Marcus Monroe, however, considered the situation before speaking. "From what I know, ever since Nora Lowell met Ms. Lowell and visited the Lowell Family, she's been putting in a lot of effort. You don't need me to tell you her goal—it's obviously to find a powerful backer. But I've also heard that while the Lowell Family has acknowledged her as a distant relative, Frederick Lowell isn't close to her. He seems to be keeping her at arm's length. Even Ms. Lowell, who was fairly kind to her before, has barely seen her lately. The reason is most likely the conflict you had with her. This shows they still value you a great deal."
