NovelEndChapter 313 Sarah suddenly spoke up. "Serena, are you so desperate to shut this down because you're afraid of taking the fall if it flops, or are you just worried that I'll outperform you and steal the spotlight?" "Do you have the guts to do so?" Serena turned back and fixed her with a cold, cutting glance. "A project you clawed your way into with less than honorable means... Are you bold enough to brag about it?" Sarah's words caught in her throat. She really didn't have the guts to do so. After all, Cole had just taken full responsibility at the breakup press conference, only to turn around and hand her a massive project.
Larson Group clearly didn't want to make too much noise about it, and as just a small piece in the machine, Sarah knew better than to run her mouth. Her plan was to keep her head down and finish the job quietly with Howard.

Cole was in such a rush to end things with Regina. Was it because of Sarah? No... something didn't add up. If Cole truly loved Sarah, why would he dump a near-dead project in her lap? The more she thought about it, the less it added up. But Serena pushed the doubts aside and spoke again.
"A risky, shady project that no one wants to talk about sounds like trouble. Are you two sure that you still want to go for it?" Howard glanced at Sarah, who had suddenly gone quiet. He hesitated. Just moments ago, Sarah sounded so sure of herself. What changed? This was a massive investment. They couldn't afford to throw money into a sinking ship.
Feeling Howard's eyes on her, Sarah bristled with frustration. This was supposed to be her big moment, and now she was getting humiliated by Serena again? "Why wouldn't we go for it? Cole personally introducedto this project. Do you really think he'd givesomething fake? He's the future head of the Larson family! "You couldn't get anything from Hugh, so now you're jealous I landed this deal. But if we walk away now, someone else will get rich while we stand around watching.
"Remember this, Serena. Fortune favors the bold. Keep tiptoeing around like a scared little mouse, and you'll spend your whole life bowing to people bolder than you!" What motivational quote hell did she crawl out of? Serena opened her mouth to reply, but Howard cut in first. "That's my girl. Now, that's the spirit. Fortune indeed favors the bold. We're in." "Dad..." Serena turned slowly, frowning as her fists curled tight. Howard was going to drag the entire Jansen Group down with him sooner or later.

Howard's eyes were stern and dismissive. "Don't callthat. Look at Sarah's fire, and then look at you, Mrs Larson-hiding behind caution like it's a virtue. You're just like your mother, always hesitating. No guts, no glory." The moment he brought up Amber, something in Serena iced over. Her eyes turned glacial as she gave a cold, bitter laugh.
"Jansen Group only becwhat it is because of my mom. Everything you have, she built.
e built. But if you want to spit on her nand ignore my warnings, fine. I'll be there when the whole empire you're so proud of comes crashing down." With that, Serena turned and walked away.
There was no saving someone who had already chosen to self-destruct. But when Howard and Sarah fell and they would-Serena would return to reclaim Jansen Group. Behind her, Howard's insults rang out. "Even if you end up like your mother, Jansen Group will never fall!" Serena's pace quickened while her nails dug into her palms. She would make sure she'd take back everything that rightfully belonged to Amber.
