Johanna’s eyes went wide as saucers when she saw Hannah practically flying in the distance. How could this be?
Well, so what? She was sure that Hannah would tire soon enough and eventually lose.
Unfortunately for her, that was not to be. There was a clear difference between Hannah’s performance and that of the other three, and she won the round without breaking her initial speed.
Trent leaned back in his seat and grinned.
“See?” He raised his eyebrows at Keith.
“I told you, I am well-prepared.”
“Don’t get too complacent. We still have another round.”
When it came to the fourth group’s race, Johanna secured the win, much like she had predicted.
She guided her horse off the track and headed toward Hannah, eager to flaunt her victory.
“Did you see that? Those other competitors are rather formidable, yet I still came out on top. Take my friendly advice and drop out of the race while it’s early.”
Hannah looked up from brushing her horse’s mane.
“Do you keep pestering me to back out of the race because you know that you can’t actually win against me? That must be it, right?”
Johanna flushed, her main purpose having been exposed. She tried to play it cool by scoffing and rolling her eyes.
“Of course not! Just wait and see! You’re definitely going to lose She jumped off her horse and angrily stomped into the grandstand.
Hannah, on the other hand, finished brushing her horse and rested in the waiting area without making any fuss.
Edwin, ever the loyal follower, immediately appeared beside her with a bottle of sports drink.

“Here, Hannah. Drink this!”
“Thanks.” Hannah unscrewed the cap and took a sip.
“Say, Hannah, that Johanna is definitely scheming something. How about letting me take your place? I’m worried that she would resort to dirty tricks again.”
Hannah put the drink aside and wiped her mouth.
“There are so many people watching the race from every corner. I doubt she would dare to play dirty in plain view of a crowd.”
“I guess you’re right,” Edwin mumbled with a frown.
“I’m just worried, I guess. You still haven’t taught her a lesson for cutting your dress up last time.”
