While Edward was busy processing Ethan's words, Ethan and the other competitors dashed off, leaving him behind.
Edward became pissed as he turned to look at Madeline who didn't even bother to hide that she was in a bad mood.
She didn't even wait for his cue, before mounting on the horse. If it were up to her, she would have left the racetrack, and returned to the chamber, but she didn't have the courage to go against the king's order.
"You made your brother angry," Adelaide commented as the horse galloped away.
Ethan was holding on to her tightly while controlling the horse with its reins, which resulted in a very intimate position.
"Does he deserve to be called my brother?" Ethan replied with a question as the wind blew against their faces.
Adelaide did not give a reply as she looked ahead, she was observing, or rather, admiring the racecourse.
