Chapter 543: Chapter 543: Open for Business, Welcome Both Humans and Ghosts
Boyd Drew gave a gentle, elegant smile as he was followed by a dozen people behind him.
Yigol Mametâs face was gloomy as he muttered in a low voice, âNot welcomedâŠâ
âSince itâs open for business, it naturally doesnât matter whether itâs a human or a ghost.â Xaviera Evans spoke first, a mocking smile on her face.
âTheyâre all guests, of course, we should welcome them. We canât be picky when doing business, right, Caleb?â
Zara Woodsâs smile was stiff.
Yigol Mamet reluctantly echoed, âSister-in-law is right. Iâm in business, after all. I donât care who the other party is, as long as they pay. So, welcome, everyone.â
Zara didnât pay any attention to Yigol Mamet and walked directly to Xavieraâs side.
âXaviera, can you give me this horse?â
Yigol Mamet suddenly became angry, âZara, although my horse farm isnât big, there are thousands of horses for you to choose from. Why do you have to have Xavieraâs horse? Have you forgotten what you did at the design contest? And you still dare to come in front of Xaviera and annoy her, donât you feel bothered?â
These sarcastic words made everyoneâs faces change.
Zaraâs eyes were full of resentment as she suppressed her anger, âThe previous incident was a misunderstanding. I was deceived by Jason. And⊠Iâve already apologized. I just think this horse is too big and Iâm afraid Xaviera will get hurt. I mean well, but I didnât expect you to think of me this way.â
As Yigol Mamet was about to explain that the horse belonged to Xaviera, Xaviera simply nodded, speaking before him, âMiss Woods is really kind!â
Everyone looked at Xaviera, who unfastened the rein and looked indifferent, âI donât know much about horses, I just chose one at random. Since Miss Woods said itâs not suitable for me, then forget it. Iâm also afraid of getting hurt.â
Caleb Mamet gave a meaningful smile.
Zaraâs face was triumphant. Xaviera was quite pragmatic! freewŃbnà«ŠÎœeÉ.com
Immediately afterward, Xaviera spoke nonchalantly, âSince Miss Woods has been insisting that this horse isnât suitable for me, and claiming to be an expert in riding, that means Miss Woods has the ability to control this horse, right? Why donât Miss Woods demonstrate how to handle this horse herself and let us learn something.â
Zara gently looked at Caleb, âCaleb, what do you think? Iâm not trying to steal Xavieraâs things. Itâs just that sheâŠâ
The manâs expression was indifferent, his thin lips lightly opened, âWhatever.â
Everyone was taken aback. It was rumored that Caleb Mamet and Zara Woods had completely fallen out, but now they watched as Zara took Xavieraâs horse, and he said nothing. Did Caleb still have feelings for Zara?
Zaraâs face filled with gratitude, âCaleb, thank you.â
She spoke gently, âXaviera, Iâll take this horse then. If I can tame it, Iâll bring it back and let you try it out.â
Xaviera smiled, âSure! Iâll be looking forward to your good news! I think with your skills, you shouldnât fail! After all, you are an expert in riding!â
Xaviera then tossed the rein to Zara.
Zara didnât find anything strange; instead, Xavieraâs quick agreement gave her a strong sense of confidence.
Everyone was also waiting for Zara to demonstrate her superb riding skills, ready to deride Mrs. Mametâs arrogance and teach her a lesson.
Zara smiled triumphantly. In fact, she couldnât tell the nature of the horse at all. She just saw that Xaviera was not wearing riding gear and obviously didnât know how to ride. The horse was well-behaved by Xavieraâs side, seeming like a gentle horse with no difficulty.
She didnât care whether she could control the horse or not; as long as she could snatch it from Xaviera, she would feel happy.
As long as she rode the horse around once, she could imply that Xaviera was incompetent, not only losing her own face but also embarrassing Caleb.
Zaraâs lips curved up in a smug smile as she nodded, âIn that case, let me give it a try.â
As soon as her words fell, Zara grabbed the rein, posed to mount in a standard manner, but in the next secondâ
The originally gentle horse suddenly raised its head, neighed loudly, and directly threw Zara away.
Zara was startled, holding the rein steady, stepping on the stirrup with her heart pounding.
Roarâ
The horse let out a long neigh, acting aggressively, which scared Zara pale.
