"Would you like a drink?"

Claudia shook her head and said, "I'm off for another spin with Proudsnow!"

After saying that, she raised her horsewhip and Proudsnow ran out.

Bennett watched the woman on the horse move away, and right then, his mobile phone in his pocket started to vibrate. He took his eyes off her and retrieved his phone.

When he recognized the caller's number, his cheerful expression dimmed considerably. Getting off the horse, he passed the reins to a nearby staff member before settling on a nearby seat to take the call.

"What can I do for you, Mrs. Dreskin?"

It was a call from Jolie.

“Last night, your father collapsed. Do you and your wife want to visit him at the hospital?"

“Thank you for letting me know."

The relationship between Bennett and Jolie was neither good nor bad.

“I'll end the call now," she said.

And with that, Jolie ended the call.

Bennett stared at his phone, a frown creasing his forehead.

"Claudia!"

At first, Claudia thought she was hearing things when her name echoed out. It was only after the second call that she realized it wasn't her imagination.

She tugged gently on Proudsnow's reins, bringing it to a halt.

At the same time, the person who called her also rode over.

She wasn't sure who it was until he got closer.

Surprisingly, it was Darnley, Bennett's half-brother.

Observing the disdainful expression on his face, Claudia understood that Darnley was about to say something bad.

In the past, she wouldn't hesitate to fire back with curses.

But now things had changed. Her marriage to Bennett meant she needed to show respect to his family, his younger brother included.

Moreover, she'd managed to upset two out of the three main family members on Bennett's side.

As for the last one, Claudia was in a dilemma.
