Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

The action startled Scarlett, who was still examining the cake. "Ouch, that really hurts on the cobblestone, how tough is James's little brother?" she exclaimed. Grandpa Brookes couldn't help but laugh, "Alright, alright, no need to fuss over such pranks, get up now." Hayden stood up with a smile, shaking the gift box in his hand, "There's real stuff too, Grandpa. I bought all the things our old man regularly uses, not sure if you like them."

"I do like them, you are quite the character," Grandpa Brookes chuckled, "No wonder the little girl from the White family likes you. Come out, girl."

Hearing this, Hayden froze as if his feet were filled with lead, unable to move. He felt as if his veins had turned to ice, rendering him immobile. Tina and Jared exchanged glances, seemingly asking-didn't you tell him? Jared shrugged, implying that if he had been informed, he might not have come at all. Nathan commented, "Tough, but Mr. Farrell is tougher."

Scarlett put down what she was holding and went inside to bring Paula out. "Why are you hiding? It's not like you were crying and screaming to go with him." Paula, led out by Scarlett, stood at the door, head down, unable to move forward. Both harbored unspeakable thoughts and mutual guilt. Suddenly facing each other, neither dared to take the first step.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Tina walked up and kicked Hayden, "What are you daydreaming about?" The kick sent Hayden stumbling in front of Paula, whose eyes were slightly red, unsure of what to say. Scarlett chuckled, remembering to turn off the oven before quietly leaving with Kiki and Mimi. Jared and Tina wheeled Grandpa Brookes to the backyard, leaving the silent pair alone. A chill evening breeze caused Paula to shiver involuntarily.

Hayden, without a word, took off his jacket and draped it over Paula, finally breaking the silence, "When did you come back?" Paula looked down, "Yesterday. After my dad heard you were alright, he let me come."

"Hmm, you..." Suddenly, Paula hugged Hayden tightly, crying into his shoulder. Hayden stood frozen, unsure of how to react. Paula cried until she was out of strength, then slowly stood up, "Hayden, don't you know how to comfort me?" Hayden had never seen Paula cry before. He remembered her either fiercely demanding to marry him or coolly chasing him on a motorcycle, her special whip making the thugs scream. Seeing her tearful now, he was genuinely at a loss. He blinked, "You can cry?" Paula took a deep breath and kicked Hayden in the shin. "Ouch!" Hayden cried out, grimacing as he rubbed his leg. Paula was still a bit angry, but seeing Hayden's comical stance on one leg, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. Hayden looked up and saw the smile on Paula's face, her tears glistening like broken diamonds at the corners of her eyes.

Suddenly, Hayden decided that he never wanted to see this girl cry again in his lifetime. He stood up straight and involuntarily took Paula's hand. "From now on, smile more, it suits you," he said.

Paula was momentarily stunned, gazing deeply at the person before her, feeling the intense warmth from his hand unsettling her heart. From beginning to end, she never believed that Hayden could do anything detrimental to the White family. Throughout it all, she had steadfastly stood by Hayden's side.

At this moment, Paula felt immensely grateful, thankful that her trust had not been betrayed. She hugged Hayden again, burying her cheek in his collarbone, "Hayden, it's so good that you're okay."

Hayden raised his hand but hesitated, unsure whether to continue the embrace as his handsome face was already flushed. His hands remained suspended in mid-air, never quite settling. Paula turned her back, clasping Hayden's hand onto her body, and wrapped her arms around his waist once more.

In a shadowed corner, Tina pinched the bridge of her nose, "This clueless one!" Even Kiki and Mimi couldn't help but sigh, "Really clueless, my dad always initiates hugs with mom." "Exactly, especially at night when they won't let my sister and me sleep in the middle..."

Scarlett quickly covered her daughters' mouths, worried about what they might say next. Tina chuckled, and Grandpa Brookes also broke into a hearty laugh. "Tina, come for a walk with me outside, staying at home all the time, I need some fresh air," Grandpa Brookes said as he rose from his wheelchair, and Tina hurried to support him. Rachel also reached out her hand, but Tina was quicker.

Watching Tina accompany Grandpa Brookes, Rachel clenched her fists tightly. This Tina was always in the way! Before Tina's arrival, it had always been Rachel who accompanied Grandpa Brookes to relax.

She knew it; Tina was her biggest obstacle in the Brookes family. Scarlett lifted the two children, "Jared, let's go too, Jack and the others will be back soon." Jared nodded. Knowing that Grandpa Brookes had taken Tina aside to talk privately, he naturally wouldn't intrude. Kiki and Mimi, seeing Jared stay put, struggled to jump onto him. What girl doesn't like a handsome guy? Scarlett smiled helplessly and followed them out. Throughout it all, no one had asked Rachel even a single question. Rachel clenched her fists tightly. Tina, I will not let you have your way!

Tina walked with Grandpa Brookes in the backyard garden. "Tina, I heard from Brandon that you visited Joshua recently," Grandpa Brookes inquired. Tina nodded, "Yes, I heard he's a disciple of the Five Poisons, and I have many questions for him." Grandpa Brookes laughed, "Joshua is not like the people from the Farrell family. Not all of them are as noble as Jared, but to be as sinister as Joshua is indeed strange." Tina looked puzzled, "Grandpa, what has Joshua done?" "These years, the crime syndicates involved in human trafficking, organ trading, and the Hancock family's 'Old Kris' sales are all tied to CK. Do you remember the Reed family's eldest daughter's lost child?" Tina thought for a while before recalling that the Reed family's eldest daughter was Liliosa. "Remember, did they find that child?"
