"Wait, are we even talking about the same people?" I asked, my suspicion growing.
Cassandra squinted her eyes. "What, you got more fiancées?"
"Urgh, that's not what I meant." I gritted my teeth at her teasing. "According to the records I read, shield families traditionally married their children to each other in each generation. And I was probably the candidate for it this time. As for the fiancée candidate, it is probably the Carmine girl we met in the city. She's from the Viremont family after all. As for the House Fenvar, my mother is from them. So, the fiancée candidate probably can't be from them."
Cassandra listened intently. She raised her brows when I mentioned the Carmine girl, but didn't say anything. She was also surprised to hear that Mother was from the Fenvar. Well, I was, too, even more than her. But it made sense, my water affinity probably came from her.
