Grandma Saxon burst out laughing, they had no idea who Phoebe was but she did. "Ohhh that's just hilarious, founding families must marry from each other's houses. What a load of crap."
Still laughing mockingly, she raised her hand and waved at Miranda, "Hello there, founding first family descendant, Miranda Briggs."
Both Robert and Miranda winced and the other elders chuckled. There was no Briggs in the first families of Citrus city, let alone the whole Fog country. The Briggs were new money and had no roots. The secret was discovered too late however as she pretended to be a member of the Dewinton family in order to trick Robert into marriage.
