Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Max was stunned into silence by the young girl before him.

Eagle Flies said no more, picking up the pass from the table and standing to leave.

Max adjusted his tie and took a deep breath.

Dealing with the tiger, he always had to endure something.

After leaving Max’s press conference, Eagle Flies took a small path and emerged in a different guise.

Dressed in a tank top and overalls, wearing a cap, and carrying a canvas bag, she looked every bit the student.

She stood at the crossroads, and soon a black Volkswagen car stopped in front of her.

“Is this the Uber?” Eagle Flies asked.

The driver, sunglasses on, stuck his head out, “Yes, hop in, young lady.”

Eagle Flies smiled, opened the car door, and quickly, the unassuming Volkswagen disappeared into the traffic.

“Captain Wolf, can’t you get me a different car next time? This one really doesn’t suit my style,” Hayden complained softly, one hand on the handle, the other on the car door.

In the passenger seat, Jared turned his head, ignoring Hayden’s grumble.

In the backseat, Eagle Flies took off her hat and greeted Tina, “Long time no see.”

“It’s been a while, you’ve grown taller,” Tina smiled.

The two didn’t exchange pleasantries for long and quickly got to the point.

“Since the mission to assassinate Hawk ended, I’ve been left without assignments, lingering in Ashbury. After the research base was destroyed by someone named Angela, I wasn’t given any orders until yesterday when I was suddenly notified to meet Max and give him a mission.”

Tina nodded, “Have you met your boss?”

“No, I only know our boss is called Five Poisons. Missions are assigned through online messages. I’ve tried to trace them, but there are no clues.” Eagle Flies took out her phone, showing a forum where Five Poisons posted the missions.

Tina logged onto a mini-computer to try and trace it, but also found no leads.

“They’re using an enhanced local network left by our master; we can’t trace it with our capabilities,” Jared said, turning around.

Natalie had once created a hacking tool, but over the years GTO had strengthened their systems, and any sub-versions left by Natalie were now locked at X Bureau’s headquarters, likely already stolen by traitors.

Breaking into GTO’s internal network was now impossible.

Tina sighed, exasperated by her mother’s intelligence!

Eagle Flies put her phone away, “As for the bomb on the ship, I wasn’t aware. It was another team from Five Poisons.”

“Another team?”

“Yes,” Eagle Flies nodded. “Since Mr. White was captured, I thought Five Poisons would activate us subordinates, but it hasn’t happened. The organization still operates smoothly, so I suspect Mr. White wasn’t really the second in command, or there are others at his level still active.”

“So you mean to say, there’s more than one deputy under Five Poisons?” Hayden asked.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

“Yes, like this recent bombing was arranged by another deputy in Clearwater, but I still need to investigate who exactly it is.”

Eagle Flies had his suspicions about Tina before. For instance, if it hadn’t been for this trip to Clearwater, where he discovered the biotech issue, Tina would never have suspected Max.

Therefore, Jasmine is likely not the second in command at GTO, but rather the person in charge of the Ashbury area.

Who, then, is in charge of Clearwater?

And are the Five Poisons really here?

“Captain, that’s all I know for now. I’m leaving, but I’ll inform you if there’s any follow-up,” Eagle Flies said as he put his hat back on.

Hayden parked the car at a certain location, and Eagle Flies got out.

After she left, Jared moved to the back seat. “What should we do about Max?”

Tina narrowed her eyes. “The experimental base in Clearwater is near the Hancock family’s factory. We’ll wait for him to slip up.”

Jared agreed, “Yeah, the Lyon family will soon be swallowed up by Max too. Once someone gets too arrogant, they’re bound to make a mistake.”

The two exchanged a smile, anticipating the final roundup.

Meanwhile, Warren and Oliver, for the first time in years, agreed on a course of action.

They completely sidelined Grandma Lyon and Sonia, seizing full control of the Lyon Group.

“Where is the Hancock family contract? Speak clearly, you old fool!” Megan slammed her hand on the table, loudly demanding answers.

Grandma Lyon, having been beaten by Leah a few days ago, could hardly speak.

“Ah, ah, ah… uh… uh…”

Megan, growing impatient, kicked Grandma Lyon’s wheelchair away and grabbed Sonia by the hair. “You little wretch, where is the contract?”

Unable to fight back, Sonia endured the pain and said, “I don’t know.”

“Hmph, I’ll tell you this-Warren is the eldest son. Even if he shares the inheritance with Oliver, you have no part in it, you little widow. Hurry up and produce the contract with the Hancock family, and add your brothers’ names to it, or you’ll regret it.”

Warren and Oliver, as if they saw nothing, sat quietly by, letting their wives control the Lyon family.

After all, the Lyon family’s fortune would ultimately flow to them, sparing them the hassle.

Their children and grandchildren remained detached and unconcerned.

Now, Grandma Lyon was nothing but a useless invalid, and their aunt had only been fierce because of their grandmother’s backing.

A useless person in charge of another made for little concern.

Under pressure from Megan and Leah, Sonia had no choice but to produce the contract with the Hancock family and amend it to include Warren and Oliver’s names.

It wasn’t too late; Leah immediately produced a stock transfer document, instructing Sonia to divide her own shares equally among her four children.

After signing a series of documents, Sonia was discarded to the side, severing all ties with the Lyon family fortune.

Leah glanced at the table, spotting a document from the safe that was indecipherable. “Sonia, what is this?”

Sonia lowered her gaze. “I heard from dad that it seems to be a debt contract, but I’m not sure about the details. Mom wanted to leave it to Marie, so I never asked.”

Leah and Megan exchanged looks, assuming it was worthless and disdainfully tossed it aside.

“From now on, if you stay in this house, you’ll owe us rent for each day, or don’t blame us for kicking you out,” Megan snorted coldly, pulling Leah aside to discuss how to divide the Lyon family’s assets.
