Chapter: 829
�What does that mean exactly?�
�It means that your marriage is long-lasting, unlike any other couple in the world. You don�t have to worry 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 loving one 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 another man 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 the fee 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 remiss if I don�t leave you with a gift.
�A gift?� Renee stopped and turned around, looking at the old man with interest.
How lucky could she be today, to receive a gift from such a legendary person?! She glanced at the old man�s stall. Any one of those items was either priceless or incredibly rare-she could easily make a fortune selling any of them!
But the old man had no intention to give her any of his wares. Instead, it was something that he carried with him.
�Take this silk handkerchief, young lady. One day, it will give you much needed guidance.�
The old man then stretched out his branch-like arm towards her, handing her a finely crafted silk handkerchief.
�This silk handkerchief�� Renee was astonished when she saw the pattern on the handkerchief.
There was a phoenix and some red spider lilies embroidered on the handkerchief, it looked similar to the pattern she saw on the quilt her grandmother had left her all those years ago.
Perhaps it might even have been made by the same person. It�s a shame that the quilt was destroyed in that fire� Just as she was about to ask the old man where he got this silk handkerchief, a woman with her head covered in blood rushed towards her and clung onto her leg.
�Help me!� she shouted. �Please help me, Miss! Those people are going to stab me to death��
The woman looked to be in her early thirties. She continued to cry, �I can�t die right now, Miss! If I die, then my son would become an orphan! Please, Miss! You must help me!� JrNovels.com
