Chapter 380: Mr. Kim, Don’t You Know Where They Went?
Everyone looked up to see Tina walking in slowly, dressed simply in a T-shirt and jeans. Her delicate face still
wore that cold expression. Juliet looked at her, feeling a mix of emotions. After a moment, she spoke, "No need,
I'll handle it myself." She didn't know how to feel about Tina. After all, her work being affected wasn't Tina's fault,
but she still felt uneasy. Was it fair to blTina? No, it wasn't. Her grandmother had indeed killed ten people,
and their families had been searching for the truth for twenty years. Her grandmother deserved the outcshe
got. But Juliet couldn't face Tina. Since Tina's return, everyone close to her had changed.
Tina walked up to her, looking serious. "Grandma Reed's death was her responsibility. If she hadn't resisted
arrest, she wouldn't have been shot in front of you. Your online exposure wasn't caused by me. | paid your
penalty as a favor because you were the only one who treatedgenuinely well when | cto the Reed
family." When Tina was first brought back to the Reed family, everyone seemed kind, but their kindness was
tainted with ulterior motives. Only Juliet was sincerely good to her. She couldn't ignore someone who truly cared
for her, even if this situation had something to do with her. The outcwasn't her doing. She could help Juliet
but would never feel guilty about it.
Juliet stared blankly at Tina, not knowing what to say. Since Tina's return, she had spoken very little, always
using the fewest words possible. But today, she said so much.
Tina turned to Muff and said calmly, "Muff, I'm here to pack my things. | won't be staying here anymore." Muff
looked at her and snorted, "What? Running away because the Reed family is in trouble? I'm still alive and won't
let my granddaughter be left out in the cold." He sighed and softened his tone, "This has nothing to do with you.
Even if you weren't involved with Jared, | wouldn't have let her go unpunished. This case has been investigated
by Grandpa Farrell andfor many years. If we had found out first, the Reed family might be in an even worse

Tina raised an eyebrow in surprise.
"Just stay here peacefully; you don't need to worry about anything else," Muff said firmly. "We were discussing
how the Reed family should move forward; you should listen too since you're almost twenty and it's tyou
learned about the company."
Tina smiled slightly, "I don't mind where | live as long as you're willing to see me."
Muff glared at her, "Do you think everyone | raised is unreasonable?" He glanced at Garrett and the others.
Garrett looked a bit embarrassed; he didn't blTina but was initially shocked by what happened before him.
Now he understood better. The old lady carried ten lives on her shoulders; death was inevitable for her. Tina and
Jared just brought it into the open.
Muff's gaze fell on Jasper, who remained silent with a stern face.
Tina said no more and sat next to Juliet.
Muff continued, "Juliet, since Tina has paid your penalty fee, whether you stay in the entertainment industry is
up to you." They didn't question how Tina had so much money; being Natalie's daughter meant she couldn't be
short of funds. That black card alone held a lot of money. Plus, with Farrell family backing and Logan doting on
Tina, they wouldn't care about such a small amount.
Juliet nodded, "Okay."
Muff then arranged stasks before getting to the main point: "Annabelle is part of the Reed family; we can't
shirk responsibility for her mistakes. I'll issue an apology statement and provide compensation for the victims’
families. Additionally, we need to push forward with new projects like robotics development; Paula will join our
team. Each of you has your role; we must recover our losses as quickly as possible." Hearing this, Tina raised an
eyebrow in surprise again.
She always thought Jasper was the one capable of turning things around for the Reed family but didn't expect it
to be Muff. The old man spent so much tin nursing homes that she didn't know him well and often saw him
overshadowed by Logan.
For the Reed family to recover from this scandal required new projects; getting Paula on board was unexpected
since Paula belonged to a hidden family that Ashbury usually avoided interacting with.

"I'm tired now; I'll go rest while you handle the rest," Muff said before heading upstairs.
Garrett and others went off to handle their assigned tasks while Juliet left due to a call from her agent.
For a moment, only Jasper and Tina remained in the main hall.
Jasper glanced at Tina and said in a deep voice, "Cupstairs; we need to talk."
Tina smiled slightly, "Perfect! | wanted to talk too."

Jasper gave her a look before heading upstairs.
In his room, Tina sat down casually on a chair like a rogue and asked, "What do you want to talk about?"
Jasper looked at her silently for a long tbefore slowly saying, "Your adoptive parents haven't visited
recently?"
"Missing them?" Tina smirked.
"They are guests after all; it's been a while since they visited," Jasper tried to soften his tone.
Tina tapped the armrest rhythmically with one hand while smiling deeper, "Are you referring to Callum Maguire
and Snow Judd disguised as my parents or my real parents?" "What?" Jasper was stunned as a flash of realization
crossed his eyes.
"Mr. Reed doesn't know? Those two at Reed family are impostors," Tina continued smiling chillingly.
Before Jasper could respond, Tina added slowly, "Actually 'Mr. Kim" would be more accurate than 'Mr. Reed,’
wouldn't it? You don't know where your own men went after staying at Reed family for so long?" Jasper was
shocked beyond words. "You!"
How did she find out?
He thought he had hidden it well!
Tina shook her head thoughtfully before adding again, "Or maybe 'Mr. Kim's double’ would be even more
precise?"
