Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Tina glanced at the photo. “Damn, he’s handsome!” The uncle was right; Joshua was stunningly attractive. He had the refined demeanor of a gentleman from a distinguished family, albeit with a hint of rebellion. Completely different from Jared. Yet-she still thought the uncle was the handsomest. But that didn’t stop her from finding Joshua attractive too. “He’s good-looking,” Tina said, her eyes sparkling.

Sophia, clutching Tina’s neck, whispered with her little finger at her lips, “Shush, brother can’t hear you calling another man handsome, even though I also think Uncle Joshua is very good-looking.”

Tina flipped to another photo, a selfie with Joshua holding the phone towards the camera and a girl leaning against his shoulder, her face hidden. Sophia glanced at it and said, “That’s Uncle Joshua’s girlfriend. I really like her hair; it’s like a waterfall.”

Tina nodded, about to add something, when Jared snatched the phone away. He quickly deleted Joshua’s contact from Marie’s phone. Marie shrieked and swatted at Jared, “Hey, you little devil, why are you deleting your uncle’s photo?”

Jared unceremoniously scooped Sophia off Tina and grabbed a few snack packs from the bag, then carried Tina away. Sophia, looking at the half-empty snack bag, sighed like an adult, “Wow, jealous men are really scary.”

Marie glared at Jared’s retreating back, “Just like your father!”

Jared, having whisked Tina away, cradled her tenderly in his arms, her slim arms wrapped around his neck as he carried her back to the bedroom. As they entered, Jared intended to put her down on the sofa. Unexpectedly, Tina agilely flipped over him, shifting from being cradled to sitting astride him.

Jared, holding Tina’s waist and leveraging her momentum, sat down firmly on the sofa, looking up at the cunningly smiling girl above him, his Adam’s apple bobbing, his eyes betraying uncontrollable emotions.

Tina, sitting on Jared’s lap, playfully tapped his neck, saying deliberately, “Uncle, your Uncle Joshua really is quite handsome.”

Jared hugged Tina tightly, pressing her in front of him, “Not as handsome as me.”

“Really?” Tina leaned into Jared, her nose lightly touching his, her breath faintly brushing his face.

Jared, overwhelmed, stood and pressed Tina onto the bed, his suit jacket covering her slender waist. His heavy breathing rose and fell on his muscular chest as Tina’s legs hooked around his calves, her eyes a quiet sea. Her restless fingers gripped his protruding collarbone. In the next moment, she forcefully flipped their positions, sitting firmly on his stomach.

Leaning down, her lips tenderly moistened the parched ground beneath them. He restrained himself, holding back the youthful vigor transitioning from nineteen to twenty. She responded, affirming a lifetime’s recognition.

Then, the knocking at the door finally pierced the ambiguous atmosphere. Tina briskly stood up, sitting on the sofa and casually picking up a snack.

Jared adjusted his suit, hiding the lipstick mark on his shirt collar. The knocker was Sophia, her little head peeking through, a knowing smile on her tender face, “Tina, I didn’t mean to interrupt you, but someone came looking for you, so I came over.”

Tina stood, slightly embarrassed, “Who’s looking for us?”

“Don’t know, a beautiful older sister. Grandpa is downstairs chatting with her, oh, and there’s an unfamiliar uncle too.”

“Okay, got it.” After speaking, Tina and Jared went downstairs.

Downstairs, Logan was chatting with a man and a woman about company matters, so Marie didn’t stay to accompany them.

“Mr. Chairman, this is the new head of our design department, Miss Jasmine White, a renowned designer from Amal Design Company. The hit product launched by Amal last year was her creation,” said the man, who was the head of the human resources department and a veteran employee of the company.

Since Vivienne had left the group, he had finally managed to recruit Jasmine, and today was specifically to report this to Logan and Jared.

Since Jared was seldom at the office and hard to contact, he had no choice but to come to the house.

Facing Logan, Jasmine bowed slightly, “Mr. Chairman, now that I have joined, I will speak frankly, please don’t mind.”

“Go ahead,” Logan always appreciated directness. Although it was his first meeting with Jasmine, he quite liked her straightforward nature.

Jasmine smiled, “I heard that the new jewelry concept was provided by Master Irene. I wonder if I’m lucky enough to meet Master Irene?”

“Why do you want to meet Master Irene?” Suddenly, Jared’s dark, husky voice came through.

The three in the living room turned their heads in surprise.

Jared, holding Tina’s hand, was coming down the stairs.

Jasmine was momentarily startled, a flush crossing her face as she looked at Jared.

“Miss White, this is Chairman Jared, and Chairman, this is the new head of our design department, Miss Jasmine White,” the HR head whispered to Jasmine.

So bold to stare directly at the Chairman like that, fearless!

Jasmine snapped back to reality, “Hello, Mr. Chairman, I’m Jasmine.”This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Tina looked Jasmine up and down without a word, a smirk playing at her lips, and sat across from Logan.

Jared sat next to Tina, still holding her hand, his expression slightly cold, “Answer my question.”

Jasmine blinked and took a deep breath, “I was hoping to launch some products next quarter based on Master Irene’s series, focusing on simplicity and clarity this year. But it’s hard to surpass Master Irene’s work, so I wanted to talk to her.”

Logan, who was drinking water, nearly choked.

Tina couldn’t hold back either and touched her forehead.

Whether it’s Q, Waverly Underwood, or Irene, why did everyone think about surpassing themselves?

Was she not worthy of standing at the peak of these fields?

Jared squeezed Tina’s palm, seeking her opinion.

Tina looked up and said to Jasmine, “That’s fine, continue with the series. First create your design sketches, then we can discuss the details.”

Jasmine paused, confused by what the young girl beside Jared was saying.

What was she talking about?

Jared scratched his forehead with Tina’s hand, “Tina is Master Irene.”

Jasmine was even more bewildered, exclaiming out of turn, “How is that possible!”

“That’s right, Tina is Master Irene. Just do as she said, bring the designs when they’re ready,” Logan said with a smile.

The HR head cleared his throat, “Miss White, if there’s nothing else, we should leave now, let’s not disturb the Chairman and his wife.”

Jasmine slowly regained her composure, “Oh, alright, then we’ll be going.”

After the pair left, Tina and Jared had dinner and he drove her home.

On the way, Tina suddenly laughed, “Uncle, looks like more fun is on the way.”

Jared and Tina intertwined their fingers, rubbing her fingertips gently, and responded softly, “Yes, more fun is about to happen.”
