To those onlookers in Glophia, Norah was perceived as someone with no standing or influence. The Wilson family didn’t even acknowledge her, leaving others to view her as an orphan without any social status. However, Norah had status.

Her original family held quiet influence in Glophia. Once she took the reins of her family and sorted things out, she planned to enhance its reputation. Her lineage was, in fact, comparable to Sean’s.
