Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 455

Selene was stunned for seconds. Her breathing grew shallow, jagged —until the cold, sharp beeps of the disconnected call snapped her back to reality.

She had tried her best to deny what Olivia had told her.

She didn't want to believe that Aiden truly had someone in his life … that he had married another woman that wasn't her …

But now, with Aiden confirming it himself —so bluntly, so unapologetically —how could she deny it any longer?

"Arhhh!" she screamed, hurling her phone to the floor. Her voice is raw with rage.

The screen cracked instantly, its pieces shattering just like her pride.

Aiden might have spoken gently with her, but his words cut through her esteem deeply, making her feel humiliated.

How could he choose to side with someone that's not her?

How could he embarrass her for someone else?

"No!!" she screamed again, throwing whatever she could grab in her hand.

Olivia flinched. But didn't make a sound. She simply stood there, watching as Selene lost control —again. Watching her wreck the room that was re-organized not long before, tossing things off shelves, sweeping her arm across the glass table until it crashed with a deafening clatter.

After throwing almost everything around, there came the laughter. It started low …trembling and cracked, but soon it rose —hysterical and unhinged.

Selene turned around, her eyes bloodshot, locking eyes with Olivia.

Before Olivia could understand what that look was about, Selene lunged forward and grabbed her by the arm.

Olivia tried to take a step back instinctively to avoid her, but froze mid-motion, realizing there was no door to escape to.

She was Selene's assistant. She had to take this —whether she liked it or not.

So, she stood still, letting Selene's finger grip tightly around her wrist, tugging her closer with desperate force. _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}

Did you hear that, Olivia?" Selene asked, her voice trembling with disbelief. "He … he said he is married. Can you believe it?"

Tears pooled in her eyes, but her tone wasn't sorrowful —it was manic.

"He had once said that he wouldn't marry anyone, and yet today, he simply said he is married to someone. How could he?"

Olivia looked at her, not knowing how to respond. Not because she was unempathetic, but rather because she didn't know how to draw empathy for Selene at the moment.

Yes, Selene looked betrayed, … devastated, even.

But Olivia couldn't call it a betrayal.

Betrayal only exists when there was a promise made … when there is something real between two people.

However, she had been following Selene for years now, and even she had no clue that there was something that Selene shared with Aiden Winslow.

It was only today, she saw her desperation. Her obsession.

From the corner of her eyes, Olivia suddenly caught blood in Selene's hands. "Ma'am, you are bleeding," she said, reaching to check her wounds instantly. And it was then she noticed, Selene had hurt her hand, which was bleeding profusely.

It was maybe earlier when she was wrecking the room, when a shard of glass cut through her skin.

"The wound looks deep, ma'am," Olivia said, already reaching for her phone. "I will call the doctor first."

With that, she went to make the call.
