Chapter 121 Delicate Soul

Simon entered the private room, carrying an air of nonchalance as if he were alone.However, Charlotte didn't feel relieved; instead, she felt panic.Without Griffith's gesture, Simon wouldn't have done this.She couldn't shake off the uneasy feeling. She sensed a chill run down her spine, fearing that Griffith's presence posed a dangerous situation.While she was deep in thought, a new arm settled on her shoulder. She turned her face slightly, and it brushed against the person's wrist. The faint touch left her puzzled.Simon sat down boldly and focused his gaze on her face while directing his words at Griffith."Griffith, can I have my woman back?"The room fell silent.Griffith burst into laughter, though the mirth didn't reach his eyes. His tone had a dangerous edge as he said, "Where is your woman?"Simon looked at Charlotte, still smiling but saying nothing. Charlotte felt anxious, wanting to move the man's hand off her shoulder but having nowhere to hide. Griffith whis

Chapter 122 Horse Racing

The so-called provocation strategy was quite cunning.Not responding would lead to being mocked, while responding would play right into their hands.Whether he responded or not, it was a frustrating situation.Charlotte's remarks had put Griffith in a bind.No one in the room dared to witness Griffith's embarrassment. Someone took the initiative to suggest the pleasure of night horse racing."Horse racing alone isn't very interesting. We stopped doing that when we were teenagers."Simon looked at the person who spoke, smiling with a hint of mischief. "What kind of game do you find enjoyable, Mr. Dean?""Let's bet on the horses."The group became interested.Seizing the opportunity, Charlotte leaned forward slightly, her chest nearly touching the table's edge. Avoiding Griffith's grasp, she asked, "How do we bet?"Mr. Dean lit a cigarette and explained, "Of course, Mr. Wilson and Mr. Lewis won't need to participate personally. Each person will choose a horse, and we'll appoint

Chapter 123 Choosing a Horse

Seeing a horse collapse before her eyes, Charlotte's heart skipped a beat, and her steps instinctively slowed down, just like everyone else's.On the other hand, Allison remained composed and continued walking alongside Griffith, saying, "It's a Friesian horse. What a pity."Griffith's expression remained indifferent, and his tone lacked emotion as he replied, "It's only a pity if it's useless."Allison nodded in agreement. "You're right."Charlotte overheard their conversation but chose to stay silent. Suddenly, someone leaned in close and whispered in her ear, "Are you jealous?"It was Simon.Charlotte maintained her composure and turned her head slightly to reply, "Honestly, with how obsessed you are with him, I think you're the one who's probably jealous."Simon chuckled. "When it comes to saying nauseating nonsense, you and this female PR expert are neck and neck.""That's quite a compliment."The two spoke in hushed tones, and no one should have been paying attention to

Chapter 124 The Stakes

The crowd had just offered a few compliments, but the horse seemed to deliberately go against the tide, lifting its front hooves and displaying a frenetic state.The owner quickly called someone, and Charlotte noticed a tranquilizer dart among the tools.Without waiting for the owner's order, Griffith calmly stepped forward.Charlotte's heart skipped a beat.Allison immediately called out, "Mr. Wilson!"Everyone was stunned.The horse was quite spirited, sensing the nearby danger and detecting Griffith's extraordinary aura. In an instant, as he drew closer, the horse shook its mane and assumed a fully armed stance.However, even in such a state, Griffith seized the opportunity and skillfully mounted the horse.His movements were so fast that they left people in shock.Unable to accept this change, the horse tried to dislodge him by repeatedly lifting its front hooves to toss him off.However, Griffith held the reins firmly, unwavering like a mountain.After trying to fling h

Chapter 125 A Provocative Kiss

As soon as Simon spoke, Charlotte sensed he had provocative words in store.Sure enough, he smirked slightly and addressed Griffith, "If I win, please be a good sport and return my woman to me, Mr. Wilson."Charlotte closed her eyes briefly. She was growing increasingly irritated.Earlier, she had refused to participate because she didn't want to become the tool of their bet. Now that she was high up on the observation deck, she still didn't want to be treated as a bargaining chip.With these thoughts, her expression grew stern.Beside her, the man's firm and unyielding voice reached her ears, "For the last time, I haven't seen your woman."He turned his face to the side, raised his hand, and gently pulled back the loosening strap of Charlotte's mask.Charlotte gasped and instinctively raised her hand.With a languid yet confident tone, he continued, "Only my woman is next to me."His gaze shifted downward and locked onto her blinking eyes. His voice was mocking and provocativ

Chapter 126 Beauty and The Beast

Simon's horse was indeed good, and the woman riding it was experienced. She knew how to conserve energy and did not constantly charge ahead. As for Griffith's choice of horse, it had been trailing behind, neither too far nor too close to the lead, managing to keep up with the main group.Charlotte was caught up in the atmosphere and remained tense even though she had not placed a bet. She knew Griffith too well. If he were to lose, it would be a loss of face for him, and the situation would not look good. As for Simon, he seemed to have thick skin, and if he lost, it probably would not bother him much. Hence, Charlotte hoped that Griffith would win."That horse is quite impressive, holding on without faltering," Simon remarked as he watched Allison's horse fall further behind.Charlotte glanced at Griffith. He remained silent, his emotions unreadable.In the arena, the horses had reached halfway. Simon's horse had gradually moved to the front. The cheers grew louder, and those who

Chapter 127 Allison Wants the Horse

Charlotte remained silent for a moment."At the very least, you can acknowledge the favor of saving your life, or I'll be very disappointed," Simon said in a low voice, giving her goosebumps.'The man is a real troublemaker,' she thought. She remained calm and replied, "It's an honor to be your friend, Mr. Simon.""Good," Simon said with satisfaction as he stood up. With his hands in his pockets, he looked at Charlotte."Remember to invite me for a meal to thank me properly," he said."Of course," Charlotte said with a smile.After Simon left, Charlotte turned around, only to find that Griffith had already left the observation deck. She contemplated for a moment, then readied to leave. However, Ash said, "Don't you want to take a look at that horse?"Charlotte was puzzled. "The horse?""The useless horse, the untamed one. The racetrack won't keep them if they aren't profitable," he explained.Charlotte hesitated and then recalled the horse that had fallen before her eyes. Up

Chapter 128 Negotiation

Charlotte was already convinced that Griffith would give the horse to Allison, but the next moment, he said, "I'll have a set of jewelry delivered to the Garden of Eden tomorrow morning."Allison was stunned.Griffith lit a cigarette. With his other hand, he fed grass to the nearest white horse. The white horse, tall and majestic, lowered its head in front of him, eating docilely.The owner looked at him, then glanced at Charlotte and Allison."Mr. Griffith, what about this... wild horse?""Handle it according to the racetrack's rules," Griffith replied, then dropped the horse's food and walked away.Charlotte stood still for a moment, then quickly chased after him. "Griffith!"But he did not stop. She continued to follow, grabbing his arm. As they entered the indoor area, Allison wanted to follow, but Ash said something to her, causing her to change her mind.Charlotte looked back and saw the horse was already being dragged away. Before she could say anything, her hand was sha

Chapter 129 It's Yours If You Can Retrieve It

Charlotte regretted not praying for Simon to win, as Griffith was truly despicable. If they kept bickering like this, the horse's fate would be sealed. She gritted her teeth and shouted, "A million dollars!"Griffith chuckled and ignored her.Charlotte removed a bracelet from her wrist and said, "I'm betting this! It was my mother's."Griffith fell silent for a moment. The bracelet did look quite valuable. But to gamble with a memento from her deceased mother was foolish. He looked into her eyes, and she seemed determined. Fine, she asked for it. He turned and walked away. Charlotte's eyes lit up, and she quickly followed him."Did you accept?" she asked.Griffith did not speak until they reached the gambling table. He looked at her and said, "I won't give you any face if you lose."Charlotte took off the cheap bracelet, handling it with great care. She looked at him and said, "Don't worry, I'll keep my word."Griffith leaned back and asked, "How do you want to bet?""I don't

Chapter 130 Talking to the Horse

Charlotte rushed downstairs, barely paying attention to her small injuries. Back at the stables, the scent of blood grew stronger. She walked along the horse stalls, one by one, until she reached the stubborn horse at the very end.Unlike when it entered the arena, it seemed more desolate, leaning in the corner quietly. Although Allison had removed its restraints in the arena, she had used quite a bit of force during the intense race to control it. As a result, when she unbridled it, it had sustained several wounds on its neck that were now oozing blood.Charlotte watched with a heavy heart. She turned to a young female worker nearby. The girl approached and asked if she had any instructions."Was this horse like this when it arrived?" Charlotte inquired.The girl shook her head. "No, it acted up after being drugged."Charlotte was baffled. The girl continued, "Don't think only humans have emotions. Animals do too. This horse is a bit peculiar. It has a bad temper and is stubborn.
