Chapter 606 The Origin of the South Family
Keira and Lewis sat in the study of the Martin residence.
Old Mr. Martin had shooed Scott and Erin out of the room and had someone guard the door.
After confirming several times at the doorway that no one would overhear their conversation, old Mr. Martin approached Keira.
Seeing his solemn expression, Keira couldn't help but sit up straight.
Upon noticing her reaction, old Mr. Martin asked, "Do you truly not remember anything about the South family? Vera seems to remember everything. Weren't you all said to have spent time within the South family before age five?"
Keira didn't explain to old Mr. Martin about her sister, not wanting the elderly man to know that he once had another granddaughter who had passed away.
She said, "Well, I had a fever when I was young and forgot everything when I woke up. I only knew I had a Guardian who would send me news of the South family. My foster parents were servants of the South family, and they passed away when I was very young. Moreover, with my mediocre talents, I planned to live an inconspicuous life, so I rarely brought up matters regarding the South family."
Old Mr. Martin's eyes lit up. "So that's how it is."
Keira asked, "Do you know where the South family is? What kind of family is it?"
Old Mr. Martin said, "The South family is a very mysterious force. I only know that they have survived for thousands of years from the records, seemingly disappearing in the flow of history, but in fact, they have always been there."
Keira was slightly taken aback.
Old Mr. Martin continued, "The South family is extremely secretive; they prospered about two thousand-five hundred years ago..."
Two thousand five hundred years ago... that was a long history!
Martin said, "Their family is a matrilineal
