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.

This had nothing to do with him, but he had butted in nonetheless.

However, only Larry would dare say something like that.

It was because he was an outsider.

Nobody from the Fowler family would have dared say that in front of Jack after knowing that he had wronged Jane.

Jack’s face turned dark immediately.

What had Peter meant by that?

“Dad, in the future, please don’t bother Jane again,” Peter said.

“If you do, it’ll only increase our guilt toward her.”

Everyone stared at Peter in surprise…

Especially Madelyn and Dwayne.

Peter had changed.

In the past, Peter would have never said a word about feeling guilty toward

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.
