Faced with Sydney's steady, unwavering gaze, Julien suddenly found it difficult to look into her eyes.
He was afraid that she might see through him, so he looked away. "You look pale. It's not suitable for you to ride a horse."
When everyone heard him, they looked at Sydney’s face in unison.
Luke spoke first, "He's right, Darling. Why are you still so pale? Are you still affected by motion sickness?”
Sydney touched her own face. "Am I that pale?"
"A little,” Sharon replied.
Sydney smiled. "It's fine, then. I can ride.”
When Julien heard this, his eyebrows became tight-knit, and his expression was filled with disapproval.
Sydney did not have the slightest awareness of her pregnancy.
Could horse riding be more important than the child in her womb?
Just as Julien wanted to forcibly stop Sydney, Luke said, "Darling, why don't you go back and take a rest? You can ride a horse next time. What if you get dizzy again?”
Julien nodded in agreement. Finally, Luke did something useful this time and not just listened to whatever Sydney wanted.
However, Sydney was stubborn. She smiled and said, " I'm fine. Since I'm already here, why should I go back? I'll ride on horseback slowly. No running involved."
"Alright, then." Luke thought that it was fine, so he agreed and pulled Sydney to the stable.
Julien looked at their silhouette with his darkened expression.
Just when he felt that Luke did something useful, he regretted it the next moment.
What did she see in him? He had no persistence at all.
"Bro, come and race!" Jayden called for Julien from the other side of the park.
Julien glanced at his silly brother and ignored him. He got onto his horse and went to the other side instead.
Very quickly, Sydney and Luke picked a horse and came out of the stable.
She picked a white mare.
The mare was beautiful, and Sydney, who had changed into a red riding suit, looked even more outstanding. When Sydney stood together with the mare, the scene was picturesque enough that one would want to take a photo.
Hunter came over with his horse and whistled when he saw Sydney. "Not bad, you look like a heroine from the movies."
"Sydney, you look beautiful." Jayden was not good with words, so he did not know any flattering compliments. He used the simplest words instead.
However, the simplest words were also the most straightforward, and they could move people's hearts.
Even if Sydney never wanted to talk to anyone from the Flint Family. She threw Jayden a glance and acknowledged him. "Boy, you have a good eye."
Jayden visibly brightened up at her words.
Sydney finally talked to him.
Julien was on his horseback nearby. He looked toward the three of them who were chatting away, and he had an inexplicable sense of discomfort. He wanted to chase Hunter and Jayden away from Sydney.
Just then, Luke came out of the stable on his horseback. He went to the racetrack together with Hunter, Jayden, and Sharon.
Sydney did not want to interfere with their race, so she led her horse to the other side of the park.
She had not ridden a horse in years, and she had become unfamiliar with how to get onto a horse. When she attempted, she almost fell from the horse.
Julien had his heart at his throat when he watched her. He soon rode over and said, "When you use your left foot to get up, grab the saddle at the same time and pull yourself up. Your right leg has to get up on time as well."
Sydney turned around and stared at him. "Are you coaching me?”
Julien did not deny it. "Just do as I say."
Sydney remained silent for a few moments and decided not to refuse.
After all, she came to ride a horse. Having a coach was naturally the best.
What could go wrong?
Sydney recalled Julien's words and followed the steps.
Unfortunately, she still could not get onto the horse.
When she was about to sweep her right leg across the horse, she did not stretch herself out earlier so she got stuck halfway. Worse still, she could not withdraw her leg.
She then lost her balance and fell backward.
When Julien saw that, his expression changed and he got off his horse immediately. He reached out his arm to catch her.
Sydney thought that she would fall to the ground and mentally prepared herself.
