No Way Back

Chapter 421

Chapter 421

Jane didn’t even know what kind of mood she was in when she left Santio Church.

She only remembered listening to Levi plead with her back in the wooden house, and nodding silently at him.

It served as an oath.

Jane could clearly understand his feelings.

In this world, Hugh was the only person who could touch Jane’s heart.

They shared the same kind of Omega blood.

They *********similar misfortune in their life trajectories.

So many unimaginable things had happened to them.

Yet, only they could make each other feel warm and loved.

No one could separate them.

However, Jane felt that her life was still long. She was only 19 years old after her rebirth. After the new year, she was only just a student in her junior year of high school.

Jane did not want to allow the betrayal of the Fowler’s family to cause so much *********in her life. She did not want to lose her happiness and faith in people because of them, or lose the ability to trust anyone.

Moreover, Jane felt that she had obtained true friendship, family and love. She had achieved the career that she failed to have in her previous life. She had already become happier than many people in this world.

It was just that the idea of marriage still carried too much weight.

It was an insanely huge thing for two people to be able to look into each other’s eyes and declare under the watchful gaze of the priest and countless of people, that they would never leave each other for the rest of their lives.

Before meeting Levi, Jane had not been too certain about her future with Hugh. While she did feel that Hugh was a man that she might potentially get married to, there was still some doubt.

Perhaps it was because Jane felt that the two of them were not suitable for marriage. They were only suitable for dating. This was the best and most carefree approach that they could take in order to be responsible towards each other.

But now, Levi had opened up to her, and Jane had never felt so much heartache for anyone the way she felt for Hugh.

This allowed her to grow more aware of her own feelings.

Hugh had been willing to stand by her side, even when the whole world was distrustful of Jane and became her enemy. Even then, Hugh fought everyone for Jane and became her greatest pillar of support.

Now, it was Jane’s turn to make up her mind.

She thought to herself, “Let me be the one to get rid of the darkness that the Croft family had brought upon Hugh.”

From now on, she did not want the man she loved to suffer anymore.

Levi personally escorted Jane to the foot of the mountain. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

At last, Jane turned around and looked at Levi. “Mr. Croft, please give me your contact information. I promise that no one will find out about today’s information. However, I hope that you won’t avoid me when I want to talk to you. I still want to learn so much more about Hugh.”

I

There was a flattered expression on Levi’s face as he nodded repeatedly. “Since Miss Fowler doesn’t mind, of course I’ll be happy to. I’ll be here for you whenever. In any case, I often come to Santio Church when I’m free. When we meet again, let’s drink tea and chat again in the wooden house.”

“Okay.”

Jane ***********her Porsche Cayenne onto the highway.

After navigating through some confusion in her mind, her gaze grew determined.

She twisted the steering wheel and headed straight for D.Y.’s headquarters.

But Jane did not call Hugh/

She wondered if he was currently at D.Y.’s headquarters.

This desire to see Hugh had washed over Jane so suddenly.

At D.Y. headquarters.

Jane got out of the car and walked straight in.

When the receptionist saw Jane, her eyes widened. “Are you Miss Jane Fowler?”

Jane had not attempted to disguise herself or hide her identity.

She knew that her face was the best way to give her valid entry into the company.

After going so much, almost everyone in Stormton City recognized Jane’s face.

Jane said calmly, “I want to see Mr. Croft. Is he in right now?”

“Mr. Croft is in a meeting… But Miss Fowler, I’m sorry, if you want to see Mr. Croft, you have to make an appointment. Today, Mr. Croft’s schedule is already full…”

“I have an appointment.”

Without waiting for the receptionist to finish, Jane interrupted, “The appointment is under my name, Jane Fowler.”

“Huh?”

The receptionist was dumbfounded. Then, she checked the computer.

As it turned out, Jane really did have an appointment.

The receptionist wondered to herself, “Why didn’t I realize this when I arranged his schedule yesterday?”

“Perhaps I was too distracted.”

“I’m sorry, Miss Fowler, I should have remembered. Please take this card, and take the elevator to the 67th floor. Mr. Croft is having a meeting there.”

“Okay.”

Of course, this appointment had been added by Jane herself after hacking into D.Y’s network.

Jane just wanted to see what Hugh was like at work when she was not around.

This time, Jane’s curiosity to learn more about Hugh was at its peak.

After swiping the visitor card, Jane took the elevator to the 67th floor.

When she got out of the elevator, the corridor was quiet.

The smooth marble tiles made the entire walkway look classy and expensive.

Jane vaguely heard some voices in the distance and quietly walked over.

Outside the conference room, through the window, Jane saw the man whom she loved deeply.

Hugh was seated at the head of the table and paying attention to his subordinate’s product presentation. He looked very focused, and his usual smile was missing.

His face was extremely handsome, he almost looked like a Greek god who did not belong in this mortal world. His hair was slicked back neatly, and his black suit hugged his figure perfectly.

His slender fingertips were hooked around the fountain pen in his hands. Whenever he so much as fidgeted, the presenter and other staff in the meeting instantly looked nervous.

In this company and this conference room right now, Hugh was pretty much the king. No one could overthrow his regime. A simple sentence from him was all that it took to cause a huge ripple among even the most influential people in Stormton City.

It was as if Hugh had the power to decide someone’s life and death.

Soon, the presenter had finished his speech with trepidation.

Hugh then began to speak.

His words were cold and direct, pointing out the shortcomings of the product plan. His comments hit the nail on the head. It was breathtaking to watch him.

Only a highly intelligent person could discover so many small flaws in the product immediately after hearing its description.

The product manager broke out in cold sweat and almost fell to his knees. He felt that perhaps there was no hope left for him in this life.

Then, Hugh asked the product manager to reorganize his presentation and overcome the shortcomings of the product that had been raised before the next meeting.

The product manager heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly returned to his seat.

At least the product had not been disqualified. It appeared that he still had a position in D. Y. Group.

The meeting went on for an hour.

When Hugh dismissed the staff, everyone stumbled out of the meeting room as if they had been pardoned by the king himself.

Only Hugh and Life were left in the huge conference room.

Life came forward with a notebook to report to Hugh about on the meeting’s minutes, as well as make some business. decisions.

There were a total of five secretaries working for Hugh. All of them were considered elites in this industry. For instance, Henry had graduated from one of the most prestigious universities in the world. His secretaries all had a wealth of experience and were trained to stay calm in emergency situations. They always took care of Hugh’s affairs in an orderly fashion.

Among the secretaries, Life had the most authority. He was the company’s second-in-command and also the closest to Hugh.

Hugh and Life were often accompanied by each other and seen together at the company.

Hugh straightened his suit and stood up expressionlessly. He took a sip of the Americano that he had prepared specially for himself and took large strides out of the conference room.

The tip of his nose twitched.

As if catching a whiff of something special, Hugh suddenly looked in a certain direction.

He was caught off guard by a light that was bright enough to make everything else melt away.
