Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 993: Sealing the News The phone rang, and Jennie's voice came through, hushed and deliberate. "Tina, I

heard from Hayden that you specifically asked him to talk to Oliver. Your aunt feels so grateful that she insisted I call you to say thank you."

Tina's response was calm. "No need for thanks, Jennie. Hayden didn't have much to do anyway. Just treat him to a meal."

Jennie chuckled lightly on the other end. "A guest is a guest, and he helped with such an important matter. How can I let him off so easily? I remember Hayden likes my homemade hand-pulled noodles. I'll make some extra for him later."

Tina suddenly thought of something. "By the way, Jennie, last time Aunt gave me a jade pendant by the elevator, saying it was a family heirloom. I'll bring it over to you next time."

Jennie sighed. "Nancy... even at a time like this, she's still thinking about such things. If only back then we could have-" She caught herself mid-sentence, realizing she had said too much. "Tina, don't overthink it. Your aunt is just overly sensitive. Give it to me later, and I'll keep it safe."

Tina agreed, not pressing further.

It was clear Jennie deeply cared for and protected her younger sister. Some things,

even if asked, wouldn't necessarily yield an objective response.

After hanging up, Tina heard faint movements from Uncle outside.

The busy morning had finally quieted down, leaving Tina feeling mentally and physically drained. Within minutes of lying down, she fell into a deep sleep.

The dream continued.

This time, she saw Claudia devouring a human heart. Blood dripped everywhere as Claudia's piercing gaze locked onto Tina. A sinister smile curved at her lips. "Tina, none of these people are as good as you!"

A chill ran through Tina as her eyes hardened. She tried to activate her powers with a wave of her hand, but something restrained her. Her abilities had vanished.

Claudia's figure suddenly lunged closer, her beautiful face twisted with lethal intent. Bloodied fingertips aimed straight for Tina's heart.

Tina jolted awake, frowning at the emptiness of her bedroom. She got up to inspect the room's contents.

She didn't believe in ghosts or spirits.

If the first dream could be attributed to the emotional instability caused by her pregnancy, then this time there had to be an external factor influencing her.
