Chapter 441

Author: Maureen Green
Aspen's heart sank. She wondered what Zac was doing at the clinic. Could he have something to discuss with Stefan?

She felt a growing sense of unease, knowing that Zac's presence would make her original plan even more complicated and dangerous.

Josh soon emerged from the office, his face showing a hint of apology. "I'm terribly sorry, ma'am, but Dr. Powell's afternoon appointments are completely booked. He really can't squeeze in any more time today. Perhaps you might want to consider seeing one of our other doctors instead?"

Aspen's face fell with disappointment, her voice tinged with frustration. "Oh, that's such a shame. I guess my husband won't get the chance to see Dr. Powell today after all."

Josh tried to comfort her. "Please don't worry too much about it. All of our doctors here are highly qualified. You could always schedule an appointment with a regular doctor first. Let them do an initial assessment, and then you can book an appointment with a specialist like Dr. Powell

  • Kicking Him to the Curb   Chapter 452

    Gwyneth hurled her phone to the ground, the screen shattering on impact. Trembling with rage and chest heaving, she cursed, "That bastard Colin actually suspects me?" She hadn't expected Colin to suddenly become so difficult and sensitive. She had thought he would always obey her every word, love her deeply, and never doubt her. But now, his attitude had clearly shifted. If he actually found something, then everything she had done before would be ruined. "No, I can't let that happen!" Gwyneth took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She picked up another phone and called Zac, who was just leaving the clinic."Hey, Gwen, how did things go? Is something happening on Colin's end?" came Zac's anxious voice from the other end.Gwyneth's voice carried a hint of panic. "We have a problem! He's starting to suspect me. He just called to question me about the medication and demanded I give him the doctor's information!" Zac's voice went taut. "What? He suspects you? How could t

    Gwyneth's voice suddenly rose, carrying a hint of panic. "Dr. Powell is definitely a professional doctor! Colin, don't let your imagination run wild. He was recommended by a friend I know well, and he's supposed to be an expert in treating mental health issues. I brought you to see him for your own good, so how can you suspect him like this?"Colin repeated the phrase, his tone ice-cold. "For my own good? Or for your own good?"Gwyneth's voice finally became uncontrollably shrill. "Colin! How can you say that about me? Don't you know how I've treated you? How much have I sacrificed for you—have you forgotten all that? Now that you're feeling slightly better, you start suspecting me and questioning me. Is this how you treat me?"Gwyneth's voice carried a sob, sounding utterly wronged. If this had been before, hearing Gwyneth speak in such a tone would have made Colin's heart ache, and he would have immediately apologized and admitted his fault.But now, his heart felt only numb and

    The show was about to begin. After Riley left, Colin sat alone in his office, his expression constantly shifting. He picked up his phone and dialed Gwyneth's number. The phone rang a few times before the call was answered. Gwyneth's gentle voice came through the receiver, as caring and considerate as always. "Colin, what's wrong? Are you done with work?" Colin took a deep breath, trying to make his voice sound calm. Not wanting to beat around the bush anymore, he asked directly, "Gwyneth, what exactly are the medications I've been taking? Can you tell me?"On the other end of the line, Gwyneth clearly paused, as if she was caught off guard. "Colin, why are you suddenly asking this? Didn't the doctor already explain it to you? They're meant to relieve anxiety and depression." Her voice remained gentle, but it no longer sounded as natural. Instead, her tone sounded deliberate. "The doctor only said they were for anxiety and depression, but he didn't tell me the specific drug n

    Riley knew he'd said everything he needed to say. All that remained was to see how Colin would think and act. The atmosphere in the office was so oppressive that it was suffocating.Colin remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking, his voice hoarse. "Riley, you can go now. I need some time alone." "Of course, Mr. Fuller," Riley said with relief as he quickly left the office.With that, Colin was left alone in the office. He sat behind his desk, his expression shifting unpredictably, the look in his eyes constantly changing. Riley's words had acted like a fuse, completely igniting the doubts in his heart. The anonymous text, Riley's reminder, and Colin's increasingly deteriorating physical condition—everything pointed to one terrifying truth. Gwyneth really was deceiving him. The realization sent a piercing ache through Colin's heart, a hundred times worse than any physical discomfort. He'd always deeply loved her, obeying her every word and considering her t

    Colin started to suspect that they might actually be hiding something from him. His mind was completely in chaos.Suddenly, he stood up and paced back and forth in his office, his thoughts in complete disarray. Eventually, he decided that he had to figure out what was really going on. So, he picked up his phone and dialed Riley's number. "Mr. Fuller, what can I do for you?" came Riley's respectfully familiar voice from the other end."Riley, come to my office right now," Colin said in a low voice with a barely perceptible urgency. "Of course, Mr. Fuller. I'll be right there," Riley replied.A few minutes later, Riley knocked and entered the office. He asked, "Mr. Fuller, you wanted to see me?" Colin looked at Riley with sharp eyes. "Riley, how much do you know about psychiatric medications?"Riley seemed slightly taken aback, apparently not expecting Colin to suddenly ask such a question. After thinking for a moment, he answered cautiously, "Mr. Fuller, I don't know much ab

    "Let's go with this message content. The wording needs to be subtle but suggestive enough to let him draw his own conclusions," Aren said, pointing to the draft text on his phone screen.Aspen carefully read through the message content and nodded. "This works. Given Colin's personality, this will definitely make him overthink." The message read, "Mr. Fuller, how has your health been lately? I hear you're taking some medication. Do you know all the ingredients and potential side effects? Some drugs can have unexpected effects when taken long-term. I suggest you learn more about them for your own health."Chester marveled from the side. "Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant! This indirect approach will definitely be a hundred times more effective than us directly confronting Gwyneth." Aspen smiled. "Let's hope Colin appreciates our 'well-intentioned' concern.""What about things on Riley's end?" Aren looked at Aspen. "I've already spoken with him. He knows what to do," Aspen replied.
