"How did you know that this ancestral hall cannot be entered casually?" he asked her, staring intently, for he had never ntioned this point before.
"I heard Katie’s boyfriend talk about so matters regarding the Kinston Family’s ancestral hall, but he only ntioned that the Kinston Family has an ancestral hall, and it doesn’t allow outsiders to enter," Mabel Quinn explained.
His dark phoenix eyes looked at her, filled with a sense of contradiction. Abruptly, he grabbed her hand and quickly walked towards the hall’s main entrance.
She almost stumbled while trying to keep pace with him, "Kyle, slow down," she couldn’t help but say.
His footsteps halted, as if he suddenly cald down, slowing his pace as they walked out of the hall together.
Once outside the hall, Kyle Kinston glanced back at the words "Kinston Family Ancestral Hall" on the large door, a complex expression flashing in his eyes.
"What did you see in there just now, and what did you find out?" he asked abruptly.
She paused slightly before answering, "I saw many morial tablets, and when you found , I was looking at the items displayed in that hall. There are many Kinston Family tablets in that hall. Is the Kinston Family placing the morial tablets of all their ancestors in this hall?"
"No," he said, "it’s not all of the Kinston Family’s ancestral tablets, just a small portion of the Kinston Family."
Mabel was surprised. Those tablets already seed nurous to her, but for a family as historically rich as the Kinston Family, it was only a small portion.
"Why only a small portion?" she asked, confused. It couldn’t be because the space was too small; the hall was large enough, and even if it wasn’t, they could expand the hall.
Because this group of people all bore the Kinston Family’s Blood Curse. "Because in each generation of the Kinston Family, only one person’s tablet is allowed to enter the hall," he said, "the Kinston Family’s Blood Curse is passed down to just one person each generation."
Mabel was astonished, not expecting such a rule.
Kyle lowered his eyes and murmured softly, "In the future, a hundred years from now, my tablet will also be placed inside." It would also be the last Kinston-nad tablet placed in this hall by the Kinston Family.
She was sowhat taken aback, only to hear his voice continue softly by her ear, "And you... are you willing to be with ?"
Together... Mabel’s mind flashed with the images of those other surnad tablets she saw next to the Kinston-nad ones in the hall, "Is it like those other surna tablets next to the Kinston tablets in the hall?"
"Yes, your tablet will be placed next to my nad tablet," Kyle said, "Are you willing?"
Mabel nodded, "I have no reason not to be willing. I am your wife, wherever you are, I’ll be there."
He gazed at her, sowhat lost in thought; she was his life companion, she would also be his wife... a hundred years from now, they would still be together.
"But why do so Kinston-a family tablets in the hall not have other surna tablets next to them?" she asked.
"Because they never found the person they loved in their lifeti," Kyle said, his lids half-lowered, the long dark lashes also covering the wistful expression in his eyes, "Only those recognized by a Kinston Family mber as their true love in life have the qualification to have their tablet placed in this hall."
She ca to understand, "So your mother’s tablet is also in there?"
"Yes," he responded gently, "Mother was father’s one true love. After her death, he wanted her tablet placed in this hall. As long as he was in Falling City, he would co every day to see her."
