Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 701: Is This Mind Reading?

Jared stared intently at Ruud, as if trying to see through him. Despite his vast experience in reading people, he could not decipher the thoughts of Sinoria's General Praevion. With just a glance, Ruud seemed to read Jared's mind and scoffed, "You're wondering why I know these things? What is my purpose in saying them in front of you? Am I betraying you?" Jared was speechless.

"Can you read minds or what?"

Wait?

This way of speaking, why does it feel so familiar?

Ruud stood up, his expression cold, and looked at him briefly.

"Kid, you're still young. After a few more years, you'll understand that things aren't as simple as they appear on the surface."

With that, Ruud turned and walked away. As he reached the door, he suddenly paused, turned back to Jared and said, "From today, the X Bureau will be a thing of the past!"

Then, without further delay, he left.

Jared watched Ruud's retreating figure, his eyes lowered, lost in thought. After a moment, he looked up at the X Bureau and then turned to leave.

Meanwhile, Tina went to Flame Ice, directing Cole to focus on finding her father. After Cole reported on recent tasks, Tina left; Jared was also out on business, and she suddenly realized she didn't know where to go. Then she remembered it had been a long time since she took Zackary and Sophia out for fun. With nothing else to do today, she decided to take the two little ones out. Her location was close to the Reed family, so she went straight there to pick up Zackary. When Tina arrived, only Jennie was home. Jennie, surprised at first, soon smiled and said, "Tina? You're here?"

Since Hugo had been busy with his perfume company, and Tina also had her own affairs, she had scarcely visited in the past six months. Hugo had tried to invite Tina over for a meal several times, calling her, but she was always too busy to get away. Jennie knew about Natalie being hospitalized and had planned to visit in the next few days, but Tina arrived first.
