Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 944: An Eye for an Eye

When Tina cdownstairs, she heard the words and a glint of cold light flashed in her eyes.

This kind of was something she wouldn't miss.

Just as River was about to lower her head, Tina stopped her.

"Wait!" Tina interrupted, her voice calm yet carrying a biting chill.

She walked over to River, bent slightly, and gazed down at her. Her tone seemed casual, but it sent shivers

through the room. "Words alone aren't enough. It's always better to be thorough," Tina said.

River glared at her warily. "What are you trying to do?"

Tina smiled, but the icy light in her black-and-white eyes made it clear she wasn't here to be kind.

"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth," Tina replied.

"You smeared my mother's reputation online with fabricated videos. Now, I'll return the favor. Nothing wrong with

that, is there?"

As she spoke, Tina pulled out her phone and began adjusting the angle, pointing it at River's face.

Just as she was about to finalize her shot, a shadow caught the corner of her eye.

She curled her lips into a smirk, turning to point a slender finger at someone.

"I remember Uncle Boris is a master of photography. Why don't we let Uncle Boris shoot this video?"

Boris froze in place. "Me?"

He had no idea what was happening until he saw River kneeling on the floor. His expression changed instantly.

River.

What was she doing here?

River looked up at him at that moment, her bloodshot eyes glaring at him like a ghost seeking vengeance.

Boris instinctively took a step back and blurted out, "Dad..."

Before he could finish, Warren slapped him across the face.

"Don't 'Dad' me! | told you to shoot, so shoot! Stop wasting time. | haven't even dealt with you for the last mess.

If you dare team up with outsiders against your sister-in-law again, I'll break your leg!"

Ruud, standing nearby, added coldly, "What's wrong? You don't want to do it? Or are you hiding something with

River?"

Boris' eyes widened in horror. "No, I'm not!"

Ruud snorted. "Then shoot the video and post it online. Don't letfind out you're still tangled up with the

Swanson family." Terrified, Boris' legs almost gave out. He dared not disobey.

Tina patted him on the shoulder. "Once you're done, upload it. | want to see the public's reaction."

Boris, stiff as a board, stood in front of River and aimed his phone at her.

River's lips trembled with traces of blood. Her hands clenched tightly into fists as she lowered her head and

began speaking.

"| apologize to Alina and Ruud today for my actions. What | did was wrong. | shouldn't have used synthesized

auto defAlina, nor should | have played with my brother's life as a joke. | deeply regret my actions and

promise to never do anything like this again."

After she finished, River bit her lip and slammed her forehead onto the floor in a harsh bow.

Boris recorded the entire scene.

When River's bloodshot eyes suddenly locked onto him, he stumbled backward, nearly dropping his phone.

Luckily, Tina caught it with ease. She glanced at the footage and uploaded it online without hesitation.

Then, she handed the phone back to him. "Uncle Boris, not bad. I'll call you next time."

Boris: "..."

As soon as the video was posted, chaos erupted online.

"Oh, finally apologizing? | thought someone was going to hide forever like a coward."

"That's not a sincere apology. A person who doesn't value human life deserves jail, not forgiveness."

"Alina, don't forgive her. She's not worth it."

"Just kneeling and bowing is too easy. Everyone, push this video to the top. Make sure everyone sees her and

leaves her nowhere to hide."

"If she's really sorry, why is she clenching her fists? If you're unwilling, don't fake it. Hypocrites are the worst."

"And that look in her eyes at the end-like she wanted to kill someone."

"Am | the only one who noticed how sweet Alina and General Praevion look together? Even just standing there,

they were holding hands. So adorable!" "Alina is stunning! She looks no different from her daughter. Such

youthful beauty! And General Praevion is so handsome. Their height difference is so cute!" Alina, scrolling

through the comments, turned to Ruud with a wounded expression.

"Ruud, am | really that much shorter than you?"

Ruud shook his head and scooped her into his arms. "Not at all. In my eyes, you're always the tallest, just like

this."

Alina's face flushed red. She patted his shoulder lightly. "Dad's still here..."

Warren: "Don't mind me. | didn't see anything."

Tina: neither."

Boris swallowed nervously. "I've done what you asked. Can | leave now?"

He didn't dare stay any longer, fearing River might actually turn into a ghost and pounce on him.

Warren waved him off dismissively, then called for someone to drag River, who could barely stand, out of the

house. "Get her out of my sight."

After breakfast, Warren left the house, leaving Ruud's family of three in the hall. Alina finished her last sip of milk

and casually asked Tina, "Did you get the result?"

Tina smiled faintly. "Just waiting for the fish to take the bait."

Ruud, catching on, whined. "You two went ahead withoutagain!"

Tina couldn't be bothered to respond.

Now that the bait was set, she didn't believe the fox wouldn't cout of its hole.

That night, Boris received a call in his room. The voice on the other end was hoarse. "Did you find it?"

"Not yet. I've searched everywhere in the Pace family's estate. | suspect it isn't here."

The woman on the phone sneered. "Are you sure you've checked every corner of the Pace family's property?"

Boris hesitated for a moment. "There's... one place left."

"My father's study."

The next day, Tina woke up to a message from Jared.

He mentioned that he, Logan, and their parents would visit the Pace family at noon to discuss her marriage

arrangements.

During breakfast, Warren cleared his throat.

"Alina, Ruud, don't go out today. We have important guests coming."

Alina nodded. "Got it, Dad."

Ruud, confused, asked, "Important guests? Why didn't you mention this before?"

Warren gave him an exasperated look.

"Who else but our in-laws? Logan's family is coming to discuss Tina's marriage."

Ruud froze, his voice rising tically. "Why are they coming?"

Warren nearly grabbed his cane to hit him.

Meanwhile, Tina calmly sipped her milk, checking the time.

It wouldn't be long before Uncle arrived.

Two days apart, and she was already starting to miss him.
