Chapter 467

Penulis: Maureen Green
"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.

    "Chester, this isn't your business. Get lost!" Colin glared at Chester with hostility."Mr. Fuller, this is my friend's home. Don't you think you're overstepping by saying it's none of my business?" Chester shot back without backing down, his tone firm."You..." Colin trembled with rage, pointing at Aspen and Chester. "Fine, very well! Just you wait and see!"With that, Colin stormed out of the apartment with his men.…Aspen, Aren, Chester, and Riley had come into the secret room again at the abandoned factory.Riley pointed to an iron box in the corner of the room. "Ms. Nicholls, my people found this in the factory's secret room. Let's see what's inside."Aspen stepped forward and opened the box, revealing several medical restraint straps inside. The restraints were brand new but bore a series of numbers.Aspen picked up one of the straps, carefully examining the numbers, her expression shifting slightly."Are these... hospital-grade medical restraints?" Aspen asked with con

    Aspen's head snapped up, her gaze sharp. "What? The accounts are frozen? What happened?""I don't know. The bank said they received a tip that our company is suspected of money laundering, and police have frozen the accounts," Alexa said. Her face was pale, and her voice sounded frantic.Aspen's expression darkened instantly. She immediately grabbed her phone and called her lawyer.…At Aetheris Group, Aren stared at the news on his computer screen in the top-floor office, his face terrifyingly grim."Colin, you really can't wait, can you?" Aren sneered, his tone dripping with mockery.He grabbed his coat and strode quickly out of the office.…In the hospital VIP room, Gwyneth, who had been calm, suddenly lost control and began struggling violently."No! Don't come near me! Get away! Get away!" Gwyneth screamed, her body shaking uncontrollably while her eyes were filled with terror.She yanked out the IV needle from her hand. Blood immediately gushed out, staining the bed sh

    Riley carefully stored the copied files on an encrypted USB drive, then quickly cleared all traces of his activities from the computer. He pocketed the USB drive, his expression resolute and determined."Ms. Nicholls, this is what you asked me to do. I hope you won't let me down," he mumbled.…Meanwhile, Chester approached Aspen and Aren with his phone inside the coffee shop, looking somewhat grave."Aspen, I've got something. Dr. Powell is on the move," Chester said in a low, urgent voice.Aspen and Aren immediately looked at him expectantly."He bought a fake passport and plans to smuggle himself out of the country. His destination is Ackmeria," Chester said quickly."Ackmeria?" Aspen's brow furrowed. "Why would he smuggle himself to Ackmeria? Does Gwyneth have backup plans there?""Unclear, but one thing's certain—Dr. Powell definitely knows something, or rather, he's holding key evidence against Gwyneth," Aren analyzed calmly."We have to stop him!" Aspen said decisively.

    Aspen's gaze returned to the computer screen, watching the surveillance footage of Gwyneth leaving the villa with a deep and ice-cold expression."There's something odd with this factory," Aspen suddenly spoke, breaking the silence in the room.Aren immediately looked at the screen, carefully replaying the abandoned factory surveillance footage.Chester also leaned closer to the computer, squinting as he observed. "You mean someone's been active at this factory recently?"Aspen pointed to a corner of the screen. "Look here. Though it's well-hidden, the grass has been trampled down, and there are fresh tire tracks. This shows someone's been to the abandoned factory recently, and more than once."Aren enlarged the image for closer examination, his brow furrowing slightly. "You're right. It would be hard to notice without careful observation. Pen, your eye for detail is incredible.""Gwyneth is really cunning, choosing a place like this and thinking she's foolproof?" Chester sneered

    Tears streamed down Gwyneth's face uncontrollably as she gripped Colin's hand tightly, like someone clutching a lifeline."Colin, they... they were so terrifying..." she spoke in broken fragments. Her voice was choked with sobs, as if still experiencing tremendous shock.Colin's heart clenched as he patiently guided her. "Gwyneth, take your time. Tell me, what did they do to you?"Gwyneth closed her eyes and took a deep breath, seeming to struggle with those terrible memories. When she opened her eyes again, they were filled with terror and unease. It was as if she'd returned to that dark, abandoned factory.Gwyneth's voice trembled with fear. "They wouldn't give me food or water, and they... they beat me..."She raised her bandaged arm, her voice breaking as she continued, "They whipped me and kicked me... Colin, I really thought I was going to die, and that I'd never see you again..."By the end, Gwyneth could no longer control her emotions and broke down sobbing. Colin's heart

    Gwyneth was carefully settled into a pristine white bed inside the hospital's VIP room, now covered with a soft blanket.Her face was pale. Her arms were wrapped in gauze, and an IV drip was attached to the back of her hand. She looked utterly fragile.Colin stood beside the bed, his gaze never leaving her. His deep eyes were filled with worry and tenderness.The doctor, a middle-aged man wearing wire-frame glasses and looking quite serious, held a report in his hands as he addressed Colin with a grave tone."Mr. Fuller, Ms. Sanders' condition is... concerning."Colin's heart plummeted as he asked urgently, "What do you mean? Dr. Humphrey, what's wrong with Gwyneth?"Jeffrey Humphrey frowned deeply, his eyes behind the lenses looking grave. "Ms. Sanders has multiple external injuries.
