Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee
Chapter 68: Another Identity

At a certain restaurant.

Tina stood at the entrance of the restaurant, glanced around, pulled her duckbill cap down to obscure her face, and stepped into the restaurant. She walked to the door of a private room, opened it, and went in.

The person inside immediately stood up upon her entry, "Young Master!"

This person was also dressed in black, wearing a duckbill cap, but unlike Tina, he was also wearing a mask. If he didn't look up, even his eyes would be hidden. His name was Jayden.

This wasn't his real name. Ever since he had started following Tina, he was called by this name. As for his real family name, it had been long forgotten. Tina closed the door behind her, gave him a glance, and said coldly, "Don't choose this kind of place next time."

"Yes."

Tina sat down, poured herself a cup of tea, and took a sip.

It was good tea, but it couldn't compare to the fresh and sweet tea grown by Jennie's family.

"Young Master, I've searched all over Moon Gate Estate and haven't found the other vial of the potion," Jayden, standing behind Tina, said solemnly.

Tina frowned, "Have you checked everywhere?"

"I've checked everywhere. I've even moved the tiles in their restroom, nothing," Jayden answered. "I've installed a listening device in Elizabeth's room, and she's never mentioned anything about the potion. Could it be that the information was wrong and the potion isn't there?"

"It's not wrong," Tina declared with gravity. "My mother took away two vials of the potion. One is with me, the other was left with them."

This was what her mother had told her on her deathbed.

At the time, her mother, not wanting to involve her in the affair, had no intention of telling her, but at the last moment, after a phone call, she changed her mind.

Her mother handed her one of the vials, telling her to protect it well, and informed her that the other was at Moon Gate Estate...

Her mother passed away before she could finish.

The primary purpose of Tina's visit to the Reed family was to replace that potion.

"Could it be in Hugo's possession?" Jayden suggested. "I've searched every corner, and if it's not there, then it's only Hugo left."

Tina shook her head, "It's not with him either."

She had thoroughly searched Hugo's house when she first moved in, replaceing no trace of the potion.

After going to Pinkwater Ally, she had searched again with the same result.

That's why she had sent Jayden to the Reed family.

No potion at the Reed family's-this was a mystery.

"Is it possible that Hugo, knowing the importance of the potion, didn't keep it at home?" Jayden questioned.

Tina's expression faltered. Perhaps that was indeed the case?

But besides at home, where else could Hugo have placed the potion?

"Why don't you ask Hugo directly?" Jayden suggested.

"I can't ask." Tina's brows were lowered, her facial expression unreadable.

What Hugo's true character was remained unclear.

It wasn't certain whether he was as kind-hearted as he seemed.

Or whether he was feigning kindness to obtain something from her.

More importantly, asking him directly without confirming whether the potion was in his possession could easily lead to mistakes.

She had to be sure that Hugo was truly trustworthy.

"What should we do next?" Jayden paused before adding, "Oh, by the way, recently two groups have also been looking for the potion. One is GTO, and the other's identity is unknown. I didn't want to startle the snakes, so I didn't interfere." Tina's brow furrowed, "GTO has found Moon Gate Estate so quickly?"

"Yes, Young Master, you're in danger now."

Tina suddenly laughed, "Shouldn't they be the ones in danger?" Jayden, "..."

I knew you would say that!

Our Young Master always has such unfathomable confidence.

Tina took another sip of tea and stood up, "Have your people withdraw from Moon Gate Estate. You don't need to worry about things here anymore."

"But you..."

Tina patted his shoulder, revealing a mischievous smile, "Brother, your Young Master has nine lives! I can't die."

Jayden, "..."

Tina left the tea house and returned to Pinkwater Ally.

Jared and the others hadn't left yet.

Seeing her return, Jennie immediately greeted her, "Tina, have you gone out to eat?"

"Not yet." She had been thinking about that bowl of noodles.

"I've already prepared the noodles; just wait a moment, I'll go cook them for you." Knowing that Tina probably hadn't eaten, Jennie hurried to the kitchen to cook the noodles. Inthe living room, Logan and Hugo were playing chess, while Sophia was on the balcony playing with a toy that Tina had bought for Zackary.

Jared, Hayden, and Nathan were each holding a mobile phone, seemingly engrossed in whatever they were viewing.

Tina sat down on the sofa, directly across from Jared, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

Jayden had mentioned that another group was looking for the potion, and she guessed it likely had something to do with Jared.

His mention of her mother today was no coincidence.

Was his appearance at Serenity Ridge deliberately orchestrated?

How intriguing!

"Here's your noodles, Tina. Eat while they're hot," Jennie brought over the bowl, and Tina thanked her, picking up the chopsticks to eat.

She was truly hungry.

"Ha ha! I lost!" Logan suddenly burst out laughing, "Hugo, I didn't expect you to be so good. I won't claim to be a great chess player, but the number of people who can beat me can be counted on one hand. You're impressive." Jared, "..."

Are you sure it's your chess skills that won the game?

Logan: Of course, my chess skills are unmatched, a rare adversary indeed.

Jared: You won!

"Oh, it's nothing. I just play casually with others when I have nothing to do. I'm no match for you," Hugo said modestly, though he couldn't help feeling a bit proud inside.

With your level of skill, even a novice could win, right?

"I like your temperament. I'll come to play chess with you whenever I'm free," Logan said, taking a liking to Hugo's family.

Hugo was honest and upright.

Jennie was gentle and dignified, also kind.

And Tina, needless to say, was flawless in his eyes.

During the few days in Ensford, he had found a rare sense of comfort.

"Sure." Hugo had initially held a bias against Logan and Jared, not knowing them well.

But after some interaction, he found them quite agreeable. Logan was down-to-earth and approachable, never looking down on their family's poverty.

Jared was well-mannered and articulate, not fitting the rumors of being a wastrel at all.

After finishing her meal, Tina was about to take the bowl to wash it, but Jennie took it from her, insisting on doing it herself.

Tina didn't argue further.

She glanced at the lively group in the living room, then approached Hugo and Logan, pouring a cup of tea for each, and suddenly asked, "Mr. Reed, you've known my mother for nine years. Do you know what kind of person she was?" At her words, Jared's finger, holding the mobile phone, paused slightly, and he looked at her with a hint of surprise.

Her question seemed to be directed at him.
