Aspen didn't respond. She simply placed the plate of pasta in front of Aren and watched with a satisfied smile as he ate heartily."Eat slower, and be careful. It's hot." She spoke softly, very much like a tender wife.Aren nodded while eating, saying indistinctly, "Pen, you make really good pasta!""If you like it, eat more." Aspen smiled. "I'll make it for you every day from now on.""That would be great." Aren looked up at Aspen, his eyes full of affection. "Then it's a promise."Aspen felt somewhat embarrassed under his gaze. She lowered her head and said quietly, "Who said I was making promises with you?"Aren laughed heartily. "You say one thing but mean another."Aspen's cheeks turned slightly red. She glared at Aren and said, "Hurry up and eat your food before it gets cold.""Alright, I'll do as you say." Aren smiled and continued eating with his head down.Chester cleared his throat lightly, breaking the sweet atmosphere between the two. "Aspen, we should discuss busi

"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

"Colin, listen to me just this once, will you? For my sake, for our future, please get some rest for a while, okay?"She looked up at Colin with tearful eyes. Her pitiful appearance softened Colin's heart completely."Alright, I promise you." Colin finally gave in.Gwyneth broke into a smile through her tears and hugged Colin tightly. "I knew it. You care for me the most."Colin gently patted Gwyneth's back, though his eyes revealed complicated emotions. The situation at the company truly couldn't wait any longer.Aspen and Chester's offensive grew increasingly fierce, and Fuller Group's stock price continued to fall. Its market share was steadily eroded, and internally, morale was scattered with danger lurking everywhere.Colin needed to return quickly to take charge. Otherwise, Fuller Group might truly be destroyed in his hands. But seeing Gwyneth like this, how could he bear to leave her?Colin's heart was full of conflict and struggle. He didn't know what he should do. Just

Riley watched the scene before him and felt a wave of helplessness wash over him. Meanwhile, Colin sat on the couch, his brows furrowed. Gwyneth nestled beside him, looking utterly pitiful."Mr. Fuller, you really can't continue like this!" Riley's voice carried a hint of urgency. "You know the company's situation. If you don't return to take charge, Fuller Group will truly be finished!""Gwyneth isn't well right now. How can I abandon her?" Colin's tone was filled with resignation and exhaustion."But Mr. Fuller—" Riley tried to say more but was interrupted by Gwyneth."Colin, don't blame Mr. O'Connor." Gwyneth's voice was weak and frail, as if she might faint at any moment. "I know the company matters are important. You should go back. Don't worry about me.""Gwyneth, what nonsense are you spouting?" Colin looked at Gwyneth with concern. "Your health is most important. How could I leave you behind?""But..." Tears welled up in Gwyneth's eyes. "I don't want to hold back your car

"Colin, I feel terrible..." Gwyneth lay in bed with a pale face, looking weak and frail."What's wrong?" Colin quickly moved to the bedside and asked with concern."I don't know," Gwyneth's voice was filled with pain. "I just feel uncomfortable all over...""I'll call a doctor right away!" Colin said, about to get up and call for medical help."No..." Gwyneth grabbed Colin's hand. "Don't call a doctor... I don't want to go to the hospital...""But in your condition..." Colin looked worried."I'm fine." Gwyneth forced a smile. "Just stay with me... That's all I need...""Alright, I'll stay with you." Colin gently held Gwyneth's hand. "I'm not going anywhere. I'll be right here with you.""Mmm..." Gwyneth nestled in Colin's arms, a hint of satisfaction appearing on her face.Deceived by Gwyneth's affection and tenderness, Colin was completely unaware of her true intentions. He continued to be attentive and caring toward her.Meanwhile, Aren's health recovered quickly under Aspe
