Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Jared looked into Tina's glittering eyes and realized he might have said something wrong.

The girl was clearly looking forward to it.

Tina laughed, stepped forward, and wrapped her arms around Jared's neck, kissing him on the lips intermittently while making sharp remarks. Not one kiss more than necessary! Tina was a true businesswoman, adhering strictly to contract terms and practicing integrity to the utmost. She was known as a conscientious merchant!

Jared, with one hand around Tina's waist, pushed her down onto the couch.

The majestic aura of the man filled the office; his broad palm gripped Tina's slender waist, while his other hand supported him on the couch, his face drawing ever closer. Tina, still embracing Jared's neck with intertwined fingers, arched her back.

She curved her lips, her cunning gaze lingering for a few seconds on Jared's hormone-fueled face.

Suddenly, she pressed her hands forcefully against the back of Jared's head, pushing him down.

Foreplay seemed unnecessary.

Their lips entwined, the rising tension cascading down like a waterfall, weaving into streams scattered across a starry sea.

Jared's hand on the couch slightly bent, his fingers straining to control the desires stirring within.

This was the office.

Outside were many employees.

He must not act impulsively.

He must not act impulsively!

The restraint resulted in Jared's lips, honeyed and irresistible, unable to leave those floral fields.

A sudden ringtone from the phone went unnoticed by them, still entangled with each other.

Once, twice, the persistent ringing finally annoyed the frustrated Mr. Farrell.

Without looking, Jared grabbed the phone and growled, "Speak!"

The person on the other end paused, then started crying, sounding somewhat aggrieved, "Jared, why are you angry? Did I upset you?"

It was then Jared glanced at the caller ID; it was Sophia.

His tone softened, "No, I didn't see the caller ID. Sorry, Sophia. You've called several times; is something the matter?"

Tina also sat up; the office was very quiet, and Sophia's crying was quite loud, so she heard clearly.

Jared soothed Sophia for a long while until her emotions gradually stabilized, and she slowly revealed the purpose of her call.

"Jared, Mom found a doctor for Stephanie, but the doctor said her face can't be restored. Stephanie is now hiding in her room crying. Mom looks very worried."

Marie had found the best plastic surgeon, but the scars on Stephanie's face were mixed with Old Kris's poison and had become infected over time, leaving no hope for recovery. Several doctors had said the same.

This dealt a huge blow to Stephanie, who had recently been the center of attention at school.

At Kongham University, the students had even started a humorous student ranking, and Stephanie, living up to expectations, topped the list!

Now, knowing her face couldn't be healed, she had locked herself in her room all day; Marie had stayed up all night without seeing her come out.

Now she was frantically calling for Stephanie to open the door.

Jared frowned; he knew Stephanie wouldn't settle down easily.

"Tell Mom to let her be," he said.

Sophia sighed like an adult, "Mom gets soft-hearted even watching videos of stray puppies online, let alone Stephanie. How can she possibly just let her be?"

As they were talking, Marie suddenly screamed over the phone, "Help! Help!"

Jared's eyes narrowed. "Sophia, what happened?"

Sophia shrieked, "Oh my God, there's so much blood, it looks like Stephanie has tried to kill herself!"

Jared cursed under his breath. Stephanie could do whatever she wanted as long as she didn't scare his mother and sister!

"I'm coming over now."

Jared hung up the phone and rushed to the scene, with Tina following him.

"Tina, I'll take you home, you don't need to come."

It was clear as day that Stephanie's actions were aimed at Tina.

A suicide attempt, how ridiculous.

She had begged her way to Ashbury, enduring humiliation all along the way without killing herself, and the scars on her face weren't new.

A suicide attempt now?

She just wanted to make Marie swallow her pride and ask Tina for help.

Tina was well aware of this, "It's okay, I don't want Marie to be sad."

"I don't want you to compromise yourself," Jared said seriously to Tina.

He would never allow Tina to indulge others out of compassion, giving them a chance to cling to her.

Even if it was his own family member!

He would never let her do anything she disliked.

Tina smiled nonchalantly, "Uncle, I'm not at all compromised, in fact, I find it quite amusing."

Jared sighed deeply, instantly understanding Tina's attitude.

He playfully tapped Tina's nose, his tone filled with boundless fondness, "Always playing."

Tina blinked and playfully tugged at Jared's chin, "If not for fun, what should one like? For beauty, perhaps?"

Jared held Tina's hand, seriously responding, "Yes, liking beauty is fine. I am the most beautiful."

Tina burst out laughing.

She hadn't realized before how narcissistic Jared could be!

But she liked it.

Stephanie was rushed to the emergency room with a five-millimeter deep gash on her wrist from a vase.

The shard had cut a blood vessel, and she had also swallowed sleeping pills. When Jared and Tina arrived, she was still being resuscitated.

Marie, anxious, waited outside the door, surprised to see Tina, "Tina, why did you come?"

"I was worried about you," Tina said, helping Marie to sit down. "Marie, I checked the medical records when I arrived. She should be out soon."

True enough, two minutes later, the doors of the emergency room opened, and Stephanie, still unconscious, was wheeled out.

"Doctor, my niece is all right, isn't she?" Marie asked.

The doctor shook his head, "She's fine, her stomach's been pumped, and she'll be okay once she wakes up, but be careful, her stomach was already weak and is now even more fragile, prone to disease." Marie was deeply worried. It had taken so much effort to nurse Stephanie back to health, and now this had happened.

In the hospital room, Stephanie had not yet awakened, and Marie sat by her side, a look of worry etched on her face.

She was considering finding a psychologist for Stephanie, slowly treating the facial scars. There had to be a way, but the thought of suicide must not reappear.

Tina looked over Stephanie's medical record, noting the whole bottle of sleeping pills she had consumed.

She had thought there might be some vitamins mixed in, but Stephanie had truly been ruthless.
