Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Grandma Lyon was the first to pick up the milk tea and start drinking; seeing this, the others had no choice but to follow suit. It wasn’t until the milk tea cups were empty that Tina stood up, flicked her fingers lightly, and said, “Let’s call it a day. Rest well, everyone. See you tomorrow.” After that, Tina and Jared left the Lyon family and returned to the house Jack had prepared for them to sleep.

No sooner had they left than Grandma Lyon, not even bothering to grab her walking stick, ran to the bathroom and began to vomit. The rest of the Lyon family did the same, causing the servants to cover their noses and mouths in disgust. It was nauseating. So many people vomiting at once was a sight, and Connor even threw up on Grandma Lyon’s favorite wool carpet.

The whole Lyon family was already filled with a strange smell from the hotpot and barbecue, and now with so many people vomiting up what they had just eaten, the stench was overwhelming. They vomited for over half an hour before they could finally settle back on the couches. The fine wool carpet was thrown into the trash, much to Grandma Lyon’s dismay.

Warren leaned his head against his wife’s shoulder and retched a few more times. Megan, disgusted, pushed him away, “Get away from me, you reek of decay. It’s disgusting.” Warren slapped Megan weakly, not from reluctance but sheer exhaustion, “You whore, you think you don’t smell?”

“How dare you hit me! Do you believe I’ll divorce you?” Megan yelled, her voice so loud she nearly passed out. Everyone was too dehydrated from vomiting to have the energy to chastise anyone else.

Grandma Lyon leaned on the couch, took a sip of water handed to her by a servant, and said weakly, “Stop quarreling.” Oliver finally spoke up, “Mom, if you hadn’t eaten, we wouldn’t have eaten so much. Why did you just go along with it?”

“Exactly, Grandma. You saw how much we were eating, and yet you just kept eating, forcing us to follow suit,” Eric complained as well. Grandma Lyon sighed, “Do you really think I wanted to eat?”

Everyone was stunned. Sonia looked at her mother, confused, “Mom, what do you mean?” Oliver added, “It’s the same for me. It wasn’t my intention to eat, but my hand moved on its own, grabbing food and putting it in my mouth.”

“I couldn’t even speak,” Andrew choked out, “Dad, could we be cursed?” Megan and Connor felt the same. Megan said, “I feel that way too. It was like being possessed. When Tina said stand, I stood; when she sat, I sat and kept eating, even though I was aware of what was happening.”

Stephanie shrank closer to Oliver, a bit scared, “Don’t frighten me, not this late at night.” “Don’t forget who that Tina is,” Grandma Lyon said calmly. Before Jared and Tina arrived in Clearwater, Grandma Lyon had thoroughly checked Tina’s background. Or at least, she thought she had. What they could find was only what Tina allowed to be seen.

Sonia realized, “Before Tina came to Ashbury, she spent ten years in a mountain in Ensford. She might have learned some sinister tricks there to harm us.”

Stephanie exclaimed, “I said my brother is such an outstanding man, how could he fall for a country girl? She must have cast some kind of spell on him. What are we going to do?”NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

“What else can we do? We can’t handle a little country girl? Just remember, this is Ensford, not Ashbury. Even Jared has to think twice before acting here.”

Connor cursed, filled with hatred as he recalled how sick he had felt just moments ago.

Oliver, however, sensed something amiss, “She’s just a young girl, even if she learned something, it couldn’t be that powerful. The real masters out there are at least fifty years old. There must be another explanation.”

“No matter what, that Tina is a disaster. We cannot let her stay by my brother’s side, or who knows what trouble she’ll cause,” Stephanie pursed her lips. “Besides, Grace is a much better match for my brother, isn’t she?”

Stephanie’s words met no opposition from the rest of the Lyon family.

Their purpose in bringing Jared to Clearwater was to have him marry Grace, thereby cementing a partnership between the Lyon and Hancock families.

Regardless of how far Jared’s relationship with Tina had progressed, only Grace would end up marrying Jared!

On the other side, Tina and Jared had returned to their villa.

Jared was curious about what exactly Tina had done to make Grandma Lyon so compliant.

Tina giggled, “Just a little gadget from Wraith that can control someone for half an hour, making them do whatever they want. I just enhanced it a bit to last an hour.”

“Smart,” Jared said as he ruffled Tina’s hair, his eyes filled with pride.

The two of them laughed and entered the villa, where the servants had already prepared everything and led them to the bedroom.

“Miss, this is the bedroom. It has everything you need. If there’s anything missing, just press the button next to the bed. We’ll be waiting downstairs, so we’ll leave you two alone to rest early,” said the servant with a meaningful look at Jared and Tina, even hurrying off as if not to delay them any further.

Tina and Jared were puzzled. Why did she run?

Tina opened the door and instantly understood the meaning behind the servant’s words and why she had run…

They saw a large circular waterbed in the room, a rack on one side filled with an array of risque garments of all styles.

There were small boxes on the bed that looked like chewing gum, alongside some rather explicit tools.

Only two sets of normal pajamas hung on another rack.

Moreover, the floor was covered with rose petals leading to the bed, and the bathroom emitted the fragrance of essential oils.

Tina thought she had walked onto the set of some adult-themed play!

Jared hadn’t expected such a shocking scene, his usually stoic face turning a shade of red.

Though he very much wanted to be intimate with Tina, it wasn’t like this!

This was too… too blatant.

Jared glanced at a particularly sexy nightgown and unconsciously looked at Tina.

If Tina were to lie next to him wearing that nightgown…

At that moment, he dared not continue that thought.

His natural instincts were forcefully suppressed by his rationality.
