No Way Back (Jane and Hugh) by Anna Mac novel Chapter 417

Chapter 417
Johan did not dodge in time. His face contorted in pain as he knelt on the ground.
However, he was still holding on to Jane’s arm firmly.
“Let go of Jane!”
Shaun could not take it anymore. He grabbed Johan and gave him a hard punch.
Shaun needed an outlet to vent his anger.
He found it difficult to put up with the shamelessness of the Fowler family. After getting punched by Shaun, Johan instantly lost sensation in his face.
However, he still held on to Jane’s arm tightly without letting go.
Shaun tried to get Johan to let go of Jane by pulling his hand away.
However, Johan was shockingly strong.
“*********it! You’re really asking for a beating! Don’t mistake my reluctance to do that as weakness!”
Shaun punched Johan’s face again and again.
Johan’s face was beaten to a pulp. Blood flowed from the corners of his ****and the area around his eyes was bruised.
Yet, he still had the strength to grab Jane’s arm.
Johan did not dodge Shaun’s punches or attack him back.
It was as if Johan would lose his life if he let go of Jane’s hand.
No matter what kind of attacks he *********, he refused to retreat.
To Johan, he had too much at stake to release his grip on Jane.
“You…”
Shaun was really defeated.
He thought to himself, “I can’t possibly beat Johan to death, can I?”
“This guy doesn’t seem to be afraid of pain.”
Shaun had not used all of his strength while punching Johan earlier.
However, Johan had tanked all of his blows with his bare face.
As an actor, Johan should treasure his looks more than anything else.
Why was he not afraid at all?
Jane narrowed her eyes. There was a murderous aura to her. “Johan Fowler, do you really want to ***? Do you think that I’m too afraid to beat you to death?”
Right now, they were in public. Jane could not afford to really take Johan’s death, it would invite too much trouble.
However, Jane had many ways to secretly ****Johan.
Jane thought to herself, “Does Johan really think he can take advantage of me just because
I’m not retaliating?”
Unfortunately, Johan was the person who owed her the most from their past lives. His decision to trust Madelyn without hesitation at the last moment had doomed Jane to ***in a sea of fire.
If he went too far, Jane would not have a problem ***Johan.
Johan’s right eye had turned purple and swollen. He could not open it and could only look at Jane with his left eye. “No, Jane, I don’t doubt you… but… my intuition tells me that if I let go, there’s no turning back.”
His fingers tightened around Jane’s arm bit by bit.
Johan only knew that he could not let go.
No matter what.
“There’s no turning back? You’re so full of yourself! We reached that point a long time ago!”
“No matter what you say, I can’t forgive the Fowler family. If you’re here to beg me to visit Aaron in the hospital, I’d advise you to save your breath. Aaron is nothing like Anna, who has the personality of a ***********and can easily hide behind the mask of her insanity.”
“If I say anything nasty to Aaron, he’ll definitely feel even more desolate. If that happens, what do you think are the chances of Aaron recovering? He might just end up jumping off a building and committing suicide from his psychological trauma. When that comes, the only way you’ll be able to see him is through photos!”
Jane’s words were cold and heartless.
They were like a sharp knife slashing at Johan’s determination.
Johan was in so much emotional pain.
He did not know what he was still holding on to. In his entire life, he had never been in such a sorry state.
Even though Johan’s appearance was being severely impacted by the beating and his career was in danger, he found himself unable to let go.
Jane’s questions made Johan feel suffocated.
However, his grip did not relax at all.
Johan wondered to himself, “Why exactly am I doing this?”
A familiar memory came back.
Johan recalled the dream he had last night.
The memory of the dream in which he had been surrounded by a thick fog was making a comeback, and he was about to find out what happened in the parallel world.
The suffering belonged not only to Jane, but also the Fowlers.
At this moment, Johan seemed to understand the reason behind his perseverance.
He could not stop the outcome of the dream from happening.
He also could not stop Jane from leaving.
Johan thought to himself, “In that case…”
“I should also be a little selfish.”
“I must find a way to redeem myself.”
“If I want to end this nightmare, I must confront the final truth in the dream.”
“Jane… Do you still remember that when we first met, I told you that I had a long and strange dream?”
“At that time, you told me that you didn’t know what I was thinking about, but my intuition tells me. You know everything behind it, and that is the reason behind your hatred for the Fowler family, as well as why you want to cut ties with all of us!”
Johan needed to figure out this mystery.
Otherwise, he would never be able to redeem his family, or salvage their relationship with,
Jane.
Jane still looked cold and unmoved. “Johan, I already said that I don’t know what you’re talking about. Are you losing your mind? Why are you using a dream as an excuse? You’re so funny!”
Johan gradually let go of Jane’s arm.
“Jane, I finally understand. The dream that I kept having is not a curse. It was the heavens blessing me with the power to save the Fowler family!”
“This… is something that only I can do.”
Jane looked at Johan’s resolute gaze.
She knew that he seemed to have sensed something.
According to Johan’s description, those dreams were related to Jane’s previous life.
After all, Johan had said that in his dream, Jane had ***in a sea of fire.
That was indeed how the miserable Jane met her demise in her previous life.
Johan had not gone through revival, but he seemed to possess a mysterious power.
The truths of what happened in Jane’s previous life and in the parallel universe were able to manifest in Johan’s dreams, allowing him to learn the truth about how Jane had ****in a sea of fire.
Even Signy highly approved of Johan’s talent to be a medium.
If this was still the same Jane from the past, she would have thought that Johan was crazy.
After being reborn, Jane became convinced that there were indeed some powers in this world that ordinary humans did not know about.
After all, there were too many things that could not be scientifically proven on this earth.
Jane was not very interested about what happened to the Fowler family after her death in her previous life.
She only cared about waking up after her rebirth and living blissfully.
She thought to herself, “Johan, whatever you said can’t be used as a bargaining chip to
threaten me.”
“Shaun, let’s go.”
Jane turned around and left without hesitation.
Shaun wanted to kick Johan a few more times, but when he saw Johan’s face in such a state, he knew that the road to recovery would be a long one. Believing that he had already taught Johan a good lesson, Shaun spat at him and gave him a fierce warning, “Johan Fowler! Don’t bother Jane again in the future! Otherwise, I’ll beat you up every time I see you! I mean what I said.”
After saying that, Shaun quickly caught up with Jane. “Jane, wait for me!”
“Jane! When I find out the truth, I’ll come to you again!”
“Also, I hope this proves my determination.”
Johan took out his car keys.
Shaun and Jane had no idea what Johan was trying to say.
Johan used the sharp end of the car key to slash his face.
