Chapter 957

For the powerful clans, a person’s identity and status were paramount.

This was particularly crucial when selecting spouses for their descendants; they sought partners from families of similar stature, preferably forming alliances through marriage for business reasons.

Even though the wealthy could choose their lovers casually, when it came to selecting wives, they exclusively targeted women from affluent families.

The greatest taboo for these clans was associating with those at the societal bottom, as it was considered a stain on their prestigious lineage.

The story of Domenic’s parents had always been shrouded in secrecy by Jordan.

Revealing that his firstborn had married a woman of humble origins would have brought shame upon the Walsh family.

Thus, Jordan had obscured the truth about Domenic’s mother, attributing the couple’s death to an unfortunate accident.

This secret eventually turned into gossip among the elite.
