Game Over No Second Chances

Chapter 5

Chapter 5

Clement suddenly said, "Ms. Jansen, have you ever considered joining Turner Group? I can offer you—"

Before he could finish, Serena's rejection rang out, loud and clear.

"No!"

Watching her slender figure disappear, a flicker of something flashed in Clement's eyes-admiration, maybe even a hint of intrigue.

...

Another task on her checklist was completed.

Serena rested at the hotel for half a day before heading back to the villa, only to find the garden in complete disarray.

Wendy was wearing Serena's clothes, draped in an expensive wool shawl, acting like the lady of the house. She was instructing the maids to uproot the well-tended flowers.

The moment she spotted Serena step out of the car, her eyes gleamed with satisfaction.

She hadn't even gotten the chance to send a video to provoke her, yet Serena had already rushed back, unable to hold her frustration.

Perfect.

With a bright smile, Wendy greeted her cheerfully. "Serena, what brings you back? Zach said you'd be staying at a hotel for the next few days. He told me to make myself at home."

She covered her lips and coughed softly. "It's my fault. My body is just so sensitive. I can't stand pollen. I even made Zach stay up late taking care of me. You're not upset with me, are you?"

Serena's gaze swept over the wilting flowers, her expression cold and indifferent.

After she left Zarena Group, Zach worried she would be bored. Knowing her love for gardening, he had gathered rare flowers for her. Some had been so delicate that it took her months to nurture them and get them to bloom.

The day the first flower bloomed, she had sent Zach a picture, telling him she wanted to use them for her wedding bouquet.

Now, they were nothing but rotting dirt.

"Good job. Keep going." She retracted her gaze and headed upstairs.
