Game Over No Second Chances

Chapter 396

"No," Hugh replied without hesitation. It wasn't that he disliked cufflinks. He just never paid much attention to them.

But as he looked at the two color combinations Serena had chosen, something clicked. While they were discussing business strategy a couple of days ago, he'd worn two suits in nearly identical colors.

Since it was a purely business meeting, he had rushed in and out without wearing any cufflinks.

Hugh said bluntly, "You remembered what I wore the other day."

"Yes," Serena replied.

But under his steady, unreadable gaze, she suddenly felt uneasy. She looked away, absently tracing the wood grain of the table with her fingertip.

"I know cufflinks aren't really a necessity. I just thought these two suited you."

Hugh had broad shoulders, a lean waist, and long legs. With those sculpted features, he had the kind of face that seemed almost too perfect to be real. She couldn't help but think he should carry himself with a bit more polish.

Before Zach's startup took off, he never hesitated to spend big on his appearance. He had a collection of luxury cars, gold watches, cufflinks, and lapel pins.

Serena used to enjoy picking things out for him. She kept up with men's fashion shows, hunted for new releases, and bought pieces she thought would look good on him.
