Chapter 1093
"I've always believed that if two people truly love each other, they can overcome any obstacle and
difficulty. Even distance can't sever their bond."
Really? A shadow of indescribable sorrow flickered in Lisbeth's deep brown eyes.
She pursed her lips and whispered softly, "Didn't the tarot cards predict it? Raines and I are destined
for a tragic separation. Maybe it's about to come true."
Beverley and Aurelia exchanged a glance. The reading had clearly shaken Lisbeth.
Negativeness always left a deeper impression than positiveness.
"Lisbeth, tarot readings only predict a possible future for a given period. If you make changes, the next
reading could show a completely different outcome."
"Really?"
Beverley nodded vigorously, "Absolutely! Last time I did a reading for Aurelia, it was the Breakup card,
but this time it's the Sun card, signifying they've emerged from the fog into the light. It's like waiting for
the storm to clear to see the moon."
Aurelia offered a reassuring smile, "No matter what dangers you and Raines might face in the future, I
believe you'll both come through safely because Raines loves you deeply. True love can conquer
anything."
A bittersweet smile slowly appeared on Lisbeth. She said, "Raines has always treated me so well. I've
never had anyone else take such good care of me. Meeting him has been the luckiest thing in my life."
Aurelia gave her a knowing look, convinced of Lisbeth's feelings for Raines. A tall and handsome
attorney from a prestigious family, brimming with talent and gentleness. Who wouldn't be moved?
No one could escape the capture of love, not even a female assassin.
Dinner was ready, and they headed to the dining room together.
At that moment, Lisbeth's phone rang. Beverley, quick as a flash, grabbed the phone from the
nightstand, "It's Raines. I'll answer for you."
She hit the speaker button, and Raines' voice came through, "Lisbeth, are you alright? You're not at
Magnolia Heights? The butler told me you were taken to the hospital by an ambulance yesterday?"
"I'm fine now and at Mossy Rock Retreat with Beverley and Aurelia and Beverley," Lisbeth replied.
"I'll come by later," Raines said.
Beverley chimed in from the side, "Raines, we're having a pajama party here, and it's ladies only. Don't
worry about Lisbeth. She's just having some cramps. The doctor did an exam. It's just a gynecological
inflammation. She'll be right as rain after a course of antibiotics."
"Alright, I won't disturb you. Have fun," Raines ended the call.
Beverley gave Lisbeth a thumbs-up, "All sorted, Lisbeth."
"Thanks," Lisbeth said gratefully.
As an orphan without family or friends, Lisbeth had lived in darkness and cold her whole life. Raines
was the only one who had shown her kindness and love.
And now in Elysium with the Stirling family, she was experiencing a vibrancy and prosperity she'd never
known. She seemed to step into a world as wondrous as a fairy tale.
The Stirling family led rich lives, full of gatherings and celebrations.
Wealthy families, after all, had the time and money to enjoy a luxurious life to the fullest.
After a reflective pause, Beverley spoke up, "Aurelia, how's the revision of the family charter going?
None of the elders putting up a fight, I hope?"
Aurelia's laughter was light, "Henry came by. Leopold tried to charm him into agreement with his silver
tongue. Whether it worked, I can't say." Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Beverley stuck out her tongue playfully, "Henry's as notorious as Chad, with a string of lovers and a trail
of illegitimate children. He's bound to oppose the changes."
Aurelia responded, "It doesn't matter if the elders agree or not, the charter needs updating. If not now,
then in the future."
