Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 419

Grabbing her phone, Arwen dialled Aiden's number straight.

The rings went through but the call didn't connect.

Usually, whenever she had called him, just after a few rings, the call would always be answered. However, this time no one answered.

Arwen's brows furrowed and she pulled the phone back to check. And then she noticed the time. It was past midnight.

"He must have been asleep by now," she muttered to herself before pressing her lips in a thin lime. "What was I even thinking? It's so late at night and he needs rest after a hectic day."

With that thought, she kept the phone down and stared back at the laptop, recalling what she was calling him for.

She wanted to know if they had some history together that she had forgotten. But then she realized that asking wouldn't have helped her.

After all, it was not like she was asking him this for the first time. She had even asked him before, but he clearly mentioned that they never shared any history.

Could she be misunderstanding anything?

As she was about to reconsider her suspicion, she heard her phone ring.

When she checked, it was Aiden's number. She paused for a second, but then quickly reacted taking the call.

"Hello," she said, slightly awkward. "Did I wake you up? Sorry, I should have noted the time."

She realized when it came to him, she never thought enough. And it was wrong. No matter how comfortable she was around him, she was his wife and when it came to him, she should be extra sensitive. It was her responsibility to take care of him, the same as he did here.

"Hello, Aiden. You still there?"

She asked when even after a moment she didn't hear him respond.

However, just when she thought that the call was disconnected, she heard a ding of notification.

When she pulled the phone away to check, it was a video switch request from his side. Without taking another second to consider, she accepted and soon the screen displayed the video from his side.

At first, Arwen didn't realize what it was but soon her face flushed red and she realized that what she was greeted with was nothing but his firm chest muscles.

"You —" she closed her eyes out of shyness. "What are you doing? Why aren't you wearing your clothes?"

Aiden stepped back from the camera and stared at her, confused. "I am not naked," he said, and it was only then Arwen opened her eyes to check.

He was standing now at a distance, wrapped in a neat bathrobe. His hair was wet and he was drying it off with the towel. His chest was half covered and half on display.

Although his body was covered, still somehow to Arwen, it was giving a sinful temptation —one that was almost making her drool at the scene. Especially, given how loosely the robe was tied around his waist.

"Seems like my absence is making you feel depraved."

Aiden's voice jolted Arwen out of her trance and she looked up at him in confusion. _{freeweɓnøvel.com}

Given the focus with which she had been staring at him earlier, it was not hard to tell that she hadn't heard what he had spoken.

Sensing it well, Aiden repeated. "I said, with me not around for so long, you must be feeling depraved."
