No Way Back (Jane and Hugh) by Anna Mac novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388

“Alright, I’m going to look for Yale. I don’t want him to worry. Hugh, go play by yourself first.”

Hugh pursed his lips. “If he in worried, so be it. You are an adurt. You won’t go missing…

Hugh still didn’t like the fact that Jane cared about other men.

Hugh wanted to occupy Jane’s heart and wanted Jane to only care about him.

“Hugh, don’t be willful. Anyway, we’ve made a deal. The rest of our life is so long. I have many, many opportunities to slowly look at you.”

“Alright..”

Hugh would try to put down his overbearing temper and accept the things and people around Jane in a more tolerant manner.

It felt very difficult. It was as if to change Hugh’s deep-rooted personality.

But Hugh would work hard to do it for Jane.

At this ****, Peter happened to come up to take a breather.

After all, Peter had just graduated and had not officially participated in the company’s running and management.

In such a high-end banquet, Peter really had to be careful when talking to those cunning old men in the business world who had long been trained not to show their emotions. It was like walking on thin ice, very dangerous.

Peter was afraid that if he said something wrong and did not realize the meaning behind their words, it would bring unnecessary trouble to Jack.

“So, this’s what Henry has experienced back then… I’m really too inexperienced.

“In the past, I always wanted to accept Henry’s protection at ease and pursue my dreams.

“I’m really too selfish. Jane was right.”

Peter laughed at himself.

Peter had always wanted to help the family, but in the end, he had always been silently protected by the family

Peter already felt suffocated just by accompanying Jack to attend such a gathering for A-list celebrities.

From this, it could be seen how much pressure and expectations Henry had to bear as the eldest son in the family.

However, Henry had never said these words to his younger brothers.

Henry had always protected them with the image of the eldest brother, who could handle anything and remain calm in any situation.

In the Fowler family, it was not as competitive as in other wealthy families. They would not fight with each other just for the position of chairman of Fowler Corporation.

So, Peter now deeply felt that he did not just owe Jane.

Unknowingly, Peter had owed too many people.

It was rare for Peter to want to get a cigarette to smoke.

Otherwise, Peter would not be able to vent the frustration in his heart.

When Peter wanted to light a cigarette, from the corner of his eye, he seemed to have caught sight of two figures.

Then, Peter’s pupils constricted.

These two people…

One of them could not be seen clearly in the darkness.

The other figure could not be forgotten even if Peter died.

It was Jane.

The two of them looked like they didn’t bear to part away.

Peter immediately thought of it

Was that man Hugh?

Did their ominous premonition come true?

Just as Peter was thinking. Jane and Hugh had been separated.

The first to walk toward Peter was Hugh

When Hugh saw Peter, he narrowed his eyes and revealed a dangerous aura.

Just the dark aura that exuded from Hugh’s body as that of a king descending into another world by force could already make Peter feel suffocated

“I know Jane would never forgive the Fowler family. But it doesn’t matter. The Fowler family has made too many wrong things against Jane. So, in this matter, we cannot be wrong again…”

Bang!

Peter had yet to finish speaking and a punch already landed on his face.

Peter was caught off guard and was punched to the ground by Hugh.

Peter lost a tooth and spat out a ***of blood.

Because this punch came too suddenly and too forcefully, Peter even felt that half of his face was numb.

Hugh lowered his eyes, his gaze as cold as the moonlight.

“If it weren’t for Jane, because of what you said just now, I might have already turned you into a corpse that would never speak again.

“Usually, I don’t care about trash like you at all. Also, I don’t need trash like you to teach me what to do!”

Hugh’s tone was cold and emotionless.

Hugh was as if just telling Peter about a natural law that was like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west.

Such an impudent tone showed that Hugh did not take Peter seriously at all.

As long as Hugh wanted, he could destroy the entire Fowler family as well as Fowler Corporation easily.

Of course, Peter did not doubt that Hugh had such an ability.

In just a short exchange, Peter had already submitted and didn’t dare to move.

Hugh straightened his suit and stepped on the back of Peter’s hand.

Ignoring Peter’s screams, Hugh left.

Peter was left alone on the ground like a homeless dog.

It took Peter a long time to regain some strength. Then, he stood up shakily.

Fear of Hugh down to his bone arose in Peter’s heart.
