Chapter 334 Suggesting Ms. Quinnell Not Stay in Kingbourne
Ronan initially wanted to say Wynter came from “a small place” with limited vision. Yet, seeing her composed demeanor made him doubt himself. No matter what anyone said, whoever Fabian acknowledged
was the one!
Ronan reassured himself with this thought. Wynter still smiled lightly with a distinguished demeanor. She didn’t bother chatting with Fabian.
“We’re here.” Ronan glanced around and noted, “We really do have to
queue.”
Indeed, there was a huge crowd. People who had appointments were lined up from inside to outside. The store’s antique facade displayed
a dazzling array of antiques.
A person holding a sl*p of paper exited jubilantly, beaming. “The
fortune teller said if I drink this prescription, I’ll surely have a son!”
“The fortune teller knew you wanted a son?!” someone nearby
exclaimed in surprise.
“That’s right! The divination was so accurate. I’m thoroughly
convinced!”
Hearing this, those in line grew even more anxious. Just then, two
individuals dressed like scholars came out and announced loudly..
“Today’s fortune-telling slots are full. We are sorry for any
inconvenience caused. Please come back another day if you’re distressed.”

“Distressed?” Wynter’s eyes flicked up when she heard this.
Worried that Wynter was pondering too deeply, Ronan whispered, ” Ms. Quinnell, don’t worry. We’ll use another entrance and wait for the
crowd to disperse.”
Those who had queued for so long were hardly willing to disperse.
However, it was Darrell’s rule.
After 2:00 p.m., he no longer told fortunes but only allowed item requests. These were items that ordinary people could hardly afford as they often cost tens of thousands of dollars.
As the scholars said, people had no choice but to plan to return another day. Some even sought scalpers to queue for them, each
relying on their means.
Once most people had left, Ronan approached, handing the scholars some money. One scholar smiled. Sir Rathbone, that’s very kind of you. Please come inside.”
Ronan looked back at Wynter.
One of the scholars frowned. “Who is this?”
“Oh, she’s a relative’s child. She’s here to study in Kingbourne,” Ronan quickly improvised. Fabian had instructed him not to disclose Wynter’s background.
Wynter was even smarter, quickly saying. “Uncle, can you ask the master if I can get into Sacred Heart Medical University later?”
Ronan paused with the beads in his hand, looked back at Wynter as if
she were some sort of specter, and then nodded three times. “How

forgetful of me! Of course, I’ll ask!”
Wynter’s reaction was perhaps too quick for him. Her way of
addressing him as “uncle” caught him off guard.
The unsuspecting scholar led them inside.
Wolf gazed up at Wynter. Wynter raised an eyebrow. “Do you like this
place?”
Wynter uttered an “Oh” as her smile grew wider. She thought to herself that this probably wasn’t a good place.
Thinking she was complimenting him, Wolf stood even straighter.
They walked past a room divider to see people drinking tea. They were about 70 years old and were adorned with white beards and robes. They were sitting around steadily.
Behind them was a wall of antiques, including fan screens, lanterns,
and white porcelain jade vases.
“Sit,” an elder gestured.
Ronan immediately laughed. “Did you foresee my visit?”
The elder was Darrell. He poured a cup of tea. “I am fated with those
in distress.”
Somewhat excited, Ronan quickly introduced, “This is my niece from
out of town. She’s just arrived in Kingbourne. Could you look at her
face?”
Darrell pushed the tea aside and smiled quietly.
Ronan knew the rules. “My niece also wants to request an item.”

The elder then turned his gaze to Wynter. After a long pause, his expression suddenly darkened. He watched her intently as his voice changed slightly when he spoke.
“The female in distress has too strong a presence. It harms herself and others. For her family’s sake, she shouldn’t stay in Kingbourne.”
