Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Chapter 723: Serena, Please Save My Grandfather



At the bustling barbecue restaurant, Tina was enjoying the food Jared was feeding her. Suddenly remembering something, Tina looked up and asked, "Has there been any news from Eric's side?"

Jared flipped a sizzling piece of meat on the grill and shook his head, "That guy is good at hiding. If it really involves him, his people wouldn't just let him be caught."

Tina agreed deeply, "Ever since Dorothy Russell disappeared, it seems like GTO has been quiet too."

Jared served her a piece of grilled meat, "Do you think GTO didn't do this?"

Tina shook her head, although she had no evidence. But she just had a feeling, "If GTO really had such a thing, they would have used it by now. They wouldn't wait until now and still have Eric do the job." "Uncle, I want that," she casually pointed at a steak on the plate. Tina continued, "If I'm not wrong, this matter should be related to that woman in red. That potion, it's not really a potion, it's like a refined kind of poison spell." "It's used to confuse the nerves, the exact effects are still pending the experimental report from Lockie's side."

Jared was surprised, "Mom has been unconscious, this kind of drug should not work on someone who's asleep. Could it actually force someone to wake up?"

Since marrying Tina, Jared naturally started calling Natalie 'mom.' Although Natalie hadn't woken up yet, that didn't stop him from calling her that.

Tina laughed lightly, pulling out a napkin to wipe her mouth, "The human brain has always been the most complex entity in the world. Modern medicine can at most control one aspect of a person's emotions but cannot fully control their body. It's impossible to completely wake someone who is comatose."

If such a drug existed, vegetative states wouldn't be a major problem in medicine.

"No matter what, since they're targeting our mom, we can't stay in the hospital anymore. Are you full?"

Jared deeply believed in Tina's words. As he spoke, he stood up following Tina's movements. Before Tina could respond, Jared's phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID, stunned. Lysander? How did he get my number? Of course, he had saved it just in case this young admirer tried to steal his Tina.

"What's wrong?"

After Tina paid with Jared's card, she turned and saw his furrowed brow, leaned over to look. Seeing the familiar name, she uttered in confusion, "Lysander?"

She naturally took the phone from Jared and answered, "Lysander, what's the matter?"

"Tina, it's bad! Your cousin has had an accident, check the trending news!"

No sooner had he spoken than Lysander's anxious words followed.

At the same time, outside the barbecue restaurant, a luxury car amidst the screams of the crowd, its tires screeching against the ground, creating striking sparks, came to a steady stop in front of the restaurant. Then, the car doors opened, and two figures dashed past the crowd like the wind!

Bystander woman: What just flew by?! College student: A luxury car! So cool, I want one too!

"That Kylie Lambert is still blabbing online, Juliet has already been taken home by her agent. But the online public opinion about her is really bad, they couldn't find you, so they called me."

Arthur had been frantically searching before he finally found his way here. Lysander spoke rapidly, causing Tina's expression to darken further. As he finished, the receptionist trembled, looking at the once charming young girl with concern. It was terrifying, truly frightening!

"Serena! Mr. Farrell!"

However, before Tina could speak, the tightly shut door of the shop burst open, and before anyone could get a clear look, two more people had joined them at the reception. Paula and Hayden appeared extremely anxious, especially Paula, whose eyes were red as if she had been crying. Her usually cheerful demeanor was replaced by one of utter desperation.

She didn't even notice what Tina was doing, grabbing her hand urgently, "Serena, you have to help me, my grandfather, he can barely hold on!" "Lysander, wait a moment."

Tina looked around; it was mealtime, and the eyes of many patrons in the barbecue restaurant were fixed on them. Jared quickly sensed her discomfort and signaled Hayden, who responded and was the first to pull Paula aside, "This isn't the place to talk. Let's go outside."

Jared put his arm around Tina's shoulder, "I have a property nearby, let's go there."

In the car, Jared sat in the passenger seat, looking through the rearview mirror at the scene behind him. Paula half leaned on Tina, crying bitterly, looking pitiful. Jared glanced at Hayden, who was driving, and his look seemed to say, "Is that all you can do?"

making Hayden sweat nervously.

"My Mr. Farrell, are you really jealous over this?"

"What exactly is going on?"

Jared had known Hayden for a long time but had never seen him this serious before.

Tina, overwhelmed by Paula holding onto her, struggled to breathe. Yet, anytime she moved slightly, the girl clung even tighter. Helplessly, she soothed, "You start by telling me what's going on. What happened to him?"

Just the other day, she had settled Juliet's matter and had arranged for a company statement. Her phone hadn't even been put down when Paula and another had rushed over in a panic, one crying, the other with a grave expression. They had been in the car for several minutes now without speaking.

Finally pulling herself together, Paula stood up from Tina and said, "My grandfather, I don't know what poison he's ingested. This morning, he suddenly started jumping around the house." "Jumping?"

Tina's incredulity was almost palpable.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Jared also raised an eyebrow at this. Jumping as a sign of poisoning?

Having cried enough, Paula wiped her tears, "Yes, jumping. I have a video, I can show you. His limbs were flailing uncontrollably, his eyes vacant, and he couldn't hear us calling him, as if he were possessed. Right, Hayden?" Driving, Hayden hastily nodded, "Yes, yes, yes, Serena, you should have seen it. Old man White's actions were just like those erratic jumps you see on TV."

He had been shocked when he went to fetch Paula. Normally, Old man White was a very composed and dignified person in his eyes. Who would have thought that one day he would flail about as if he had just grown limbs, his movements stiff, his face turning blue, looking like a freshly unearthed zombie.

"Mr. Farrell, I also took photos. See for yourself, it was really frightening. At first glance, I thought a zombie apocalypse had come true."

He handed his phone to Jared, while Tina held Paula's phone.
