Chapter 1098
Nicole did not give him a forthcoming answer and rode off into the distance on her horse.
Galloping her way forward, she drifted into cloud nine and her troubles just seemed to vanish, as she basked in the wondrous scenery with its vast swathes of greenery all around.
"Hey, wait up!"
Carl shouted and attempted to catch up, but to no avail.He could only watch as Nicole's silhouette shrunk into the horizon.
As Jared came out of the stable atop his mount, Sirocco, he noticed that Nicole and Carl had vanished.
He took out his phone out and attempted to call them, but each time he did, he was met with a voice asking him to send them a voicemail instead.
‘They must be so busy riding that they couldn't hear their phones ringing" he thought to himself.
Seeing this, he decided that he would ride off to the direction that the duo had taken earlier, but just as he was about to do so, he heard a scream; it was Fiorella, who was having trouble maintaining her balance atop her horse.
"Mr.Johnston! I'm scared!"
Jared turned around and looked at her, "Why did you come here all by yourself? Where's your instructor?"
"My instructor was busy!"
Fiorella yelled and rode toward Jared.
"Please, wait for me!"
Jared was anxious, as he had little to no clue of Nicole's whereabouts, but with Fiorella already behind him, he could not turn a blind eye to her, or else, there would be nobody around to aid her if something catastrophic occurs.
"Grasp the reins," he instructed.
"Keep your feet on the stirrups.Don't pull on the reins too tightly, or the horse will stop."
Jared was forced to accompany Fiorella and teach her some basics.
It took her a while to get the hang of it.She was riding her horse at a snail's pace and would often scream from time to time, evoking Jared's attention and concern.
"Mr.Johnston, why is my horse spinning around in circles?!" she cried out while feeling dizzy.
"Please, come and help me out!"
"Loosen the reins on the left side.Make sure you balance your grip on both sides so that your horse won't trot around in circles." Jared said as he stifled his urge to laugh at her.
"How far have they gone that it is taking them so long to make their way back here?"
Jared murmured while gazing off into the distance.
Fiorella caught up to Jared and beamed at him.
"Mr.Johnston, what are you looking at? By the way, where is Miss Riddle and that friend of hers? Didn't you say that we were going to ride horses together? Where did the both of them go?"
"Have you gotten the hang of it?" Jared asked, his eyes still fixed at the yonder where Nicole and Carl had wandered off to.
Realizing that Jared was after Nicole, she screamed and was about to fall off the horse's back when Jared whirled around and grabbed her.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine.I think I'm starting to get the hang of it now.If you wish to go ahead and search for Miss Riddle, I'll come along," Fiorella said, knowing that Jared would neither leave her here, nor allow her to come along with him.
Jared looked at her and said, "No.Forget it.I'll stay here and watch over you as you practice.Judging by your skills, you are definitely not ready to gallop off at full speed."
Then, he sighed and gazed off into the distance once more.
"Thank you for coaching me, Mr.Johnston." She beamed.
"I really appreciate it."
‘It was Fiorella Fisher" he thought.
'If it was anyone else, I would not have given a damn"
"Come, I'll teach you how to trot forward slowly," he offered.
Although she would not be able to perform a full speed gallop, he could gradually teach her along the way.
Perhaps, they would even be able to catch a glimpse of Nicole by then.
Jared then took Fiorella out on a ride.
It did not matter how far they went, as Fiorella only cared about the fact that he was by her side.Her eyes were fixed on him the entire time.
"What are you looking at?"
Jared whirled around just in time to catch sight of the amorous look on her face, which startled him
