First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 191

Chapter 191: Chapter 191: Ruin Caleb Lockwood Financially

The spacious bedroom was silent as a grave.

Serena Jennings was silent, and Justin Nash was as quiet as a dead man.

When Justin saw her coming, his eyes brightened for a moment, but the deep sunken sockets made them look terrifying.

Serena poured a glass of water for Justin and directly fed it to him.

His parched throat received some relief, and Justin finally spoke first:

"They brought you here to persuade me..."

"Yes."

Serena admitted honestly.

There was no need for her to deceive Justin.

"Ha..."

A cold laugh escaped from deep within Justin’s throat.

"Do you want to persuade me to marry Cynthia Fulton as well?"

Justin’s emaciated face was terrifyingly gloomy.

"I’d rather starve myself than marry her... Why? Why can’t my persistence move you?"

"Because I don’t love you."

Upon hearing Serena’s adamant words again, Justin angrily swept everything off the table.

The items fell with a crash, missing Serena but hitting Justin himself.

"You’re so cruel, Serena... Why can’t you like me?"

"Because you can’t compete with Caleb Lockwood."

Serena’s words made Justin’s face change drastically.

"So it’s because of Caleb Lockwood, isn’t it? Do you still like him?!"

Justin weakly roared.

Serena did not answer this question.

She stood in front of Justin, face to face.

Justin weakly tilted his face upward.

In his view, Serena’s face was cold enough to seem like a different person.

"Caleb Lockwood... is the actual leader of The Lockwood Group. He has authority and decision power... And you? What do you have? The Nash Group isn’t under your control, and no one in your family listens to you... Now you’re even risking your life... Which woman would choose such a weak and incompetent man?"

As soon as Serena finished speaking, Justin started coughing violently, even coughing up blood.

But her icy expression remained unwavering.

"Justin Nash, in my view, starvation isn’t about your persistence towards me; it’s just your own self-importance... If you truly have any fixation on me, you should first gain control of the Nash Group, then swallow up The Lockwood Group, make Caleb Lockwood bankrupt, and only then would you be qualified to replace Caleb Lockwood’s position in my heart."

After Serena finished these words decisively, she turned and left Justin’s bedroom without looking back.

She thought... Saying this should have some effect, right?

Give Justin a goal, so he would want to live well.

As for whether Justin would really swallow up The Lockwood Group someday...

Serena paused her steps and shrugged with a smile.

That’s Caleb Lockwood’s problem to worry about.

Upon returning to the living room, Iris Irving immediately pulled Serena aside to ask:

"How is Justin? Did you persuade him to eat?"

"I don’t know either..." Serena shook her head.

"What do you mean you don’t know!"

Just as Iris started to get angry, a servant excitedly ran out to shout:

"Madam! The young master said he wants to eat; he even asked for some ginseng soup to be stewed to replenish himself!"

Upon hearing this, Iris immediately dragged the servant into the kitchen.

Serena felt there was not much for her to do here anymore. What she could do for Justin was only this.

Outside the villa, it was pitch dark.

Going back to the city at this time would be midnight, right?

Without saying goodbye to anyone, Serena left The Nash Family on her own.

In the living room, Cynthia Fulton sat on the sofa, took out her phone, and quietly sent a signal.

At this time, Iris emerged from the kitchen, full of smiles.

"Cynthia, you’re clever and sensible. You said to bring Serena to persuade Justin, and it really worked; you’re the lucky star of our Nash Family."

Cynthia also smiled.

Her joy wasn’t just from the future mother-in-law’s praise but because the plan taught by Claire Shaw should succeed.

It was late night.

Mr. Miller was about to leave for his tasks when suddenly, Caleb’s indifferent voice came from behind: 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
