Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

“Miss Reed, I heard that my mother went to Whispering Pines last time and said some unpleasant things. I hope you won’t take it to heart for my sake,” Lily stepped forward, both explaining and apologizing. No matter what, she couldn’t let go of Jared. In front of Jared, she had to put in the effort to make a good impression.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

She pointed to the leather bag beside her and said to the sales assistant, “I’ll buy this bag as an apology gift for Miss Reed. Please wrap it up.”

“For your sake?” Tina lifted her eyes slightly. “Is your face that valuable?”

“I…”

Lily didn’t expect Tina to respond like this. Her composure vanished completely, leaving only awkwardness.

Willow, seeing her daughter being bullied, looked displeased. “Miss Reed, Lily is kindly buying you a bag, and you still show her attitude! What kind of behavior is this?”

Even if Tina had been acknowledged by the Reed family, in Willow’s eyes, she was still a country bumpkin unworthy of the spotlight. Because of this, Willow almost wanted to teach Tina a lesson herself.

“Your behavior doesn’t befit a lady of the Reed family. I advise you to change your attitude so you don’t embarrass Jasper!” Willow scolded coldly.

“What?” Jared looked over coldly, his expression darkening. “Tina’s status needs your questioning?”

Even if Tina wasn’t the legitimate eldest daughter of the Reed family verified by DNA testing, it wasn’t Willow’s place to show disdain here.

“I didn’t mean that…”

Facing Jared’s intimidating gaze, Willow stammered in fear. “Mr. Farrell misunderstood. I meant that Tina doesn’t deserve Mr. Farrell; she’s aiming too high…”

Although everyone knew Jared was considered useless by many, they also knew Logan had entrusted him with the Farrell family’s power. Useless or not, as long as Logan valued him, nothing else mattered.

In the future, whoever ruled the Farrell family would depend on Logan’s decisions. Willow wanted to become the matriarch of the Reed family and didn’t want her daughter marrying an ordinary person. Thinking about it now, climbing up the Farrell family tree wasn’t a bad idea.

Moreover, Lily had mentioned that Jared was her investor. Mr. Daryl’s identity was even more attractive than being the heir of the Farrell family.

Jared narrowed his eyes slightly and looked down at her from above, putting his arm around Tina’s shoulder. “Aiming too high!”

“Mr. Farrell, please don’t mind my mother; she spoke out of love for me,” Lily explained while suppressing her anger towards Willow. “Miss Reed doesn’t need to be polite or feel burdened; buying this bag is just an apology with no other intention.”

This bag cost at least a million dollars. It might be insufficient for other socialites but more than enough for Tina. A country girl like her wouldn’t have seen such luxury before; giving her this was already elevating her status.

Lily had forgotten that Tina had previously auctioned off an imperial jade worth billions and that Annabelle had casually given Tina three hundred million dollars. Logan had even said that if Tina wanted it, even a hundred billion dollars wouldn’t be an issue for the Farrell family.

“Too ugly.” Tina looked at the bag expressionlessly, ignoring Lily’s so-called “apology.” She doubted Lily’s taste for picking out the ugliest item in the store.

“What did you say?”

Lily couldn’t believe her ears and stared wide-eyed at Tina.

“Bad taste and poor hearing?” Tina brushed her hair aside and said, “That money would be better spent on hospital treatment.”

Humiliated several times in a row, Lily gritted her teeth as anger surged within her throat. Why could Tina speak so arrogantly? It was all because she had Mr. Farrell backing her up.

Lily didn’t understand why Jared liked Tina when she believed she was equally matched in every aspect.

“Miss Reed, don’t go too far…”

Lily struggled to contain her anger while Willow fumed beside her.

“Noisy.” Tina glanced at them indifferently and couldn’t be bothered to respond further. She took Jared’s arm and said, “Let’s go somewhere else.”

“Alright.” Jared smiled in agreement.

His smile pierced through Lily’s heart like sunlight, occupying all her thoughts. Before she could react, Jared was already holding Tina’s hand and leaving.

“That wretched girl!”

Seeing them head to another luxury store, Willow cursed again. “She really thinks she’s something special now! Does she think she’s so precious that she can flaunt herself before us?”

“Mom!”

Lily turned to look at her complaining mother with some dissatisfaction in her heart. “Getting angry at Tina is just asking for trouble!”

Jared had been present just now; they needed to act properly so he wouldn’t know their true feelings towards Tina.

“You blame me? Didn’t you see how arrogant Tina was? She almost stepped on our heads! I can’t swallow this anger!” Willow fumed just thinking about it. “I don’t understand how she’s so lucky-being both the eldest daughter of the Reed family and engaged to someone from the Farrell family!”

Lily felt similarly but knew she couldn’t show these thoughts in front of Jared.

“Alright, stop being angry!” Seeing Willow still upset, Lily tried comforting her by patting her back gently. “Didn’t you like a bag earlier? I’ll buy it for you; forget about these annoying things!”

Willow pointed at the sales assistant while speaking, “Wrap up that bag we saw earlier; we’re buying it.”

“I’m sorry, ma’am.”

Just as Willow was about to take out her credit card, the sales assistant politely said, “The gentleman earlier bought everything in our store; we have no stock left now. Please visit another store.”

What?!

Willow and Lily exchanged shocked glances while Lily clenched her fists in anger.

She had coveted that bag for a long time but hesitated due to its high price. Even though she was a Ward family heiress, not everything could be bought impulsively.

Yet Jared easily bought it all for Tina without hesitation.

Lily’s face turned pale with rage.

Tina!

Just wait!

She would make sure anyone who dared show her attitude would face severe consequences!
