Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Just then, the doorbell rang. Jennie stood up to open the door, and when she saw the person outside, she paused, but quickly regained her composure and smiled, “Mr. Farrell, you’ve arrived? Please come in.” She had thought Jared would not visit so soon to discuss the engagement, as he had mentioned he would come today only yesterday.

After all, discussing engagement arrangements required the presence of his grandfather, as Jared himself would not suffice. Logan was quite old and was expected to arrive around noon, so it was surprising that he had arrived before nine in the morning.

Upon seeing Logan enter, Hugo quickly stood up and greeted him with great respect, “Mr. Farrell, please have a seat.” Though he was not very happy about Tina marrying Jared, Mr. Farrell was an elder with high reputation, and he deserved respect.

Tina also greeted him, “Mr. Farrell!”

Simultaneously, Jared, Hayden, and Nathan greeted Hugo and his wife, “Mr. and Mrs. Reed, hello.” They then nodded towards Tina as a polite greeting.

After the greetings were exchanged, everyone sat down. Jennie went to pour tea. Their family was of modest means, typically unable to afford expensive tea, so they only had a box of tea leaves worth a little over a hundred dollars, mainly for Hugo’s consumption.

Now that guests had arrived, serving such tea seemed a bit shabby. But it was too late to buy new tea now, so Jennie bravely served the brewed tea, apologizing, “I’m sorry, we only have this ordinary tea at home. If it’s not to your liking, I can go buy some better tea right now.”

Logan lifted the tea to his nose, took a sniff, and then took a sip, “This tea tastes very good, rich with a hint of sweetness, much better than the tea I normally drink. Where did you buy it? Recommend it to me; I’ll have someone purchase some.”

Jared also took a sip and praised, “It is good tea! There’s no need for formalities, in the future we will be family, and there’s no trouble in buying it again.”

Hugo and Jennie, who were initially quite nervous, were relieved by their words and their fondness for the Farrell family increased significantly. Their impression of Jared also improved greatly. If it were someone else, they might have been disdainful!Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Yet, here they were, not only showing no disdain but also wearing gentle smiles.

“My hometown has a tea mountain, and the tea leaves are grown there. After a bountiful harvest this year, someone sent us some. They usually sell for a little over a hundred dollars. Mr. Farrell, if you like it, I can have my mother send you some tomorrow,” Jennie explained with a smile.

“You have a tea mountain?” Logan was pleasantly surprised. “That’s great, I love drinking natural tea leaves, so I won’t refuse.”

“Good.”

With Logan’s response, the distance between the two families seemed to narrow even more.

After some pleasantries, Logan got to the point, “I came here today mainly to discuss the engagement of the two children. They’ve set the date themselves, to be engaged in seven days.”

Jared and Tina had chosen a date ten days from now, but since three days had already passed, according to today’s date, the engagement would be in seven days.

“The Farrell family’s wedding gift to you is three properties in the capital, which will be Tina’s private property, plus two personal cars that will also belong to Tina. After the wedding, if they want to live with me, they are welcome; if not, they can stay at Jared’s villa.”

“In the future, if she wants to work, she can take a position at any of the Farrell family companies. If she doesn’t want to work, she can stay at home, and I will pay her a monthly allowance of a million dollars to ensure she is not mistreated in the Farrell family.”

The wedding gift for Tina, aside from fifty million dollars, was significantly better than what had been given to Amber initially. It was clear that they had put thought into it.

Jennie and Hugo exchanged a glance, both very satisfied.

Following that, everyone discussed the arrangements for the engagement party. After deciding who would attend and selecting the restaurant, the engagement arrangements were set.

And after having lunch, Logan and Jared left.
