Chapter 129


    “You’re definitely not the one who suggested this!” Seth knew him well.


    “Indeed. It was Cordelia,” Marcus said softly. “She’s eager for you to be with Linda, so she


    suggested that we travel together so that you guys can spend time together.”


    “She’s so nice.” Seth smiled and lifted his eyes to look around. “It’s pretty great here… It’s just that


    it’s a little strange.”


    “What is it?”


    “I looked it up. This hotel is very popr. I thought it’d be crowded. However, apart from us, there’s


    no one else here! Even if it isn’t peak season, it shouldn’t be this quiet, right?”


    Marcus coughed twice. He had gotten his people to clear the ce beforeing. Of course, they


    did not see anyone here.


    “Sigh, it seems it’s in bad shape. Is it going to go out of business?”


    Marcus frowned and rolled his eyes at him.


    “What? Do you like crowds and crowded ces?”


    Seth shrugged. “Perhaps people are used to conformity. Hehe. After all, I definitely won’t go to a


    restaurant with fewer people when I eat out!”


    Marcus released a low hum. “There are fewer people at 7-star hotels, but you can’t afford to eat


    there.”


    “Hey, why you…” Seth was not sure whether tough or cry. Forget that he did not speak, but he


    would always startle one when he did.


    He regretted taking care of him day and night back then to save his life.


    “Hey, why are you guys dilly-dallying?!” Cordelia’s voice came from in front.


    Marcus lifted his eyes. She was waving at both of them.


    Cordelia and Linda stood by the street. Apart from them, there seemed to be another person there.


    His eyes turned grim, and he instantly had his guard up.


    He had cleared the ce. No one was supposed to be here, so what was happening?

    “Come here, hubby!” Cordelia held his arm. “This olddy does palm reading!”


    He was stunned. There seemed to be a temple not far away from here.


    It made sense that there were fortune tellers around this area.


    However, he was still worried. He wanted to pull Cordelia away, but she was smiling at him, insisting


    that he should show the olddy his palm.


    “Please take a look, granny!” Cordelia showed her right hand as well. She put her palm together


    with Marcus’ left palm. “I’d like you to look at our marriage!”


    She did not care about anything else. She only cared whether she could be with her husband


    forever.


    She looked at the olddy with anticipation. However, the olddy lifted her head a momentter,


    looking at her with sadness in her eyes. At the same time, she revealed a strange smile.


    “I see that you have the life… of an empress! You’re destined to prosper!”


    “What?” Cordelia was stunned andughed. “You must’ve made a mistake! We don’t have


    empresses in this age.”


    The olddy waved, her old voice trembling as she spoke. “That’s not what I meant… Youngdy,


    I’m saying you’ll marry well. Your husband is definitely a ruler of the world!”


    “What!?” She held Marcus. “This is my husband! Hah, he’s just a regr man.”


    The olddy looked at Marcus nkly. A light suddenly shed through her cloudy eyes.


    “This is your husband?” Her pitch went up at the very end. The atmosphere turned extremely eerie.


    “Hah, When pretense receives credence, even honesty is mistrusted; Where we pretend to have,


    what we have is lost… Hah, husband? He’s your husband here, but he’s no longer who he is when


    he’s away from you!”
