Chapter 457

Author: Maureen Green
"Damn it! That bastard Stefan left behind so much trouble!" Zac cursed under his breath, his voice filled with fury.

Gwyneth glanced up at him, her voice trembling slightly. "Zac, keep your voice down. The lawyer is still here."

The middle-aged Benjamin sitting across from them adjusted his glasses and spoke calmly. "Ms. Sanders, Mr. Sanders, the most important thing right now is to stay calm. Getting emotional won't solve anything."

Zac spun around to face Benjamin, his tone hostile. "Stay calm? The evidence is about to be exposed, and you want me to stay calm? That quack doctor is utterly useless—so sloppy with his work!

"And he had the nerve to demand such a high price! I thought with his reputation, he'd have some real skills, but he turned out to be completely incompetent!"

Benjamin studied Zac, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes. Nonetheless, he maintained his professional smile. "Mr. Sanders, we'll handle Dr. Powell's situation. The current problem is dealing with any

    Gwyneth walked over to the couch and sat down, pouring herself a glass of water and taking a leisurely sip before speaking. "Even if she wants to cause trouble, she'd need the means to do it. Stefan's gone now, and there's no evidence left. What kind of waves can she possibly make?""That's true, but I still feel like... maybe we should have someone keep an eye on Aspen? See what she's up to lately?" Zac suggested, still feeling it was better to be cautious.Gwyneth put down her glass of water and pondered for a moment. Then, she shook her head. "What's the point of watching her? She's definitely searching everywhere for Stefan right now, so even surveillance won't reveal anything useful. It's just a waste of manpower.""So, what do we do? We can't just sit around doing nothing and wait for Aspen to come knocking, can we?" Zac became agitated, his voice rising.Gwyneth looked up at Zac, a flash of impatience in her eyes. "Why are you panicking? I'm thinking of a solution, aren't I?

    Gwyneth scolded him with frustration. "You fool! What's five million dollars? Five million dollars is just a drop in the bucket compared to the Fuller family fortune! If Stefan really wants to blackmail us, five million is just the beginning!"Zac was struck speechless by Gwyneth's scolding, and his face turned pale. He finally realized he'd been too naive and had oversimplified the situation.Zac panicked, his tone clearly fearful. "Then, what do we do now? Gwen, what should we do? If Stefan betrays us and rats us out—""Shut up!" Gwyneth snapped harshly, cutting off Zac's panicked rambling. "What's the point of panicking now? Things haven't reached the worst point yet!" She'd always felt things wouldn't go this smoothly, and Aspen would definitely not give up easily. However, seeing Colin becoming increasingly dependent on her and trusting her, her heart settled somewhat. ...At that moment, Colin sat in his office, frowning deeply as he stared at his computer screen. He mumb

    "Alright, Chet, let's split up," Aspen said, looking at Chester with gratitude. "I really have to thank you both for this.""Don't mention it. We're allies!" Chester laughed and patted Aspen's shoulder. "Besides, I can't stand how arrogant Gwyneth and Zac are either. We have to drag them out and make them pay!"Watching Chester and Aren working so hard for her sake, Aspen felt a warm surge through her heart. Having friends was wonderful, especially during times like these when she needed help....Meanwhile, on the other side, Zac was dancing around triumphantly in Gwyneth's room. "Gwen! I told you my plan was foolproof! That quack doctor is actually reliable—he left early in the morning!" He was so excited that his face turned red, and his voice became unusually animated. Then, he imagined Aspen's exasperated expression and couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Aspen and the others definitely came up empty-handed. They must be furious right now!" Gwyneth sat at her vanity ta

    "Gwen, Stefan agreed to leave the country and said he won't implicate us," Zac immediately shared the good news with Gwyneth.Upon hearing this, Gwyneth exhaled sharply, and her tense expression finally eased somewhat. She mumbled in relief, "That's good. As long as Stefan leaves, we'll be safe."However, nothing was ever this easy, and Gwyneth could not help but feel vaguely uneasy....When Aspen and Aren arrived at Stefan's clinic, the door was locked tight, and a transfer notice was posted on it. The clinic's interior was in complete disarray—medicine cabinets were overturned, torn documents were scattered on the floor, and the air carried a faint smell of disinfectant that couldn't quite mask the scent of lingering panic. "Gone just like that?" Chester looked around, his tone clearly surprised and annoyed."Looks like we're one step behind," Aspen said, walking closer to the medicine cabinet and crouching down to pick up a torn scrap of paper. The paper had some scrawled

    Aspen shook her head. "That's unlikely. If they could move Dr. Powell ahead of time, they wouldn't have waited until now to frantically send money."Chester was even more puzzled. "Then where the hell did Dr. Powell go?" "We keep searching. I refuse to believe he can disappear completely," Aspen said with determination, her tone brooking no argument....Meanwhile, Zac also received word that Aspen and Aren searched everywhere for Stefan. He panicked immediately upon hearing his subordinate's report. "What? They're actually looking for that quack Stefan?" Then, he rushed to Gwyneth, his tone frantic. "Gwen, this is bad! Aspen and the others seem to be looking for Stefan!""What?" Gwyneth's face changed, and the makeup brush in her hand nearly dropped to the floor. Her voice trembled slightly as she asked, "How did they think to look for Stefan?"I don't know either. Maybe they guessed something," Zac replied as he paced anxiously. "Gwen, what do we do now? If they find Stefan,

    "Gwen, where's the money? Stefan is pressing for it!" Zac exclaimed in panic, his face was written with impatience. After ending his call with Stefan, he had immediately rushed to Gwyneth like a debt collector. "It's five million dollars, not 500 bucks. Do you think I can just pick it up off the street?" Gwyneth stared at the bank transfer page with a pained expression, her tone clearly annoyed. Five million dollars was gone just like that, and her heart was aching. "Gwen, is this really the time to worry about money? If that old geezer betrays us and rats us out, forget five million—even 50 million won't save us!" Zac stomped his feet anxiously. He had no intention of going to prison, much less losing everything."I know, I know! Stop nagging me!" Gwyneth grumbled impatiently, but her fingers continued operating on the screen. As much as it hurt, she understood the logic that sometimes necessary expenses were needed to avoid disaster, and that was how she had to comfort herse
