Chapter 173 The Bonfire
As Lenora was still not very adept, she tumbled down the snowy slope and took quite a while to get back
up
Coincidentally, Connor was nearby and swiftly cover to help Lenora up.
Lenora steadied herself with her ski pole and brushed off the snowflakes from her eyes. She then turned toward
Conner and said. "Thank you"
Connor flashed her a shy smile in response. "No need to thank me... Um... Ms. Wilkin, may | add you on
Afraid that Lenora might refuse, he quickly added. "I intend to cover your dry cleaning costs
"Sure: I'll have Soph give it to you when we get back," Lenora said.
Connor broke into a delighted smile, revealing his two pointed canine teeth as he said. "Great Thanks, Ms.
Wilkin!"
During that tin Nardor, the days were long and the nights were short. The sky would darken by three or four
in the afternoon.
The ski resort had lit up early, illuminating the snowy landscape.
They stayed at the ski resort until after five, leaving utterly exhausted. Yet, they didn't feel the slightest bit tired
inside; instead, they felt exhilaratingly satisfied.
On the bus ride home, Sophia noticed that Lenora looked worn out, yet her expression was related. She patted
Lenora on the shoulder and chuckled as she asked, "So, how was it? Skiing is quite fun, isn't it?" Lenora nodded.
"I had a great ttoday."
"That's the spirit! Don't overthink anything; just enjoy yourself. Once you return after a month. | guarantee you'll
have completely forgotten about Tyrant Fuller!"
Lenora simply chuckled lightly in response.
Upon hearing this, Connor cast a curious glance at Lenora and Sophia. He surmised that Sophia must've been
referring to Lenora's ex-boyfriend.
Sophia turned her gaze toward Connor and the others as she asked, "Connor, which university do you guys go
to?"
"Broburgh University." Connor replied.
Sophia arched an eyebrow, expressing her surprise. "Did you study abroad or are you an overseas Clusian?"
"Overseas Clusian. | moved to Muprary with my family when | was twelve." Connor replied.

For this very reason, he seldom paid attention to the domestic online scene, and he certainly didn't know Lenora
and Zachary.

Connor shook his head. "We planned on going back to our hcountry for the New Year this time, and if all
goes well, we intend to stay there and not return here."
"What's the matter? Weren't things going well over there? Why the sudden desire to return home?"
Connor thought for a moment and said. "It's not that it's bad. It's just that my parents believe that, eventually,
one must return to their roots. Coincidentally. | just graduated from university, so | decided back. Well, it's good
to be back anyway. The development back hha He then asked with a smile. "Where are you guys from Ms.
Wilkin?"
Sophia chuckled as she glanced at Lenora. "What's this Planning on coming back to our country for a visit?"
Connor flashed them a shy smile, sparing a glance at Lenora without uttering a word.
"We're from Jacaster. If you ever get the chance to visit, make sure to get in touch with me. I'd love to treat you
to a meal"
To her surprise, Connor's eyes widened, and he exclaimed with delight. "Really? Jacaster is my hometown Too!"
"Really? What a coincidence!" Sophia exclaimed, exchanging a surprised glance with Lenora and Fiona. "Yup! We
used to live near Petalgrove Road in the old ary district. | wonder how that area has developed
now.
"Many places over there have already been demolished
Connor chuckled. "Unfortunately, when we moved abroad, we had to sell our house. Oh, and Ms. Tortell, could
you passMs. Wilkin's WhatsApp.contact?"
Sophia arched an eyebrow, her gaze shifting toward Lenora.
Lenora gently nodded in response.
"Ms. Wilkin has agreed to it," Connor added
Sophia then handed Lenora's Whatcontact over to Connor
Connor responded by sending Lenora a friend request, which she accepted right away.
Connor glanced at Lenora with a smile, then sent a cute cat emoji through WhatsApp.
Lenora flashed him a smile in response, but did not reply to his message.
The rooms of Connor and his two companions were not on the sfloor as Lenora and the others.
After they had exited the elevator, only Lenora and her two companions were left inside.
Sophia playfully looked at Lenora and laughed, asking "Why did you suddenly agree to add him on WhatsApp"

"When we were skiing, he offereda helping hand, then asked to addon WhatsApp. | didn't feel right to
refuse him."
"| think it's a pretty good choice. | didn't expect his family to be from Jacaster as well. Who knows, there might
be a chance for something to develop in the future." "We'll talk about that when the tcomes," Lenora said
after a brief pause.
In reality, she didn't have any particular thoughts about Connor.
Upon returning to the suite, Sophia collapsed onto the bed and didn't feel like moving a muscle.
The trested in the room for half an hour before heading to the restaurant for dinner. After finishing their meal,
they made their way to the rooftop to soak in the hot spring.
As her exhausted body was enveloped by the warm, gentle flow of water, it brought her instant relief. It felt as
though every pore had opened up, washing away all traces of fatigue.
The hot spring was outdoors, with chilly winds blowing intermittently. Unable to bear the cold, Lenora submerged
herself in the water up to her neck, leisurely admiring the beautiful view of the harbor.
After enjoying a hot bath, they proceeded to the sauna, where they encountered a few foreigners. They engaged
in a lively conversation, the topics twisting and turning like a mountain road.
After finishing her sauna, Sophia retreated to her room and nestled in bed, editing pictures.
While she was busy editing pictures, she casually said, "Oh, by the way, there's something | need your opinions
on."
"Go ahead," said Lenora, whose face was covered in a mask.
Are we planning to rent a car and go after the Aurora ourselves tomorrow, or should we join a small tour group?"
"Didn't we agree that we'd be going on our own?" Fiona then suddenly thought of another question and asked,
"Can we catch the Aurora if we drive ourselves? Im worried we might miss it because we don't know any better."
"I was grappling with this issue. | originally planned to drive myself, but when | was soaking in the hot spring
earlier, | looked at the sky. It's been cloudy these past few days, with thick clouds. The forecastalso
mentioned a low probability of seeing the Aurora So, | thought maybe we should join a small tour group. The tour
guide has been working here for many years and has far more experience than us. Also, someone just messaged
shoes, and blankets. There's plenty of food on the bus to cat as you for free. There's a bonfire, and most
importantly, it please, and a photographer will take guarantees a view of the Aurora. If we don't see them, we
can join the tour again the day after tomorrow for free, Sophia said.
The fact that it guaranteed a sight of the Aurora was quite impressive.
There was also a bonfire feast under the Aurora.

Friends from all corners of the earth gathered under the Aurora, sitting by the fire, sipping hot stew and

It was reminiscent of the tthey had just been in the sauna. Despite hailing from different countries, having
different skin colors, and belonging to different races, they sat together in harmony, conversing freely. The
feeling was something to be yearned for. "How about we join a small group tour tomorrow, then spend the next
few days on a road trip?" Lenora suggested.
"All right," Fiona said.
"I'm signing up, then!"
After adding the person in charge ou
WhatsApp, Sophia signed them up.
The tour guide, who was Clusian, instructed them to wait in the hotel lobby at five in the evening the next day. A
coach bus would be there to pick them up.
The sky didn't brighten until nine o'clock. After breakfast, they strolled around the city, then found a restaurant
to have lunch. Finally, they returned to the hotel to wait for their tour group's bus.
At five o'clock, the tour guide sent a message to Sophia, saying they would arrive at the hotel in five minutes. He
advised them to keep an eye on the tand be ready to cout and wait.
Lenora and her two companions were already prepared. So, they simply headed downstairs and waited at the
hotel entrance.
As soon as she stepped out of the hotel's main entrance, a biting coldness swept over her from all directions.
Despite being bundled up in a thick cotton coat and boots, with cotton gloves on her hands and ear warmers on,
Lenora still felt a slight chill.
By that time, the sky had already darkened, yet it was not quite the sas the pitch-black nights in Jacaster. At
that moment, the sky over Torthbury was a deep blue, speckled with countless stars, and yet it was surprisingly
bright all around.
The streetlights on either side of the road flickered to life, illuminating the hotels and residential buildings, all of
which had their lights on. On the opposite side of the road, two cars were parked, and every now and then, cars
would whiz past on the road. The black car parked across the street had no lights on
At a casual glance, one wouldn't have noticed there was someone inside.
In the darkness, through the car window, Zachary caught sight of a figure he hadn't seen in a long time. He held
his breath, his gaze unwavering.
