Chapter 293

Author: Maureen Green
"Let's not talk about the past anymore," Colin said. "We should be looking forward."

"But I can't help thinking about it." Gwyneth's voice was filled with grievance and reluctance. "If I hadn't left back then, the person by your side now would have been me, not Aspen."

"Gwyneth..." Colin didn't know what to say.

"I used to think about how wonderful it would be if we hadn't separated," Gwyneth continued. "But in this world, there are no 'ifs.' Once we miss our chance, it's just gone."

"No, we didn't miss anything," Colin suddenly said. "Aren't we together now?"

"But there's so much between us now," Gwyneth said. "So many people and matters are hindering us... Can we really go back to how we were before?"

"Why not?" Colin questioned. "As long as we still love each other, nothing can stand in our way."

"But Aspen..." Gwyneth hesitated.

"She won't be an obstacle for us," Colin said, his eyes suddenly turning fierce. "I'll take care of everything."

Meanwhile, Aren's injury still we

    Aren directly dialed one of his childhood friends' numbers. He asked, "Hey Kyle, what's this Friday night's gathering about?"Kyle Roberts was caught off guard by the question, but he quickly replied, "Oh, Aren, it's just that… We haven't gotten together in a while, and Yvonne suggested we all hang out."His tone was somewhat hesitant.Aren understood instantly. "I won't be going.""Huh? Why not? Aren, everyone's been hoping to see you," Kyle said, clearly surprised."I've been pretty busy lately, and I don't want Pen to get the wrong idea," Aren replied honestly.Kyle fell silent. Recently, quite a few rumors about Aren, Aspen, and Yvonne have been circulating in their social circle. Hence, he had a vague sense of what Yvonne was after."Aren, have you really decided on Aspen?" Kyle couldn't help but ask."Yes." Aren's answer came without any hesitation. "She's wonderful, and we're both certain about our feelings for each other.""Alright." Kyle sighed. "Then... what about Yv

    After hanging up, Aren tossed his phone onto the couch and walked to the window. The city lights reflected in his dark eyes. He understood Yvonne's intentions all too well. However, he'd already made his feelings crystal clear, and no one could shake his resolve. ...In the afternoon a few days later, Aren stepped out of the Aetheris Group building, planning to drive over and pick Aspen up from work. Just as he reached the parking lot, a pink Maserati pulled up beside him. The window rolled down, revealing Yvonne's perfectly made-up face."Aren! What a coincidence!" she said brightly, her expression glowing with surprise as if the encounter was truly unplanned. "Did you just get off work too?"Aren didn't stop walking and only nodded out of courtesy. "Yeah." "Where are you headed? Need a ride?" Yvonne offered eagerly, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him."No need. I've got my car," Aren replied, pointing toward his own vehicle not far away."Oh, right! Silly me!" Yvon

    A woman in a gown laughed and said, "We were talking about you, Yvvy. You're getting more beautiful every day, and when you're next to Aren, you two look like the perfect couple."A faint blush colored Yvonne's cheeks as she feigned shyness. "You're teasing me again. Aren and I just grew up together. We've always been close. That's all."Leslie sipped her tea and said meaningfully, "Yvvy, we all see how much you care—unlike some people who bury themselves in work and have no time for family."Another woman jumped in. "Exactly. I heard that Ms. Nicholls used to be Colin Fuller's wife. That's just messy. Our family does care about reputation, you know.""Right? Even though they're divorced, who knows what kind of ties still linger? I really don't get what Aren sees in that kind of woman.""I heard she's pretty capable, though. She supposedly saved Fuller Group from collapse.""But what good is being capable? A woman's real role is to care for her husband and family. She's a CEO and

    As Aspen and Aren walked side by side down the corridor, the sunset streamed through the glass windows, casting long shadows of their figures across the carpet."Mr. Caldwell's push into the new energy sector is hitting harder than we expected," Aspen said, her voice tinged with fatigue, though her tone remained steady.Aren glanced at her, concern written all over his face. "You've been working so hard, Pen.""I'm fine," Aspen replied with a shake of her head. "But I can't help but worry that Yvonne won't back off anytime soon."...True to Aspen's words, Yvonne hadn't let up after the family dinner. She appeared at Jefferson Manor almost every day.That afternoon, she brought a limited-edition silk scarf as a gift for Aren's mother, Bethany Walsh. "Mrs. Jefferson, I specifically asked a friend to bring this back from Fraince. I noticed the color of the one you wore last time looked really good on you, so you can alternate between them," Yvonne said gently with a sweet smile.

    "Ms. Stevens," Aspen said, meeting Yvonne's eyes. "Love isn't measured by status or title. If Aren chose me, he had his reasons.""Reasons?" Yvonne scoffed. "Isn't it just because you can help him run the company? Aren, when did you become so transactional?"Aren's eyes turned cold. "Yvonne, watch your words. Pen's ability isn't something you get to question.""I'm just worried about you," Yvonne argued, her eyes misting over. "You've always been exceptional. You shouldn't have to settle."Aren chuckled. "Settle? Being with Pen is the best thing that's ever happened to me."Yvonne's face turned ghostly pale. "Aren, you—"Aren interrupted her, "Yvonne, let the past stay in the past. Pen is my future, and you need to move on."Aspen felt the warmth of Aren's hand in hers, and a rush of comfort swept through her chest.Yvonne watched as the two of them walked away side by side, and a flicker of bitterness flashed through her eyes. She wasn't going to let this end here. Aren belong

    "It's definitely not easy," Aspen said, meeting Derrick's gaze. "But it's not impossible either. Just take Fuller Group—we were deep in the red last year, but we've already turned things around by streamlining operations, optimizing workflows, and integrating new tech."Carlos set his teacup down with a satisfied smile. "Ms. Nicholls, you truly are something. Aren's judgment is better than I thought."Aspen gave a polite nod. "Thank you, Mr. Jefferson Senior. I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do."Yvonne had been eavesdropping outside the study, and her expression darkened. She hadn't expected Aspen to handle the business discussion so smoothly. Aspen was nothing like the pampered tag-along girlfriend she'd imagined! Carlos suddenly asked, "Ms. Nicholls, if you had to choose, would you make a company bigger or stronger?""Stronger," Aspen answered without hesitation. "If it becomes big but isn't strong, it'll just become a burden. Take Fuller Group, for example. Our current
