No Way Back

No Way Back By Anna Mac Chapter 235

Fowler

Jane had abandoned the Fowler family.

But she was not alone

Back then, she knew that her Teacher was still living in some part of the world.

Gradually…

At last, Jane had found her senior brothers. They meant the world to her.

From then onward, on New Year, the first day after the New Year, and every holiday….

Jane would never have to worry about how to spend them.

She would only want to spend them with her true family.

At Harbor City…

Jane had just left the airport.

Immediately, she saw Clarence waving at her.

Jane folded her arms and smiled. “Mr. York, why did you come to pick me up personally?”

Besides…

He was wearing casual pants, a short-sleeved shirt, and military shoes.

Wasn’t he cold?

“Am I not allowed to? It’s New Year’s Day tomorrow. The base is closed on account of the holiday. I’m the only workaholic who can’t put my job down.”

After spending so much time with Jane, Clarence was no longer as reserved as before. He was getting used to talking to the youngsters.

He had long regarded Jane as her granddaughter.

“Did Tristin not come?”

Jane was a little surprised. Logically speaking, it was unlikely that a dutiful person like Tristin, a professional fighter, would disappear without a trace during the holidays.

“Something happened to his sister. She’s in the hospital. I gave him an early break so he could spend time with her. He said he wanted to protect Mr. Mitchell to complete the lithography machine, and the country’s mission was the most important. It wasn’t easy for me to wait until the New Year’s break came along. I chased him off right away. Some people…. They shouldn’t think that just giving money is enough. They don’t realize how precious something is until it’s gone. Alright, let’s not talk about these. Let’s go.”

Clarence put on his sunglasses.

He had slicked-back hair. He wore a black short-sleeved shirt with a skull printed on it and a large gold chain.

He looked freaking fashionable.

He did not look like a retiree in his sixties at all.

He looked more like he was in his early forties.

Who would have thought Clarence was a general who had received countless national medals?

They arrived at No. 7 Scientific Research Organization Base.

“Yale!”

Seeing Yale Jane flung herself at him happily.

Yale was wearing a white lab coat for research purposes. It was rare for him to wear black-rimmed glasses. He lowered his eyes and gently hugged Jane. He patted Jane’s head.

“Alright. Mr. Mitchell, I’ve already sent her to you. It’s time for me to take a break. I’ll leave first.”

Clarence tactfully did not stay behind to be a third wheel. He was going to enjoy the holidays himself.

Quickly, he drove the car back to reunite with his family.

New Year’s Day, the beginning of a new year, was also a day for reunion.

[Thank you, Mr. York.]

Clarence waved and left.

Jane sighed and said, “This base used to be so lively. It has suddenly become so deserted.”

(Some of the researchers did not leave, but all of them had gone to the city.]

He looked at Jane standing before him.

Warmth appeared in the depths of Yale’s cold eyes.

Since he left Teacher’s side, Yale had spent every New Year’s Day alone.

Holidays meant nothing to Yale.

His research was the only thing on his mind.

It was not that Yale enjoyed being obsessed with the research.

But other than that…

Yale had no interest in anything else.

He was like a robot that had been stripped of its emotions. His skills were all he had left.

But right now…

Since he and Jane had recognized each other as family, the warm emotions that had long been stripped from his heart were awakened once more.

“That’s true. New Year’s Day is almost here. It must be so lively in the city. Yale, how is the development of the lithography machine getting along?”

[Soon… I believe it won’t be long before we can publicize it and help the country with its current chip predicament. Of course, Jane, you’ve also helped a lot.]

Yale did not forget Jane, who had cared for him so much. He reached out and patted Jane’s head.

“My, my. How did I even help? Yale, you developed a lithography machine. You’re the most awesome. By the way, Yale, I’ve already hacked into the surveillance camera and saw Eden. Look.”

Jane took out her phone and showed Yale the video she had recorded when she hacked into the surveillance camera.

Even though she could not see Eden in person, she could she him moving about. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Yale looked at it curiously.

With a few glances, he could tell that Eden was indeed one of their Teacher’s apprentices.

People like them, who had been raised by the Teacher, would subconsciously develop some specific habits.

They had learned these habits from their Teacher, Humphrey.

It was like an indelible “mark”.

Except…

Eden did not look as cute as Jane.

Jane was more eye-catching.

Besides…

Now that she had one more brother, Yale felt that Jane’s attention on him was about to lessen even more.

Without his knowing, Yale’s thoughts had strayed.

His eyes rippled slightly. They seemed dormant and dangerous.

Eden did not even know that Yale had targeted him before they even met each other.

“According to Josh, Eden’s medical skills are amazing, and he has a different way of looking at things. He has a wealth of experience treating complicated illnesses we have never heard of. When Eden

comes out of that place, we can ask him to treat you immediately. I sent a message to Josh, but he didn’t reply. I’m so angry. Is he busy?”

Jane did not notice anything amiss with Yale.

She spoke excitedly.

More importantly, she was excited to have another senior brother.

As she found more senior brothers, Jane increasingly felt like this was all a puzzle.

Besides, more people would be “pampering” her.

She felt even happier.

After discussing these matters, Jane planned to bring Yale to watch the New Year’s countdown celebration.

“There’s a New Year’s Eve concert at the Harbor City Tower tonight. It’s quite sensational. Are you interested, Yale? However, there will be too many people. For your safety, we’ll take this route. It won’t be crowded.”

Jane marked tonight’s area of activity on the map.

To spend New Year’s Eve with Yale, Jane spent two days preparing the route and location.

She hacked into all the major surveillance cameras.

[it’s up to you, Jane]

Yale did not object to Jane’s decision.

He wanted to spoil her, after all.

Afterward, Yale and Jane disguised themselves and left the base.

At Harbor City…

“Yale, this is delicious. Try it! It’s grilled meatballs and roast asparagus. There’s grilled seafood, too. They smell so good. This sticky date pudding is not bad, either.”

Along the way, Jane pulled Yale along as they strolled on the bustling streets.

They ate all kinds of food.

Because of the cold weather, eating warm foods felt especially good.

Jane did not feel guilty at all and was not worried about getting pimples.

Yale never ate these things.

It was not because Yale’s health was precious.

It was just that he was not very picky about food.

*

Anything that could be prepared quickly, that did not smell strange and would fill his stomach would do. It would give Yale. more time for his research.

Besides, at the No. 7 Scientific Research Organization Base, someone was in charge of Yale’s three daily meals. Each meal was up to the gold standard of nutrition.

So…

This was Yale’s first time eating these things.

Initially, he seemed a little disdainful.

He thought they looked a little unsanitary.

However, Jane was eating so happily that it was difficult for him to refuse.

He tentatively took a bite off the grilled seafood skewer..

Hmm…

It tasted quite delicious.

He took a few more bites.

It was like a new world had opened up to him. His taste buds were awakened.

Yale could not stop eating once he started.

How could these skewers be so delicious?

Was it because Jane gave it to him?

It must be.

Yale seemed to be eating happily.

Jane’s expression gradually softened.

She had to ask Clarence for permission to spend New Year’s Day with Yale.

Clarence said that only Jane could make Yale feel happy and at ease.

All they could do was provide Yale with everything he needed. They could not interfere with Yale’s inner thoughts and feelings.

They did not want Yale to abandon his career.

They just hoped that Yale could live life more normally.

And Jane was the only one who could do that.

Everyone was enjoying the New Year’s festivities.

Yale should also enjoy it to the fullest.

At that moment…

Jane’s phone rang.

She looked at the screen.

It was Josh.
