Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

The cabins at the Winterland were beautiful. They were deliberately built in a way that snow would pile up on the rooftops. In front of each cabin were shovels and brooms to clear the snow, as well as lighted streetlamps.

In the moments before the sky darkened completely, it was an unbelievably clear and beautiful sight.

Mashauva told Bruno to set her down. She took a few pictures with her phone when suddenly, something cto mind. She raised her head and said to Bruno.

"Bruno, we've never taken a photo with just the two of us yet. How about we take one?" Bruno had never said no to her, so hearing that, he nodded and said okay.

Mobile phones in the current era were equipped with comprehensive functions. Mashauva switched to the front camera and told Bruno, "We can just use this." "Alright." After Mashauva got into position, Bruno bent down to get closer to her. Mashauva had found a nice background for the picture, but it was immediately obscured after he leaned in.

Her painstaking effort in choosing it went to waste.

When Bruno drew closer to her, Mashauva's hand inadvertently trembled. She blinked twice, looking at the two faces on the screen.

Bruno was handsome, and his eyes were alluring. Just as those girls described, they resembled the vast ocean. Mashauva then looked at herself; her face was as round as her eyes, worlds apart from Bruno's exquisiteness.

In that instant, Mashauva was disheartened.

Just as she was about to put her phone away, Bruno tapped the shutter button.

Just like that, the picture was taken.

Dumbfounded, Mashauva couldn't believe he pressed the shutter button. She hadn't wanted one anymore after thinking about how fat she was.

too! I want one too!" Freddy, who had been following behind Bruno and Mashauva, noticed that they were taking selfies. He flung Qiana's luggage aside instantly, shoved himself in between them, and grabbed Mashauva's fair wrist.

"Masha, take a picture withtoo." After saying that, Freddy immediately took Mashauva's phone regardless of whether she agreed to it or not. "C'mon, I'll hold the phone. My arm is long so the background will be visible." Freddy then snapped several photos of the two of them in succession while she was like a deer caught in headlights the entire tbecause she still hadn't had the tto register what was happening. Swiping through the phone gallery, Freddy noticed Mashauva looked confused in every photo they took, whereas his expression was everchanging.

"I looked self-absorbed." Freddy thought.

Whatever, it was good enough for him that they had gotten photos together. He smiled and turned to Mashauva, asking, "Can I have the pictures?" "Sure." Of course, Mashauva didn't think there was any problem with that.

Then he sent them to his phone using Mashauva's before returning it to her.

"Promiseyou'll treasure the photos we've taken." "Of course, I will, Freddy!" Qiana finally caught up with them while they were happily snapping away. She had been looking for an opportunity to send photos of Mashauva to her group chat, and it had finally arrived. Breathlessly, she gasped, "I want pictures too. Mashauva, let's take stogether." When Mashauva was about to agree, Bruno suddenly broke his silence. "Let's go inside. It's getting dark. We should go check out the rooms. It's only our first day here; there's no rush." Freddy immediately echoed, "Yeah, we don't have an itinerary, so there'll be plenty of chances for us to have fun and take photos. I've brought a camera. We can use it to take pictures once our luggage arrives. They'll look even better." With that, Qiana's plan failed.

Qiana looked at Mashauva's back with sresentment. Had Bruno done it intentionally? Why had he stopped her even though both of them had taken pictures with Mashauva? Could it be that he had seen through her intentions during her first attempt? That wouldn't do! She had to find a chance to explain to Bruno.

The cabin was a double-storey. The lower floor comprised the kitchen, bathroom, and dining room, whereas the bedrooms were all on the upper floor.

There were three bedrooms in total. Bruno and Freddy had one each to themselves, while Mashauva and Qiana shared one.

Numb from the cold, Qiana's hands and feet gradually regained swarmth after they entered the cabin. The co-owner of the cabin, Laura, served them a bowl of thick, hot stew but the layer of grease got Qiana's stomach churning.

"Here, have smutton stew. It'll warm you up nicely. The snow this year is too heavy. It must not have been easy for you all to walk here. Quick, drink sand warm up." When Mashauva heard what it was, her eyes immediately lit up and took it from Laura.

"Thank you!" Laura took in Mashauva's rosy cheeks, as well as her round eyes and face, thinking to herself that she was exceptionally adorable. Smiling, Laura said, "You're welcome. Drink." In the end, Qiana could not endure the cold any longer and accepted the bowl of stew with trembling hands.

When her hand touched Laura's, Laura said in surprise, "Your hands are so cold. It must've been quite the difficult journey getting here." Then, Laura saw what Qiana was wearing and couldn't hold her tongue. "You young girls, you should prioritize warm clothing when

coming to a place like this. You only think it isn't a big deal now because you're still young, but the cold will really eat at your bones as you age. Girls have a lower body temperature on average so that's even more reason to ensure that you're warm enough."

Qiana ate the mutton stew. She never liked the taste of mutton, but she was surprisingly alright with it. Th@hot stew slidinto her system, making her feel warm all over. After a while, her face returned to its original rosy color.

After finishing her bowl of stew, Mashauva couldn't help smacking her lips as she looked shyly at Laura O and asked, "The stew really delicious. Can I have another bowl?" Laura had never seen a girl as adorable as Mashauva, moreover one with an exceptionally sweet voice. She immediately agreed with a smile. "Of course." However, Qiana scorned Mashauva, hearing their conversation.

It was more than enough to drink one bowl of that kind of stew to warm up. Yet, Mashauva wanted seconds. Fatties would always be fatties. As long as the food was good, she'd eat without restraint and not care about the calories.

A girl like that would never be able to lose weight.

Qiana could not wrap her head around why Freddy would like a girl like this? Did he have a thing for them? Qiana rolled her eyes and finished her bowl of stew.

Influenced by Mashauva's cuteness and charm, Laura gave her ssnacks from her personal stash after she was done with the stew.

"I can tell you're a foodie just by looking. These snacks are from my personal stash, not for guests. Since I'm fated to meet a guest like you today, I thought I should share it with you." X
