Chapter 337
“Stupid behavior?” Joana fumed, totally not thinking about her image, “Who are you talking about?”
“You.” Elio, who had been silent till now, suddenly spoke up. His voice was icy cold, his gaze colder
than a snowstorm, “None would want to be with a dimwit like you.”
The moment Elio finished speaking, there was silence all around, only the whistling of wind and snow.
Astrid quietly agreed with Elio. His words were sharp!
Joana bit her lip, fighting back the tears. She dared not offend Elio.
She knew that with just one word from him, she could be replaced.
In her anger, she had forgotten that Elio, the big shot, was present.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Maddox cleared his throat and changed the subject, “Erm, the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsnowstorm is pretty bad. Let’s take shelter first.”
Elio’s cold gaze swept over Joana. She couldn’t help but shiver, her legs too weak to move.
After a few seconds, Elio turned his gaze to Astrid and spoke softly, “Astrid, let’s go. It’s too windy
here.”
“Be careful, it’s slippery.”
“May I carry you?”
Astrid: “No.”
Elio: “Then may I hold you?”
Astrid frowned, “No, Elio. I’m not a child. I can walk!”
Elio: “Alright, I understand.”
Everyone was speechless.
Elio’s attitude changed too quickly.
But Astrid was probably the only one who dared to contradict him so directly.
The next day, the weather was good, the sun was out, and the temperature had risen quite a bit.
Looking around, the white snow–capped mountains looked magnificent.
“Wow! So beautiful!” Joana’s cry came from nearby. Astrid’s face changed immediately, “Joana, don’t
shout loudly on the snow mountain!”
Joana didn’t care, “What’s wrong with letting off some steam?”
Astrid was speechless. She sternly said, “Sound waves have crests and troughs. If you shout loudly,
the energy from the sound waves can trigger an avalanche. The vibrations from the avalanche can

cause an even bigger one. Are you trying to get us all killed?”
“Avalanche? I didn’t realize I had that kind of power.” Joana rolled her eyes at Astrid and continued to
shout, “Wow!!! So beautiful!!! The snow mountains are so beautiful!!!” “Wow!!!”
Joana’s voice echoed throughout the valley. Naylor, who was surveying the terrain not far away, felt a
sudden urge to stranglé her. Before entering the mountains, he had given everyone a booklet on
surviving in the wilderness. Clearly, Joana hadn’t read it!
Astrid was worried. She pulled out a roll of tape from her backpack and taped Joana’s mouth shut.
Joana: “…”
“Now you’ll be quiet, I…” Astrid didn’t get to finish her sentence. The snow on the mountainside next to
them started to slide down.
If it weren’t for the fact that Naylor had chosen a relatively gentle slope, the falling snow could have
been much worse.
Joana was stunned as she watched the snow slide down the mountainside.
She tore the tape off her mouth, still defiant, “The snow sliding down has nothing to do with me.”
