Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Chapter 346: Mr. Reed, Please Come with Us



Within just two hours, all online mentions of Lily Ward being the daughter of the Reed family had disappeared. Only headlines like “Where is Natalie?” remained, flooding the entire internet. But two hours later, an explosive tweet was sent out. The author was Ember Saffron.

“I am Ember Saffron. I am friends with Tina, and I know that her mother died ten years ago because someone was chasing after them, resulting in her mother’s death. This has been a painful memory for Tina, and I have never mentioned it to her again. But today, after seeing Mr. Reed’s tweet, I highly suspect Jasper and Willow of plotting to harm their lives. I formally report them to the police and hope that they will thoroughly investigate the truth and bring justice to Tina!”

Ember Saffron was a superstar on stage, with nearly a billion fans. When this tweet was posted, the entire internet exploded. All of his fans began sharing it. Even popular celebrities in the industry one after another retweeted it. In no time, the entire server crashed due to the influence of these stars and their fans. This caught the attention of the Ashbury police.

At Whispering Pines during breakfast time, most of the Reed family had gathered, except for Arthur who couldn’t come due to work commitments. However, everyone’s faces were grim. It was because Jasper’s post had confirmed Lily’s identity, leading netizens to speculate that Natalie might have been killed by Jasper and Willow, causing the Reed family to be attacked.

Early in the morning, someone threw eggs and vegetables at the gate of Whispering Pines. It was only when the Reed family deployed security that things calmed down. At this moment, no one had seen Ember Saffron’s tweet yet.

Tina had just come downstairs and hadn’t even settled down when Juliet suddenly exclaimed, “Oh no! Ember Saffron posted something!” Tina paused for a moment, feeling speechless. What was this guy trying to do?

Garrett furrowed his brows and asked, “Ember Saffron has nothing to do with the Reed family. Why is everyone making such a big deal out of his post?”

Juliet placed her phone on the table for Garrett to see and said, “Ember Saffron is friends with Tina. He is standing up for her! Jasper, look at what you’ve done!”

Ember Saffron was a top-tier celebrity; if he posted something, it would explode across the internet! She never expected Jasper to do something so foolish! What was so good about that Lily? Because of her, the Reed family was being attacked by everyone! Not only were they being attacked, but Tina’s social media accounts were also filled with insults. In just two hours, she lost a million followers! Fans were cursing the Reed family and claiming that apart from Tina, none of them were good people! She didn’t care about losing followers or being cursed at; after all, what Jasper did was unfair to Tina! But she did care that the entire Reed family was being attacked because of Lily. She was simply a disaster!

“What?” Garrett picked up his phone and glanced at the serious posts on social media. He realized that all social media platforms were filled with calls for Ashbury police to investigate the truth. He slumped back into his chair.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Annabelle also took a look at her phone and almost fainted. She threw her phone at Jasper and slammed the table in anger, exclaiming, “This is a calamity!”

Jasper only glanced briefly at Ember Saffron’s social media content without any expression on his face. He then looked up at Tina, who slowly walked over and sat down in front of him with an indifferent attitude. As Tina sat down, she looked directly into his eyes without any avoidance.

The two stared at each other for a long time before Jasper spoke slowly, “Tina, do you also believe what they are saying on social media?”

“Whether it’s true or not doesn’t matter; my words won’t change anything!” Tina withdrew her gaze and picked up her chopsticks, focusing on eating her food in a calm tone.

She was the only one at the table who could still eat.

Jasper continued to stare at her and asked, “So you asked Ember Saffron to post that tweet to get the police’s attention?”

Tina’s fingers paused slightly as she turned her head to look at Jasper with a cold expression. “Mr. Reed, what makes you think that I asked Ember Saffron to do it?”

“Isn’t it true?” Jasper looked at her as if trying to see through her.

Tina sneered, “It doesn’t matter whether it is or not.”

She put down her chopsticks and stood up in front of Jasper, looking down at him from above. “My mother didn’t run away to Ensford; she ran away for her life to Ensford. Mr. Reed, would you care to explain why she had to run for her life?”

Jasper’s eyes flickered slightly as he met her gaze.

Tina curled her lips into an evil smile and said coldly, “No rush! I have plenty of time. The game of cat and mouse-mice can never escape from a cat’s claws, right? Mr. Reed?”

Jasper continued staring at her without saying a word.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Soon enough, several uniformed individuals entered.

After showing their credentials, they spoke officially: “Ashbury Police Department. Mr. Reed, you are suspected in a murder case. Please come with us for questioning.”

Jasper glanced at them and slowly stood up. “I understand.”

He didn’t say anything else but followed the two law enforcement officers out.

With Jasper taken away, everyone in the Reed family panicked.

Annabelle immediately stood in front of Tina and held her hand. “Tina, I know you have grievances from being away from home all these years. But please believe me when I say your father had nothing to do with your mother’s death. Please go explain the situation to the police.”

Esther also spoke up: “Yes, even though your father didn’t marry your mother officially, we all know that he only had your mother in his heart. It’s impossible for him to have killed her.”

Luna added: “Are you angry because your father acknowledged Lily? In this matter, he is also innocent when it comes down to it; it was Willow and Liliosa who did everything wrong. Lily has been confirmed as your father’s child; he couldn’t just ignore it right? Tina, please inform the police and ask Ember Saffron to delete his tweet for your father’s sake.”

The rest of the Reed family pleaded with Tina except for Juliet, Damian, and Griffin.

Regardless of whether Tina had anything to do with this matter or not didn’t give them the right to beg for mercy from Tina when someone else’s mother had died right in front of their eyes when they were nine years old. This hatred wouldn’t disappear just because someone said that Jasper wasn’t the killer; there needed to be evidence!

Juliet looked up at Tina and suddenly understood something; she had returned to seek revenge against the Reed family! But at the same time, she felt a bit sorry for her! If something like this happened to herself… maybe she would make the same choice as Tina!

Tina calmly withdrew her hand from Annabelle’s grasp without any expression on her face as she spoke: “The police will bring justice for Mr. Reed!”

Her plan didn’t include sending Jasper to the police station!

But still, she implicitly approved of Ember Saffron’s actions.

Of course!

It also didn’t matter if Jasper would come out unharmed in due time.
