The Lopez family was in a hurrah because of Cora.

Thanks to her, the Lopez family had become the protagonist of the classic rags to riches story. They had accelerated their social status from being a third-rate family to one of the most powerful families in North Hampton, even surpassing the Garrison clan in Oakland City.

It was a great cause for celebration.

Zoey looked at Cora and asked, “Grandma, I have a question!”

Cora glanced at her granddaughter. She knew what was on the latter’s mind. “I suppose you’re curious as to why I’d kept myself under the radar all these years?”

“Yes.” Zoey nodded.

“The Four Great Families had signed a secret agreement, stipulating that any members of the Four Great Families shall not live among the commoners. I broke the rule on my own accord, and I was actually seized by those people the year I vanished.

“The Great Family of Westford was afraid that I might be forgoing the agreement and seized me. However, there was nothing they could do to me because of my status,” Cora explained.

Hit by a pang of realization, Zoey exclaimed, “Grandma, since you’re back, does that mean that the agreement is technically void?”

“Precisely. The agreement between the Four Great Families has been voided. That means we are free, and nothing will happen to us even if we come out of the shadows.” Cora confirmed Zoey’s guess.

Even though Zoey did not know the reasons behind the broken agreement, she had an inkling that something major was about to happen.
