Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

At this moment, four black cars appeared ahead, closing in on them. The first two cars turned to form a pincer movement.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“Can you handle this?” Tina asked, her face serious as she looked at the two black cars coming at them. “If not, let me do it.”

Jared’s mouth twitched. He freed one hand to pinch Tina’s delicate cheek and said in a slightly aggrieved tone, “Tina! Don’t ever say I can’t do it again!”

He was a normal man! He could definitely handle it!

Tina remained silent, though she suspected Jared was implying something but had no evidence.

Jared turned the steering wheel sharply and stomped on the clutch. One side of the car lifted off the ground, using a trick Tina had previously used in Ensford. The car tilted and swiftly passed through before the two black cars could close in.

Courtney and Hayden clutched their seats in surprise, while Tina laughed. “Not bad, you actually learned that from me.”

The car landed heavily after passing through the black cars’ pincer movement and continued speeding forward.

“My wife taught me well,” Jared replied with a smile.

Tina raised an eyebrow. She noticed Jared was becoming more audacious with his words. Before she could correct him for taking advantage of her, she saw the four black cars turning around to chase them again.

“Persistent bastards!” Tina sneered and extended her right hand towards Hayden. “Did you bring the gear?”

“Got it.” Hayden handed over a silver revolver from his waist.

Tina took the gun, rolled down the window, and fired four shots backward. The bullets precisely hit the fuel tanks of the four chasing black cars.

With a series of explosions, the fuel tanks of the four black cars blew up one after another. The cars collided with each other, leaving no chance for the men inside to escape as they were destroyed along with their vehicles, completely eliminating the pursuit.

“Serena is awesome!” Hayden exclaimed excitedly; it had been years since he last saw Serena perform such an action scene.

However, his excitement caused him to bump into Courtney’s injured left arm.

“Ouch!” Courtney winced in pain, and Hayden quickly restrained himself and apologized repeatedly. “Sorry, sorry, I got too excited!”

“How’s your injury?” Tina tossed the gun back to Hayden and reached out to check Courtney’s wound.

“It’s fine, nothing serious.” Courtney shook her head. “It didn’t hit any vital parts.”

Tina glanced at Courtney’s determined eyes and noticed the bloodstains on Courtney’s knife earlier. That blood certainly wasn’t Courtney’s own.

She saw a bit of herself in Courtney-a lone wolf who always downplayed her injuries and preferred to lick her wounds in solitude, wrapping herself into an indestructible weapon.

“Miss Reed, how did you find me?” Courtney asked curiously.

“The enemy released a lot of false information. Our people spread out to look for you,” Tina replied calmly. “We were lucky to find you just in time.”

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have come so hurriedly with only three people.

“Why did you come to Ashbury alone?” Tina was somewhat angry about Courtney’s actions. If Courtney hadn’t come to Ashbury by herself, today’s incident wouldn’t have happened under her protection.

“In that kidnapping incident, I was exposed. Staying at Ensford High School might endanger other students again.” Courtney shook her head and added, “Besides, I know what you’re looking for. I didn’t take it to Ensford; it’s hidden in Ashbury. I just hadn’t been back for years and wanted to scout ahead.”

“Have you scouted enough?” Tina raised an eyebrow.

“Yes,” Courtney replied while glancing at Jared and Hayden in the car before looking back at Tina with a questioning gaze.

“Do you want to explain or should I?” Tina looked at Jared who was driving.

“I’m ‘Wolf’,” Jared said calmly while keeping his eyes on the road ahead.

“You are ‘Wolf’?!” Courtney was stunned. She had received information that the new leader of her mother’s former team was codenamed ‘Wolf’.

“Lark was my mentor,” Jared added to clarify his allegiance.

Courtney then turned her gaze towards Hayden.

“I’m one of us too,” Hayden said reluctantly with a hint of grievance. “My codename is… ‘Husky’.”

“Pfft!” Courtney couldn’t hold back her laughter.

“Very fitting,” Tina nodded seriously. The codename ‘Husky’ perfectly suited Hayden-silly and talkative.

“Serena!” Hayden protested even more aggrievedly. How could a suave and handsome guy like him be called Husky? It was all Jared’s fault!

Their codenames were decided by drawing lots. While others got cool or sinister names like ‘Silver Fox’, ‘Falcon’, or ‘Viper’, he ended up with ‘Husky’. He was furious when he found out that Jared had rigged the draw by replacing all the slips with ‘Husky’ just for him!

Since then, he had become a laughingstock among his teammates with nicknames like “Silly” or “Huspig”. Just thinking about it made him want to use his revolver on Jared!

Jared ignored Hayden’s murderous glare from behind and said to Courtney, “Since you’re injured, let’s go back to my place first for treatment.”

“No,” Courtney shook her head. “We should go get the item directly; I fear delays might cause more trouble.”

“Alright,” Jared tapped his fingers lightly on the steering wheel before tightening his grip as his face turned serious again. Tina also looked coldly towards the endless woods along the road.

From the left side of the woods came the roar of motorcycle engines growing louder by the second. A group of colorful off-road motorcycles burst out from among the trees, surrounding their three vehicles.

The riders wielded iron rods and baseball bats, striking repeatedly at their car windows.
