Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Lily looked at the people from the X Bureau, terrified out of her wits. Her mind was filled with images of that closed room from before, and fear spread through her heart. She instinctively took a step back, her voice trembling, “I… I… didn’t you investigate thoroughly? I didn’t research the virus, why are you arresting me again?”

She was very scared. She didn’t want to go back to that room.

The team leader looked at her with a stern face, “You are suspected of attempting to murder the captain of the X Bureau. We are arresting you according to the law!” He showed the arrest warrant.

Lily’s eyes widened in shock, “What are you talking about? When did I try to murder the captain of the X Bureau? I clearly…”

She clearly wanted to kill Tina! How could Tina be the captain of the X Bureau?

The team leader remained serious, “Jared is the captain of our X Bureau special operations team. At three o’clock, you had someone place a steel rod aimed at Captain Farrell, intending to murder him. Please come with us.”

“What!” Lily and the Reed family were completely stunned. Jared was actually the captain of the X Bureau! Who said he was useless? How could a useless person become the captain of the X Bureau special operations team?

Standing not far away, Jasper’s eyes narrowed. Jared’s identity was beyond his expectations. He had been focusing on Tina and had forgotten about this guy.

“No, it’s not…” Lily snapped back to reality and looked at the team leader in a panic, “That wasn’t me!”

“Take her away!” The team leader didn’t give her a chance to explain. Two fully armed men immediately took Lily away without saying a word.

Willow wanted to stop them but wilted when she saw the people from the X Bureau.

After the people from the X Bureau left, peace returned to the Reed family.

Logan slowly stood up from his chair and glanced coldly at Muff, whose eyes were vacant. “You always say you’re better than me and compete with me in everything. Besides your taste in women being better than mine, what else do you have over me?” Logan snorted coldly, “Look at what kind of wife you found? After all these years, you didn’t realize she was such a vicious person.”

Muff sat weakly in his chair for the first time without rebutting Logan’s words.

Logan couldn’t be bothered with him either. “Although I didn’t personally kill Annabelle to avenge Sydney, she got her punishment. I need to go light some incense for Sydney and tell her this news.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Muff suddenly stood up, “I’ll go with you!”

Logan didn’t say much more; he just snorted and turned to leave.

Muff immediately followed him.

The Reed family members slowly came back to their senses.

Juliet and her siblings were frightened by all the blood on the ground.

Jasper and Garrett remained silent; neither spoke a word.

Damian was the first to react and said, “Let’s arrange grandmother’s funeral first.”

The body had been taken by the criminal police but would be returned eventually. No matter what Annabelle did, they were her family and needed to handle her funeral.

Jasper finally raised his eyes and scanned everyone before instructing Damian in a deep voice, “You handle the funeral arrangements.”

Then he looked at Tina, “Come with me to my room; we need to talk.”

There was no trace of grief for his mother’s death on his face.

Tina glanced at him indifferently and said coldly, “I will talk with you, but not now.”

She then walked over to Juliet and pressed her lips together slightly, “Do you blame me?”

Tina had no blood relation with anyone in the Reed family and felt no affection for them. Her reason for coming to the Reed family was solely to find out why her mother died.

She had never been soft-hearted in doing things; she never intended to spare anyone in the Reed family from the start. But she did have different feelings for Juliet and her siblings because they always stood by her side helping her even though she didn’t need their help. But she could never be ruthless towards anyone who showed her kindness.

Sure enough! Soft-hearted people can’t achieve great things.

Juliet looked at Tina with her mouth open but didn’t know what to say for a long time. After a while, she forced a smile, “From a moral standpoint, I don’t blame you; grandmother killed ten people and should pay for her actions. But from a familial perspective, I can’t understand it; she is your grandmother too. Even if she’s guilty, you could have reported her and let the police arrest her instead of killing her on the spot.”

As Juliet spoke, she suddenly started crying. She shook her head, “I don’t know what to do anymore; everyone in this family has changed. Everyone wears a mask now; I don’t want to stay here anymore; I’m leaving.”

With that said, Juliet turned around and ran off.

Tina lowered her eyes slightly; her long eyelashes fluttered gently as she pressed her lips together again before looking at Damian and others. “Blame those who did wrong; everyone must pay for their actions-no one can escape!”

With that said, she left with Jared without lingering any longer.

A few hours later…

Ashbury police announced that they had solved an old case where ten people were burned to death in a fire years ago-the culprit was Annabelle Reed. She resisted arrest and attacked law enforcement officers before being shot dead on site!

Initially, this information wasn’t going public but due to gunshots heard at Reed family’s place during Annabelle’s removal witnessed by many people leading various voices online demanding justice-the police had no choice but release an official statement!

However once this announcement came out-it caused an uproar online!

“Grandma Reed committed murder? What kind of international joke is this? She’s such a kind person-how could she possibly kill someone? She must have offended powerful people which led to this outcome-@AshburyPolice must give Grandma Reed justice!”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“I’m standing up for Grandma Reed! Under protection umbrellas-even someone like Grandma Reed can become collateral damage-how are ordinary people supposed to survive? @AshburyPolice please provide reasonable explanations otherwise we will fight for justice for Grandma Reed!”

“What nonsense! Are some of you blind? Can’t see it’s about an old case from twenty years ago? This old lady killed people then disguised herself as philanthropist-you really think she’s kind-hearted? Anyway-I could tell right away something was off about that old lady.”

“Yes! The announcement came from Ashbury Police-who has enough power make them their shield? If this old lady wasn’t guilty why hasn’t anyone from Reed family spoken up yet? Don’t any of you use your brains?”

Online opinions were sharply divided-some believed in Grandma’s innocence while others trusted Ashbury Police, leading heated debates until finally police released evidence directly…
