No Way Back (Jane and Hugh) by Anna Mac novel Chapter 163

Chapter 163
“Normal? Yes… it’s quite normal.”
Jane’s lips curled into a cold smile.
She looked at her so-called ‘brothers’ on the stage.
There was not even the slightest ripple of emotions in her eyes.
Actually, there was.
It was just bone-chilling cold.
Jane’s hatred for Aaron and Quinton was indeed not as deep as it was towards Jack.
Because Jane had just returned to the family, these two brothers really wanted to accept Jane from the bottom of their hearts.
Back then, she was so immersed in the Fowler family’s kinship that she was blinded. She thought that she could win her parents’ and brothers’ attention through her sincerity.
After all, they were related by blood!
However…
When a ray of sunlight shone into a dark comer, but could not completely get rid of it….
Even this sunlight was tainted with sin.
Just like Anna, the way they treated Jane nicely caused her to be entangled with the family to the point where it became a disaster.
The prerequisite for treating Jane well was that when Madelyn wasn’t there.
Wherever Madelyn was, as long as it was related to Madelyn, Jane would be pushed back and ignored,
Madelyn was the most important sister in Aaron and Quinton’s eyes.
On the other hand, Jane was just a dispensable substitute.
Just like this freshman welcome party.
Madelyn was always the center of attention.
As for Jane, she would always come last.
In her previous life, Jane thought about her family’s teachings.
She was told not to argue with Madelyn.
That was because Madelyn was younger and adopted. She was sensitive and fragile.
Because of Jane’s appearance, it made things worse.
Madelyn still welcomed Jane back to the family with a sincere and kind attitude. On various occasions, she even stood up for Jane.
That was why Jane was considered lucky to be able to receive occasional care from Aaron and Quinton.
Jane was told not to think about things that did not belong to her in the first place.
Madelyn spent 18 years in the Folower family.
Even if they were not related by blood, the time they spent together could not be erased.
It was true that Jane and the Fowler family were related by blood, but after losing so many years of interaction, their relationship was inevitably distant.
Therefore, Jane had no choice but to endure time and time again.
As a result, Madelyn started bullying her even more than before.
Gradually, Aaron and Quinton, who originally wanted to treat Jane well, started to distance themselves. They looked down on her and suspected the things she had done.
In this life, Jane no longer cared.
It did not matter who Aaron or Quinton wanted to dote on. They could do whatever they wanted.
Did they really think that Jane would be a dispensable substitute?
What a joke
Jane decided not to play this game anymore!
“Let’s go. Lila.”
Jane put her hands in her pockets, turned around, and left the auditorium.
“Hm? Janie?”
Lila was stunned.
She felt that Jane was acting a little strange.
However…
No matter what, Lila was Jane’s best friend.
She could sense something was off.
Aaron and Quinton were a little different from the other ****of the Fowler family
Jane would never forgive them.
It was impossible for them to return to the past.
Hence…
Lila obediently followed Jane.
The song ended.
Madelyn watched the live broadcast.
She bit her lip lightly.
Her eyes flickered.
Madelyn had also guessed it.
Aaron and Quinton probably did know that Jane had cut ties with Fowler family and caused an irreconcilable mess. Initially, back then when Anna said that she wanted to bring Jane back, Aaron and Quinton were supportive of the idea.
In their hearts, even though Jane had disappeared for nineteen years and that they were not close, she was still their biological sister.
Originally, Madelyn was worried that in Jane would replace her place in Aaron and Quinton’s hearts. She was afraid that they would treasure Jane more than herself.
But now…
Madelyn thought to herself, “Jane, do you think that you’re better than me in everything, that you could beat me? Are you proud of yourself?”
“Forget about taking away what’s mine for the rest of your life!”
“Even if you cry and knelt on the ground, no matter how envious you are, you won’t have it!”
“You will never get the family members’ attention and love!”
“As long as I’m around, the Fowlers will all focus on me! It will always be me!”
“Not you, someone who’s related by blood but has nothing to do with the family. You will only hurt the family!”
On the other hand, Peter was different from Madelyn…
He was just wondering why Jane did not return backstage.
If that’s the case, where did she go?
Was it because Madelyn and Peter were here?
He wondered if Jane heard the piano piece that Aaron and Quiton had specifically composed for her.
Would she feel warmth in her heart and recall the kinship with everyone in the family?
He hoped that she would understand that it was impossible to completely sever the bloodline relationship between the family.
She was a member of the Fowler family and their biological sister!
If he could, Peter was willing to kneel in front of Jane.
As long as she would be willing to forgive him.
All he wanted was for Jane to forgive him and return to the family.
He was willing to do anything she wanted.
Little did he know…
Aaron and Quinton had the same performance in their previous lives.
Once again, Jane’s heart sank. The expression on her face was as cold as ice.
Jane and Lila were thinking of leaving the university.
At this moment…
A figure appeared in front of them, blocking their way.
When she saw that person’s face clearly, Lila blurted out
“Mr. Narcissist, what are you doing here?”
Layne was shocked.
What the ****?
What did she mean by ‘Mr. Narcissist?”
He was not a narcissist.
Was she really addicted to calling her that?
Originally, Layne had been standing outside the University of Oricle’s assembly hall.
Firstly, it was for Madelyn.
Secondly, it was for Jane.
At the same time, he was busy dealing with company matters and he wanted to fulfill his promise to Aaron and Quinton.
He found various excuses to tell his family not to come to the University of Oricle.
He hoped that Jane would go home with Aaron so that they could give the family a huge surprise!
Layne could not enter the assembly hall.
However, he was able to watch the live broadcast. Judging by the reaction inside the assembly hall, it sounded like things went well.
It was just that…
He did not expect Madelyn to ***up the performance.
How embarrassing.
It affected his impression of Madelyn a little.
On the other hand, Jane, who was wearing a red evening gown, had an outstanding speech. She was graceful and eye-catching.
Layne actually felt his heart beat a little faster.
He thought of roping in Jane to remove the evidence.
At the same time.
Layne wanted to prove that his manly charm was more than Marion and even Hugh!
It was his possessiveness instincts that fueled his desire to conquer and fight.
Now, Layne was more concerned about Jane.
He wanted to snatch Jane from Marlon and Hugh Coft.
He wanted to prove his capabilities!
After having such a desire, he thought of Jane’s face.
It seemed like…
Jane’s skin was fairer and more delicate than Madelyn’s.
He wondered what it would feel like to touch it.
Layne knew that the person he loved the most was Madalvo
After all, he had known her for many years. It was impossible for him to forget the “first love” buried in his heart.
In Layne’s heart, Madelyn was always number one.
His feelings for Jane were casual.
Still…
Layne no longer resisted the idea of being in a secret relationship with Jane.
