Chapter: 1577
Suddenly, Alyssa exclaimed, “Hey, Greta, they’re following us! I knew Miss Wilson cared!"
Hearing this, Greta reconsidered and signaled her companion, ready to proceed with their original plan.
Unaware of the underlying scheme, Alyssa was excited. “Miss Wilson is such a good skier. Maybe she can teach me some moves? Her boyfriend looks familiar. I wonder if I've met him previously."
While on the ski lift, Norah turned to Sean and asked, “Would you like to go on an adventure with me?"
Sean responded enthusiastically, “I'd love to.”
After disembarking, they caught up with Alyssa.
Norah was concerned about the woman who had competed with her the previous day; she seemed to harbor ill intentions and could potentially lead Alyssa into trouble. By staying close, they hoped to help if needed.
Sean, equipped with the latest GPS device, wasn't worried about the risks of the slopes. “Even if we get lost, my team will find us," he assured Norah.
Alyssa skied over with a bright smile. "Miss Wilson, I'm glad you're here. Can I call you Norah? You can call me Alyssa."
“Sure, Alyssa. Let's ski together today," Norah agreed.
Alyssa's enthusiasm bubbled over. “Great! I wanted to tell you yesterday how cool you looked skiing. I brought my camera to capture some shots of you today.”
Even if she couldn't capture good shots of herself, Alyssa was eager to take great photos of Norah.
“Haha, thank you," Norah replied. She had come to ski, not to think about photos. Sean wasn't keen on being photographed either. Without Norah's occasional snaps, there would be few pictures of him, “Greta, where's that off-piste trail you mentioned? I'm a beginner, so I need some guidance," Alyssa said.
“Of course, I know you're new to this. I wouldn't take you anywhere dangerous," Greta assured her.
Leading the way, she navigated the group down the mountain while a fully equipped Norah followed closely behind.
Looking around, all Norah could see was a vast expanse of white, as if the entire world was blanketed in snow.
“We're here," Greta announced from the front.
Alyssa, catching her ski poles, sighed in relief. "Finally, it feels like it took forever to get here.”
Greta smiled. "I've been here many times. From here, we can ski down to a secluded trail. It's lightly trafficked, so you'll get to enjoy more scenery, and it's perfectly safe."
Alyssa, eager to learn, asked, “Could you teach me more techniques? I'd like to try skiing down by myself.”
Greta glanced at Norah and Sean before turning to Alyssa. “Alyssa I've shown you everything I know. Maybe they can help?"
Although primarily a snowboarder, Norah had some skiing expertise. She offered Alyssa some casual tips to try out on the snow.
Alyssa was familiar with basic skiing techniques, and the trail, being relatively flat and open, required nothing more complicated.
Greta cautioned, "I've been here often and always stick to the marked path. It's safe once you reach the main trail, but I haven't ventured beyond, so please be careful."
