No Way Back (Jane and Hugh) by Anna Mac novel Chapter 187

Chapter 187
As she said this, Jane looked steadily at Marcus as if she was trying to find some flaws in Marcus’s expression.
“That’s true. I haven’t introduced myself properly yet. If we want to be friends, it isn’t enough only I knew your name, Miss Jane Fowler.
“Marcus is actually my stage name. My real name is Josh Mitchell”
Marcus’s surname was actually Mitchell!
Jane’s breathing was suddenly a little chaotic.
Could it be that this special feeling….
“Mr. Mitchell, I want to ask you if you once have a very powerful teacher…”
From his looks, Josh should be in his twenties, older than Jane.
Jane couldn’t guess what age the teacher at when he took Josh in as the apprentice if Josh was really Jane’s senior brother.
So, Jane could only ask like this.
Josh raised his eyebrows. “Well, I do have a powerful teacher, and he is the one who gave me this name.”
Jane suddenly slammed the table and jumped up.
Even Jay was shocked.
Jane could not be bothered to apologize and said excitedly. “You are really my senior brother?”
Josh pursed his lips. “Do you have a teacher surnamed Mitchell?”
“Yes! The eldest senior brother and I are his apprentices! Marcus, you…”
“Ahem, my relationship with the teacher might be a little complicated. He’s my uncle in terms of seniority.
“We’re relatives. Mitchell is my real surname, and my name was given by my uncle.
“Uncle left when he was in his thirties. I haven’t seen him much since, and I don’t know where he went.
“I heard from the elders that Uncle traveled around the world and accepted many talented orphans as apprentices.
“I’ve also received Uncle’s teachings before. Strictly speaking, I can be considered your senior brother.”
Marcus was the teacher’s relative!
Jane never expected this.
The legendary Marcus was actually related to the teacher by blood.
This wonderful fate was really impossible to guard against.
Then, Jane was overjoyed.
This meant that Jane could learn more about the teacher
“Then, Josh, I want to ask you for more information about the teacher…”
“I’m sorry, Jane. Even I don’t know much about Uncle. After all, I was still young when Uncle left the Mitchell family.
“As for the details, only my parents know it. Unfortunately, they are no longer in this world.
“My father ***of ****two years ago. My mother and my father loved each other all their lives and couldn’t accept this ********. A month later, she ***too.
The only one who you can contact among the Mitchell family now is me, Josh Mitchell, who was given birth by my parents late. Many of my relatives have disappeared.”
Josh smiled bitterly.
“I’m sorry, Josh. I didn’t mean to bring up your sad matters.”
“It’s fine. I’ve already walked out of the past. The Mitchell family is a very strange family. Ever since I became a little older, my parents rarely contacted my relatives.
“Even, only when Uncle took the initiative to visit, did I know that he is my relative. I can feel that Uncle is unfathomable.”
Next, Josh chatted with Jane about the news he knew about the teacher.
This time, Jane finally knew the teacher’s real name, Humphrey Mitchell!
Humphrey Mitchell was the teacher’s real name.
“Humphrey Mitchell… Humphrey Mitchell…
Jane repeated this name again and again, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Unable to hold back her tears any longer, Jane wiped them away casually with the back of her hand.
Josh very considerately handed over a handkerchief. “Jane, are you alright?”
“Yes! I’m fine! This is the first time I know the teacher’s real name!”
Jane took the handkerchief to wipe her tears and smiled at Josh. “The teacher is too much. Why does he keep disappearing? Does he know how worried I am?”
“This is just a rumor I’ve heard. The Mitchell family is estranged from each other due to the teachings left behind by
our ancestors.
“Generally speaking, if one inherits the Mitchell family’s bloodline and displays a talent that completely surpasses their peers, it’s very likely that one will obtain a fate as a jinx.
“Only the strong could change such a fate. Among them, the impacts Uncle causes are the most fatal. Even my grandparents ***because of Uncle.
“My father said that Uncle is the most outstanding genius in the history of the Mitchell family, and no one can compare to him in the Mitchell family”
The teacher was a jinx?
Jane thought of the times when she saw the teacher observing stars, measuring the future, and studying astrology. It turned out that the teacher really knew these things….
Jane still remembered that the teacher had read Jane’s fortune a month before he disappeared,
The teacher said that Jane had Type Omega blood and her fate was extremely hard, which was related deeply to the Crape Myrtle Star.
Even if a person with such a magical fate **because of a major mistake, they might be able to turn danger into safety. They would not be destined to ***easily and turn something bleak into something magical.
The teacher reminded Jane to be careful. This calamity was blood-red in color. If Jane did not pass this stage, it was very likely that Jane would ***.
The teacher did not say much about the details. If the teacher said too much, he would have violated some kind of taboo, and even an extraordinary person like the teacher would not be able to escape from the fatal troubles involved
in it.
It was better to believe in astrology than not. Sometimes, it was terrifyingly effective.
Jane remembered the teacher’s words in her heart back them.
However, Jane did not expect the person who took her life would be her blood-related family.
Jane humiliated herself so much because of her desire for the love of the Fowler family. In the end, Jane failed into a fire and ***without a burial place.
Fortunately, God gave Jane a chance to be reborn and change everything.
The teacher’s prophecy was never wrong.
“Could it be that the teacher left the apprentices and never appeared again because he was worried that his fate would hurt us if he spent too much time with us?”
Josh nodded.
“It’s very likely. Before Grandpa **, he knew that very few people could change Uncle’s fate, so he ordered Uncle to be expelled from the Mitchell family
“Even if Uncle wants to see his younger siblings, he can only visit them once a year.
“Uncle used to come to our home once a year until one time, my father got into a car accident and was sent to the intensive care unit with his life and death unknown. At that time, Uncle happened to be at our home.
“Uncle seemed to have realized something. He packed his things and left immediately. Not long after, my father recovered and left the intensive care unit, and he gradually became better”
Jane lowered her eyes. “So, the teacher didn’t leave us because he had but to protect us from being harmed by his
fate.”
Fortunately, at the very least, the teacher did not provoke an enemy that even he could not defeat.
In order to protect these apprentices, the teacher had to disappear and wander everywhere
“Uncle is a very gentle person. Even though my memory is already blurry, I can still remember the feeling of his broad hands stroking my head.
“Oh, right, Jane, when it comes to fate, it’s not just between you and me.
“Coincidentally, two months ago, I also met one of Uncle’s apprentices, and we have known the real identity of each
other!”
