Game Over No Second Chances novel Chapter 240

On the shareholders' meeting day, the expansive conference room was packed to capacity.

Serena had just wrapped up her work with Amber Group's project, and she arrived ten minutes early.

At Jansen Group, she only held the title of assistant general manager, so she was seated far down the long table in the lowest-ranking position.

Meanwhile, Zach, the guest of honor, sat right beside Howard.

From across the table, Zach's gaze lingered on Serena. Unable to resist, he spoke up. "Ms. Jansen, since when did you sit at the foot of the table?"

Howard said, "Blame the incompetence of the staff. Since Mr. Foster insists, hurry up and prepare a seat for Serena beside him."

Nathan hurried to comply.

Serena had intended to stay low-key, to listen and leave without drawing attention.

However, she was forced into the seat next to Zach. Her expression turned grim.

Zach said, "I promised you wouldn't be slighted again."

Serena fell silent.

Sitting next to him was the real slight.

She considered snapping back but decided against it. There was no point giving this arrogant man the impression that she still cared.

The meeting officially began.

The early agenda items proceeded without incident as they were just standard reports and proposals. As discussions turned informal, the reality of a family-run corporation became apparent.

Most of Jansen Group's shareholders were relatives, and they spoke with blunt familiarity.

Sarah's uncle, Phil Jansen, who was particularly close to her, suddenly spoke up.

"Serena is our assistant general manager, isn't she? Yet, lately, she's never at headquarters. Instead, she's diverting our resources to Amber Group. This seems like a blatant neglect of duty."

Upon hearing his words, the room fell silent.
