Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

When school ended, Jared wanted to go with them, but Tina firmly refused.

She and Orchid always had things to discuss about her mother, and it was inconvenient to have Jared around.

Tina and Orchid had informed Hugo and his wife beforehand, so after picking up Zackary, they went out for dinner and then took him to the amusement park.

After many years, Orchid’s face looked much older than Tina remembered, but still gentle as ever.

The way she held Zackary and smiled at her reminded Tina of a photo taken when she was young, where Orchid held her with the same gentle eyes.

That was the only time she had gone to the amusement park.

Tina had mentally prepared herself that Orchid’s invitation this time was most likely to plead for the Reed family.

However, as soon as they entered the amusement park, Orchid pulled Zackary towards the carousel and waved at her, “Tina, come on, let’s play together.”

Tina smiled, a smile as bright as the sun, basking in the spring breeze.

Except for some rides with height restrictions that Zackary couldn’t go on, the three of them explored the entire amusement park.

Finally, Orchid and Zackary came out of the haunted house with wobbly legs, and their eyes lit up when they saw the Ferris wheel.

While waiting in line, Zackary wanted ice cream, so Orchid said to Tina, “Tina, you stay here, I’ll take him to buy some and be right back.”

“Okay.” Tina nodded.

But for some reason, the two of them had been gone for so long that it was almost their turn, and they still hadn’t returned.

As Tina hesitated at the ticket gate, she was suddenly pulled by someone who appeared beside her, dragging her all the way onto the Ferris wheel.

Tina quickly turned to look at the person pulling her, her willow-like brows slightly furrowed, “Mr. Farrell, are you very idle?”

After the Ferris wheel cabin door closed, it began to rise slowly.

Jared was too tall, and although the cabin wasn’t small, he felt cramped and constrained by the entire space.

He sat back on the soft seat, “Sophia wanted to come to the amusement park to play, and coincidentally, you’re here too.”

With that, he slightly lifted his chin, gesturing outside.

Tina turned her head to look out and saw Nathan and Sophia waiting in line among the crowd. The little girl had sharp eyes, and when she saw Tina looking over, she waved frantically at her.

After the engagement banquet, Jared’s parents had taken Sophia back with them. Moreover, Marie didn’t like Tina as her daughter-in-law, so she had been keeping the little girl cooped up and not allowing her to come and play with Tina, which had made Sophia restless.

Jared spread his hands towards Tina, indicating that he wasn’t lying to her.

“Hmph.” Tina crossed her arms and sat down opposite Jared, a half-smile on her face, as if saying, let’s see if I believe you.

She had refused Jared’s company today because she had things to ask Orchid about her mother, Rebecca.

But Jared had still followed her, which displeased her somewhat.

So far, as her fiance, Jared’s behavior and conduct had been very qualified, and he had done a lot for her. An ordinary girl would have probably been moved and offered her heart long ago.

But she was Tina.

The ten years she had lost her mother, she had been walking on a knife’s edge.

She had always known that the human heart was the most unpredictable.

She didn’t fully trust Jared, especially after learning that when her mother passed away, Jared had visited her and her mother’s residence and was looking for something.

So she would gauge whether all his displays were a purposeful probe.

Just like she allowed him to always appear by her side, it wasn’t because she was touched, but because she wanted to observe what he was trying to do and wait for him to reveal his true intentions.

She was already used to lying low; she had a lot of patience.

In the stagnant silence, the Ferris wheel slowly turned, and their cabin stopped at the highest point.

Tina looked outside the cabin; the night sky seemed very close, but was actually very far.

She looked down at the colorful lights of the entire amusement park and the tiny crowds.

Orchid and Zackary, who had gone to buy ice cream, had returned and were standing with Nathan and Sophia, continuing to line up. The two children were holding hands and laughing as they talked.

Not far away, there was some grand event, igniting fireworks that filled the sky, a myriad of colors, dazzling and stunning.

She was looking at the fireworks; Jared was looking at her.

She didn’t know that her profile in the flashing fireworks was so beautiful that it took one’s breath away.

The ever-changing colorful lights cast layers of light and shadow on her elegant contours, half her face in darkness, half her face graceful, just like how she was difficult to understand and define as a person.

“I’ll buy this amusement park and give it to you.” After Jared spoke, he found his throat a little dry, so he could only give a light cough to cover it up and turned his head.

But the glass of the cabin reflected the amazement and affection in his eyes, so thick that even he was startled.

Tina, however, didn’t notice at all. The corner of her lips curved up, her eyes teasing, “You want to buy this place and give it to me?”

“You seem to really like it here.” Jared told the truth.

“Mr. Farrell, let’s make a bet?” Tina’s smile deepened.

“Bet on what?”

“If you can buy this amusement park and give it to me, I’ll agree to one thing for you.” Tina leaned forward slightly, a hint of mischief hidden in her smile, “On the contrary, if you can’t, you’ll have to agree to one thing for me.”

“Anything is fine?”

“Mm.”

Jared slightly raised his eyes and met Tina’s gaze as she leaned closer to him.

The fireworks in the night sky danced in her pupils, reflecting his own face.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

She was smiling, “My promise is very expensive.”

At that moment, he felt something strike his heart, his mind went blank, and he inexplicably agreed.

“Okay.”

Tina was a little surprised. She sat up straight and leaned back, scrutinizing Jared. She didn’t believe he was a fool who couldn’t guess why she would propose such a bet.

This amusement park was hers. She had only come here once in her nineteen years of life, and later she bought it as a keepsake.

Buying her things and giving them to her, Jared couldn’t do it unless she was willing.

So he was bound to lose.

“I’ll let you win.” Seeing Tina’s confusion, Jared smiled, his gaze towards Tina carried a hint of doting, “So you can use the beauty trap too.”

“What?” Tina was stunned.

“Nothing.”

The huge Ferris wheel had unknowingly completed a rotation, and Jared stood up, gentlemanly opening the cabin door for Tina.

Tina gave him a doubtful look and walked out.

They waited outside for a while before Orchid and the others got off the Ferris wheel.

“Miss Reed!” As soon as Sophia’s feet touched the ground, she ran over, wanting to pounce on Tina.
