Chapter 411
Shaun Luther got out of the driver’s seat and casually threw the key to the valet who was waiting at the reception. He personally opened the door for Jane and Liliana, who were sitting in the back of the car.
“Queen, I heard that Cloudnine Restaurant has a new chef who’s researching French cuisine. It tastes really good, so I brought the both of you here to try the food. I’m so good to you, aren’t I?”
“It’s a pity that Marlon and Marquise weren’t able to join us because something came up at the very last minute. It’s their loss that they won’t be able to taste such delicious food tonight.”
Shaun tried his best to please Jane.
Jane got out of the car and put her hands in her pockets. She raised his eyebrows and looked at Shaun. “Don’t think that just because you’re fawning over me, you’re exempted from my test. The four of you have been training with Mr. Lourd in Rheinsville for so long. You must have learned a lot this time. If you can’t complete the next difficult test that I come up with, you’ll have to bear the consequences.” skills “Oh, my dear Queen, I’m not afraid of your tests at all. Now that I’ve been honing my with you and so many other prominent figures, I feel like I’ve reached a higher level! I’m only being so attentive because of my admiration for you.”
Shaun rubbed his hands, looking aggrieved. He looked at Jane bitterly.
He thought to himself, “Hmph, you ****. You don’t understand my feelings at all. How could you accuse me of deliberately trying to curry favor in order to avoid being tested? How heartbreaking!”
“Looks like you’re full of confidence this time. Very good. If you don’t complete the next test, Shaun Luther, I’ll make you run two miles around the base, fully nude.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Shuan instantly felt like he had been struck by a bolt. of lightning. His brain felt charred and he could not think.
Liliana held Jane’s arm and said with a smile, “Hahaha! Queen, this is a good suggestion!”
Shaun looked like he wanted to cry but he had no tears. “Um… You don’t have to go so far, do you? You’re not going to deliberately come up with difficult questions in order to test me and see me make a *****out of myself, right?”
Although Shaun was very confident in his current strength, he had also made a solemn vow in front of Jane earlier.
If he failed the next test, he would have to run around the base in a fully nude state.
As the young and handsome heir of the Luther family, Shaun knew that he would definitely attract the attention of paparazzi and news of him running ****around the base would break the internet.
If that happened, not only would Shaun feel completely humiliated, he was sure that his family members would strangle him to death.
“No, the questions for the four of you are the same as before. I treat everyone equally.”
Shaun patted his chest. “Phew. That’s good. Queen, I’m already ***prepared. Feel free to come up with the questions!”
The group chatted and laughed as they entered the elevator and arrived at the top floor, where Cloudnine Restaurant was.
When the receptionist saw Shaun Luther, he immediately bowed respectfully. “Mr. Luther, the table you want has been reserved for you. It’s Table 21 in Zone C. May I know if you would like the food to be served now?”
“Of course. I’m starving.”
Jane and the others had just arrived at their table. They were about to take their seats.
Suddenly, the sound of glass hitting the ground and shattering into pieces was heard.
It was defeaning.
“Jane… Jane! Why are you here?!”
A voice drifted over.
Jane turned around mechanically and saw Madelyn standing behind her in surprise.
Jane was speechless.
She thought to herself, “Should I have checked my horoscope predictions before leaving the house today?”
“How could something so unlucky happen to me?”
She had encountered Madelyn twice in a row.
The first time was at the teahouse.
The second time was at Cloudnine Restaurant.
Jane thought to herself, “Oh my God!”
“If Madelyn is here, does that mean the rest of the Fowler family is also here?”
“What happened?”
Upon hearing the sound of glass shattering, Jack felt the obligation to come and check on Madelyn no matter how reluctant he was. He needed to see if she had gotten herself into any kind of trouble.
Jack’s eyes widened when he saw Jane. “It’s you… Jane…”
Jane wanted to facepalm.
Speak of the devil indeed.
Her worst fear had come true.
Shaun knew that the complicated relationship between Jane and the Fowlers was not something he could interfere with. At this ***, he could only stand by Jane’s side with a cold expression, and serve as her pillar of support.
It was as though he was saying that as long as Jane wanted it, he would pounce forward. and fight the other party to death.
“Uncle Jack…”
Liliana did not expect to meet the Fowlers here.
She thought to herself, “What a coincidence.”
“This is really an ill-fated relationship.”
“It must be so awkward for Jane.”
“Liliana, you’re here too?”
At this ***, Jack’s gaze changed.
Liliana, who was part of the Fowler family and also Jane’s cousin, was standing closely beside her.
They looked more like sisters than cousins.
Jack thought to himself, “It seems that Jane isn’t denying her bloodline.”
“After all, she’s on good terms with Liliana, who is also a Fowler.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“The only people that Jane are denying are her biological parents who gave her life and her brothers, who share her blood too.”
“Still…”
“It’s my fault that things became what they are today.”
No one could blame Jane for the state of things. The Fowlers could only blame themselves for their *******in the past.
Jack looked at Jane and the rest with a complicated gaze. When he noticed the coldness in Jane’s eyes and recalled the humiliation from that night, he silently turned his head. “Let’s go back.”
“Dad, but Janie is still here…”
Madelyn acted as if she had not expected Jack’s behavior.
In fact, her mind was racing as she secretly rejoiced.
Jack’s behavior must mean that he had completely given up on rekindling his relationship with Jane.
If that was the case, it was impossible for Jane to return to the Fowler family no matter how much guilt they felt toward her.
Jack opened his ***and was about to say something.
“Don’t ruin my appetite. You ******people should go back to Zone B, where you’re seated.”
Jane’s ****words were like sharp knives stabbing Jack’s heart.
“Shaun, Liliana, let’s ignore them and go to our table.”
“Okay…”
Seeing this, Liliana could only sigh softly.
Even though Liliana was part of the Fowler family, she felt extremely awkward at this
****.
Liliana could not isolate herself from her Uncle Jack’s family because she was his biological niece and he had pampered her since she was young.
But she still chose to unwaveringly support Jane’s decision.
It wasn’t just because Jane was the person who had changed her life completely and been the light in the darkness.
The key reason was that it was indeed the Fowler family that had hurt Jane so much in the past. They had hurt her too much, and even Liliana felt that Uncle Jack’s family had gone too far.
Now that Jack regretted his actions, he could only ask for forgiveness. However, it was up to Jane whether she wanted to forgive him or not. No one could interfere in this decision.
“Daddy…”
Madelyn gazed at Jack with pain.
Jack did not respond. He just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
The more Jack sensed Jane’s indifference toward him and his family, the more his heart ached. He felt like he could barely breathe.
The joy he felt coming to Cloudnine Restaurant to eat with his family had disappeared without a trace.
Right now, Jack only wanted to escape from the space where Jane existed. He also did not want the rest of his family to see Jane here.
And yet.
Jack’s worst fears had come true.
“Jack… Are you… Jane Fowler?!”
