Chapter 41 Just Give Up

Brenna picked a new horse, one that had never competed before. It was a sleek bay horse, though not as docile

as Ethan's

"T'll choose this one," Brenna said.

The attendant smiled and led the horse out for her. "You've got a good eye. Champion horses are more reliable, but new ones have untapped potential. Best of luck!"

As Brenna guided the horse outside, the roar of the crowd hit her. The cheers swelled, growing louder with each lap.

She turned toward the racetrack. A rider on a striking white horse surged ahead, leaving the others behind

The rider, a foreigner, moved with perfect balance as the horse sped past Brenna.

He was Alex.

"Whoa, Alex!" Isabella shrieked while waving her arms wildly. "Jordy, he's my absolute favorite rider! I can't believe I'm competing alongside him today. What an honor!" She bounced on her toes, barely able to contain

her excitement.

Brenna shot her a look of contempt

The crowd was electric. It wasn't just Isabella. Alex had a legion of fans.

People were on their feet, screaming and waving Orwall flags.

Alex's image lit up the massive electronic screens around the venue. Moments later, the updated race rankings flashed across them, sending the crowd into an even bigger frenzy.

In just minutes, Alex had secured first place in the ninth group without breaking a sweat. If he won the finals, he'd be the day's champion.

As soon as the race ended, a wave of people rushed to place bets on Alex. His popularity was at an all-time
