The old man raised his eyebrows, and with a half-smile said, ‘You are the granddaughter of LilianaSchneider, the heroine of North City, correct?”
The smile on Renee’s face faded. She became serious in a heartbeat as she asked, “How did youfigure that out?”
If he had guessed her name correctly, she could still have assumed that the old man must’ve lovedreading gossip about famous people. As Stefan Hunt’s ex-wife, her name and face were considerablyrecognizable. But the old man managed to guess her grandmother’s name, and that was nothing shortof amazing, because the Everheart family never publicly announced that the woman her grandfathermarried was the one and only Liliana Schneider from North City!
“It looks like I got it right.” The old man stroked his beard, then asked, “Do you believe in my skillsnow?”
“If you figured that out based on your fortune-telling skills,” Renee clasped her hands together, “thenyou must be the master of all master fortune tellers! I humbly bow to your incomparable mastery!”
“In that case, why don’t you draw a card and ask the question that your heart yearns for an answer?”
The old man’s gaze shifted to the deck of tarot cards as he made the suggestion.novelbin
“Sure! I was planning to do that anyway.”
Renee enthusiastically leafed through the cards and spent ages before she finally drew one from thestack.
The old man took the card, glanced at it, and said, “Two of Cups. What would you like to ask, younglady?”
“I…” Renee bit her lips. She hesitated for a while before replying, “I want to ask, will I ever get marriedagain before I die?”
She felt ashamed of herself as soon as she uttered those words. She had sworn off love and romancefor the rest of her life! This was so out of her character!
Yet, she really did want to know if she would ever love another man again, or perhaps if she would bewilling to get married once more. She just refused to believe that Stefan Hunt would be the only manshe would love in her entire life. He was dead now anyway, and she could not spend the rest of her lifeas his widow, mourning him, right?
“As lofty as the mountain, as boundless as the sea, an unrivaled pair, their union shall stand througheternity… You really are a one-in-a-million couple!”
The man recited Renee’s fortune with a meaningful smile on his face, but Renee herself was utterlyperplexed.
“What does that mean exactly?’
“It means that your marriage is long-lasting, unlike any other couple in the world. You don’t have toworry that you will grow old and die alone.”
Renee could not help but laugh after hearing the old man’s words.
“Are you saying that I still have the chance to meet the man who will spend the rest of my life with me,right?”
“You can put it that way.”
“Great!” Renee was now relieved. “That’s so good to hear!”
She knew that she was nothing like those ladies in the olden days who dedicated their lives to lovingone man for the rest of their lives. She could not possibly love Stefan Hunt alone, for the rest of her life!
Sure, she still could not forget him now, but she was confident that one day, she would meet anotherman who would make her fall in love with him and completely wipe Stefan out of her mind…
Renee glanced at her watch. It was time to get ready for business now. She then paid the old man thefee for the fortune-telling and was about to leave.
“Wait,” the old man stopped her. “We’re destined to meet each other, young lady, so I would be remissif I don’t leave you with a gift.
