All Chapters of Kicking Him to the Curb: Chapter 551 - Chapter 560

Aspen's expression shifted briefly, a flicker of panic flashing in her eyes. However, she quickly masked it with practiced calm."Mr. Fuller, who told you that? How could our company possibly have cash flow problems?" she denied firmly, though her voice carried an almost imperceptible tremor.Watching Aspen's reaction, Colin became even more convinced of his judgment. He believed he had exposed the truth and thrown her into a panic. "I asked you here today to give you an opportunity. As long as you're willing to..." he deliberately paused, his gaze turning suggestive as he looked at Aspen, his tone full of implications.Aspen felt a wave of disgust rise in her chest at the implication, but she kept her expression neutral, pretending to stay composed. Her voice carried notes of anger and humiliation as she spat, "Mr. Fuller, please show some respect! I don't know what you're talking about, and Nicholls Group doesn't need your 'opportunity'!" Colin smirked as if her defiance onl

Aren's sudden appearance and the way he so openly defended Aspen had left Colin feeling deeply unsettled. He had a nagging feeling that Aren's identity wasn't as simple as the rumors suggested.Gwyneth noticed Colin's mood shifted so quickly these days, and her suspicion only grew stronger. Determined to uncover what was going on, she decided to quietly investigate Colin's activities and find out what he was hiding.A few days later, Gwyneth slipped into Colin's study and rifled through his files. Finally, she found a document labeled "Investigation Report on Aren Jefferson" in his desk drawer.Gwyneth's heart jumped as she quickly opened the file and examined it carefully. The document contained detailed records of Colin's investigation into Aren and his "background information".However, what puzzled her was that this investigation report showed Aren was indeed just an ordinary businessman with nothing particularly special about him. This completely contradicted her suspicions be

On the other end of the line, Aspen fell silent for a moment, as if she was shocked by Colin's words. Colin felt even more triumphant, believing that his offer had stunned Aspen."Acquisition?" Aspen's voice finally came through again, carrying a note of disbelief as if she couldn't accept this reality.Colin was even more convinced that Aspen was at the end of her rope and spoke with increased arrogance. He replied smugly, "That's right, acquisition. "I know things are rough over there at Nicholls Group. Rather than dragging it out and going broke, why not accept my 'generosity'? Sell it to me while it's still worth something. At least you'll walk away with some cash and not lose everything."His words were steeped in self-importance, as if he thought he was offering Aspen some grand favor. A self-satisfied smirk tugged at his lips as he added, "Of course, I'm always a man of my word. However, as for the terms of the acquisition..." He deliberately drew out his words, his ton

"It doesn't matter if dinner got ruined. We can have a late-night snack instead," Aren said gently, his tone full of indulgence for Aspen. "What do you feel like eating? Nipanese cuisine? Something local? Or would you like to cook while I help out?"Aspen couldn't help but laugh, her mood lifting almost instantly. "Anything's fine. As long as you make it, I'll love it."The two quietly discussed their late-night meal plans, filling the car with sweet, cozy warmth. Unlike their sweet intimacy, Colin's anger hadn't subsided one bit. He slammed the documents in his hand onto the desk with a loud bang. Gwyneth cautiously approached and asked with concern, "Colin, what's wrong? Who upset you?"Her tone was gentle, laced with just the right hint of submissiveness. Colin glanced at Gwyneth and cut her off impatiently, "Don't ask. I'm in a bad mood!"Startled by his outburst, Gwyneth bit her lip and backed off slightly, swallowing her frustration. But instead of reacting, she forced

"I'm planning to spread word that Nicholls Group's cash flow problems are even worse than he imagines, and that we might even be facing bankruptcy," Aspen continued with a hint of cunning in her voice.Hearing this, Aren's brow furrowed slightly with worry flashing in his eyes. "Pen, isn't this too risky? What if Colin really tries to kick us while we're down? We could suffer massive losses."Aspen looked at Aren tenderly, her eyes full of determination and confidence. "Don't worry, Aren. Everything is under my control. I know Colin isn't easy to deal with, but I've covered every angle. He won't get the upper hand."Her voice was calm and gentle, trying to put his worries to rest."And more importantly, I believe in you. As long as you're by my side, I'm not afraid of anything," she added, her voice full of genuine trust and dependence.The look in Aspen's eyes melted away the last of Aren's concern. It was replaced by something warmer—affection, admiration, and love.He gently b
