Because they needed the results urgently, the test results came back in only half an hour.
When Holly and old Mr. Martin walked out of the testing room, Holly nodded slightly to Keira.
Keira immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Lewis had thrown the bribed family doctor in front of old Mr. Martin and said, “He admitted it. Vera indeed bribed him.”
Vera sneered. “Mr. Martin, I admit I bribed the family doctor just in case, but the results should be exactly as expected, right? This DNA test was completely unnecessary! The Martin family’s decision to engage in an arranged marriage with the South family was made in recent years, so how could it be that you conveniently found a granddaughter just after your decision? That’s way too coincidental!”
But the next moment, she heard old Mr. Martin announce excitedly, “It’s just that coincidental.”
Vera was stunned.
Old Mr. Martin had already walked up to Keira and taken her hand. With excitement in his eyes and a slight tremble in his hands, he spoke in a choked voice. “Keera, you’re my granddaughter!”
Upon hearing this, Keira sighed slightly.
Her feelings were somewhat complicated.
Vera was right about one thing: how could it be that just as the

Martin family was about to collaborate with the South family, she, as the Martin family’s lost granddaughter, suddenly emerged?
All of this seemed excessively coincidental.
Was all of this just a coincidence?
She thought, “My grandmother is Lady South, who also bears the surname South, as does my mother.
“Could my grandmother have prepared all of this in advance?”
Lady South probably anticipated today’s situation, knowing she would have to cooperate with the Martin family. However, she wouldn’t be able to marry several families at the same time, so a long–term plan was already in place from Lady South’s generation.
Lady South recruited the Martin family to her team by bearing
children.
Keira wondered if her grandmother loved old Mr. Martin.
She doubted it…
Otherwise, why didn’t Lady South stay abroad with old Mr. Martin?
Keira thought, “I don’t know what compelled my grandmother, but after spending half a month with old Mr. Martin, she just vanished
from his life.
“She gave birth to his daughter and brought my mother to live in
Crera…
“Later, my mother had me with my father, who was from the Olsen family…

“All of this seems to have been paving the way for completing the tasks issued by the South family…”
Keira needed to collaborate with the five major families, so she became the daughter of one of them, the Olsen family, which naturally connected her to the five major families.
With Uncle Olsen around, even if Keira didn’t have much influence, Uncle Olsen could have facilitated the connections with the five major families for her.
If not for Keira, James would become the next Sect Leader of the
Freeman Sect, and he was her cousin.
The Gill, Allen, and Davis families all collaborated closely with the Olsen family…
After Keira completed the first and second tasks set by the South family, the third task was to enter into a marriage alliance with the Martin family, and at this time, out came her grandmother.
All of this seemed to be tightly connected by a thread.
It felt so deliberate, yet it came at just the right time.
Keira didn’t feel the joy of recognizing her kin; rather, she felt as though she had been caught up in a massive conspiracy.
As she was pondering, she heard Vera’s exclamations of disbelief. “This is impossible!”
Vera looked at everything in front of her in astonishment, almost going mad. “This is impossible! Mr. Martin, you must have been deceived by her again! Keera, did you bribe all the doctors in the Martin family?!”

That was just ridiculous.
Old Mr. Martin sighed. “Vera, between you and Keera, I choose her. You may leave now.”
But Vera was quivering with rage.
She abruptly stood up and glared viciously at old Mr. Martin. “I’ve wasted so much time and energy on you all. Do you think I’ll just leave because you told me to? Mr. Martin, you’ve chosen Keera, so you’re all going to die here!”
After that, she waved her hand, and suddenly, a group rushed in
from outside.
They all looked like skilled fighters and surrounded everyone like
mercenaries!
Holly exclaimed in shock. “Vera, what are you doing? This is Crera, not a place where you can mess around!”
Vera sneered. “Yes, I can’t mess around, but if I kill you all, who’s going to know it was me? Mr. Martin, you reminded me last time that Scott isn’t the only option for collaborating with the Martin family. Tell me, if you die today, and I tell your family that it was Keera who killed you, how will your family choose?”
Old Mr. Martin’s pupils constricted. “You wouldn’t dare! This is the
Martin residence! Guards!”
But no one came in response to his call.
Old Mr. Martin’s eyes gradually filled with panic.
“Nothing can stop me.” Vera strolled over leisurely. “Did you think
I’ve been living at the Martin residence for so long for nothing? Let

me tell you, the entire Martin family is now under my control!”
There was a determined look in her eyes as she continued. “Old man, you made me do this!”
Then, she turned toward Keira, “And you, little rabbit, although Crera is your territory, you’re just too weak… What do you have to compare with me? Want to find an antidote for your father? Haha, there’s no need to make an effort anymore. You’ll soon join him!”
With a wave of her hand, those fierce bodyguards immediately began to close in. Keira, Lewis, and Scott protected old Mr. Martin, Erin, and Holly in the middle.
Keira stared at Vera resolutely. “Have you reached a dead end? Don’t forget that in Crera, you can’t use these illegal methods!”
Vera chuckled contemptuously. “Who told you so? I just have to make sure not to get caught! But didn’t I just tell you? It’ll appear as if a conflict arose between you and old Mr. Martin, and you both died in the fight. What does it have to do with me?”
Her smile suddenly vanished. “It’s time to die!”
But the next moment, Keira curled up her lips and asked, “Holly, did you get all that recorded?”
Holly nodded. “Yes. Vera plotted to murder everyone. It’s all been recorded, and we have enough to make an arrest now.”

Vera scoffed. “So what if you have evidence now? I’ve jammed all signals in the Martin residence. Your evidence can’t be sent out. I told you, you’re all going to die here today! Holly, I didn’t let you in earlier, but you insisted. You wouldn’t listen, so don’t blame me!”

“Before you start bragging, you better take a good look at the situation. Vera, you are the one surrounded,” Keira declared coldly.
Vera almost burst out laughing at this. “Keera, are you blind? See for yourself! Who exactly is surrounding whom?!”
Keira calmly said to someone outside, “What are you waiting for?”
With her words, laughter came from outside/
“Boss, we’ve just been waiting for your command!”
“Coming! We’re coming!”
“Senior Sister, we’re here!”
Along with these voices, a group of people suddenly flooded into
the Martin mansion from all around!
There were those dressed as couriers…
And some from the Freeman Sect…
Those people all had one thing in common–they were strong and well–built. All of them were warriors!
They promptly encircled Vera and her people!
