Chapter 1097
"Let me check it out."
Jared threw his club on the ground, after which he climbed into a cart and made a beeline for Nicole.
Meanwhile, at the other side of the field, Nicole and Carl were already racing one other.
"Carl, is your horse running out of stamina?"
Nicole turned back at gave Carl a smirk as if to mock him for not being able to keep up.
"Don''t get ahead of yourself just yet." Carl grinned.
"Just watch.I''ll be the one you''ll have to race after soon enough."
He knocked his horse on its nk, urging it to speed up.
The two of them rode on and galloped across the field.
Soon after, Jared arrived, having sped over and parked his cart on a spot in close proximity to them.
When he got down, he directed his gaze at Nicole, who was still dashing across the course atop her
stallion.He could not help but smile at the sight; it seemed that Nicole and Pinto had developed a much
stronger bond.
Nicole was still cantering down the field when she looked over her shoulder.
It was then that she saw a cart parked in close proximity, with a familiar figure standing beside it.
Seeing this, she turned the horse around and made a beeline for Jared.
Carl was in hot pursue, but when he saw Nicole turning around, his brows creased.
"Jared, when did you arrive?"
Nicole approached Jared with a grin on her face.
"I''ve been here for some time now.I saw you on horseback having fun after I''ve taken care of my
business, so I decided toe over, "
Jared said, happy to see Nicole, especially after witnessing the style in which she rode.
At that instant, Carl rode, and when he called out to Jared, his brows were furrowed.
"Jared?"

"Hey, how is it going?"
Jared greeted in response.
"Do any of the horses here suit you?"
"Well, they''re not bad at all," Carl replied.
"Miss Riddle, you looked really cool on horseback!"
Fiore butted in when nobody saw hering.
"Fiore, what are you doing here?" Nicole asked with a brow raised.
"Didn''t Jared tell you? I invited him for a game of golf today.We saw you after a few games," Fiore
said, cing a particr emphasis on the fact that she was the one who asked Jared out.
Naturally, Nicole understood what Fiore was up to.
Nicole darted her eyes at her, and then at Jared, after which she replied, "Jared told me about the
game, and he said that it was such a coincidence that we were out here at the same time." Nicole
deliberately said that so that Fiore would not get a chance to brag.
"Do you guys want to ride around for a while longer?" Jared quickly seized the opportunity to ask
Nicole, as he was already feeling awkward.
"Of course.Carl and I just made a bet.He''ll be buying us dinner if he loses the race," Nicole said while
narrowing her eyes on Carl.
But Carl only responded by creasing his brows.
When did he even make such a bet?
"Okay, I''ll join you guys, then."
Jared smiled.
"I feel like riding too.Why don''t we all go together as a group?"
Fiore said, forcing herself into the picture without bothering to ask anyone if they were willing to
include her.
Then, she shot Jared a nce.
Jared did not have the heart to say no, so he replied, "Follow me then."
Fiore got onto Jared''s cart with a beam, and together, the headed for the stables.
Nicole maintained her stare at the buggy, and it was then that Carl approached Nicole, tracking her
gaze.
"This Fio- something.How could she be so casual around Jared? How did she pull that off?"
Carl was stating his thoughts in a half- joking manner, as he was attempting to lessen the awkwardness
which was a result of the interaction.
"Who knows if..."
"If you can''t beat me, you''ll have to buy me a round of dinner."
Nicole eyed Carl at an instant.
Then, she whirled around and sped off into the distance.
"Hey, when did I even agree to this?" Carl asked as he raced after her.
