Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 132: Trouble for Hugo Amber surveyed her surroundings momentarily. Seizing a moment when the guards at the door were lax, she slipped out, planning to borrow a nearby phone to call the police. By reporting Sean, she, as a student, would publicly sever all ties with him. Only with his incarceration could she gain her freedom. Fleeing in haste, she didn't even wear her shoes, running barefoot on the concrete, desperately racing towards the bus station where a man in a black suit stood. "Sir, may I use your phone? I need to call the police!" she pleaded, ignoring her sore feet as she hurried over.

"Oh?" The man turned around, revealing a face that was handsyet chillingly indifferent. "Call the police?" "Yes, I've spotted a fugitive. I need to report him!" Amber nodded vigorously.

The man scoffed and suddenly, his gloved hand clamped over Amber's mouth, dragging her back to the basement.

It was over! Amber was shocked, realizing this man was in cahoots with Sean.

"Useless!" the man threw Amber in front of Sean. "You can't even keep an eye on your own woman, letting her escape to call the cops!" "Sir, sir!" Sean, initially disheveled on the bed, was terrified at the sight of the man and scrambled off, kneeling on the floor.

Yet, seeing Amber, he couldn't resist slapping her hard. "You traitorous wench! You dare betray me!" Amber shivered, curling up, too frightened to speak.

"Have you forgotten who pulled you out of detention?" Sean lunged to hit her again.

"Waste!" The man kicked Sean to the ground. "The organization sent you back to investigate, and you've done nothing but compete in perfumery, ending up disgraced!" "It was her, she encouragedto confront Tina!" Sean quickly blamed Amber for everything.

"A mere woman clouds your judgment, and you dare talk?" The man's voice grew colder.

"Sir, please letredeem myself!" Sean pleaded, bowing repeatedly. "I promise to secure Tina's perfformulas!" "No need." The man dismissed Sean heartlessly. "I'll take over from here. Follow my lead." "Yes, yes." Sean cowered like a dog, not daring to defy.

Yet the man's gaze shifted to Amber at the side. Overhearing their conversation and pondering their interest in Tina's mother's perfformulas, Amber felt a chill as the man coldly asked, "Weren't you going to call the cops?" "No! No! I was wrong, I won't do it again! I won't call the police!" Amber trembled uncontrollably. "Don't be afraid, here's the phone. Go ahead, call the police," the man paradoxically handed her the phone. Amber took the phone in a daze...

At the Blue Cove Apartments, Tina had been busy settling Lily Fawkes and her siblings all week. The exposure of Lily Fawkes as Tina's student, coupled with Tina's minimalist approach to perfumery - releasing only four scents in five years - had deterred major brands looking for profit. Consequently, many turned their attention to Lily Fawkes. However, due to Quentin and Lily's inexperience, Tina, concerned they might be taken advantage of, had Cole Lyon arrange a legal advisor to review their contracts. Once Tina finished, she returned to Jared Farrell's apartment only to meet his resentful gaze.

"Tina, do I really look that old?" Tina looked up seriously, "You look youthful..." Jared Farrell barely sighed in relief when Tina added, "But your age is indeed advanced, Uncle Farrell." Jared Farrell, "..." Regretting his request to change how she addressed him, he was about to suggest she revert, when Tina's phone rang. It was Jennie.

"Tina, your dad's in trouble!" Jennie said urgently. "Amber has accused him of rape!" "What happened?" Tina's expression darkened more than a stormy sky.

Jared Farrell showed her the news on his phone. The video reported, "This afternoon at two, the East Town police received a report. Perfguru Q's father, Hugo Reed, has been accused of raping his foster daughter, Amber Reed, and is now detained..." The news detailed allegations against Hugo for pedophilia and mentioned how his mother, Elizabeth Reed, testified to protect Amber from him, raising her herself for years.

After watching the entire video, Tina's expression was icy cold.

She put away her phone, her laugh bitterly cold, "Do they all think I'm too good-natured?" Jared Farrell gently touched her head, softly saying, "Don't worry, I'll handle it." "No need, I will handle it myself!" Tina replied, her voice as frosty as her demeanor.

She paused, then returnedJennie's call, "I've seen the news."

"Tina, your dad is not that kind of person!" Jennie sobbed through the phone. "When we adopted Amber, your dad truly cared for her like a E daughter, he was really good to her.

She chose to stay with your grandmother because she was chasing wealth over family."

"I know," Tina's voice softened to reassure her, "Don't wony, if Mr. Reed e is innocent, I'll prove it."

"How could she do this to him after all the good he did for her?" Jennie was bewildered struggling to understand how even in pursuit of revenge, Amber could tarnish her own reputation so drastically. "And your grandmother, how could she say those things about her own son?"
