No Way Back by Anna Mac

What happened to the cold and calm president who always had a poker face?

H.F. sent a message. [Master, you really agreed to meet up? Why is it that all of sudden…]

Queen replied. [It’s just that I’ve gone through a lot recently and finally figured it out. It’s

not a big deal to meet a trustworthy apprentice whom I’ve known for three years. After all,

you’re the only apprentice whom I’ve taken in. We’re both in Stormton City too. This must

be fate arranged by the heavens.]

When Jane sent the message, the corners of her mouth curled up into a faint smile

Queen sent a message. [And little apprentice, I had never conducted any investigation

regarding your true identity. One week later when I am going to meet up with you for the

first time, I hope that I am able to recognize you at first glance among the crowd. Let’s see

if our master and

apprentice relationship is up to the test. Hehe |

This was Jane’s respect for HF

With Jane’s capabilities, it was very easy for her to find out HFs true identity

After all, Jane was the Darknet’s number one hacker.

There were very few things in this world that Jane couldn’t find out

Of course, that would exclude people like Hugh Croft who are special and different from the

others.

However, it was because HF was his disciple that Jane chose to respect him.

On the Darknet one’s situation would become very dangerous if one’s identity was exposed.

Even though there’s no way that Jane would want to bring any harm to H.F

It was precisely because Jane did not want to expose her traces.

At the same time, Jane would protect H.F. and will not let his identity be revealed.

Every time when Jane erased her traces and concealed her identity, Jane would also do the

same for HF too.

It was something that Jane would not encroach on, even though she was H.Fs Master.

It was also one of the points that Jane had often warned HF about.

As a hacker, one must not let others know one’s true identity!

This time, Jane had really let it go when she agreed to meet up with H.F

Perhaps it would be the same as meeting up with Andy.

If Jane were to meet with H.F., Jane thought that she might be able to make friends with

him. One whom Jane finds worthy of being her lifelong friend

Jane could not help but look forward to it.

Jane had known her apprentice for more than three years. From HF’s character and way of

doing things, Jane knew that HF was trustworthy. Hopefully, H.F. would not disappoint Jane

H.F. sent a message. [Master, thank you… For trusting me and agreeing to meet up with me

]

H.F. sent another message. I assure you… You won’t regret your decision! I will be the most

trustworthy apprentice in the world! No exceptions’]

Queen replied. [Then I’ll wait and see! Alright, I still have something on, so I will go offline

now. Let’s meet again in a week’s time] H.F. replied. [Yes!]

Henry could not help but jump up and down as he was as happy as a lark.

Standing at the president’s office which was on the fiftieth floor of the Fowler Corporation,

the dazzling night view of Stormton City could be clearly seen from the floor-to-ceiling

windows.

However, that did not attract Henry’s attention.

Henry was scrolling through the chat history between him and his Master and was

repeatedly rereading their conversation.

The smile on Henry’s face widened, and he had been smiling ever since he saw the

message from Queen,

Henry’s bad mood that was brought about by that ****Jane earlier today had also

disappeared.

It was completely replaced by happiness, excitement, and all sorts of happy emotions.

“A week…

“There was only one week left…”

Henry thought to himself. Never in his life had Henry wished that time will go faster!

“Faster!

“Why can’t I just skip the next seven days, and transcend to seven days later?

“To the day that I will finally meet Master. I’ve yearned to meet Queen, my idol.

“That day would definitely be a bright and sunny day, where all the flowers will bloom.

“The flowers will be in full bloom

“The air will be filled with fragrance.” Henry couldn’t help but think to himself,

Even the autumn wind will be playing a symphony of blessings for Henry and Queen.

Henry and Queen would meet just like how the prince and princess would in the fairy tales!

Then, they would accompany each other and spend the rest of their lives together.

Henry did not dare to ask for too much as he was afraid of scaring Queen.

The fanatical admiration and respect that Henry was currently feeling towards Queen filled

Henry’s heart and he felt that he couldn’t release his

emotions!

Henry did not know how he should express his feelings for Queen. “How should I make sure

that Queen would be able to feel my admiration for her during our first meet-up?” Henry

pondered.

This was a question that Henry had to think about for the next seven days

But

If there’s even the slightest chance of “What if…”, Henry would want to grasp that chance

Henry would do everything possible to chase after what he wanted most in his lifet

Even if Henry were to fail in the end, he would have no regrets!

At least Henry had tried!

Besides, Henry was very confident in his capabilities and appearance.

Although Henry was handsome, had never thought that looks were of any importance in the

past.

Henry even despised those people who judged others based on their appearance.

But now, what was in Henry’s mind was how lucky he was to be handsome!

Queen did not know what Henry looked like, or what his true identity was.

On that day, Henry must give Queen a big surprise and leave a strong impression on her so

that Queen would never forget about him for the rest of her life!

Jane left the washroom.

Lila Sutton came looking for Jane.

“Janie, what took you so long? I’ve already finished dancing with Andy and was waiting for

you.”

I’m sorry. I haven’t talked to him for a long time, so I chatted for a while longer.”

“Who? Who’s that on the line that would make you show so much concern? It can’t be Mr.

Croft, am I right?”

Even if Jane did not mention anything. Lila Sutton knew.

There seemed to be a connection between Hugh Croft and Jane.

Moreover, from the way that Hugh Croft looked at Jane, Lila could feel that Hugh Croft cared

about Jane.

Lila Sutton coughed dryly.

Although Hugh Croft was a noble and has an angel-like figure, Lila Sutton still felt that Hugh

Croft was way out of his league if he were to be a couple with Janie!

However, if Janie sincerely chose Hugh Croft to be her boyfriend. Lila Sutton would also send

them her most sincere blessings! “It’s a secret!

“To be honest, I haven’t met him yet. When I meet him and feel that he s someone good, I’ll

introduce him to you,” Jane said with a laugh. “Oh Janie, you’re so mean. You’re keeping us

in suspense again…” Lila pouted.

The next day

Jane and Lila applied for leave and went to see Andy off at the airport.

They then ****back to the University of Oricle to attend their classes.

It was fine for Lila Sutton to take a leave of absence from school. However, that was not the

case for Jane Due to the lawsuit and Andy’s arrival, Jane had taken too many days off from

school as she had also brought Andy around and had fun with him.

Even if Jane had obtained the credits that she had required for Prof. Henderson’s class and

managed to get a perfect score, Jane still had other classes to attend.

Jane had missed too many classes and had to make up for all of them at the end of the

semester. To Jane, that was more tiring for her and not worth her time.

In actual fact, Jane did not need the identity of being a college student

With Jane’s capabilities, she definitely did not need to get a degree as her knowledge was

way beyond what the school was teaching her.

But in the future, if she wanted to continue to develop herself as “Queen” on the Darknet,

she would need a normal identity

A normal identity would help Jane to confuse her enemies and act as a smokescreen to

mask her real identity and safeguard her. For example.

Who would have thought that the famous super hacker “Queen” of the Darknet was just an

ordinary second-year college student in Stormton City in real life?

It was exactly the same for Andy Andy was a very famous mission broker on the Darknet.

However, in reality, Andy was a first-class lawyer in the A.D. Law Firm in Rheinsville.

This was a contrast, a disguise that was used to protect Jane.

Now, Jane was going to take an elective course.

At that time, Jane had randomly applied for a few electives.

The elective course that Jane was heading to now, was a painting class.

When Jane walked into the classroom.

Countless gazes landed on Jane immediately.

Recently, Jane could be said to be the most popular student at the University of Oricle.

As the real daughter of the Fowler family which had just been found after missing for the

past 19 years, Jane had cut off all ties with the Fowler family. In addition, Jane sued Jack and

even went to court….

With all these feats and the fact that Jane was a peerless beauty who was cool and

charismatic, it was difficult for her not to attract attention!

Jane completely ignored everyone’s gaze

Jane found a seat and sat down quietly.

Closing her eyes, Jane rested while she waited for the class to start.

The painting professor Lance arrived at the classroom.

Just when it was time to start the class, Professor Lance happily made an announcement

that there would be a very talented sophomore who would be helping to guide the class

today.

Jane slowly opened her eyes.

Jane saw someone whom she did not expect to see.

Her lips curled into a playful smile.

The person was Madelyn Fowler.
