Chapter 313

Because Cain and Sienna fell off their horses, the match was suspended for a few minutes. Sienna’s team leader also rearranged their formation. He could tell Sienna had a grudge against two women from another team. But Sienna was not as strong as Phoebe, so not only did she fail to restrain Phoebe, but she also allowed Phoebe to score.

Hence, he instructed Sienna and Cain to pin down the two weaker opponents while keeping Maddox busy. He and the others would focus on dealing with Phoebe and Raylan. This way, they still had some hope of staging a comeback.

Sienna did not take the team leader’s instructions to heart. She nodded perfunctorily. “Alright.” Then, the match continued.

At first, Sienna tried to pin down Albert and Gavin and kept harassing Maddox with Cain, as the team leader instructed. However, the other four people on her team were not that powerful. Not only did they fail to stop Phoebe and Raylan, but they also allowed them to score twice.

Seeing this, Sienna felt frustrated. She thought, I thought this champion team would be amazing when I chose them. Who knew they were just…

The match was about to end soon. Raylan and Phoebe were skilled and hadn’t fallen for their opponents’ tricks. Therefore, there was almost no hope for Sienna’s team to win. Sienna was filled with hatred because she was about to be embarrassed again when she lost. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have said those arrogant words. Now that I can’t win, I can only give up the competition and focus on dealing with Phoebe, Sienna thought.

Hence, after Phoebe snatched the ball from Sienna’s teammates again, she rode over with Cain. Seeing this, the others also rushed over to help Sienna. Maddox and the others also rushed over to help Phoebe. Hence, the two teams gathered together, looking very chaotic.

Sienna raised her cue stick. On the surface, it looked like she was snatching the ball, but actually, she was swinging it at the leg of Phoebe’s horse. Sienna thought, In any case, the match is about to end. It doesn’t matter even if I’m punished and have to leave. Anyway, so many people are scolding me online, so I don’t care if they continue to scold me for this.

Now, she only had one thought. She wanted to take this opportunity to let Phoebe and Andrea fall from their horse. Then, she would ride her horse and “accidentally” step over Phoebe and Andrea. “It’ll be best if the two of them are crippled and their faces disfigured.” The more Sienna thought about it, the more excited she became.

Phoebe had always been on guard against Sienna, so she did not let Sienna have her way. Instead, she placed her cue in front of the horse’s leg as quickly as possible, just enough to block Sienna’s cue.

After Phoebe blocked Sienna’s cue, she looked at Sienna and revealed the truth. “Why! Your dirty tricks didn’t work just now, so you want to commit a foul to hurt me now?”

Sienna cursed in her heart, “How could Phoebe react so quickly? I had almost succeeded just now.” Hearing Phoebe’s words, she pretended to be innocent. “What are you talking about? I made a mistake just now. I didn’t do it on purpose.”

However, even Cain didn’t believe it, let alone the people watching and participating in the competition. Phoebe sneered, “No one is a fool. It doesn’t matter if you don’t admit it. You’re going to lose anyway.”

Then, she deftly snatched the ball from under the club of Sienna’s teammates. She wanted to run forward with the ball, but Sienna directly rode her horse and blocked her path.

When Sienna’s team saw this, they also surrounded Phoebe. Then, with determination, Sienna rode her horse and blocked Phoebe’s path, forcing Phoebe to stop. She pretended to snatch the ball again, but the truth was, she wanted to hit Phoebe’s horse with the cue. This time, Phoebe did not block it. She deliberately let Sienna hit the horse’s leg.

As expected, the horse was in so much pain that it was shocked. Everyone was shocked by this scene. All of them were worried for Phoebe and Andrea. But at this moment, everyone saw Phoebe holding the horse’s reins tightly as if she wanted to stop the horse from rioting.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the horse jumped up. It stretched its legs high and kicked toward Sienna. Judging from it, the horse was clever and vengeful. After Sienna hit it, it wanted to kick Sienna for revenge. No one at the scene, except for Raylan, noticed that it was a horse-training technique Phoebe used. That was why the horse behaved like this.

Coincidentally, Sienna was riding sideways against Phoebe. After hitting Phoebe’s horse’s leg, she rode two steps away. She wanted to wait for Phoebe to fall off the horse and find an opportunity to ride over and step on them.

Who would have known that instead of being startled and throwing Phoebe and Andrea off like it had done before, the horse, with such a strong sense of revenge, kicked toward Sienna. If she got hit by those two horseshoes as they leaped, she would not only be thrown off the horse but might also suffer serious injuries.

So she instinctively turned around, reached out, and forcefully pulled Cain behind her, using his front half as a shield to block it for her. At this moment, perhaps due to her instinctual desire to avoid life-threatening danger, coupled with the help of luck, Sienna’s strength suddenly surged.

Hence, Cain watched helplessly as his sister, whom he had doted on for more than ten years, caught him at a critical moment to use him as a shield from disaster. Because it happened too suddenly, he was not prepared at all, so he did not have time to resist. It could be said Sienna caught him at the right time.

Cain was caught in front of her, and when she leaned back, the horse’s hooves landed on Cain. Cain only felt that his back was in so much pain that it was about to explode. Then, he spat out a mouthful of blood and screamed, “Ouch!”

Due to inertia, he and Sienna fell off the horse together. What was worse was that he landed first, and Sienna fell on him. He was like a cushion for Sienna, which added to his injuries.

At this moment, the signal for the end of the match sounded. Phoebe’s team had won. However, everyone’s attention was on Cain. The referee and paramedics immediately ran over to check on Cain. So did the production team’s doctors.

One of the doctors said, “He has suffered severe injuries, with multiple fractures on his back. A CT scan and three-dimensional reconstruction of the bones are needed to assess whether his scapula has a displacement or the extent of vertebral fractures. If it’s serious, we must operate immediately to treat it.” Another doctor also said, “His hands and feet are also fractured.”

Their words stunned everyone present. No one expected such a situation to happen. Then, people could not help but sigh, thinking, Cain is so miserable. It’s an undeserved calamity. It was Sienna who went to hit the horse’s leg. She deserved to be retaliated against by the horse. Unexpectedly, she was so heartless and reacted even faster. She pulled Cain, her brother, to block the disaster.

If Cain were to withdraw after falling off his horse earlier and not listen to Sienna to continue riding with her, he wouldn’t be so unlucky as to be Sienna’s living shield. Because Cain’s condition was severe, the medical staff carefully carried him onto a stretcher and sent him to the hospital for treatment.

After being carried onto the stretcher, Cain’s eyes were filled with pain and dullness. Then, he looked at Sienna. His eyes were filled with disbelief and an unprecedented coldness. Even though talking would cause an involuntary gasp of pain, he still looked at her and asked, “Why did you do that to me?” He thought, I came to protect her, but at a crucial moment, she deliberately harmed me. Why?
