Old Mrs. Horton said, It was just our private speculation. You see, many people looked through numerous ancient Creran archives, hoping to find such a family with the surname South. Unfortunately, they came up emptyhanded. It wasnt until a time later that someone declared that, actually, Lady South was A member of the royal family from Country Y. She seemed to have committed some error there and was banished to Crera. Keira was startled. Banished This word made it sound like an ancient official who had made a mistake and was exiled to a remote outpost. Old Mrs. Horton said, Back then, Country Y was developing splendidly and very advanced. In my day, I must say, Crera was rather backward and had a poor standard of living. For them, coming to live in Crera was like a form of exile. However, I guess they never 507 Chapter 506 anticipated that todays Crera would be so prosperous, with such excellent living conditions Keira nodded. She asked, Is there more? Old Mrs. Horton shook her head. Thats all I really know. After all, Im not from Crera; I eventually returned to Oceanion to marry. Other than hearing that Lady South died in a huge fire, Im not clear on the details Keira nodded again. She felt her visit today hadnt been in vain. At the very least, she clarified one thing: the South familys influence was enormous, and it was indeed built on a strong financial foundation; otherwise, they couldnt have sustained a person like Lady South. But banished What exactly was that all about? She still needed to investigate further. Moreover, if Lady South had been banished, why had she brought such a large service entourage with her? The luxurious life she led indicated clearly that the South family had not neglected her. 507 Chapter 506 And what about that big fire involving Lady South? Plus, Jodie South also seemed to have hidden her identity, having taken refuge in Oceanion for over twenty years This South family seemed a bit too formidable! Country Y A new clue! Just then, Keira realized something. She quickly looked toward Lewis, and before she could speak, Lewis casually said, Scott Martin is from Country Y Keira immediately recalled the third task assigned to her by the South family: to make Scott Martin fall in love with her and marry him. Her expression turned serious, and she said, Send someone to check on Scott Martins family. Lewis nodded.Sure, Ill have someone look into it. After saying goodbye to old Mrs. Horton, Keira walked out while Lewis took a call, so Keira waited for him in the parking lot 507 Chapter 506 It was during this brief interlude that Jake suddenly appeared before Keira. Keira looked at him, slightly taken aback. Fixing his gaze on her, Jake suddenly said, Do you know that to my uncle, you are just a substitute?! Keira was perplexed. She almost rolled her eyes! What was with Jake? O Without waiting for her to say a word, Jake sneered. I knew you wouldnt believe it, but its the truth! Do you know what his former wife looked like? Shes almost identical to you! Keira didnt know what to say. What was wrong with this man? Jake continued. Doesnt it bother you that he is using you Keira shrugged. Bothered by what? Jake was taken aback. Keira sighed. For someone like me, divorced with a 507 Chapter 506 all. Mr. Horton may be on his second marriage, but at least he has no children. By marrying him, Im the one who benefits. And to tell you the truth, I really like Mr. Horton; hes not just handsome and wellbuilt, but hes also rich and capable of helping me grow my business Even if he has someone else on his mind and sees me as a substitute, I dont mind! Jake was shocked. He looked at Keera. He

was taken aback and seemingly puzzled. Just then, they heard a low chuckle. Keira and Jake turned their heads in unison, only to see Lewis standing not far away, watching them. Jakes face instantly froze, and without saying a word, he turned and left. Keira, however, raised an eyebrow. Lewis got in the car and drove Keira home. Throughout the journey, the smile on Lewiss lips never faded. The two quickly returned to the South residence. 59 507 Chapter 506 As soon as they reached the doorway, they saw a familiar figure standing there it was Ellis. Keira didnt know what to say. 27 She exchanged a glance with Lewis, and both heaved a sigh at the same time. If Mary didnt forgive him, would he never leave? The next day, when Keira woke up, she saw a message from Austin saying that Nara had woken up but refused to acknowledge them, and she had already gone home with Matias. He asked if Keira could come and visit Nara if she had the time. Upon reading the message, Keira sighed softly. She had known this would be the outcome. Nara might be mute and not fond of talking, but she was stubborn and a stickler for principles. Having been coerced into jumping off a building by Austin, how could she possibly forgive such a brother? Since Keira had become friends with Nara, she couldnt just ignore her opinions; thus, Keira got up 507 Chapter 506 and went to visit Nara. As she drove up to the alley where Nara lived, she saw Austins car parked not too far away. He was smoking gloomily inside his car. Upon seeing Keira, he immediately said, Nara wont forgive me. What should I do? Keira said, I dont know. In a way, what Austin had done before to Nara was indeed too much; he was a complete villain. How could Nara possibly forgive him just because she had become his sister and was no longer being bullied by him? Austin, frustrated, scratched his head and said to Keira, Lets go see her together. Keira nodded. The two walked toward the alley. At this very moment. Nara and Matias were helping each other walk as they had just returned home. Motions lar hadnt comnlatalu haalad and he un 507 Chapter 506 hobbling along. Seeing his condition, Nara felt even more guilty. She cursed the fault of the Gills! Jackson had broken Matiass leg. But Jackson dared to do such a thing because he had the backing of Lady Gill and Austin, didnt he?! Naras expression grew colder. As they reached the doorway, they spotted a young man about Naras age waiting for them. As they approached, he immediately ran over, Nara, I heard you offended the Gills Now you cant even find a job and were forced to jump off a building, almost losing your life! Nara looked at the young man in front of her with a hint of softness in her eyes. She immediately took out paper and a pen and wrote, Im fine. You dont have to worry. Matias, who was standing beside her, asked her in a low voice, Whos this? Your boyfriend? You secretly found a boyfriend in college and didnt even tell your brother? 507 Chapter 506 Naras face turned red. The young man was indeed her boyfriend, Gary, but both were quite reserved and restrained, especially since Nara was mute and always felt she didnt deserve him; hence, they had never made it public. Hearing this, Gary immediately nodded at Matias, then turned to Nara. Nara, this is too dangerous. You had such a big incident, but why didnt you tell me beforehand? My family may not be wealthy, but we can still help you. My mother can speak to Lady Gill. How about this? Ill ask my mother to speak on your behalf, and we can definitely get through this! Trust me!
