The only time where i read on the Phenex family wanting to send Ravel to Issei's side is in Volume 12, Life -3.

[Ruval then says it. “Our family also wanted Ravel to become Sekiryutei-kun’s servant and possibly send her off to him if we could have.” “Yes. I understand that.” Ise-kun didn’t notice it, but the intention of the house of Phenex could be understood from many perspectives.]
