"Doctor, how's my mother?" Colin rushed forward to ask."The surgery was successful. The patient is out of danger," the doctor said. "However, given the patient's age and weak condition, she'll need to remain hospitalized for observation for some time."Hearing the doctor's words, Colin's tense heart finally relaxed. He exhaled deeply, feeling completely drained."Thank you, doctor. Thank you to your whole team," Colin said gratefully."It's our duty," the doctor replied. "Family members can see the patient now, but please don't disturb her rest."Colin nodded and entered the hospital room. Ellie lay quietly in bed; her face was pale, and her head was wrapped in thick bandages.Seeing his mother's frail state, Colin felt full of guilt and self-reproach."Mom, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have upset you," Colin said softly, holding Ellie's hand. "You must get better soon. I won't upset you again."Ellie seemed to hear Colin's words, as a tear slid from the corner of

Zac was trying to take advantage of the crisis, but Colin had to consider his proposal for the company's sake."I'll think about it," Colin said coldly, his tone carrying a hint of impatience.Seeing this, Zac's face revealed a smug smile. Colin was cornered—sooner or later, he would accept his terms.Meanwhile, Aspen began secretly investigating Fuller Group's financial situation, discovering some suspicious aspects.Fuller Group's cash flow was far from normal, and many projects appeared to have inflated profits. The crisis at Fuller Group was far more serious than it appeared on the surface."Aren, I found some interesting things." Aspen sent the investigation results to Aren."I've also collected some internal information about Fuller Group. Their situation is indeed not optimistic," Aren replied."Yes, it's time." A cold gleam flashed in Aspen's eyes. She would absolutely not let the Fullers off the hook...In the hospital, Gwyneth continued to play the role of the dutif

"Chet, Fuller Group's financial vulnerabilities have been thoroughly investigated. They're at the end of their rope now."Aspen sat in her office, looking at the report in her hand with a confident smile.Chester sat across from her, twirling a pen as he asked, "Aspen, what do you plan to do?" "I want Colin to know what it's like to despair," Aspen said coldly. A gleam of frost crossed her eyes."It seems you're really serious this time." Chester smiled. "I'll be watching with interest."At a charity gala, Aspen encountered Colin again.She wore an elegant red evening gown, looking graceful and noble, in stark contrast to Colin, who, while dressed in a suit, looked utterly exhausted. "Mr. Fuller, it's been a while." Aspen approached him first, wearing a faint smile as she spoke calmly.Colin looked at Aspen's confident smile, feeling a touch of displeasure. He said coldly, "Ms. Nicholls, you seem to be doing quite well lately.""Thanks to Mr. Fuller, I am indeed doing well."

Colin arranged to meet Aspen at an upscale restaurant. Sitting there, his heart was filled with anger and resentment as he watched Aspen slowly approach him.She wore an elegant red evening gown, looking refined and graceful. Her face bore a faint smile, as if everything was under her control."Mr. Fuller, it's been a while," Aspen said, sitting across from Colin. She mocked him, remarking, "It seems you haven't been doing well lately.""Aspen, don't be so smug!" Colin retorted angrily. "You think you've won? Let me tell you—I will never let you succeed!""Mr. Fuller, I never said I won. I'm just doing business." Aspen's tone was playful. "Though, it is rather pitiful to see you in such a sorry state."You..." Colin was so angered by Aspen's words that he couldn't speak. He clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could tear Aspen to pieces."Mr. Fuller, don't be angry. I'm just joking." Aspen smiled, her eyes full of provocation. "But I'll give you some advice. Just be mindful to

Gwyneth forgave Colin on the surface, but her heart was filled with hatred toward him. She hated his suspicion and his coldness.Meanwhile, Ellie's condition "worsened" again. She demanded to see Colin daily, forcing him to invest more energy caring for his mother. She could only keep her son by her side and away from that vixen Gwyneth by pretending to be ill.One day, Colin saw Aspen at the hospital. His heart filled with anger and resentment when he saw her indifferent expression."Aspen, what are you doing here? Have you come to laugh at me?" Colin roared, his voice filled with hatred.Aspen looked at Colin with a cold gaze. She didn't speak and just smiled faintly."Aspen, you vicious woman! You've ruined my family. You deserve to die!" Colin continued to roar, his voice full of resentment.Aspen still didn't speak. She just looked coldly at Colin, as if watching a clown performing."Colin, do you think you're pitiful now?
