All Chapters of Kicking Him to the Curb: Chapter 791 - Chapter 800

Colin was quiet for a moment. "Gwyneth, you should understand that now isn't the time to think about these things. Fuller Group is facing unprecedented challenges. I need to focus completely."Gwyneth bit her lower lip. "I've waited so long just to be with you. Now even Aspen has someone by her side, while I—""What's between Aspen and Aren has nothing to do with me." Colin's tone was cold. "Right now I only care about Fuller Group's future.""What about me?" Gwyneth suddenly became agitated. "Don't I matter? Colin, I developed depression because of you. Is this how you treat me?"Colin looked at her, his gaze complicated. "Gwyneth, I've never forgotten my responsibility to you. But the company situation must be resolved. Otherwise, what kind of stable future could we have?"Gwyneth was silent for a long time, then suddenly changed the subject. "Zac has been acting strange lately.""Strange?" Colin raised an eyebrow."Look at what happened with Cygnus Tech last time. He guarante

Aren had just escorted Aspen back to her apartment when his phone rang."Mr. Aren, Mr. Jefferson Senior requests that you come home."Hearing the familiar voice, Aren simply gave a brief acknowledgment and hung up.…"Grandfather, you wanted to see me?" Aren entered the study in Jefferson Manor to find his grandfather standing by the window, his silhouette slightly stooped."Aren, sit." Carlos turned around and gestured for him to take a seat. "You've handled the Fuller Group situation quite well recently."Aren was slightly surprised: "You know about all that?""Business matters don't escape my notice." Carlos picked up his teacup. "Aspen's stronger than I expected.""She's always been exceptional." Aren's tone was calm, but pride flickered in his eyes."Exceptional?" Carlos chuckled. "When you gave up Aetheris Group for her, I thought you'd lost your head to emotion.""Grandfather, I've never regretted it.""I can see that now." Carlos set down his cup. "For Fuller Group t

Aren had just returned to his apartment when his phone rang."Mr. Aren, Mr. Jefferson Senior would like you to bring Ms. Nicholls to tomorrow's family dinner." The butler's respectful voice came through the phone. Aren's grip on the phone tightened slightly. "Grandfather said this himself?""Yes, Mr. Jefferson Senior specifically emphasized that Ms. Nicholls must be invited."After hanging up, Aren stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing out at the night. He knew Carlos was going to test Aspen.Aren arrived at Aspen's office early the next morning. "Pen, there's something I need to tell you."Aspen looked up and, noticing Aren's serious expression, set down her documents. "What is it?""Grandfather wants to invite you to tomorrow's family dinner."Aspen's fingers trembled slightly. "Family dinner?""Yes." Aren took her hand. "He wants to meet you."Aspen was quiet for a moment. "Aren, I...""Don't worry," Aren said gently. "I'll be there with you."Aspen took a deep b

On the day of the dinner, Aspen wore an elegant gown and walked through the gates of Jefferson Manor with her arm linked through Aren's. As soon as they stepped into the living room, she felt several scrutinizing gazes on her."Is that Aren's girlfriend? She looks pretty average." Another voice whispered, "I heard she's the CEO of some small company. I wonder if she's good enough for Aren."The whispers came from all directions, but Aspen maintained her composure, smiling politely through it all."Aren!" A bright, familiar voice rang out as Yvonne strode over, cheerfully grabbing hold of Aren's other arm. "Do you remember when we used to play hide-and-seek as kids and you always hid behind that old oak tree?" Aren gently pulled his arm free. "Yvonne, it's been a while." "And this must be Ms. Nicholls?" Yvonne turned to Aspen, a flash of disdain flickering in her eyes. She added, "Aren never liked these kinds of events. I was always the one who convinced him to show up. Ms. Nic

"It's definitely not easy," Aspen said, meeting Derrick's gaze. "But it's not impossible either. Just take Fuller Group—we were deep in the red last year, but we've already turned things around by streamlining operations, optimizing workflows, and integrating new tech."Carlos set his teacup down with a satisfied smile. "Ms. Nicholls, you truly are something. Aren's judgment is better than I thought."Aspen gave a polite nod. "Thank you, Mr. Jefferson Senior. I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do."Yvonne had been eavesdropping outside the study, and her expression darkened. She hadn't expected Aspen to handle the business discussion so smoothly. Aspen was nothing like the pampered tag-along girlfriend she'd imagined! Carlos suddenly asked, "Ms. Nicholls, if you had to choose, would you make a company bigger or stronger?""Stronger," Aspen answered without hesitation. "If it becomes big but isn't strong, it'll just become a burden. Take Fuller Group, for example. Our current
