Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Joshua slammed his phone to the ground and stomped on it several times.

“I’ve lost; you can arrest me now,” Joshua said lazily, raising his hands and tilting his head to look at Jared.

The next second, he moved his lips and viciously bit down on the poison capsule in his teeth.

He had always known this day would come.

Even in suicide, he would never let Jared arrest him!

Joshua spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt on the ground, the light fading from his eyes beneath his gold-rimmed glasses, “Jared, you’ll never find out who the real boss of GTO is in this lifetime.”

He chuckled, his laughter sounding like that of a ghost from hell, echoing in the dark alley, sending chills down one’s spine.

However, the expected agony did not come.

This was the lethal poison given to him by Five Poisons, meant to kill upon contact-how could this be…

Joshua looked up and saw the dumbfounded expression on Tina’s face, and he understood.

It was her, Spectre.

Tina walked up to him, looking down from above with an air of royalty, “Wanted to die?”

Joshua glared at her fiercely, “You and I have no grievances; my death brings you no harm!”

Tina smiled, her smile as radiant as a blooming flower, then her expression sobered, and a murderous aura enveloped her, “Whether you die or not doesn’t really matter to me. You wanted to kill Uncle, and I did want you dead, but-”

She suddenly smiled again, “Since you wish to die, I won’t grant your wish.”

Joshua narrowed his eyes, looking at Tina with resentment, “If I want to die, there are plenty of ways.”

Tina brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, her captivating eyes slightly lifting as she spoke calmly, “The poison I administered is called Mandrake. It controls your neural functions; if you attempt suicide, it will take over your body. Besides that…”

She paused, then continued, “It will torment you, attacking your internal organs for two hours every day, yet it won’t cause any physical damage. Enjoy the rest of your days!”

Joshua’s pupils shook.

Had it been before, he wouldn’t have believed Tina’s words.

But knowing she was Spectre, he believed she had the capability to concoct such a tormenting poison.

Death, he did not fear!

What he feared was the daily mental and physical torture, and being unable to die despite wanting to.

Tina saw the fear on his face and was quite pleased. She squatted down to meet Joshua’s gaze at eye level, her voice clear yet piercingly cold, “To mess with me is to die, but to mess with those I care for is worse than death, Tiger. If there’s a next life, remember to strike me first; you might die a bit quicker!”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Her voice steady, it reached every ear present. Looking up at her, the sunlight perfectly illuminated her stunning features, a mix of cold pride and dominance.

At that moment, everyone decided never to provoke the person Tina cared most about, for a fate worse than death was truly agonizing.

Jared’s heart pounded fiercely, overwhelmed by the love of such a woman.

Tina gave him all her love, and for the rest of his life, he was determined to be worthy of Tina.

Tina no longer spoke much with Joshua, standing up and walking over to Jared.

Jared naturally took her hand, and with his other hand, he signaled to the members of the X Bureau waiting outside. Following his signal, the X Bureau agents rushed in and subdued Joshua.

Logan looked at Joshua, pursed his lips, and despite his reluctance, asked again, “Joshua, why on earth would you do this?”

Is the allure of being the heir to the Farrell family so great?

His sons, each one of them, coveted that position.

The Farrell family was indeed the foremost wealthy family in Ashbury, but not the most elite in the country.

The truly powerful families were those hidden ones.

The Farrell family could at most boast of its wealth, and if there was any real power, aside from Jared being the captain of the X Bureau… now the deputy director, the Farrell family had no significant influence.

Moreover, Jared was always fair and never bent the law for personal gain. It could be said that the Farrell family had no connections even in the government.

He couldn’t understand why his sons were so desperate to fight over it to the point of destruction.

Joshua, now handcuffed, bent slightly and looked up at his father, “You don’t need to know.”

With that, he was escorted away.

Logan took a deep breath and resigned himself to the situation, thinking he was getting old.

Jared also holstered his gun, his stern face showing no emotion.

Until today, he had never believed that Joshua could indeed be Tiger.

For the first time, he doubted his own decisions.

It wasn’t someone else; it was Joshua, his most trusted family member!

He had doubted many, but never Uncle Joshua.

If it weren’t for Uncle Joshua’s return revealing too many inconsistencies, he would never have suspected him.

He had never imagined that the person who cared for him the most also wanted to kill him the most.

At that moment, Joshua, now in the detention vehicle, shouted, “Jared, do you really think I only had the hostage plan? Listen carefully, the countdown has started.”

The door was shut, and Joshua’s miserable laughter was cut off.

Tina and Jared’s eyes narrowed.

Instantly, Tina said, “Orson, take Grandpa and leave, there’s a bomb here!”

Orson panicked for a moment, and before he could react, Abigail grabbed him and began running, shouting to Asher, “Asher, hurry and take Father away!”

Asher also reacted quickly, hurrying Logan away.

After they left, Tina, Jared, and a few members of the special forces team searched the Farrell Residence.

Bombs were found in various boxes placed in the living room corner, under the sofa, and in the middle of the liquor cabinet, among other locations.

No one could determine how many bombs Joshua had placed in the Farrell Residence, and the detectors couldn’t pinpoint them, so they searched aimlessly.

Abigail ran in and shouted to Tina, “Tina, I know where the bombs are, he placed them with me.”

Tina looked at Abigail, who opened the stairway door and took out a box, saying, “We have a tradition of surprising each other. Yesterday, to calm me down, he said we should play a game of hiding gifts, and he had me place boxes all around the house.”

Everyone followed Abigail and found all the bombs, locating all thirty just as the countdown reached the last ten seconds.

“Thirty in total, he wanted to blow up everything within a hundred miles,” Cole wiped his sweat, realizing the gravity of the situation if Joshua hadn’t spoken up.
