Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 40

Delyth gritted her teeth, not daring to say anything. But she was satisfied with one thing at least —Ryan was finally free. With Arwen no longer in the picture, she could easily have him. A satisfied smile appeared on her lips as she realized this, but she quickly covered it soon and turned to look at Ryan, blinking her eyes pitifully. _{fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓}

"Ryan, Arwen broke up with you. Do you think it’s because of me?"

Ryan already had enough of the same topic. He didn’t know why, but every time it was brought up, it irked him to his core. When his mother mentioned it, he didn’t like it. Even when Arwen spoke about it, faking the resolve, he felt a burn inside. And now that Delyth was bringing it up again, he couldn’t take it anymore.

Enraged, he snapped. "I don’t, because there is no breakup, Delyth. Arwen is just cooking up stories. She will back soon to drag me back to the marriage bureau because that’s what been set for us. I simply can’t escape, nor could she."

Delyth didn’t like that adamant tone of Ryan’s voice. "But –" she began to speak, but before she could finish, Ryan cut her off, removing her hand that was clutching his jacket.

"Delyth, you should rest. I will go and talk to the doctor first." Saying that, he ignored whatever she was about to say and left.

Once the door closed, Delyth could no longer contain herself. Throwing a pillow to the ground, she punched the bed she was lying on. "Argh!! Arwen, how dare you! Why are you still there haunting Ryan? Why can’t you simply leave?" she screeched in anger.

"Fine. If you won’t leave that easily, I will make you leave. Let me see how far your arrogance takes you now."

Taking her phone, Delyth tapped the screen a few times, before putting it to her ears. When the call was answered, she asked, "Are the people still crowding outside the hospital?" Hearing a favourable answer, her lips curled into a smile. "Great. Then make a scene. I am about to post something, and I want you to make sure my message rightfully gets to all my fans."

After disconnecting the call, she fiddled with her phone again before setting it aside. A devilish glint crossed her eyes as she lay back on the bed. "Best of luck, Arwen You are in quite the ride next."

Meanwhile, Arwen was just stepping out of the elevator, about to leave, when she suddenly heard someone call her from behind.

"Arwen!"

Turning around, she saw her mother’s old friend. "Aunt Celia!" She greeted her warmly, walking over with a smile.

"Oh Arwen, my God! You have become prettier since I last saw you. How have you been? And how is your mother?"

"My parents have been well. Recently, they have been out on a business trip, but they will be back soon," Arwen replied politely and the lady smiled at her pleasant demeanor. "By the way, Aunt Celia, you are still here at this hour, is everything okay?"

"Of course. I am just getting off my duty a little late today. The mob outside has delayed all of us a bit. I heard some celebrity was admitted, and I think all this is for her."
