âLarissa, it tums out youâre pregnant. Congratulationsâ
Larissaâs initial reaction was to turn to look at Wendy and demand with a glare. âWere y
you gesturing behind my back? Wendy balled her hands with a lock of innocence. âI didnât do anything!
I already told you Barbaraâs very accurate, and you didnât believe me!â exclaimed Wendy.
âYou wil have a bright future and a happy relationship. The child in your belly wil be the source of your strength, your motivation to push forward, and the compass that points you in the right direction,â said Barbare, not knowing what they were taking about. The filth card was the death card in reverse. âThis card echoes the wheel of fortune. Good luck wil retum to you soon and give you a birthâ At the same time you will reconcile with your old flame, which refers to the man you still leve. You and he will end up together.â
The moment Barbara finished speaking. Larissa got up and left without looking back. They shouted Wendy, and she quickly paid Barbara, then chased after Larissa. âWhat the matter?â asked Wendy.
Larissa snorted and said. âI donât want to stay another moment longer at a scammerâs slice.â
âBarbara isnât a scammert Wendy continued delending Barbara. âEverything she said about me that hadnât happened yet al came into fruition after that! I wouldnât lie to you even if my life depended on ill Besides, I have friends who came for readings here, and they all said sheâs da mn accuâale!â
âShe forms her sentences in a way that she can cover up for herself no matter what. Besides, the people who have gone for readings would definitely think that whatever happened to them was a prophecy. Donât all fortune telers play the same tricks? retorted Larissa.
âThen how do you explain how she knows youâre pregnant? Besides, she doesnât form her sentences the way you say she does. Didnât she say that youâll reconcile with your old flame in the end? You only have two old Ilames, Travis has already died from suicide, which leaves. Kevan. Isnât it very obvious who she means?â
Larissa would never admit to Wendy that she had walked out in panic exactly because Barbara had said that. She would also never admit that she seemed to have become brainwashed by Barbara and thought what Barbara was trying to tell her was that she shouldnât have lett Kevan.
âLari.â Wendy held Larissaâs hand with a sudden look of hesitation. âI was thinking. She licked her lips, making her lipstick later.â Shouldnât you keep the child?â said Wendy Larissa lound it ridiculous. âYou want me to keep this child I donât even know who lathered just because of some gibberish from a random scammer? Wendy, when have you become so weird?â
âIt worries me that Barbara said you made a wrong dec slon,â said Wendy gravely. âBesides, she said that the child will be the source of your strength. So Iâm thinking that itâs not too late to make the right decision.â
Wendyâs steadlast belet in Barbara made Larissa feel very helpless. Larissa didnât want to waste her breath on her anymore and was firm in her own opinion. âI will not keep this child. Even if itâs the wrong decision. I wonât regret it.â She wasnât as reckless as putting herself and her child at risk just because of some scammerâs prophecy, but Wendy was the total opposite of her,
âIf youâre afraid of following in your mumâs footsteps, then let me raise the child after you give birth, Can you? I promise 111 let him grow up happily and healthily,â asked Wendy.
âHow can you guarantee that?â asked Larissa. âWhat il your future husband doesnât agree to raise the child? Are you going to send him back to me? Or just abandon him?
âI wonât have a husband, I never planned to marry, Besides. I already started making plans to adopt a child two years ago.â
