Game Over No Second Chances novel Chapter 424

Sarah stood radiant in a pure white engagement gown, framed by the opulence of a banquet hall so exclusive it required bookings six months in advance—and a financial background check just to get on the list.

In the backdrop of the photo, several blurry figures mingled—each one a major player in Javerton City's business elite.

The moment she posted her photos, the likes and comments poured in.

"Wishing you and Mr. Cole a lifetime of love and happiness!"

"Sarah, you look stunning! When are you bringing your fiancé out to meet us?"

"I saw you at your prenatal check-up last night—wishing you peace and happiness!"

Her socialite contacts flooded her inbox with digital kisses and flattery, and the cloud that had been hanging over Sarah's mood began to lift.

Just then, Melissa approached, her heels clicking against the marble floor. She took one glance at Sarah, whose fingers were flying across her screen replying to the messages, and her eyes narrowed sharply.

"It's just two engagement parties. You haven't even given Cole a son yet. Don't think that guarantees you a spot in the Larson family."

Sarah turned with a triumphant smile. "Cole has already broken off one engagement with the Arnold family. What, is he going to call it off again—with the Jansen family now?

"Mrs. Larson, aren't you worried about what people will say if he keeps backing out? Gossip like that sticks."

She paused, and her voice turned syrupy as she added, "Anyway, now that everyone in Javerton City knows we're engaged, calling you 'Mrs. Larson' feels a little outdated. Should I start calling you… 'Mom?'"

She drew out the word deliberately.

Melissa shuddered, and goosebumps rose on her skin.

Over her dead body!

Everyone knew Rachel had clawed her way into power by being a mistress. Melissa had zero interest in being associated with Sarah—much less being called "Mom" by her.

"Who do you think you're calling 'Mom?' You and your mother both climbed your way up using your wombs. I'm not interested in playing along with that disgusting farce."

"Is something wrong?" Calvin's voice cut through the air like a blade.

Melissa spun around, startled. Eric had wheeled Calvin over without her noticing, and several Larson family relatives were trailing behind.
