Gina quickly assured them, "Don't worry, Luna. Anyone who disrespects you is disrespecting us—I will definitely avenge you."

Jade studied Gina just then. "Does your family have that much influence? The bastard was quite pompous and probably was well-connected himself."

Gina quickly smiled, not one to be put down. "We do have some influence here in Riverton. Oh, and I forgot—Helen here is partnered with the Turnbull family. Y'know, one of the top families in the capital."

"Of course." Gina quickly nodded, although she had also heard that it was a family heirloom for the Fieldens.

"That's why I've come to Riverton—to get the drakeroot and cure Luna's illness," Jade said nonchalantly. "I would also be checking if you Northstream Lanes have what it takes to be received back to the main family."
