No Way Back

Chapter 229

Robert reckoned that if others knew what he was thinking now, they would think he was crazy like the current Hugh. “Ahhh! I really want to see the chat history between Hugh and Jane! What exactly did Jane say to make Hugh so excited that he had to go to the washroom to relieve himself…” Connor said with a pitiful face.

“Connor, if Hugh hears your words, I’m afraid you will be doomed! I can’t take care of you at that time!” Robert warned

Connor.

Robert was so done with Connor

Connor kept provoking others and caused many troubles.

After that, Robert had to help him to clean up his mess!

“I only dare to say that because Hugh isn’t here. Robert, I’m not crazy. I wouldn’t dare to say that if Hugh was here. I still want to live!”

Connor pinched his own neck.

“But… Do you really think that Hugh is trying to relieve himself in the washroom?”

Robert actually considered this possibility seriously.

He then looked at Connor.

Fuck. Both of them wanted to go to the washroom and took a peek.

They could not imagine an upright man like Hugh would go to the toilet to do such a thing!

It really stimulated their curiosity! They really wanted to see what happened in the washroom!

Jane and Lila arrived at the barbecue restaurant.

They entered the reserved table and saw that it was filled with people.

Jane took a deep breath.

“Hmm… Just thinking about it makes me feel that it’s delicious. The spicy fragrance in the air is amazing!”

There was a saying that one could tell if a restaurant had delicious food judging from the number of customers in it.

This newly opened barbecue restaurant was overcrowded.

Fortunately, the space was not small.

The placement of the table was also thoughtful.

It did not make people feel the space was too small.

Hugh once said that people with Type Omega blood were not able to taste delicious food one day.

They could only eat black lacquer substances developed by science and technology.

Hence, Jane had to eat a ton of delicacies while she still could taste them.

She sat down with Lila.

After ordering, Lila looked at Jane and hesitated to speak.

“Lila, just say what you want to say. We’re good friends, right? Why are you so shy? This isn’t like you.”

Jane saw through Lila at a glance.

Lila was silent for a moment before she said with a smile, “Cough, cough. Janie, I wanted to say aren’t you going to praise me? I found such a nice barbecue restaurant with delicious food.”

“Lila, the dishes haven’t even been served, and you already want me to praise you? Com on. If you have something to say. just say it. If you don’t, I’ll stroke your hair and make you bald!”

Jane rubbed Lila’s head hard.

Lila did not reply immediately.

She pouted and looked around.

Only then did she speak carefully.

“Um… Janie, are you really dating Mr. Croft?”

Jane had already guessed Lila would ask her this question…

Hugh had sent messages to Jane just now, and Lila saw them all.

There was nothing to hide from Lila.

“Dating not really But we like each other. We might be together.”

“Janie, my comprehension ability is poor. Can you be more detailed?”

“We’re more than friends and not really lovers yet. But we’re close enough.”

Jane was also very confused.

After going through so much, It would be a lie to say that she did not have feelings for Hugh.

Jane was not a slut. If she was not attracted to Hugh, she would not kiss Hugh on Christmas night.

However, if they wanted to be together, there were too many things to consider.

On the other hand, Hugh liked Jane very much.

Jane had to make up her mind quickly.

Jane could not keep Hugh waiting and be the kind of shameless woman she hated, right?

“I see.

Janie, I might be worrying too much, but I think a top-notch wealthy family like the Croft family is too complicated.

“I hope you can think carefully before you make a decision. Once you become Mr. Croft’s wife, there’s no turning back.”

Hugh was a faithful person, and he would never let Jane go.

Lila was worried that their love would hurt each other.

No one wanted to see such a tragic ending.

“Don’t worry, Lila. I’ll take care of it.

*Also, why did I need advice from an innocent college student like you who has never even been in a relationship?”

“Why don’t you find a man to date before guiding me?” Jane said sarcastically.

“Janie! You’re so mean! You’re bullying me again!”

At this moment, a group of people entered the barbecue restaurant.

The person in the front was wearing sunglasses and a suit that cost a fortune.

On his wrist was a 75 thousand dollars Rolex Cosmograph Daytona.

When the manager saw who it was, he greeted the person respectfully. “Boss.”

“I’ll bring my cousin over for dinner. Make a seat for us.”

Ford took off his sunglasses and stuffed them into his pocket. He then called out to the man behind him, who was still staring at his phone. “Marlon, come in quickly.”

“Okay…”

After sending the’message, Marlon the phone back into his pocket.

Actually, he secretly sent a message to his parents.

Because Ford was Michael’s son.

Marlon was quite unlucky.

There was a power outage at his home.

They even ran out of fuel and could not use a generator to generate electricity.

Marlon could not live without the internet.

Marquise and the others were not free today.

Hence, Marlon could only come out alone and find a cafe to play with his phone.

He thought there would be electricity at home when he went back.

However, he bumped into Ford.

Ford brought Marlon to his new barbecue restaurant for dinner.

Marlon could only brace himself and followed Ford.

Marlon kept a distance from Michael’s family.

Michael was a cunning old fox who raised a sly little fox, Ford.

He was the last person Marlon wanted to provoke..

Then, Marlon suddenly saw someone.

“Q… Jane, why are you here?!”

He ran over happily.

Jane and Lila were eating their spicy barbecue.

Seeing Marlon, Jane was also surprised. “Marlon? Why are you here?”

Marlon explained, “My cousin owns this barbecue restaurant. I haven’t had dinner yet, so e brought me here to eat.”

Lord also walked over.

“Marlon, are they your friend? Hmm… Miss, have we met somewhere before?”

Ford stared at Jane.

The greedy look in his eyes made Jane a little unhappy. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

At the same time, Jane had already dug out information about Ford in her brain.

She knew that he was Hugh’s uncle, Michael’s eldest son.

“Oh, I remember now. You were the world champion who caused an uproar on the internet and brought glory to the country, Jane Fowler.

“I also like the paintings you created in the girl forum. I’m a fan of yours.

“It’s an honor to meet you here, Miss Jane Fowler.”

Ford extended his hand to Jane.
