No Way Back

Chapter 26

“Professor Henerson, me too,” Lila said.

She rose her hand.

Everyone stared at Jane in surprise.

Her label of being the Fowler family’s long-lost daughter was simply too attention-grabbing.

It was especially so since the first person who had passed the challenge was Jane’s elder brother, Peter Fowler.

This was going to be a good show.

“Jane Fowler,” lan said.

He adjusted his spectacles and looked contemplatively at Jane.

When Jane was in her first year at university, she had the highest grades in class.

Even lan had been impressed by Jane’s talent. He had high hopes for her. When she started her second year, however, something happened.

Jane often took leave from school, and her grades plummeted.

She barely passed.

lan made it a point to speak to Jane to find out what happened.

He was worried about her. lan did not wish to see a talented student like Jane fail the class. He had to try to help.

After that, there was a great commotion in the school chat group.

It was only then that lan learned about Jane finding her birth family.

They were the famous Fowler family of Stormton City.

They claimed Jane was their daughter.

He now knew why Jane had been distracted and often took leave from school. Her grades had also dropped drastically.

lan senses something was wrong with Jane.

She had changed after the Fowler family contacted her.

She became hypersensitive and self-conscious.

She was not happy.

After the incident a few days ago, Jane again took two days off from

school.

lan did not probe into her reasons.

He only said one thing to her.

“I await the return of a better you.” That was what he said.

Jane had replied simply.

She said, “I will be back.”

She did return better.

lan watched the confident and dazzling young woman who was the center of attraction.

He nodded approvingly.

Jane had been true to her words.

She had returned better than before.

In the end, there were only two people who took on the challenge.

They were Lila Sutton and Jane Fowler.
