Chapter 1131
At a little over three o'clock in the afternoon, the helicopter arrived in Baxrich.
Cooper had long since contacted a five-star hotel in Baxrich, and the helicopter landed on the helipad at the top
floor of the building. They first went downstairs to their room to put their things away.
Baxrich was in the north, so it started going into winter in October. By December, there had already been several
snowfalls.
The entire city was blanketed in a deep layer of snow, making for a fairytale-like sight.
It was the first time Amanda had ever seen a city with such thick snow. She trotted on the street after exiting the
hotel, only to accidentally trip on the snow with a thud.
Seeing that, Cooper hurried forward and helped her up.
Amanda's face came into contact with a large patch of snow, making her so cold that she shivered. But still, she
grinned happily. “Uncle Cooper, do you know there's this saying to dig something?”
“To dig deep,” Lucian interjected.

excitedly.
At that precise moment, Sally walked up. “You haven't seen fun yet.”
Recalling the “ski castle” she mentioned, Amanda no longer obsessed over the stunning scenery before her eyes.
Instead, she urged Sally to bring her there posthaste.
The ski castle was located at the southeast of Baxrich.
It was actually a vast expanse of snow, famous for its castle structure. Other than beginner ski trails for children,
there were various other fun activities available.
Next to it was the biggest ski resort that enjoyed great acclaim in Baxrich. Many people who loved skiing came to
enjoy themselves each year.
It so happened to be Christmas that day, so there were even more tourists than usual.
As soon as Amanda alighted from the car and caught sight of the castle-shaped snowscape in the distance, she
exclaimed several times in a row. If it weren't for Cooper clutching at her collar, she would have sprinted off ages
ago.
Cooper planned to head to the counter to buy tickets when Lucian brandished his phone at him. “I bought tickets
online, so we only need to scan the barcodes.”
While walking side by side to the ticket gate with Cooper, Sally stuck her hands in her pockets and remarked
placidly, “Are you out of touch with the world that you don't even know how to buy tickets online, Mr. Sutton?”
In response, Cooper shot her a sidelong glance. “Isn't that your job?”
“What has it got to do with me? They're your niece and nephew, not mine,” Sally retorted.
Out of the blue, Cooper lifted his arm and wrapped it around her shoulder, pulling her into his embrace. “That was
a genuine marriage certificate, Ms. Loake. Do you still remember why we got married?”
Leaning close to her ear, he murmured, “Other than us having the same goal, you've got to take good care of my
niece and nephew since you're their aunt.”
Sally dipped her eyes, her expression was cold and indifferent. “Let go of me.”
“It's nothing unusual for a married couple to hug each other,” Cooper teased, in a good mood. He moved his hand
down to her waist, and they went to the ticket gate together.
Meanwhile, Sally was afraid that she wouldn't be able to keep a tight rein on her strength and end up pummeling
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhim so badly that he would be laid up there overnight.
Restraining herself, she yanked the collar of the sweater up to cover half her face.
When Amanda stepped foot into the place, she was dazzled by the various kinds of snow activities. She ran all over
the place, thrilled to the core.
Digging out a clump of snow from the ground, she shaped it into a ball and flung it at Cooper with a cry.
Cooper didn't dodge, so the snowball hit his down jacket. A good deal of snow slid down the collar into his jacket,
making him shudder. Amanda, on the other hand, burst out laughing.
Feigning anger, Cooper scooped up a snowball from the ground and tossed it. But his hand abruptly changed
directions, and it hit Sally instead.
Sally lowered her head and glanced at the snow staining her down jacket. Her hands remained still stuck in her
pockets, and she said nothing.
Conversely, Amanda hurled another snowball at Cooper, clamoring, “Don't pick on Aunt Sally, Uncle Cooper! Take
this!”
“Okay. I'll pick on you, then!” Cooper packed a snowball to lob at her.
Before he could do so, a snowball hit him first. Failing to dodge in time, it hit him squarely in the face. Half his
glasses ended up covered in snow.
Amanda doubled over in laughter. “You got hit, Uncle Cooper!”
