Game Over No Second Chances

Chapter 259

Hugh's voice was cold, but his touch remained gentle as he helped Serena to her feet and led her out of the restaurant.

Zach's eyes fixed on their intertwined hands, a growing discomfort gnawing at him.

Serena was nothing more than Hugh's mistress, yet it seemed as if she had received all of his affection. Did she really not care about the love Zach had once shown her?

Frustration bubbled up inside him. Just then, his phone buzzed relentlessly in his pocket. Neal's name flashed across the screen.

"Why are you still wasting time in Javerton City? If you couldn't secure the chip deal, get back to Yellowbrook. There's a mountain of work waiting for you."

Neal rambled on about business, hardly giving Zach a chance to speak before issuing his final ultimatum.

"If you're not coming back to manage Foster Group, don't bother coming back at all!"

The call ended abruptly, leaving a faint ringing in Zach's ears.

He had failed to secure Larson Group's support, and all the major projects in Javerton City had fallen through. One failure after another had drained Neal's patience.

It was time to go back.
