Chapter 176
My mom had a kind of weird look on her face as she said, “Exactly, you’re gonna be single forever, but my daughter is way too awesome to be single forever. I don’t buy this!”
I just chuckled and didn’t comment, feeling a bit bitter inside because I might indeed end up being single forever.
Even though I come from a decent family, the fact that I couldn’t have kids kept all the suitable guys away from me.
“Hey, where’s my phone? Suddenly, my mom patted her pockets and rummaged through her bag, realizing her phone was gone.
She slapped her forehead and said, “Darn it; I must’ve left it on the tarot card table Let me go get it.”
I stopped her and said, “I’ll do it. You’ve had a long walk, and you’re not in good shape”
I left my mom where she was and headed back to the psychic granny’s house alone to get the phone.
As soon as I got to the door, I heard the psychic granny’s voice, “Madam, don’t force it. You and him are not meant to be.”
I walked in and saw Bonnie standing there, gripping her tarot cards with her face full of defiance.
My mom’s phone was on the table. Thankfully, no one had taken it.
I walked over, picked up the phone, and said to the psychic granny, “Hi, this is my mom’s phone. I’ll take it.”
The psychic granny nodded.
Suddenly, Bonnie pointed at me and asked, “What about her?”
“Madam, that’s her private matter. We can’t disclose it.” The psychic granny replied calmly.
Bonnie seemed very resentful, probably because she found out that she and Neil were not meant to be, so she was in a bad mood
I was about to leave with the phone when Bonnie and Kate were also about to go.
They didn’t seem to care whether it would be awkward to walk with me. The two of them just silently followed behind me.
Bonnie got a phone
