Seth, dressed in plain white clothes, appeared in the middle of the street. Seeing Layla standing at the door of Jason and Esme's room, she was a little curious.
“Are you looking for Esme?” Seth asked as he walked.
“No.” Layla shook her head.
“Then, are you looking for Jason?”
“Not really.” Layla kept shaking her head. Under the glowing white light, his face looked somewhat pale.
Seth stood in front of him. His eyes stared curiously. “Not looking for Esme and not looking for Jason. Then, what are you standing here for?”
Seth looked towards Jason and Esme's room door. There was only silence coming from inside the room.
At this moment, in reality, Esme was lying on the bed while Jason went to the balcony to look for fresh cold air to calm himself down. Therefore, no sound was heard.
“It sounds Esme and Director Hall are arguing right now,” Layla said gently. In front of others, of course she had to maintain the image of the Andreas family as the grand and elegant Eldest Miss.
Seth and Jason have been best friends since they were kids. Therefore, Seth also knew Layla from an early age. Layla liking Jason is no secret to her.
Seth put up an ear to listen, but still, no sound came. he chuckled, “Maybe you're wrong. I know Jason. He is not someone who easily gets out of control.”
“More, there is a woman as good as Esme. How could Jason possibly fight with him?” and Seth again.
Seth sings a hymn to Esme, and it really makes Layla very unhappy in her heart.
Esme is a good woman?
Besides that face and body, what else is good? Although Esme's personality changed slightly after the car accident, she was, in fact, still an equally arrogant, recalcitrant and reckless woman.
There is no education, and no job. Could such a woman be compared to her?
Although Layla felt a great injustice in her heart, in front of Seth, she displayed a polite smile. “Maybe I was wrong. I'm really worried they're fighting inside.”
Seth laughed too, “No, they won't do that. I'm sure those two will only get better, won't argue unnecessarily.”
Huh, I hope their relationship goes to hell!
“It's late, rest early. There are many programs scheduled for tomorrow.”
Layla nodded, turned around and went to her room.
Seth watched as Layla walked away, smiled faintly and went to her room as well.
The weather continued to work together the next day. The sky was so bright, from the sunrise and the breeze.
Jason, Seth and the others decide to do archery after finishing breakfast.
This isn't the first time Layla and Clara have visited Seth's ranch. Every time they came, they would shoot several arrows. For them, it was something interesting. Hitting a target, gives them a great sense of curiosity. More importantly, Jason loves archery.
Jason not only likes archery, but he also likes to bet.
Jason and Seth walk in front with Layla and Clara behind them. While Esme, she walked slowly, trailing far behind.
Layla turned around and looked at Esme.
After shooting a few arrows, they planned to ride a horse. So they all use riding gear.
That aura, coupled with Esme's beauty, melted in Layla's eyes.
Layla blinked, then quipped, “Esme, you don't even know how to ride a horse. Why are you using Shopia's riding gear?”
Esme kept walking forward while replying, “Since you all wear it, I also want to wear it.”
In fact, even without using any riding gear, he could still ride.
Clara snorted as she looked into Esme's appearance. Andreas' family having a daughter like this woman is really embarrassing. “This is no way to show off even if you like to show off.”
Esme swept a cold look over Clara's face, saying in her heart, ‘Women who are bored!’
Layla notices Esme's cold demeanor and her eyes turn a little irritated when she suddenly has a flashback to Esme and Jason's conversation last night.
“Esme, you wear riding gear because we do. Later, if we go up, you'll ride too?” Layla's words were filled with cynical insinuations.
Esme actually raised her chin, “Why? Can't I do it too?”
“Do you know how to ride a horse? Be careful, do not get thrown and die.” Layla sneers. Deep down, he did want this pleasant ending.
“Who said I would die if I didn't know how to ride a horse? My husband knows, so that's enough.” Esme blinked her eyes without expression. But his tone was clearly very satisfied.
“Who knows!” Clara shouted loudly.
Esme was surprised, confused, “My husband really knows how to ride a horse. How can you not be ashamed to say it?”
“Very disgusting! Husband, husband and husband keep saying every time you open your mouth!”
Holding back his laughter, Esme had a puzzled expression on her face. “This you call disgusting? But Jason is really my husband.”
Layla looked at him as sharp as a dagger. Seeing the proud smile on Esme's face, she had a strong urge to hit him.
“His knowledge is meaningless if you don't know it.” Layla refuted, trying to break Esme's confidence.
“Nothing, we can double ride.” When saying this, Esme was so light and looked quite convincing.
Esme's words instantly brought the image of Jason and Esme riding the same horse into Layla's mind. This was something he dreamed of, even in his sleep. Will this become a reality for Esme?
“Esme, you become more shameless and thick-faced.” Layla.
“Why am I thick-faced?” Esme was confused. ‘No Sin’ was written all over his face as he stared at Layla.
“You know nothing but monopolize the mind. All of Jason's face and reputation have been damaged because of you.”
Esme did not want to answer anything, but Layla still continued, “Just act accordingly. If you don't know how to ride, behave like that. But you still wear riding clothes.”
Does wearing clothes indicate that one should know how to ride?
“We do the betting later. You also want to join?”
Layla further cornered him, planning to make Esme's guts shrink. In the past, Esme would not have had that courage. She's just a woman who understands nothing but as Jason's teaser.
