“Hey, old lady!” 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 old lady suddenly called out to them.

They stopped walking. They saw her losing her unfathomable stance 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 to laugh or cry. “How much do you want, old lady?”

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

Seth was dying from laughing.

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