Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 660: Extremely High Surgical Risks

Brandon's smile froze on his face as the bowl in his hand crashed to the floor with a clattering sound. This noise drew everyone's attention. "Brandon, you've actually broken Kiki and Mimi's bowl, you're done for, your wallet is definitely not going to survive this!" someone exclaimed. "Brandon, what were you thinking? You can't even wash dishes properly, and you insisted on trying, only to mess it up!" another chided.

"Oh dear, Kiki and Mimi aren't mad. I'll buy you new ones, and have your Uncle Brandon pay for them!" Brandon tried to appear calm, squeezing out a weak smile and playfully addressing Kiki and Mimi, "Sorry, Kiki and Mimi, Uncle Brandon's hands are all cut up, don't you feel sorry for him?"

Isaac immediately took the two children away, "Kiki and Mimi, when you look for boyfriends, don't choose someone like him."

Jack and Gavin also hurriedly left, finding the scene too embarrassing to watch. Once everyone had left, Natalie took out a bottle of medicinal powder and sprinkled it on Brandon's cuts, which quietly began to heal.

"Brandon, don't be so surprised. If it weren't for Tina, there wouldn't even be a two percent chance," Natalie smiled at Brandon.

"Don't tell dad, I don't want him to worry. Just say I went to see Tina's dad and won't be back for a long time, okay?"

Brandon fought back tears, his eyes reddening as he struggled not to let them fall. Even with Tina and Natalie together, the odds were still only two percent.

"Alina, can't we just not do it?"

Brandon struggled one last time.

"No, we have to," Natalie affirmed, leaving no room for further discussion. This was something that could not be stopped.

In the yard, Ian and Tina were engrossed in a tense game of chess, neither willing to yield. Just as the game was about to conclude, Ian suddenly asked, "Tina, what does your mother want to do?"

Tina's hand trembled slightly, a smile curling at her lips, "Go out to eat, shop, and watch a movie."

Ian tapped her head, "She's my daughter, she can't hide it from me!" Tina could no longer control herself, dropping a chess piece onto the board where it wobbled before settling.
