Isla’s eyes immediately flashed with a hint of gloom!
She lowered her gaze to hide the excitement within and exchanged a look with Melissa, both of their eyes
glittering with shrewdness.
What was something that poor ordinary people couldn't even cinto contact with, but for the upper class, it
was as commonplace as household meals?
Of course, it was the equestrian club!
Equestrian lessons were prohibitively expensive, and an average family simply couldn't afford them. Moreover, a
batch of foals was worth hundreds of
thousands. Even after purchasing, there were still costs of keeping them in a ranch, with the minimum annual
expense being in the region of two hundred thousand or more.
Ordinary middle-class families simply couldn't afford

Therefore, only those who were wealthy and powerful

could afford horseback riding lessons!
Today, they had to make Keira lose face at the equestrian club, giving Nathan an excuse to pull Lewis down from
the position of family head!
For today’s gathering, which consisted of a group of young people, Melissa and Oliver wouldn't attend. She
patted Isla’s hand and gave her a warning look.
Isla clenched her fists, thinking of Melissa's disdainful and warning look when they left the house that morning,
and felt waves of shand anger!
What Melissa said was still ringing in her ears. “Marrying you was the worst thing that had happened to Jake! You
were taken away by the police last night, making the first branch of the family lose all its face! If you don’t
regain our honor today and give Lewis and his wife a piece of our mind, I'll have Jake divorce you!”
Isla bit her lip and followed Jake toward the direction of the parking lot.
Jake was indifferent to her all the way, his gaze firmly fixed on Keira, who was walking ahead, his expression
inscrutable.
After the groun arrived at the parking lot. Isla was

about to go to the car she shared with Jake when a bodyguard stopped her. “Mr. Horton has asked you to
see him.”
Isla was surprised and walked over to Keira and Lewis,
clueless.
Today, Keira was dressed in a white equestrian outfit, looking poised and graceful. The white attire
accentuated her tall, slender figure, making her look vibrant and commanding.
Lewis, on the other hand, hadn't changed his clothes
and was still in a black suit. His cool demeanor and
firm contours added a certain charisma to him.
Isla clenched her fists, her face smiling. “Uncle, did you need something from me?”
Lewis's narrow eyes fixed on her, the darkness of his gaze harboring feelings that were difficult for Isla to
decipher, making her feel intensely uncomfortable.
Then, she heard Lewis speak. “Since you have been disrespectful to your seniors on several occasions, it’s t|
taught you smanners. Now, open the car door for your aunt.”
Isla’s pupils constricted sharply at these words!

She looked incredulously at Lewis but saw no hint of jest on the man’s face.
Turning to look at Keira, she saw an expression of surprise as well.
Her last hope was to seek help from Jake, but he only
frowned and remained silent.
Isla clenched her fists.
A surge of intense humiliation welled up inside her.
How could this be....
Ever since they were young, Keira had always been her little slave. If she told Keira to go east, Keira wouldn't
dare go west... Keira had no dignity in front of her and had to keep her head lowered.
Isla was always high above, firmly pressing down on
her.
How dare that woman climb over her head now?!
Isla wanted nothing more than to tear Keira’s face apart, eat her flesh, and suck her blood!
But she dared not...
She could only forcefully suppress all her humiliation,

bow her head, walk to the side of the car, and barely squeeze out a few words through gritted teeth. “Aunt Keira,
please get in.”
Keira, with her gaze lowered, went straight into the car
and sat down.
Isla finally closed the door for her.
The car slowly started, leaving the angry Isla behind. Only then did Keira turn to look at Lewis and say, “Thank
you.”
She knew that when Isla spoke just now, Lewis must have heard her from upstairs, and that was why he had
deliberately humiliated Isla a moment ago-to restore Keira’s dignity.
Her gaze dropped as she said slowly, “Actually, she just learned to ride a horse and hadlead the horse for
her. Once she could gallop, she didn’t needanymore.”
After all, she couldn't run as fast as the horse...
She smiled, “I was quite envious of her riding at that time. Later...”
Before she could finish, Lewis took her hand, his tone
11:41
filled with indulgence. “If you think horse riding is fun, then I'll teach you today.”
Keira blinked, swallowing the rest of her words, and just curled her lips into a slight smile, “Okay.”
Lewis looked at her. “What's past is past. Whatever you envied her for before, I'll give to you from now on.”
Keira nodded earnestly.
They soon arrived at the equestrian field.
The Horton family had their own private parking area, and once they parked the car, Lewis and Keira got out.
They walked toward the changing room.
One needed to change into proper riding attire for horseback riding. Keira had already changed at the Horton's,

But Lewis needed to change.
So she simply loitered around the changing room area.
Isla and Jake had gotten out of the car and disappeared somewhere. Isla probably feared losing

face in front of so many people if Lewis, acting as an
elder, forced her to serve Keira again.
Which was just fine.
At least it intimidated her.
While Keira was lost in her thoughts, two people cby, chatting with each other.
“Have you heard? Speople from Clance will ctoday, and one of them isn’t someone to be messed
with!”
“We can’t mess with any of the young masters from Clance.”
“This one’s different... It's said to be from that family!”
The other person immediately lowered his voice. “The Olsen family from Clance?”
“Shh... keep it down. Even the Horton family in Oceanion will have to tread carefully around that person, right?
Who knows why they're coming today, but we need to serve them with caution! Not just Lewis, we mustn't
provoke that person either.”
“I'm not stupid. I'd rather offend the Horton family than that person...”

As they spoke, they walked past Keira.
Keira watched them go, pensive. Among those coming from Clance they mentioned, Frankie must be one of
them, right?
Just as she thought about this, she saw Frankie emerge from the changing room.
Wearing gold-rimmed glasses and clad in black riding gear, he looked trim and tall. Upon seeing Keira, Frankie
seemed slightly surprised and approached her.
“Miss Olsen, what a coincidence.”
The last tthey had met, they'd had an awkward moment due to Frankie mistaking Isla for her, but after a few
days, that awkwardness had dissipated.
Keira had a good relationship with Frankie's parents, and she was straightforward with Frankie. “Mrs. Allen asked
with me?”
Frankie thought of the face in the photos that resembled Keira and smiled, “Yes, it does.”
