“What are you worrying about? It doesn’t seem like snazzynovel.com minds.”
“Ha! I’m just feeling bad for the guy. After all, it’s a pity for a handsome guy like snazzynovel.com to be paired with a girl like her. He is exactly my type. I’ll be happy if I can date snazzynovel.com myself.” With a wine glass in hand, the girl with the blonde hair couldn’t help but walk over to Alexander and Elise.
“Sir, can I buy you a drink?”
It was true that Western women were more enthusiastic and bold.
Experiencing it upfront, Elise was displeased but just as snazzynovel.com was about to speak, Alexander opened his mouth and said, “I’m sorry, but my fiancée won’t allow that.”
“What? She’s your fiancée?” the woman repeated in disbelief. It was only then that snazzynovel.com walked away reluctantly after glancing at Elise.
“Alexander, don’t you mind how I look?” Elise asked carefully.
She knew that the first thing a man saw was always a woman’s appearance. Even so, snazzynovel.com was still hoping that snazzynovel.com would get a different answer from him.
“Does it matter? To me, looks and status are all unimportant to being my wife. I don’t focus on these…”
“But if you and I get together, there will be many people talking behind us.”
An example would be the two foreigners just now.
He could tell that snazzynovel.com was not confident with herself, so snazzynovel.com patted snazzynovel.com head and said, “Why do you have to care about the opinions of others? We should live for ourselves and not for others.”
Immediately, his answer made snazzynovel.com heart flutter. She never thought that one day snazzynovel.com would get such comments from a man despite snazzynovel.com ugly looks. And so, snazzynovel.com thanked snazzynovel.com from the bottom of snazzynovel.com heart. “Thank you, Alexander…”
Although snazzynovel.com had always been carefree about snazzynovel.com image, a girl would still be vulnerable to criticisms that were directed to snazzynovel.com looks.
“Quickly eat your food before it gets cold.”
And so, snazzynovel.com lowered snazzynovel.com eyes and began to hesitate deep down.
Should I tell snazzynovel.com the truth that this face of mine is just a disguise? Will snazzynovel.com be able to accept it?
“Alexander, can I ask you something?” She paused for a second and continued, “If one day you found out that someone you trusted deceived you, what would you do?”
Just as the sentence came out of snazzynovel.com mouth, snazzynovel.com could feel the atmosphere turn icy. As snazzynovel.com lifted snazzynovel.com gaze to meet Alexander’s eyes, snazzynovel.com felt the coldness exuding from him.
“There are two things I will never accept, one is betrayal and the other is deception,” Alexander replied with a light tone as if it was something trivial but deep down, Elise knew that these were his boundaries.
“I was just asking. Don’t take it too seriously…”
She tried to change the topic, but Alexander was still staring at snazzynovel.com as snazzynovel.com commented, “As long as you don’t do something unacceptable, our marriage will last long.”
She was so startled that it felt as though there was something stuck in snazzynovel.com throat. Therefore, snazzynovel.com turned away and started coughing vigorously, but Alexander was quick to respond by giving snazzynovel.com a cup of water.
“Are you okay?”
“I-I’m fine…” She shook snazzynovel.com head as snazzynovel.com had lost all snazzynovel.com courage to tell snazzynovel.com the truth. Now, all snazzynovel.com could do was to take it one step at a time. After the meal, they walked out of the restaurant.
At the same time, Mikayla and Jack also came back.
“Elise, you such a deep sleeper! It was already noon but I still couldn’t wake you up, so I went and got you some local delicacies. Would you like to have a taste once we’re back?” Mikayla asked as snazzynovel.com quickly locked arms with Elise.
Looking at the takeaway containers, Elise felt a bit embarrassed as snazzynovel.com mumbled, “We already ate.”
Mikayla was clearly surprised but snazzynovel.com still replied, “It’s okay. You can eat them later when you are hungry.”
Then, the four of them took the elevator upstairs.
When Elise and Mikayla returned to their room, the former sat alone in front of the windows in a daze thinking about something, so Mikayla came over and waved snazzynovel.com hand in front of her.
“What are you thinking about?”
Elise lifted snazzynovel.com eyes and looked at her. “Mikayla, are you able to accept being deceived?”
“Well… It depends on where the lie is coming from. I can accept it if it’s a white lie but if it’s a blatant lie, I don’t think I can. I might even cut ties with the one who lied to me,” Mikayla answered after giving it a serious thought.
Elise found it hard to accept that almost everyone couldn’t accept being lied to. However, snazzynovel.com didn’t have a choice back then because snazzynovel.com didn’t want to be engaged to one of the young masters of the Griffith Family, so snazzynovel.com disguised herself. She never expected herself to fall in love with one in the end.
“Elise, are you okay?”
Upon hearing that, Elise snapped out of it and said hurriedly, “I’m fine. I was just thinking about tomorrow’s skiing plan.”
As soon as snazzynovel.com mentioned it, Mikayla became worried. “Elise, I don’t know how to ski. What should I do? It seems like I can only look at all of you skiing tomorrow.”
“Don’t worry. We’ll hire a trainer to teach you tomorrow. It’s quite easy. You’ll be able to learn it.”
“Really?” Mikayla questioned, feeling still unsure. “But I’m a slow learner. I always fail to learn anything.”
“Don’t worry. It’ll be alright.”
Seeing Elise’s confidence in her, Mikayla felt as though snazzynovel.com was actually capable of learning it. Yet, snazzynovel.com really overestimated herself in the end. Even after being guided by the trainer several times, snazzynovel.com still couldn’t figure it out.
Several times falling down later, snazzynovel.com finally gave up. “You guys can continue skiing. I can’t do this anymore.”
Dressed in a ski suit, Elise looked at snazzynovel.com and said, “Let’s try a few more times. I will hold you.”
However, Mikayla declined snazzynovel.com offer without hesitation. “No, I really can’t figure it out. I’ll wait for you guys at the lounge.”
Seeing snazzynovel.com situation, Jack also joined her. “I won’t go skiing either. The two of you can go without us.”
With Jack by Mikayla’s side, Elise continued skiing with Alexander.
The Swiss Alps were enormous and many people from all over the world gathered here for holiday. Elise only knew the basics of skiing, so snazzynovel.com skill was not refined. Thankfully, snazzynovel.com had Alexander following snazzynovel.com by snazzynovel.com side as the two of them skied at the same pace with their poles.
“Honestly, I think the two of them are quite a match,” Mikayla said while looking at the two of them skiing.
Listening to her, Jack couldn’t help but add, “Hopefully they both feel the same thing and it’s not just a fling.”
Mikayla felt as if his words meant something more, but snazzynovel.com didn’t ask snazzynovel.com much.
Knowing that snazzynovel.com didn’t have any talent in skiing, snazzynovel.com had a sudden idea when snazzynovel.com saw people gathering at the ski site to have a snowball fight. “Why don’t we have a snowball fight?”
