172 It Won’t

Ellis was stunned.

It had to be an illusion!

The horse was still galloping but the speed at which the scenery on both sides was receding was indeed slowing down…

He looked at the girl sitting in front of him in astonishment.

Keira was bending over, still stroking the horse’s head and body. She was still whispering something,

seemingly comforting the horse.

Chasing Wind had also caught up with them. It

gradually slowed down, leading their horse to a stop.

Keira finally sighed in relief.

And Ellis was already dumbfounded, looking at Keira in

disbelief.

She actually managed to do it?!

How could this be…

Caught in his amazement, Lewis and several other

security personnel came galloping over on horseback, surrounding them and were immediately stunned by

the scene.

Lewis’s gaze immediately fell on Keira, and upon seeing that she had no visible injuries, he finally relaxed.

Then his cold eyes fell on Ellis’s hands had on Keira’s shoulder, and if looks could kill, Ellis’s paw would have been butchered a thousand times over by now!

He rode forward and coughed. “Ellis, haven’t you had enough riding? Are you not afraid the horse will get spooked again?”

Only then did Ellis snap back to reality and immediately dismounted.

Lewis then looked toward Keira. “Keira, you…”

“I’m fine.” Keira didn’t dismount but continued to gently pat the horse’s head, soothing its emotions.

Someone couldn’t help but ask, “Mrs. Horton, was it you who calmed the horse down?”

Another person chimed in. “The horse was in such a bad state just now, and it got calmed down like that?”

“No, that can’t be possible, right? Under that condition, even a professional horse trainer might not be able to manage it… There have been several cases like this, ending in both human and horse deaths…”

“A similar situation occurred in Oceanion before, but at that time, it was resolved by that impressive, mysterious horse trainer…”

“The horse trainer? Mrs. Horton, you’re not saying that

you are…?”

Everyone gasped.

Lewis’s eyes widened.
