “Juno is definitely the smartest horse here. I remember one time I said that another horse
was better looking right in front of Juno. Then, to my surprise, it deliberately spat the water it was
drinking right at me. That shows that not only does it understand my words, but it also holds grudges
worse than humans!”
Juno seemed to know that Stella was talking about it. So, it stomped its feet unhappily.
Stella quickly changed her tone to coax it. “Be good. I was just praising how good–looking you are.”
Juno suddenly pivoted toward Stella. From five centimeters above its left eye, a scar crossed the eye,
making it appear dim and distinct from its bright right eye. Despite this imperfection, the scar gave Juno a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtregal and intimidating appearance. It was like a warrior that stood out among thousands of troops,
drawing attention.
Stella was startled by Juno’s sudden move. However, once it took the apple away from her hand, it
pointed its ass at her again.
Stella was at loss for words again.
Marshall smiled. “Looks like it does like
you.”
Trevor, who was standing not far away, had been watching them for a while. He turned to Keegan and
asked, “This horse has a personality. Is it tamable?”
Keegan looked at Stella, who was talking to Juno with his half–closed eyes, and said flatly, ” Piece of
cake.”
“Piece of cake?”
“We can have a match.”
Trevor was a little eager to try. “How about two laps?”
Keegan said, “Pick a horse.”
Trevor was a skillful equestrian. It was humble of him to claim that he was merely a hobbyist in front of
Cordelia. He had actually participated in amateur equestrian competitions before and even won awards.
With a cursory examination of the horses in the stable, Trevor was able to identify which of them had the
potential. He quickly selected a maroon horse for the match. It happened to be the only one among the
horses to have ever won a race.
Trevor took the horse and greeted Marshall. “Marshall, wanna ride two laps?”
Marshall waved his hand and said, “Nah, you guys do your best.”
The horse trainer led Juno out. Juno stretched its muscles, and its coat looked particularly gleaming
under the sun.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKeegan threw his tie and jacket to Stella after removing them. As he passed by her, he asked, ” Who do
you think will win?”
Stella snorted. “Even if you win, the credit goes to Juno!”
Keegan slightly pursed his lips and said nothing further. He got onto Juno, and once he pulled the reins,
Juno trotted to the track.
“Since it’s a match, there must be a prize,” said Trevor.
“What do you want?”
Trevor smirked in high spirits. “How about the loser has to call the winner ‘big brother‘?”
Stella was speechless. She thought, ‘What’s so great about that as a prize?‘
Marshall explained, “They were born only five days apart, but Keegan has always refused to call Trevor
‘big brother‘. I didn’t expect that Trevor hasn’t let go of this after so many years.”
Stella shrugged. “It’s just the kind of silly thing guys do.”
Marshall looked at her and was taken aback.
Stella smiled with a knowing look. “Don’t all guys just love being called ‘father‘ by others?”
