Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Speaking without Trust, Breaking the Agreement
âAlthough Mr. Yigol Mamet was a bit scared, he couldnât help but run over when he saw Xaviera riding the tall horse so handsomely
Xaviera gently stroked the horse and whispered a few words to it, then swiftly dismounted.
Following that, Yigol effortlessly mounted the horse, which began to run with him at a fast pace without any intention of throwing him off. After a round, the horse obediently returned to the starting point.
The crowd was extremely astonished.
âThis horse seems well behaved!â
âYeah, you can see that itâs been trained and has a clever mind. It even knew to bring Mr. Yigol Mamet back to the starting point. We just donât know why it was so unruly before.â
âMrs. Mamet said she couldnât ride, yet she was able to tame this horse. Meanwhile, Miss Woods said she was an expert rider but got thrown off by this horse.â
Upon hearing this, some people began to doubt: âMiss Woods, could it be that you donât know how to ride at all? This horse is clearly gentle.â
âEven if sheâs the daughter of the Woods family, itâs fine if she canât ride. But boasting about her horsemanship and initially mocking Mrs. Mamet for not being able to ride, then snatching the horse away from her.â
Zaraâs face was as pale as paper, her teeth clenched in rage, then she glared at Xaviera viciously.
She had actually lost to that bitch Xaviera!
At this moment, someone abruptly asked, âSo many people placed bets earlier, and now that Mrs. Mamet has tamed the horse, isnât it time to fulfill the promise?â
Zara lowered her head even more.
âSomeone said earlier that Mrs. Mamet was capricious, causing Mr. Caleb Mamet to lose 5% of his shares because of her wanting to save face. Now, whoâs the cause of Mr. Drew losing his shares?â
âMrs. Mamet was right. Some people just bring it upon themselves, insisting on snatching away someone elseâs horse, and itâs ultimately embarrassing and hurtful to themselves.â
At this moment, Zara felt as if a bomb had exploded inside her heart, and she desperately wanted to crawl into a crack in the ground.
She hurriedly refuted, âI⊠I merely made a casual remark earlier and didnât mean to criticize Xaviera. Besides, Iâve also said, even if Xaviera loses, I wonât take Calebâs shares.â
As soon as her words fell, Xaviera sneered, âCanât take the pressure? Mr. Drew, both you and Miss Woods are well-known members of the upper class, yet you donât keep your word. You were quite happy to place bets earlier, but now that you see Iâve won, you refuse to fulfill your promises?â
Xaviera spread her hands helplessly, âFine then, if you donât want to give, then let it be. I canât force you. But if this gets out, people might say Miss Woods contradicted herself after losing and that Mr. Drew is an untrustworthy person.â
Though her tone was indifferent, red and white hues flashed across Zara and Boyd Drewâs faces.
âYes, whoever loses face knows in their hearts.â
Yigol derisively and arrogantly commanded, âSomeone! Get these people out! They dare to cause trouble on my newly opened horse ranch, clearly looking down on me, the Little Master of the Mamet family!â
At this order, the bodyguards immediately charged forward.
Yigol roared confidently, âToday Iâve truly seen something new â people who place bets but dare to renege on them. Their faces must be thick!â
Everyone felt extremely awkward.
Zara knew that if they fulfilled the bet, the loss would be devastating, and even the entire Woods family would not be enough to compensate.
She quickly approached Xaviera, and Xaviera felt a slight pain on the back of her hand.
Xaviera didnât let her feelings show, and merely observed Zaraâs little act with indifference.
Zara gently advised, âYigol, donât be angry. This was actually just a joke.â
Yigol immediately retaliated, âXaviera didnât want to bet with you in the first place, but you all insisted one after another. Now that youâve lost, you say it was just a joke? Zara, you say itâs a joke, but when everyone was pressuring Xaviera to ride earlier, why didnât I see you stop them? I think you just wanted to see Xaviera humiliated but never thought sheâd actually tame the horse!â
Zara was left speechless and her face turned sullen. ÆĐłeeweÉnà«Švel.com
Yigolâs invited friends also joined in the discussion.
âI didnât know you could back out of bets. In that case, let me find someone to bet with. If I lose, Iâll say it was just a joke. If I win, Iâll ask to fulfill the bet. Either way, I canât lose.â
Everyone laughed, âHaha, you got a point!â
