No Way Back

Chapter 231

They started having their meal, surrounded by an awkward atmosphere.

Jane ate happily as if nothing had happened.

It was as if she did not notice that she had caused this strange mood in the air.

She ordered the most expensive alcohol and meat.

“Miss Jane Fowler, are you saying I’m your fan, but you won’t give me special treatment because of that?”

“Ha!”

Ford finished the rest of his drink in one gulp.
