Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 446

Ending the call with Eric, Olivia re-entered Selene's room. Her expression seemed more confused than before … like she had come to realize something she didn't know how to communicate.

"Did you inform Eric?" Selene asked as she glanced up at her assistant seeing her returning.

Olivia hesitated but then nodded. "Yes, I did tell him, and he said he would see what he could do. Your schedule had a lot of things and everything can't be put on hold. If we do, then it will come with heavy loss."

If it had been any other model, they would have panicked, at least for a few fractions of a second.

But Selene?

She didn't seem to care.

And seeing her unbothered like that wasn't a surprise for Olivia, after all, she was the rich heiress of Martins, one of the richest families in New York, and modelling was one of just a passing interest for Selene.

At one time, she might have put in her hard work and efforts to rise to the title of the top model in the industry, but those efforts were never ought of passion or some dream.

It was ought of some other reason —one that never came in the light of the day.

"Oh," Selene nodded. "Then I will leave it on him. I am sure he knows what to do." With that, she once again started scrolling through her phone.

Olivia stood there for some seconds, staring at Selene. In her mind, she seemed to be restructuring her question again and again because it was very clear in her expression. But no matter how long she tried to restructure it, she couldn't bring herself to put her question in a way that would hide her doubts.

In the end, she chose to simply ask it away.

"Ma'am, do you mind if I ask you something?"

Selene didn't lift her head up to look at her. Rather she hummed to cue her to go ahead.

"When you asked to cancel all your appointments and free us the schedule, you said it's because you are waiting to meet someone? Is it Aiden Winslow that you have been looking forward meeting to?"

As she asked pure hesitation was laced in her tone. She dreaded that she might irk Selene in the wrong way and then have to take the consequences that she couldn't afford.

After all, no matter how graceful and elegant Selene Martin looked, it was the mere pretense that she excelled in putting on. Beneath her pretense, she was as spoiled as a lady from a rich family would be.

But to her surprise, Selene wasn't at all irked. Instead, a soft smile lifted the corners of her lips.

She nodded, responding to the question Olivia had asked.

"Yes, it's him. So, be mindful when he calls. Don't reject it," she spoke giving one of the rarest kindest smiles Olivia had ever seen.

However, what surprised her more was not her smile, but the fact that it was truly Aiden Winslow.
