He said, "Ms. Nicholls, Colin is extremely well-prepared this time. They've hired many experts and created a perfect proposal."Aspen replied, "I understand. Thank you for telling me this.""Ms. Nicholls, what do you plan to do?" Riley asked.Aspen said, "We'll face whatever comes our way. We need to be thoroughly prepared and prevent Colin from succeeding."Her team worked overtime on the bid proposal, staying late into the night every day to make their plan the best it could be. She personally supervised the team's work, demanding perfection in every detail and allowing no mistakes.Aspen exclaimed, "Great work, everyone! We must win this project!""Yes, Ms. Nicholls!" the team members responded in unison. Colin tried to contact Aspen again, but his calls went unanswered. He felt a wave of disappointme

Aspen had put a great deal of effort into this investor conference, working late every night with hardly any time to rest. Concerned, Alexa advised, "Ms. Nicholls, your health comes first, and you need to take care of yourself. You can't keep pushing like this."Aspen smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know my limits. Once we get through this busy period, I'll get some rest."Alexa nodded and left the study."Pen, are you still working?" Aren's voice suddenly came from the doorway.Aspen looked up to see Aren standing at the door with a gentle smile on his face. She asked, "Aren, what are you doing here?"Aren walked to her side and said, "I came to check on you. You've been too tired lately and need to rest."Aspen chuckled. "I know, Aren. Don't worry, I'm fine.""Pen, I brought you a late-night snack. I made it myself. Try it," Aren added, pulling out a thermos container from behind his back. Aspen looked at the thermos container and felt a warmth rise in her heart. She open

Faced with Colin's comment, Gwyneth pressed her lips together. He looked at her but ultimately said nothing more and returned to his room alone.After that, Gwyneth became obsessed with all kinds of homemaking classes. From Frainch pastries and Nipanese cuisine to advanced household management, the courses she enrolled in were diverse and occupied almost all of her free time.She worked clumsily in the kitchen, burning her fingers and scalding the back of her hands. Even so, she never tired of it. Zac frowned at the disheveled Gwyneth in the kitchen. "Gwen, what are you doing? Didn't you use to hate being in the kitchen? Why the sudden change?"Gwyneth carefully scraped the burnt cookies from the baking sheet, not looking up as she replied, "I'm learning how to take care of Colin. He's been so tired from work lately, and I want to do something for him."Zac walked closer suspiciously, picked up a charcoal-like cookie, and sniffed it. He nearly choked on the burnt smell. "Gwen,

Aren sat in his office, his fingers gently tapping on the desk, his gaze deep and distant. He picked up his phone and dialed a number.Meanwhile, Gwyneth's cooking skills improved dramatically. She not only learned to make various delicate pastries but also mastered techniques to prepare many gourmet dishes. She began preparing lunch boxes for Colin every day, filled with a variety of dishes that were nutritionally balanced and beautifully arranged. Colin looked at Gwyneth's carefully prepared lunchbox and showed a rare smile. "Gwyneth, your cooking skills have improved a lot lately."Hearing Colin's praise, Gwyneth felt secretly delighted and quickly responded in a sweet voice, "Really? I'm glad you like it. I'll make lunch boxes for you every day from now on and make sure you always have delicious and healthy lunches."Colin nodded and picked up his spoon, slowly beginning to eat his lunch. The food tasted good indeed, but his mind wasn't on the meal at all. He watched as Gwyn

Today, Gwyneth looked truly beautiful and gentle, reminiscent of someone from Colin's memory."Colin, what do you think of my outfit today?" Gwyneth affectionately held Colin's arm and asked in a sweet voice that carried a hint of nervousness and anticipation.Colin snapped back to reality and forced a smile as he nodded. He replied, "It looks good on you. Very suitable."His tone was somewhat dismissive, and his eyes wandered. It was obvious that his thoughts were elsewhere. However, Gwyneth didn't notice his unusual behavior and secretly felt proud after hearing his compliment.She had put considerable effort into today's appearance, not only studying Aspen's photos but also consulting a professional stylist. She believed that she would surely catch Colin's eye and make him completely forget about Aspen.The two walked side by side toward the venue's entrance. Just as they reached the door, they ran into Aspen and her team. This unexpected encounter caused the air to seeming
