Chapter 165 Horse Racing
Dexter’s expression was ambiguous. Suddenly, he smirked and said, “Sure, let’s see if your have slacked off on your skills.”
Josie’s back broke out in cold sweat. Dexter owned this racecourse. He would have no problem riding well. However, Josie had never been on a horse before this. She feared what would happen to her if Arnold insisted on competing with Dexter.
Thankfully, Arnold had mercy and did not begin the race immediately. He embraced her securely and guided the horse to walk a few rounds so that she could get used to the movements. At the same time, he said to Dexter, “I heard Leo went to Rivodia. Initially, I thought he would stand firm on his principle. Who knew he would give in eventually?”
Dexter sat straight on the back of his horse. “If he still hasn’t learned to lay low and bid his time, he should stop telling people that he regarded me as his older brother for years.”
Arnold smiled. “Lay low and bid his time? Aren’t you worried he could turn into a wolf and attack you one day?”
“Arnold, a weak puppy can never turn into a wolf. Don’t you agree?” Dexter’s gaze seemed to hint at something. He glanced at Josie and smiled slightly.

Everyone tried to convince me to give up on purchasing Lan They seemed to think Russell Group is guaranteed to win.”
“I have no power to instruct them to do that. You misunderstood.”
Seeing Josie was less nervous, Arnold looked at Dexter and replied, “Of course, I trust the people on my side. However, I wonder if you can trust anyone in Russell Group.”
Dexter’s smile gradually faded. At the same time, Arnold hugged Josie tightly and pulled the rein. “Let’s begin.”

“Josie, control your breathing and open your eyes.” Arnold’s calm voice sounded by her ear.
They were so close that Josie could smell his special perfume. The fragrance was a mix of lilies and roses blended with the unique scent of his masculine pheromone. He secured her tightly in his embrace so that she would not move.
Josie worked hard to calm down and opened her eyes to see Dexter riding ahead. His form was mesmerizing and powerful. Dust filled the air as he rode past. He reminded her of a commander returning from a victorious battle.
His horse galloped fast and soon left them behind. Dexter even had time to glance behind. him and met Josie’s gaze, oppressing her with his domineering presence.
“Don’t space out during such a crucial moment?” Arnold’s voice woke Josie from her daze. He sneered and continued, “Seems like you’re no longer afraid.”
“No…” Josie could barely say one word before Arnold suddenly sped up. He caught up with Dexter and turned to him, shouting, “Dexter, I’m going to overtake you!”
Dexter smirked and hit his horse with a riding whip. His horse neighed loudly and charged madly ahead, putting a considerable distance between them.
Josie was stunned. Dexter’s horse was startled and galloped wildly on the racecourse. Yet, he could control it.
