Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Chapter 277: Mr. Emerson, Please Come with Us for Investigation



Everyone looked toward Vivienne, stunned. What was happening? Wasn’t Tina Jared’s fiancee? Why was she helping Liliosa against Tina? Logan’s face immediately darkened. “Vivienne, what nonsense are you talking about?”

Vivienne smiled slightly, then pulled out her phone, opened a recording, and played it. The conversation between Liliosa and Cactus was crystal clear, filling the hall. It detailed how she bribed Cactus to plan an embarrassment for Tina at the banquet.

Liliosa’s face turned green with shock. She had never expected her conversation with Cactus to be recorded by Vivienne, especially since she thought Vivienne was on her side. The crowd was astonished. “Who would have thought Liliosa was so malicious? Miss Reed is her own niece, and yet she planned to ruin her at her own banquet.”

“Liliosa once drugged Mr. Emerson to marry him, causing him to break up with his fiancee. She’s done it before, so it’s no surprise she would dare to do such a thing again.”

“Tsk, tsk, I wonder how Jasper will handle this? One is his sister, the other his daughter!”

Liliosa, hearing the surrounding murmurs, was both angry and anxious. She hurriedly explained, “It wasn’t me! That’s not my voice. Vivienne is framing me.”

“Slap!” The sound echoed as Muff slapped her across the face, his voice booming, “The evidence is clear, and yet you dare to argue! It seems you didn’t heed my warning last time!”

Originally, the Reed family had forbidden Liliosa from attending the banquet considering Tina’s feelings, but she had sneaked in anyway. With so many people present, they couldn’t let Liliosa’s actions spoil the event, so he hadn’t bothered with her. Who would have thought she’d dare to drug Tina’s dress?

Muff’s slap was powerful, causing Liliosa’s face to swell instantly. Holding her face, she exclaimed angrily, “Dad! How can you hit me? I told you, it wasn’t me. It was clearly Tina. She harmed Mack! You can’t wrong me because of Tina.”

Liliosa glared at Vivienne. “And this Vivienne, she’s in cahoots with Tina. Who knows if it was Logan’s doing? The Farrell family wants to suppress the Reed and Emerson families, so they framed me with this recording.”

Hearing this, Vivienne laughed, “Before I came to the banquet, I had never met Tina. How could I conspire with her to frame you? If you doubt this recording, you can have a voice verification done. We, the Farrell family, don’t get pushed around by outsiders.”

Logan’s expression had already softened upon hearing the recording, and hearing Vivienne speak so satisfied him even more. Among his grandchildren, aside from Jared Farrell, Vivienne was the one who pleased him the most. The Farrell family should indeed present a united front.

Jared Farrell glanced at her, his eyes deep.

Liliosa was panicking. How could she possibly undergo voice verification? The words were clearly hers. If she went for verification, wouldn’t that be admitting it was her?

At that moment, the Emerson family’s servants brought Mack out from the rest area, and at the same time, Cactus’s live stream was shut down.

Liliosa hurried over. “Mack, are you alright? Tell me what happened. Why were you in Tina’s rest room? Did she kidnap you?” She then signaled Mack with her eyes.

The effects of the drug had worn off after Mack’s encounter with that man. His mind was clearer now, but the memory of what had occurred made him nauseous. He hurried to a corner, found a trash can, and began to vomit violently.

Once he felt slightly better, Mack rushed toward Tina, his face twisted with rage. “You wretch, I’ll kill you!” He lunged at Tina.

Tina stood calmly, hands in her pockets, her cool eyes lifting slightly as she watched him without emotion.

Jared Farrell quickly stepped in front of her. Simultaneously, Jasper and Hayden Cohen rushed over. Hayden kicked Mack precisely towards a sensitive area. Mack yelped in pain, clutching himself and hopping around.

Jasper bellowed, “Scoundrel!” Mack was startled by Jasper’s fury, having not seen him this angry in a long time, and momentarily froze.

Jasper’s eyes were filled with rage as he stared at Mack. “I haven’t settled the score with you for framing Tina, and you dare to attack her in public? Do you really think I’m dead?”

“I…” Mack was panic-stricken, about to explain when Jasper shouted, “Bring him! Bind him and hand him over to the police! Tell them we won’t accept any settlement!”

Tina, who had been watching silently, slightly lifted her gaze, her lips curving into a cold smirk. She was smiling, but it didn’t reach her eyes.

“No!” Liliosa screamed, “Jasper, you can’t do this to Mack. He’s your nephew. You made me lose Annie, you can’t let Mack go to jail too.”

“Shut up!” Jasper snapped coldly. “I’ve been tolerant because of Annie, but that’s no excuse for you to repeatedly bully Tina because your daughter went missing. What nonsense is this?”

Despite his guilt over Annie’s disappearance, he had given Liliosa money over the years to smooth over her troubles, which was quite enough.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

“But you still owe me! I don’t care! You once promised you’d grant me one wish, and I want you to let Mack go!” Liliosa knew that denying her involvement was futile as no one would believe her.

The evidence was irrefutable and could not withstand scrutiny. Rather than continue framing Tina, she chose to try and save Mack.

Mack frowned, momentarily forgetting the promise he had made to Liliosa years ago. He paused, then turned to look at Tina, only to see her looking back at him with a half-smile, her clear eyes seemingly piercing through to his very soul, discerning his true intentions.

“Tina, I…”

Just as Jasper was about to speak, several uniformed law enforcement officers arrived. They showed their badges and said sternly, “Mr. Mack, please come with us for investigation. Someone has reported you for broadcasting obscene content. Please come with us for questioning!”
