Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 298

The next day.

After finishing her breakfast, Arwen looked up at Aiden. Though his features still looked all calm and composed, she could tell that he was having some conversation that wasn’t going his way.

Her eyes darted to look at his plate that he had barely eaten. She sighed internally and simply waited for his call to be done. Once she saw him hang up, she pursed her lips at him and said, "You didn’t even have your breakfast properly. Is there some problem going on in the company?"

Aiden shook his head and shrugged. "Nothing that can’t be handled," he said and then looked down at his plate, frowning slightly. "I am already done, and no longer in the mood of having anymore."

"Really?" Arwen eyed him before narrowing her gaze slowly but meaningfully at him. "You are not a kid, Husband that I need to coax you to complete the breakfast."

"So you want to have a kid?" he deadpanned. And that thought itself took Arwen off-guard. Stunned, she blinked her eyes a few times, as if trying to think back what she said that made him misunderstand her words.

"When did I say that?" she asked, befuddled.

"Just now, didn’t you?" He simply gazed at her as if she was at fault for forgetting it. Arwen was truly confused for a moment.

"I—" She was about to explain that she didn’t when she saw the hint of a smirk on the corner of his lips. "You —"

"What? You don’t want to have one?"

"Aiden, you clearly know that’s not what we were talking about. I was speaking about your breakfast habits and …" she paused briefly just letting him know that she wasn’t up for a joke at the moment, "... I was serious about it."

Aiden didn’t try to tease her anymore. Looking her way, he slowly raised his hand to cup her cheek. "And so am I," he said and Arwen was about to retort when he added to explain, "You don’t have to be so concerned about it, Moon. I have a meeting later and it’s set at a restaurant. So, I would be having something there."

He said even though that explanation worked in that situation, Arwen has been noticing for a few days recently, that Aiden hadn’t been having his meals properly.

"Are you sure you will have it later?" she asked, and putting on one of his warmest smiles, Aiden nodded.

"Fine then —" before she could speak, Aiden’s phone rang again.

She paused as her gaze darted to look down at his phone that he had been holding but wasn’t answering. "You won’t answer it?" she asked, not understanding why he wasn’t picking up the call. Given the name that she could read on the screen, she knew it was one of the clients he had been recently dealing with.

Aiden didn’t mind. Keeping his gaze on her, he simply said, "They can wait for you to complete first. Continue."
