Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 35

Ryan avoided meeting Daniel’s gaze as he said, "She wouldn’t know anything. And even if she did, she would choose to believe me. After all, we all know how obsessed she has been with me, calling it love."

And Daniel frowned. "Aren’t you strangely confident about that, Ryan?"

"Why? Do you think otherwise?" Ryan asked, clearly very sure of himself.

Daniel shook his head, "No, but I do believe that even the strongest feelings expire when they are ignored and taken for granted." Downing the rest of his drink, he added, "Anyway, now that I have heard all of it, I would take my leave. I still want to go back and get some rest."

As he got up to leave, Ryan stopped him.

"Daniel, wait." Ryan said, causing Daniel to turn back. "I want you to look into something." But before he could explain further, his phone rang.

When Ryan glanced down, it was Delyth calling. He frowned but answered the call. Moment later, his expression turned ashen. "Which hospital?" he asked, standing abruptly. "Alright, I will be there soon."

Daniel saw him hang up and asked, "What happened?"

"Delyth’s been in an accident."

"What?" Daniel was shocked. He had arranged for the car, and the driver was highly experienced. How could an accident happen?

Ryan was already heading for the door. "I am going to the hospital," he said, and Daniel quickly followed.

"Wait for me. I will come with you." Daniel said, hurrying after him.

The next evening, Arwen was ready. Since she was moving from Gianna’s place, she didn’t have much to pack.

She was waiting for Aiden’s call when her pinged with a text notification. Glancing down, she saw it was from Gianna, and an affectionate smile curved on her lips.

[Gi-Anna: Wennie, I will be boarding the flight soon. But stay safe. Don’t make me worry too much.]

Shaking her head, Arwen replied to her: Have a safe journey, Anna. I will be fine.

Gianna’s trip has come up so suddenly that she had almost refused the opportunity. But Arwen knew how long Gianna had been waiting for this particular artist to resurface. Now that the artist had finally announced a week-long workshop, Gianna turning it down just to stay with her would have filled Arwen with guilt.

Eventually, Arwen convinced her friend not to miss the chance. Of course, Gianna hadn’t agree at first, but Arwen had her ways.

After exchanging a few more texts, Arwen was about to set her phone down when she felt it vibrate again. This time, the screen flashed with ’Husband♥️’ as the caller ID.

A slight smile, tinged with a blush, appeared on her cheeks as she answered the call. "Hello! Have you arrived downstairs?"
