No Way Back

Chapter 54

Jane and Andy chatted and drank for half an hour.

One could hear their laughter from time to time.

Obviously, they did not care about the presence of Hugh at all.

Connor and Robert felt bad for Hugh.

It was true that they were both here to watch what was going to happen.

However, they could not help but notice how resentful Hugh was at this instant.

Now, the fun of watching the show was gone. Instead, they started worrying for Hugh.

Andy looked around subtly.

He then turned to tell Jane that he wanted to go to the toilet.

He stood up and left.

Seeing this, Hugh fell silent for a ***and followed Andy.

When he passed by Jane, Jane could not help but ask, “Where are you. going?”

“I’m going to the toilet.”

Of course, Hugh was extremely patient when it came to Jane.

Jane fell silent after hearing his response.

She obviously did not believe what he said.

She replied, “No, you look like you’re going to beat someone up.”

Therefore, there were two men walking into the male toilet in the Nightshade Bar.

Hugh walked in after Andy.

He saw Andy leaning against the wall.

Andy crossed his arms and stared at Hugh with his jade-green eyes.

Andy first said, “Mr. Croft, I can’t believe we’re meeting each other again so soon. What a coincidence!”

Hugh replied with a poker face, “No, actually I came here to look for you.”

“Hmm… I could feel it. When I’m drinking with Janie, I could feel being watched over from afar which makes me very uncomfortable.”

He added, “Especially when we were laughing happily when I talked to Janie about some funny things. Mr. Croft, your gaze seems to be going to poke a few **********holes in my body. It feels so scary.”

Andy said these words so naturally as if he was saying something casual. Strangely, one might even find him to be very charming.

No wonder he was called a vampire who always used his beauty to win over people in court.

Hugh said, “Well, I won’t deny it.”

Apparently, he was never afraid of showing his intention.

The reason was that he was considered the king of the business world in Stormton City.

He definitely would openly admit to his desire.

“Hmm… Looks like you like Janie too,” Andy said.

He added, “Of course, who wouldn’t like a beautiful girl like Janie, right? I like her too… I want to make her mine.”

Andy deliberately dragged out the word.

As expected.

He instantly felt strong killing intent from the man standing in front of him. That was intense.

It was so intense that he could feel his adrenaline rushing.

Andy then continued, “But… Janie had rejected me, saying that she could only be my good friend for life.”

“Sigh… What a pity. I didn’t expect that I could not get the girl that I want. This would surely be one of my greatest regrets in this life.”

“Of course “Hugh replied.

Hugh said coldly, “Because she belongs to me.”

It was obvious that he was very possessive.

At this ****, Hugh finally showed his power as the president as well as the dictatorial emperor of the D.Y. Group.

Andy shrugged and asked, “But why do you look for me? You should confess to Janie directly will do. I think that sounds like something you will do.”

Hugh answered, “I myself have Type Omega blood. I know the personality of people with this blood type. Moreover, I’ve interacted with Janie. I know she’s exactly just like me. She’s ***and doesn’t like to be restrained.” “That’s why I know that if I were to force her, it will only have the opposite effect on Janie. It wasn’t easy for me to meet someone like Janie. I have all the patience to wait for her. But I wouldn’t allow anyone else to get in my way!”

Upon hearing that, Andy said, “You’re right. Well, you already knew that I’m just friends with Janie. Please stop staring at me like you want to kill me when I talk to Janie in the future. You really ruined my mood.”

At that, Hugh answered, “Hmm… I’ll try my best not to.”

Hugh couldn’t promise Andy.

After all, it was understandable for him to worry about a man like Andy. Especially when he saw Jane talking to other men so happily.

Hugh felt envious in his heart.

This was a feeling that Hugh had never felt before.

This was the first time he felt this way because of a woman.

He knew that it was not because them having the same Type Omega blood.

Instead, it was something else.

It was because he liked her.

Indeed, he loved her.

If not for the fact that he was afraid of scaring Jane off, he would have done a lot of things.

There was no way for him to let a man like Andy approach Jane.

Okay, Mr. Croft. I got you,” Andy replied.

Andy washed his hands and walked out of the washroom.

He stopped and stood at the door before leaving

He turned and said to Hugh, “Mr. Croft, being a business partner who worked with you a few times, I hope you don’t mind me giving you some advice.”

He paused for a while and continued, “To like someone is an option but to love someone is never one. If you love someone, you would want nobody else but that person.”

“If you don’t plan to pursue Janie with that on your mind, you wouldn’t even be qualified to leave an impression on Janie.”

Jane was a girl who knew how to protect herself.

It did not matter if it was friendship, kinship, or love.

She would no longer take risks easily and throw herself into a situation where she would be easily injured.

With that, Andy left.

Hugh was left standing there alone.

He was still thinking about Andy’s words.

Jane had been waiting for a long time and was a little nervous.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

She knew that Hugh and Andy must have bumped into each other in the toilet.

Even though Hugh looked aggressive, she thought that they would not go. overboard since they both knew each other.

However, she was waiting for quite some time.

She figured it was better for her to take a look.

At the thought of it, she stood up.

Robert and Connor also stood up.

Obviously, they were thinking about the same thing.

At this ***, they saw someone coming back.

Andy returned and waved at Jane.

Andy said, “Janie, I’m sorry for making you wait.”

Seeing that Andy was fine, Jane secretly heaved a sigh of relief. “Why were you gone for so long? Are you alright?”

Andy said, “I just went to the toilet. How can anything bad happen? Alright,

we should make a move. Let’s go.”

“Huh?” Jane was puzzled.

Andy dragged Jane without any explanation.

Connor and Robert were left dumbfounded too.

Seeing that Andy was fine, both of them supposed that Hugh did not get

into a fight with Andy in the toilet.

Andy was back. They wondered why wasn’t Hugh back yet.

Robert and Connor could not directly ask Andy about this matter.

They quickly ran to the toilet to look for Hugh.

When they reached the washroom, they realized that Hugh was still standing there, deep in thought.

With that, Connor and Robert heaved a sigh of relief.

“Hey, Hugh, what are you doing here? Are you thinking about life?” they asked.

“Did Andy say something to you?”

Connor spoke first.

Hearing that, Hugh came back to his senses. As usual, he was

expressionless as he replied, “Nothing.”

Connor added, “Huh… I was really afraid that you guys would start fighting

in the washroom.”

“By the way, your sweetheart and Andy have already left. What are you doing here?”

He could not even finish his sentence.

Hugh had already furrowed his eyebrows.

He immediately rushed out of the washroom.

He then arrived at the entrance of the bar.

However, he could not see Jane and Andy.

They had left long ago.

“This guy…”

Hugh narrowed his eyes, exuding a dangerous aura.

Even Connor and Robert, who were chasing after him, did not dare to approach him. They hid far away from Hugh.

Connor said, “From what we saw, Hugh was probably tricked by Andy”

“As expected of a first-class lawyer. This is the first time I’ve seen someone who can trick Hugh,” Robert added.

“That’s all because of Jane. If it was anyone else, he would not have gotten tricked. You know how smart he is usually.”

Connor and Robert were busy watching the show.

In fact, they were having so much fun.

They were indeed enjoying, watching Hugh being in such a situation.

It was such a rare thing to see.

It was like once in a blue moon for them to see Hugh being tricked like this!

In fact, Hugh was the one who always toyed with others.

Indeed, the tables have turned this round.

Of course, it would be a huge loss if they did not watch him being tricked.

Sure, they were afraid that Hugh would take his revenge.

Otherwise, they really wanted to take out their phone to record this ****.

It would definitely be very interesting to show the recording to Hugh on hist birthday in the future!

Apparently, Hugh had no time to care about Connor and Robert.

He muttered softly, “Jane.”

He thought of what Andy told him, “To like someone is an option but to love someone is never one.”

Andy wanted to remind himself that.

He was asking himself that question too.

Seemingly, the answer was obvious.

On the other side, Jane sent Andy back to the hotel.

Andy asked, “Janie, aren’t you coming to spend some time with me?”

At that, Jane said, “No, it’s too late. I’m going home.”

She had no classes tomorrow.

Jane wanted to be a ******bum and sleep a little longer.

“Okay, the court date will be decided soon. I’ll inform you then,” Andy said.

“You’re my host. You should bring me to take a tour around Stormton City when you’re free to pay me back,” Andy replied.

“Of course!” Jane replied.

Only then did Andy leave reluctantly.

After that, the driver ***Jane home.

Jane took out her phone.

She clicked on Hugh’s profile picture on WeChat.

She was hesitating if she should send a message to Hugh.

After all, the two of them had known each other and seemed to have to rely on each other in the future.

Otherwise, they would not be able to escape the side effects of Type Omega blood.

Because Jane was suddenly pulled away by Andy. She felt a little

inappropriate for her to leave without saying goodbye to Hugh.

After all, Hugh even sent Jane such delicious food that was suitable for people with Type Omega blood.

Jane was really contemplating.

That was when her phone vibrated.

Jane was so frightened that she almost dropped her phone.

She saw the screen.

It was a message from Hugh.

She was shocked suddenly.

She thought there was some kind of telepathy between the two of them.

Hugh sent her a message.

[My heart beats for you. You’re irreplaceable.]

Jane was clueless.

She thought to herself, “What the ***was that?”

She certainly did not get what he meant.

Hugh then replied. [Help me to tell Andy. This… is my reply.]

Jane helplessly replied, [Hmm… Sure, I’ll pass on the message. Andy suddenly wants to go back to the hotel because of some emergency matter. I didn’t see you just now. So I left without telling you. Sorry!]

Hugh then replied to her with a smiling face sticker.

Jane was speechless as she saw that.

Somehow, she felt something was wrong.

It seemed to her that Hugh sounded strange.

She reckoned Hugh was definitely hiding something important from her.
