All Chapters of Kicking Him to the Curb: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

"I'm Sophie's mother! No one in this world loved her more than I did! How could I ever curse my own daughter? I would have rather died in her place!" Aspen laughed in fury, her voice tinged with despair. Perhaps this was what true hopelessness looked like. But the raw desperation and madness in her eyes were too real, making Colin hesitate for the first time."That's… How could this be?""How could it not be? What do you even know? Did you ever love Sophie? Did you ever once let her into your heart? She had bone cancer!"Her only wish in her final days was to have her father by her side. But what did you do? You were busy indulging yourself with this woman!"Aspen's eyes burned with hatred as she looked at the two people in front of her. She could accept losing her husband. But why did Gwyneth have to take away Sophie's father in her last moments? Why did they have to strip away her final hope?Sophie had been the best, most well-behaved child in the world. Time and time again

"Aspen, don't be ungrateful!" Colin frowned, and the fleeting guilt he had felt moments ago vanished in an instant.He had always thought of her as a scheming woman, but at least she had been rational. Now, she had completely lost her mind."Who's the one refusing to let go here? We're divorced, yet you're still clinging to me. What exactly do you want?"Did you only realize after losing me that you were actually in love with me all along? And now you want to get back together? Then what about your precious Ms. Sanders? What will you do with her?"Aspen suddenly burst into laughter, and her gaze was filled with disdain. The sharp mockery in her eyes cut straight into Gwyneth's heart."Colin, if you really love her, I can step aside," Gwyneth said softly. "I… I only stayed with you because I love you, not for anything else. If you don't love me anymore, you can just say so."As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes and spilled down her cheeks. She wiped them away quickly, as if s

Now that Colin was gone and they had gotten divorced, Aspen had no reason to keep this useless thing anymore.She removed the ring without hesitation and handed it over to Joseph. Her voice was calm as she said, "This is worth more than the apartment. Sell it, and don't ever contact or bother me again.""Pen, I knew you were a sensible young lady! I'm your only family in this world; don't worry, I'll always protect you. You've lost so much weight lately. Let me take you out for a good meal, alright?"Joseph's attitude shifted the moment he saw the diamond ring. Seeing his sudden change in demeanor, Aspen was reminded of her childhood.Back then, she had been closest to Joseph. She had followed him around every day, playing with him without a care.Her eyes then flickered toward the family photo hanging on the wall. Taking a deep breath, she hesitated for a moment before finally nodding in agreement.Joseph's eyes lit up instantly, and before she could react, he grabbed her hand a

A chilling sensation ran down Aspen's back, but she couldn't afford to think—she had to escape. She struggled with all her might, her body thrashing wildly.In her panic, she kicked out, her foot landing squarely in the most vulnerable spot on Isaac's body. The impact made him grunt in pain, and his grip loosened for a fleeting second.Seizing the opportunity, Aspen scrambled onto the table and lunged for the door. As soon as it swung open, the glimpse of freedom filled her with desperate hope.But just as she took a step forward, a brutal force yanked her back. A sharp pain shot through her scalp as Isaac's palm came crashing down on her cheek."You bitch! Do you have a death wish?""Help! Somebody help me! Let go of me! Get away—don't touch me!"Aspen had seen her chance, and she refused to let it slip away. She clung to the doorframe with all the strength she had left, her fingers locked in a death grip.She couldn't give up. She wouldn't!"Help? This whole damn place belong

The pain in Aspen's ankle was excruciating, but compared to the ache in her chest, it was nothing.At that moment, Aren pulled a phone from his pocket and handed it to her. "Your phone has been vibrating nonstop."Aspen glanced at the name on the screen and let out a disdainful smirk. She hung up without hesitation and tossed the phone aside.Where was he when she needed him? And now he decided to show up? What was the point?Colin stared at the disconnected call, his face stormy. Aspen really didn't know her place. She never had. Just then, one of his assistants, Anthony Seymour, walked in hesitantly, placing a stack of documents on the table."Mr. Fuller, I've thoroughly investigated everything. The death certificate, the cremation records, and the medical files—everything is here. Ms. Fuller… is indeed gone."As soon as he finished speaking, Anthony instinctively took a step back, wanting to avoid the storm that was about to erupt.Colin froze for a moment before snatchin
