Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 124

Arwen’s brows furrowed as she read the words that Ryan had posted. Earlier, just hearing Gianna’s cursing told her something was wrong. But even so, she hadn’t expected this. It wasn’t because she thought better of Ryan —she knew him too well for that —but she hadn’t thought he would stoop so low.

"I so want to fly back there just to knock some sense into him. Should I book the ticket?" Gianna asked, clearly still fuming over the matter.

"No need," Arwen replied pretty calmly. "There is no reason for you to ruin your mood or schedule over something like this, Anna. Ignore it and focus back on your work."

"Something like this?" Gianna echoed, urging Arwen to reconsider her choice of words. "Wennie, if you haven’t yet, You need to check the threads circulating in your name. People are making you out to be the villain of some tragic love story when you were never part of it that way. They are throwing all kinds of contempt at you. Do you really think this is a small thing?"

"It might not be. But I don’t want to lose my peace over it, Anna," Arwen replied after a beat, her voice measured. "They can think what they want. I am not a celebrity whose life would get upside down facing some random people’s contempt. Their perspective wouldn’t affect me or my business even a single bit. So, why should I care?"

"That’s true, but …" Gianna huffed on the other end of the call. "Ryan knows the truth. How could he twist it like this?"

"It’s not hard to guess. He is trying to protect Delyth, no doubt," Arwen replied, seeing right through Ryan’s actions. "Since he hasn’t found a real solution to the case I have filed against her, this damage control post is the least he could d to distract people."

Gianna fell quiet for a moment, clearly mulling over Arwen’s words, Then, in a softer tone, she asked, "So girl, are you saying that you are not the least bothered regarding it?"

"I am truly not. At least, not a least bothered about what Ryan had said or what people were talking about," Arwen replied with a smile. "Besides, why would I be bothered when it’s easy enough to clear this up? It’s hardly a challenge."

"What do you mean?" Gianna asked, not understanding.

Arwen smiled with an unmistakable confidence. "Anna, don’t worry. I am not the kind of person who can be easily bullied. I will handle it in my own way."

"Do you have something in mind?"

"Oh, absolutely," Arwen said as a glint passed through her gaze. "I will remind people who I am and show them what they overlooked. If Ryan wants a story, I will give him the real one. One that he wouldn’t be able to twist."
