Chapter 297 - 297: Horseback Riding (1/2)
Diana asked her Butler to escort her visitors going to the horse stables and arena. Her friends were already there waiting for them. Diana would just change into her riding clothes.
When Erick and Elle together with their colleagues arrived in the horseback riding Arena, Diana's friends were already riding their designated horses. There were also three professional trainers, watching and guiding them to ensure their safety.
”Whoa! This is my first time seeing different breed of horses in person.” June mumbled in awe as he watched the horses.
”Me too!” Bryan said.
”Amazing!” Josh also blurted out.
”I want to ride those horses too!” Sandy said with eagerness in her voice.
Elle and Erick were also admiring the horses in front of them.
”They look like professional riders with their riding clothes!” June said as he watched Diana's friends.
The butler couldn't help letting out soft chuckles.
”Indeed. Miss Diana and her friends are all professional riders. Horseback riding became their hobby since they were still little kids.” The Butler proudly said to them.
”Really?” Sandy couldn't believe it.
”Well, that is very much expected for those rich kids,” she added.
”There are twenty horses in the stables. Four breeds… quarter horses which are trained specifically for the discipline. They have smooth gait and calm demeanor.” One of the trainers approached them and started to talk about horses.
They just listened to him attentively.
”There are also Tennessee Walking Horses known for their graceful and comfortable gait. Another breed is the Carolina Marsh Tucky. And the favorite horse of Señorita Diana is the Morgan horse. If you are looking for a trail, pleasure riding companion, or competitive sports horse then that would be Morgan horse.”
”Wow… that's nice. I want to ride that horse too!” Sandy said enthusiastically.
”Sorry, dear. You can't as of now.” Diana's voice was heard.
When they turned to look at her, she was already wearing her riding clothes, a red helmet matched with red gloves, black paddock boots which were knee height.
Her slender and s.e.xy figure was emphasized after wearing a black fitted long-sleeved shirt and blue jodhpurs. A red safety vest completed the picture. She looked very cool and elegant at the same time.
”Why?” Sandy asked, feeling disappointed.
That's the time Diana's friend went to meet them.
”Because you are not wearing proper riding clothes.” It was the trainer who answered Sandy's query.
”Ah ok.”
”Diana! Finally, you are here. Hmm, we see... you also bring other guests” a husky voice caught their attention. He was one of Diana's friends.
Diana smiled at him before she spoke up.
”Okay. I should introduce everyone first.”
”This guy who just spoke up is Jeff. The guy beside him is Jake, he is the older brother of Jeff.”
”Hello, guys!” Jake put on a suave smile and waved his hand to greet them.
”This is Kisses, my cousin. Isabelle, my best friend. The lady in yellow is Laura, my friend way back in college.”
The three ladies just smiled at them while Diana started to introduce Erick and his team as well as Elle and her companions.
”These are Aliyah, Sandy, and Josh, reporters from Morning Star Media Network.”
”Oh… how about these three handsome guys with you, my dearest cousin?” Kisses asked her curiously.
”They came from the Crime Investigation Bureau. They are assigned to my father's case.” Diana replied to her with a charming smile on her face.
”Sergeant Bryan and Sergeant June…” Diana paused and she turned to Erick.
”And lastly, this is Chief Detective Erick Lee, their team leader,” Diana said to them using her sweetest voice.
The Ladies gasped in surprise.
”Oh, that's why he looks familiar to me. He is Erick Lee, the famous Chief Detective of the country!” Isabelle exclaimed in excitement.
Erick just nodded to greet them. He was not used to being the center of attention. He felt a little bit uncomfortable right now. June and Bryan just exchanged meaningful glances with each other. The reaction of these girls was not new to them.
