Rigged tarot ritual sparks a quiet, decisive exit.
Ninety-nine tarot draws have yielded nothing but ill omens under the Winslow marriage rule, and the hundredth looks no different until the protagonist catches Clara Winslow stripping every Lovers card from the deck and declaring he will never pull a favorable sign. The revelation lays bare a cruel, premeditated sham, confirming that affection was never part of the bargain. With the deception exposed, the cards are tossed aside and a call goes out to accept the long-standing arrangement with the Shaw family instead.
