No Way Back

Chapter 235

Fowler

Jane had abandoned the Fowler family.

But she was not alone

Back then, she knew that her Teacher was still living in some part of the world.

Gradually…

At last, Jane had found her senior brothers. They meant the world to her.

From then onward, on New Year, the first day after the New Year, and every holiday….

Jane would never have to worry about how to spend them.

She would only want to spend them with her true family.

At Harbor City…

Jane had just left the airport.

Immediately, she saw Clarence waving at her.

Jane folded her arms and smiled. “Mr. York, why did you come to pick me up personally?”

Besides…

He was wearing casual pants, a short-sleeved shirt, and military shoes.

Wasn’t he cold?

“Am I not allowed to? It’s New Year’s Day tomorrow. The base is closed on account of the holiday. I’m the only workaholic who can’t put my job down.”

After spending so much time with Jane, Clarence was no longer as reserved as before. He was getting used to talking to the youngsters.

He had long regarded Jane as her granddaughter.

“Did Tristin not come?”

Jane was a little surprised. Logically speaking, it was unlikely that a dutiful person like Tristin, a professional fighter, would disappear without a trace during the holidays.

“Something happened to his sister. She’s in the hospital. I gave him an early break so he could spend time with her. He said he wanted to protect Mr. Mitchell to complete the lithography machine, and the country’s mission was the most important. It wasn’t easy for me to wait until the New Year’s break came along. I chased him off right away. Some people…. They shouldn’t think that just giving money is enough. They don’t realize how precious something is until it’s gone. Alright, let’s not talk about these. Let’s go.”

Clarence put on his sunglasses.

He had slicked-back hair. He wore a black short-sleeved shirt with a skull printed on it and a large gold chain.

He looked freaking fashionable.

He did not look like a retiree in his sixties at all.

He looked more like he was in his early forties.

Who would have thought Clarence was a general who had received countless national medals?

They arrived at No. 7 Scientific Research Organization Base.

“Yale!”

Seeing Yale Jane flung herself at him happily.

Yale was wearing a white lab coat for research purposes. It was rare for him to wear black-rimmed glasses. He lowered his eyes and gently hugged Jane. He patted Jane’s head.
