Chapter 407

Teresa strutted into the horse field. Eleanor’s hand was balled into a tight fist

She watched as Teresa hopped onto a horse, quickly catching up to Bernard as if they were old friends.

Bernard slowed his horse, tuming as Teresa directed him to look towards Eleanor, who was sitting in

the rest area.

Teresa and Bemard looked well–matched on their horses, while Eleanor, who couldn’t ride, was stuck

watching from a distance.

Despair washed over Eleanor. Coming from a lower–class background, learning these high–society

skills was always going to be an uphill battle.

Despite having just snapped back at Teresa, Eleanor was still feeling a pang of inferiority deep down.

So, she averted her gaze and started heading towards the changing room.

Teresa said to Bernard, “Bernard, Ms. Shultz is acting high and mighty just because you’re on her back.

Don’t you think you should do something about it?”

Bemard glanced at Eleanor and, from his saddle, he pulled a thin whip, and with a swift motion, he

lashed it at the rear of Teresa’s horse

The horse reared up with a painful whinny and bolted around the track like a bat out of hell.

Teresa barely managed to hold onto the reins and avoid getting thrown off, but she ended up half

hanging off the side of the horse, struggling to right herself

In her upside–down view, she saw Bernard, sitting on his white horse with his shades on, watching her

coldly. Her heart sank even more.

She thought, why was he so gentle with Eleanor, but so icy towards her? If her riding skills weren’t

decent, that whip could have killed her!

Bernard said nothing, turned his horse around, and bolted towards the stables.

His friends, seeing him suddenly angry, turned their backs on Teresa, too.

“Who invited Teresa? Didn’t they know Bernard couldn’t stand her since school?”

“Was it Leo? He’s always been chummy with Teresa.”

At this, Leo reigned his horse back and slipped away, trying to act like he didn’t know anything.

Eleanor just stepped out of the changing room when she saw Bernard heading her wiry.

He took off his sunglasses and asked Eleanor, “are you tired, Ellie?”

She nodded slightly but before she could answer, Bernard said, “Wait for me here, I’m going to

change.”

He swiftly turned and disappeared into the changing room. As he did so, the rest of the guys also

started to leave.

After changing, Bernard said goodbye to his friends and led Eleanor towards the exit

Just as they reached the door, a woman wearing a white feathered mask appeared.

The mask covered only her eyes, giving her the look of someone who had just come from a

masquerade ball and forgotten to take it off.

What caught Eleanor’s attention wasn’t the mask, but the face beneath it.

She had already thought Sophie and Teresa were the epitome of beauty, but this worian was even

more stunning.

She was tall and curvaceous, an aura about her seemed to suggest she was more than human.

This elegant, beautiful woman now paused her graceful steps to look at Bernard.

Bernard just glanced at her, then took Eleanor’s hand and walked towards the exit.

As they passed, the woman tapped her mask three times with her delicate fingers.

Understanding the Morse code–like message, Bernard suddenly stopped.

He gently said to Eleanor, “Ellie, wait for me here…”

Eleanor, sensing he was going to meet the masked woman, held onto his hand tighte

Her intuition told her that this woman was even more of a threat than Sophie and Temsa.

But Bernard let go of her hand, turned around, and quickly followed the woman towards a secluded

area…..
