Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Mr. Stiller was fuming with anger, his face contorted as he spoke, “You want to make a fuss about this? Miss Reed obtained two PhDs from Kongham University by the age of sixteen. I went through great lengths to invite her here. How do you intend to be dissatisfied now?”

“Do you think it’s easy to have her come substitute? If it weren’t for our acquaintance, she wouldn’t have bothered to come at all. Do you still feel wronged and lose face over this?”

Mr. Stiller had thought that by saying this, the parents would back down, but to his surprise, not only did they not believe him, they even responded with sarcasm.

“Ha! Two PhDs from Kongham University at sixteen? Mr. Stiller, how much money did Tina pay you to lose all sense of decency? Who is Tina Reed? We may not know, but everyone in Ensford’s high society does, right?”

“That’s right, she left the Reed family with her rural mother at the age of nine and was raised in the mountains for ten years without ever coming down. Where did she study? Self-taught? You mean to tell us she’s a genius? That’s laughable.”

“Exactly! After the Reed family took her back in, even Elizabeth didn’t want to acknowledge her. If she’s really that outstanding, why wouldn’t Elizabeth throw a celebration banquet?”

“You!” Mr. Stiller was beside himself with rage. He wanted to defend Tina, but when she joined the staff, she hadn’t brought her diploma.

It wasn’t that Tina didn’t bring it; he hadn’t asked for it.

Tina was here to be the Lead Teacher for class 22D, not to give lectures. There was no need for a diploma, and he was confident in Tina’s qualifications.

Caught off guard by the parents’ accusations, he was at a loss for a comeback.

Looking at the parents, Mr. Stiller was seething with anger. He pulled out his phone, ready to call Tina to bring her doctoral diploma and throw it in these people’s faces to prove she didn’t get the job through the back door.

As soon as the call connected, a ringtone sounded from outside the office.

Tina, not expecting Mr. Stiller to call her at this time, was somewhat embarrassed.

She hung up and entered the office.

“Mr. Stiller.”

Seeing her enter, Mr. Stiller immediately approached, “Miss Reed, did you bring your certificate?”

“No.”

Who carries their diploma around all the time?

“Could you go back and get it?” Mr. Stiller whispered beside her, “You’ve seen it; these parents are saying some really nasty things.”

Mr. Stiller, although the head of the school, could only manage the school’s affairs. These parents, with their status and position, wouldn’t listen to him.

Only by showing Tina’s diploma could he shut them up.

“I could bring it, but do you think it would make a difference?” Tina’s lips curled into a mocking smile.

These people had made up their minds about her from the start, thinking she didn’t deserve to be a teacher.

Even if she brought her diploma, they would find other reasons to doubt, even suspecting it was fake.

“Are you Tina Reed?” While Tina and Mr. Stiller were talking, a parent suddenly asked her.

Tina looked at her, her expression cool, “I am.”

“I hope you have the decency to leave Ensford High School. You are not fit to teach our children!”

Tina glanced at her, “I’m paid by Mr. Stiller. Unless he asks me to leave, I won’t go.”

The parent frowned, “Are you deliberately opposing us? Think carefully. Our families are no less influential than the Reed family. If we unite against you, not only will you not be able to stay at Ensford High School, but the Reed family won’t be able to stay in Ensford either.”

“Are you threatening me?” Tina was smiling, her eyes narrowing into slits, but her smile did not reach her eyes.

“Yes, I am threatening you!” The parent lifted her chin proudly, “If you know what’s good for you, leave Ensford High School. Otherwise, don’t blame us. It’s a critical time for our children’s exams. They cannot be influenced by you.”

“Oh!” Tina’s brows tightened, then she suddenly looked up, “Which family are you from?”

The parent frowned, then lifted her head proudly, “The Kampwerth family.”

The Kampwerth family was in the garment business, having developed their brand into a second-tier label over many years.

The present Mrs. Kampwerth, always liked to compare herself with other high society ladies, acting superior.

In terms of family status, the Kampwerth family did not compare to the Reed family.

However, the Kampwerthfamily was financially robust, and if it came down to finances, the Reed family couldn’t compete with the Kampwerth family.

Especially now, without a good perfume formula and a significant investment, the Reed family would soon face bankruptcy.NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Tina stepped forward, approaching Mrs. Kampwerth with an even tone, “You see, I have a little quirk; I extremely dislike being threatened. Mrs. Kampwerth, you seem quite idle, let me find something for you to do.”

Before Mrs. Kampwerth could reply, Tina took out her phone and made a call, “Jimmy, someone’s threatening me.”

On the other end of the phone, James Heart, the chairman of Mendara Group, stood up abruptly, “Who is it!”

Messing with his Serena, he could guarantee that the offender would meet an ugly end!

“Kampwerth family.”

“Wait, Serena, I’ll avenge you!”

“Alright, you alone are enough.”

James Heart was about to gather his brothers, but hearing Tina’s words, he relented, “Okay, I got it.”

After hanging up, James Heart immediately called his assistant and threw a check at him, “Put two billion dollars into it, target the Kampwerth family. If any of them still has the energy to jump around, it’s your fault!”

The assistant trembled, “I’ll get on it right away!”

He then ran off in a hurry.

Had the Kampwerth family gone mad?

Their chairman hadn’t gone after another company in a long time, and now they had stepped on his tail!

Mrs. Kampwerth, after overhearing Tina’s call, scoffed, “Trying to scare me? Go ahead and try, see if you can intimidate me. Do you think that will let you continue teaching here? Dream on!”

Tina pinched the bridge of her nose, speaking indifferently, “I’ve never thought that you had the power to decide whether I stay or leave.”

“You!”

Mrs. Kampwerth was enraged and about to lash out when a teacher burst in, excitedly announcing, “Mr. Stiller, Professor Lininger’s team has arrived.”

At this news, Tina glanced at the time on her phone-eight o’clock on the dot, not a minute more or less.

Professor Lininger was indeed punctual, arriving exactly at eight.

The other parents, upon hearing this, forgot their dispute with Mr. Stiller over Tina and wore smiles, eager to meet Professor Lininger and hoping to get their children noticed.

“Please, let them in,” Mr. Stiller said with excitement.

Soon, the teacher led Professor Lininger’s team into the office.

Mr. Stiller’s office was quite spacious, but with the addition of these parents and Professor Lininger’s team, it became cramped.

Upon entering, Professor Lininger spotted Tina, “Tina, it’s so good to see you. Let me have a look, do you eat more recently? You used to be so thin!”

The parents who had intended to greet Professor Lininger heard this and froze, their eyes wide with disbelief, unable to muster any response.
