Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Arthur’s face turned grim. Although he also thought his son was incompetent, it wasn’t up to others, especially an outsider like Tina, to criticize him.

“Dad! I’ve always respected your decisions, but today Tina has bullied us. Shouldn’t you say something?”

“Exactly!” Hazel chimed in indignantly. “She’s targeting us specifically. I don’t know if she dislikes us or if someone is behind this!”

Someone behind this? Wasn’t that clearly implying Jared?

Tina was Jared’s fiancee, naturally aligned with him. Now that she had openly confronted Nathaniel, it meant a family feud was brewing.

“Enough!” Logan’s voice trembled with anger. His body hadn’t fully recovered, and he couldn’t exert himself. “Don’t think I don’t know about your schemes against Jared and Tina! Last time, I made you work as a security guard to teach you a lesson!”

Logan shook his head in disappointment. “But what did you learn? Nothing! You even dragged your son into it, plotting against Tina!”

“Dad! Arthur didn’t mean any harm! He just wants the best for the Farrell family!” Hazel tried to defend her husband, but Logan wouldn’t listen.

“I may be old, but I’m not blind or deaf. I’ve overlooked your past mistakes, but now you dare to target Tina? Don’t blame me for being ruthless!” Logan turned to the butler. “From today onwards, without my permission, they are not allowed back into our estate. Handle this matter properly!”

Arthur, Hazel, and Nathaniel were all stunned. What? They weren’t allowed back home? This indirectly meant that Arthur had lost Logan’s favor and was no longer a potential heir of the Farrell family!

“Dad, I was momentarily confused. Please don’t hold it against me.” Arthur quickly apologized. Seeing that Logan remained unmoved, he pulled Nathaniel over and scolded, “Apologize to your grandfather!”

“Why should I apologize? Grandfather is being biased!” Nathaniel stubbornly refused to admit his fault.

Arthur was so furious he nearly spat blood. He slapped Nathaniel hard several times and forced him to kneel on the ground.

Nathaniel was dizzy from the blows and could barely stay upright.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Why are you hitting him?” Hazel was heartbroken but didn’t dare act out in front of Logan. She whispered, “Nathaniel didn’t say anything wrong…”

Arthur ignored her and endured the humiliation as he pulled his son to apologize to Logan. “Dad, we’re family. Whatever happened earlier was Nathaniel’s mistake and has nothing to do with Miss Reed! We won’t pursue this matter further. Please calm down!”

Logan laughed angrily at this. “You won’t pursue it? You’ve caused such chaos in the family and still have the nerve to say you won’t pursue it?”

He pointed at Nathaniel while coughing and scolding, “You say I’m biased towards Tina? Let me tell you, I am biased! Having someone like Tina marry into our family is a blessing for us. If anyone dares trouble her again, they’ll be kicked out of the Farrell family!”

Arthur knelt on the ground, unable to believe Logan would disregard his own son for an outsider.

Nathaniel, with his face swollen from the beating and his mind reeling from anger, couldn’t accept this either.

Having been beaten and scolded without forgiveness from Logan made him furious.

“It’s all because of you!” He stood up in a rage and charged towards Tina, aiming to strangle her.

But before he could reach her, Jared kicked him hard in the groin.

“Ah!” Nathaniel screamed in pain and collapsed to the ground, clutching his groin.

Jared looked down at him coldly as if he were an insect. “This is what happens when you lay a hand on Tina.”

“Nathaniel!” Hazel was terrified and rushed over to check on her son.

Nathaniel was in so much pain that he couldn’t even speak; he just opened his mouth silently.

“This ends here,” Logan said sternly. “Take him to the hospital.”

“If anyone dares plot such disgraceful things again, don’t blame me for being merciless!” Logan’s meaning was clear: he would protect Jared and Tina at all costs.

Arthur glared resentfully at Logan and Tina before calling for servants to carry Nathaniel to the car and take him to the hospital.

“Tina, it’s our family’s fault,” Logan said apologetically after handling everything. “My eldest grandson is truly useless.”

“I thought he’d mature with age, but he still doesn’t know his limits.”

Tina wasn’t bothered by the drama she had witnessed. “Grandfather, it’s fine.”

Logan had made his stance clear; there was no need for her to press further.

“Yes, Nathaniel deserved punishment for his mistakes. Don’t be too upset,” Vivienne tried to smooth things over. “There’s an art exhibition coming up; why don’t we all go together as a way for our family to make amends?”

The tension finally eased a bit. Logan nodded in agreement. “Yes, you young ones should go together. Qingyan has great insights into art; you can all learn from each other.”

Tina used to visit art exhibitions occasionally but had been too busy lately. Now that Vivienne mentioned it, she didn’t mind going.

“Sure, I’m fine with that.”

“Yes! Spending time together is good for both families since we’ll all be one family soon!” Hugo finally stepped forward after standing aside for so long.

He expressed concern exaggeratedly. “I was so scared earlier! It’s good that you’re okay, Tina!”

This was Farrell family territory; Hugo hadn’t dared interfere during Arthur and Nathaniel’s outburst but now took the chance to show concern after things settled down.
