Semua Bab Kicking Him to the Curb: Bab 431 - Bab 440

Colin felt nothing but disgust and hatred for Aspen. Just hearing her name irritated him. So, he agreed to Gwyneth's proposal without hesitation. "I'll listen to whatever you say. Just do whatever you think is best."Gwyneth felt even more pleased seeing Colin so obedient to her wishes. Over the next few days, she began adjusting the company's business direction and secretly discussed the next steps with Zac.Meanwhile, Colin became increasingly dependent on both the medication and Gwyneth, immersing himself completely in this false paradise, losing all sense of vigilance toward the outside world. Now, whenever Gwyneth acted coquettishly, he agreed to anything she said. Later, Colin brought Gwyneth to a resort villa on the outskirts of the city. Nestled against the mountains and beside the water, it offered beautiful scenery and was far removed from the city's hustle and bustle, with exceptionally fresh air"Colin, this place is so beautiful," Gwyneth said dreamily, holding Co

Aspen flipped open the financial magazine, her gaze lingering on the cover photo of Gwyneth—all poised smiles, yet her eyes gleamed with unmistakable triumph."Someone's getting ahead of herself," Chester said with a sneer, his tone dripping with disdain."Fuller Group's recent activities are definitely abnormal," Aspen mused with a slight frown. She felt there was more to this than met the eye. While Colin wasn't exactly a saint, he wasn't a fool either. How could he suddenly allow Gwyneth to get involved in company affairs? Aspen turned to Riley and asked, "Riley, do you have any updates?" "Ms. Nicholls, I've been observing Mr. Fuller lately, and he... he seems genuinely unwell," Riley said with concern in his voice. "He takes medication that Ms. Sanders gives him every day. Now he acts like he can't live without her." "What?" Aspen and Chester exchanged glances, both seeing shock in each other's eyes. "How is that possible? How could someone as cunning as Colin become li

"Ms. Nicholls, we've got a situation." Riley burst into the office, slightly out of breath.Aspen looked up from her documents. "What is it?"Riley said urgently, "Zac was at the clinic again today, and he made some kind of exchange with a mysterious figure once more."Aspen's brow furrowed. "Mysterious figure? Did you get a clear look at their face?"Riley shook his head. "No—whoever it was took precautions. He wore a hat and a mask—he's completely unidentifiable."Riley paused and pulled out an envelope from his briefcase. "But I did manage to photograph their transaction." He handed the photos to Aspen.Aspen took the photos and quickly scanned them. The images were grainy, only showing two shadowy figures. One was clearly Zac, and the other, bundled up, showed no identifiable features."Any idea what was exchanged?" Aspen studied the photos, searching for clues.Riley replied with a hint of regret, "They were too far away for me to tell. But the transaction took place in

On the other end of the phone, Aren's voice became serious as well. "So soon? It seems they can't wait any longer." Aspen replied with a cold glint in her eyes, "We need to speed up. We have to get solid evidence before they close their net.""I understand. I've already arranged for the tech team to try hacking into the clinic's system. Hopefully, we'll find medication records and transaction information," Aren responded immediately."Make it quick," Aspen pressed. "We're running out of time."Hanging up, Aspen felt urgency seize her in a vise-like grip. Gwyneth and Zac were moving faster than she'd anticipated, leaving her with little time. ...Meanwhile, Gwyneth watched Colin with barely concealed triumph. Over the past few days, she'd clearly noticed Colin's mental state improving considerably. Although he still occasionally suffered from headaches and bouts of irritability, it was much better compared to his previous listless condition. "Colin, how are you feeling? Much

Megan took the medical record and flipped through it. Then, she looked up at Aspen. "Has your husband been treated at our clinic before? Do you have a patient card?"Aspen shook her head. "No, this is our first time here. Like I said, a friend just recommended Dr. Powell, saying he's particularly famous for treating headaches." Megan nodded. "Dr. Powell is our specialist here, but it's hard to secure an appointment with him. Let me check for you."Megan immediately turned around and began working on the computer. Aspen took this opportunity to observe the clinic's front desk more carefully. The reception area wasn't large—besides Megan's workstation, there were several rows of waiting chairs with a few patients scattered about, all looking somewhat unwell.The clinic walls were covered with health promotional posters and some doctor profiles, including one of Stefan. The man in the photo wore glasses and looked scholarly—it was hard to imagine such a person would do those kinds of
