The trainer threw the lead aside and cleaned the dust off the brown horse with a bristle brush.
The brown horse suddenly moved violently and panted when he touched its neck.
It even stomped its hooves repeatedly as if it was feeling very uncomfortable.
The trainer felt very strange.
He took a close look and found out that there was a faint scar under its neck, and it was still bleeding.
The hair under its neck had a darker shade of brown.
The scar was right under the lead, so he did not notice it.
He frowned and examined the scar.
It looked like a cut, but he could not be sure because the lead mangled up after the flesh around the scar.
He could not really see what the scar looked like initially.
He finally figured out why the horse became more uncontrollable when Keegan pulled the lead.
The pain felt worse for the horse whenever Keegan pulled, so it became more restless.
He had no idea where the scar came from.
He told Baldwin about its injury so that he could get a vet to treat it.
After all, Cordelia liked the brown horse very much.
Stella dragged Marshall out of the horse farm and left the manor.
Her face looked very tense, and Marshall just followed her without saying anything.
Both got into the car after leaving the manor.
Then, Marshall said, "We should've at least told Mrs.Kane about it.Stella started the car as she said, Keegan has a mouth.He'll take care of it."
Marshall pursed his lips.
After that, he said in a low voice, Are you worried about Keegan?"
"What?"
Stella said flatly, "I'm not related to him anymore.I'm just mad at him for being so inappropriate.I'm glad that you weren't hurt."
Marshall's eyes relaxed as he said gently, "It's just a scratch.I'll be fine.You can't blame Keegan entirely, as I agreed to race with him too."
"You don't have to defend him.He's already so old, yet so childish! it] Stella did not want to talk about Keegan anymore, or she would remind herself about how he fell from the horse just now.Instead, she shifted the topic and began discussing the lawsuit with Marshall.
Then, the car arrived at the nearest clinic shortly after.
Stella sent him back to the law firm after his wound was taken care of.
She gazed downward and saw dust on her shoes after leaving the law firm.
Her shoes got dirty because she fell when Keegan jumped from Juno to the brown horse.
She squatted down and wiped her shoes with a tissue.
Then, she thought of Keegan again.She felt very irritated.
Suddenly, her phone rang.She reached for a phone and saw an unknown number calling her.She picked it up.
"Hello."
A hoarse man's voice could be heard on the phone.
"Is this Miss Stella Jewell?"
That man's voice sounded very strange, and it was not someone Stella knew.So she did not answer his question.
Instead, she asked, "who's calling?"
"Did you send me an email a few days ago?"
‘Email?! Stella paused before she remembered what she had done.
"Are you Detective Karl?"
"Yeah, and I've read your email.Do you have time today? Why don't we meet in person to discuss it in detail?"
Stella immediately replied, "Of course."
A hoarse man's voice could be heard on the phone.
