Moreover, Gwyneth was the one Colin loved now. He couldn't betray Gwyneth's feelings for him.

"Mom, please stop," Colin interjected Ellie in a resolute tone.

Hearing Colin's words, a flash of disappointment and pain crossed Ellie's eyes. She released Colin's hand, slowly lay back down, closed her eyes, and said nothing more.

Seeing her dejected state, Colin felt a stab of pain in his heart. He knew he'd hurt her, but he had no choice.

He stood up and silently left the room, leaving Ellie alone with her tears. Meanwhile, Gwyneth anxiously waited for Colin in the hallway.

Seeing him emerge, she hurried to meet him, asking with concern, "Colin, are you alright? Did Madam Ellie give you a hard time?"

Colin shook his head and pulled Gwyneth into his arms, saying softly, "I'm fine. Don't worry."

Nestled in Colin's embrace, Gwyneth felt a surge of sweetness and happiness as she felt his warmth.

With you here, I'm never tired."After a tender moment together, Colin suddenly heard knocks at the door."Who is it?" Colin asked."Colin, it's me." Ellie's voice came from outside. "Open the door. I need to talk to you."Colin frowned and opened the door.

    Gwyneth was preparing dinner in the kitchen. Her hands faltered, and her expression darkened when she heard Ellie's words.Nonetheless, she held back her anger and didn't respond."Gwyneth, I'm just being honest—you need some self-awareness," Ellie continued. "Look at yourself. You've no figure and no skills. How can you possibly compare to Aspen? Colin must have been blind to fall for someone like you."Gwyneth couldn't take it anymore. She put down the knife, rushed to the living room, and shouted at Ellie, "Enough! Can't you stop? I'm not Aspen, and I don't want to compete with her! I am who I am. I just want a good life with Colin. Is that so wrong?"Ellie was startled by Gwyneth's sudden outburst, but she quickly recovered, becoming even angrier. "What? You don't like me saying the truth? Who do you think you are? You're nothing but a homewrecker! So shameless!""I'm not a homewrecker! Colin chose me himself. How is that my fault?" Gwyneth said emotionally. "If you keep t

    "Madam Ellie, Colin and I are over. There's no possibility between us anymore," Aspen said coldly. "Please don't come looking for me again.""Aspen, how can you be so heartless?" Ellie said in anguish. "Do you really want to watch the Fuller family fall apart?""Fall apart?" Aspen laughed coldly. "That's Colin's own choice. It has nothing to do with me."With that, Aspen turned and left, leaving Ellie standing there alone with tears streaming down her face."Ms. Nicholls, are you alright?" Alexa asked with concern."I'm fine," Aspen said. "Let's go.""Ms. Nicholls, who was that lady?" Alexa asked curiously. "She seems to be Mr. Fuller's mother."Aspen nodded without saying more.Seeing this, Alexa didn't ask further and just silently followed behind Aspen. Ellie began seeking Aspen out frequently after that meeting.Ellie's repeated "disturbances" became extremely annoying to Aspen, so she instructed Alexa to blacklist Ellie. No matter how Ellie tried to contact her, she would

    Colin's expression darkened upon hearing Ellie's words, his tone growing impatient. "Mom, not again! Can you please stop mentioning Aspen?"Ellie felt even more disappointed and angry when Colin spoke to her this way for Gwyneth's sake.She said emotionally, "Colin, how can you be so blind? Aspen was such a wonderful woman. Why can't you see her good qualities? Have you forgotten how much she sacrificed for you, for the Fuller family?"When Colin heard Ellie praising Aspen again, he could no longer contain his anger.He abruptly interrupted Ellie and scolded in an icy tone, "Mom, can you please stop? I've heard enough!"Seeing Colin standing up to Ellie for her sake, Gwyneth secretly rejoiced, though she still maintained a wronged expression.She said softly, "Colin, let it go. Don't say any more. Perhaps Madam Ellie is right—I'm not good enough for you. I'll leave now. You two should talk."With that, Gwyneth left the room with tears in her eyes. Ellie trembled angrily as she o

Gwyneth entered carrying a steaming bowl of soup."Madam Ellie, you're awake. I've made some soup for you. Please have some." Gwyneth's voice was gentle and attentive, and she had a caring smile on her face.Ellie glanced up at Gwyneth. Her eyes were cold, and she scoffed. "Who wants your soup? Take it away!"Gwyneth's smile froze momentarily, but she quickly regained her gentle expression.She walked to the bedside, placed the soup bowl on the nightstand, and said softly, "Madam Ellie, I know you're still angry with me, but I sincerely want to take care of you. I made this soup especially for you. It's good for your heal

    Aspen sat in her spacious office as sunlight streamed through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the documents before her.Aren stood beside her desk, holding a project proposal, speaking with confidence."Pen, I have several new ideas regarding the follow-up promotion for the Aetheris Group project." Aren's voice was gentle yet steady, carrying a trustworthy strength."We could try connecting online and offline approaches. We could launch interactive activities online, such as user voting on future community designs or initiating discussions on 'My Ideal Home' to increase user engagement and loyalty."Aspen listened attentively, occasionally nodding as her eyes filled with appreciation. Aren always approached things from fresh angles, opening new perspectives for her."The idea for online interactive activities is excellent—it can effectively expand the project's influence and help it gain more recognition." Aspen smiled. "What about offline? What plans do you have?

    Aspen's heart trembled. She was surprised Chester was so honest about his feelings.Looking into Chester's deep eyes, she said, "Chet, thank you. You're my best friend and my most trusted partner. I know we'll always be friends."A flash of disappointment crossed Chester's eyes, but he quickly concealed it. He smiled and said, "Don't worry. I won't burden you. I'll always stand by your side, supporting and protecting you.""Chet—" Aspen wanted to say more, but Chester interrupted her."Enough, let's not talk about this anymore," Chester said. "I have matters to attend to, so I'll be going. Remember, no matter what happens, you're not fighting alone."With that, he turned and left the office, leaving Aspen alone with her thoughts.…In the hospital, Ellie woke again to find herself in an unfamiliar room.
