Chapter 78

Marissa caught a glimpse of Dominick's increasingly grim expression from the corner of her eye and felt secretly delighted. On the surface, however, she maintained a soft demeanor and said to Alexis, "Maybe Nathaniel genuinely wants to learn horseback riding?"

Alexis snorted, "What are you even talking about? Who are we kidding? We only do this stuff to pass the time and socialize. Just dabbling in it is enough. Nathaniel, that troublemaker? He's been messing around his whole life. Since when does he suddenly care about horseback riding?"

She paused, her gaze growing even more disdainful as it landed on Paisley. "Who's to say that woman isn't just trying to latch onto someone rich, all while pretending to play hard-to-get?"

Marissa quickly covered her mouth, feigning shock, and chimed in, "You can't just go around saying things like that." Though her words were aimed at Alexis, her eyes remained fixed on Dominick.

Alexis, being the kind of person who doubled down when questioned, retorted, "Oh, come on now. I may not know that equestrian champion well, but I sure as hell know Nathaniel."

And, of course, the others standing around knew Nathaniel as well. They'd all been high school

classmates, after all. Back then, aside from Marissa, Nathaniel had flirted with just about every campus queen. With his long history of questionable behavior, Alexis' claim held some weight.

Marissa blinked her large, clear eyes and looked at Dominick with an expression of innocent confusion. "Is that really true?"

"It absolutely is," Alexis declared confidently. She pointed toward a spot in the distance and said, "Don't believe me? Look over there. Just look at how close their faces are when they're talking."
