Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Chapter 580: Hayden Returns to X Bureau



Natalie's expression gradually turned solemn, and a hint of anger gathered in her eyes. "Given your personality, even if you got your hands on this document, you wouldn't show it to Dad and your brothers. So, you wouldn't really ask whether Dad compiled this information or not."

"Yes, Rachel knows me well; we grew up together. She knows I would never reveal this matter, so clearly, she prepared this document intentionally for me!" Natalie agreed with Angela's thoughts, "Dad and the brothers, including myself, all know your true identity. Compiling this document is utterly pointless. They've hidden it from you for so long, why would they suddenly make it just for you to find?"

"But there's still no evidence. It seems Rachel's problem isn't small." Angela bit her lower lip slightly. "There's also Tina's paternity test report, showing no biological relationship. Alina, Tina is your biological daughter, right?" Natalie nodded, "Yes, she's my only precious daughter."

Seeing this, Angela chuckled, "I've seen the photos; the child looks a lot like you, a very beautiful girl." Natalie, somewhat helpless, yet unable to hide her proud smile, replied, "She's very smart, smart enough to have driven me to seek refuge with you."

Her daughter was indeed remarkable, able to track down her whereabouts as long as she suspected she was still alive. At that moment, Angela suddenly remembered, "Alina, those notes that told me to hide, were they from you?" Natalie nodded, "Yes, it was me. Tina is looking for you, but I fear it's too dangerous for you to return to the Brookes family now, so it's better to stay hidden for the time being."

Angela agreed with Natalie's idea. Rachel was currently in Ashbury, and her underlying motives were still unclear. Returning recklessly was not only dangerous for herself but might also endanger Tina. Rachel surely knew that Tina was the Brookes family's granddaughter and would definitely try to prevent her from returning to the Brookes family.

Regardless of whether it was mere speculation, they couldn't proceed rashly. "Alina, let's investigate the truth about the past together. I also want to find Five Poisons and bring him to justice!" Angela said determinedly to Natalie. Even though she was the biological daughter of Five Poisons, this did not mean she condoned her father's actions. Angela would never accept those heinous deeds! Mentioning Five Poisons, Natalie's eyes darkened slightly, "It's still unknown whether he is alive or not. The new Five Poisons is a woman, which is also curious to me."

Natalie knew well from her undercover days in GTO that the boss was a man. But now, why had it changed to a woman?

Ten days later.

Hayden returned to X Bureau, still serving as the captain of the third squad. Nathan punched him hard, "You dead dog, I thought I'd never see you again." Jason also came up and threw a couple of punches, "Stinky dog, you scared us to death." Courtney, expressionless, set off a smoke bomb, indifferently saying, "Welcome back, Husky!"

Hayden glanced at the scattered firework debris, "Courtney, you might as well have written 'reluctant' on your face!" Jared also came over, and everyone promptly lined up. Hayden stepped forward and saluted Jared, "Deputy Director, Third Squad Captain Hayden, codename Husky, officially reporting back!"

Jared looked at Hayden and then swung a punch at his shoulder, saying, "Serena told me to give you a scare and fulfill one of your wishes. So, what do you want?"

Hayden burst into laughter, "Can I change my nickname? Even a German Shepherd would be cooler than a Husky."

"You'd want to be called a Border Collie, but you don't have the brains for it," Nathan commented weakly.

Hayden snickered, "Who cares! This is the wish Serena promised me, and the deputy director has to fulfill it."

Jared scratched his head, "Tina was just joking. Alright, regroup and prepare. We have a team training this afternoon. Husky, you're going to make up for a month's worth of training intensity!" "What? That's... not very sportsmanlike!" Hayden shouted at Jared's retreating figure.

All members of the X Bureau burst into laughter, confirming that only Jared could handle Huskies so well.

Just then, the door to Linden's office opened, and all the team members instantly shut their mouths and busied themselves as if the previous laughter had never happened.

Hayden's relaxed expression instantly froze.

He had nearly lost his life, and Linden was undoubtedly the main culprit.

Linden approached Hayden, "You're back. Rest well at home these days; I'm giving you some time off."

"No need for your concerns, Director," Hayden replied coldly, showing no smile to his nemesis.

Linden knew Hayden wouldn't show him any warmth. He intended to pat Hayden's shoulder but Hayden dodged, leaving Linden to awkwardly rub his hands in the air, "It was the Brookes family who rescued you. Take advantage of the holiday to visit them and express your thanks."

"I know," Hayden said before turning to leave.

Nathan, Jason, and Courtney ignored Linden as well.

No one would be loyal to a leader who could betray his own men.

In a place like the X Bureau, where it was literally a matter of life and death, this was especially true.

Jared coldly watched everything from the deputy director's office, his computer screen displaying an email that had been returned.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

It was one of many requests Jared had made to investigate Linden strictly.

Jared had sent out no less than ten requests, but each was returned without reason.

It seemed that the people protecting Linden behind the scenes were exceptionally powerful.

Jared closed the blinds.

If he wanted to completely eliminate the traitor within the X Bureau, his current position was simply not sufficient!

That evening, Nathan drove Jared and Hayden to the Brookes family's villa.

Hayden had bought many gifts for Grandpa Brookes, as this time it was not only his own life that had been saved, but the man was also Serena's grandfather; naturally, he intended to show generous gratitude. "This Brookes family is really something, buying such a huge villa," Hayden couldn't help but remark.

Nathan glanced at him sideways, "As if your family's villas are any fewer." Hayden chuckled, "This driver, stop showing your disdain for the wealthy."

Saying this, Hayden got out of the car with the gifts, followed by Jared.

Nathan muttered a curse under his breath and parked the car, following them inside.

Tina was already by Grandpa Brookes's side and introduced them as they approached, "Grandpa, the serious-looking one is Nathan, Uncle's assistant, and the less serious one, that's my little brother." Grandpa Brookes chuckled a few times, "Hmm, he really does remind me a bit of your Uncle Brandon."

At this, Hayden knelt down abruptly, "Grandpa, thank you for saving my life."
