Game Over No Second Chances

Chapter 220

Facing Melissa's accusations, Serena was unfazed. She stepped forward, her nose nearly touching Melissa's outstretched finger.

"I've already asked to review the surveillance footage. And honestly, what benefit would I gain from disrupting Cole's engagement party?"

Melissa sneered, her voice sharp. "Oh, the benefits are plenty. If something happened to my son, your husband would continue to hold power in the Larson family. And if something happened to Ms. Arnold, wouldn't your sister be able to get closer to Cole?"

Serena didn't even flinch as Melissa's long nails left shallow marks on her nose.

Before Serena could respond, Hugh walked in, his gaze cold. "If I wanted to control everything, I would have handled it myself. Why would I have my wife resorting to these petty tricks?"

He stepped closer and gently pulled Serena back by the shoulder. Then, he turned his cold eyes on Melissa, his lips curling into a sneer.

He said, "When your son was out street racing, hanging out with his shady friends

at underground clubs, and during every moment you weren't watching him... Do you think I wouldn't take action?"

Melissa's confidence faltered instantly. It was clear she couldn't say anything against Hugh.
