Alle Kapitel von Kicking Him to the Curb: Kapitel 691 – Chapter 700

As gasps rippled through the crowd, Aren's voice cut through like low thunder, firm and clear. "I've successfully secured strategic investment from Aetheris Group for Fuller Group. The funds are available immediately, and our joint projects will move forward together."His gaze swept across everyone present, especially Colin, whose smile instantly froze. His carefully planned counterattack crumbled like a house of cards, and his face turned ashen.Gwyneth's smug expression also solidified into shock and frustration, as if her entire world had just collapsed. She couldn't believe what was happening."How is this possible?" she cursed silently.Louis Westbrook frowned slightly, clearly surprised by this turn of events, but then he still offered his congratulations to Aspen with a hint of concern in his voice. "Ms. Nicholls, congratulations. However, I must warn you that Colin won't let this go."His tactics are always underhanded, so be ready for some behind-the-scenes attacks."As

"A guy named Richard Pemberton, who works for Adrian Caldwell." Zac paused. "They're backed by a hot international venture capital firm and way more powerful than Aetheris Group."Colin's breath caught. "They'd help me?""Of course it's not free." Zac's tone turned cold. "They can inject capital into Fuller Group, help you kick out Aetheris Group, even push Aspen out completely."But the catch is, they want to take Aetheris Group's place, and they'll want a pretty big chunk of the profits."Colin fell silent. This was like inviting wolves into the house. But compared to letting Aspen control Fuller Group, it seemed like his only option."I want to meet him." Colin's voice was hoarse.After hanging up, Colin stared out at the night sky. He knew Richard's terms were harsh. It'd be like drinking poison to quench his thirst, but he had no choice if he wanted to get Fuller Group back.As long as he could regain control of the company, he'd pay any price. Meanwhile, Gwyneth carefully

Gwyneth had deliberately worn a new Chanel suit today, with her hair perfectly styled, looking exceptionally radiant."Colin, you were amazing just now." Gwyneth gazed up at his profile, her voice sweet as honey. "You had all those reporters eating out of your hand.""This is just the beginning." Colin wore a confident smile.As they passed Aspen's office door, Gwyneth deliberately slowed down and said loudly, "Colin, about the engagement party… I want to invite more media. After all, as the future Mrs. Fuller, I should make sure everyone knows who I am.""Whatever you want," Colin replied casually.Gwyneth smiled with satisfaction. When no one was around, she leaned close to Colin's ear."Aspen thinks she's so clever, but she's just doing all the work for someone else to benefit. She thought bringing in some Aetheris Group would save her position? How ridiculous."Colin just hummed noncommittally and didn't respond.In the elevator, Gwyneth admired her reflection in the mirror

"Not for now." Aspen lowered her gaze. "I'm just wondering if there's someone else pulling strings behind Colin's connection to them."Like Zac, who still hadn't shown his face."That's definitely possible." Aren didn't answer directly. "The immediate priority is tomorrow's board meeting. Are you confident?""Mr. Hensley and the others are on my side." Aspen rubbed her temples. "But Colin's got Momentum Corp's massive funding and his position as the Fuller heir. He'll definitely try to sway some of the fence-sitters.""Show a few of the veteran board members the key terms of that agreement anonymously," Aren suggested. "Let them see that what Colin brought in isn't help—it's wolves.""That's what I was thinking too," Aspen agreed."Pen, don't wear yourself out," Aren's voice softened with a comforting tone.His concern made her feelings even more complicated at the moment.…In Fuller Group's top-floor conference room, the atmosphere around the huge oval table was as heavy as

"Everyone," Aspen's voice broke the silence.She stood up, her hands lightly gripping the edge of the conference table. "Momentum Corp's Mr. Pemberton is, according to my investigation, actually just a subordinate of Adrian Caldwell's. And this Mr. Caldwell is known in international financial circles as a corporate raider."She picked up her tablet and transmitted several photos to the projector in the center of the conference room."These are three companies that Momentum Corp acquired in Southeast Allana. At the time of signing, everything looked great. They promised long-term strategic partnerships."She clicked forward to the next photo. "And this is what those three companies looked like two years later, with over half the workforce laid off, assets stripped away, now reduced to empty shells."Vince took off his glasses and cleaned the lenses. "Ms. Nicholls, is this information reliable?""It's completely reliable. It's been verified by Aetheris Group's legal department." As
