Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Muff furrowed his brows tightly. He turned to Jasper and asked, “What’s going on? Why hasn’t Tina come out yet?”

“No idea,” Jasper replied, looking towards the stairs. “She should be out soon. Let’s wait a bit longer.”

Jared Farrell’s deep, cold eyes were fixed on the lounge at the top of the stairs, his face devoid of any expression. After a moment of silence, he instructed Nathan Lehman, “Go check.”

Nathan Lehman nodded, “Yes.”

Just as Nathan Lehman reached the foot of the stairs, someone suddenly screamed, “Oh my God! What’s happening? That Cactus is live streaming, saying the Reed family’s daughter is promiscuous! How can this be? Isn’t she in the lounge?”

Nathan Lehman paused and frowned at the person speaking. It was Audrey Woodwind’s friend. She was staring wide-eyed at her phone.

Upon hearing this, everyone pulled out their phones to watch. The live stream’s title read: “Shocking! Reed Family’s Daughter Engaging in Promiscuity at Banquet. Details Inside!”

Instantly, many viewers flooded into the live stream. The Cactus host did not appear on screen; it was pitch black with only ambiguous sounds of a man and woman echoing through.

Though the screen was dark and no faces could be seen, the woman’s coquettish voice sounded strikingly similar to Tina’s.

“Oh my!” Audrey Woodwind instinctively looked around. “Isn’t that my cousin…”

She didn’t dare finish her sentence for fear of drawing trouble upon herself and quickly shut her mouth. Although she hadn’t spoken much with Tina, she could still recognize Tina’s voice. Even if it wasn’t exactly like Tina’s, it was close enough!

What was going on? Wasn’t Tina supposed to be in the lounge getting ready? How could she be live streaming something like that?

Despite feeling uncomfortable with all the attention Tina received after returning to the Reed family, Audrey didn’t believe Tina would do such a thing. Could it be revenge against the Reed family? Revenge for Jasper mistaking someone else for her and not finding her sooner?

“No wonder she wouldn’t come out; she was being indecent in the lounge!”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“Tsk tsk! This Miss Reed is something else. Most people do such things in secret, but she does it openly and even streams it live. How much does she hate the Reed family?”

“She must be unbearably lonely. I heard this Miss Reed grew up in the countryside without proper discipline, which explains why she’d do something so shameless.”

As people gossiped, the hotel lobby screen suddenly lit up. It connected to Cactus’s live stream. The sounds from the stream played loudly through the hotel’s audio system, making everyone blush with embarrassment.

Some female guests were so ashamed they wished they could find a hole to hide in.

Jasper’s face darkened visibly. Before he could speak, Lily Ward glanced at his expression and subtly smirked, “Could Miss Reed be unwell? Maybe we should go check on her?”

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a cold presence approaching her from not far away. She turned to see Jared Farrell’s narrow eyes squinting at her like sharp knives ready to strike. His entire demeanor exuded a murderous aura as if he could take a life in an instant.

Lily Ward shivered involuntarily and quickly looked away, not daring to meet his gaze again.

“Impossible!” Logan trembled with anger, gripping his cane tightly. “This can’t be Tina! Who dares to slander her like this?”

Whoever dared to play such tricks under his nose must have had immense courage! He wouldn’t believe anyone who tried to tarnish Tina’s reputation and certainly wouldn’t let them off easily.

Jared Farrell withdrew his icy gaze from Lily Ward and stood up, hands in his pockets as he scanned the room with an authoritative presence that made everyone fall silent instinctively.

But everyone wondered what was going on. Wasn’t Jared Farrell supposed to be useless? Why did he suddenly exude such a terrifying aura as if he were about to kill someone?

Jared Farrell looked at Muff and Jasper. “Mr. Farrell, Mr. Reed, what do you think?”

“I naturally believe that the person in the live stream isn’t Tina,” Muff said, somewhat shocked by Jared Farrell’s sudden display of dominance.

Then he understood! Logan Farrell’s grandson couldn’t possibly be an ordinary person, especially not his most beloved grandson.

“Someone! Find out who’s behind this plot against my daughter at her banquet,” Jasper suddenly commanded harshly. “Once we find out who it is, there will be no mercy!”

Although Jasper was the head of the Reed family, he had handed over company matters to Damian years ago. After leaving the business world, he had lost his sharp edge.

But now, he radiated hostility!

Satisfied with their responses, Jared Farrell nodded approvingly and casually adjusted his slightly wrinkled sleeves from having his hands in his pockets. “That’s all I needed to hear! No need for you to investigate; I’ll handle it myself! Someone dared to scheme against my fiancee at a Reed family banquet; they won’t get away easily.”

He raised his eyes slightly and looked at Jasper without any warmth in his gaze. “Don’t you agree, Mr. Reed?”

Jasper furrowed his brows and pondered for a moment before speaking up. “Tina is my daughter; it’s my place to stand up for her.”

His sharp eyes met Jared Farrell’s coldly but indifferently as he said, “You’re overstepping.”

He didn’t oppose Tina being with Jared Farrell since they were engaged; as her father, he had no objections either. But Jared Farrell always trying to take charge ahead of him was unacceptable.

Jared Farrell met Jasper’s gaze head-on; their eyes clashed like swords.

After a momentary standoff, Jared Farrell smirked faintly and said coolly, “Fine! I hope Mr. Reed handles this matter satisfactorily for everyone.”

His voice was indifferent without a trace of gentleness but gave Nathan Lehman a meaningful look as he finished speaking.

Nathan Lehman immediately understood and headed towards the lounge.

Jasper retracted his gaze after glancing briefly at Jared Farrell before addressing everyone present: “My daughter would never do something so outrageous; I will provide you all with a satisfactory explanation.”

At that moment, the screen showing the live stream suddenly resumed broadcasting images again-a flash of lotus-colored skirt fabric adorned with an eye-catching diamond sparkled brightly before disappearing from view.

“Isn’t it clear yet? Miss Reed avoids appearing while another woman wearing her custom-designed dress is in that live stream-doesn’t Mr. Reed find this whole situation absurd?!”

“The dignified daughter of the Reed family doing such things publicly-are we nothing in their eyes?”
