Chapter 159 Who Gives You This Pinky Ring?
Firefly continued to clip-clop on the spot, humming in anger.
“Not satisfied?” Lincoln’s face was sullen.
Firefly instantly lowered his head and even gently touched Lincoln with his head, as if he was replying, “Yes!”
Zayla saw Firefly, like a lackey, trying to please Lincoln. She could not help but laugh.
She wondered why the horse was so loyal to Lincoln.
Then, Lincoln stepped on the stirrup and sat directly behind Zayla.
His chest was only a few inches away from her back, and they were too close.
Zayla wanted to lean forward, but Lincoln had held her hand as well as the reins in her
hand.
“Sit tight. I’ll take you to familiarize yourself with the route first.”
He did not give Zayla a chance to dismount or to speak.
Lincoln lightly clamped the horse’s belly, and Firefly slowly walked forward….
TheOne Horse Ranch was world-class, and it naturally could accommodate a horse-racing competition.
This activity in upper-class society was very simple. There was no fancy display of skills.
People would win as long as they were fast enough, and the racetrack had been prepared.
The racetrack was 0.6 miles long. If a horse galloped, it would only take one or two minutes.
But if one rode the horse slowly like this, it would take so long…
After all, Lincoln and Zayla were so close to each other.
“Mr. Nash, I’m almost familiar with the racetrack. You can speed up and run to the finish line.”
This way, Zayla thought it could end early…
“Firefly has been weak for the past two days. He can’t run.” Lincoln gave the simplest
reason.
Zayla got stunned.
So did Firefly.
For a fine horse, he felt humiliated when he was unable to gallop.
But Firefly had no choice because his master made it act weak.
It gradually became quiet.
The sun shone in the sky.
And Zayla’s pinky ring was glowing.
“This ring is very unique.”
Lincoln looked at her pinky ring, curled his lips, and asked, “That brat Simon gave it to you?”
That brat?
Zayla was surprised by Lincoln’s words.
“But he can’t remember.” Zayla nodded.
“His brain is quite useful. He won’t forget.”
“Really?” Zayla looked at the pinky ring and wore a bitter smile. “But that was already
when I was young.”
“Go ahead?
“I want to know more about him.”
When Zayla heard Lincoln’s words, she looked down at the pinky ring and thought there
was nothing to hide..
At the age of six, when Zayla was playing at her grandfather’s house, she accidentally
fell into the fountain.
Then, a little boy, Simon, jumped into the cold water without hesitation in the middle of winter and saved her immediately.
She only swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and was fine.
Later, Simon crawled out of the fountain wet and gave her the ring.
He said, “I hope you will be happy and safe forever.”
Later, Zayla grew up.
This ring could only be worn on Zayla’s pinky finger…
However, Simon, who gave her the ring, had completely forgotten about her.
Zayla stared at the pinky ring and chuckled.
When Zayla thought of that promise, she felt bitter.
Happy and safe forever?
In the past, Zayla had thought that it would definitely be the case after marrying Simon.
After all, Simon promised it…
Later on, even a little bit of happiness had become an expectation.
However, this pinky ring had saved her twice.
The first time was at the University of Houston, and the second time was at Mist
Mountain.
She was safe and sound on both occasions.
Since it was hard to be happy, it was good enough to be safe.
After he listened to this story, Lincoln’s face turned a little gloomy, and he was serious and cold.
