Chapter 96

As the evening sun dipped below the horizon, Serena stepped into the Jansen residence, 

The manent she walked in, her eyes landed on the man sining alone on the couch. 

Zach was dressed in a crisp shirt and tailored slacks, his sleeves rolled up just enough to reveal his strong forearms and a gold watch. He sat there in silence, watching her. 

The last rays of sunlight filtered through the windows, casting, long shadows between them, as if drawing an invisible line that separated two people standing on opposite sides of a world That was no longer the same. 

Silence hang heavy in the air 

Howard stepped forward, playing the role of the peacemaker. With a seemingly gentle gesture, he took Serena’s coat and hung it up for her. 

Serena eyed bis untusual behavist and casually slipped one hand into her pocket. 

In reality, Howard used the moment to say in a hushed tone, “We’re about to collaborate with Foster Group. You’ll have to cross paths anyway, so talk to him now and apologize to keep things smooth for the future.” 

“I refuse. I already said I don’t want any unnecessary ties to him” 

Serena had no intention of giving Howard the satisfaction. 

Just as she was about to leave, Howard grabbed her arm to stop her. 

“Enough with the nonsense! If you’d just have dinner with Zach and apologize, you can secure this deal. After that, you can do whatever you want in Jansen Group! 

“Besides, isn’t he your ex? You spent over a decade with him. What’s wrong with having a meal with him again? just help me out for once! 

“Stop throwing a tantrum like a dd Aren’t you afraid of being judged by your ex if you keep acting like this? Use your relationship with him, and get me that project!” The more Howard spoke, the angrier he became. Frustrated, he grabbed Serena and shoved her forward 

stumbled 

Zach shot up from the rouch and instinctively reached out to steady her, even though there was still some distance between them. 

After regaining her balance, Serena gave Howard a sharp glare. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that Rachel and Sarah were eagerly waiting for a show She let out a cold laugh, then pulled out her phone from her pocket and tapped the scen 

A moment later, Howard’s own words echoed through the room, crystal clear. 

“The your relationship with him 

As the recording played, Howard’s expression turned grim. He couldn’t believe that she had recorded everything 

“That’s enough!” Howard stormed forward, reaching for Serena’s phone 

However, the sidestepped him with ease. 

Caught off guard, he missed the step by the entryway and stumbled. Then, his knee hit the floor hard, and he screamed in pain 

Kachel rushed to his side and helped him up. Seeing his legs trembling from the impact, she turned to Serena in anger. 

“Senate’s your father! How could you do this to him?” 

Serena goreder 

If Howard hadn’t panicked, he wouldn’t have tripped in the first place. 

Seeing that Seema was unharmed, Zach slowly withdrew his hand. His gaze turned ice–cold as it landed on Howard 

“So, this is what it comes down to Mr. Jansen, instead of competing with Foster Group on merit, you would rather bacter your own daughter for a deal. If this is how Jansen Group operates, then I might need to reconsider our partnership.” 

The deal was on the verge of collapsing. 

Howard grimed his teeth as cold weat buke out across his forehead 

“K–No. That’s not what I mean! Serena was just being mischievous. She spliced the audio together and is spewing monsonal Serena, apologize to Mr. Foster right now,” 

Serena remained unmoved “Dad, you really must be getting old. Have you already forgotten your own words?”
