Hearing this, Aspen chuckled coldly. "Mr. Fuller, do you really think some things can be made up for?"Colin fell silent. Eventually, he said, "I'm not asking you to forgive me right away. Even if you still hate me, that's fine."His voice was laced with pain as he added, "I just hope you can give me a chance to start over."Aspen looked at him, a flash of complex emotions crossing her eyes. However, in the end, she still shook her head. She looked at Colin and said coldly, "Clearly, you still don't understand the situation, do you? I don't care how you found out I was here, but I hope after today's conversation, you'll understand your place!"She continued, "We're no longer what we used to be. If you push me too far, I have plenty of ways to kick you out of the company! Moreover, when you talk about making amends, do you mean with some flimsy apology that's supposed to erase everything you've done?" Aspen stared directly into Colin's eyes, her gaze sharp and completely devoid of

"This is Joel Glenn, an expert in smart home technology, and Professor Carter Hall, who has extensive research in AI..." Chester introduced each team member one by one, his tone filled with pride. Aspen looked at the impressive tech team before her, feeling grateful. She said sincerely, "Chet, thank you for always helping me whenever I need it."He walked to Aspen's side, his tone serious. "Don't worry about the technical aspects. Leave that to them, and you just focus on steering the big picture." Aspen nodded and gestured for the tech team members to take their seats. "Everyone, thank you for joining Nicholls Group. I believe that with our combined efforts, our smart home project will achieve tremendous success."She added, "Now, let's discuss the technical details of the project plan..." Aspen and the tech team members immediately launched into an animated discussion, the room buzzing with sharp minds and focused energy. ...Meanwhile, at Aetheris Group, Aren was also

Colin's face darkened, but there was nothing he could do. Still, the bitterness in his chest wouldn't go away. He muttered under his breath, glaring in the direction Riley had walked off. "Lapdog!" Just then, a voice laced with sarcasm cut through the air. "Mr. Fuller, trash-talking people behind their backs isn't exactly the behavior of a decent man."Colin spun around and saw Chester standing behind him with a grim expression. He narrowed his eyes, his tone unfriendly. "Chester? Were you eavesdropping on my conversation?"Chester let out a cold laugh and sat down across from Colin."It's not eavesdropping if you're saying it loud enough for the whole coffee shop to hear, is it?"His gaze was piercing as he locked eyes with Colin. "Funny, though, Mr. Fuller. Don't you think your tone toward Mr. O'Connor was a little... disrespectful?"Colin scoffed and glanced disdainfully in the direction where Riley had just walked off. "A lapdog who betrays his employer isn't worth respectin

Colin's face instantly turned deathly pale. He felt completely humiliated, as if Aspen had slapped him in public. "Aspen, I..." he tried to explain, but his voice wavered weakly.Aspen didn't give him a chance and said, "Mr. Fuller, times have changed. Empty talk doesn't cut it anymore."Then, she warned, "Instead of wasting energy on this nonsense, maybe you should focus on actually improving your skills before the world leaves you behind."Colin stood there humiliated. Shame and anger boiled in his chest, and his resentment toward Chester only grew deeper. However, on the surface, he could only suppress his rage and say submissively, "Aspen, I know I was wrong. Please don't be angry." Aspen gave him a cold glance and ignored him, turning to Chester instead. "Mr. Shaffer, sorry you had to witness this embarrassing scene. Let's get back to work." She completely dropped the plan to get herself a fresh brew of coffee.Chester nodded, casting a worried glance at Colin before fo

After returning to the company, Colin realized just how far behind he had fallen. Aspen had moved too fast, and he'd been out of the loop for too long. To make things worse, everyone on the project team avoided him like the plague, which meant he had no one to turn to for help.Afraid of being pushed out entirely, Colin finally swallowed his pride and dialed Riley's number. The phone rang for a long time before being answered, and a flat, businesslike voice came through the speaker."Hello, this is the CEO's executive assistant's office at Nicholls Group. May I ask who's calling?"Colin's grip tightened on the phone as he softened his tone, speaking with a politeness that even he found strange. "Riley, it's me, Colin." On the other end, Riley clearly paused for a moment. Then, his voice returned to its previous polite but distant tone. "Oh, Mr. Fuller. What can I do for you?" Colin tried to ignore Riley's cold voice and continued to humble himself. "Riley, here's the thing. The

Colin took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and once again lowered his stance. Even so, his tone carried a hint of suppressed anger as he said, "Riley, I'm asking for your guidance here, not coming to listen to your lectures. If you don't want to help, just say so directly. There's no need to beat around the bush."On the other end, Riley chuckled lightly, his tone becoming respectful again. "Mr. Fuller, you've misunderstood me. How could I not want to help? I just think there are some things you need to 'study' first before you can better understand them." Colin gritted his teeth, wanting nothing more than to hang up immediately. Nonetheless, he knew he couldn't. For the sake of the smart home project and Fuller Group, he had to swallow his pride."Fine, Riley, tell me. What should I be studying?" Colin's voice was practically squeezed through clenched teeth.Riley sounded satisfied with Colin's change in tone, and his voice finally softened a little. "No need to be so

That evening, Aren arranged a private meeting with Ian at an upscale Fraincian restaurant nestled in the heart of the city. The restaurant was elegantly decorated and had a quiet, sophisticated atmosphere.Aren was already waiting at a window-side table, his expression calm and thoughtful. Shortly after, Ian arrived punctually with a professional smile on his face."Mr. Jefferson, I've heard a lot about you," Ian began in flawless Chiruin, his tone polite yet probing. "You're even more impressive in person."Aren stood up to shake hands with Ian, and his manner was humble and gracious. "You're too kind, Mr. Bennett. You're the true business titan here." The two men took their seats as the waiter brought the first course. Aren got straight to the point. "Mr. Bennett, I'm deeply interested in Nicholls Group's smart home project." Ian raised an eyebrow with slight surprise. "Oh? I didn't realize you'd also be interested in the smart home market, Mr. Jefferson."Aren explained

"Mr. Jefferson, your feelings for Ms. Nicholls are truly touching," Ian said, his tone much softer now, with all traces of his earlier business-like manner gone. "However, business investments must ultimately return to their commercial essence," he continued, shifting back to business mode. "I need to see the long-term value of this investment."Aren nodded, showing his understanding. "You're absolutely right, Mr. Bennett. The reason I'm so optimistic about Ms. Nicholls' smart home project isn't just due to personal feelings, but more importantly, I'm confident about this project's market prospects." Then, he began analyzing the future development trends of the smart home industry from a business perspective and the advantages of Nicholls Group's proposal. "Ms. Nicholls' proposal isn't just a technological innovation, but it also incorporates humanitarian care and human-centered design concepts. This is extremely rare in the current smart home market," Aren explained logically.

Aspen quietly started investigating the source of the additional funding. She had Riley pull Dreamtech Corporation's latest financial reports and shareholder data and combed through every detail. At the same time, she used her various channels to discreetly gather insider information about Dreamtech Corporation's additional investment.The investigation showed that Dreamtech Corporation's financial situation was solid, and the additional investment seemed reasonable. However, she still felt something was off. "Could it be him?" she muttered, her brow furrowed in deep thought. ...The dim, cramped rental apartment was filled with the smell of mildew mixed with cheap perfume. Paint peeled from the walls, exposing gray-black concrete underneath, while several pieces of clothing—their original colors now unrecognizable—were carelessly draped over the edge of the bed. The worn wooden door creaked open, and Zac's figure appeared in the doorway. He wore a brand-new designer tracksuit

Zac smiled mysteriously and whispered, "I came back this time because I'm working for a mysterious boss." "Mysterious boss?" Gwyneth looked at Zac with confusion. "Who is it?"Zac spoke with deliberate mystery. "This guy is incredibly powerful! He's got serious resources! With him backing us, forget the Fuller family—even the most powerful people wouldn't dare touch us!" When Gwyneth heard about the "mysterious boss", a glimmer of hope rekindled in her eyes. She eagerly pressed him for more information. "Zac, who exactly is this guy? Can he... Can he really help me get revenge?"Zac didn't answer her question directly but instead asked, "Gwen, do you really want revenge? Do you want everyone who ever hurt you to pay for it?"Gwyneth's eyes flashed with hatred as she gritted her teeth. "Yes! I dream about it every night! I want Colin, that heartless bastard, to be completely destroyed! I want that old witch to get on her knees and beg me for mercy!" She hissed, "And Aspen! It's
