What a nerve-wracking scene!
Over yonder, Theo, about to race Jonah and others, heard the commotion and turned to see this hair-raising spectacle.
Theo was freaked out; he immediately whipped his black thoroughbred around and dashed over.
Over here, after Yvette gave an excited neigh, she landed steadily on all fours and then cheerfully carried Ellinor towards the fields of the racing track, not resisting the rider on her back.
This made Bryan, who was about to rush to the rescue, freeze. He was completely flabbergasted. Ellinor could actually ride Yvette?
How... How is that possible? Haillie was also speechless, disappointed, and pissed off that she didn't see Ellinor tumble off the horse as she had expected.
Why could Ellinor tame this stubborn horse? This horse didn't even let Patricia ride!
Belinda was still scared, but she admired Ellinor even more.
Ellinor could even tame such a wild horse; no wonder she could win her uncle's heart.
Upon confirming that Ellinor was safe, Theo relaxed. He reined in his horse, slowing its pace.
He watched Ellinor riding in the distance with an expression of appreciation for her ability.
It seemed like there was nothing in this world that Ellinor couldn't handle.
"Yvette!"
After running a few laps in the field, Ellinor pulled on the reins to let the horse rest a bit.
Yvette obediently slowed down and leisurely strolled.
Ellinor stroked its mane, "Do you miss your owner?"
