Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 74: She is My Mother Beatrice frowned upon hearing Amber's words and was tempted to send her away. However, considering the severity of Sophia's disfigurement and Amber's success in treating it, she had to suppress her irritation.

"Sorry, Miss Reed," Beatrice apologized, "Shonna has becthis self-conscious ever since her disfigurement; she refuses to let anyone see her. Just wait a moment, I'll try to persuade her." Amber nodded, her expression growing increasingly impatient. The room had not been aired out and there was an unpleasant odor; if it weren't for the potential future help from Beatrice, she would have turned around and left immediately. Beatrice approached Shonna and whispered, "Shonna, this Miss Reed is a very talented doctor. You know about Miss Farrell's case; hers was even worse than yours, and she cured her. Let her take a look, and if you're cured, you'll be able to go out with confidence again." Shonna remained silent, her head buried between her knees.

"You've been out of school for half a year now. Didn't you say you wanted to go to college? If you keep missing school, you won't be able to take the exams this year!" Beatrice mentioned.

At the mention of this, Shonna finally seemed moved. She lifted her head, revealing scars that were quite grotesque, but her eyes were filled with tears. "But I'm so far behind now. Even if I take the exams, I won't be able to get in." "You've been in the top ten of your grade every year. I'll find you a few good tutors to catch up. With your intelligence, you can definitely get in," Beatrice said with patience. Shonna hesitated.

Amber, who was getting impatient, interjected, "Mrs. Woodham, Miss Woodham, perhaps we should reschedule. I'm very busy with my studies and can't afford to waste time." Beatrice frowned, mindful that she needed Amber's help, and spoke in a more amiable tone, "Please wait a little longer..." Before she could finish, Shonna stood up, approached Amber, and said softly, "Sorry, Miss Reed, for keeping you waiting. Please, could you examine me?" Only then did Amber see Shonna's face, which was covered in scars and quite ugly. She instinctively showed a look of disgust, which Shonna caught sight of. The courage Shonna had mustered began to falter. "Sit down, I'll take your pulse," Amber said haughtily.

Shonna obediently sat down.

After checking her pulse, Amber declared, "It's not a big problem. I'll write you a prescription. Take the medicine according to my instructions for three consecutive days, and I'll cback to check after three days." Beatrice, thrilled, asked, "Really? Can Shonna's face be restored to what it was before?" "Yes," Amber responded, "but she must follow my prescription strictly. First, we need to clear the heat toxins from her body, then I'll apply my medicinal ointment." "Thank you so much, I'll be sure to reward you handsomely if you can cure Shonna's condition," an excited Beatrice exclaimed.

After exchanging pleasantries, Amber wrote the prescription and left.

Beatrice immediately had someone go to get the medicine, but Shonna, for sreason, felt a sense of unease. She took Beatrice's hand and said in a whisper, "Mom, can I not take the medicine? I don't trust this Miss Reed..." "Shonna, you can trust Miss Reed. At the Reed family's banquet, I heard everyone talking about how she cured Sophia. It can't be wrong," Beatrice reassured her.

Seeing her mother so confident, Shonna reluctantly agreed.

At the amusement park.

Zackary and Sophia were having a great time. Zackary, who had been bullied by his uncles, aunts, and cousins at Moon Gate Estate, had developed a timid and weak character. Jennie had no say in the Reed family, and Hugo was also bullied, so Zackary hardly ever visited the amusement park. The only the did was because he tagged along with Talon's son, Bobby, as an accessory.

The little guy was so excited today, dancing with joy, trying almost every ride he could.

Sophia, previously ostracized for her disfigurement, had becself-conscious and reluctant to go out, and she had never been to the amusement park either. Now, being able to proudly enjoy her favorite things, she was also very happy. Tina, Jared, Hayden, and Nathan followed the two kids, their hearts lifting at the sight of their happy faces.

Suddenly, Tina's phone rang.

It was Velma on the other end. "Tina, where are you? Could you please helpsee a patient? It's very urgentAfter the call at Reed family's banquet, Velma knew that Tina was the one who had cured Sophia.

"Okay, sendthe address," Tina said, agreeing after only a brief hesitation.

Velma was the first friend she made after arriving in Ensford, and Tina was willing to help wherever she could. After hanging up, Tina received the address from Velma. She informed Jared, "I have something to take care of and need to leave. Please look after Zackary for me." "Do you need my help?" Jared asked, turning to her.

"No need," Tina replied after a pause. "I probably won't be back soon. Take Zackary out for a meal, it's on me!" Jared replied, "... I can afford to treat my future nephew to a meal." Tina smiled slightly, "Does 'nephew' roll off the tongue nicely?" As if it were obvious, Jared said, "We're getting engaged the day after tomorrow; I'm just practicing in advance." Tina leaned in close to his ear, "Don't celebrate too soon. Engagements can be broken." She had never intended to marry Jared. The engagement was merely a matter of circumstance; she needed to find out why Jared had the pendant, why he mentioned her mother, and most importantly, why he was searching for the whereabouts of a certain drug. If Jared turned out to be an enemy, not only could they not be together, but she would also take matters into her own hands.

Velma's address led to a private hospital. Tina took a taxi straight there.

Upon arriving, she went to the inpatient department where Velma was waiting at the entrance, maiting Om accompanied by someone else. From a distance, Tina couldn't make out the person's face. When Velma saw Tina, she hurriedly said, "Tina, over here..." As Tina approached, she recognized the person standing next to Velma and was momentarily surprised.

The person also recognized Tina and, with a delighted surprise, said, "It's you, young lady!" It was the sdignified lady who had been with the old lady Tina had recently saved.

Tina, not knowing her name, nodded politely, "Yes, it's me." "Huh? Mom! You know each other?" Velma asked in confusion.

Tina just replied, "... Mom?" "Yes, she's my mother!"

Velma then turned to Mrs. Lehman and said, "Mom, this is Tina, the one I told you about. She's really kind and also a very impressive doctor. I asked her to csee grandma, but how do you two know each other? You never mentioned her before!"

Mrs. Lehman was initially taken aback but then laughed, "So you're the Miss Reed that Velma keeps talking about on the phone. We are indeed fated. You've helped Velma with her studies and saved my mother-in-law; our family owes you a great deal."
