His Unveiled Passion novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37

The smile on Jacqueline’s face vanished altogether, replaced by a cold, detached expression. She softly replied, “It’s alright.”

Tessa didn’t pay much attention to jacqueline’s sudden shift in attitude.

After all, they weren’t close to begin with. In fact, this demeanor felt more natural than the overly forced friendliness from before.

Tess began to explain the basics of horseback riding to Jacqueline. “For beginners, posture is very important. Once you’re on the horse, sit upright in the saddle and keep your body straight.”

“Try holding the reins,” Tessa continued. She handed the reins over to Jacqueline.

“When you want the house to move forward, don’t pull the reins back too hard. Instead, loosen the terston to reduce pressure on the horse. That way, it’ll walk forward at a slow pace”

Jacqueline followed Tessa’s instructions. She held the reins gently without any harsh pulls. Snowflake walked forward obediently at a gentle pace.

“He’s called Snowflake and is very gentle. There’s no need to be afraid, “Tessa assured jacqueline.

“Is that so?” Jacqueline’s tone was strange, devoid of any warmth.

Tessa replied, “Don’t worry. Nothing will go wrong while I’m here.”

Jacqueline’s lips curled faintly, and her expression was unreadable. “Well, I suppose I’ll have to thank you for that.”

Tessa continued, “If you want the horse to speed up, try gently pressing your legs against its sides. That light pressure signals the horse to go faster.” “Usually, the more pressure you apply, the faster it’ll go.

After she finished her explanation, Tessa glanced at Jacqueline thoughtfully. “Did you catch all of that?”

“I got it,” Jacqueline replied.

As they continued riding, the distance between them and their starting positions grew

Jacqueline glanced back and saw that Stephen was no longer within sight. While Tessa carned on explaining the basics, Jacqueline’s attention seemed elsewhere. Jacqueline had discreetly tucked away a brooch in her right hand that held the reins. She had deliberately removed the brouch and hid it just moments ago. Tessa remained completely unaware. “How do you feel after walking this far? isn’t riding a horse exhilarating?” she asked with a smile.

“It’s alright,” Jacqueline replied with an Indifferent tone.

What was happening? How could Snowflake, normally so calm and gentle, suddenly lose control?

The chaos unfolded in a matter of seconds. Tessa had no chance to grab the reins.

Tessa’s mind went blank for a moment before she snapped back to reality. She immediately called the equestrian center’s emergency rescue team After being carried along a a good distance by Snowflake, Jacqueline finally fell to the ground. She rolled several yards away before she stopped.

The horse remained out of control. It continued to dash around frantically.

The rescue team arrived swiftly, lifting Jacqueline onto a streicher,

Stephen and the others rusted over imediately to check on the situation.

Stephen’s brows furrowed deeply when he saw Jacqueline’s injured tonn. He glanced at Tessa with a somber gaze.

¿Tessa stood frozen in place when she met his gaze. Her eyes were wide with shock and contusion
