Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 541: Something Seems Overlooked

Grace not only refused to let go, but she tightened her grip even more. Just a moment ago, she had been

thinking about inviting Jared to her home, hoping to collaborate with the Farrell family following her father's

takeover of the Lyon family. But in the next moment, her father was arrested, the Hancock family was

investigated, and her own family was bankrupt? She couldn't accept this blow, she just couldn't!

Unable to get her way with Jared and Tina, she directed all her resentment towards Stephanie. Just as Stephanie

was about to be strangled to death, agents from the Narcotics Bureau finally arrived and subdued Grace. Though

Stephanie was saved, her face was irreparably damaged. The porcelain doll bearing Old Kris's marks caused a

severe infection through her wounds, and there was no saving it.

"Grace was arrested for assault with intent to injure, and Stephanie's disfigurement has left her devastated.

Megan has divorced Warren and taken the children abroad. Leah has absconded with all of Oliver Lyon's money,

taking her children away from Clearwater. The others are all serving tin prison," Miss Reed concluded.

"There's nothing else."

Courtney relayed the downfall of both the Lyon and Hancock families to Tina. Such an outchad been

expected, hardly a surprise. However, Grace's meltdown was somewhat unexpected to Tina. "lI understand," Tina

said as she placed the translated contract into her bag and put on a cap before getting into her car, "Tell Uncle to

wait here for me, I'll be back soon."

Courtney nodded and watched as Tina drove away, already planning how to explain the situation to Jared. Miss

Reed had an appointment!

Tina drove to the front of a restaurant, stepping out with her bag. Inside, the restaurant was reserved for two

familiar faces: Janson Woodham, head of the Woodham family, and Ethan Ward, head of the Ward family. "Miss,"

Janson stood up first, his eyes slightly moist. Ethan Ward, on the other hand, was composed; after all, Tina was

his mentor, though he had never expected that his mentor would turn out to be the daughter of the boss he had

been searching for so long. Tina nodded, signaling for them to sit. "Why didn't you tellthe truth from the

beginning?" she asked directly.

Janson and Ethan exchanged a look. Janson sighed, "Miss, to be honest, we didn't know you were the boss's

daughter, nor that the boss's daughter was named Tina. When | met you in Ensford, you seemed familiar, but |

had no idea... Had | known, | would have protected you right away."

He paused, realizing that perhaps Tina did not need his protection.

"You didn't know my name? Then how did Max recognizeimmediately?" Tina wondered, thinking her mother

might have told them her name.

Ethan scoffed, "Max, that cunning scoundrel! He took the boss's tech report from us, then lied that it had gone

missing. If we hadn't lost touch over the years, he wouldn't have been strutting around Clearwater."

After Natalie's death, the three families she had supported searched her hfor the biotech research reports.

Max was the first to reach them and took the reports, falsely claiming they had been destroyed but secretly

keeping them and colluding with GTO.

By the tthe Woodham and Ward families arrived, the place was empty, cleaned out. After Natalie's death,

the three families had secretly met and agreed not to contact each other to avoid detection of their association

with Natalie. They all suspected foul play in Natalie's death and agreed to protect the legacy she left behind by

adhering to their pact.

For ten years, they tacitly avoided disturbing each other, apart from Max, both the Song and Yuan families were

searching for the whereabouts of Natalie's daughter, aiming to protect her. However, beyond knowing she was a

girl, they knew nothing else. Unexpectedly, Tina had grown capable enough to protect them instead.

"Thinking back, the boss didn't tell us anything. He must have sensed a traitor among us, that's why he didn't

reveal more," Ethan Ward said gravely, a fierce look flashing across his eyes.

Janson also despised this fact, slamming his fist on the table, "Had | known Max was the traitor, | would have

used all my family's strength to prevent him from being free for so many years, and almost harming you." Janson

and Ethan Ward were aware of the incident where Tina attended a cruise banquet hosted by the Hancock family

and a bomb was placed on board. Now recalling it, both shuddered with fear.

Tina, for her part, was indifferent; she had always known Max was up to no good, and the bomb was not his

doing. Nor could it have been the work of the Lyon family. As for who was actually behind it, that was still under

investigation. "Let's not dwell on the past, | called you here today because there's another matter you need to

take over," Tina said as she took out a file from her bag that she had already translated and handed it to Ethan

Ward and Janson. The Woodham family had always relied on their own strength to maintain their rise and fall,

never activating anything of Natalie's. First, because they knew their abilities were limited and could not utilize

the boss's legacy effectively. Second, they were aware that casually using these things would have a huge

impact; if someone followed the trail to the boss's daughter, it would be over.

Ethan Ward had been devoted to medicine and later even becTina's student. Both were surprised as they

looked at the document.

They exchanged looks and simultaneously took out another document from their bags. "Master, you understand

these things better. Take a look, is the content the sas what's in your document?" Ethan Ward handed the

paper over. Tina skimmed through it and suddenly laughed. It turned out that Natalie had divided the

biotechnology into three parts before her death, each given to their two families and the last left in the village

for Max to find. This indicated that Natalie must have known that Max was the traitor beside her.

But then...

Tina clenched the document in her hand.

Her mother knew everything, so why did she choose suicide?

Tina struggled to understand; her mother had set this trap for Max but hadn't instructed her on anything before

choosing to leave this world.

This was illogical.

Could she have overlooked something?

"Master?" Seeing Tina's increasingly solemn expression, Ethan Ward called out to her.

Tina snapped back to reality and placed the document on the table, "Yes, it's the same, when did my mom give

you these?"

These documents together made up the entire content outline of the Lyon family contract. That is to say, Natalie

had already developed the biotechnology research but had divided it into three parts, true and false. Brandon

was also correct; Natalie must have seen the initial biotechnology outline proposed by the Brookes family.

Natalie remembered everything.

Did she know that she was the long-lost biological daughter of the Brookes family?
