Chapter 153: Stop Bragging
After Claire and Derek had that race the other day, Gerald had been spreading
the news about it in Ascalon, and now Derek had lost his name as the best
racer in Ascalon and no one challenged him anymore.
After all, he was only the second–best racer, what was the point of challenging him?
Just to compete for the title of the second–best?
There wasn’t much glory in it.
Kira knew that it was a humiliation and had been trying to get back, and yesterday she’d gotten word
that Claire would come with Sean to the stable today and she finally got the chance.
“Claire, how about we have another game today?”
Claire took Sean’s arm, her pretty brows furrowing gently, “Game?”
Kira shook the whip in her hand and smiled brightly, “We are here, of course,
a horse race!”
She had learned to ride horses since she was a child, and her horsemanship was one of the best in the
whole Ascalon, her trainer had said last month that she had improved again and could take part in
competitions now. She thought that since Claire grew up in a poor family, she might have never seen
horses before.
She would surely win!
“Horse race?”

Claire let out a faint chuckle and raised her hand to point at Julia, “We can compete. After you win my
assistant.”
“Her?”
Kira recognized Julia. Wasn’t she the reason Sean and Claire came to make a scene at the Summers
family the other day?
Whether at home or abroad, those who knew how to ride horses were all rich,
not even Claire could be rich enough to do that, let alone her assistant.
“That’s not very nice.” Kira snorted, “It will be unfair to her, won’t it?”
“Unfair?”
Julia gave a fake smile as she stepped forward and stood next to Claire, saying, “Stop bragging,
Missy.”
Sasha covered her mouth and laughed, after so many years of fighting with Kira she hadn’t seen

Kira.
She couldn’t win her at arguments, but she could win her at other things.
Seeing Julia refute Kira made her feel great!
Kira’s face turned livid, which was amusing.
“Okay! Let’s compete! But Claire, if I beat her, you’ll have to sell me that Npink crystal!”
Claire smiled, “Sell? I will give it to you for free if you win.”

Kira, who had thought she had a solid win, was uncertain all of a sudden.
Since the other day her cousin lost to Claire in that car race, she knew Claire would never fight a battle
she wasn’t sure of, since Claire dared to say that, it meant Julia must be pretty good at horsemanship.
Just as she was hesitating, Sasha sneered, “Kira, she has said she will give it to you for free if you win.
Don’t you dare?”
“Why wouldn’t I dare?”
Kira couldn’t be provoked, especially not in front of Sasha, she couldn’t allow herself to be humiliated.
She shook the whip in her hand and walked away confidently, “I’ll see you at the turf!”
Just as she left, Julia apprehensively grabbed Claire’s hand, “Claire, what if I lose? That pink crystal is
for my wedding!”
Claire inclined her head to look at her, “You will lose?”
Julia playfully laughed out, “I’m going to lose? Oh… Are you kidding?”
Claire laughed and nudged her shoulder, “Yeah, how could you possibly lose? Go on, I believe in you!”
Julia didn’t pick Sean’s Athena because Athena wasn’t familiar with her and was Sean’s personal horse
that hadn’t been ridden by anyone else but Sean, so it would be hard for someone else to get on her
back.
The owner of the stable showed Julia around the stable and the latter chose a horse with a better
temperament and physique, Julia knew at first glance that the horse was a good one. It had been
trained and she could tell just by looking at his hooves that he was a fast runner.

Julia rode in a fairly standard position and looked at ease with one hand on the rope and the whip in
the other.
Kira was kinda surprised, Julia obviously looked like a professional rider!
She gritted her teeth and chose to compete with Julia in what she was best at, “Let’s play a simple
game, whoever gets through these obstacles in a
shorter time wins!”
“No problem.” Julia took the whip and flicked it, still quite poised, “You should go first.”
Go first?
What the hell was she talking about?
Kira frowned and was displeased.
“Fine, since you have said so, I will go first!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKira mounted on her horse, gave a gallant shake of the whip and her horse
started off.
She jumped over the first short fence with ease and then the second, one higher than the previous one,
but she jumped over them all effortlessly, and
without stopping, she ran towards the front.
Julia looked dismissive of Kira’s horsemanship.
The lap took Kira nine and a half minutes and she came back, looking proud and holding the whip, “I’m
done, it’s your turn now.”

She really knew how to provoke her opponent!
Julia held the rope with one hand and tilted her head in contempt, “That’s
it?”
Kira’s face instantly turned livid, “What do you mean?”
Julia laughed out loud as she sat on her horse, “That’s all you got? How dare you ask to compete with
Claire in horsemanship? You can ride a horse, but
that’s all.”
Kira’s horsemanship was well–known in Ascalon, but she was laughed at by Julia She was so furious
that her face turned red, raising the whip in her hand
and pointing it angrily at Julia, she shouted, “You are just bragging! You think you can run faster than I
did?”
“Huh…”
Julia gave her a mocking snort, the whip in her hand raised high, “Then I will show you today what is
true horsemanship!”
As soon as she finished, she shook the horsewhip in her hand and hit the horse’s buttocks, and the
horse howled, lifting its hooves and running away.
Kira froze for a moment before sneering, “Dumbass! This isn’t in the grasslands, you think you can
gallop your horse? You’ll get points deduction for knocking down the roadblocks!”
Before she could finish her words, Julia yanked on the rope, took a beautiful Jeap and jumped perfectly
over the first short fence, barely taking a break in between, after she landed, she took another leap,
easily over the second
fence.
