Matriarch of the Hockleys

Miller, who was on the side, noticed his friend's trance, and deliberately bumped Carl with his arm, "Have you dated? It's a pity to miss such a beauty."

"Of course," he ignored his friend and kept his eyes on Andrea on the horse.

"Let's go!" Karl stepped forward to pull the rein, and stepped on the horse's back skillfully.Seeing this, Miller also hurriedly got on the horse, "Da~ da da~" He pulled the horse and leaned towards Carl, "Hey, do you need my help?" Eden by Leah's horse.Carl turned to look at Will with a meaningful smile.

"Okay, let's go." Karl pulled the horse and leaned towards Andrea.

"Mr. Bruce, I..." Miller saw Eden with a bad face, and hurried forward to talk, trying to prevent Eden from disturbing Carl.

Carl, who caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of his eye, showed a triumphant smile, "Let's go first! They seem to be talking for a long time." Andrea glanced at Eden, who was talking with Mr. Miller, and thought for a while. Gladly accepted Carl's suggestion.

Carl turned his head with a smile, "Let's go first, and meet near the lake at two o'clock."

"Okay," Eden's refusal was stuck in his throat, and he glanced at Mrs. Bruce with some dissatisfaction. "Go first!" Mrs. Bruce ignored Eden's dissatisfaction and continued.

"Let's go, let's see who reaches the woods ahead first." Carl's proposal was agreed by Andrea, "I will not lose to you." She pulled the rein, clamped the horse's back, and ran quickly to the woods.

Seeing Andrea's figure, Karl chased after her with a smile.

"It's nice to be young." Mr. Miller said with a smile, "Yes!" Mrs. Bruce sighed sincerely looking at their gradually shrinking backs.

"You're going to lose," Andrea shouted happily, looking at the woods not far away.

"Are you sure? I won't lose." The smile on Carl's face grew wider. He flicked his whip and accelerated his running speed.

The sound of running behind was getting closer, and Andrea was a little nervous, and she couldn't help speeding up again.

Just when she was about to reach the woods, a voice came from beside her, "We're tied," Andrea was startled by Carl's sudden voice, and she grasped the rein reflexively.

The running horse was startled by her sudden action, its front hooves were raised high, and Andrea felt her whole body leaning back, she was so frightened that she couldn't make a sound.

"Be careful," Carl didn't think that his words would cause such a situation.He hurriedly turned sideways to support Andrea's back with one hand, and grabbed the rein in Andrea's hand with the other.

Fortunately, the horses in the racetrack have been well trained, and soon the frightened horses calmed down.Karl couldn't help exhaling, fortunately they were lucky enough, otherwise...

"Andrea, are you okay?" Karl held Andrea's left hand, still a little worried.

"I'm fine." Andrea finally recovered from the loss of control of the horse.

"Sorry, Andrea. If I hadn't said it suddenly, this wouldn't have happened." Carl felt a little guilty, but he was more worried. He was worried that Andrea would be dissatisfied with him because of this incident.He suddenly felt tense.

"It has nothing to do with you, it's because I'm too involved." Andrea understands that Carl can't be blamed for all of this.

"Let's get down and take a walk!" Carl hurriedly got off his horse, standing beside Andrea's horse and whispered.He still felt that Andrea should dismount and relax. "Okay," Andrea did not calm down, and she followed Carl's suggestion.

"Be careful," Carl helped Andrea to let her get off the horse slowly.

"Tie this horse to a tree! I'll have someone pull it back later." Carl worriedly let Andrea walk on the other side, "After all, it was just frightened, ride my horse later Bar!"

"Okay, then let's go for a stroll in the woods first!" Andrea looked at the woods, feeling better.She wanted to go for a walk in the woods. "I'm happy to help you." After Carl finished speaking, he stepped forward first and tied the horse that Andrea was riding before to a big tree.

"Let's go." Carl took the rein of another horse, and walked into the woods with Andrea side by side.

"When did you learn to ride a horse?" Carl asked curiously. In his opinion, it seems that many noble girls are not willing to learn riding.It's not that they don't want to ride a horse, but side riding is difficult and dangerous.

"Probably when I was ten years old?" Andrea couldn't remember the exact time either, it was too long ago, and she spoke uncertainly. "My elder brother taught me himself. But I haven't ridden a horse for more than a year, otherwise I could do it by myself just now." Andrea explained that she didn't want Carl to think that she was not good at riding.At this moment she didn't realize that she had begun to pay attention to the image in Carl's mind.

"No, Andrea, don't face the danger alone. I will feel bad." Carl said disapprovingly, and he held Andrea's hand tightly.

Andrea felt the warmth of Carl's hand, and she wanted to pull her hand back.But Karl tightened his grip tightly, preventing Andrea's intentions. "Please allow me to hold you. Because only in this way can I feel at ease. Okay?" Karl let go of the hand holding the rein, and looked affectionately at the person he had always cared about. "Okay." Under Karl's hot gaze, Andrea couldn't help but agree.

"I love you," Carl put his arms around Andrea tightly. "Andrea." He leaned his face against Andrea's ear, and kept smelling Andrea's breath.

Andrea slowly put her arms around Carl's neck, "I seem to be too."

Hearing Andrea's answer, Carl couldn't help laughing.

He took a step back and looked at his sweetheart.He rubbed Andrea's hair carefully, "Can't you just say 'me too'? It's fine to coax me." Carl looked at her with pampering eyes.

"But I'm not sure yet." Andrea's words made Carl show a helpless smile.

"I know. Then I will continue to work hard. Before long, I will make you willingly say 'me too', no, 'I love you'." Carl took Andrea into his arms again , "I have faith in myself. My dear Andrea."

Andrea's head rested on Carl's chest, listening to the 'bang bang' sound coming from his chest, Andrea's heart was at peace, she felt unprecedented peace of mind.

It seemed like a long time before Karl let go of his hand. "Let's go." Carl helped Andrea straighten her messy hair from the hug, and said softly. "Hmm." Andrea's heart beat faster.The two walked side by side on the path, looking at the scenery different from that of the British mainland, stopping and talking from time to time.

"Look at that," Carl suddenly patted Andrea's shoulder, "What?" She looked along Carl's line of sight in confusion, but she didn't find anything different.

"There are animals moving there, you have to take a closer look." Carl said patiently.

Yeah?Andrea's eyes were fixed on the branch.Suddenly, she found the figure of the little guy, "Squirrel, there are squirrels there." She shouted in surprise.And that little guy seemed to be taken aback, it jumped quickly between the branches until it disappeared.

"It ran away," Andrea said with regret. "Do you like it very much? There should be some for sale at the racetrack. When we leave later, let's pick a pair." Carl put his arm around Andrea's shoulder, lowered his head and comforted.

"No, it's just a little fresh. Squirrels are not suitable for keeping at home." Andrea just regretted not being able to see enough, but she still enjoyed Carl's thoughtfulness very much.

"Do you like animals very much?" Carl felt the need to buy a pet for her.Women should love it.

"It's okay, but they are really cute." Bruce's old house has a parrot, which is Earl Bruce's favorite pet.But Andrea loves it no less.

"I'll pick one for you then," Carl said hastily, wanting to show his thoughtfulness. "What is it?" Andrea was a little curious about what pet Karl would choose to give her.

"It's a surprise." Carl smiled without saying a word.It seems that a decision has been made, but in fact he himself does not know what kind of pet he should give.

Karl had had many women in the past, but they were only mistresses and could not be compared with Andrea.And those women are all interested in his money, as long as the things are valuable, they will smile happily in front of him.

But Andrea is different. She is the object of his formal relationship and also his sweetheart.He is willing to dedicate everything to her, as long as she wants.

"Okay then, I'm waiting for your surprise." Andrea didn't show a curious look, anyway, she'll know after a while.

"Trust me, you will like it." Carl's confident words made Andrea laugh.

"Go on," Carl squeezed Andrea's hand with joy in his tone.

"Okay," Andrea let Karl pull her forward.

"I heard from your brother that you seem to be going back to England for Christmas." Carl said casually.

"Did he say it himself?" "That should be, what's wrong?" Andrea pulled up her skirt and carefully stepped over a shallow pit.

"is it?"
