Favored Empress Brings Chaos and Destruction (Book 1)

Page 174

Beatrix chose to buy the blue and green dress! Prince Andrew insisted to pay for the blue dress while Prince Anders insisted to pay for the green dress but in the end, she paid for the two dresses as she joke with them.

"My Father always says: 'Do not let another man pay for your things as long as you belong under my turf! The General's Mansion is not poor!'" She grinned after mimicking her father's exact words and booming voice. "So how can I, a good and proud daughter, let him down, eh?"

She checked from shop to shop. She bought two earrings, two necklaces, two rings, two bracelets, two shoes, and two hair accessories because she likes the two things and the two princes had different opinions... In the end, she paid for all the things that caught her interest and asked the store manager to deliver her purchased items to the imperial palace.

Why complicate things when Father General has the money?

She happily thought as she remember her Father's words that she could shop till she drop and he will take care of it but she will never make the General's Mansion go bankrupt! She only purchased things that she needs to uphold the face and dignity of the Lamoreaux and Marvel families. That is why she asked the two princes if the two things that she likes suit her well so she won't buy useless things and end up spending her Father's sweat and blood unnecessarily!

"Why didn't you buy anything?" Beatrix asked the two princes who are only following her, not looking or checking for anything.

"Nothing caught my eye so far." Prince Anders immediately replied.

"I have my specification." Prince Andrew explained and she immediately understood. If the thing is not exactly according to his specification, Prince Andrew will never look at it, purchase it, accept it, or use it.

It was already dusk when the three tall and attractive figures passed by a mysterious man sitting inside a fortune teller's tent.

"You three people... Come here!" The man called the three of them, beckoning them to approach him and enter his tent.

The three looked at each other in surprise that there is someone who dared to talk to them casually and even ordered them to go to him!

"Do you mean... Us?" Beatrix asked the man while pointing to herself and the two princes.

"Yes, come here as I can see you three people have chaotic futures." The mysterious man told them.

Beatrix seems to be drawn to the mysterious man and was about to come forward when Prince Andrew stopped her and flashed her a look of 'It is just a fraud'. She smiled and convinced him to allow her.

"But it seems fun!" She insisted then looked at the other prince for support. "What do you think, Anders?"

"Sure! After you, My Lady!" Prince Anders replied smoothly, indicating that he will support whatever she wants and he will be at her back all the time.

This blatant support earned a sharp and dangerous glare from Prince Andrew but Prince Anders ignored his imperial brother's murderous stare with a simple shrug! Beatrix and Prince Anders excitedly entered the open tent while Prince Andrew chose to follow because she wants to go and so he will follow... Beatrix sat in front of the mysterious man and excitedly asked.

"Okay, what is my future?" She immediately asked.

"What do you want to know?" The man replied.

"Aren't you the fortune teller? Why can't you predict what she wants to know?" Prince Andrew coldly and rudely replied on her behalf but Beatrix gave him a look of 'Do not be rude, okay?'

"I want to know if my life in the future will be a happy one." She excitedly asked which immediately caught the interest of the other two young men beside her.

The mysterious man shuffled his cards and made her pick three different cards. He revealed the cards that she picked and begin his interpretation.

"The cards say that you will marry twice." The mysterious man told her seriously.

"Preposterous!" The two princes immediately interjected, unable to contain their anger upon hearing that Beatrix will marry twice!

Beatrix gave them a look of 'Where are your manners? Can't you let him finish? I am curious here!!!' Next, she urged the mysterious man to proceed.

"Your first marriage will be a happy and harmonious one while the second marriage will be a mixture of bliss and challenges." The mysterious man emphasized the word 'challenges'.

"You said that I will marry twice, why?" She curiously asked, feeling very worried.

The man shuffled the cards again and let her pick another three cards then he interpreted again.

"The cards say that your first husband will die tragically giving way to your second marriage." The mysterious man told her nonchalantly.
