Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Tina raised an eyebrow, staring intently at Nathaniel without saying a word. After a long while, she suddenly spoke, “Did you take the wrong medicine?”

Nathaniel was speechless. What the heck! Such a heartfelt apology, and that’s all she says?

He cleared his throat and continued, “I am sincerely apologizing to you.”

“Oh,” Tina responded with a single word and no further comment.

Nathaniel was frustrated. Was that all the reaction he was going to get? She was like a mute, barely saying anything!

He took a deep breath and sat on the stone bench opposite Tina. “Miss Reed, have you ever considered whether there is a future for you and Jared?”

Tina glanced at him. “What are you trying to say?”

“Actually, from the first moment I saw you, I liked you. But I don’t know how to express myself. I wanted to attract your attention but didn’t know how, so things always went wrong between us.”

Tina remained silent. Could he be any more fake?

Nathaniel continued without missing a beat, “I know what I’m saying now might sound insincere, but time will prove my sincerity. Miss Reed, I hope you can give me a chance to prove my true feelings.”

“Oh?” Tina looked at him with a half-smile. “How do you plan to prove it?”

Nathaniel thought for a moment. “To show my sincerity, I’m willing to give you all my assets.”

“How much do you have?” Tina asked.Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

“About one hundred million dollars,” Nathaniel replied.

The financial control of the Farrell family was in the hands of the patriarch. The dividends from their family business and some of his own ventures amounted to about five hundred million dollars. Of course, he wouldn’t give all his money to Tina.

“Although I only have one hundred million dollars, my feelings for you are unwavering. Miss Reed, think about it. Jared is seventh in our family hierarchy. Even though Grandpa has named him as the heir, he doesn’t have much ability. If the family is handed over to someone like him, it will only go downhill. You won’t have a good life with him.”

“But with me, it’s different. I’m the eldest grandson and capable. If we join forces, we can definitely take control of the Farrell family. Then you’ll be the mistress of the Farrell family, having everything you desire. I can assure you that I’ll do my best to fulfill your wishes.”

Tina laughed. “You want to marry me for just one hundred million dollars?”

“How much do you want?” Nathaniel frowned.

This woman was truly greedy.

People raised in the countryside had such low standards and only cared about money.

If it weren’t for not wanting Jared to benefit from her being a daughter of the Reed family, he wouldn’t bother himself with this.

“Ten billion dollars.” The Mountain Veil Order and the research institute needed a lot of funding; getting ten billion from Nathaniel would be nice.

But he looked quite poor.

He probably couldn’t come up with ten billion dollars.

Sure enough, Nathaniel’s eyes widened in anger in the next second. “Ten billion? Why don’t you go rob a bank? Tina, don’t think that just because you’re a daughter of the Reed family, you’re entitled to make demands! I’m offering you one hundred million out of respect; the Farrell family will be mine sooner or later. If you’re smart, you’ll break off your engagement with Jared and be with me; if not…”

“What?” Tina asked indifferently.

Nathaniel gritted his teeth as he looked at her and suddenly shouted, “Help! Tina is trying to seduce me! Someone help!”

Tina was stunned.

Nathaniel started tearing his clothes while running towards the main hall. “Grandpa! Come quickly! Tina has lost her mind; she’s trying to strip me and sleep with me!”

Tina couldn’t believe what she was hearing.

Nathaniel’s loud voice startled everyone in the Farrell family.

Even members from other branches came out.

Logan and Marie were the first to arrive. Seeing this scene, Logan sternly asked, “Nathaniel, what nonsense are you up to now?”

Nathaniel threw himself down on his knees before the patriarch and cried out hoarsely, “Grandpa! You must stand up for me! Tina wants to sleep with me! Look at what she’s done to my clothes! And these marks on my body are all from her!”

Jared had just come downstairs when he heard Nathaniel’s words. His face darkened instantly, exuding a chilling aura.

Logan looked down and saw that several buttons on Nathaniel’s shirt had been torn off and there were many marks on his body.

It was clear they were fresh scratches.

Before Logan could say anything, Hazel suddenly screamed, “Oh my God! How did it get like this? Tina, you’re a young lady; how can you be so shameless? Seducing my son in broad daylight? Is this how your Reed family raises children?”

Clara watched with amusement. “Tsk! Who would’ve thought that a daughter of the Reed family would be so bold? Trying to hook up with another man right in her fiance’s house.”

“Shut up!” Logan swung his cane at Nathaniel in anger. “You scoundrel! How dare you slander Tina? I’ll beat you to death!”

The patriarch didn’t hold back; Nathaniel screamed in pain as he was beaten!

While dodging blows, Nathaniel cried out, “Grandpa! You’re being unfair! It’s clearly Tina who seduced me; instead of helping me, you’re beating me! That Tina is just a tramp; yet you’re treating her like treasure!”

Jared’s face grew darker as he stared at Nathaniel with eyes as cold as death itself.

Seeing this, Hazel quickly shielded Nathaniel. “Dad! The whole family knows you’re biased but this is too much! I’ve tolerated it when you’ve hit Nathaniel before but today it’s clearly Tina’s fault. Yet instead of punishing her, you’re hitting Nathaniel! Is this how a grandfather should act?”

“Dare say another word!” Logan swung his cane again hitting both Hazel and Nathaniel this time. “Tina seducing Nathaniel? Do you have some misunderstanding about her taste? Is Nathaniel better looking than Jared or richer than him? Does he deserve her attention?”

“None of you have any self-awareness yet dare slander others? Not only does Tina not fancy him but even I wouldn’t fancy him with those two pieces of meat on his bones!”

“You really think I’m too old to swing this cane anymore? Today I’ll show whether or not I still can.”

Hazel cried out under each blow until Arthur couldn’t stand it anymore intervening by saying “Dad! This situation is bad enough already without making things worse by beating people publicly humiliating our family further.”

“Alright then if clarity is what’s needed let’s get some.” Logan turned towards Tina asking “Tina tell us exactly what happened just now?”
