Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 228

Arwen tried to break away from his embrace, but his arms only tightened around her, keeping her enclosed in his arms.

Unable to succeed, she sighed. "Now, aren’t fearing to make me misunderstand our intentions, husband?" Arwen said, her words clearly carrying the fake sarcasm.

Aiden’s lips curled behind her and he shifted a little more closer, leaning in at just the right angle to press a kiss on the back of her head. "You can’t fake your emotions to me, Moon. Don’t try it next time," he said and Arwen pouted, turning over shouter to squint her eyes at him.

"Who is faking here?" her tone came like a chide. But Aiden truly knew her better than she knew herself. "I am really angry."

Nodding, he said, "Fine, you are angry. Let me coax you to sleep. Tomorrow you will be okay." His tone came calm and tender.

"And what if I am not okay?" Arwen countered.

Caressing her hair, Aiden let her feel his gentle touch. "If you are still not okay, I will let you decide the punishment and take whatever you decide," he said, making Arwen turn around, in surprise.

"Really?" se asked as if not doubting into believing that. "Will you really take the punishment, I decide." More than getting coaxed, she seemed eager to punish him.

The light in the room was dim, yet Aiden could see the sparkle in her eyes. His lips curled up, reading her excitement. Tugging her strand of hair behind her ear, he said with a hum, "Mh-hm. I have never and will never lie to you."

Arwen looked into his eyes and squinted her gaze, letting him know she was serious. "Fine, then you better be ready to get punished tomorrow." Saying that, she no longer held tha facade of ignorance, wrapping her arm around his torso she embraced him. "Now, coax me to sleep."

Aiden let his lips curl up while his hands moved caress her hair gently, making her relax more and more. Under his care, Arwen didn’t realize when she succumbed to the slumber.

The next morning, at the hospital, Delyth was being prepared for the surgery. The surgery will be getting done in a few days but before that happens, there were a few series of procedures that were required to be completed.

While the doctor was trying to discuss her situation, she was just sitting there, least interested in cooperating with them.

Seeing her attitude like that, the doctor didn’t know what to do. Sighing, he turned to the nurse and asked, "Did you call, Mr. Foster? Where is he?"

The nurse nodded, replying, "I had called him. He said he is on his way and will be reaching here soon."
