No Way Back

Chapter 35

Peter was so agitated that he coughed violently.

Larry immediately sht his m*uth.

“D*mn it!” Larry cursed himself for not being to hold his tongue. He had spoken too soon.

Jane.

“Peter, you… I saw you lying unconscious. I heard that you had met with Jane earlier and so I was worried that you…”

Jack felt very humiliated to be called out like that by his son.

Thus, he subconsciously started to find reasons to justify his
