True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2121

Sylvia was unable to calm down for a long time as she tried to process what she just heard. She wasn't sure how to take in the information, so she just nodded and said, "I won't ask too many questions."

Claudia smiled and said, "Actually, he's changed a lot over the years. Kendrix became famous quite young, and what's written about him in the papers only glorifies him. Actually, I know he's just a normal person who needs love as well. If you're in love with him just because of his public persona which is bright and nice, I'll have to discourage you from pursuing him."

"No way!" Sylvia shook her head. "I'm not in love with him because of what I heard of him. I have feelings for him from the first time we met. It's kind of like love at first sight."

"Sebastian is the same for me." Claudia smiled. "Love at first sight is very common."

Sylvia was surprised before she shared a look with Claudia and smiled.

"What are you guys smiling about?"

At that moment, Lowell walked over with tickets in hand. He spotted the two girls smiling.

"Oh, nothing much." Sylvia shook her head.

Lowell didn't press for answers as he figured it was just a random secret the girls shared between themselves.

"I've bought the entry tickets and some candles to light at the altar. We'll just light them in front of the pews."

"Oh, thanks! How much are they? I'll pay you back later," Claudia said.

"No need," Lowell replied.

"No, the candles cost money, and it's only sincere if you buy it yourself. You can't have others do it for you," Claudia said.

"Is that so?" Lowell was taken aback. "I didn't know there's such thing."

"It's all right, no time like the present to learn things. Give me your WhatsApp, I'll contact you to transfer the money to you."

"All right."

Lowell gave Claudia his WhatsApp and she quickly transferred the money to him. Lowell didn't stop her further.

At the same time, Sylvia transferred him money as well.

"Sylvia, why'd you give me money too?" Lowell said as he glanced at her.

Sylvia replied, "Claudia is right. I believe what she said too. We should get the candles for ourselves to prove the sincerity of our prayers, since we are all praying for different things."

"However, we're a family." Lowell was a little exasperated.

"That's why we didn't give you the money for the tickets." Claudia explained.

Lowell had no comeback to that.

The three of them lit the candles and sincerely said their prayers in front of the pews.

Sylvia closed her eyes and prayed. She hoped that Kendrix would have a smooth life going forward.

That was the only thing she wished for.

On the other hand, Lowell only wished for one thing as well. He wished for Celeste and Gary to get back together.

No one knew what Claudia was praying for.

Claudia closed her eyes and prayed for a very long time.

Sylvia opened her eyes to find that Claudia had her eyes closed. A couple of minutes passed before Claudia finished praying.

She looked very solemn, and there was no trace of the jovial mood she had earlier on her face.

Her serious attitude made Sylvia hesitate to ask her about her prayer.

After they lit the candles, they went around the church grounds, taking in the view.

"Let's check out the backyard." Sylvia suggested.

"Sounds good." Claudia nodded her head.

She knew what Sylvia was up to. Sylvia probably wanted to check out where Kendrix used to study long ago.

Claudia smiled and led the way.

They walked along a paved road past a pine forest. After that, they ascended a long flight of stone steps.
