597 Chapter 596

….
Keira was slightly stunned when she heard this.

She really hadn’t anticipated that things would progress so smoothly; she looked at Vera.

Vera was staring at her and suddenly laughed. “Do you know I’m not your only competitor?”

Keira frowned. “Could you explain what you mean by ‘competitors’?”

Ever since she became Keera, she had been helping Keera complete the missions assigned by the South family while pushed forward by Matthew.

She didn’t even know the goal of doing all this; she only knew that she could enter the South family to save her mother by doing so.

As she was pondering, Vera laughed. “You don’t know? Didn’t your biological parents tell you?”

Keira was taken aback. “My biological parents?”

Vera raised an eyebrow. “You really don’t know? Ha! That really is something rare.”

Keira said, “Stop beating around the bush and tell me.”

Vera scoffed. “No wonder they say Crera’s Rabbit is useless. So, you really don’t remember anything from before you were five years old.”

Keira was taken aback again. “Before I was five?”

“We both grew up in the South family until we were five. Our biological parents were also from the South family. Afterward, we were sent away from the South family and exiled to other countries. You were sent to Crera, and I was sent to Country F. Then our most loyal servants became our foster parents, raising us and leaving us with a small company worth approximately ten million. Next, it depended on whether we could develop and grow until we were powerful enough to return home.”

While Vera assessed Keira up and down, she said, “You don’t remember anything from before you were five, but your foster parents should have told you about this. Didn’t they mention it at all?”

Keira fell silent for a moment. “My foster parents passed away quite early. And as you know, I’m a useless pawn. the South family stopped contacting me later on.”

Vera scoffed. “Is that so?”

Keira looked back at her. “Or what?”

Vera raised an eyebrow. “I’m just curious. You—the discarded pawn—don’t seem to be that useless now. So, Keera, what exactly happened to you?”

Keira frowned. “Now is the time for me to ask questions, not the other way around.”

Vera then lowered her gaze. “Fine, what else do you want to ask?”

Keira looked at her. “Who are our biological parents?”

Vera scoffed. “Of course, they are from the South family. As it turns out, your parents and mine are cousins. As for who your parents are exactly, I don’t know. After all, all families are in competition, and they send their children out without knowing the destination or even what names the children are given.”

Everyone was in the dark?

And their parents…

Keira suddenly thought of her time in Oceanion. Keera mentioned she was stolen by someone from the South family and then raised by foster parents in Clance.

At that time, Keira thought her sister’s foster parents were the people from the South family who stole her, but now it seemed the foster parents were just servants of the people who stole Keera.

Why did they steal Keera?

Did it have anything to do with their mother, Jodie South?

Keira pondered for a long while before she looked at Vera. “How many South family members have been exiled?”

“Twelve.”

Vera answered promptly. “Everyone uses animal code names. There are twelve of us, and we all want to return home.”

Keira asked, “So, completing the tasks allows us to return home?”

Vera laughed. “It seems you really don’t know anything. I seriously doubt that you’re the real Rabbit! After all, this is our deepest secret!”

She leaned forward. “If you want to go home, you can go back anytime!”

This made Keira’s pupils shrink. “What?”

Vera leaned back, watching Keira. After a long stare, she suddenly laughed. “Rabbit, you’ve forgotten the events from when you were five… Surely, you haven’t forgotten the way home, have you?”

That statement surprised Keira again.

The way home… Did Keera know?!

But she wasn’t Keera…

She tensed her jaw, fearing Vera might notice something, and stared firmly at Vera. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Vera then said, “You’ve forgotten about it? That’s hilarious! All these years, you’ve never been back. Is it because of that? We’ve all been wondering why you, Rabbit, never went home. We thought you had a bad relationship with your parents and didn’t want to see them… But this is really amusing!”

Hearing those words, Keira finally said, “So, where exactly is the South family?”

She could tell from Vera’s words that Vera often went home…

She must know where the South family was!

Keira didn’t want to play games or have her life controlled by the South family; she just wanted to go there and save her mother!

As expected, Vera looked at her. “You want to know, huh? I’ll tell you…”
