Chapter 53

The two of them nodded their heads repeatedly. Carlisle leaned in and whispered, “To be honest, my

grandfather is a psychic. I’ve been exposed to it since I was young, so I’ve managed to pick up some

physiognomy. When I saw Lily’s dark forehead, I predicted that she would encounter danger soon!”

He knew that Sean would ask him this question, so he came up with a perfect explanation.

Sean grew up in a big city, so he was rather skeptical of Carlisle’s words. He turned toward Lily and

asked,

“Do you believe him?”

Lily nodded. “I do. The psychics in our village are extremely reputable!”

Sean picked up his beer and took a big gulp. He said with a grin, “Then, can you predict if I’ll be able to

find a girlfriend in university?”

Carlisle scanned Sean’s face, picked up his palm, and studied it carefully.

After a while, he closed his eyes and began counting his finger joints.

Seeing Carlisle so serious, Sean couldn’t help but feel nervous.

After a brief moment, Carlisle finally opened his eyes and exclaimed, “Oh my!”

Sean looked at him with wide eyes. “What is it?”

see a great love life ahead of you. In the next few years, there will be lots of women pursuing you!”

Carlisle said as he looked at Sean with an envious gaze.

“Really?”

Sean excitedly took a big gulp of his beer.

Carlisle then pursed his lips and said, “However, none of them will genuinely like you, and they will just

be after your money!”

Sean’s excitement instantly withered. “Looks like I’m destined to be single in university!”

Carlisle glanced at Lily. He then leaned back in his chair and chuckled. “There’s an opportunity right in

front of you. If you can grasp it, you might just be able to turn the tide in your favor!”

Sean instantly perked up once again. “So, you’re saying I still have hope for finding true love?”

Carlisle nodded with a smile.

Sean eagerly asked, “Please give me some advice!”

Carlisle smiled as he turned his gaze toward Lily.

Sean followed his gaze, and his face instantly flushed red.

Was Carlisle suggesting that Lily was his true love?

Lily also sensed the suggestion in his tone, making her instantly lower her head in embarrassment.

She deeply believed in fortune–telling.

Otherwise, how else would Carlisle have known she was in danger?

Now that Carlisle was claiming that she and Sean were destined, she believed that it was likely true.

That being said, Lily still wasn’t ready to be in a relationship!

Beep beep!

It

was a message from Christine, asking which private room Carlisle was in.

Carlisle texted her the private room number,

After a while, Christine arrived and knocked on the door,

Sean walked over to open it. The moment he saw Christine, his eyes instantly lit up. “Christine! What

are you doing here in Riverland?”

Christine said with a smile, “I got into Riverland University.”

“I knew you’d make it…”

Sean stepped aside and gestured for her to come in. “Come on in, Christine!”

Christine was dressed in a white short–sleeve shirt paired with white jeans. She had her hair pulled

back

a ponytail, and her youthful face radiated with innocence.

“Carlisle…”

With her cheeks flushed, Christine greeted Carlisle shyly.

Carlisle replied with an awkward smile, “I’ll feel weird if you call me in a shy manner. Please have a

seat!”

Christine took a seat beside Lily. She glanced at the table full of seafood dishes and sighed, “You all

have high dining standards. I don’t think I could ever afford this in my entire life!”

Sean sat down between Carlisle and Lily.
