Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 212

The next day, when Catrin descended down the stairs, she spotted Idris already at the door, ready to leave.

"Idris!" she called to stop him and at her call, Idris paused in his steps, but he didn’t care to turn around to look at her.

Catrin didn’t mind his indifference for she knew he was mad at her. She walked up to him, stopping just behind him. "You are going to the company?" she asked, even though she knew the answer.

Idris nodded, ready to resume his walk again.

"Wait," she said, stopping him again. "Why are you in such a hurry today? Won’t you have the breakfast first?"

Mr. Carl, who was standing there on the side, quickly spoke on the cue of Idris, his tone all polite. "Madam, Master has already completed his breakfast. He has a meeting scheduled early, so he was leaving for that."

Catrin frowned when instead of Idris, the butler spoke. But she had seen Idris cueing him to speak so she knew that Mr. Carl was just following his orders. "Idris, if there was a meeting scheduled early today, you should have told me about it. I would have woken up early as well." She then paused and added, "It’s fine, give me a moment. I will finish my breakfast quickly and go with you."

Idris didn’t speak immediately but looking at Mr. Carl, he dismissed him first. Giving a polite bow, Mr. Carl left. And once he was gone, Idris turned to look at Catrin.

"There is no need for you to accompany me, Catrin. I will go alone," he said, his tone measured.

Catrin’s brows furrowed, her expression darkening slowly. "What do you mean, Idris?" she demanded. "Are you dismissing me from work? Do you think you can do that?"

Idris looked at her and shook his head. "I am not because I know what I can do and what I cannot. I know what is right to be done and what is not, Catrin. So I am not doing anything that you are thinking."

The taunt was evident in his tone, but Catrin chose to ignore it to her good. She didn’t want to bring back the topic from the last day and make the differences between them worse. "Then why are you not taking me with you?" she asked.

"Because I thought you would have other things in your plans. After all, recently, aren’t you more busy plotting the things in our lives more than in our business," he said.

Catrin stiffened at his remark, his subtly accusation clear. "Idris!" she snapped defensively. "How can you say something like that?"
