Chapter 506

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 empty–handed. It wasn’t until a time later that someone declared that, actually, Lady South

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

anticipated that today’s Crera would be so prosperous, with such excellent living conditions…”

Keira nodded.

She asked, “Is there more?”

At the very least, she clarified one thing: the South family’s influence was enormous, and it was indeed built on a strong financial foundation; otherwise, they couldn’t 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.

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!
