Chapter: 828
�You can put it that way.�
�Then tell me, who am I?�
Renee waited eagerly for the old man�s answer with a playful smile on her face. She had heard of swindlers and conmen who could tell someone�s fortune by just randomly picking a name-statistically, there would come a time when they�d get it right.
That was why she absolutely did not believe that this old man could guess herreal name. After all, her last name was pretty rare and her first name was not a common one either.
The old man raised his eyebrows, and with a half-smile said, �You are the granddaughter of Liliana Schneider, the heroine of North City, correct?�
The smile on Renee�s face faded. She became serious in a heartbeat as she asked, �How did you figure that out?�
If he had guessed her name correctly, she could still have assumed that the old man must�ve loved reading gossip about famous people. As Stefan Hunt�s exwife, her name and face were considerably recognizable. But the old man managed to guess her grandmother�s name, and that was nothing short of amazing, because the Everheart family never publicly announced that the woman her grandfather married 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 skills now?�
�If you figured that out based on your fortune-telling skills,� Renee clasped her hands together, �then you must be the master of all master fortunetellers! I'll 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.
�Sure! I was planning to do that anyway.�
Renee enthusiastically leafed through the cards and spent ages before she finally drew one from the stack.
The old man took the card, glanced at it, and said, �Two of Cups. What would you like to ask, young lady?�
�I�� Renee bit her lips. She hesitated for a while before replying, �I want to ask, will I ever get married again before I die?�
She felt ashamed of herself as soon as she uttered those words. She had sworn off love and romance for 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 be willing to get married once more. She just refused to believe that Stefan Hunt would be the only man she would love in her entire life.
He was dead now anyway, and she could not spend the rest of her life as his widow, mourning him, right?
�As lofty as the mountain, as boundless as the sea, an unrivaled pair, their union shall stand through eternity� 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 utterly perplexed. JrNovels.com
