Love Is Fair

Chapter 156 You Don’t Deserve to Be My Backup Hailey came downstairs, Matthew got off the horse and opened his arms to hug her. “Hailey, happy birthday!” However, Hailey just pushed him away and stared at the white horse. It was beautiful, clean, and neat. Seeing Hailey, it lifted its forehoof and greeted her affectionately. Hailey stroked it with a smile and asked in amazement, “Is this a jade-eyed white horse?” Surprised, Matthew gave her a thumbs up. “You can tell that?” Ava also came downstairs. It was the first time she had seen a live horse and she was a little scared. “Hailey, its eyes…” Chris told her, “It’s a rare jade-eyed white horse. Its eyes look like jade. It’s said to be because its irises lack a certain pigment.” Ava nodded. As they chatted, Hailey quickly got on the horse. She was as cool as a female general. She stroked the horse’s neck and asked Matthew, “How much is it? I’ll take it.” Matthew frowned at her. “Come on. It’s a birthday gift for you. I just want you to stop being mad at me and stay friends with me.” Hailey knew he was trying to please her, but she liked the horse. “No problem.” Matthew was thrilled and even happier than Hailey. He seemed to have nothing better to do. He insisted on staying at the Garden of Rose all afternoon. Hailey gave the horse a bath in the yard herself and named it Boris. Then she asked Old K to take it away and take good care of it. Soon the sun was going down and her brothers were arriving. Hailey was ready to go out. Matthew followed her. “I heard you’re having a birthday party at Savory Restaurant tonight. Can I come?” “No,” Hailey refused without hesitation. Matthew was sad. “Why?” Hailey replied patiently, “Because it’s a family dinner.” “That’s why I should be there.” Matthew walked up to her, walked backward as she walked forward, and chattered, “I’m your backup now anyway. I want to meet your brothers to see if I have a chance.” Hailey stopped in her tracks and gave him a cold glance. “How can you be so cheeky?” Matthew waved his hand casually. “You can say whatever you want.” Hailey said impatiently, “Don’t flatter yourself. You don’t deserve to be my backup.” She just pushed him away. “Get out of my way!” Matthew added, “I’m serious. Let your brothers meet me. Maybe they’ll like me and marry you to me.” Hailey sneered. “Then you’ll have to get Jared’s permission first.” Then she entered the house without a backward glance. Matthew was stopped at the door by Old K. Hailey’s words discouraged him. She was right. Jared wouldn’t give him permission to pursue her, but he thought he was more likely to make it than Owen, who had long been blacklisted and probably had no hope at all. ‘Where is he? Does he know it’s Hailey’s birthday?’ As Owen’s romantic rival, Matthew decided not to tell him about it.

Owen had just gotten off the plane and was on his way to Poyaland Lane. He had mixed feelings. It seemed that every time he came to Poya, his relationship with Hailey changed. Her identity kept changing and she got further and further away from him. The first time he came, he found out that the obedient country girl who had divorced him and disappeared was the president of Crystaldale. He went to The Nomad to ask her, but she simply glanced up at him and asked coldly, “Have we met?” The second time he came, he wanted to work with her on the northern Suburbs racecourse project. He met her in Crystaldale, but she looked him up and down and asked coldly, “Who are you to work with me?” This was his third visit. Would she turn him down again? Owen turned to look at the birthday gifts he had prepared for her in the back seat. They were nothing compared to the ones she had given him, but he had prepared them very carefully. He hoped she would be gentle with him for the sake of the gifts. He had never expected that he would one day become so humble to please a girl.
