Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 749: General Praevion, My Wife is Spectre He rose to pour Jared a cup of tea, continuing, "For instance, the Solomon family is known for fortune-telling and longevity. The Brookes family's secret is telekinesis, and the White family can control living creatures, specifically, they can communicate with animals. People from the Bailey family can see through human hearts. As for the Langdon family, I don't know their own secret technique, but I do know they have stolen something very important." Jared asked, "What is it?" Linden replied, "Our family's ancestral technique allows one to alter a person's muscles and veins in a short twithout causing any harm to the body." Jared suddenly stood up, his voice cold, "Are you saying that the technique to alter muscles and veins belongs to your family?" Seeing Jared's grave expression, Linden felt something was amiss.

It seemed to him that Jared might have heard of this technique before.

Linden also stood up, "You wouldn't be suggesting that you have seen this technique, would you?" Jared nodded, "Recently, Tina and I met a woman. Her martial skills were extraordinary, yet her muscles and bones appeared normal." That day, Jared and Linden talked a lot in the office.

When leaving, Jared even took sdocuments from Linden's drawer.

Stepping out of Linden's office, it was already afternoon.

Thinking of everything he had heard, Jared was about to call Tina without hesitation but paused as he looked up and saw Ruud approaching. "General Praevion." Jared, holding the documents from Linden, intended to greet and leave.

After all.

Being a person who had long resigned from X Bureau, frequently appearing here could easily lead to criticism. Ruud responded coolly, about to pass by Jared when he suddenly remembered this man was the future son-in- law of the Reed family.

He stopped in his tracks, "Wait. Jared, I remember, your fiancée is from the Reed family." A subtle gleam flashed through Jared's eyes, "You're right, General Praevion. Tina's father is Hugo, the third son of the Ensford Reed branch of the Reed family." He didn't mention Tina's relationship with Jasper Reed.

Nor did he know about Tina's biological father, simply choosing the only father Tina had acknowledged so far. Although the two were currently in a cold war.

Ruud, of course, knew he was hiding something but did not mind and cut to the chase, "Have you ever heard of a woman named Tracey in the Reed family?" "Tracey?" Jared frowned.

The nfelt familiar, yet he couldn't recall where he had heard it.

In his memory, neither the Ashbury Reed family nor the Ensford Reed family had a woman by that name, "No. General Praevion, are you looking for this woman for sreason? Perhaps, I can ask Tina when I return." Ruud had always been his idol.

Jared was still willing to help with such a small favor.

Ruud, hearing this, did not decline and looked at Jared, feeling much more favorable towards him now, "Then, thank you very much." "Is there anything else, General Praevion?" Jared said, already edging towards the door.

Ruud, pretending not to notice, spoke again with a heavy tone, "I heard you know Spectre?" Jared's eyebrows barely twitched.

The fact that Tina was Spectre was likely known to quite a few in the Pace family.

Boris was one of them.

Why then did it seem like General Praevion was unaware? Jared's eyes narrowed slightly, "I know her. May I ask what business General Praevion has with Spectre?" Ruud had only discovered a clue, not expecting Jared to actually know Spectre. He said, "It's my father; he has been unwell since being poisoned. I heard Spectre has a miraculous way of healing, and I would like to seek her help. If you could assist in finding her, I will be greatly indebted." Jared looked up, his expression difficult to decipher, and glanced at Ruud.

"General Praevion, don't you know that it was my wife who administered the antidote to Leo last time? She is a Spectre, and she said that once Leo's poison was neutralized, all he needed was to rest well to recover." Jared paused, then added, "Moreover, my wife personally gave your father a pill she developed, which greatly aids in bodily recovery. If your father's condition has worsened again, perhaps you should consider whether there are other causes." Jared rarely spoke so much, but now he had said quite a bit. First, because this man was General Praevion, and second, because someone was trying to use him and Tina as pawns. If he let them succeed, wouldn't that mean he had wasted his intelligence? Upon hearing this, Ruud's eyes narrowed sharply like an eagle's, his aura chilling. Suddenly, he smiled, "I understand." Good! They were plotting against him.

He had already mostly figured out who had poisoned his father. If it weren't for keeping that person around to lure out the mastermind behind the scenes, he would have taken action already. And now they dared to use him? Jared knew that with Ruud's intelligence, he must have guessed what was going on.

He didn't say much more, only, "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now." Ruud nodded, "Thanks." "No need." Returning from the X Bureau.

Tina had already been sitting in the apartment's living room for a long time. Her beautiful peach blossom eyes were fixed intently on the black box on the table. The liquid inside, under the light, looked like fine glass jade. Unfortunately, anyone familiar with it knew that just a little of this substance could kill an entire school! Jared immediately recognized it, "Where did this cfrom? A sample sent from the White family?" "No," Tina recounted the events that had happened in the castle.

"Uncle, I suspect there's a traitor in the White family. According to the Mountain Veil Order's investigation, though many countries are researching biological weapons, domestically, it's only the White family, especially a toxin this pure, it must be connected to them."

Knowing what she was about to say, Jared continued, "I know, but the White family is currently cooperating with us How did that woman get her hands on this, and why would the Langdon family be involved as well? What is she trying to do, make you enemies with the Langdon family?" Tina wasn't sure; she always felt she was entangled in a huge mystery. The mastermind behind the mystery seemed to be leading her step by step deeper into a trap, but for their plan, she had no choice but to follow. However...

Did that woman think she was the only one capable of scheming?

With a scoff, Tina said, "That woman, if I'm not mistaken, must be connected to the Langdon family l master of the met the young Langdon family today, and he bears a resemblance to the woman in red-not strikingly, but there's a definite similarity. There must be sconnection between them." Jared understood and closed the box with one hand, "Since she wants us to be adversaries with the Langdon family, let's play along and give her a performance." "I'll call Paula now and arrange to meet her at the tea house."
