Game Over No Second Chances novel Chapter 225

Calvin scolded furiously, "Not only did they lose their child, but you were the one who caused it! You still won't apologize and are here arguing!"

Melissa's arrogance instantly disappeared, and she broke down in tears, sobbing uncontrollably. Calvin was more than frustrated.

Seeing how out of hand the situation had gotten, especially with the Jansen family being Serena's family, he knew his priority now was to settle the matter.

"The Jansen Group's performance has been struggling these past few months," Howard said.

Calvin replied, "We have a few new projects at the Larson Group, and we'd like to entrust them to the Jansen Group."

At these words, Howard's cold expression softened slightly. But Calvin's next words were sharp.

"Regarding today's events, Melissa was certainly in the wrong. But at the root of it all, it's due to your failure as a parent. If you could raise Serena to be such a thoughtful daughter, how could you let Sarah behave so recklessly?

"We can afford compensation. But if you keep indulging Sarah's behavior and it leads to more trouble, even if Serena pleads for you, I'll have to rethink my stance."

Howard gritted his teeth, clearly frustrated.

As expected, Calvin was a seasoned negotiator, handling things with ease. He had offered them some benefits while also making sure to send a clear warning.

In his mind, he cursed Calvin a thousand times, but on the surface, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree. He couldn't afford to clash with the Larson Group.

Seeing that things had calmed down, Calvin cleared his throat several times before hurriedly taking Melissa away.

Before leaving, he remembered to arrange a room for Serena. "Serena's injured too. After her treatment, she should rest and avoid moving around to prevent catching a cold."

"Yes," Robert replied, rushing off to make the arrangements.

Howard's jealousy grew even more.

His most beloved youngest daughter was being scolded and threatened, while Serena, who shared the same family name, was treated like royalty in the Larson family.

Reluctantly, Howard watched as Rachel was wheeled out of the room and escorted back to the ward. He and Sarah followed her, returning to the room to rest.

…

"It's fine."

He hadn't been able to stay with her until dawn last time. However, this time, he was more than willing.

But Serena couldn't help but worry. If this amazing ally wore himself out, she would feel guilty.

After thinking for a moment, she handed him her house key.

"The calico cat's food might be running low, and I don't want anyone else coming into my house."

Hugh glanced at her, sensing she was making an excuse to send him home for rest.

He could feel the exhaustion of the day weighing on him, and his clothes were dirtied from his work. When he saw Serena staring at him, he felt oddly self-conscious, worried she might notice the bloodstains and dirt on him, which would be embarrassing.

Still, he took the key from her.

He said, "I'll leave two bodyguards here. If you need anything, just tell them."
