Game Over No Second Chances

Chapter 388

Serena returned to her room to rest.

Not even two hours later, a maid came rushing over.

"Ms. Sarah and the others angered Mr. Eric and Ms. Saint. After a heated argument, Mr. Larson Senior grounded them all. He forbade them from wandering around and causing trouble on the island."

Serena lazily flipped through the pages of her book.

"Advice falls on deaf ears when someone is dead set on digging their own grave. But since Grandpa has given the order, have someone watch both families closely. Let the people guarding them know they're grounded and not to let them out unless it's an emergency. We don't need them embarrassing the Larson family any further."

They made Hugh work overtime cleaning up their mess. What a pain.

Serena casually mentioned it to the maids, and they treated her words like a decree. For the next two or three days, not a single member of either family dared show their face around the island.

Meanwhile, Calvin's complexion was looking a lot better.

He often spotted Hugh accompanying Serena on strolls or lounging on the deck chairs, chatting and laughing.

At night, through the windows, he saw their silhouettes moving back and forth. He tugged at Robert excitedly.

"It looks like Hugh has really found himself a good woman! They've only been married a few months, but they're already inseparable!"

Robert could only force a smile.
