Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

After breakfast, the two went their separate ways. Tina rode her motorcycle alone to the Lyon family estate. Meanwhile, at the Lyon family home, Grandma Lyon was indeed unable to get out of bed. She had twisted her back while serving tea the previous day, and last night, a sudden turn almost broke her elderly bones. This morning, she found herself completely immobilized in bed.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Sonia was very concerned. “Mom, do you really want Tina to take care of you? Isn’t this like a lamb walking into a tiger’s den?”

Grandma Lyon pointed to the corner of the room. “Take a good look, what is that?”

Following the direction of Grandma Lyon’s finger, Sonia instantly understood. A hidden pinhole camera had been installed in the corner, disguised to look just like the plaster, almost indistinguishable unless examined closely. Someone unfamiliar with the Lyon family, like Tina, would never notice its secrecy.

If Tina simply cared for the patient without fuss, all would be well. It was merely to keep her confined here, away from causing trouble at the restaurant. But if she attempted to harm Grandma Lyon, she would only have herself to blame for her downfall. Names like Waverly Underwood, the perfumer Q, and master Irene would all be ruined!

Reassured, Sonia said, “Mom, take good care of yourself then. My brother, sister-in-law, and I are heading to the office.”

“Alright, go on.”

Soon after, Tina arrived at the Lyon family home. Apart from the butler and a few servants, only the bedridden Grandma Lyon was there. Tina, dressed in her motorcycle gear, entered and Grandma Lyon, with a cold huff, said, “Head of the family, forgive me, I can’t get up to greet you.”

Ignoring Grandma Lyon’s sarcastic tone, Tina sat beside the bed. “I heard you were injured, and it really pains me. How are you feeling now?”

Looking at the smile on Tina’s face made Grandma Lyon frown unconsciously. “Hmph, if you truly cared about me, you wouldn’t have treated me like that last night. As my granddaughter-in-law, you show no initiative, not even knowing I hadn’t eaten.”

Realizing the oversight, Tina responded, “Alright, I’ll go make you some food!”

With that, Tina headed to the kitchen to start preparing soup. Grandma Lyon was puzzled by Tina’s compliance today.

Before long, Tina brought the food she had prepared. “Come, let me feed you.”

As Tina helped Grandma Lyon sit up, her fingertips quietly pinched Grandma Lyon’s waist with a needle. Leaning against the headboard, Grandma Lyon remarked, “You have some conscience, making pumpkin porridge?”

“No, it’s egg yolk porridge,” Tina spooned it into Grandma Lyon’s mouth.

Immediately, Grandma Lyon spat it out. The egg yolk was completely raw, and there were even egg shells in it! Tina was clearly trying to harm her!

Grandma Lyon overturned the porridge and lashed out at Tina, thinking to teach her a lesson. She grabbed a nearby cane and swung it at Tina. “You must wish I were dead!”

Tina stepped back to the doorway, eyeing Grandma Lyon up and down. “Your back, it’s better?”

Only then did Grandma Lyon realize she was standing. Her back pain had indeed vanished.

With a secretive smile, Tina said, “Since you’re better, I’ll be leaving now.”

After a meaningful glance at the corner of the room, Tina turned and left.

Grandma Lyon had not expected her back to heal so quickly and knew she could not let Tina leave at that moment, so she stepped forward to stop her. However, she intentionally fell to the ground, making it seem at first glance as if Tina had pushed her. This fall paralyzed her already fragile back.

“You wretched Tina, how dare you push me, you heartless woman!” Grandma Lyon’s cry of alarm brought the butler and others running. The butler helped her up, scolding Tina, “Madam, how could you do this? Even as the head of the family, you can’t just take Mrs. Lyon’s life!”

Tina stood with her arms crossed, leaning against the doorframe, silently observing the scene. Grandma Lyon had really gone to great lengths to frame her. If she had stayed still, the injection she had received would have worked. But now, she was confined to a wheelchair.

“Tina, I am still your elder, how dare you treat me this way? You will face retribution!” Grandma Lyon shouted as the butler placed her in the wheelchair, only to find she couldn’t move at all. Despite her fake fall, she knew deep down she hadn’t hurt herself, so why couldn’t she move?

Tina chuckled, “We should take her to the hospital; there might still be hope.” Grandma Lyon pointed at Tina, “There, it must be your doing, oh…”

Grandma Lyon cried out, holding her back and shouting to the butler, “Hurry up and take me to the hospital.” It was only then that the butler realized Grandma Lyon had indeed fallen for real! He had been watching the surveillance and knew she had faked the fall, but she had actually injured herself this time. He quickly made calls to send her to the hospital and informed Warren and others to come immediately.

The Lyon family was in disarray, and Tina took the opportunity to search the Lyon family home undetected. Nathan had discovered several suspicious business dealings between the Lyon and Hancock families. She had hacked into the Lyon family company’s computer system overnight, finding that those transactions were not recorded in the company’s files. However, when she tried to break into the Hancock family’s system, she was blocked. Their firewall had been designed by her own mother!

Tina’s hacking skills came from Natalie’s teachings, though Natalie had not passed on all her knowledge before her suicide. Now, aside from Natalie’s firewalls, there were no systems Tina couldn’t breach. She was surprised to find that the Hancock family had connections with her mother. After her mother’s death ten years ago, the Hancock family had moved to Clearwater, leaving only some relatives to oversee their business in Ensford, with their headquarters now in Clearwater. What were the Hancock family originally looking for?

Unable to breach the Hancock family’s firewall, Tina focused on the Lyon family first. She found her way to Grandma Lyon’s study and discovered a safe with a combination lock. After cracking it open, she retrieved a document detailing business dealings with the Hancock family. The document was vague, written in a coded language that was difficult to translate without a key. Tina noted everything down and left the document exactly as she had found it.

At the hospital, members of the Lyon family arrived one after another. Warren was the first to shout, “Where is that wretched Tina? She pushed my mother and she’s not even showing her face. Does she think our Lyon family has no one left!”
