It's rare to find a family that doesn't have internal struggles. Even close relatives can turn against each other for Elora replied, "During a business trip, I heard the Farrell family in Jensburg is having major issues. The previous matriarch's descendants and the current matriarch are fighting over control of the family. Seven say the new matriarch killed the old one. Who knows what's true? But it's a big deal, and people are talking." Mrs. Ormond sighed, "We shouldn't worry about other families. Our own family must stay united. We can't let division tear us apart.

Since there aren't many men in our family, we must stick together. If we fight among ourselves, our enemies will sit back and watch us fall apart. They won't have to do anything, just wait for us to destroy each other." Elora agreed, "Mom, I know. My sisters and I are close, and they respectas the eldest. Even our uncles and aunts are reasonable people.
When we marry, we'll choose good men, not the kind who just want our family's wealth. We won't let anyone cbetween us and cause us to fight." Elora was a seasoned businesswoman, running a large company. She had been in the industry for years and was always rational. Her younger sister and cousin were also practical, not easily swayed by emotions. "Good, thinking like that puts us at ease. Everyone trusts and relies on you," Mrs. Ormond said with satisfaction, proud of Elora's leadership.
But Mrs. Ormond worried about finding a suitable husband for Elora. "You're so exceptional that I don't know who would be worthy of you. There's no one in our city good enough. I don't want you to marry far away, but I also don't see any strong men willing to marry into our family. I'm so concerned about your future." Elora took a sip of water that Joly had poured for her and smiled. "Mom, I've told you before, I'm not in a hurry. I'll let fate take its course. When the tis right, I'll find a good man. If I don't, then I won't marry and you can take care offorever." Mrs. Ormond replied, "It's not about us supporting you. Your parents will grow old and won't be around forever. Your brothers and sisters will marry and have their own lives, and you'll be left alone. It's lonely without a companion. Marriage is about having someone to talk to and grow old with." Elora, unfazed, said, "When my brothers and sisters have children, I'll treat them like my own and build strong bonds. When I'm old, they'll be there for me, and when I die, they'll handle my funeral.
