Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Brandon frowned. "Did Tina really say that?"

Rachel, sensing an opportunity, replied eagerly, "Yes, she really said that, Brandon. What do you think she means?"

Finally, she saw a chance to stop Brandon from always defending Tina!

However, Brandon responded, "This child, what nonsense is she talking about? She doesn't need to replace you; she's always been in a higher position than you."

With that, Brandon shook his head and walked away, muttering about how Tina was prone to overthinking.

In that moment, Rachel felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her nails digging into her palms, yet she felt no pain.

Brandon had actually said that she could never compare to Tina!

After all, she had been with the Brookes family for nearly thirty years, from infancy.

And Tina was just an outsider whose status hadn't even been confirmed yet.

Brandon could actually say such a thing!

Rachel was indignant. She was determined to get rid of Tina-now, immediately, at once!

After leaving the Brookes family, Tina received a call from Brandon. "Tina, I did everything you said, but it's odd. Why provoke her with those words? She takes things to heart; she must be furious by now." Tina laughed after hearing this. "It's okay, as long as it was said."

Brandon didn't press further. "Alright, I've done my part. Be careful, and let me know if you need anything."

"Uncle Brandon, actually, I do need something," Tina chuckled. "Tomorrow, take everyone out, except for Rachel and maybe another person, an aunt or someone."

Brandon paused. "What for?"

"It's useful."

"Okay, I'll do as you say," Brandon laughed, then hung up the phone.

He never asked too much about Tina's plans or tried to stop her.

He just cooperated!

After all, he was the best uncle in the world, better even than Jack!

Hanging up, Tina stretched lazily in the car and clicked her tongue.

Jared glanced at her, smiling. "What's up?"

"It's been a long time since I kissed you in the car, ever since you started driving yourself!"

Jared nearly slammed on the brakes hard enough to throw himself out!

Tina really didn't choose her moments!

But, he liked it.

The next day, Brandon took the family out early, claiming it was for a medical check-up.

However, Scarlett was too sleepy to get up and refused to go.

Rachel also made an excuse and stayed behind, so Brandon left with the rest of the family magnificently.

Scarlett yawned and went back to her room to sleep.

Unexpectedly, before she could reach her room, she felt dizzy and fainted.

Behind her, Rachel smirked sinisterly, watching Scarlett collapse with utter coldness in her eyes.

"Scarlett, you'll be my shield for the day. If you accidentally die, don't blame me!" Rachel chuckled and clapped her hands.

Then, two people emerged from Rachel's room, tied up the unconscious Scarlett, and took her away from the Brookes family.

Rachel went back to sleep. When she woke up and got out of bed leisurely, she picked up her phone.

Already, there was a video of Scarlett being kidnapped.

"Let me go! I warn you, if you dare touch me, neither the Campbell family nor the Brookes family will let you off!" With a slap, the kidnapper struck Scarlett's face.

"Playing tough, huh? Tell your husband to bring the money, or prepare to collect your corpse!" he threatened.

Rachel watched the video, tears squeezing from her eyes, and then, crying, she called Tina.

"It's terrible, Tina! Something's happened to Scarlett. I can't reach my dad or Jared. What should I do?"

Over the phone, Rachel's voice was choked with tears, the urgency palpable.

Tina yawned, seemingly unclear, "What did you say? Say it again!"

"Scarlett's been kidnapped. The kidnappers are demanding a ransom, but I can't get hold of my dad or Jared. What do we do, Tina? Please, come quickly. Scarlett is really in danger!" "Okay, I'll be right there." Tina hung up and soon appeared at the Brookes family home.

Rachel showed Tina the kidnapping video. "Tina, I still have enough money. Since they can't be contacted, let's go and pay the ransom. I'm worried if we're late, something bad will happen to Scarlett!" Tina nodded, "Alright, let's get going."

Rachel watched anxiously as Tina rushed to start the car, a secret smirk crossing her face. She knew Tina would come to rescue Scarlett, who always treated her like her own daughter. To secure her position within the Brookes family, she would brave any challenge.

On the way, Rachel kept trying to contact the kidnapper, but to no avail. When they arrived at the designated location, they received a message to go elsewhere. After several changes of location, Tina realized they were at the base of a deserted mountain.

The kidnapper then instructed them to bring the money up the mountain. With no other choice, they complied.

Rachel and Tina, carrying bags of cash, finally reached the mountaintop. From a distance, they saw Scarlett bound to a tree, flanked by two menacing kidnappers.

Tina stepped forward first, tossing the bag of money on the ground. "Here's the money you wanted. Now let my aunt go!"

One of the kidnappers walked over, checked the bag, but showed no greed for the money. "Boss, the Brookes family really is rich. This girl, unable to contact her grandfather, casually pulls out three million dollars like it's nothing," he laughed, uninterested in the amount.

Tina narrowed her eyes. "Who are you, exactly?"

Suddenly, Tina felt a heavy blow to her head. Turning slowly, she saw Rachel holding a large rock, smiling radiantly at her.

"Tina, your mother was abducted just like this years ago. Seems like history is repeating itself, don't you think?"

Tina was speechless, her eyes unwillingly closing as she lost consciousness.

When she next opened her eyes, Scarlett was tied up beside her, and the two kidnappers stood-one next to Rachel, and the other next to Grace.

Tina looked quietly at the people in front of her. "You're Five Poisons!"

Five Poisons laughed. "I didn't expect you to recognize me. But I prefer you call me 'Aunt Rachel', Tina."

Tina tried to break free from her bonds but realized she was too weak, evidently poisoned.

Five Poisons smiled again. "Stop struggling. This poison was developed by your mother. You can't neutralize it!"
