Game Over No Second Chances novel Chapter 151

A cold glint flashed in Wendy's eyes. She was still dealing with Serena, and now there was another woman in the picture?

Swallowing her jealousy and resentment, she put on an innocent facade and leaned in.

"Zach, this young woman has such an elegant presence. Did a headhunter recruit her as a senior executive?"

"No."

Zach casually handed her the documents to take a look.

"She's a violinist with the Luna Orchestra. Her performance at the last concert was exceptional. If she agrees to tutor you, it could really help elevate your skills."

Wendy froze for a moment. Then, a wave of wild joy surged through her.

So that was it—Zach was trying to pave the way for her!

In her mind, Wendy already imagined herself joining the Luna Orchestra, gaining fame, and eventually marrying Zach.

Overcome with excitement, she threw herself into Zach's arms, lifted her head, and kissed his cheek.

"Zach, I knew you—"

"You've crossed a line."

Zach's face hardened as he pushed her away and wiped the spot where she had kissed him. But when he caught the glimpse of disappointment in Wendy's eyes, he hesitated and stopped himself from wiping his cheek.

"I know you're happy, but be careful not to do things that could be misunderstood," he said.

Without another word, he turned and walked back to his room.

Wendy collapsed onto the couch, her fists clenched in frustration.

Crossed a line? How?

Zach had done so much for her. What was wrong with showing gratitude by kissing him?

Her eyes welled up with tears as a deep sense of resentment slowly took root in her heart.

It was well past midnight when Serena finally made it back to her apartment.

She knew once Wynne got absorbed in her work, there was no pulling her away. Still, she hadn't anticipated Wynne being so fixated on Amber's porcelain collection.

When Serena left, Wynne was still engrossed in her research, her eyes shadowed by dark circles.

Serena, in contrast, was drained and decided to head home early.
