Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 466: The Appraisal Result

Jared hung up the phone. He tapped the seat in front of him, "Write a self-critique."

Nathan nearly choked on his own saliva and silently glanced at the rearview mirror, replying, "Yes."

The saying 'a higher rank crushes the person below’ finally made sense to him!

Jared pulled Tina back into his embrace, his fingertips caressing the palm of her hand, "What do you think?"

"I think | should go see lan," Tina said, her expression unchanged, revealing nothing.

Jared thought the same, "Nathan, drive to the Brookes family."

Soon, Nathan parked the car near the Brookes family residence.

"Do you really not needto cwith you?" Jared asked.

Tina shook her head, "No, | can go by myself."

Jared did not insist and watched as Tina walked towards the Brookes family residence, then instructed Nathan to

drive away.

As Tina walked, the air was filled with the faint scent of locust flowers.

It had to be said that lan had good taste. Although it was a residence bought on short notice, the location was

excellent-quiet amidst the hustle and bustle, surrounded by natural locust trees. When the wind blew, the entire

courtyard was fragrant.

As she neared the Brookes family residence, Tina took out her phone.

It displayed the report Cole sent last night-a paternity test report between her and Jack.

The result indicated a 58. 99% probability of a parental relationship, confirming a genetic link.

This percentage was enough to prove her relation to the Brookes family, at least making Jack likely her uncle.

But she could not be completely sure.

After all, the test was with Jack, not with lan or lan's mother.

She had never heard her mother mention anything about the Brookes family; she always thought her mother

was a child of the Whittaker family.

The report made her feelings complex.

For now, she could not obtain her mother's DNA; otherwise, she would definitely seek further confirmation.

Tina turned off her phone and stepped inside.

She did not plan to share this result with lan.

The Brookes family had also conducted a report between her and lan; if the results matched, it would fully

confirm her relation to the Brookes family. If different...

That would be interesting.

Before she knew it, Tina had reached the front door of the Brookes family residence.

She rang the doorbell, and before she could announce her nthrough the intercom, the door had already

opened.

Scarlett emerged, holding a child, unclear whether it was Kiki or Mimi, "I thought | was mistaken, but it really is

Tina, cin!"

Tina was warmly led into the yard by Scarlett.

Observing the child in Scarlett's arms, who had a fresh scratch on her face making it look puffed up and

adorable, Tina couldn't help but ask, "What happened?" Scarlett couldn't help but laugh, "It's just the kids

fighting; this is Kiki, the older sister who hasn't beaten her younger sister, sulking right now."

"Fight back next time," Tina couldn't help but pinch Kiki's little cheek, "But, sisters should live in harmony and

love."

She had no siblings and sometimes envied those with brothers and sisters.

Kiki seemed to understand Tina's words, nodding approvingly, and took Tina's fingertip, kissing it repeatedly.

Scarlett exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, Kiki really likes you."

Tina smoothly picked up Kiki.

At that moment, Kiki was no longer upset. She hugged Tina and rubbed her little face against her, clearly

delighted.

In the front yard.

lan was comforting another little granddaughter, "Mimi, your sister didn't hit you, why are you crying? You should

be comforting your sister now, shouldn't you?" Mimi, crying, turned her head and saw Tina holding Kiki. Her little

mouth pouted, and she pointed at Tina, kicking her legs in agitation.

lan looked up, a warm feeling washing over him.

If only they were his granddaughters.

"Old man, long tno see." Tina sat opposite lan, also picking up Mimi effortlessly.

Mimi calmed down, leaning on Tina's other side like Kiki, thoroughly enjoying the affection.

The two sisters, who had just been fighting, now held hands together at Tina's urging, "Are you two getting along

now?"

Kiki and Mimi seemed to understand and hugged each other, laughing and whispering, not knowing what they

were chatting about. Tina felt warmth in her heart.

If Jack were truly her uncle, these would indeed be her sisters.

She grew fonder of them the more she looked.

Scarlett knew Tina had cto speak with lan, so she took the reconciled sisters away, "Tina, you must stay for

dinner."

Tina nodded, "Yes, definitely."

After Scarlett took the children away, lan spoke up, "Tina, what brings you here?"

Tina repeated the phone call from Christopher Parr to lan, "The X Bureau plans to intervene."

lan waved it off with a smile, "Don't worry, Tina, they won't stir up much trouble. Let that young man from the

Farrell family tell that leader named Christopher Parr to report it up to his superiors. They'll respond." Hearing

this, Tina smiled.

She was right; the power behind lan was indeed capable of suppressing Jared's boss.

lan paused, then pondered, "That young man from the Farrell family has earned quite a bit of recognition; he

should have been promoted by now. Why hasn't he?"

"I'm not sure," Tina shook her head.

She never interfered in Jared's affairs, although she was familiar with the X Bureau's system. Jared had made

significant achievements, including the recent dismantling of a baby-trafficking ring, and should have been

promoted at least half a rank, instead of still being manipulated by others.

But the internal workings were beyond Tina's assurance.

lan understood, "That's the way it is with higher ranks. Tell him not to rush, to take it slow."

"Okay." Tina smiled softly.

The two fell silent for a few seconds.

lan suddenly sat upright, looking at Tina with a somewhat apologetic expression, "Actually, if you hadn't cto

seetoday, | was planning to look for you."

Tina tensed, sensing the seriousness of lan's demeanor; it must be about the paternity test.

It was tfor the results.

"What is it?" Tina clenched her fists, feeling unusually nervous.

lan sighed deeply, "Last time, | troubled you with a paternity test. The results are in."

Tina pursed her lips, listening quietly.

"The results show that we have no biological relation, Tina. | apologize for the offense."

Tina was stunned, then her brows furrowed.

No biological relation?

She shared fifty-eight percent of her genes with Jack, but with Jack's biological father, there was no connection at

all.

Ha!

Just as she had suspected.

The waters of the Brookes family ran deep!
