Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Grace was quietly taking control of all matters within the X Bureau. Since she was at the same level as Linden, others hesitated to speak out, especially since she was appointed from above. They just had to bear it. The incidents at the training ground only deepened Grace's grudge. She was constantly targeting Nathan, trying to strip him of his captaincy.

The momentum was strong and could not be ignored.

Moreover, the Five Poisons might very well be lurking behind her.

That faceless face could appear in any guise, perhaps even replacing Grace.

If that were indeed the case, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Inside the apartment, Grace walked in.

Looking at Stephanie's bedroom door, now shattered, she disdainfully remarked, "Such a simple task, and you couldn't handle it."

"Why don't you do it yourself!" Stephanie was applying medicine to herself.

That Courtney really didn't consider her own injuries at all.

Grace glanced at her coldly, "You handle Lysander's issues. Now there's another problem; Courtney has been sent back to Kongham University on some mission. Keep an eye on her."

Hearing Courtney's name, Stephanie snapped a cotton swab in frustration, "What's there to watch with her?"

"The master said Courtney is Tina's confidant. This trip could target either you or Lysander. We also need to sway the Emerson family, which could be extremely detrimental to us. Just be careful," Grace said patiently. "One moment you ask me to provoke Lysander, the next to watch Courtney. Why don't you just use me as a tool?"

Anger tinted Grace's expression, "Why ask so many questions? If you want revenge, just keep quiet. Report back to me if Courtney shows any slight deviation. Also, we shouldn't meet for a while. I don't have time to deal with you. Quickly turn Lysander to our side and don't let Courtney notice."

"What you did today probably already made Lysander suspicious. Be more careful in the future."

With that, Grace left.

Stephanie cursed under her breath and continued applying her medicine.

She would definitely not let Courtney off the hook!

At Kongham University, Lysander waited grimly in front of the graduate teaching building.

People passing by kept their distance.

After all, Lysander was a notable figure at Kongham University, recognized by everyone.

Usually seen only by those in the finance department, his rare appearance today naturally aroused curiosity.

Stephanie walked out alone and smiled as she approached Lysander.

"Lysander, what are you doing here? Waiting for me?"

Suddenly, Lysander pulled her away, quickening his pace.

"Hey, Lysander, what are you doing? Go easy, you're hurting me!"

Lysander dragged Stephanie to a secluded area, then abruptly let go of her hand.

Stephanie's wrist was bright red, and she looked at Lysander with tearful eyes, "What are you doing?"

"What am I doing? Stephanie, I want to ask you, what exactly happened yesterday!"

Lysander was no fool; he wouldn't lose consciousness for no reason.

Yesterday, he had arranged to meet with Tina while she treated Stephanie's injuries.

But unexpectedly, he found himself locked in his bedroom, having lost consciousness.

If it wasn't related to Stephanie, only a fool would believe that!

Rubbing her wrist, Stephanie replied, "I haven't even asked you about yesterday. I decided to help you meet with Tina, but why did you bring Orson? Were you trying to let my brother find out about our agreement and then get kicked out of Ashbury?"

"Orson wasn't brought by me!" Lysander roared.

"Why are you shouting? If I hadn't passed out from pain yesterday, Orson and that Courtney would have killed me. Look at the wounds on my body, and yet you blame me."

Stephanie lifted her skirt, "I was trying to help you, and this is how you treat me?" Lysander looked at the wounds on Stephanie's legs, "How did you get hurt like this?"

"How would I know!" Stephanie said petulantly, sitting down on a roadside chair, "You say Orson wasn't called by you, then who did? He came with Courtney, could it be Courtney who brought him?" "Possibly." Lysander knew of Orson's feelings for Courtney.

The two coming together wasn't out of the realm of possibility, but why would Courtney bring him?

Stephanie, observing the change in Lysander's expression, smirked inwardly before saying, "Back in Clearwater, Courtney was quite close to Jared. Could it be she suspected something?" Lysander narrowed his eyes. Indeed, Courtney had been seeking him out frequently of late.

She claimed it was for her graduate studies, but there seemed to be a hint of surveillance.

Could it be that Jared sent her?NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Lysander wasn't aware of the full extent of Courtney's connection with Tina, but he knew Courtney was a member of the X Bureau.

In his eyes, Courtney's relationship with Jared seemed closer.

He felt somewhat reluctant to accept it.

So, Jared had placed a spy by his side?

He wanted to stir trouble between him and Tina!

Seeing Lysander's expression, Stephanie knew he had fallen for it.

This was good.

"I understand how you feel, but please trust me. I said I would help you, and I mean it. If you don't need me, I can leave anytime. I hope in the future, you won't misunderstand me." With that, Stephanie limped away.

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free! Lysander watched her retreating figure, his gaze growing deeper.

Meanwhile, Tina suddenly received a call from Damian.

"Tina, are you free? Can we meet, just the two of us?"

Damian rarely called Tina, and even less likely to meet her alone, usually involving the Reed family.

This time his tone was very serious, and his request unusual.

Tina nodded, "Okay, send me the address."

Arriving early at the location, Damian was already waiting. As Tina approached, he greeted her.

"Tina, I'm here."

Tina sat down and asked, "What happened?"

Damian looked around and then pulled out a document from his briefcase.

"Tina, something doesn't feel right. The bionic project is progressing very smoothly, yet I saw someone selling bionic technology cameras on the black market. These are patents that haven't been released to the market, recently brought to us by Lysander for collaboration, but now, they appear on the black market."

Tina frowned. The covert cameras had already spread?

So quickly?

She flipped through the documents. The covert cameras sold on the black market were the ones she had handed over to Lysander.

"How long have you known about this?" Tina asked.

"I found out this morning and called you right away, Tina. Besides this camera, there's another thing that feels off. Do you know the Pace family?"

Tina nodded, "Boris? What about him?"
