No Way Back

Chapter 204

Josh seemed to have expected Jane to send him a message

He had been waiting for a long time.

Jane replied. I like it. I like it so much. Oh, my god. Josh, you’re so amazing I knew it. I knew that I would love your gift. the most’]

Josh said. [You and Yale do have a special connection. I just replied to Yale’s message. I gave him the same Christmas gift I gave you, too]

Jane replied, [Teacher means the world to us. No one can replace him. Even though I could never see him again, after so many years, I still clearly remember his face. Seeing what Teacher looked like when he was young makes me feel like I’ve traveled through time and space. It feels so wonderful ]

Jane held the portrait in her arms.

A warm feeling surged in her heart.

Josh replied with a meme of two people comforting each other. He said, [I’m glad you like it, Jane.]

Jane replied, [I do! Josh, come and visit me tomorrow when you’re free. Let’s go skiing.]

Josh said, [Sure, sure. Of course. Both you and Yale are here. No matter how busy I am, I have to make time and accompany you both.]

After Jane finished putting away Yale’s and Josh’s gifts, she was about to shower and sleep.

She was looking forward to the morning. Tomorrow would be a beautiful day.

But at that moment, her phone vibrated.

Jane thought it might be a message from Yale or Josh.

She unlocked her phone and looked at the message, only to see that it was Hugh.

Hugh texted, [Janie, are you asleep?]

Jane said, [Not yet. I was just about to take a shower. By the way, Merry Christmas. I’ll give you your gift when I get back.]

Hugh replied, [Janie, go to the hotel’s back entrance. There’s a surprise waiting for you.]

Jane was slightly caught by surprise.

After that, she sent him another message.

Hugh did not reply.

In the past, Hugh would have replied to her instantly.

“What is Hugh up to? What is he planning to do?”

Jane glanced at the time.

It was already 11:45 p.m.

Christmas was almost over.

After thinking for a moment, Jane put on a thick down jacket.
