No Way Back By Anna Mac Chapter 136
Chapter 136
Madelyn smiled prettily at Layne.
Layne patted Madelyn’s head and said, “You must be hungry You are looking slightly under the weather
today. Let’s go and eat.”
“Okay”
In actual fact, the reason why Madelyn looked pale was not that she was hungry.
It was because when Madelyn returned to the Fowler family, she realized that the ambiance was
strange.
It was so strange that Madelyn couldn’t put it into words to describe what she was feeling.
It was as if something had happened without Madelyn’s knowing
Dwayne had locked himself up in his room.
Peter seemed to be avoiding Madelyn on purpose.
Henry and Jack went to thepany.
No one knew where Anna went.
The Fowler family had always doted on Madelyn and the house was constantly filled with joy,
happiness, andughter. It was the first time Madelyn felt that the house seemed so deserted and cold.
Madelyn could not feel the warmth that this home had brought to her in the past.
And all of this was because of the ***, Jane, that affected the Fowler family negatively!
If not for Jane, the Fowler family would still be the same as before and showered all of their love on
Madelyn! Madelyn would have be the most enviable princess that everyone had doted on!
Thinking about the evidence that Madelyn had in her hands, Madelyn’s lips curled up into a cold smile.
“Jane Fowler.
“Your days ofcency would notst long.
“Unbeknownst to you, I had begun to slowlyy out a well-thought-out n.
“All for the sake of throwing you into the abyss! You will never be able to make aeback!”
Madelyn thought to herself.
Jane did not know that Layne and Madelyn were downstairs.
Jane led Hugh and the others to the open-air barbecue area on the second floor.
“It’s too lively here. Although the private room has air conditioning, I’m afraid you won’t be able to feel
comfortable with so much smoke in the air.
“It seems pretty good if we were to enjoy the breeze and watch the lively scene of the streets of
downtown while eating barbeque,” Jane said.
Fortunately, it was autumn.
The wind was howling and it was quite cold at night.
If they were to eat spicy barbecue here during summer, it would definitely be torturous.
Lowering his eyes, Hugh spoke gently with a clear and crisp voice, “It’s good that you liked it.”
“Hello, little L. Long time no see.”
Robert took the initiative to greet L.
L’s eyebrows furrowed for a moment upon hearing Robert’s words. “Um… Mr. Shane, could you stop
calling me like how you would greet a child? I feel very embarrassed.”
“No, of course not. I think you’re very cute.”
Robert replied as he patted L’s head.
L was speechless at Robert’s action.
“***!
“Robert’s actions are making me feel even more like a child now!” L thought to herself.
“Alright, the food is here. Let’s dig in. Have some plum juice first. The plum juice in this shop tastes
good too…
“This is the menu. L and I ordered two sets of meat. One set is spicy, and the other is non-spicy. We
were afraid that there might be someone who couldn’t eat spicy food.
“There’s a lot of other side dishes to choose from too. Take a look and see what you want to eat. Scan
the QR code on this counter to ce your order.”
Jane exined to Hugh and the others.
However, Hugh and the others stared at Jane in confusion.
L could not resist the urge toin softly, “Don’t tell me that these three big shots don’t know how
to ce an order in a restaurant like this?”
Connor gave a soft cough and replied, “I… I really don’t know how to order. What about you, Robert?”
“I… How could I not know? Just scan the QR code, right?”
Putting on a pretentious front, Robert took his phone and scanned the QR code on the counter.
“Eh? Why is it that nothing is showing?” Robert asked puzzledly.
L leaned over as she said, “Don’t tell me you haven’t authenticated your ount with your real
name? Let me take a look… What the ***! Where did you evene from, outer space? Your WeChat
doesn’t even have a real name authentication! How do you pay with WeChat?”
After a short pause, Robert replied, “I’ve only used cash before.”
He always did in that way.
L was speechless.
She had never imagined Robert’s way of life was so old fashioned,
Connorughed so hard that tears fell from his eyes. Hugging his stomach, Connor mocked, “Haha,
Robert, who asked you to be such a show-off? Look at what’s happening now! You’re such an
embarrassment!”
“***you.”
Robert stomped on Connor’s foot in secret.
Connor was in so much pain that his face flushed red and he gritted his teeth.
L could not help butugh softly.
The fight between Robert and Connor was just too… unexpected for L.
Robert and Connor could be said that they were people favored by the heavens and that other ordinary
people could only look up to them.
Even though L’s family owned apany and were one of the well-off families in Stormton City, they
would pale inparison with the Shane Group and Luther Group.
As the future heirs of the two top prestigious families in Stormton City, Robert and Connor were now
squabbling like ordinary people. In addition, they did not even know how to scan a QR code and make
a
payment…
Somehow to L, she felt that Robert and Connor’s behaviors were a cute contrast.
Jane said half-jokingly. “If others were to witness the heirs of the Luther Group and Shane Group eating
at amoner’s open-air barbeque restaurant, this would probably make the headlines. They don’t
even know how to scan the QR code and make payments. They must have been well taken care of by
others since young.”
Hugh nodded in agreement and said, “Yes, the two of them are idiots when ites to living a daily life
just like ordinary folks.”
That being said, it was impossible for such news headlines to appear.
The Luther Group and the Shane Groups’ public rtions department were not to be trifled with.
Such news would be immediately banned on the inte if someone were to post it.
“What about you? Do you know how to do it?” Jane asked.
After a short pause, Hugh replied, “Just a little.”
“Hugh, are you sure that you’re not going to put up a pretense?”
Jane raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Jane had initially thought that for someone like Hugh who was almighty and owns it all, there was
nothing in the world that Hugh did not know.
In the end, Hugh didn’t even bother to put up an act.
“Although I don’t want to embarrass myself in front of the woman I love, I **lying to the woman I love
even more.”
Hugh looked steadily at Jane when he spoke.
Hugh’s eyes were filled with sincerity.
Jane’s red lips curled up slightly. “You’re right. I’ll give you extra points.”
Jane also **people who lied to themselves.
After the incident regarding Henry, Jane decided that she had had enough.
It was then that Layne and Madelyn headed upstairs.
“Little Maddie, this is our table. Although there are private rooms avable, I think you’ll prefer this
open-air kind of environment.”
“Yes! Layne, you really came fully prepared! I’ve long heard that the spicy barbecue here in this
barbecue restaurant is delicious, but I didn’t have the time to visit. Fortunately, Layne brought me here
today to try it out!”
Madelyn replied with a smile.
Suddenly, Madelyn seemed to have caught something from the corner of her eye.
Madelyn could not help but freeze from shock.
Jane…
Jane Fowler?
For a moment, Madelyn thought that she was seeing things.
“Why would Jane be here at the restaurant?” Madelyn wondered.
Layne followed Madelyn’s gaze and his eyes suddenly dimmed.
Damn it.
Layne did not expect to see Jane, that pestering ***, here at the restaurant.
Could it be that Jane was actually a stalker who had been following Layne around?
Otherwise, why did Layne feel that Jane was appearing wherever he went ever since he had just
returned to the country for a few days?
Be it the Nightshade Bar or Granny’s Spicy Barbecue Restaurant.
In addition, why did that man who was sitting directly opposite Jane, have such a familiar silhouette?
From Layne’s point of view, Hugh and the others were back-facing Layne.
Due to their tall stature and build, Layne could not make out their faces.N?velDrama.Org content rights.
L was the first to spot Madelyn.
L’s face instantly darkened at the sight of Madelyn.
Secretly tugging at Jane’s hand, L said, “Janie, it’s that angelic ***. Damn it, why did I have to bump.
into Madelyn here? She’s revolving.”
