Chapter 894
“Lady Valor, I truly didn’t know your identity. Otherwise, I would never have dared to offend you! We know we were wrong. Please, forgive us this timet
“The reason we swapped Cassian with Felipe was because of necessity–Cassian’s status is too low to be with you. I only thought it was for the greater good, which is why I suggested replacing him with Felipe.
“Although it went against your wishes, we were only trying to help. Felipe and Cassian are both from the Cherry family, so no matter who you choose, we’re all family. Any disagreements or misunderstandings can be sorted out–don’t you agree?”
Mack was still trying to justify himself, hoping that a few flattering words would make Raven let them off the hook.
Raven’s eyes narrowed, her tone growing sharper. “Cassian is my fiancé, What right does the Cherry family have to look down on him??
“Cassian has no blood relation to you; he’s not even part of the Cherry family, and you certainly don’t deserve to make those judgments*
“No… no!” Mack took a step forward, trying to argue, but was swiftly kicked back by Raven, sending him stumbling.
With a thud, Mack was sent sprawling, his body unable to withstand the force. He struggled on the ground for several moments, unable to rise.
“And one more thing,” Raven’s voice was cold and unwavering, “Cassian has no ties to the Cherry family. If I ever find you trying to exploit him again, show no mercy.”
The Cherry family members froze, their eyes wide with terror, faces drained of color.
Nearby, Dangelo’s face turned ashen, his mind blank with shock. He thought, ‘I never imagined Raven had such deep connections. If I had known, I never would have burned my bridges like this, leaving myself no way out!’
‘Who could have imagined that the plainly dressed Raven was Lady Valor of Cloudshadow Sect?‘
‘If she’s Lady Valor, why didn’t she just return to Forreb openly? Why go to such lengths to hide her identity and sneak across?”
‘No matter how much I regret it now, it’s too late. I missed my best chance, and there’s no way to undo it.’
“Raven, he’s my grandfather. How can you treat him like this?” Felipe rushed to Mack’s side, flustered and desperate. “I’ve already apologized. Why can’t you forgive me?”
“Don’t tell me you didn’t like me before, or want to marry me?” His voice was a mix of anger and hurt.
“If you didn’t want to marry me, then why would you have sent Dangelo to bring me a gift? Why has Julio arranged a dinner with me?”
“You still care about me, so why won’t you admit it? Why hurt my family?”
Felipe thought, ‘I grew up spoiled by Mack and Leonard, and even though I’m ordinary, I’ve always believed I was destined for greatness–just held back by my humble origins.”
‘Now, I finally have the chance to rise above my class. There’s no way I’m letting this slip away.
‘Sure, Cassian may be a little more handsome, but so what? He’s nothing more than a lowborn man, unworthy of even being a son–in–law‘
‘Raven is just making things hard because she’s frustrated that she can’t have me. I’ve already apologized and offered her an out. What’s she still holding
onto?‘
Raven watched him, cold and detached, as he remained lost in his world, almost mad with delusion.
“Care about you? What right do you have?”
