Felipe found it hard to believe that Raven had a
Soon, though, Julio and Dangelo would arrive–and when they did, Felipe planned to confront Raven head–on and expose Raven’s lies right in front of
them.
Just then, the heads of the major families in Frihamen City
ity entered the room, each wearing a warm smile and carrying lavish gifts. As they stepped
inside, they eagerly greeted Mack and the others.
“Long time no see, Mack!”
“Congratulations! Congratulations!”
“Your grandson is much more impressive than we imagined. All of us are truly impressed!”
“Please accept these modest gifts, Mack. We hope the Cherry family will continue to support us in the future!”
Mack could not help but feel a surge of pride and satisfaction as he watched those who once looked down on him speak to him with such humility now.
Mack accepted the expensive gifts and basked in the attention of these powerful figures. After all, this was a kind of respect and admiration he had never even dared to dream of before.
‘Our family is finally going to make a comeback!‘ Mack thought happily. ‘With the formidable Cloudshadow Sect backing our family, we are destined to rise as the most powerful household in all of Frihamen City.’
This was just the start–word of the possible marriage alliance had only recently begun to spread.
The Cherry family and the Cloudshadow Sect had not even formalized their ties, yet others were already falling over themselves to curry favor with the Cherry family. If Felipe were to officially marry the Lady Valor, the Cherry family’s status would surely rise even higher.
Felipe was baffled. He did not understand why the same arrogant family heads who once ignored them were now acting so humble. He turned to Mack, disbelief written all over his face. “Grandpa… what’s going on?”
These were the very family heads who had once ignored them completely–now they queued up with extravagant gifts in hand.
And just as Felipe’s gaze landed on the mountain of presents on the coffee table, still trying to make sense of it all, Julio and Dangelo caught sight of Raven in the crowd.
“Raven?” Dangelo stumbled forward a few steps, pointing at Raven in disbelief. “Weren’t you taken away by one of the executives fr Sect? How could you be standing here, untouched and unharmed?”
e Cloudshadow
Once Dangelo and Julio found out Raven had been taken by an executive from the Cloudshadow Sect, they dropped any thoughts of befriending her. After all, anyone who offended someone from the Cloudshadow Sect never ended up well.
Being taken by an executive meant Raven’s fate was sealed. Even if she survived, she would spend the rest of her life crippled, with no hope of ever rising again.
Yet Raven stood there, not only unharmed but completely at ease–clearly not a prisoner in any sense.
Julio rubbed his chin thoughtfully, then a possibility struck him. “Wait… could it be that Lady Valor spared Raven because of Raven’s connection to Mr. Lysander?”
“Impossible!” Dangelo immediately shook his head. “If Lady Valor truly has her sights set on Mr. Lysander and intends to marry him, there’s no way she’d let that girl off so easily.”
Mack’s brow furrowed, and he quickly raised his voice to correct them. “Mind your words! Lady Valor is interested in my grandson, Felipe!

“Not long ago, representatives from the Cloudshadow Sect sent us congratulatory gifts. Soon, we will be discussing the details of the marriage. The pod about to enter into a marriage alliance with the Cloudshadow Sect is my grandson, Felipel Don’t get it wrong!”
His words left everyone in the room stunned.
Of them all, Felipe was the most shocked.
He was fully aware of the immense power the Cloudshadow Sect wielded.
Is Grandpa serious? Lady Valor wants to marry me? That’s got to be a mistake,‘ Felipe thought, dumbfounded.
