I had heard about the Pierce family’s history from Grandma Rose.

When the Pierce family first arrived in Nocturnia, things weren’t easy for them. Their fortunes had completely turned around only after David had married the eldest daughter of the Cross family.

So it was only natural that Celine had never lived here.
