Chapter 49: Chapter 50

Jensen froze and looked at Gilda seriously, without saying anything.

85% 12:08 Gilda was beautiful and changeable. Jensen couldn’t guess her thoughts at all. Her question was more like a trap. One step closer would lead him into the abyss.

Jensen was not sure whether he still had feelings for Gilda, but he knew that he did regret ending the marriage too soon.

Gilda lowered her eyes and smiled, saying coldly, “Oh! It was my mistake. How could a hard–hearted person like Mr. Harrington be affected by the insignificant past?”

She continued, “As a businessman, the most important thing is profit. I don’t need to remind you of this.

Mr. Harrington, you should know it better than me.”

“What exactly do you want to say?” Jensen asked.

Jensen’s face was gloomy and his voice sounded cold, which made people feel oppressive.

Gilda pretended to be unaware of his oppression and said, “Since Mr. Harrington didn’t refuse to cooperate with Glory Corporation because of our old relationship, you only need a reason to force me to give up.

“How about having a horse race with me?” asked Gilda.

A strand of hair hung down her cheek, and Gilda’s eyes were full of confidence. “If you win, Glory Corporation will not mention the cooperation again. If I win, Harrington Corporation has to agree to our participation,” said Gilda.

Jensen had received professional equestrian training and was no worse than the professionals, but Gilda was confident that she would win today.

Timothy seemed to have no position to support any of them, but his preference was very obvious in his words. “Ms. Lynch is very sincere, and I am impressed by her horse–riding skills. I am wondering whether Mr. Harrington has confidence in his equestrianism.”

Hearing this, Jensen frowned slightly and looked at Gilda with gloomy eyes. “Why should I compete with you?” he asked Gilda.

Gilda shrugged and said indifferently, “Fine. I’ll tell the people in Allath after I leave’that you’re a coward who is afraid of his ex–wife.”

Gilda was straightforward. If Jensen could turn a deaf ear to all those provocative words, then he would not be Jensen.

So Jensen said coldly, “Deal.”

Gilda smiled brightly and said, “Okay.”

Timothy looked down from the spectator stand. Gilda and Jensen rode to the starting position together.

Gilda selected the same chestnut warmblood horse, securing her feet firmly in the stirrups as she positioned herself at the starting line.

Then Gilda looked sideways at Jensen and smiled brightly under the helmet. “Mr. Harrington, are you ready?” she asked.

She didn’t expect that she could compete with Jensen at the racecourse after divorce for such an important event. Gilda was as excited as the horses who were about to start the race.

Gilda was determined to beat Jensen, crushing his arrogance like what he did to her in their marriage.

Jensen remembered Gilda’s brilliant smile at a glance, which was something he had never seen before. He narrowed his eyes slightly and was lost in thought.

At this time, the whistle sounded and Gilda’s horse set off half a step ahead.

Jensen came back to his senses and rode his horse to catch up.

On the track, Gilda and Jensen rode their horses one after the other, drawing attention from onlookers who were captivated by the showdown between the striking man and woman. Almost everyone stopped to watch the spectacle.

Gilda’s horse took the lead on the first lap and galloped along.

Jensen’s horse turned after Gilda, passing her one step on the second lap.

Jensen’s cold and focused face made some girls scream in a low voice. His muscle faintly appeared under his shirt when he grasped the rope.

As they approached the third lap, they remained neck and neck. Jensen’s horse held a slight lead, causing unease among the spectators in the stands.
