Chapter 1525


    ric paused, his gaze drifting downwards, only to catch sight of Hertha''s bald head. Though there


    were hints of bluish hair sprouting, for a woman, that was as good as being bald.


    A flicker of surprise crossed ric''s eyes. Just moments ago, Hertha sported her usual sea-green


    locks, and he hadn''t noticed anything amiss.


    To think she was wearing a wig, and her real hairstyle was a bald head? That didn’te to him.


    This revtion left ric stunned, his lips twitching involuntarily.


    Hertha always had a way of surprising him, often leaving him speechless and in awe at her


    unpredictability.


    While ric was caught in his surprise, Hertha''s heart raced with panic. Her voice was trembling as


    she shouted, “Stop, ric, make the horse stop now!”


    “It''s alright; it''s cooler this way. Let Lightning give us a spin. It''s more thrilling than a car ride,” ric


    said with a smirk ying on his lips.


    Cooler?


    Hertha felt a prickle of difort at those words, as if her heart was being pierced by fine needles.


    So, ric had seen her bald head after all. It felt as humiliating as being stripped naked and


    paraded through the streets.


    Flushed with embarrassment and anger, Hertha yelled, “Who wants to go for a ride with you! ric,


    you jerk, let me down, I want to get off!”


    “You don''t know how to ride, then I''ll carry you…” ric tried to insist.


    Hertha, with her back to him, couldn''t see his expression, but the image of ric staring at her bald


    head and mocking her filled her mind.


    Her face reddened with urgency and fury, her voice sharp and on the verge of tears, “Let me down,


    or I swear I''ll jump off this horse!”


    After saying this, panic-stricken and on the brink of tears, Hertha tried to leap off.


    Feeling her impulsiveness, ric''s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly wrapped his arms around


    her to prevent her from doing anything rash.


    His voice softened, “Don''t be rash, I''ll stop the horse.”


    With that, he skillfully slowed the galloping horse to a halt.

    Just as the horse stopped, Ethan rode past them, turning his head to say with augh, “You were


    going pretty fast. Why stop?”


    Hertha felt Ethan''s gaze on her bald head and immediately covered it with her hands, her face


    burning with embarrassment.


    Only then did ric see Hertha''s demeanor, She was blushing with shame, deeply afraid of others


    seeing her bald.


    ric was surprised. Hertha, usually so carefree and unconcerned with appearances, was actually


    self-conscious about her hair. No wonder she was so angry before.


    ric said, “It doesn''t matter. You look great even without hair.”


    Hearing this, Hertha''s anger red even more. She turned to re at him, her chest heaving with


    emotion as she yelled, “ric, stop looking at me. Turn your head away!”


    Seeing Hertha''s genuine distress, ric quickly said, “I''m just speaking the truth.”


    “You…” The more she wanted ric not to see her in this embarrassed state, the more he kept


    talking about it.


    Hertha, both embarrassed and annoyed, angrily stomped on ric''s foot, “Hmph!”


    “Ouch! Are you trying to kill me?!” ric yelped, hopping on one foot, looking aggrieved.
