Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 236: Jasper Reed Arrives In the car, Tina heard Jasper Reed's words. Her willow-like eyebrows slightly raised, and her red lips curved into a faint smile. She was smiling, but it didn't reach her eyes; it was somewhat mocking. She leaned lazily against the car door, looking at Jasper Reed without saying a word.

"Mr. Reed," Jared said, rolling up his sleeves in a slow, deliberate manner with a hint of sarcasm in his tone. "Are you sure you haven't made a mistake this time?" "I've done a paternity test, and I supervised the entire process until the results cout. There's no mistake this time," Jasper Reed said earnestly.

When the expedited paternity test report cout, his suspicions were confirmed. Overjoyed, he immediately sought out Hugo's family. However, he learned that Tina had already gone to Ashbury, so he hurried there to find her. In Ashbury, he searched for Tina for two days. Considering that Tina was Jared's fiancée, he even went to the Farrell family but found neither Tina nor Jared.

Just now, someone reported seeing Jared driving back to the city from the suburbs, so he immediately had them intercepted. In his excitement, he realized that the scene had drawn curious looks from passersby.

"If you don't believe me, you can have Tina followto a medical institution under the Farrell family for another paternity test," Jasper Reed said with a tone of regained joy. "Jared, I want to take Tina home; everyone in the family is waiting for her." "Whether she goes back to the Reed family or not isn't up to you or me," Jared said indifferently as he glanced at Tina, whose expression remained calm. "It's up to Tina." "Tina," Jasper Reed called out to her with both relief and excitement in his voice. "I'm your father. I've cto take you home." Tina opened the rear car door and got out silently, hands in her pockets as she looked at Jasper Reed. Seeing her finally get out of the car, Jasper Reed breathed a sigh of relief, tears welling up in his eyes.

"I know you're angry because I mistook someone else for you before," he said. "But I've always suspected that Tina's identity was falsified. Every twe did a paternity test, Elizabeth swapped the samples, which delayed us from discovering the truth." "Do you know? All these years, I've been searching for you and your mother everywhere you might have gone. Now that I've finally found you... but your mother is already..." Jasper Reed sighed deeply.

Tina listened with little interest, her face revealing nothing of what she was thinking. When he finished speaking, she asked plainly, "Have you been to Jade Gardens?" "Yes," Jasper Reed immediately understood her meaning and nodded. "Rest assured, I've properly thanked your adoptive parents." When he met Hugo, he felt a pang of jealousy. He childishly scrutinized Hugo from head to toe and compared himself several times over.

Natalie had suddenly eloped back then and married Hugo instead of him, which made him very unhappy. He couldn't understand what he had done wrong or what Hugo had over him that made Natalie choose him for life.

What frustrated him more was that this man had been so useless as to let Elizabeth drive Natalie and her daughter out of their hfor ten years. But since Natalie was gone now, there was no point in dwelling on it. Though Hugo hadn't done well by Natalie and Tina, he had at least sheltered them from sstorms. So in the end, Jasper Reed sincerely thanked him.

Tina lifted her cold eyes slightly and gave Jasper Reed a brief once-over. As the head of the Reed family and a veteran of business battles, he exuded an undeniable aura of authority. His sharp features added an extra layer of toughness. He was well-preserved; despite being nearly fifty years old, his face showed no signs of aging. Tina sneered mockingly. While she and her mother wandered outside, her father-who appeared so deeply affectionate to outsiders-never forgot to maintain himself daily.

He claimed to love her mother deeply; how deep could that love be? Only he knew.

Tina withdrew her gaze and said lightly, "Let's go back then." Going back to the Reed family was inevitable! Even if Jasper Reed hadn't clooking for her, she would have taken the paternity test results there herself! Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on 00005sfor uninterrupted enjoyment.

She didn't believe that someone as formidable as her mother would commit suicide without reason.

They had been hunted for so long; her mother always managed to turn danger into safety and successfully escape with her. Yet after receiving one phone call, she poisoned herself! Her mother loved her dearly; how could she bear to leave her alone? Her mother's death might be related to GTO; they had hunted them for years without success. So she didn't think GTO alone was responsible.

She had investigated Ensford's Reed family; everything seemed normal! Only Ashbury's Reed family remained- whether they were human or ghost would soon be revealed. "Alright then... let's go back..." Jasper Reed was momentarily stunned before reacting. "Go back where?" Tina raised an eyebrow and smiled mockingly. "What? Mr. Reed doesn't plan on takingback to the Reed family? Or do I not deserve to step into your family's door?" "No! That's not what I meant." Jasper Reed panicked instantly. "I mean... are you coming back with me?" For sreason, every the met Tina's eyes, he felt pressured. She was only nineteen but could make people feel immense pressure.

"What else?" Tina looked at him expressionlessly.

"Alright then." Overjoyed, Jasper Reed moved to lead Tina to his car.

"Tina," Jared said plaintively from where he'd been sidelined. "My back hurts." Tina paused; hadn't she asked him twice before if anything was wrong? "My rib might be broken," Jared said weakly while clutching his left side. "I need you to check it." So Tina turned towards Jasper Reed again; Jared followed suit in looking at his new prospective father-in-law.

Jasper Reed frowned subtly but hid it well enough not to show overtly. He had thoroughly investigated Tina's background and knew from Hugo that Natalie had arranged this engagement between Tina and Jared long ago. He didn't dismiss Jared as just another pampered playboy living off Logan's favor like others might think. Knowing Natalie's judgmental acumen meant choosing Jared held deeper significance than apparent surface value alone.

But no matter how one looked at it-especially through an old man's eyes-their daughter's suitor never seemed good enough initially anyway! Moreover-his precious little girl hadn't even chyet before being claimed by someone else already...

Still-he couldn't hide disdain completely within gaze-but ultimately nodded approval saying: "Alright then-Jared can accompany Tina htoo."
