Seeing her bright smile, Griffon felt the dull pain that had been looming in his heart since the night before had suddenly dissipated a lot. He took her hand and led her to the changing room. After personally helping her change into horse riding clothes, he turned around and ordered someone to fetch his own exclusive clothes. Taya, who was waiting outside the door, leaned on the railing and kicked the stones on the ground out of boredom when the door behind her slowly opened. He emerged facing the sun with a face as cold as snow. He was wearing a pair of black sungla*ses, which made his facial features even more well-defined.
He had perfect body proportions, with white, body-hugging clothes on his torso and a black belt tightly wrapped around his toned waist. His lower body was dressed in white breeches, and his thighs are outlined to make them taller. Below the knees, there were a pair of black high-riding boots. The man held a helmet in one hand, turning his head slightly against the glow. Colorful, barely visible rays of light followed the direction of his tilted head, and reflected on the sungla*ses. With a cold aura around him, he looked like a nobleman straight out of a painting. He walked up to Taya, raised his fingers, and put on the helmet in his hand for Taya. With every gesture, he was flaunting his inherent nobility and elegance… Taya was a little dazed to see him like that, but he didn’t care at all. He took her hand and led her to pick a horse. He chose an extremely docile pony for Taya, helped her get on it, then led the horse by the reins to circle around the infield.
Taya looked down at the man who carefully taught her how to ride a horse. A faint smile gradually appeared in her gaze. “I probably won’t be able to get a hang of it quite yet. Why don’t you go and accompany your friends?” she suggested. He was leading a pony that wasn’t even as tall as him, and it looked quite funny. The nobles galloping on their horses in the distance laughed at him when they saw it. Taya felt that if she let him lead her around in circles again, he might get teased to death by his friends. Thus, she asked him to go hang out with them. Griffon glanced at the group of men who were pulling their reins and pointing at him, then turned to Taya and said, “Wait here for me, then.” He didn’t want to go horse riding. He just wanted those ignorant guys to stop laughing. He carried Taya off the horse, told a group of bodyguards to guard her, then turned and got on a tall white horse. He grabbed the reins and quickly rode toward the distant arena where he could gallop freely… Looking at the tall and straight figure sitting on the horse’s back, Taya grinned slightly. Sure enough, those aristocrats’ horse-riding skills were nothing compared to Griffon!. She was sitting in the rest area, watching Griffon teach his friends a “serious lesson” when an elegant figure suddenly appeared in front of her. “Long time no see, Taya.” The woman who was also wearing a white horse riding outfit, had her hands behind her back.
She looked down at Taya in a condescending manner. Hearing this familiar voice, Taya raised her head to glance at the woman blocking her view. Upon seeing that it was Jessica, her expression soured slightly. Jessica ignored the subtle changes on her face and sat down right next to her, staring at Griffon in the distance with an infatuated look in her eyes. “You know, when I was in college, I immediately fell in love with him when I saw him riding a horse…” she confessed. Taya’s eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she didn’t want to hear Jessica’s description of that long-gone past. Regardless, Jessica kept talking. “At the time, Griffon agreed to participate in the competition to help the medical faculty,” she elaborated. “As soon as it was his turn, he amazed all the medical students, especially me. Since then, I’ve loved him so much that I can’t let go.” “However, he’s so indifferent and aloof. Almost none of the girls dared to approach him, nor would he allow them to…” At that point, she paused for a moment, then turned her head to look at Taya with puzzled eyes. She looked her up and down. “You’re beautiful, but I don’t think I’m bad, either. Why does he give you such special treatment when he won’t even look at me?” she wondered aloud. Earlier, Jessica had watched Griffon help Taya put on the helmet.
His gentle and nostalgic actions made Jessica envious. and jealous at the same time. She and Taya were equally pretty, and even her background and academic qualifications were much better than that of Taya. Even so, Griffon just didn’t like her, and instead fell in love with Taya who was nothing compared to her. It was unbelievable. Taya glanced at the confident and calm Jessica before softly replying, “You’ll have to ask him yourself.”” Taya didn’t know why Griffon fell in love with her at first sight either, so she couldn’t answer Jessica’s question. However, Jessica took that as a provocation, and her pretty face darkened in an instant. “Where do you get that sense of superiority from, Taya?” Taya frowned with a puzzled look on her face and asked her: “Well, since you’re asking, Dr. Simmons, I’ll answer you truthfully. What does this have to do with a sense of superiority?” Jessica pursed her lips slightly and snorted coldly. “You only have the guts to put on airs in front of me because you have Griffon backing you up.” Taya felt like it was pointless trying to communicate with Jessica, so she pursed her red lips and stopped replying to her. Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Jessica thought it was a sign of Taya’s submission. A hint of disdain appeared on her haughty face. Despite that, she continued to act superior as she questioned Taya, “Did he propose to you, Taya?” When Taya heard that, she subconsciously lowered her slightly curled eyelashes. She stared at the black riding boots and remained silent. Jessica could see through her at a glance. “I knew it. How could he propose to you so easily?” She seemed to relax all over as she leaned back on the bench, and folded her arms over her chest.
She raised her chin and gave Taya a warning. “As your former doctor, I would like to give you a quick reminder. Don’t think that he’ll marry you just because he’s treating you like you’re special right now,” she thundered. “Noble sons like him usually get mated to young ladies from aristocratic packs. the Knight pack will definitely look down on someone with your status.” She continued, “So, you have to accept reality. He’s nice to you now, but he’s just playing with you. When he gets tired of you, he’ll dump you without any hesitation.” “A woman in her thirties won’t be able to entertain a man for long. Don’t waste your time and effort with a man who won’t mate you.” When Taya heard those harsh words, she was even more embarra*sed, especially since she already felt inferior. She clenched her hands tightly. With clear and bright eyes, she looked away from the riding track and looked at Jessica beside her. “Let me give you a reminder as well, Dr. Simmons. You have liked Griffon since you were in college, but he has no interest in you. You’ve wasted more than ten years of your youth fighting for a man who’s never loved you. What’s the point?” she fired back. Jessica’s face froze after getting slapped in the face like that. Just as she was about to refute, Taya spoke again. “There’s one more thing that you’re wrong about.
There are many people like me in the world, and many wealthy packs started out the way I did. How do you know that I won’t become rich with my own power in the future?” she added. When Taya said the last sentence, the firm determination and confidence in her eyes showed a sense of tranquility that even Jessica didn’t possess. She had lived an insecure life since she was a pup. However, with the help of Rosalie’s heart and identity, she was granted another chance at life. How could she submit to fate so easily? Jessica, who had always boasted about being untouchable, looked at the woman in front of her who seemed to have been completely reborn. She could barely recognize her as the woman who was lying on the hospital bed two months ago. Jessica marveled at her changes but felt that her confidence was entirely due to Griffon, so she didn’t take Taya seriously. She picked up her helmet, stood up, and said disdainfully, “I bet he will never mate you. Let’s wait and see.”
