Chapter 172 "I'm always ready." Serena remained composed and unyielding.
Shania's anger flared even more. "Alright! If you're really not afraid of your father, then cwithto Jansen Group!" She knew Howard didn't like Serena. Once they got to Jansen Group, her cousin would definitely take her side. Thinking she had the upper hand, Shania lifted her chin triumphantly, looking at Serena provocatively. Serena, unfazed, nodded. "Just don't start crying later, Aunt Shania." "Hah! Let's see if my dear cousin cares more about his real family-his own cousin-or if he'll actually take the side of a desperate, lovestruck daughter who ran away for over a decade chasing after a man!" The two locked eyes, sparks flying.
Without hesitation, Shania dragged Serena straight to Jansen Group, determined to make Howard take her side.

"Mr. Jansen, Shania Brown from Amber Group is outside-crying and demanding to see you. We tried stopping her, but she won't listen." Howard frowned slightly and instinctively glanced at Zach. He didn't want outsiders to witness petty family disputes.
But before he could say anything, Shania had shoved past the security guards and assistants, tically wiping away tears as she barged in.
She didn't even notice Zach sitting across the desk. Instead, she threw her handbag straight into Howard's arms. "Howard! Your daughter is trying to ruin me! She fired everyone in Amber Group, got rid of all the people I personally fostered, and is even forcingout! "She's paying severance to everyone else but refuses to givemy share... Howard, your daughter is trying to makehomeless!" She wailed pitifully and plopped down beside Howard, pounding his shoulder in frustration.
Howard, no longer as young as before, frowned and instinctively dodged her. "Shania, let's talk about this later. Mr. Foster is still here-" "Why should I wait? If I can't get justice today, I'll be homeless tonight!" Howard fell silent.
At that moment, Serena walked in. Her eyes instantly locked onto Zach sitting across the desk.
Zach stood up the moment he saw her.
"Serena, Amber Group... wasn't that originally your mother's-" "Jansen Group's internal affairs are none of your concern, Mr. Foster." Serena's voice was cold.

Without hesitation, she strode forward, grabbed Shania, and yanked her up. Tugging at the luxurious mink fur draped over her, she sneered. "You've already made a fortune through nepotism and embezzlement.
"If it weren't for the fact that you're related to Jansen Group's chairman, I chairman would've called the police right now and demanded you return the millions you stole. It would be entirely justified!" Shania's eyes widened in shock. She never thought Serena would actually dare to expose everything in front of outsiders!
She had barged in knowing there was a guest present-specifically because she was certain Howard would care about his reputation and go easy on her. But she never expected Serena to completely disregard her like this. How could she tossed aside Shania's pride so easily? Howard immediately stood up. "Serena! I'm in the middle of a business discussion with Mr. Foster. You and your aunt can-" "I don't mind." Zach leaned back in his seat, watching Serena with amusement.
As long as he could help her, he was happy to stay and watch.
