Chapter 130


    What the olddy said confused Cordelia.


    She looked at her with doubt. She wanted to ask but was startled by Marcus, who was next to her.


    The man looked grim, his eyes ferocious, as if he could start a storm.


    Cordelia held his hand softly and whispered close to him, “Perhaps she''s so old that she doesn’t


    know what she’s talking about… Don’t take it personally.”


    Never had they thought the olddy had sharp ears that she heard what she said. She smirked.


    “You’re so kind, youngdy. You’ll be rewarded for your kindness.”


    “Thanks, granny.” Cordelia revealed a courteous smile. “My husband is actually nice. It’s just that he


    looks a little scary. He’s too serious sometimes, which is why he is often misunderstood.”


    “Hah, you want to look into your marriage, right?”


    Cordelia quickly nodded.


    The olddy peeped at the lines on her palm and slowly took two red string bracelets out of her


    pocket.


    The bracelet made from a chaste tree was striking. There was a cute bell hanging on each knot.


    They would make a crisp ring whenever one touched them.


    “Tie this around your wrist.” The olddy taught her word by word. “No matter how far away you two


    are separated, you’ll know where each other is when the bells ring.”


    “What nonsense is that…” Seth frowned and mumbled softly, “If there’s something this magical,


    then we can get rid of our phones!”


    Cordelia was stunned. She turned her face to smile at the olddy. “Granny, I won’t be too far away


    from my husband. We’re always together!”


    “You’ll be separated one day.”


    Cordelia’s face turned pale, and she held Marcus’ hand tightly.


    “But…” The olddy looked into the distance and said while smiling, “You two will live happily ever


    after eventually.”


    Only the frown on Cordelia’s face rxed slowly. The faint dimples appeared again.


    Marcus looked moody. He squinted as he looked at the olddy and then took Cordelia away.


    “Hey, olddy!” Seth interrupted. “Are you confused because you’re old? But what you said at the


    end was pretty great. Haha!”


    “Hey, you’re leaving?” The olddy suddenly called out to them.

    They stopped walking. They saw her losing her unfathomable stance earlier. She had her hands on


    her hips, staring with her eyes wider than a camel bell.


    “I told you so much, and I even gave you guys the string bracelets! Aren’t you going to pay me?”


    “Wow… You’re a scammer, alright.” Seth was not sure whether tough or cry. “How much do you


    want, olddy?”


    The olddy looked serious now and merely said, “It’s up to you.”


    Seth was dying fromughing.


    Marcus looked calm. He took a $ 10 note out of his pocket and handed it to her. The olddy smiled


    and looked at Cordelia in a cryptic manner before leaving happily.


    Since then, they stayed silent as they walked.


    Seth could not hold back and took the initiative to break the silence. “Don’t mind what she said! I’ve


    been to many temples. There are always scammers like this at the door, deceiving people. You


    can’t believe what she said! You guys will definitely live happily ever after!”


    Linda peeped at him. She showed approval in her eyes.


    He blushed and scratched his head shyly.


    Cordelia smiled and kept holding Marcus’ hand tightly. “Thanks, Dr. Stafford. I don’t really care, to


    be honest. Moreover, what she said was pretty great. She even gave us a beautiful red string


    bracelet.”


    She turned her face to look at Marcus, who was still serious. He was as cold as ice and intimidating.


    She knew he usually would not believe in that mumbo jumbo, let alone tying the bracelet around his


    wrist.
