Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

What? Olivia was stunned when she saw the message. Their parents had their first meeting the previous day and they wanted to plan a wedding already? Do people still do that in the modern day? She replied to Brenda as thoughts went through her mind.

"Mom, people don't do this anymore. Is it really necessary?" When Brenda saw the message, she called immediately.

"What do you mean? Everyone has to have their birth dates checked before getting married. You have to do it as well." Olivia curled her lips when she heard her mother's voice. "Isn't this something that was done in the past? It was only needed because arranged marriage was the norm. What if our fates clash and our birth dates are not meant for each other? Does it mean that we will have to break up?" Brenda answered without any doubt, "That's right." Olivia's expression darkened.

"I am not giving you his birth date." Brenda replied, "Silly girl, do you think you are my only source? Do you know how desperate Sam's mother wishes for you to be her daughter-in-law? I am sure she will pass it toimmediately if I ask her." "Okay, then go ahead. Ask her. I couldn't care less if our birth dates clash with each other. I believe fate is in my hands." Brenda was frustrated after hearing Olivia's statement. She started lecturing her over the phone. Olivia got really annoyed towards the end and decided to hang up without any warning.

Then, she stood up slowly with her phone in one hand, and pulled herself up from the bed with her other hand. Then, she went back to bed to rest.

Brenda wasn't finished with her lecture but Ollie had already hung up the phone. Her face twisted out of anger and she started complaining to her husband.

"Look at this girl; she must have been spoiled by you. She's such a rude girl. She refused to giveSam's birth date. Nobody gets married without having the dates checked first!" Karl, who sat facing her, cleared his throat and said, "We didn't when we got married." Brenda blinked her eyes in disagreement and said, "Who said so?" "Did we?" He appeared slightly surprised. He wasn't aware that they did it before they got married. "I remember you saying we didn't do it." Her expression was gloomy. She put her phone on the table next to her.

"My mother went to check our dates behind our backs. I refused to do it back then, just like Ollie, but my mother took our dates and cback to tellthat we were a match made in heaven." He was obviously very happy when he heard that they were 'match made in heaven'. He asked, "Match made in heaven? If that was not the case, would you have married me?" "What's the point of asking? It's history." She glared at him, and her tone suddenly becstern. "Are you looking for trouble? Back then, I said that I would still marry you even if our birth dates clashes." Karl explained immediately, "Brenda, don't be angry. I was just curious. We didn't want to do it either when we were younger. Let's try to be understanding. Since Ollie doesn't want to, we should respect her." "Well, we did check our dates eventually. She might not want to givethe dates, but as a mother I should help her." She finally understood why her mother insisted on checking their dates. Things that were not so important when she was younger becmore important as she got older.

There were certain things that she valued when she was younger but no longer did as she got older.

She never understood her mother constantly interfering in her relationships in the past. She felt like her mother was overstepping her boundaries.

Now that she was a mother herself, she could understand.

She was worried about Ollie's future. She also understood that she had to respect her daughter's privacy. Hence, she decided to check it out for Ollie without telling her. Then, Brenda called Emma.

The checking of the dates was a fast process. It could be done easily with a fortune teller. This was considered superstitious behavior, which was a belief that many in the younger generation didn't believe in.

However, certain superstitious customs were still popular among the people.

Brenda and Emma went to look for the fortune teller together.

"My neighbors toldthat this fortune teller was accurate in the calculation of birth dates. We should ask him to check for Ollie and Sam, and get him to pick an auspicious date for their wedding." Emma and Brenda smiled as they walked along the alley. She then pointed to the front and said, "We are almost there." It was a small house at the end of the long alley. The wooden door was ajar. A man was sitting inside, checking dates for a couple. After the pair had left, it was Emma and Brenda's turn. The man's assistant spoke after they sat in front of the fortune-teller.

"What do you two ladies want to do?" Emma took out her son's birth date and handed it over. "We are here to calculate the birth dates for the marriage of our children." Brenda followed and handed over Ollie's birth date immediately.

The assistant took it from the ladies and glanced at it before handing it over to his master.

For sreason, Brenda started getting nervous and crossed her hands tightly. When Emma noticed her tensed posture, she couldn't help but laugh. She comforted, "Don't be nervous. Ollie and Sam will definitely be well matched!" "Alright."

The fortune-teller took a look at the birth tand hour of the couple, then closed his eyes and began to count silently. The surroundings were so quiet that Brenda could almost hear her heart beat. As the fortune-teller was counting, she had a bad premonition all of a sudden.

Brenda was burning with anxiety as she waited. Just as she was about to stand up and inform them that she was no longer interested in checking their dates, the fortune-teller opened his eyes. Then, he looked at the two of them and slowly opened his mouth. "Is this for marriage?" Emma nodded immediately, "Yes, Master. What do you think if they were to get married? Are they a match made in heaven?" The fortune teller did not speak. He glanced at Brenda, which made her even more nervous.

Judging by the expression on his face, she had a feeling that the results might not be what she had hoped for. She remained quiet as she was afraid of the outcome.

Emma asked after a moment of hesitation, "Master? May I know the result?" "I don't think marriage is a good idea. Their fates clash. They are not suited for each other. They will part ways if they were to get married." The fortune-teller's message was clear. There was no room for any compromise.

Emma and Brenda were stunned. They remained quiet for a long time.

"M-Master, are you sure? The two of them are very attracted to each other. Why are they not suited? Could it be that the timing is wrong?" X
