When Alexander and Stephen rode over, Scarlett and Raymond had ridden two laps.
Scarlett glanced at the two of them. "Long tno see, Mr. Smith and Mr. James." Stephen nodded. "Long tno see." "It's been a long time! Scarlett, why do you look even more beautiful?" Just as Alexander said this, he felt a chill down his spine.
He tilted his head, finding Raymond looking at him coldly.
Alexander smiled awkwardly. "Raymond, don't misunderstand. I'm just complimenting Scarlett." Raymond didn't bother to pay attention to Alexander. Raymond glanced at Stephen with a nod.

Alexander remembered what happened last night. He didn't know how to ask for Scarlett's mercy. Alexander suddenly had an idea. He thought if he could defeat Scarlett today, then Shaylee's matter would be solved easily.
Alexander was proud of his cleverness. Ordinary people couldn't think of this.
He was confident about his horsemanship. Even though he couldn't defeat Scarlett at golf, he believed that he wouldn't lose to Scarlett at riding.
Scarlett didn’t expect that Alexander would take the initiative. She agreed to play with Alexander today because she intended to talk about something with him. Yet it was a bit embarrassing to mention that. She feared that Alexander would think she asked for too much. Therefore, Scarlett wanted to race with him.
Now that Alexander asked her, she wouldn't stand on ceremony. "Not bad, but I've only ridden twice. | should not be able to beat you." Hearing this, Alexander was overjoyed. " Don't be modest. How about having a match with me? Stephen and the others met Scarlett several times. They all knew that Scarlett was not as simple as she seemed.
Scarlett said that out of modesty, but Alexander was too foolish to understand.
Stephen wanted to warn Alexander. Yet after hearing what Alexander just said, Stephen didn't even bother to say anything.
Alexander was tricked by Scarlett last time, but he cto her again. He was just asking for trouble.
Scarlett smiled. "What about the rules?" "Well, isn't there a race track near us? We'll go there later. Let Raymond and Stephen be the judges. We'll ride one lap. The starting line is the finishing line, okay?" The stable had a place for people to race. To make it more challenging, there were shurdles on the track.
Of course, the hurdles were not high. If one learned to ride and was not timid, they could leap over them.

"It's just a race, Raymond, you won't have any problem with that, right?" Raymond looked at Alexander. "I didn’t say no." Scarlett held back her laughter. "Then let's go." "Hey, wait! Since we are racing, why don't we make a bet to add fun?" Scarlett smiled at Alexander. "You're right. Then what's your bet?" "Well, if I lose, I'll do something for you. If not, you'll do something for me." Scarlett instantly guessed Alexander's intention. He wanted to help Shaylee. Scarlett didn't mind letting Shaylee go.
Anyway, Shaylee would shoot herself in the foot.
"Okay." Scarlett raised her eyebrows, winking at Raymond slyly.
Raymond stared at her affectionately. He didn't say anything to help Alexander.
Stephen couldn't bear to see it. Alexander was proudly leading everyone to the race track.
They rode over. Scarlett reined her horse and looked back at Alexander. He was following her. "Mr. Smith, how about two out of three?" Alexander's heart jumped as he heard this. He remembered the last the was trapped by Scarlett. He was alerted. "No.
I'm a little tired. Let's just have one game." Stephen said coldly, "You're so weak." "Don't talk nonsense, Stephen! I'm tired because | worked late last night!" Scarlett smiled. "I understand." Alexander looked at the smile on Scarlett's face. "Scarlett, you think too much."
