No Way Back

Chapter 158

Only freshmen could attend the freshmen welcome party held by the University of Oricle.

The sophomores, juniors, and seniors could only watch the broadcast together with the graduating. students, graduates, and doctors.

They could also head outside the assembly hall to bask in the atmosphere if they wanted to.

The assembly hall had already been set up a day in advance, so the staff and student union members were maintaining order at the moment.

There were also delegates who voluntarily went on stage to practice their speeches.

Jane came to the assembly hall after she was notified.

She was confident that she could do her speech well. But with her personality, she had to do her best since she had decided to do it.

Hence, she decided to practice her speech once,

Coincidentally, Peter was on stage giving a speech while Madelyn watched from below the stage.

Peter was a senior and would graduate after finishing his studies this year.

He was the most outstanding student in the whole University of Oricle before Jane overshadowed him with her brilliance.

The school also generously gave Peter a chance to speak on stage.

Of course, there was also the intention of currying favor with Fowler Corporation.

With Peter’s original career plan, he planned to enter a famous university overseas to further his studies.

At the same time, he had already passed the international language test and successfully obtained the offer.

Seeing Peter on stage, Jane turned around and left.

Peter saw her and instantly stopped his speech.

He hesitated for a moment. But in the end, he mustered up his courage.

“Maddie, you stay here. I suddenly have something on. I have to go out for a while.”

“What? Peter, we’re still in the middle of rehearsal…”

Without any explanation, Peter jumped off the podium and chased after Jane.

Madelyn naturally saw everything.

She clenched her fists tightly as her nails dug into her flesh. It hurts! But her heart hurts more!

‘Why Peter… Jane was so ***towards you. Why do you keep caring for her?

“You even distanced yourself from me for Jane Fowler! Did she brainwash you?”

It was gradually turning from autumn into winter.

Jane stuffed her hands into the pockets of her windbreaker and exhaled.

A bail of ****mist condensed in the air.

It was already reaching ten degrees.

The coldest temperature in Stormton City had reached three degrees before dawn.

After living for so long, she had never seen it snow in Stormton City.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps.

Peter did not shout Jane’s name.

Instead, he went straight to Jane.

Jane looked at Peter coldly and did not speak.

Just like the coldness in the air, it made one’s skin turn cold.

It made his heart turn cold.

Peter took a deep breath and mustered his courage,

“Jane, I’ve already decided… to study abroad. To grow stronger and to better fulfill my dream!”

Jane was perplexed.

So… What does this have to do with her?

Was Peter out of his mind? Did he not know that she had already cut ties with the Fowler family?

Things have already reached this state. Why was Peter so shamelessly speaking such ****to her?

“Jane, I admit that I’m not as good as you. But… I’ll become better.

“The reason why I stopped you was to say these words. I’m sorry for disturbing you.”

After saying that, Peter left.

He did not stop Jane again.

Peter knew that he had acted like a ***just now.

He could feel it from Jane’s gaze.

She had probably already treated him as a ***.

Whatever. He could not be any worse in Jane’s heart.

He did not care about his image.

Peter just wanted to tell Jane what he was thinking.

In the future, anyone who mentioned Peter Fowler would not think of him as Jane’s failure of a brother again!

Peter would do his best! He would become a brother who would not embarrass Jane!

What was he afraid of? It was already in the past!

Jane was speechless.

It was rare that she looked at the back of the leaving Peter.

She thought selfishly, ‘Could it be that her rebirth had caused many things to change subtly?’

For example, the conceited Peter had actually become a servile **.

Was he ****unstable after the blows she gave him?

However, this was none of her business.

Madelyn was still waiting anxiously in the assembly hall.

She was considering if she should follow along to see what Peter had to say to Jane.

-Would it be too late to follow him now…

If she had known, she would have followed him from the start!

Just as Madelyn was letting her imagination run wild…

Peter returned.

Madelyn looked delighted. “Peter, why did you come back so quickly?”

He had only been there for less than five minutes. Nothing should have happened.

+

“I just did what I should have done. Okay, let’s continue the rehearsal.”

Peter forced a smile.

There was even a hint of undetectable estrangement.

Who was Madelyn?

She immediately noticed Peter’s estrangement.

Madelyn was most sensitive to this kind of feeling.

The smile on her face froze.

Previously, she only felt it intermittently, so she was not sure.

This time, Madelyn no longer had any doubts.

Peter started to distance himself from her because of Jane Fowler!

Just like how he humiliated Jane because of Madelyn back when Jane had just returned to the Fowler family.

Her expression changed quickly.

Madelyn composed herself and did not let Peter see through her.

Deep down, she was about to explode from anger. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Why wasn’t the day of the championship here yet?

If that day does not come, Madelyn will not be able to carry out her perfect plan to embarrass Jane in front of the whole world!

Night gradually descended.

The freshmen entered the assembly hall one after another and found their seats.

The school leaders of the University of Oricle were also there

The lights turned on.

Under the gazes of everyone, Jane slowly walked onto the podium as the representative.

For this speech, Jane intentionally changed into a red evening gown.

With red lipstick on, her hair fell casually on her shoulders. Her slightly raised head revealed her fair and delicate swan neck.

Her skin was as smooth as a peeled egg without makeup, tempting one to reach out and caress it. Under her long eyelashes were a pair of eyes as deep as the ocean. Even when facing everyone’s stares on such an occasion, she remained calm without a ripple.

Her black high-heels stepped on the floor gracefully, and her slender legs were fair under the lights.

A warm round of applause sounded from below.

Jane could be said to be the most popular person in the entire University of Oricle.

Although, she had just as many criticisms as praises.

People who worshipped Jane would praise her till the skies.

They thought of Jane as a rare genius who had surpassed Peter. She had even won the national championship and a lawsuit against Fowler Corporation’s chairman.

People who hated Jane would detest her intensely.

They felt that Jane was hard to get close to and not amicable, that she was a lone wolf and looked down on others because of her talent.

Jane had always been free and unrestrained when handling matters. She did not like to explain to

anyone.

In conclusion, there was one sentence that described her.

“I like seeing the look on your face when you detest me yet can’t get rid of me.”

Jane began her speech.
