Chapter 2301


    "What?!"


    As soon as Sophie heard her grandfather asking her to stop looking for her benefactor, she could not understand his intentions. So, she asked


    iprehensively, "Why, Grandpa?"


    Jefferson replied vaguely, “It will not be good for you t o continue looking for him. So, it will be better for you t o just forget about it.” 3


    Sophie frowned, and she was very persistent as she said, "Grandpa, the person that I am looking for is me and my brother''s benefactor! He saved


    our lives! So, no matter what it is. I will continue looking for him. I will not give up even if I can''t find him!"


    Jefferson was a little anxious as he solemnly replied, "I t is not about whether you are going to find him or not! This is something rted to your own


    safety in the future!" 3


    Sophie was unconvinced, and she asked, "My future safety? What has this got to do with my future safety?" 1


    Jefferson replied seriously, "Old Master Lennard said that your fate is in direct conflict with his fate.


    Moreover, his fate is much higher and harderpared to yours. So, it will be fine if you do not look


    for him. As soon as you find him, it will be like a moth that is attracted to the mes. and you will be the one getting hurt in the end!"


    Sophie immediately retorted, "Grandpa, I do not have any intention to go against you directly. However, I feel that what Old Master Lennard is saying


    is all pure nonsense!”


    As she spoke, Sophie continued speaking without hesitation, "My benefactor saved my life. If what Old Master Lennard said is true, and ifI ama


    moth and he is the raging mes, why didn''t I get burned to death, then? Why did he save my life instead? I think that Old Master Lennard is simply


    saying things recklessly and irresponsibly!


    Jefferson sighed before he said, "Sigh. How can you change something like fate? He indeed saved your life before this. However, that is already in


    the past! Old Master Lennard has already counted your fate for you, and he is seeing the future!" 3


    Sophie did not hesitate as she


    retorted, "I dom care about what is


    going to happen in the future. I only


    know thathe saved my life. I want.to


    find him''so that I can personally =


    thankhim face to face. Itis asu''


    simple as that! It does not matter


    even if our fates will sh directly


    with each other! Worsees to


    worst, I can just return this life to


    him, then!" 4


    Jefferson reprimanded her as he said, "Sophie! Don''t talk nonsense here! What Old Master Lennard said is not a joke. You have to listen to his


    advice!" 3Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Sophie shook her head before she said, "These are all pseudo-scientific feudal superstitions! I will not heed his advice!"


    Helen had a serious expression on


    her face as she-said, "Sophie,


    divination afd fortune-telling are a


    form of supreme wisdom that ours


    ancestars have left behind for us: sit


    is by nd means any form of feudal


    superstition. Furthermore, Qld


    Master Lennard is the most famous

    should be in awe of him!” Content

    As she spoke, Helen said solemnly, “In my opinion, it would be best for you to stop looking for him anymore. You should stop right now!"


    Sophie felt even more anxious at this time, and her eyes flushed red as she said, "Mom! Why do you believe in these kinds of things, too? You


    graduated from a prestigious university! No matter what it is, you should believe in science!" 4


    Helen asked seriously, "Sophie, how can you be so certain that divination and fortune-telling are not science, then?”


    Sophie blurted out, "It is all just a


    bunch of feudal superstitions! What


    kind of sciente is there? If there is N


    indeed ac basis I in this matter, thens


    why cantt he tell me where I ‘can find


    my bériefactor directly, then? 2 Why


    would he tell me that our fates are


    directly shing with eachother? I


    will not believe in such things!" 7


    Helen solemnly replied, “Divination and fortelling are a set of philosophies and study that the ancients derived after years of observation, studies,


    summarizing the universe, the stars, and all things ini t. It can even be considered as science!" 5
