Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 410: The Bomb Was Placed by Jasper

He didn't know exactly what the organization did, but Jasper's position as second in command proved his high

status. Ever since Tina began to settle scores with the Reed family, he knew that Jasper's deeds would one day

cto light. He hadn't interacted much with Tina. Though their bond wasn't deeply familial, he could tell that

her outward demeanor didn't reflect her true self. Her involvement with the Reed family was partly due to

Natalie's death and possibly due to the organization behind Jasper.

Thus, he revoked Jasper's position as head of the family, hoping to divert Tina and Jared's attention while secretly

aiding Jasper. All this was merely his way of making amends. Jasper's smile froze on his face, perhaps distorted

by the side lighting, making his otherwise gentle features appear fierce and terrifying. "Compensate? Ha, you're

talking toabout compensation?" Jasper glared intensely at Muff's retreating figure, a hint of hatred flickering

in the depths of his eyes. "You don't know what I've been through; you don't deserve to speak of forgiveness!"

Jasper would forever remember the poison injected into his body, the lashes that scarred his flesh, the repeated

oppression of his personality. He would never forget. The pain was so chilling that even now, it made him shiver.

Tina, observing Jasper's expression, could imagine what he had endured. Schose to perish or be reborn in

the abyss, but others, like Jasper, only continued to drag more innocents into the depths. His experiences would

inflict similar pain on others, satisfying him and affirming his existence.

Muff, leaning on the back of the sofa, slowly stood and approached Jasper. "Your hatred is not blamed, whether

you're my biological son or not. | owe you, and if you wish to kill me, then do so." "Grandfather!" Griffin stepped

in front of Muff, "Jasper, if you must kill, kill me, but don't harm Grandfather, please!"

Jasper harshly pushed Damian aside and embraced Muff. Looking over his shoulder deeply at Tina, he said,

"Tina, the new type of bomb in Jared's car was set by me, and | crafted it myself. | knew you ctoday for my

life, so here it is." Suddenly, he held a bomb remote, his thumb pressing hard on the red button. "No!" Esther

screamed, and inside Whispering Pines, all went silent. The expected explosion did not occur.

Jasper pressed the button repeatedly, but still, no explosion ensued. Tina laughed out loud, her laughter cutting

through the quiet, sounding unusually crisp. "Surprised?" Tina looked at Jasper with a faint smile. Jasper stared at

her in shock. "How could this be? What did you do?" Tina's smile deepened. "I overestimated your intelligence.

You hid the bomb in Muff's cane, such a low intelligence move. How could Mr. White ever choose you as his

stand-in?" Jasper looked at her as if seeing a monster. "How did you know?" He had considered all the ways Tina

could possibly discover it. He had avoided such risks, yet she had still found out. "Your bomb wasn't strong

enough to cause a significant explosion; it would have only killed you two," Tina said as she walked forward and

picked up Muff's cane.

She glanced indifferently at Jasper and said leisurely, "Your mistake was using a remote-controlled device. If it

had required manual detonation like before, | wouldn't have been able to alter the controller's program." Jasper

finally understood. Tina had discovered the new bomb long ago!

He had lost.

Suddenly, Jasper pushed Muff aside, drew a knife from his waist, and charged at Tina.

Hayden was faster, darting forward to subdue him.

"Thought you could ambush Serena?" Hayden held Jasper, realizing Tina hadn't moved an inch.

Not only that, Jared also sat upright.

Something was amiss!

Jasper cursed under his breath, already finding himself unable to move.

Tina had drugged him!

With his last bit of strength, he raised his head to look at Jared. "Why didn't you kill me?"

Jared shrugged. "The wife wouldn't allow it."

Jasper paused, then understanding dawned on him. He chuckled softly, a tear trickling down his cheek. "Tina,

you and your mother are convinced | could never truly intend to kill." How could he possibly harm the daughter

of the woman he loved most?

Hearing this, Tina scoffed, "Indeed, you never intended to really kill my mother, but your murderous intent

wasn't fake either. Feigning deep affection? Are you worthy?" Jasper, his eyes narrowed, remained silent.

He truly loved Natalie, enough to want a life together.

He always felt Natalie was a ray of light in his life, bringing hope to his darkest secrets.

Thus, even in the end, he couldn't bring himself to kill Natalie.

Now, he couldn't bring himself to harm Tina either.

She was Natalie's biological daughter, bearing the shadow of the woman he loved. How could he possibly bring

himself to harm her?

That gesture was just a ploy to have Jared kill him instead.

To avoid arrest by Bureau X.

But he hadn't expected Tina to see right through him.

Tina coldly glanced at Jasper. Her hatred for the man never waned.

No matter how much he spared her, it was just self-delusion.

Did he really think he could kill her once he set his mind to it?

"Take him away." Jared finally stood, waving his hand in the air, signaling Hayden to take Jasper down.

Hayden pulled out his belt, using it to bind Jasper's hands.

Only Hayden would think to use a belt as handcuffs, grabbing Jasper with one hand and holding up his pants with

the other.

Turning around, they saw several Bureau X officers at the door, handcuffs in hand, looking at them speechlessly.

Hayden cursed, handing Jasper over to the officers.

Jere), TT

Whose child is this that lacks a brain?

Bureau X team member: This is your squad leader.

Jared: No! | don't have such an embarrassing squad leader.

Tina: | don't have such an embarrassing brother!

Jasper was arrested and taken away by Bureau X.

After they took him, Tina also began packing to leave the Reed family.

Her mother's death was related to Jasper but not significantly.

The mystery of whose call her mother took before choosing suicide still needed investigation.

She believed that once she exposed the head of GTO, she would find the answers she sought.
