Chapter 893
Felipe thought, ‘How did things end up like this? I was about to marry Lady Valor, become the center of attention for all the elites in onelety, o admired by everyone.
‘As long as the ceremony went smoothly, I’d be the son–in–law of Cloudshadow Sect, a man above all others in Frihamien City. No, something wrong There has to be a mistake!‘
Felipe refused to give up. He suddenly lifted his head, struggling to stand up from the ground.
“Even if you are Lady Valor, you still want to marry me! Back at the hotel, I misunderstood your identity and rejected you. You got angry, so you used Cassian as a shield to provoke me–yes, that’s it!”
“I know I was wrong. I didn’t look into your background properly and treated you like a lowborn. But now I know the truth. I’m willing to marry you. You don’t need to use Cassian as a replacement anymore!”
Felipe spoke to himself as though losing his mind.
“We can marry right here, in front of all the p
You’re not lowborn–the Cherry family will accept you!”
At this point, Felipe was still clinging to the dream of becoming the son–in–law of the Cloudshadow Sect.
He thought, ‘As long as I can align myself with Cloudshadow Sect, it doesn’t matter who my fiancée is. Even someone like Raven, whom I’ve always looked down on, if she really is Lady Valor, I’d marry her without hesitation.‘
Raven watched him with cold amusement, a cruel smile tugging at her lips as she observed Felipe’s desperate attempts to salvage his shattered dream.
She had never met anyone with such thick skin before.
Felipe, seeing that Raven hadn’t responded, thought he still had a chance. He stepped closer, extending his left hand toward hers, but before he could touch her, he was struck across the face.
“Slap!”
Felipe’s face was knocked to the side, and he covered his cheek in shock, turning to look at Raven in disbelief.
“Are you crazy? I’m your fiancé!”
“You’ve always liked me, wanted to be with me, right?”
“I know you were trying to get my attention that day at the hotel. But because I didn’t know who you were, we misunders each other, and things
turned out like this.”
“Raven, I’ve liked you all along. I know I was wrong before. Let’s go ahead and get married, and after the wedding, I’ll apologize properly. What do you say?”
“Apologize?” Raven scoffed. “I don’t need your fake apologies. You’re not the one I want to marry, so stop fooling yourself.”
“No… this can’t be!” Felipe shouted in despair. He couldn’t accept it. “You’ve come to the Cherry family to provoke me again and again–didn’t you do that to get my attention? How can you not like me?I don’t believe it!”
“Whatever.” Raven wasn’t interested in entertaining him any longer. “My fiancé is Cassian, and it has always been him, and only him.”
Mack and Leonard both shifted uncomfortably, shrinking back as if trying to make themselves less noticeable. They thought, ‘What do we do now? How could we have never realized Raven was Lady Valor of Cloudshadow Sect? Now that we’ve angered her, the Cherry family is probably facing destruction.
“When I had Timonthy come to the Cherry family to discuss the wedding arrangements, the fiancé was supposed to be Cassian. So why has it suddenly changed to Felipe?” Raven’s gaze locked onto Mack, who was trembling with fear. “Are you going to explain this to me, or not?”

When his name was called, Mack shook uncontrollably, his body rattling as though caught in a storm.
