Tina held onto the man’s arms with a smile on her face and said cheerily, “I was in a coma for so longthat I’ve forgotten how to ski. Once we arrive at the skiing field later, you’ll have to be my skiinginstructor!”
Toby glanced at her leg and asked with a frown, “Are you sure that your leg is fine?”
“It’s just a minor wound. Besides, I’ve been hospitalized for so long and I’ve recovered ages ago.” Tinasmiled lightly and held onto his arm tightly. “It’s rare for you to accompany me for a trip when you have
the time, so of course I want to share the fun with you.”
“Okay,” Toby responded calmly.
Tina had mentioned that she wanted to have some fun once she was discharged from the hospital.Coincidentally, Toby had some spare time so he decided to accompany her. However, he didn’t expecther to plan a trip to Mt. Buller Resort. It‘s quite likely that Sonia‘s here to seeThomas after getting the information from me.
Sonia and Charles went to the equipment
shop to rent their ski attire and equipment
as soon as they entered the ski field. Then, they changed into their attire in the
changing room
The skiing boots and jacket were quite heavy but fortunately for Sonia, she
became used to them relatively quickly.
She walked down to replace that each chi trail
She walked down to replace that each ski trail was full of people.
She scanned the place and realized that everyone looked identical in their ski attire. After searching forThomas at several ski trails, she was exhausted and her eyes felt quite uncomfortable. “The ski field ismassive. Charles, have you caught sight of President Drew?” There was no response from him for quitesome time and Sonia turned around, only to replace that there was no one behind her.
“Baby, were you looking for me?” Charles zoomed toward her from the slope above
and he did a perfect turn on his skis before
stopping right in front of her.
Angered beyond words, Sonia muttered, “I
asked you to come along and help me replace President Drew. How dare you go skiing?”
“There are so many people here and everyone’s spread out all over the place. There’s no way I canlocate anyone here!” Charles grabbed his skis and dragged her along. “Let’s go, baby. I’ll teach you howto ski. I’m sure you’ll turn out to be a formidable skier from my intensive coaching.”
Speechless, Sonia surveyed the massive
ski field and realized that it was indeed quite crowded. In the end, she couldn’t
help feeling resigned.
Just then, Charles dragged Sonia to the
beginner’s slope. “This is the beginner’s
slope and it’s not so challenging. It’s
cuitable for o nowhis lika von Oncovou
suitable for a newbie like you. Once you get used to your skis, you’ll be able to move around freely. Bythen we can head to the other intermediate slopes with a higher incline.”
It finally dawned upon Sonia and she
murmured, “No wonder there are not that many people here and most of them have someoneaccompanying them. It’s because this is the beginner’s slope.” She peered around and all of a sudden,she saw a couple enter the ski trail.
Coincidentally, it was someone she was
quite familiar with
Tina saw Sonia too and her expression
turned cold instantaneously. Soon after that, the former plastered a smile on her face and greeted thelatter, “Miss Reed, it’s
cunha coincidence to meet vou and your
such a coincidence to meet you and your boyfriend here.”
“Miss Gray, we’re actually not that close to each other so there’s no need for you to force yourself togreet us,” Charles responded lazily. “Why don’t you pester your darling President Fuller to spoil you? Youshould get him to take over this whole ski field and prohibit us from entering. Then, there’s no chance ofus coming into contact with each other!”
Upon hearing that, Tina pursed her lips.
“Mr. Lane, I don’t recall doing anything to
offend you. I have to say that your words are simply too extreme!”
“Have you forgotten about the incident at
the club?” Charles suddenly exclaimed
with curnrise and continued “Oh-that
with surprise and continued, “Oh-that makes sense then! You only have President Fuller on your mindbecause you’re overly anxious that your recycled
husband will be taken by someone else.
Obviously, you wouldn’t care to remember anything else then.”
Tina’s face turned as pale as a sheet and she looked quite pitiful standingthere. Charles is so rude! Previously at the club, he deeply embarrassed me in public and I let it
go then but today, his words are harsher than before! He‘s so despicable!
“Gosh! I didn’t scold you so stop looking at
me with that expression.” Charles acted fearfully and turned to say to Toby, “President Fuller, yourgirlfriend is as fragile as a porcelain doll, so you’d better take extreme care of her to prevent her
from shattering into pieces!”
Meanwhile, Toby narrowed his eyes but remained silent and guided Tina to the other side. He thenadjusted her gear for
“Come here, baby. Let me help you.” Charles kneeled down to help Sonia fasten her skis onto her boots.Snorting coldly, he
muttered, “Tsk! It’s so easy to show affection!”
Meanwhile, Sonia couldn’t control her
laughter as she found his actions quite
amusing
“What’s so funny?” Charles stood up and ruffled his hair before smirking at her. “Is it because you thinkthat I’m handsome? Dah….hu don’t….me and income
Baby, why don’t you try and gain some weight? I’m sure I’ll be able to bring more happiness to your life.”
“Shut up!” Sonia poked him with her ski poles. “Don’t force me to slap you on the face!”
Charles subsequently behaved himself
after being poked by Sonia and his expression turned quite solemn. He carefully lent her a helping handand gave her time to gradually get used to the skis.
Meanwhile, Tina, who was standing quite
close to them, heard their conversation
and her face flushed pink. She softly
remarked, “Although there are not that many people around, how can they… flirt
so blatantly? That’s so shameless!”
Meanwhile, Toby glanced toward Sonia and Charles with tightly furrowedbrows. I thought that she came here to discuss business with the boss of Continental Co.
but I never expected her to be skiing and flirting with Charles. She seems to be
enjoying herself a lot.
“Ignore them,” Toby mentioned in a low voice and the surrounding temperature seemed to be lower thanbefore.
All of a sudden, Tina shivered as she lifted her head to look at him. She noticed that he had an impassivelook on his face; it
was as if his previous turbulent emotions
had never existed and it was all in her
imagination.
On the other hand, Sonia was a newbie at
skiing so she was completely clueless at
1. it. After Charles had finished giving her
instructions, he let go of his hands and allowed her to slowly attempt using her ski poles. She tried to skifor a short distance but she soon lost her balance and fell onto the snowy surface.
This triggered Charles’ mocking laughter. “Baby, you’re so clumsy! How can you fall even while using skipoles! Can’t you balance yourself?”
“Shut up!” Sonia noticed Tina by the side, who was quite adept at using her ski poles as she skiedaround gracefully. The former felt a stronger sense of displeasure and she clenched her teeth, getting upfrom the ground to continue practicing.
After multiple falls, she finally managed to
maneuver her ski poles deftly and she
could also glide around the track quite
easily. At that moment, she finally experienced the pleasure of skiing and no longer paid attention to thepeople around her but immersed herself into the activity.
In the afternoon, Sonia and Charles made their way to the ski field once more and this time, they chosethe intermediate trail. There were more people on this trail and it
was buzzing with energy.
Charles no longer needed to instruct Sonia
and he fixed his skis on before gliding along behind her. Perhaps he was too bored, so he kept chatteringto her and
was quite a distraction.
“Baby, come over to my place for dinner with Grandpa on New Year’s Eve,” Charles
murmured. “My mom nagged me over the
phone two days ago because she wanted
to see you.”
After her marriage, Sonia had always spent the New Year’s with Toby and his family. This year, however,she was no longer married to him
But in the end, she didn’t agree with Charles’ suggestion. “Let’s talk about this
later.”
She was aware that he felt sorry for her,
but the Reed family still existed as there
was still her and her grandfather left. Besides, she didn’t wish to intrude on
another family’s gathering on such an occasion. She knew that her grandfather wouldn’t want to either.
Charles heaved a sigh. “Could you just
agree to it considering my handsome
looks? Pretty please, my darling
girlfriend?”
“Fake girlfriend!” Sonia replied in a huff.
She no longer wanted to listen to him chattering so she dug her poles into the snow, thereafter brushingpast him and gliding off. She had merely moved a few meters when she suddenly heard the
sound of skis moving against the ground
behind her.
Before she could react, she felt a sharp pain from behind and the impact knocked
her ski poles off the ground. She could fee
herself zooming down the slope.
“Sonia!” Charles shouted, his expression
darkening as he quickly rushed after her.
The slope was quite steep and she
The slope was quite steep and she zoomed downhill without any chance of stopping. Without her skipoles, she found she was unable to balance herself and she wobbled unsteadily.
Suddenly, a shadow zoomed toward her from the side and a man pulled her as he
moved closer to her. Then, he quickly
wrapped her arms around his waist and
said with a low voice, “Hold on tight. Don’t let go of me.”
Sonia was sick with panic that as soon as she heard the voice ring out inaudibly by her ears, sheimmediately tightened her
grip on the man’s waist.
Toby calmly steered his skis downhill and
he skied on quite effortlessly despite
having another narcon clinning onto him
having another person clinging onto him. Soon, they arrived at the end of the slope and they came to afirm stop.
“Miss Reed, we’ve arrived,” Toby announced as he looked at the woman who was still clinging to him.“What’s up? Do you want to hold on to me for a few more minutes?”
Toby Fuller? Sonia immediately let go of him as soon as she figured out who that male voice belongedto. She moved further away, keeping a distance from him.
Then, she removed her safety helmet and
revealed a composed look. “I’m sorry. I
thought that you were my boyfriend so I
held on to you tightly earlier. Thank you,
President Fuller.”
