Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Annabelle and Esther frowned deeply, while Garrett and Damian’s faces darkened.

“Amber must be crazy!” Audrey Woodwind watched the video of Amber Reed with disgust in her eyes, quickly masked by anger. “It’s bad enough she’s pregnant before marriage, but now she wants to pin it on Jared Farrell and make him take responsibility!”

Ha! Does she even know her place? A man like Jared Farrell, and she dares to dream!

Audrey Woodwind sneered internally but put on a pitiful face. “Mom, Grandma, this matter has already spread throughout Ensford. If it reaches the capital, what will people think of our family? My reputation will be affected just because Amber Reed is my cousin. People will think I’m as indiscreet as she is!”

Annabelle had considered this too and was about to comfort Audrey when Damian’s phone rang.

“It’s Grandpa.” Damian looked troubled but sighed and answered the call.

Sure enough, Muff Reed’s angry roar came through the phone. “What’s wrong with Amber Reed? Not only is she pregnant out of wedlock, but she also dares to throw dirt on Logan’s precious grandson! Does she think she can make him a fool?”

Muff Reed was furious. Ever since this granddaughter was brought back, he had been constantly aggravated. Logan would often come to his nursing home just to mock him. And Logan had every right to do so, leaving Muff Reed no choice but to endure it.

In the nursing home, surrounded by old friends and relatives, every time Logan came, they all watched the spectacle of Logan scolding him like a child. He felt like he wasn’t recuperating at all; this newly recognized granddaughter was driving him to his grave!

Damian endured Muff Reed’s scolding without daring to retort, only responding meekly.

“Call your brother.”

After hanging up, Annabelle’s face was grim. She turned to Garrett. “Ask him why he didn’t suppress all the news when it happened. How did it become such a scandal that even the old man knows?”

“Yes.”

Garrett quickly called Jasper Reed for an explanation. After hanging up, he frowned and told Annabelle, “Mom, big brother said he tried to suppress the news immediately, but the Farrell family intervened.”

The Reed family fell silent. Compared to the Farrell family, they were significantly weaker. Amber Reed being exposed as pregnant out of wedlock was one thing, but trying to pin it on Jared Farrell?

Who was Jared Farrell? He was the next head of the Farrell family, one of the four major families in the capital! If Jared Farrell wanted to teach Amber Reed a lesson, there was nothing they could do.

“Mom!” Audrey Woodwind scrolled through her phone and then complained to Esther. “Amber Reed’s scandal has reached our school! My classmates are asking me about it on WeChat! The campus forum even says it’s me who’s pregnant!”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

She gritted her teeth in frustration. She knew Amber Reed’s mess would affect her reputation!

“Fortunately, you’ve already graduated,” Esther patted her daughter’s hand to comfort her. “By the time you start university, this matter will have blown over.”

Audrey Woodwind’s face darkened further.

She felt that the Reed family was too lenient with Amber Reed. Despite causing such a scandal that affected her reputation, they still wanted to keep things quiet.

Annabelle, who had watched Audrey grow up and cared deeply for her granddaughter, could see her grievances clearly.

After a moment of silence, she said to everyone, “We’ll wait for Jasper and Amber to come back and get to the bottom of this.”

Just then, Jasper Reed entered with a downcast Amber Reed. Seeing everyone’s eyes on them, Jasper understood they were waiting for them.

“Grandma,” Amber Reed called out cautiously with a pale face.

“Sit down,” Annabelle pointed to the sofa.

Jasper sat next to Garrett while Amber initially moved to sit beside Audrey Woodwind. However, seeing her approach, Audrey stood up with a stern face and moved to sit next to Esther instead.

Amber’s eyes darkened briefly before she quickly masked it with a pitiful look.

“Amber, is it true you’re pregnant?” Annabelle asked sternly.

Amber nodded pitifully. She couldn’t deny it; she had seen the news herself. Photos of her visiting the obstetrics department had been exposed. The Reed family only needed to investigate to confirm everything.

“Whose child is it?” Annabelle asked, barely containing her anger.

“It’s Nathaniel’s…” Amber’s eyes flickered as her voice grew smaller.

“What?!” Jasper Reed frowned in anger. “When did this start?”

“When I first went to the capital…” Amber mumbled vaguely, portraying herself as a victim led astray. “I was unfamiliar with everything and scared. Nathaniel was kind to me, so I…”

“Great!” Annabelle laughed angrily. “Logan dares trouble our family when it’s his grandson who did this!”

Audrey Woodwind glanced at Amber with suspicion.

She hadn’t seen Amber being timid when she first arrived in the capital; she had been quite bold in bullying her. Moreover, she didn’t believe Amber had any affection for Nathaniel Farrell; she had always had her eyes on Jared Farrell.

If Amber liked Jared Farrell, why would she end up pregnant with Nathaniel Farrell’s child?

“Call Nathaniel Farrell here now!” Annabelle demanded angrily. “He needs to explain himself to our family!”

Amber obediently called Nathaniel Farrell. He arrived quickly but with a cold expression. This time, his attitude towards Amber was distant and angry.

After greeting the elders of the Reed family, Jasper asked him, “Amber says she’s pregnant with your child. Is that true?”

Nathaniel glanced at Amber with disgust.

Amber stared back at him warningly.

Annoyed but resigned, he nodded. “Yes.”

Amber breathed a sigh of relief. She knew she could persuade Nathaniel Farrell with benefits to take the blame.

Leaving Ensford High School earlier, she had already thought of using this method to deal with the Reed family’s questioning.

She had messaged Nathaniel Farrell, promising that if he acknowledged her child, she would marry him. As the most favored daughter of the capital’s Reed family, her dowry would benefit Nathaniel greatly. Moreover, the Reed family would support him in competing against Jared Farrell for the head of the Farrell family position.
