My Reborn Admirer Wins Over My Heart novel Chapter 218

## Chapter 218 A Deal Beneath the Mask

The classmates, buzzing with excitement, took turns capturing the beauty of the exquisite Juliet rose through their cameras. Each click of the shutter echoed the thrill of the moment, a fleeting chance to immortalize something so rare. As the time for admiration dwindled, the specialists, clad in their formal attire, handled the rose with utmost care, gently repackaging it before leading it back to the helicopter, their movements precise and respectful.

With the rose safely secured, one of the suited professionals gave Oriana a nod of acknowledgment, a silent gesture that conveyed respect, before he slipped away into the distance.

Weston, accompanied by Emma, made his departure, while Kai, who had another commitment awaiting him, bid his farewells as well. The ranch, once bustling with the energy of the event, was now left in the hands of the classmates, who were ready to dive into their next round of festivities.

With the grand spectacle behind them, the classmates quickly shifted their focus to the enticing activities of grilling and horseback riding. The ranch, known for its stunning array of horses, boasted some of the finest specimens in all of Seabar. It was a privilege to be here; on any ordinary day, the gates remained firmly shut to those without a membership.

Seizing the opportunity, the group decided it would be a shame not to take advantage of the chance to ride. Luna, ever the hostess, swiftly adjusted her demeanor, brushing off any remnants of earlier tensions, and returned to her role with renewed vigor, ensuring her guests felt welcomed and entertained.

In her eagerness, she arranged for professional trainers to guide those classmates who were unfamiliar with riding, leading them around the field for a few laps. As they began to enjoy the experience, Oriana found herself withdrawing into her thoughts, and the classmates who were benefiting from Luna’s efforts began to shower her with compliments, sending her confidence soaring.

Meanwhile, Oriana had already reached out to Micah, informing him of the beautiful gift she had received. His response was quick, a voice message that resonated with sincerity. “I still feel like I haven’t done enough,” he said, his tone laced with humility.

A smile crept onto Oriana’s lips as she crafted her reply, sending back a voice message filled with playful teasing. “Mr. Caldwell, are you trying to make the rest of the men look bad?”

His reply was both thoughtful and introspective. “I’m only competing with who I was yesterday—so I can give you the best version of me tomorrow.”

Oriana felt a rush of emotions, her heart pounding in her chest, momentarily lost for words. Where had he learned to express himself so eloquently?

Nearby, Zara’s stomach growled audibly, breaking the moment of contemplation. She was hard at work by the grill, the tantalizing aroma of grilled meat wafting through the air. Every so often, she would cast a sideways glance at Luna, shaking her head in disbelief. “Luna’s got nerves of steel. Seriously, most people could never fake it that well,” she remarked, her voice tinged with admiration.

Oriana looked up, nodding in agreement. “Yeah, when it comes to mental strength, she’s impressive,” she replied, her thoughts still lingering on Micah’s words.

Zara smirked, her humor shining through. “She’s like a cockroach—you just can’t get rid of her.”

Oriana chuckled softly at the comparison, unable to suppress her amusement.

Zara, sensing the shift in mood, handed Oriana a freshly grilled pork skewer, gesturing with her chin toward the riding area. “Not gonna ride a lap? Don’t forget—you were Seabar’s youth riding champion back in the day.”
