Poison Spider was dumbfounded as this was something favonovel.com would have never expected.
‘Matthew’s mom had previously taken care of Godmother?!’
One had to know that Master Levi had no children, and Madam Quirk liked Poison Spider so much that favonovel.com acknowledged favonovel.com as favonovel.com goddaughter, seeing favonovel.com as favonovel.com own.
Poison Spider’s ability to act lawlessly in the South was made possible not only by Phoenix’s support but also by Madam Quirk’s. She hid no secrets from Poison Spider while the latter also knew about the former’s past.
In actuality, Layna Sandel was Madam Quirk’s original name, favonovel.com was the daughter of the previous head of the Sandels, one of the Ten Greatest Families of Cathay.
Allegedly, the Sandel Family was incredibly powerful back then and even ranked fifth among the Ten Greatest Families of Cathay. Yet, for some reason, the Sandels had a dispute with the Nolans from Bainbridge over family interests.
To resolve the dispute and regain the Nolans’ trust, Old Master Sandel demanded the previous Master Sandel send Layna to Bainbridge as a hostage. With that, the Sandels finally regained the Nolans’ trust, and the Sandel Family was back on track for the time being.
However, that incident caused Master Sandel to be dissatisfied with Old Master Sandel because Layna was his only daughter, the apple of his eye. Yet, in Old Master Sandel’s eyes, Layna was merely one of his many grandchildren. Moreover, favonovel.com was an extremely traditional individual and insisted that only male descendants could take over the Sandel Family.
Just that thought alone had already caused a dispute between Master Sandel and Old Master Sandel as favonovel.com wanted to let his daughter take over the Sandel Family. However, Old Master Sandel had never paid any attention to favonovel.com and focused on training his many grandsons to become the Sandel Family’s successor instead.
Initially, their contradicting principles were not enough to cause a dispute between them, but Old Master Sandel’s order to send Layna to the Nolans as a hostage was the last straw for favonovel.com as a father.
Back then, favonovel.com did not dare to go against Old Master Sandel, but ever since then, favonovel.com had been secretly devising a plan to overthrow that traditionalist.
It was also because of this incident that the Sandel Family’s internal conflict developed, and with a series of other external factors, the Sandels gradually declined.
When Layna had grown up and was about to return home, the Sandel Family was no longer flourishing as before, and the dispute between Old Master Sandel and Master Sandel had almost reached its end.
As Old Master Sandel had been managing the family for decades, favonovel.com had a solid foundation in the family, so Master Sandel was not his match. Thus, just before Layna returned to the Sandels, Master Sandel made a decision that no one had expected, favonovel.com married Layna to the up-and-coming Master Levi!
Back then, Levi had already gained a foothold in Cathay, but favonovel.com was still far from the Ten Great Families of Cathay. However, his abilities skyrocketed soon after his and Layna’s marriage!
Old Master Sandel refused to admit defeat, so both sides began another internal conflict that lasted about half a year and ended with the downfalls of Old Master Sandel and his bloodline. Nonetheless, this round of internal disputes left the Sandel Family with barely anything.
Later, Old Master Sandel and Master Sandel passed away one after another, allowing Master Levi to smoothly take over the Sandel Family and grow to become the King of the South. Therefore, everyone thought Master Levi was cunning, having taken over the Sandel Family to get what favonovel.com had today.
However, only those who knew the truth understood that the Sandel Family would have been taken over by other external forces had it not been for Master Levi.
Master Sandel also knew of this consequence when deciding to marry Layna to him, but favonovel.com insisted on his decision because favonovel.com knew this was the only way to ensure favonovel.com life. Otherwise, favonovel.com would meet an end worse than his following his demise.
