Chapter 560
“A gift?” Renee stopped and turned around, looking at the old man with interest.
How lucky could she be today, to receive a gift from such a legendary person?!
She glanced at the old man’s stall. Any one of those items was either priceless or incredibly rare-she
could easily make a fortune selling any of them!
But the old man had no intention to give her any of his wares. Instead, it was something that he carried
with him.
“Take this silk handkerchief, young lady. One day, it will give you much- needed guidance.”
The old man then stretched out his branch-like arm towards her, handing her a finely crafted silk
handkerchief.
“This silk handkerchief…” Renee was astonished when she saw the pattern on the handkerchief.
There was a phoenix and some red spider lilies embroidered on the handkerchief, it looked similar to
the pattern she saw on the quilt her grandmother had left her all those years ago. Perhaps it might
even have been made by the same person. It’s a shame that the quilt was destroyed in that fire…
Just as she was about to ask the old man where he got this silk handkerchief, a woman with her head
covered in blood rushed towards her and clung onto her leg.
“Help me!” she shouted. “Please help me, Miss! Those people are going to stab me to death…”
The woman looked to be in her early thirties. She continued to cry, “I can’t die right now, Miss! If I die,
then my son would become an orphan! Please, Miss! You must help me!”
Renee initially had no intention to get involved, but when she heard that this woman was a fellow
mother who was bringing up her child alone, she was suddenly moved by compassion. She helped the
lady up to her feet and asked, “What happened to you? Explain it to me slowly.”
“I… I came to the antique market to sell something. But these people here are barbarians with no
regard for the law. When they saw a weak, helpless woman like me, they immediately tried to rob
me…”
As she got to this point, held the bag in her arms even more tightly, before adding, “What I have here is
a family heirloom. If my son wasn’t ill and didn’t require a lot of money for treatment, I would never even
think of selling this, not even to save my own skin! But those thugs had the audacity to rob it from me.
They even threatened me with knives! They’re horrible people, Miss! Please, you must help me!”
Renee looked her up and down and her eyes gleamed with determination. She calmly asserted, “Calm
down. Although I know that Water Dock is a lawless land, since you chose to ask me for help, then I’ll
deal with this fair and square. I won’t disappoint you.”
The woman was instantly relieved, so much so that her tears even dried up. She hurriedly replied,
“Thank you! Thank you very much, Miss!”
Then, about ten big burly men swarmed in their direction. They were all wearing black suits and each
was holding a huge club. They seemed to be searching through the crowded antique market for
someone.
“Where is she?! That b*tch is slippery like an eel! How did she vanish so quickly like that?!”
“Leave no stone unturned, boys! Once you find her, make sure she pays with blood!”
Seeing this, the woman instantly took cover behind Renee, quivering in fear.
“Don’t be afraid,” Renee assured her, tilting her head towards the woman. “I told you that I’ll help you.
They won’t dare to do anything with me here!”
In no time at all, those men noticed Renee. They rushed up towards her with bloodthirsty eyes and
yelled, “If you don’t want to die then don’t butt into this! Get out of the way!”
Without a change in her expression or budging for an inch, Renee opposed them. “You think I’ll move
just because you say so? Who the hell do you think you are?!”
Her fierce reaction not only stunned the men in black suits. Even the sellers and onlookers around her
were astounded.
A tall man in a black suit who stood in front of the others viciously roared back, “Is this your first time in
Water Dock? Don’t you know who you’re talking to?!
“I…”
