The Cloudshadow Sect made a grand affair of Raven’s wedding, with banners celebrating the event already displayed on screens across the major malls in Frihamen City.
If it weren’t for Raven and Cassian’s low key nature, even Timothy would have pushed to feature their photos as part of the publicity.
The entire city of Frihamen was buzzing with news of the Lady Valor’s upcoming wedding, and the invited high society families had already propert lavish gifts, arriving early at the hotel where the reception was being held.
Cloudshadow Sect had booked the entire hotel and decorated the lawn outside with exquisite, romantic arrangements.
The heads of the first families to arrive marveled at the rare flowers forming a path on the ground. “The Cloudshadow Sect is taking this wedding very seriously. It looks like the top families in Frihamen City are about to be completely restructured.”
They had initially thought that Mr. Cherry of the Cherry family, a mere son–in–law, would be treated generously for such a grand wedding. But Cloudshadow Sect had begun promoting the wedding a week in advance, using only the finest materials for the decorations.
It was clear that this wasn’t a son–in–law’s wedding; the treatment was far too extravagant.
“I heard the Lady Valor of Cloudshadow Sect fell for Mr. Cherry at first sight. She’s thoroughly pleased with him.”
“But honestly, Mr. Cherry seems quite ordinary. Nothing about him would make anyone fall for him so quickly.”
“Don’t talk nonsense… If someone from Cloudshadow Sect hears you, you’ll be in serious trouble.”
“That’s right, now that Cloudshadow Sect backs the Cherry family, they’re not someone we can afford to cross.”
“I believe the Cherry family will rise through the ranks with their connection to the Cloudshadow Sect. They were once a third–rate family, but with Lady Valor’s clear favor toward Mr. Cherry, they might even manage the Cloudshadow Sect’s operations. If that happens, we’ll all be answering to them.”
“I also heard that early this morning, Cloudshadow Sect sent people to hand out wedding candy from a renowned luxury brand from Ardentía. A box of these candies costs 3 thousand dollars!”
“I know those candies. A box only has ten pieces, and the price is outrageous. Plus, they’re limited edition–only a select few can buy them!”
“Only Cloudshadow Sect could do something like this. Frihamen City has over a million people. Even if each family gets a box, the cost will be 3 million
dollars!”
“By the way, Cloudshadow Sect also sent people to distribute cash gifts on Frihamen City’s busiest shopping streets. I even sent my bodyguards early this morning to grab a few!”
“Look at you, wasting your time with those cash gifts. You should be spending your efforts on getting closer to the Cherry family. Mr. Cherry will surely help us out in the future.”
One of the heads of the families rolled his eyes in disdain.
“That’s 30 thousand dollars a piece for those cash gifts!”
“What did you say?” The previously dismissive head immediately dialed his subordinates. “Get someone over to the commercial street right now–hurry up!”
“I heard the executives of Cloudshadow Sect went to great lengths planning this wedding for the Lady Valor. They came up with numerous elaborate
