Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 947: A Hundred Years Later, I'll Bury You and Master Together Upon hearing this, Warren finally lifted his gaze, a flicker of satisfaction crossing his eyes. "Good, Jared," he said, his tone calm and assured. "With those words of yours, I can finally feel at ease." "As for the dowry offered by the Farrell family, our family's contribution will be no less. The details can be discussed by both sets of parents. I only have one condition: my granddaughter's wedding must be grand. If she suffers even the slightest grievance after marriage, our family will not tolerate it. You'd better be prepared for that." Warren stood up, his long-established authority as a leader radiating from him. If Jared dared to harbor even a shred of disloyalty, he would face the full wrath of the Pace family in the future.

Jared's expression remained unchanged, his gaze firm. "Don't worry, Grandpa. Tina is the one I hold dearest in my heart. I will treasure her more than my own life. No matter what happens, I will always stand in front of her." Hearing this, Warren's imposing aura dissipated. He turned to Mr. Farrell beside him and began chatting amicably. "Alright, most things are settled. Let the younger generation take care of the rest. As their elders, we shouldn't meddle too much." Logan, smiling warmly, stood up and chimed in, "How about we old men play a gof chess to relax? It's been a while since I last played-I'm afraid I'm out of practice." "Good. Let's see how your skills measure up," Warren replied.

The two strolled toward the backyard, leaving Ruud, Alina, and the ever-smiling Asher couple behind. Asher turned to them and said, "If there's anything else that needs adjusting, please let us know. We'll treat Tina like our own daughter and ensure she's never wronged." Ruud was silent.

Alina smiled and shook her head, signaling to the Asher couple that everything was already in order. She then turned to Jared and said, "Jared, go find Tina. These discussions are best left to us adults." Jared nodded slightly and glanced at his parents.

Marie gave her son an encouraging look. "Go on, spend stwith Tina." She was determined-such a wonderful daughter-in-law must join the Farrell family.

When Jared found the tadmiring flowers, they had just emerged from the lotus pond. As they passed through the corridor, they happened to run into Sophia, who had clooking for them. Simone, quick to notice, took Sophia by the arm and led her in another direction, giving the couple sprivacy. "I'll take Sophia for a walk over there. You two have a good chat." Tina was momentarily stunned. Why did she suddenly feel like they were sneaking around before their wedding? But as she saw Jared approaching in his suit, she couldn't help but feel captivated.

Her uncle, in her eyes, always radiated brilliance.

Tina tilted her head, looking up at him from within his embrace. "How did you manage to convince my four uncles? They're not like my dad-they're not that easy to persuade." Jared smirked, keeping her in suspense. "Guess." Tina raised an eyebrow. "You bribed their wives?" Though Brandon and Angela weren't officially married yet, in Tina's mind, Angela was already part of the family.

Jared chuckled. "Not bribed-I simply catered to their preferences. Besides, I had to make promises to their wives to earn their approval." Tina hadn't expected Jared to go to such lengths for the wedding. She felt both amused and a little touched. "Uncle, aren't you afraid that when you visit my family in the future, my uncles will give you a hard time? Maybe even force you to drink?" Jared rested his chin gently on her shoulder. "I'm not afraid. I have you." Tina laughed. "I'll protect you!" The smile in Jared's eyes was almost overflowing.

By noon, Warren hosted a banquet for the Farrell family.

With the wedding arrangements settled, both families were in high spirits.

Warren sent someone to invite Mia from the back. As a senior family member, it was only proper for her to attend such an important occasion. It was a matter of etiquette and a sign of respect toward the family. However, the servant returned with news that Mia had claimed to feel unwell and would not be coming. Warren's face darkened. Such a significant occasion, and she refused to attend? Did she have no sense of responsibility as a family elder? Alina quickly stepped forward to calm him down. "There's no need to take it to heart. Honestly, if Mia were to come, who knows if we'd even be able to enjoy this meal. I'd rather not risk ruining such a happy moment by causing trouble." Ruud nodded in agreement with his wife. "Dad, this is a joyous occasion for both families. With you, Alina, andhere, that's more than enough. Mr. Farrell is still waiting for you-don't keep him waiting." Since the previous incident, Ruud's feelings of familial affection toward his aunt had completely vanished. The only reason he tolerated her presence was out of respect for Warren.

When Tina and Jared returned from the backyard, they saw both families seated at the dining table, chatting and laughing in harmony.

Jared took a seat on the guest side, while Tina sat between Alina and Ruud.

Noticing the flush on her daughter's face and the slight swelling of her lips, Alina discreetly pinched Tina's hand under the table. "Shameless! You've only been apart for a few days, and you're already this eager?" Tina's expression remained calm. "We're both the same. Let's not talk about each other." Alina huffed, utterly unapologetic. "Your father and I were apart for over ten years. Missing each other is only natural. It would be strange if we didn't." Tina was speechless.

Always looking for a chance to flaunt her love! Alina: "Aren't you doing the same?" Tina: "..."

Once everyone was seated, Jared poured a glass of wine and stood to youfon toast Ruud. "Father, thank you for entrusting Dina to me. From now on, I will cherish her, carrying both my share and yours." Ruud's expression twitched. He didn't want to drink this toast. This kid wasn't just making a promise-he was rubbing salt in Ruud's wounds! Jared didn't rush him, standing patiently and waiting.

Warren coughed lightly, then again, before eventually scowling. "Ruud, Jared is offering you a toast. How long are you planning to keep up this act?" Ruud gritted his teeth.

What? I've already agreed to let him marry my daughter. Can't I at least act like I'm in charge?

Jared, sensing Ruud's frustration, added, "Father, rest assured. A hundred years from now, I wilPspare ve no expense to build a grand tomb for you and Master and have you buried together." Ruud's eyes widened in disbelief."!!!" Logan nearly spat out his drink, smacking Jared on the head. "What nonsense are you talking about?!" What was wrong with this boy? On such a joyous day, he was talking about burying people in a hundred years?

Ruud, seething, glared at Jared.

"Remember what you said today. If a hundred years from now you don't kay from ve buryand your mother-in-law together, I'll fight the King of Hell for his throne and drag you down to join me!" Jared: "..." A miscalculation.
